When This Is Over, You’ll Miss It

It could be a holiday, work assignment, kid’s project, DIY work on your home, a contract role or a celebration. You may be feeling uncomfortable and can’t wait for it to end. But, when it is over, you’ll miss it.

You’ll miss the energy, comraderie, purpose, teamwork and excitement. The buzz and deadlines will be longed for too.

So savour every minute. For this too shall pass.

File Fast And Well

Touch paper once if you can. Deal with things the week they arrive. Don’t let things pile up. But if you do, bite the bullet and set aside time that month to get back on top of things.

File things properly. Do it fast. Then it’s easy to find later. And it’s off the floor, desk, counter, table, etc.

Have a good filing system. Have any to start. Then improve it.

Get on top of your admin. You can thank me later.

Heck Yes Or Hard No

This is a great way to decide whether you do things in life. If you are not delighted and shout out ’Heck yes’ at the mere mention of something, then it may not be worth your piece of life to do it.

In that case, make it a hard no.

Of course sometimes you’ll be required to do things that don’t excite you and bring joy. But when you have the choice and the decision is yours, live your life in the ‘Heck yes!’ zone.

Imagine that life! Heck Yes!!!

1st Step Thinking

Often people go with their first thought or feeling on things.

First or worst thought.

They react. They don’t think or consider. No six chairs thinking for them. Their first instinct of fear, concern, flight and fight are overwhelming. Monkey brain takes over.

Pause for a moment. Consider a few other options. Has the opposing view ever happened to you or in some instances you are aware of? Then relax. As it probably has.

At least get to 2nd Step thinking. Show you have some ability to assess things rationally. You can still prefer your outcome. But remember, others have their personal reasons for wanting their outcomes. It doesn’t mean one is more right or wrong in the universe. So don’t act like it.

Good luck! ?

What Gives You Energy?

Think about when you feel like the Energiser bunny. When does that happen? Are you dancing? Playing a sport? Speaking? Painting? Working on a deal? Attending a concert?

List out on paper when you get most energised. Then start steering your life to spending more time in those situations.

Winning Is Contagious

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.

The New CCTV

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.

What Makes You Smile?

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.

Set Up Your Life To Win

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.
