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.

Drink More Water

Posted on February 25, 2023

Water is like a miracle drug. It hydrates you so you have the right blood pressure as well as removes toxins. It can lower your blood glucose. It also helps to reduce constipation and keep your skin and internal organs healthy.

It’s also a great tool to help you lose weight or maintain your ideal weight.

However, if you neglect it, after 4 days without water, most people expire.

So treat it with the respect it deserves. Drink up!!

In Pursuit Of Feeling Good

Posted on February 24, 2023

This can be a prescription for disaster in life. While feeling good is wonderful, the constant pursuit of that feeling can lead to poor choices, pain, misery and regret.

Often there is a choice between something that feels good and something less enjoyable. For example, watching your favourite tv show rather than doing an hour of homework. Or perhaps you’d rather pay for a holiday rather than research and invest your funds into a sensible venture.

Making the feel good choice once in a while will usually work out fine. However, developing a habit of avoiding harder work in pursuit of feeling good can leave your life in tatters after several years.

Your life can slide into a series of pointless undertakings, unfortunate failures and directionless drifting with no joy of accomplishment or giving. You may find you are lacking in life’s key elements such as health, relationships, finances and happiness.

You are in control of this. Pursue more than just feeling good and with a 20 year time horizon. Your future self will thank you.

Be discerning with your short life and limited time. This is your one shot! Make it incredible!

Why Bother?

Posted on February 22, 2023

Many times you may see a chore, especially a repetitive one, and think, why bother. It can be easy to dismiss things. Yet, these can be important for structure in your day, health and cleanliness, benefit to others or even to give you purpose.

It can be easy to dismiss things like admin, cleaning or tidying. But they mount up and compound. Then you can get into even bigger trouble.

Learn to be tidier. It’s a skill you can gradually develop and is useful throughout your life.

Bother to do things. It builds discipline, self-esteem, confidence and even pride. Your life will be richer for it.
