At the best of times, the ability to manage your money, health, relationships, profession, and a slew of other things makes it difficult. It is no surprise that you can frequently overlook the things that are vital.

Relationships may fall apart when you least expect it, your health may deteriorate, or your finances may suffer. At this point, you are bewildered as to how this all happened without you noticing the writing on the wall.

Be confident that managing your life needs vigilance, attention, and devotion. After all, you are just human, and things will slip through your fingers from time to time.

Life will constantly put your resolve to the test to discover how badly you want your goal.

I frequently hear people explain why they gave up. It usually goes something like this: “It was not meant to be,” “It was not enjoyable anymore,” or “Life is all about having fun.” The important thing to remember is that our thoughts have the potential to construct whatever mental state we impose on them.

By believing, you create the conditions and confirm it by seeking evidence to justify it.

Consider this for a moment.

How many books or biographies about successful individuals have you read in which the plot entailed easy sailing or a straightforward road to success? I’d guess there are not many.

Discipline, persistence, bravery, and faith are required for success. With that in mind, here are some pointers to help you stick to your goals no matter what life throws at you.

1. Establish Successful Habits

Many of your present day-to-day duties are automatic. You might have begun them months or even years ago. Rethink your current habits, and think about how you can develop everyday routines that will get you closer to your goal.

Replace bad habits with positive ones if you are aware of them. For example, when I sit down to write or research, I occasionally find myself squandering time perusing the internet. I am aware that I am diverting attention away from the main work at hand – writing a blog post.

I recently broke the habit by turning off my internet connection so I could concentrate on the subject at hand. I repeated this practice for a total of twelve days before the NEW behavior became established, this was my process of deactivating the old negative habit.

I now write unaffectedly with the internet connection off since I know I will not squander time idly searching the web. By sticking with it, I have reinforced this new habit.

Continue to practice your new habit until it becomes second nature – until you have a good grasp on it. Replace the old, limiting habit with the NEW, empowered behavior.

2. Hold Someone Accountable

Regardless of how diligent I am, I have always advocated for being accountable to someone. I used to work with a variety of mentors to help me stay focused.

I received great insight into my work since I had the privilege of having someone else review it and provide innovative recommendations for development.

Making professions of commitment to individuals close to you may also be part of being accountable. You can express your desire to reach a certain objective by a specific date, either vocally or in writing. Because we do not want to disappoint others, we are more inclined to keep focused on the work at hand.

Being responsible permits an objective observer to evaluate your efforts. It is best to collaborate with those who have walked in your shoes or have comparable experience. i.e. a coach for example.

3. Concentrate on Smaller Victories

Depending on the scale of the goal, it is best to concentrate on minor triumphs that bring you closer to it. For example, if your goal is to run a marathon (42km), you may set aside a certain amount of time to complete the task.

It might be a ten-month or longer process with minor milestones along the way. Completing your first 10km run and steadily increasing your mileage to compete in a larger distance race would be a reasonable development.

Focusing on tiny triumphs along the way will give you the confidence you need to keep going. It gives you confidence and proves you are on the correct track. During the pursuit of goals, you may encounter setbacks along the road.

These are crucial lessons because they help you to iron out the kinks before tackling the bigger picture. The opportunity to do it right during the build-up period is preferable.

4. Cultivate an Insatiable Hunger

Without a question, this is the most difficult component of achieving goals. 

What drives some people to pursue their goals with excitement,while others give up when the going gets tough?

For the last few years, I have been interested in understanding human behaviour as it pertains to achievement. On a personal level, and after modeling a lot of successful individuals, I have seen that both have an unquenchable desire to achieve.

Successful people are relentless in the pursuit of their goals. They, like everyone else, face setbacks and disappointments. What distinguishes them is their capacity to quickly get back on track and learn from their failures. It is their capacity to repeat this process until they win the reward that distinguishes them.

Successful individuals, you see, believe in themselves. They have built an inner determination — an inner conversation that provides them with effective pictures, ideas, and beliefs on a regular basis. These inner discussions have the ability to cancel out any exterior doubts that occur while pursuing their aim.

I encourage you to seek your own conviction. Find out why you want to achieve your goals. What is your motivation for pursuing it? Who will you be once you have achieved it? What would your life be like once you have achieved your goal?

Follow in the footsteps of those who have achieved a comparable goal and pursue it with  excitment. People that are successful are adaptive. They know exactly what they want. They are open and willing to let life show them the HOWS.

When you build an unwavering devotion to achieving a goal, hurdles and setbacks become speed bumps rather than stop signs.

Your objective should be so big that it nourishes and flames your spirit with meaning and purpose. You embody the objective in every cell of your existence, so you are inspired to achieve it.

So, what’s the big deal here?

I have been doing meditation for a while now. But what does this have to do with the concept of Infinite Possibilities? Meditation is a teachable skill that allows you to see your own thoughts, resulting in a more integrated brain and a more robust existence.

I have discovered that practicing meditation takes us to a point of greater awareness of our mind and less connection to our identity, which also allows us to enter this realm of unlimited possibilities.

