Life’s Chapters
Your life is like a book. It is filled with many chapters. Some have been written while others remain blank pages.
Although the blank pages may already have the destiny in place, it is not written such that you can read it in advance.
When a chapter is completed, take a moment to reflect on it. Appreciate the experience before moving on to the next chapter.
Though don’t dwell too long on what has come to pass. Life is short and you are best to continue your present into the future. After that brief reflection, begin immediately and dive in, just as you would start a new chapter of an exciting book.
Life is for living. Get going! Write your amazing life story.
Lock In
Find what you want and lock in.
Like is fleeting. If you have a strong desire, then go for it.
Exciting Future!!
We don’t know what the future has in store for us. However, we can influence things a little with positive intentions and mental imagery of the amazing life you’re going to be experiencing very soon.
I’m super excited!!
Plan Ahead
There are so many benefits to planning ahead. It will save you time and money. It also saves you energy and allows people to take full advantage of great opportunities.
Like a Boy Scout: be prepared.
The magic is often in the actual planning itself. You will recognise bottlenecks in advance and see how things work well before they need to.
Go on. Draw out your treasure map for the future. Plan ahead.
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.
Build Or Let Die
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!
Negotiations Often Require 7 Touches
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.
Why Wait?
If you want to achieve something, why wait five years to start? What are you waiting for? Start working on it right now from today.
Start with the idea and set aside 30 minutes in your calendar today to research it online. Book the specific 30 minutes in, say from 8:30pm to 9:00pm.
Yes, you’ll miss that tv show you kind of like. However, this small sacrifice will also prove whether you are serious about pursuing this idea or you only sort of want to do it.
Then, put 15-130 minutes a day into your calendar for the next 7 days so you’re clear when you are working on this. And then do it!
The End Always Arrives
If there is a beginning, there’s going to be an end one day. We just don’t always know when that will be.
