- Reflect on your life: Spend 10 - 20 minutes daily eflecting. Open up your mind and just think, analyze, consider, ponder, contemplate, imagine, visualize and dream. Capture these thoughts by writing them down so you can re-read later. As Albert Einstein said –“Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions.”
- Become an optimist: If you’ve been stuck on negative thinking, you’ve only created an anchor in your life that’s keeping you down. Always look for the positive in every situation.
- Set a goal: Set a lofty goal that stretches you outside of your comfort zone. As Napoleon Hill said – “A goal is a dream with a deadline”
- Define who your role models are: Once you’ve identified them, model yourself after them. If you don’t, you’ll pick up bad habits from all the wrong people.
- Be grateful: Having an attitude of gratitude invites even better things to come into your life. Life cannot be fun if you are angry and emotional all of the time.
- Become a life-long learner: Let your mind be the sponge it was created to be – commit to learn something new every day. Read a book and/or watch an entertaining and educational TV show.
- Embrace change: It’s impossible to reach your full potential if you’re not willing to change. Come to the realization that change is good!
- All you need is patience (yahh ahhh): Change takes time. Take responsibility for your choices and know that you choose to become part of the process or fight the process. Either way, change will STILL take time.