Before we delve deeper into this “nuanced” realm of Infinities Possibilities, it is critical to understand the science of how we perceive the world today, as well as the newer (yet, very established and proven) science that we must become aware of if we want to create transformation in our minds, lives, and world.

Newtonian science and quantum science are the two domains that exist today. Newtonian science is a classical physics perspective centered on the physical form of objects and experiencing things via the restricted capability of our five senses, namely our visual and auditory senses.

Seeing a desk as a solid form and your body as a solid form, with the idea that we are different from other physical forms around us, are two examples. That desk is there, and your body is here, but you are not in any way linked.

Everything is merely pure energy in the Quantum perspective of reality, and all energy forms are linked and in interaction with one another.

If you comprehend the new Quantum Physics method of looking at things, you would see that everything in life is related. There is no distance between you and that desk, that other person, or that tree. We are all inextricably linked.

Our minds live in our bodies in the Newtonian universe. According to the Quantum theory, our mind is Consciousness, living amid and related to the energy of everything around us. We severely restrict ourselves when we just perceive the world through the one domain of Newtonian physics when we also have the other realm of Quantum physics to explore a whole new universe of possibilities.

What Takes Place When You Meditate

Meditation helps us to reach Presence, which brings us to Awareness, a realm where time dissolves, everything becomes apparent, and feelings of peace, love, god, and connectedness to others and the Universe arise. In addition, we can experience sensations of “empty but fullness,” as well as infinity, eternity, expansiveness, freedom, and possibilities.

So, in a way, we are gaining access to Awareness by connecting to the Quantum dimension of reality, which is all about interconnections and unlimited possibilities waiting to be realized. We are not inventing the experience of Awareness through meditation, but rather accessing it by connecting into the Quantum dimension that already exists. Mind-blowing!

Even more deep, every time we enter this realm and experience this vast Awareness, we integrate our brain! According to research, an interconnected brain leads to a more robust existence.

But how might meditation help you brainstorm with the universe and find the answers you are seeking?

When we link to the Quantum world of Infinite Possibilities to access Awareness, we enter a state of “knowing” the truth about who we are and how we are inextricably related to everyone and everything in this Universe. Although the first trade-off may feel like a certainty for great uncertainty (for some), we also have access to a state of vast “knowing” that is extremely reassuring and grounded.

We may realize that we are greater than our body and far more than simply our brains from this location of boundless “knowing.” It is from here that we become aware of the linked aspect of existence, as well as experience infinity and timelessness. And it is at this point that our brains integrate, allowing us to break free from our previous programming and create a new perspective of ourselves and our life that is more true than we can ever experience through our Newtonian world view.

Do the following while in a meditative state:

When you sit down to meditate, ask the question you want to be answered. Pose it clearly, and maybe even write it down.

Then proceed to practice your meditation skills, stilling your body and mind, opening your heart, and raising your awareness as near to a superconscious level as possible. During this period, try not to worry about the question.

Wait for the answer to your question to come to you at the end of your meditation, when you are as peaceful and elevated as possible. It frequently occurs at that point. If not, have trust that it will come later, perhaps at your next meditation session, during the day when you least expect it, or in a nighttime dream.

I recommend using the calm app, I personally use most mornings for mediation, I also use the nature escape sounds to help me focus while I work. 

Lastly, I recommend that if you wish to incorporate the universals into your daily life, join, AndSheLive.co.uk, ASL membership that consists of a framework that will teach you how to transform your life and connect with yourself and the universe more often. So that you can manifest a life that you do not need a holiday from.

Things from our history that we want to keep might be difficult to let go of. We treasure our memories. Moments that we wish we could relive.

Then there are things we want to let go of from our past. Memories we’d prefer to forget. Moments we wish did not happen.

Because you are reading this, you are seeking assistance with the latter. You want to let go of the past – or at least a piece of it.

You have tried before without much success, and now you are looking for advice on how to get rid of a weight from your life.

Fair warning: this is not usually a quick or straightforward procedure. It needs perseverance and effort.

However, by following the suggestions below, you may keep moving on while gradually releasing the past’s hold on to you and your life.

This procedure has two sides. To begin, you must understand what NOT to do.

Many people choose one of a few ways that provide the impression that they are dealing with the past when, in reality, they are not.

This must be avoided at all costs.

Second, you must employ a number of mental skills to assist you in working through your history.

Let’s start with what you should not do:

1. Do Not Suppress It

Assume you have placed an unpleasant memory from your past in a box. Then you have tucked that box away in the deepest, darkest corner of a cabinet, never to be seen again.

That is what suppression is.

You effectively put the memories and sensations linked with that encounter deep into your unconscious.

The difficulty is that, even if repressed memories do not immediately reach your conscious mind, they can still have an impact on your mood and conduct.

And suppressed ideas frequently resurface in the conscious mind at a later period, bringing immense anguish.

One difficulty with suppressed thoughts and sentiments is that you are not aware of them. As a result, consulting with a licensed mental health expert is frequently essential to cope with them (more on that later).

2. Do Not Ignore It

Avoidance is comparable to repression in many respects, except this time the past is still available to the conscious mind.

