Sometimes it’s a rather short time we have with people. Focus on enjoying the time together.

Keep Playing To Win
Even if things are not currently going in your favour, play every second to win! Keep the winner’s mindset. It can still turn around. There is time. But you need to play every moment like it’s the gold medal match and you are absolutely going to win.
Throw every ounce of energy into your efforts. Leave nothing left over for when you’re done. Never give up. It’s only over when that lady sings.
Until that final whistle, play like an obsessed champion. And one day you’ll be one.

Then Is A Powerful Word
We will go to the store and then…. I bought a new car and then…. The word, then, forces you to use your imagination and visualise the future and the next step.
As long as you can see the next step, you can move yourself forward, progressing toward a goal. So get in the habit of saying “then” and then filling in the blanks as required.

Get Things Done!
Tomorrow, when you wake up, become a hurricane with huge power and get things done. Move with speed and purpose. Focus on one thing in a sustained direction and then switch to the next thing. Keep going. Make tomorrow the most productive day you’ve had in 6 weeks!!

Planning Ahead
You’ll spend less, feel better and reduce stress if you can plan ahead.
Christmas cards are a great example. If you plan ahead, you’ll have time to make or buy cards that you love to send. If you’re making your card, you won’t have to pay for instant production. You can opt for the cheaper 2-3 day production.
Also, you will pay less for postage with a lot of lead time. You won’t have to use a courier, express service or overnight delivery. You can pay the least and know it will get there in time.
Not planning ahead, and acting on it, will cost you more time, more money, more stress and many missed opportunities. You may even have to pay penalties or fines. (Think about parking tickets. You pay less if you pay quickly. A good incentive).

Meet People
Meeting people can be the key to your future. It is in the exchange of ideas, capital, assets, time and energy that things start to get cooking.

Balance In The Universe
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.

Complete One Extra Thing
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.

As Good As It Might Get

Avoid Problems
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.
