If you hit a low point and your mind starts to stall in the negative, you are best to resist those thoughts and flood your mind with positive words.
It can be a challenge to do it, but if you don’t pull up, you can spiral into a negative oblivion.
Repeat favourite words and people. Remind yourself, repeatedly, that you are a good and worthy person.
The battle for your mind can be won by you alone.
Learning without action is like not learning at all. You need to put your knowledge into action, or why did you spend the time to acquire the action in the first place?
Take massive action immediately and start to gather momentum toward your goal. Then put habits in place to maintain or intensify the momentum.
Learn more and take more action. Your life will be unrecognisable!
You need to repeat new ideas, thoughts and habits many times before they lock in.
Do the work. Do the reps.
Smile. Chin up. Be positive. Do your best.
Keep shining.
Eight billion people on the planet. I assume most have good intentions. They want to work, make some money, pay for their survival and enjoy a little.
That is why the world is pretty peaceful. Especially when compared to thousands of years of history.
There will be people with bad intentions, of course. They will be like that for a short period (revenge, retribution, immediate survival), or, even fewer, will have evil intentions as their life-long philosophy.
Be mindful of those people and the moments others go briefly rogue. Generally though, most people are guided by good intentions.
Appreciate and take care of your things. Look after them. Place them back where they belong so you can easily find them every time you need them.
How much is enough? One car? 10? An all you can eat salad bar, sounds great, but is it more than enough?
How much is enough for you? Regarding anything. Stop and assess this now.
An oldie but a goodie. Once the thing has happened, it’s done. Accept and move on. You can’t undo a car accident. So as long as it is only a fender bender, we need to take these in our stride.
Complain less. Keep your mind focused on what amazing would look like. What do you want? Not what you will settle for.
This is hard for most people. People know what they don’t want or what they are fine with. But it often takes some serious inner work to figure out what you truly want. Not what you’re supposed to want, but really, actually want.
Stop complaining and focusing on past grievances. Bygones.
Keep your mind focused on the future and the amazing components of your amazing life. You get what you think about most of the time.
Think slim. Think wealthy. Think kindness.
There are lots of great things to think about. Think about those things and those things exclusively.
Try to have as many of these moments as you can. If you can get up from an encounter with someone and feel that it was “time well spent” then you are winning!