It is like placing that box with the memories inside by the back door to be dealt with later.

You are aware it is there, yet you ignore it every time. You do not take a break to open it.

However, ignoring the past will not allow you to let it go.

All it accomplishes is postponing the inevitable. You will have to open the package and deal with whatever is inside sooner or later.

3. Do not Try To Ignore It

Again, this is similar to repression, but you do not entirely block out the past; instead, you merely hope that time will enable you to forget about it.

The difficulty with this strategy is that if there is suffering or trauma associated with the past, you will never be able to completely forget it.

And every time you think about it, you bring that grief or tragedy back into your life.

Sure, the tactics described later in this article will help you decrease the intensity of the memory, but it is hard to forget about things that have caused us to become emotionally charged.

4. Do Not Attempt To Change It

Another bad way to let go of the past is to change your recollection of it.

You can try to lie to yourself about what happened in order to make the feelings associated with the event appear unwarranted, but you can never totally mislead yourself.

Even if you do not confess it to yourself or others, you will know the truth.

So making up a fresh scenario in your brain is not worth the work.

5. Remove Emotions from Your Memory

Now that we have covered what you should not do, let’s move on to what you should.

This is a recurring theme that flows in and out of all those that follows.

the past can only have authority over you because of your emotional reaction to it.

A memory is composed of two parts: the sensations you had and the thoughts/feelings you had.

The sensations – the results of your five senses – include things like a visual picture of what happened, scents and noises surrounding you, and bodily feelings.

This is the whole of numerous memories. You may recall walking to the store yesterday, but simply in terms of what you saw and heard, etc.

Then there is the amalgamation of your thoughts and feelings during and after an encounter.

These might be good (the tremendous delight of seeing/hearing your child for the first time) or negative (the pain of not being able to see/hear your child for the first time) (the sadness, anger, and bitterness when an ex-partner broke up with you).

However, because you desire to let go of the past, we’ll assume they are bad.

Separating a memory’s emotions from its feelings helps you to work on those emotions without having to repress, ignore, forget, or modify the sensory element of the memory.

Many of the things that follow will assist you in doing this.

Take Charge of Your Thoughts

I am not recommending that you cease thinking about the previous incident whenever it comes to mind – that’s the avoidance we discussed before.

Instead,  you should restrict the amount of time you allow your thoughts to concentrate on the past in any given situation.

You must recall the past in order to move through it, but you do not have to do it all at once.

So, if your thoughts become caught on an incident you want to forget, tell yourself that you can only think about it for 5 minutes (or whatever length of time you are comfortable with).

You should transfer your conscious thoughts to something else after that period has passed. Preferably something nice, but even the monotony of daily life can suffice.

This method of controlling your thoughts eliminates harmful ruminating.

It also allows you to feel and express the emotions associated with the past without allowing them to become too overwhelming.

You cope with the hurt and agony one step at a time to make it bearable.

7. Try not to think about the “what-ifs.”

One thing you can safely block from your mind are the “what-ifs.”

When we suffer pain or trauma, it is natural to wonder what we could have done differently to avoid such an experience.

Would your spouse have remained unfaithful if you had treated them differently?

What if you had kept a closer eye on your child? Would they have had the same accident?

Would you have been robbed at knifepoint if you had chosen a different route home that night?

In reality, you will never know what would have happened if you had performed differently in a certain circumstance.

You did what you had to do. Others did what they did. The occurrence occurred.

No amount of reasoning can ever change it.

Are your negative thoughts bothering you? Are you concerned that the Law of Attraction may bring more negativity into your life? More of what you despise?

If this describes you, you have reason to be concerned. The good news is that you can turn things around with a little effort and dedication.

“The goal of our existence is to be happy,” the Dalai Lama added.

Of course, he is correct, but it is easy to forget that when we are miserable, have little money, live in a slum, have no love for life, and are locked in a dead-end job with no light at the end of the tunnel.

We can use the Law of Attraction to bring greater prosperity and pleasure via positive thoughts, actions, and affirmations: more money, a new job or relationship, improved health, and so on.

However, the Law operates in both directions. We risk attracting more of the same if we focus too intensely on what we do not want and all that is wrong in our life.

The Universe may, in fact, produce more bad things in response to your negative beliefs.

It is critical to grasp this, as well as the fact that the Universe may be delivering you a message that you need to alter.

However, it is even more crucial to recognize that you can use the same universal energy to your advantage and gain.

The Advantages of Being Concerned About Your Negative Thoughts

As strange as it may sound, being concerned about your negative thoughts is actually a great benefit. It implies that you are at least aware of what you are thinking.

Many individuals are unaware of this. They are blissfully unaware not just of their negative ideas, but also of the unintended repercussions and risks associated with such thinking patterns.

So give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done. At the very least, you are aware of what you are thinking. That provides you an advantage. Even better, you understand that in order for things to change, you must act.

It can be difficult to shift from negative to positive mental habits.

It takes a lot of effort to break years of bad habits, negative thinking, and deep training. But it is possible, and the potential rewards are well worth the effort.

Why not do the reverse instead of being concerned about manifesting your negative thoughts? Send out pleasant vibrations and let the Law of Attraction work for you.

