Right

right

Do you feel the need to be right in a conversation?

 

Most people do feel that need.

 

Why do we need to be right when we talk with others?

 

We don’t listen to learn and understand. We only wait for our moment to reply.

 

“Listen with the intent to understand, not the intent to reply.”

– Stephen Covey

 

When you choose to be right, you choose your ego instead of building your relation with that person.

 

“You can be right or you can be happy.”

– Gerald Jampolsky

 

Before you do your best to be right, think a little more about that bad habit. Are you sure that what you’ll say will help in anyway. If so, find a way to say it without attacking and hurting.

Move on

Move on.

 

« Don’t look back. Live today with passion. »

– Less Brown

 

Don’t dwell on your mistake.

 

We all make mistake, we all can learn from them, but we have to move on.

 

If you stop because of a mistake, the more time you spend on that stop, the more difficult it will become to take action again.

 

“You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don’t try to forget the mistakes, but you don’t dwell on it. You don’t let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space.”

– Johnny Cash

After a road accident, the best way to fight a traumatism is to get back driving.

 

If you start to feel sorry for yourself and stop taking action, you’ll never get anywhere close to your dream.

Caffeine free day

caffeine

How about a “Day without any Caffeine”?

 

Are you taking caffeine every day?

 

Are you taking more than one coffee per day?

 

I found out that I need to take caffeine to keep myself up and productive. I think it’s cultural. It’s ok to use caffeine in the morning and as needed during the day to stay productive in our industrial world.

 

How many coffee per day is too much?

 

Outside of coffee, do you use something else to keep you up and productive?

Little things

littlethings

Be grateful for every little good thing happening around you.

 

From good will come good. And if you put your energy of gratitude behind it also, it will come back with more power.

 

What you send will come back. What you get back will come back again as you show gratitude.

 

“Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”

– Robert Brault

 

If you change the way you look at things, you can change the way you live your life.

 

If you choose to focus on the good. Giving away without expecting anything back. Being grateful for whatever you get (every little things), then your life will change.

 

Happiness is a choice. Every little things maters.

 

“It is impossible to feel grateful and depressed in the same moment.”

– Naomi Williams

Comfort zone

comfort

Being comfortable.

 

Are you living your life within your comfort zone?

 

You cannot change your life and stay in your comfort zone.

 

You’ll have to get out and do things that you have never done before.

 

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”

– Neale Donald Walsch

Do you really want to change your life? If the answer is yes, then start to do something about it.

 

It’s hard to move out of the zone. It’s hard to do new things. But if you want to change your life, you’ll have to do things that you weren’t doing before.

 

“For cool things to happen, you have to get out of your comfort zone.”

– Rony Abovitz

Out of your zone, you will face failure and deception. It can’t all be only fun. But if you want to create something new for you, you’ll need to change what you are doing right now.

 

“I think anyone taken out of their comfort zone and put somewhere else will change.”

– Samuel Larsen

Vision +++

vision+

 

Do you have a positive vision?

 

It’s all about how you perceive reality. You have an impact.

 

Positive actions are directly related to positives visions.

 

“In order to carry a positive action we must develop here a positive vision.”

– Dalai Lama

Positivity is a choice. We can fake positivity, but if we kept on doing it, it will become truth.

 

You have the power to decide how you face reality. You don’t have control on everything, but you can choose how you see it.

 

It may seems easy, but you’ll find out that old habits are very hard to changes. Positivity is hard to develop, but it is worth the trouble.

 

“Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.”

– Zig Ziglar

You sent

yousent

 

Beware of what you sent in the world around you.

 

Whatever you let out will have influence on the world.

 

You influence trough your filter. Your filter is built with what you learned. Using that filter, you influence and perceive reality. Reality will react to what you sent out. Good or bad, it will influence what shall become.

 

“Think twice before you speak, because your words and influence will plant the seed of either success or failure in the mind of another.”

– Napoleon Hill

 

There’s no outside, you are linked to everything. And everything is linked to you.

 

The filter can be changed. It is built with experience and knowledge. Good or bad, the filter will be created with it. Even if the filter is created in the worst environment that can be found, the user has the power to change it. As soon as you understand your filter is wrong, you have the chance to change it. Before that, it’s almost impossible to do.

 

A lot of people are really sincere in thinking they are doing the best to help others. They act according to their filter not knowing it is wrong. When you act according to your filter and doing the best you can to help, your action has good energy in it. If you know it’s wrong to do what you do, then it will be filled with bad energy and reflect back.

 

You can’t lie to yourself. If you know something is bad and still do it, then you’ll get back what you sent.

Imagine the world

imagine

 

Imagine you could change the world with an idea.

 

Would you change your way of thinking?

 

Would you do your best to have great ideas that will help others?

 

“Imagination is the beginning of creation. You imagine what you desire, you will what you imagine and at last you create what you will.”

– George Bernard Shaw

You do influence the world with your idea. You influence the world with your thinking.

 

If we want to change the world, we have to change our mind first.

 

“Don’t wait for the world to change. Change your mind about the world.”
– Alan Cohen

 

You can’t force someone to change his mind. But you can influence that mind with how you use yours.

 

This blog is all about changing minds.

 

Slowly, post after post, I want to put my own thinking out there to influence the world. I know I will not save anyone with my blog, but if I can get someone to think about what I wrote, that would be a step in the right direction.

Your word

yourword

Do you keep your word?

 

When you way that you’ll do something, are you doing it?

 

Can you show some resolve?

 

Keep your word, something that still has a lot of power.

 

Facing two people that need your help, you’ll always choose the person that has been there for you before. Someone who has kept his word with you.

 

Do you want to be that person? Someone that others trust and respect.

 

“Keep your word. Honor commitments, and they will double back to honor you.”

– Bill Rancic

People trust people who keep their word.

 

Keeping your word can be hard. It can be a lot of work. In the end it could be worth so much more than all the work you did.

 

Don’t help someone for the return. Do it because you think it’s the right things.

Work with reality

work

We all have to learn to work with reality. We all have to learn to adjust our action according to what is happening around us. We can’t have control over what is happening, but we do have control over how we choose to see and react to it.

 

“I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.”

 – Audrey Hepburn

 

If you only walk in the direction of your dream, you’ll accomplish more then all those who are still looking around to find the fastest way to get it. No action is perfect, but it’s with action that the most wonderful success becomes reality.

 

“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”

 – Soren Kierkegaard

 

Instant success is a myth! No ones get instant success, there’s always a long road of mistake that leads to success. The only reason why some people end up with success and other doesn’t is because some stop taking action and others kept going on.

 

“A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”

 – George Bernard Shaw

Don’t be among the ones who are staring at the people who are living their dream on TV. Stand up and take action to have a chance to live your dream. Yes, looking at people that have success can be inspiring, but don’t fall into the trap of living success through them instead of going for your own success.
