Hard Work And Luck

Posted on March 8, 2023

These both look the same. The results can lull you into a false sense of comfort and expectation.

Being a millionaire may have come from hard work as an employee or a business builder. But you could have also simply won the lottery. In both cases you can enjoy or show off your wealth. No one needs to know how you got it.

However, you’ll know how you got it. And one route is vastly more likely to have eventual success than the other.

So start off with hard work and if you get a lucky break along the way, enjoy it.

People Overcompensate

Posted on March 7, 2023

If you’re driving, and you veer to the left, you may overcompensate and put yourself off the road, but on the right side.

When someone does something you think is wrong, you may go even further in trying to correct it.

Be mindful of this correction bias.

Who Carries The Blame Carries The Power

Posted on March 6, 2023

If you blame the government for your situation, you give them the power over your life. When you say your friend is to blame for your lack of success, you are acknowledging the significant influence they have on you.

When you take personal responsibility for where you are going, you give yourself the power to get there. Now get going!

Is This Love?

Posted on March 4, 2023

What is it to you? How does it make you feel? Have you lost that loving feeling? Is it amazing?

Are you giving or receiving? Waiting or providing? Could you get hurt? Are you exposed? Is your communication like beautiful prose?

Define love in your terms. Then see where you can find it. Or maybe you provide it.

You’ll Be Happiest When Doing Your Best

Posted on March 1, 2023

Comfort lulls you into short term happiness. Ahhh. But if you are too comfortable for too long, you often get complacent. Then you do less.

Thats when the unhappy kicks in. And it’s hard to reverse from there. You might have a little regret creep in and some doubt about your abilities and future. Confidence is next to ebb away and then your life seems to become a series of easy, comfortable moments inside your shrinking sphere of activity.

Don’t let this happen. Do a few things each day that make you a little uncomfortable. Expand that comfort zone. Then you can start shifting from uncomfortable to Unstoppable!

Go on. Give it a try for a week.
