Unfortunately, so is losing.
Remember that the five people you spend your most time with, heavily impact what your life looks like.
Make sure you are hanging around positive people with skills equal to, better than, or complimentary to, your skills. Make sure their attitude is worth catching also.
Make sure you hang out more with people that are winning. It will change your life.
Phone, Dashcam or doorbell camera footage are what our local police ask for to help resolve situations in our community.
30 years ago, none of these were an option. They were not even an idea.
Now they are quite common place. Hopefully they encourage people to be better citizens, take their time and be patient with others.
Is it a person? Memory? A sport? A location?
Gather a few thoughts that make you smile. Make note of them. Look at that note 3-5 times every day.
It’s an easy way to instantly feel good several times per day. Seems like an easy win to me.
What one thing could you do differently, starting today, that could make a nice difference in your life?
What could you eliminate from your day? Or what could you adjust to make the outcome you want more likely?
Don’t buy sugary or salty snacks or treats and keep them in the house. Keep cherry tomatoes and hummus instead. When you think you are hungry, pour a cool glass of water. Set your morning wake up bell to 15 minutes earlier and then get up and do 30 push ups and sit ups.
Get things ready now or in the evening before bed so it is easier to make the changes happen tomorrow.
Each time you set up your environment to win, your future self smiles and remembers how clever you are. That’s a nice feeling.
Go look at the source material. Do not allow someone else to give their opinion as fact. As tempting as it might be to accept that version of events, it’s not a good idea.
Sure it would be quicker. But it won’t be as accurate or informative.
Go to the source first.
Having the right timing can be very beneficial. Near misses are based on beneficial timing. Impact and accidents tend to be unfortunate timing.
Some timing elements you can predict. For example, being late to an interview is rarely going to provide a good outcome.
You can force timing, but it doesn’t always work out well. Agree timings. Then allow plenty of time to arrive early. Enjoy the feeling of calm as you arrive with time to spare.
It’s amazing how water can fix so many things. Dehydration, which can cause sluggishness or loss of focus, can be fixed with a few glasses of water.
Have a glass of water a little before bed and have a full glass when you wake up. These are easy times to remember and great habits to instil.
A few more glasses of water throughout the day and you’ll feel fresher, more awake, energised and focused.
Keep the water flowing. You’ll feel better for it.
What does that mean to you? Does it mean a certain time? Is it a silly idea that you can’t take seriously?
Could you go to bed at 6pm and be comfortable with that?
Would you have to be quite unwell? Or could you decide on a whim that you needed some extra rest and simply get yourself to bed? Or are you a wake-up-late-only-option kind of person? Have a think about how you see time and sleep. It may be revealing or surprising. Goodnight.
For some, they paid the ultimate price.
Many take it for granted.
There are also many that have, lucky for them, never even thought about it. They’ve never had too.
Elon Musk is attempting to buy Twitter for $43bn as a proxy for free speech. He is a purist. He seems to believe everyone can have a voice and people should not be censored. Why not?
The Twitter Board doesn’t like it. They rejected the offer. What exactly they didn’t like is hard to tell. That they will likely lose their jobs? That they will lose their power to control who speaks and what they can say? Or that they think, despite a failing business model, they can turn this company around and make it great again.
Get the popcorn, this is interesting.
