How To Have A Perfect Day (2)

If you really want to be more productive and make an impact in life, the first thing to do is to draw a demarcation between being busy and focusing on results. I've found that when I focus on results, I ensure that the right things get done, all the time.

After making an honest assessment of what will throw you off track and banishing the interlopers from your battlefield as reflected in our previous discourse, you want to adopt a system of rules that will help you control your schedule and put things in perspective.

The best way to do this is to create a "TO-DO LIST" Outline all your important activities for the day including the daily rituals you must undertake to realize your dreams, and tick each item off once the task is completed.

If you're not used to moving around with diaries, then the 'spreadsheet program' on your laptop or the 'To-Do/NotePad/Reminder Apps' on your mobile devices are powerful tools to get you started.

The idea is that when you commit to your rules and schedules, you'll have greater strength to overcome temptation. Rules are stronger than willpower. Rules are better than habits. Rules are essential to your success.

So deliver yourself from temptation, remove the bad habits from your life, replace them with positive rituals and strict rules, and you'll be on track to better days fast.

Have an amazing day!

Why Success Has Nothing To Do With Luck

What you believe has a tremendous impact on how well you can deal with the challenges of life. As a matter of fact, I believe that your belief system is the single most important factor in your success and happiness. In the course of my life, I held onto 4 beliefs that helped me through tough challenges. They helped me turn around my finances, faith, career, and interpersonal relationships. Here they are: 1. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND A PURPOSE TO SERVE ME This is the belief that helped me find the opportunities and the gift even in the face of adversity. 2. WHAT DOESN'T KILL ME MAKES ME STRONGER This is the belief that gets me going when I'm sad or hurt. I've scaled through moments of depression with the help of this belief. 3. I HAVE NOTHING TO FEAR, BUT FEAR ITSELF This is the belief that I repeat to myself every time I want to do something that scares me. This one is extremely liberating once you internalize it. What would you do wit...

Ignite Your Creativity

Your life is like an ongoing work of art. The canvas of your life begins with your family; and your experiences, setbacks, and triumphs play a part in forming who you become. And as long as you live, your life will continue to be a form of artistic creation. Creativity is often narrowly defined by creative works, such as books, paintings, and music. But creativity encompasses so much more than the works we create. Living a creative life also involves the thought, energy, and time we devote to problem-solving and creating the life we’ve been given to live. So stop delineating creativity only along aesthetic lines. Get out of your comfort zone and find solution to problems. Reflect on ways of adding value to human existence. Stop complaining about issues and start innovating. Develop new ideas. Implement new processes. Devise new methods of doing things or making things work. When you get stuck, get out of your work space and go for a walk. Leverage synergy where practicable. Your crea...
