Find the people that uplift you and challenge you to be the best version of yourself. Surround yourself with people that will stretch you and encourage you to do the work on yourself and maintain the discipline required to succeed in your preferred field.
Find good people, not easy people. Look for those people that will call you out on your pity party nonsense. Don’t find an easy crowd, go where the stakes are high and the challenges stretch you every day.
Get rid of time takers that don’t serve you. Stop watching videos that aren’t amazing. Shut off movies quickly if they are not engaging.
Find the time to do the things you really enjoy. Reduce the time you spend on everything else.
There is always a silver lining. Sometimes you have to search very hard for it. Other times it doesn’t feel that great, regarding the silver under the circumstances, but it is there. We can seek to get something out of every experience.
Sometimes it does take days, weeks or years to discover the win or accept it. But when you look, you’ll find the win. Look for one every day.
Find the good in people, things and situations. If you look for the good, you’re more likely to find it. And if you find it, the better off you’ll be in your mental state.
What do you believe in?
Have you ever really sat down for an hour and wrestled with this? Perhaps you have very clear cut convictions. Writing out your thoughts can be very helpful.
I think there was a scene in Bull Durham where the player rhymed off everything he believed in. Can you do that?
Maybe it’s time to give it more thought. ????
To carr.y on. Bring your A-game. Build your stamina. You’ll be glad you did!
In all discussions, find common ground. You have way more of it than you think.
Inner strength and physical strength can both be augmented via mental strength. Build your mental strength to improve the others. Build your resilience and recharge process.
Sometimes a very deep breath, straightening your back, lifting your chin and feeling determined are enough to make an incredible and immediate shift in your mindset and perceived ability to succeed despite the challenges ahead.
Find a way. Don’t look for obstacles, overcome them.
Life gets a lot easier if you are looking for common ground.
Oh, and if you don’t feel the need to blame anyone.
