In this article, I will prove to you that you are worth at least $5,000,000 – but before I get to that, let me lay some ground work, starting with the emotional barriers to growth.
There are four emotional barriers that prevent us from achieving growth in our lives. They are:.
1. Accepting 100% responsibility for your life.
2. Taking massive, and immediate, decisive action.
3. Willingness to look foolish.
4. Beginning with incorrect premises.
Today I wanted to talk about the last one on this list – beginning with incorrect premises.
So, what do I mean by an incorrect premise? An incorrect premise is a belief you hold, something that you honestly believe to be Read More...
Spring is in the air! Driving around this time of year, it’s hard NOT to notice the vibrant green colors that radiate from the grass, fields, and tips of trees. It’s almost as if there is a light turned on under the ground, or inside the trees, which makes the green shine so bright. As I observe nature’s new growth, I am aware of the physical manifestation of what I have been pondering in great length recently – the inextricable link between growth and radiating joy.
You see, I’ve observed this in people: when they are growing–when they are pushing themselves to produce something new or to reach a new level–they seem to be really joyful. When people feel Read More...
The first quarter of the year is done and hopefully you are on track to achieving the goals you set at the beginning of the year. What I am going to cover today will help you consistently review your goals and keep them in the forefront of your mind.
The best way to do that is to post your goals where you can see them throughout the day. This will help immensely in reminding you if you are on track and what you are working towards.
Here are four places that I post my goals and I think you will find it a very beneficial way to review your goals.
1 – In Your Work Area
This one is pretty obvious. We spend most of our day here, so it is one of the best places Read More...
If you find yourself asking, “Where did the day go?” these top 10 tips for better time management will help you become more focused and productive. Remember, your time is valuable.
1. Shift from Not Valuing to Valuing your Time.
This is an important change to make and when it happens you will never waste another minute! In a dollar sense – this means you are comfortable charging for your lifetime of knowledge and experience – don’t allow clients to take this for granted. You have invested a lot of time and energy. In life, we only get one chance with our time – we cannot go back and use the last 10 seconds!
Think about it: From the moment we wake up to the second we go to sleep, we are making decisions about how we spend our time. I’d like to share with you my secret weapon for making smarter time choices and reducing stress: I ask myself the BEST time management question:
What is the BEST use of my time, right now?
For example, this morning when the alarm went off, I had to decide whether to get out of bed to exercise (which I know will make me feel energized all day) OR hit the snooze button and get a little more sleep (which I felt I could use). Today, I decided to get up and exercise (hence I have energy to write this column!) while other days the answer to question is to hit the snooze button. Both are smart Read More...
In a cultural full of consumption and instant gratification, the financial responsible and discipline to save for a purchase can be challenging…but, we all know it is the smart thing to do.
Regardless of your level of income, saving for a dream you have – such as a flat screen, a trip around the world or new BMW – can be easy if you get creative, even in these down economic times.
For instance, you could have your bank automatically take 5% of your paycheck and deposit it into a savings account for your dreams.
Another way to save is to not spend any coin money. Instead round all of your purchases up to the next dollar and deposit your coins into a savings account once a Read More...