Three things must be done in order for this to occur.

1. To begin, you must decrease, release, and expel any negative ideas.
2. Then you must concentrate on the good aspects of your life that you desire.
3. Finally, in order to receive it, you must buy into the entire process: believe it and experience it.

Eight Actions to Help You Stop Worrying About Your Negative Thoughts

1. Surround Yourself with People Who Are Positive.

Surround yourself with individuals who, when they enter a room, brighten it up. Their positive energy will rub off on you.

2. Stay away from negative people.

Some people have an uncanny ability to pull everyone down. Avoid such people like the plague if you know them.

Do not let them get the best of you. Get rid of the whiners and groaners, or if you must, amaze them with your positivism, cheerfulness, and positive attitude.

3. Quit Overthinking

Overthinking is debilitating! Stop overthinking things and instead follow your heart rather than your intellect. A racing mind will exhaust you, so take a break!

If you are concerned about manifesting your negative ideas, meditation is one of the finest (if not the best!) approaches to adopt.

4. Investigate Meditation

It will relax your tired mind, let you think more clearly and constructively, and bring you to inner calm.

5. Be Gentle With Yourself

Some individuals truly feel awful for being happy. Do not let yourself become one of them. Instead, intentionally compliment yourself and aggressively promote and enable optimism to permeate your entire existence. “I am worth it!” tell yourself frequently.

6. Exhale!

A few deep, deliberate breaths can often help to settle a disturbed mind and situation.

7. Figure out what works best for you.

Not everything is suitable for everyone. So experiment with the many approaches provided here and use the ones that work best for you.

It may take some time and effort, but the potential benefits are limitless.

8. Please forgive, You Can Forgive Even If You Cannot Forget.

Do not let your past dictate your present. Let go of past wrongs and sorrows, live in the present moment, and go ahead knowing you are a lovely person.

The post How negative bias can affect your manifestations and creations in the physical realm first appeared on Scherise Saskia.

Your life can change in an instant. It is as easy as that. However, you can persuade it to alter in your favour.

The vast majority of people have little influence over their emotional well-being. When something nice happens, we are overjoyed; when something bad happens, we are unhappy. Our lives are like roller coasters, with ups and downs.

How can we work on becoming more cheerful in general?

To remain cool when your flight is canceled or your job interview does not go as planned? To never lose sleep over a failing relationship or to not feel lonely if you have no one to chat to on a rainy day?

Here are ten basic lessons to help you take control of your mental condition and live a better, happier life. These teachings will assist you in entirely changing yourself.

1. Develop your mindfulness and positive thinking skills.

What exactly does mindfulness imply? It implies that you concentrate and devote complete attention to the current moment, accepting it without judgment. This is currently a common practice in psychology and medicine.

When done on a regular basis, it can improve mood, reduce stress, and contribute to a higher quality of life. Focusing on the present moment allows you to enjoy touch, fragrance, physical sensations, and pleasurable sentiments.

Concentrate on the pleasure they are bringing you. It is quite successful in letting go of the past and ceasing to be concerned about the future. Your happiness is entirely dependent on you.

It is not dependent on people, your possession of goods, larger wages, or anything else. Positive thinking has been shown to increase your energy, creativity, and productivity by 30%. The key is to think positively today, rather than when you are wealthy or famous.

2. Exercise and get plenty of rest.

There have been several research conducted on the subject. Exercising generates endorphins, which makes you feel better afterwards. Or maybe simply going for a walk to the grocery. Who has not encountered someone who is not in a good mood after a workout?

What is even more crucial are your sleeping habits. The researchers concentrated their investigation on the portion of the brain that processes our pleasant ideas. When we are sleep-deprived, we appear weak, and negative ideas emerge much more than usual.

Sleep-deprived pupils were challenged to memorize a list of terms. All negative terms received the highest ratings – 81 percent. When it came to the positive or neutral ones, they only got roughly 31% of them correct.

You now understand why people are cranky when they do not get enough sleep.

3. Concentrate on yourself; what others think of you is irrelevant.

Whatever individuals do or say, or what sort of lifestyles they lead, it does not imply that your life should be the same. You are the only one who is experiencing it via your unique set of circumstances.

You are the only one who understands how it feels. Many times, we prevent ourselves from doing things we genuinely want to accomplish because we are afraid that others would laugh at us for even attempting. Or the prospect of being crucified if we fail.

It is difficult to meet everyone’s standards. Please yourself first; other people may despise or laugh at you, let them.

People love to hate. Stay out of it and let them speak for themselves. No one, except you, has the power to make you feel bad. Start caring less and less about what other people think. Quit attempting to please everyone. Allow yourself to live the life you truly desire.

4. Do not get hung up on the past.

Remember that no one is perfect, and allow yourself to progress. You must psychologically transform yourself. It is easy to get caught up in your blunders. You feel bad about how you acted and how you squandered your weekend?

The only thing you can do now is to learn from your error and move on.

Dwelling on your defects, on what you are not, rather than what you are, makes it difficult to be happy! When things go wrong, accept yourself and be gentle to yourself. It will improve the quality of your life and your overall well-being. It will also assist you in accepting others.

