Balance In The Universe

Posted on November 20, 2023

People can push one way and then, once they’ve pushed too far, other people push back toward the middle ground.

This happens when the left or the right push past the centre, more than they should. Like a rubber band, the tension increases the further it’s pushed beyond its resting point. Eventually it snaps back or breaks. Neither is a good ending.

This occurs on any discussion. Everyone will be fine if small steps are taken. But if people push too far beyond the comfort zone of the others, you will find a great deal of resistance. And that often leads to momentum in the opposite direction. Keep things sensible. Or you’ll feel the backlash.

Your purpose can change over time. It can be to provide for your family, self-actualise, bring peace to the world, explore and discover, teach or simply move something forward.

Think Like The Other Person

Posted on November 18, 2023

Perhaps it’s the hiring manager, the customer, an army general or the police that you are dealing with and you want to win over, understand or defeat. Try to stop thinking like you and what you want and try thinking like them and what they want.

This is an excellent exercise and helps broaden your mind and develop some insight, and maybe empathy, for other people and what they are trying to achieve.

These insights will help you achieve more.

Complete One Extra Thing

Posted on November 17, 2023

Zipping through your day, you may find you just want to go home and wind down. Stay disciplined and complete just one more thing. It can be something small that you’ve been trying to finish for weeks. You could also tackle that beast of a project you keep delaying on.

Either way, get one extra thing done each day and you’ll start feeling on top of the world.

Could You Do Better?

Posted on November 16, 2023

You probably could do a few things better than you’re doing them now. Do you want to put the extra effort in though? This is the challenge.

Most of us have the ability and runway and even desire to do more or be better. However, we also can feel lazy, uninspired or wonder what the point is and whether it is worth it at all.

Well it is worth it. Focus on building your discipline every day. It will carry you through the tough times, the doubtful moments and the significant challenges like loss of motivation, purpose or faith.

You can do better. Build up to it. You’ll be so glad you did. And may regret it if you don’t.

Avoid Problems

Posted on November 14, 2023

It is better to spend time in proper preparation than to spend time fixing a problem that could have been avoided.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Ask

Posted on November 13, 2023

Sometimes that is all you need to do. Ask for help, an item, for directions, for advice, or even a hand in marriage. There is a lot of power in the simple act of asking.

Success Habits Are Hard

Posted on November 11, 2023

Being unsuccessful is relatively easy. At least it is at first. Laze around, do little to no work and spend money you don’t earn or have. the consequences mean it does get much harder as the months and years go by though.

Building up your success habits is another story though. Eating less and better food takes discipline. Exercising or going to the gym takes discipline and it can be hard. Studying is rarely easy. Same with doing your work, dishes, and laundry. Saving and investing is also quite difficult near the start.

There are a lot of things you need to do to be successful. The sooner you get each one under control, the better off you’ll be!
