Your Private Thoughts

Often your private thoughts should stay that way. Write them down or say them out loud and you may invite unwanted attention.

However, the only way for the world to know what is going on inside your head is to communicate.

And the world is better off with more communication than less: especially the honest kind.

Positive Plans

Positive planning is a great way to create momentum in the direction you want to go. Planning out how you’re getting from here to where you want to be is so much more powerful than saying what you don’t want.

If you focus on what you don’t want, you’re likely to get some or all of it just by referencing it and bringing it toward you. I wouldn’t do that.

Focus on what you absolutely want. Make positive plans to get it. Write out those plans. Work towards that plan every day.

Stay Fit

This is an important life hack. Being fit as a child helps you to be able to participate in more things. It is also good for self-esteem.

Later in life, staying fit is helpful in reducing stress and finding and keeping a love interest.

In the greying years, staying fit helps to keep you healthier and remain a lower fall risk for longer. Strength training is a key element in this too.

While some may find this a controversial post, if it is read objectively, it is hard to argue the points.

People See What They Want To See

They look for proof that they are right rather than consider what actually makes most sense in an objective way.

Some folks want to see positive while others want to see negative. Why would someone focus on negative things when there are so many positive things in the world to see, hear or remember?

While critics criticise and complainers complain, those with a positive outlook smile and remain grateful.

Which one are you?

Is it the better option for your life?

Could you switch? Or be more positive?

Rules, Boundaries and Enforcement

Why have rules or boundaries in life if they are not enforced? You might as well not have them. Chaos will eventually ensue but that is expected.

Having rules and boundaries and enforcing them occasionally or intermittently or inconsistently is another path to disaster. No one knows if they are true or worth respecting or if they can get away with things.

Again chaos will ensue.

Have sensible rules and boundaries and enforce them. That is the ideal way to go.

Knowing Too Much

100 billion people have lived on Earth. To know everything about everyone of their lives would take 100 billion lifetimes. That could be somewhere around 2 trillion years.

Even to know a little bit about 20 friends and family takes many hours, days, months or even years of spending time with them.

Perhaps it’s best to limit the amount you know about all these people in the world, especially people you have never even met.

Think about it. Spend the time on your life, not finding out everything about others.

Help Can Hinder

If you help people it can be a blessing. However, help can hinder the person’s personal development, self-esteem and confidence.

Helping often seems like the right thing to do. But, it isn’t always right, if there is a growth opportunity in sight.

Get Fit. Stay Fit.

Food is a fuel, not entertainment. Use the best fuel you can by eating natural foods. Anything processed is obviously not natural.

Walk a fair bit. It’s a nice thing to do. Fresh air, movement, and sunshine are fabulous for your health and staying trim.

Develop good habits now. If you do, you’ll find staying fit quite easy over time.