The same is true for harboring grudges or harboring previous anger. Allow it to go! Accept forgiveness and move ahead for your own health and peace of mind.

5. Do not be a victim, and do not make yourself a victim.

Stop playing the victim! It may draw attention and compassion to you. You’ll feel better since everything is someone else’s fault, but in the end, you’ll wreck your own life.

Without a doubt, awful things happen to good people. However, the key to preventing adopting a victim mindset is to embrace a survivor attitude. Accept full responsibility for all aspects of your life. Refrain from blaming people or making up excuses. Taking charge provides you with ultimate power and control over your own future.

6. Make an effort not to take anything personally.

It may be difficult to accept, but not everything is about you. Fear, paranoia, and insecurity might drive us to feel that the reactions of others are intended at ourselves. People might be inconsiderate, judgemental, or just in a foul mood at times.

The most common reason you take anything personally is that you secretly agree with the person who is criticizing you. When you have complete confidence in yourself and your abilities, you can simply go on.

If your detractors are correct, you must either embrace the hard reality or go on. Or, if there is something you can do about it, get started!

You cannot take things personally if you have a growth attitude. That is because you know you can get better.

When you learn not to take things personally on an emotional level, your life will become calmer, and you will be able to go on easily even on days when someone may throw dirt on you.

7. Rejoice in the wonderful things that happen.

Do not just disregard or downplay them. Be thankful for the present moment. Gratitude allows you to appreciate what you already have. Make a list of things you are grateful for and you will feel better right away.

There is no doubt that certain days are filled with setbacks, hurdles, loss, and grief. So, on the days when we are blessed and great things happen to us, no matter how tiny and inconsequential they may appear, take the time to savor them and then be inspired and motivated by them.

8. Be prepared for very little.

The most significant disappointments in our lives are frequently the consequence of unrealistic expectations.

Others are expected to treat us better than we treat them. We work out a few times and panic because we do not appear like models right away. People desire to live like rock stars, despite the fact that few can afford such a lifestyle.

Tempering your expectations can help you focus on the things that are genuinely important, reducing unneeded stress and misery. Accept life in all of its facets!

Stop worrying about what it should be and start thinking about what it is. Every good thing becomes a great surprise when you live without entitlement. Even better, not expecting anything means you will never be disappointed.

9. Be of assistance to others

Assist someone. There is an old Chinese proverb that goes, “If you want happiness for an hour, take a sleep.” If you want to be happy for a year, inherit a fortune. If you want to be happy for the rest of your life, help someone else. Helping others is beneficial to one’s health.

Even if we have too many job and family responsibilities at times, it will seem life-changing to offer our efforts to something other than ourselves or our daily commitments.

There are simple methods for you to assist others. Volunteering or contributing to those in need is as easy as listening to a friend or keeping the door open for an older person. Doing something useful and nice for others helps strengthen your feeling of purpose.

When life gives you lemons, create lemonade.

When a negative event occurs, you have a choice: you may let it cripple you or you can move on as quickly as possible.

The researchers observed that noting at least one advantage of an unpleasant event helped participants feel happier, less worried, and improved their health.

Ask yourself, “How did this experience improve me?” It will also help you feel better.

We can select what we want to focus on, no matter how horrible the circumstance is, which is really powerful and empowering. There are several amazing stories of people who created lemonade out of life’s lemons.

Finally, horrible things will happen to you at the end of the day. In your life, you will experience highs, lows, and mediums. You, like everyone else, are simply human.

It is simple, and even natural, to see the world through a half-empty lens. It is human nature to dwell on what went wrong.  However I challenge you today to,  utilize these suggestions to do the opposite! You are well on your way to remaining cheerful no matter what occurs.

Do you think of yourself as successful? If you do not, you should after reading this blog post. 

You might be closer to success than you think. Success can be defined in a variety of ways. You may want to be wealthy, famous, or just to have a constructive impact on the world. Your definition is the only one that matters.

It is completely OK to consider yourself successful right now. To be happy, you do not have to wait for your next business collaboration, an amazing new business idea, a promotion or the completion of your ideal home. Accept yourself for who you are and where you have come from. Most importantly, have fun with it. Even if you do not consider yourself very successful right now, you are well on your way.

Here are 20 indicators that you have what it takes to be a very successful person:

1. You are obsessed with learning.

You enjoy learning in one way or another. It might be books, courses, podcasts, or videos, but the important thing is that you want to learn something new. You are not continually creating excuses for not reading as much as you should. You are getting the job done.

2. You are thinking ahead of time.

You may be putting money down for retirement or putting money aside for your children’s schooling. You are making preparations in some way. You may not feel affluent right now, but by making those tiny gifts, you are well on your way to leaving a legacy.

3. You get up early.

When you gently crawl out of bed, you may not feel like you are conquering the world, yet merely waking up early aligns your habits with many of the world’s most successful individuals. You recognize the importance of the early hours and make use of them. I must say though that, I use the 28 day cycle method.  In others words I plan my working week around my 28 day monthly cycle, rather than the typical 24 hour clock.  As women this works much better.  I have a class on working with your cycle within the AndSheLived.co.uk membership, if you want to know more.

