Be Yourself
There are lots of people to be these days and the best one is to be yourself.
0
Be More Curious
It’s easy to think we know so much. Yet, we know very little. We extrapolate, generalise, use bias and guess quite a bit.
We hurry people through their speech, usually just to say our bit. We aren’t that interested in what the other person has to say. We have our view and want to express that.
Yet things can dramatically improve if we just get more curious. Listen patiently to the person speaking. Understand their current mindset. Get the context in perspective. Listen to their words and emphasis.
You will learn a lot. You will improve your understanding. Your communication will improve. And you’ll become a better person.

Minimalist
The less you have, the less admin you have. The more you have, the more you need a family office or house manager.
Regardless, I feel the more minimalist you become, the happier you will be.

Support Your Team
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.

Complete Projects
It’s so easy to start projects. But completing projects can be a different matter.
We need to say no to most project proposals. They don’t bring us enough joy and often remove joy as they linger unfinished. They remind us that we have so much to do and create unnecessary stress in our lives.
Take on fewer projects. Start fewer projects. Complete more projects.
This is how you get that Winning feeling.

Coordination
Coordinate your plans. Sync your watches. Plan your days.
It is always useful to ensure full coordination when preparing a meeting, event or assembly.
Coordination will determine if you have a good event or great event. So get communicating.

Life Is Fun
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
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!
