Challenge Yourself
Every day should have one element of challenging yourself. Try making something new to eat or saying hello to someone.
The boys and I swam across the bay on this lake and swam back. Great challenge. Great achievement. Pick something every day that is outside your comfort zone and give it a go.

Be Present
If working, work. If playing, play. When listening in a conversation, be there and really listen. Hear what they are saying or trying to convey. It’s important.

Enjoy Right Now
Enjoy that you are alive to do this. Sometimes things are good and sometimes they are bad. But you are fortunate to be alive and doing any of it.
Others have died or were never born and can’t even have your bad times. Find something positive in what is happening now for you. Then smile for that element. At least you’ll get through things with a story from it. And it could possibly lead to something much better.
Enjoy right now. It’s all you have.

Missing The Moment
Things get missed, mistakes are made, time runs out. The picture isn’t always taken.
Sometimes we miss the moment. Although this can be quite upsetting, given the context, we must carry on. Time waits for no one. Get in front of the very next moment and capture the full essence of it.

Speed Bumps
There will be plenty of these in your life. And not always when you think you can handle them. They will arrive when you may not be expecting them or think you have the capacity to deal with them.
But you will be fine. Keep pressing forward with a determined, wry smile on your face.
Get yourself ahead of the curve. Then when the curve comes, you can deal with it from a position of strength. Good luck!

Stay On Topic
It’s easy to get distracted. There are lots of fun things to do. Plenty of easy things to do as well. Easy and fun are usually more attractive than hard and boring.
Stay on topic and you can rule your world.
Set up your environment to win. Make it easier and more enjoyable. Change your mindset. Be disciplined. Remain consistent. Persevere. Your success will taste so good. It will taste far better than the short term fluff that may have distracted you. Focus.

Find Someone Who Thinks The Opposite To You
If you’re agreeing with your news media’s angle all or most of the time, go find someone or a media that states the opposite. Yes, it will make you uncomfortable. But you’ll find out what nearly half the country think.
This will give you insight most others will never know. If you nod knowingly to your media all the time, it just means you enjoy your bias. That makes you half as wise as you could be.
