  Toxic relationships/people:  Remove them from your  life.  No bigger soul crusher than a person in your life that makes you feel like a convenience or object. Addiction:  If you smoke, drink too much, do drug, seek help. There is a better more positive life out there. Dive into why you are trying to escape yourself. Hobby:  Find something you like to do. Something your particularly good at, and focus on that and have fun. Career:  Maybe, you’re in a dead end job, maybe you are in the corporate world making decent money, but you aren’t happy. Explore other life paths. Find something you enjoy doing, a passion, then find a way to generate an income from it. Expectations:  Don’t have any, expectations can set you up for failure and disappointment. Take life as it come, while responding not reacting. Health:  Take care of yourself. Cut out most processed foods and get some form of physical activity 30 mins 5x a week. Goals:  Make a list of...

  The most famous tip for getting motivated is to simply visualize your success. But research has found that, If you imagine yourself instantly successful, it will actually sap your  motivation  to go out and achieve your goals. A better strategy would be to visualize yourself completing the steps it will take to reach your goals. So, if you’re trying to lose weight, instead of visualizing about your perfect body, visualize about eating healthy & doing workout [1]. Incentivizing things that are already enjoyable and rewarding can decrease your motivation. The Research published in 2018 suggests that, when people are given extrinsic  rewards  for tasks that they already find intrinsically motivating, then they will become less interested in the task in the future [2]. The Parkinson’s Law (your work always expands to fill the available time for its completion) works because it creates a false sense of  urgency  and gives a tangible starting point and...

  To be clear,  laziness is not the same as procrastination . Procrastination hides beneath it a bigger problem. That’s why it’s important to get to the bottom of WHY we procrastinate. What are some possible answers? We procrastinate because… …  We are used to being a straight A student , but we start taking a class that’s very difficult. …  We feel dread to start studying for an exam  because it seems like it will take hours, days, even weeks. …  We want to avoid having an unpleasant conversation  with someone, so there’s no point in initiating it. …  We’re not managing our budget properly  so we ignore the electricity bill and it keeps piling up for months. …  Our to-do list seems endless and we feel overwhelmed  by all of the tasks we want to complete. Ok, now it’s your turn. Take a pause from reading this answer. You’ll need a few minutes to do this exercise. Get a notebook or notepad, or open up a blank document on your laptop....

  Top bad habits to stop immediately  Stop pleasing everyone.  Follow your own convictions, NOT what others expect from you. Stop pampering yourself.  Growth is found OUTSIDE your comfort zone. Stop being distracted.  We are the most distracted generation in history. No FOCUS, no results. Stop relying on others.  Your mama won’t save you anymore. NOTHING is free in life.

Eat junk and you will feel like junk. Stop surrounding yourself with negative people.  We can’t change people, but we CAN change the people that we surround ourselves with. Stop resisting change.  Staying stuck in the past has PAINFUL c...

  Shawshank Redemption is a highly misunderstood film, at least by some. Let me explain. Meet Andy Dufresne. He gets convicted for a double murder, which he didn't commit, and lands in prison for a lifetime. He stays in prison for 19 years. Right from his initial days, he slowly starts digging a tunnel in his prison cell to escape. After 19 years, he becomes a free bird. The movie is not about this. It's about something else. When Andy comes to prison, he loses his reputation, family, job and above all his freedom. That's sufficient for a person to lose his mind and feel hate towards the world. But this guy was different. This movie is all about how he spends those 19 years in prison. He keeps his calm. He makes friends. He enjoys good moments. He creates some good moments. He writes a letter every week for 6 years to build a library inside the prison. Above all, he lives a happy life for 19 years with all his difficulties, problems and hurdles intact. He does all these thi...

 I've talked with in excess of 400 specialists, tycoons, and thought pioneers on my webcast.  What's more, I saw that every one of them invest their free energy in an unexpected way.  Some invest energy with their families. Some movement. Some acquire new abilities. Some accident out before the TV and play Call of Duty (no, I'm totally serious).  In any case…  Despite the fact that every one of them spend their "Leisure time" in an unexpected way, there are a couple of shared characteristics that they all imparted to respects to how they spend their "Personal Time".  Here are the 7 different ways that moguls and cutting edge pioneers spend their "Personal Time"  1. They Read… A LOT  Basically, perusers are pioneers.  Of the 400+ specialists I've met on my show, just 3 revealed to me that they don't consistently understand books (yet they do burn-through instructive substance otherly)  On my own excursion, I read beyond what 500 books an...

  Short answer: YES! Most people would stop reading right there. But, if you’re truly determined and want the  sure-fire steps  to meet your goals then keep reading! Okay, glad that you decided to keep reading! That already shows you have the willpower and determination. Now, have you heard of Napoleon Hill? He interviewed 500 of the richest men Analyzed their successes down to 13 principles And presented his findings in a book titled Think and Grow Rich aka “Granddaddy of all Motivational Literature” Even today, 80 years after its first publication, it’s still the #1 bestseller in budgeting and money management on Amazon. Forbes  also published an article on Hill's work by Dr. Grace Lee in January, which explains the science behind Hill’s findings and why it works. This shows how relevant Hill’s work still is today. Hill believed to achieve your goals you need to start with a  BURNING DESIRE A burning desire is something you desperately and passionately want. Y...
