Find Common Ground
Great conversations find common ground. If both parties look for things they have in common, most often they will realise that there are very few things they actually disagree with.
If you begin with the belief you are miles apart, on all the issues, then you probably will be. Our minds tend to prove beliefs we hold.
But if you believe you probably have a lot more in common than you think, your brain will seek out those common points. And often you’ll find that it is true.
Be Someone’s Light
Make people feel good. Show up for others.
Protect Your Eyes And Ears
First of all, protect them physically. For example, use protective eyewear and ear defenders more often than you may think you need to.
Secondly, protect them from visual and audio that does not bring you joy, isn’t positive and doesn’t improve your life. Many people try to influence you with pictures, videos and podcasts or broadcasts and you must be mindful that you are not being brought on a suspicious journey.
Find praise and appreciation. Look for positive and respectful conversations. Seek future oriented and helpful people.
Organisation
If you can be organised and keep files and rooms tidy, you will be happier for it.
Pay someone to help you get, or stay, on top of it.
You’ll free your mind and be able to find things easily.
Happy Mother’s Day!
To all the fabulous Mom’s out there, (and particularly mine), enjoy your well deserved day.
Be Consistent
Avoid being hypocritical. Become self aware. Notice when you’re doing something you tell others not too.
Reflect
Reflect on your success. Reflect on your strengths. Find areas in which you wish to improve. Then make those improvements swiftly and consistently.
Assess Quickly
When faced with a problem or opportunity, assess it quickly. Most things are simple. They take longer because we complicate matters. We are especially good at this when we don’t want to do the obvious and efficient thing.
Do Great Work
If you’re not delighted by the work you do, figure out why. You should be delighted.
Request What You Desire
Be clear. Be firm. Be happy.
Ask. It’s the best chance for success that you have.
