Food is a fuel, not entertainment. Use the best fuel you can by eating natural foods. Anything processed is obviously not natural.
Walk a fair bit. It’s a nice thing to do. Fresh air, movement, and sunshine are fabulous for your health and staying trim.
Develop good habits now. If you do, you’ll find staying fit quite easy over time.
Things are, events happen and situations occur. Sometimes we want things to be different and they aren’t. A real superpower is to be able to live with any outcome without batting an eye.
Acceptance is a critical skill to keep stress at bay and not waste time on things you can’t control.
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 you waste a lot of time on ‘nothing’ activities? Getting coffee, having a cigarette, calling people to chat and eating or drinking are some of the larger time black holes.
You think you’re working a 16 hour day, but what you actually get done could be done in 3 hours of work. The rest of the time is busy but doesn’t progress anything
Audit your day. Be honest. What could be eliminated, delegated or done more efficiently? Write it down and start doing it today!
Have a really detailed look around your bedroom. Is every single thing in that room how you want it? Clothes, pictures, dressers, wardrobe, laundry basket, bedside table and even the drawers that are in it. Does this all bring you ultimate joy?
If not, start moving a few things today. Then move a few more things tomorrow. Keep doing that everyday until the set up is how you love it. And make sure that it is also conducive to great sleep.
Then do the same thing with your bathroom, kitchen, living room, front room, dining room, etc. spend 5-15 minutes per day making everything how you want it.
Then your life will be forever changed!
You’ve got to build your relationships and your finances, as well as your health and calmness of mind.
If you’re not building, they will die.
Let’s build!
Yes, it’s true.
You don’t realise it, or accept that it’s true. But you are incredible, yes, I mean you.
You’re bright as a bulb and funny as heck. You’re just the one I’d want on a long, solemn trek.
You make me laugh and that’s a good thing. And you may not know it, but you make my bells ring.
When you’ve got a thought, you shoot guns a-blazing. Regardless of that, I think you are amazing!
Everything in life is so fascinating.
The idea that we are here and can read this and understand it is quite amazing!!
It is incredible that our hearts beat, bodies digest and lungs breathe, all without us even thinking about it. Whether we are awake or asleep, busy or at rest, our basic functions keep happening without us having to give any directions.
Bees make honey that we can eat. How does corn know how to grow from a seed?
Life is so fascinating!
When you begin a negotiation, start by thinking you will go back and forth 7 times or even more.
Don’t start out thinking it will be one and done. Begin with the idea that they will reject your first 3-4 offers. In fact, you can make the first, full offers such that they are very likely to reject them.
When you prepare for rejections and 7 touches, it makes it easier getting through the negotiation.
Yes.
Although there can be desperate and hard times, tough situations, emotional and physical pain, there is also the flip-side.
There is joy, beauty, euphoria, love, bliss and moments you want to never end with people you adore.
What you choose to focus on will determine where your life goes. The more you think about the negative, the more pain and suffering you’ll need to endure, if only in your own head.
The more you focus on positive thoughts and gratitude, the stronger, happier and calmer you will be.
What’s crazy is you get to choose. Your circumstances don’t have to change, just the way you look at them.
And for some masochistic reason, there are many people who prefer to complain, point out the downside, see fear in everything and be unhappy.
When you can just flip the switch in your head and focus on the positive and gratitude and feel better almost instantly, it seems wild to me to choose the opposite. (Yes it does take daily training)
What do you usually focus on? Be honest.
Isn’t life incredible!?