4. You have a terrific personality.

Your word has weight. You recognize the significance of treating others with dignity. Whether you know it or not, having strong character and integrity sets you apart from others. People do pay attention, and it will go you far.

5. You have a strong desire to assist others.

Many multi-million pound ideas began with a desire to assist others. If you keep that drive alive, it will carry you far. Do you want to establish your own company? Consider how you may best assist others and begin doing so. Your drive to help and serve others will benefit you in the long run.   Also visit BrandMyPassion.co.uk – for a step – by -step guide on how you can do that today.

6. You’ve failed and continued going.

You have probably heard the phrases “fail ahead” or “fail up.” Failing stinks, yet some of the world’s most renowned and successful people have failed the most. If you want to be successful, you must be willing to fail…a lot. If you are not where you want to be right now, it is possible that you have not failed enough…yet. 

7. You have self-control and self-discipline.

Everyone has some self-discipline, and we all desire more, but the fact that you recognize the value of it indicates that you are on the right course. Consider all the areas of your life in which you exercise self-discipline and self-control. Do not be so harsh on yourself; you could have more than you realize.

8. You are continually improving.

You may not feel like it, but you are always improving. If you do not feel like you are getting better, simply measure your progress backwards. Consider where you were a year, two years, or five years ago. I am sure you are further along than you realized. Self-improvement accumulates like a snowball sliding down a hill. If a little snowball continues to roll, it can cause an avalanche. Continue to learn, develop, and improve.

9. You have a generous heart.

Giving is one of the pillars of a good financial and personal life. It does not matter to whom you give. You are on the correct track if you are providing at all. Consider that non-profit organizations generate more than a trillion pounds in revenue each year. Giving is an important thing to do.

10. You are focused and motivated.

You have a strong ambition to achieve big things. You feel compelled to accomplish something significant, even if you are not sure what it is. Determine where your drive is leading you, and you will find success.

11. You have the ability to practice patience.

Many of the most successful individuals, believe it or not, are not very patient, despite the fact that virtually all of them recognize the value of patience. If you embrace your patience, it will serve you well. It is one of the most crucial values you can have.

12. You are the type of person that everyone wants to be around.

You have a positive attitude toward life. You are upbeat. We’ve all heard about the power of positive thinking, which is one of the most powerful characteristics you can have. Being optimistic not only attracts others to you, but is also allows you to recognize the positive in situations, which may frequently lead to your success.

13. You are self-assured, but not arrogant.

Self-assurance distinguishes you from many others who lack faith in their own abilities. Believing you can achieve great things is the first step toward actually doing so.

14. You have successful acquaintances.

You recognize the significance of surrounding oneself with accomplished, like-minded individuals. Did you know that your income is generally the average of the salaries of your five closest friends? You’ll get there faster if you surround yourself with individuals who make more money than you.

15. You have the ability to let things go.

You do not harbor grudges since you realize it impacts you more than they do. If you want to be successful, you know you cannot keep holding on to things that do not matter. You are a grownup who understands how to move on. It is their issue if they choose to harbor a grudge against you.

16. You grasp the power of the word “no.”

You are not scared to say “no” to engagements, but more significantly, you recognize that saying “no” to low-priority tasks frees up time for higher-priority tasks. To be honest, whether you answer yes or no boils down to your priorities. You are aware that you cannot always say yes.

17. You are well aware that you cannot do it alone.

Successful people realize the importance of asking for assistance. You know you need other people, whether it is in your marriage, other relationships, or a coach. Nobody succeeds on their own, and you know how to ask for assistance when you need it.

18. You understand how to manage your time.

You have priorities, and you create time to meet them. You know what you should do and avoid doing what you should not. You have established rituals and habits that help you live a more efficient and productive life. Most importantly, you recognize that if you cannot manage your time, you will not be able to manage anything.

You may not have mastered all 18 of these concepts yet, but you are definitely closer than you think. Being extremely successful is something that takes a lifetime to develop. Every day, you build a prosperous life. Simply keep going.

What’s the deal with your manifestation not working?! When spiritual newcomers discover the law of attraction, they ask the age-old question. You feel aligned, you establish your intention, and you and your girl, the universe, completely understand each other. You’re on a roll.

Then there is silence.

There is no manifestation. Nothing. Not even a smidge.

Hello, universe? I believed we had struck a bargain. I’m “feeling the feels,” and you’re delivering the goods, right? So, why hasn’t the genie appeared from the lamp yet?

And, to be honest, you’d be correct to expect it. Manifestations might occur in the blink of an eye at times. I’ve previously asked the universe for things, matched my energy, and lo and behold, they’ve appeared. We hear stories of thousands of pounds appearing in bank accounts overnight or soulmates opening a coffee shop within a week of each other.

But what about the manifestations that require a bit more time? When do we find out about them?

I’ve tried to draw things into my life, but all I used to get was silence. It was painful at the beginning. However, after years of successful and “failed” requests to the universe, I began to notice energy shifts and changes in how I approached the process.

