You are what you think about. Happy thoughts? Sad thoughts? Fears? Success?
Stop once a day and think about what you’ve let run loose in your mind. Be mindful.
Escort your negative, fearful thoughts to the door and close it. If there was something to learn or be aware of, take that, but don’t dwell.
Look for positive, encouraging and inspiring thoughts. Dwell on those all day.
Make sure your food for thought is a healthy meal!
Get it down on paper. Start with 35 years from now. Note down what you’ll have done, been, seen and have. Write it like it came true.
You’ll start to focus on these points every day. Keep reading them and rewriting them. Soon they’ll start to appear in your life. You will be in awe, but keep going.
Make a list in advance.
You’ll feel the power as you write it.
You’ll love the feeling as you execute down it.
There’s rarely a good reason to boo, demonise, slander or outrage over the opposing team. The best thing to do is get positive about your own team, celebrate their strengths and wins, and cheer them on.
The positive focus will impact you in a good way. The negative focus will impact you in a less good way. Don’t ever focus on what you don’t want to become. Always focus on where you want to go, how you want to be and in a positive way.
You become what you focus on.
You have less time than you think!
Be playful. Smile. Assume the best. Or assume the person is having a difficult day or year.
Most people are good natured. Often a smile, gentle jest, easy laugh or simple, “I hear that” can lift a person out of the ditch if despair and get them back into the game of life.
Be the person with a better plus-minus* ratio in life than anyone else you know. Don’t let great opportunities pass you by. Be cheerful – it’s contagious.
*Do you make more people smile after they interact with you or do more people get grumpy?Your goal is to make more positive impacts than negative ones!
Life is fun, act like it!
Plan your day the night before. Block time in your diary for all the essential things you must do tomorrow. From wake up, to shower and dress, eat three times, and two must-do essential things, block the times when you’ll be doing these things. Be realistic with the timing too.
Get better at selecting one or two essential items to prioritise and get better at estimating the time and other resources required for success.
Then you’ll be on the road to winning!
Whether it’s because of a person you met, event you could last minute attend or any other positive chance encounter, soak it up and enjoy!
Think about it. What really excites you? What would you do even if you didn’t need the money? Figure this out, without too much thought. Then pursue this activity with all your time and energy.
