Irrational Fears

Posted on September 20, 2023

Is being afraid of flying an irrational fear? It feels very real, and even terrifying, for some people. Even though statistically you have a greater chance of being injured or dying while on the ground, if you focus on that one crash you heard of, and assume you’ll suffer the same fate, you can work yourself up into a frenzy.

Alternatively, if you start to focus on the statistical probabilities of a successful flight, and visualise that success, even through some turbulence and some bumps on touchdown, you can overcome your mental fear.

Relaxing and deep breathing can help. Visualisation is great. Positive reinforcement is very helpful too. With time and effort you can train your mind to overcome anything.

You may have to start with one. And get really good at it. Then move on to another and build that into your day. It can take some time. Stick with it. It will be worth it over the years.

Get Your Costs Down

Posted on September 14, 2023

If you would like more calm in your life, then get your costs down. Most of what you buy could be foregone or purchased with a cheaper alternative.

This goes for clothes especially but also works for food, travel and entertainment.

Decision Making Is A Superpower

Posted on September 11, 2023

Those who can make quick decisions will succeed sooner in life. You can usually change a decision if you need to later. However, making a decision is critical.

Too many people prevaricate and hope they won’t have to make the tough decisions. Sometimes even easy decisions, like ordering dinner at a restaurant, can take too much time and thought power.

Practice making quick decisions each day this week. It’s a muscle that you can develop.

Plan!

Posted on September 10, 2023

Few people want to plan for later life and ageing but the sooner you do it, the easier and better it is.

Don’t leave the tough decisions about DNRs, funeral arrangements, inheritance, finances, POA, care, assisted living, long term care, and medical decisions to the last minute. You’ll be too tired and disinterested to do it. You might not be thinking straight or you may have dementia.

Plan ahead while you’re younger and energetic and clear headed. You can thank me later.

FYI: Amazon has a deep sale on and my book can be purchased for the price of a coffee but could help you become a happy millionaire! (Great value!!)

Grab a copy or two as gifts for some friends and family! At these prices they won’t last long. I just saw a half dozen purchased in the last half an hour. And there are now less than a dozen left! Act now!

Do Things Before You’re Asked

Posted on September 8, 2023

People are extra grateful and appreciative when you do things without them needing to tell you or remind you.

Receiving flowers or a gift has a lot more impact if you haven’t had to ask for them. Same with doing dishes and being romantic. What could you be more proactive about?

Get Help While You Can

Posted on September 3, 2023

Whether you need help at work, at home or for personal reasons, arrange that help as soon as you can.

The earlier the better and it will help you grow faster, tidy quicker, plan better and have things in place before you really need them.

Fashions Come And Go

Posted on September 2, 2023

Each person might think this new fashion hasn’t happened before. They may assume they are the first ones ever to discuss this or see it evolve.

Eventually, people see enough happen over and over and write a song about it. “It’s all the same, only the names’ll change” – Bon Jovi.

History is a great thing to study when you want to learn about the future.