When people’s manifestations are denied, the first thing they think is that they did something wrong. That they may have had too many negative ideas. They are not manifesting strongly enough. They haven’t been heard by the universe. Perhaps they are not deserving of what they have requested.

Honestly? Unless you are attempting to create something to hurt yourself or others, those are not the reasons your manifestation is not functioning. Here is what I have learned throughout the years.

YOU DO NOT FEEL COMPLETELY ALIGNED.

At its foundation, the secret to manifesting is to align our energy with the things we desire. If we want to live a happy and abundant life, the law indicates that we must elevate our own energy frequency in order to connect with other high vibrations.

To do so, we must picture how we would feel once our manifestations become ours. The love we’ll experience. Or the liberty. The contentment. Or even the sense of relief.

This is what people mean when they say “feel the feelings” – well, that old law of attraction chestnut.

But what if you aren’t genuinely aligned with what you’re attempting to manifest? For example, if you’re attempting to materialize a million pounds but have no idea what £10,000 feels like? How do you match your energy if there is no alignment?

Start small and work your way up, as I did, if you want to manifest money. Begin with £10 and work your way up to £50. Increase to £100, then to £300. After being made redundant  in 2017, I begged the world to assist me with manifesting £1300 a month. And now I’m bringing in £6k+ each month with my new business. That did not happen overnight since I needed to work on my alignment.

And always materialize for yourself, not for what you believe others want for you. This is especially true when it comes to manifesting about our bodies. I’ve had clients try to manifest missing stones when what they really wanted to manifest was self-love and respect for the body they possessed. It was cultural pressure that caused them to believe otherwise.

YOU’RE HOLDING ON TOO STRONGLY.

OK, so you’re completely connected and can vividly visualize how you’ll feel when your manifestation comes true. In fact, that is ALL you can think about. What happened to the universe with your delivery?! Shouldn’t it be here by now if you’re working so hard to materialize it?

This is referred to as desperate energy.

Holding on so tightly sends a message to the universe that there is a lack of faith. Consider ordering meals at a restaurant and waiting nervously outside the kitchen because you did not think the chef would cook it. Or standing at your door since you did not think MyHermes would deliver your Amazon package. Wait a minute…

In all seriousness, clinging to your manifestation and stressing about it will only halt the flow of energy. Some gurus recommend that you set the purpose and then release it. Do not worry about it again and give it to the universe.

Personally? Hold on loosely, I like to say.

Of course, the manifestation must be released. Have faith and believe that it will materialize when the time comes, but also consider how you may meet the universe halfway. Maybe once a week, when you’re comfortable and resting in bed with your eyes closed, see your manifestation coming true. Perhaps once a month. Display images on your vision board.

What I mean is, do not let the manifestation take over your every waking thought, and do not forget about it and never think about it again. It is a delicate balance that takes time to master, but with a little effort, you can undoubtedly transform your perspective.

YOU’RE NOT SPECIFIC ENOUGH.

How can we be shocked when we give the universe a vague command and she fails to deliver? So you want to be wealthy – but what does that mean to you? Finding £10 on the street might make you feel wealthy. 

You must have a clear image and be explicit about the specifics. It not only makes it simpler for your energies to connect, but it also means that indications and signals bringing you to your manifestation are much more visible as a result of your clarity.

When coaching clients come to me to manifest love, we begin by getting crystal clear on the traits they seek by creating a cosmic shopping list. Not necessarily a list of physical characteristics, but rather personal and spiritual traits such as loyalty, sense of humour, kindness, desire to travel, desire to establish a family, and so on. We do not focus on physical qualities because if we get too focused on finding someone with black hair to join our lives, and then your soulmate has a head with no hair, there’s a chance you’ll entirely miss him.

When manifesting a house, a cosmic shopping list might be used to specify the location you wish to reside in, the number of bedrooms, the type of the house, and so on. Let the universe know what’s on your mind and write it down. Make your points clear.

WRONG TIME, WRONG MANIFESTATION

It is a cliche, but sometimes our manifestation do not work because you are not in the appropriate place at the right moment in your life to accept it.

Divine timing is important in our lives, and there are moments when you look back and say, “Thank God I didn’t get that job,” or “Thank God I moved when I did.” Because the universe had the time arranged all along, we couldn’t perceive it until it was too late.

I now completely believe in divine timing and have trust that the right thing will arrive at the appropriate moment, when my energy is in the right place.

When you realize that divine timing is constantly at work, life becomes a lot simpler to accept, believe me.

SOMETHING BETTER IS ON THE WAY

One of the most common DMs I hear on social media is about someone attempting to create their ideal house and having it fall through.

They go see it, fall in love, it’s everything they’ve been wishing for – and they get gazumped.

But do you know what occurs following that first communication to me? A follow-up informing me that it WASN’T their ideal house, but that they’d discovered something much better and that their offer had been approved. Something greater was constantly lurking in the shadows, waiting to shine.

When a thing, person, or opportunity that resembles our manifestation arrives, we are easily duped into believing, yep, this is it! It was successful! When things don’t go as planned, we get enraged and resentful of the universe.

However, this is only a transition stage. She’s warming you up, showing you what you do not want rather than what you do. You are in the midst of a shift that will lead to abundance. Something better is on the way.

Life does not always go as planned; it is frequently a series of twists and turns, but it just adds to the sweetness when our energies eventually match with our manifestation and it comes to fulfillment.

When our glasses are steamed up by the disappointment of our manifestation not appearing, it is difficult to realize that everything was truly working perfectly all along. I guarantee you that something better is on the way. Wipe your glasses clean and prepare to view the signs.

The post What to do when you’re in alignment and find that when you are presented with something in the physical realm that you want, but do not yet have… that you frustratingly keep coming out of alignment. first appeared on Scherise Saskia.

We transmit energy into the world and get energy back as we go about our daily lives. Our thoughts, bodies, and spirits are made up of energy, which vibrates and is seen by others. Those vibrations reverberate within us and have an effect on our own energy.

This is why we may feel warm, calm, and joyful in the presence of certain individuals while feeling chilly, worried, and blue in the presence of others. We carry that energy with us, and it affects not only us, but everyone with whom we come into touch. Good energy may increase our sense of well-being, dispel worry, and improve communication. Discord, strife, and resentment are all symptoms of negative energy. Your objective should be to attract positive energy and repel negative energy.

This may be accomplished by increasing your energy level and associating yourself with good vibes. It’s easier than you think. Begin with these 9 daily keys to raising your inner vibrations and attracting good energy.

1. Pay attention to the amount of energy you’re expending.

You can’t expect to attract positive energy if you’re expending a lot of negative energy. Consider how people perceive you when they spend time with you. Do you emit a sense of tranquillity and happiness? Or are you more pessimistic?

Negative energy is sure to have an effect on your relationships. It may be subtle, but the attitude with which you approach others is often mirrored back to you. What type of first impression do you create on others?

If you seem to naturally attract others and others seek out your company, chances are you’re exuding pleasant energy. If people shun you and refuse to help you, you’re locked at a lower, negative vibration. Concentrate your efforts on the good.

2. Modify the tone of your words.

Negative thinking can be difficult to overcome. It’s all too easy to succumb to gloom or to project an appearance of apathy. However, if you want to attract wonderful things, you must allow the positive to influence you rather than the bad. “See the good side, the possibility, and make an effort,” advises the Dalai Lama. Work hard to shift the tone of your thoughts from negative to positive.

For example, you can reframe the idea “I am having difficulty adjusting to this new scenario” to “I am aware that I will have challenges with this new situation, but I am capable of devising solutions to issues and I am certain that I will adjust to these changes.” Don’t allow oneself to become engrossed in negative ruminations. Stop hunting for bad news and emphasizing the bad. Replace negative ideas with positive yet realistic words that motivate you to act.

3. Remove any bad influences.

Negative energy may interrupt your sense of well-being and deplete you of good sensations and contentment. People, places, or things that have an undesirable impact on your life are examples of negative influences. It’s possible that you have people in your life that are detrimental to your overall happiness. Perhaps their frequent criticism depresses you, or you find yourself adopting their negative behaviors.

Remove these bad influences from your life and start living the life you want to live. Examine your life for bad influences. You might be able to entirely avoid or delete some of them, which is a definite approach to get rid of that effect. Work to minimize your exposure to people who are a permanent fixture, and mentally prepare yourself before you face them.

4. Enlarge your circle.

In the same way that you should aim to restrict your negative influences, you should also start spending time with good ones. Surround yourself with upbeat, successful people who are also helpful and compassionate. Keep company with people that provide positive energy, and make a point of nurturing and protecting such relationships.

Bring your own positive energy into the circle to help generate a positive synergy. Look for individuals that will always tell you the truth and be honest with you, but not out of spite or a desire to knock you down.

5. Be open to compassion and kindness.

Small acts of kindness can have far-reaching consequences for both the giver and the receiver. According to research, individuals who are kind and compassionate to others are happier with their life, have better physical and mental health, and have stronger relationships. Giving to others produces a positive feedback loop in which the more you offer, the more great sensations you experience in return.

People who gain from kindness and compassion are more likely to exhibit these characteristics. There are several simple methods to exhibit kindness, such as writing a good message on a sticky note and leaving it for someone to find, purchasing a cup of coffee for the person in line behind you, or just smiling as you pass people. All of this contributes to your pleasure and sends a flood of positive energy your way.

6. Practice thankfulness.

Make time each day to reflect on the things you’re grateful for. You’ll be able to let go of harmful emotions and replace them with pleasant ideas if you discover modest methods to practice thankfulness. You can also practice thankfulness by listing 5 things you’re grateful for each morning. Then consider at least one individual for whom you are thankful.

You might also try maintaining a gratitude diary, where you can quickly jot down a list of small pleasures and things that make you happy and fulfilled. When you look back and realize how far you’ve come and all of the harsh storms you’ve weathered, you’ll be more grateful for what you have today.

7. Discover your inner strength.

Insecurity, self-doubt, and dread are all destroyers of positive energy. Those negative emotions sap your confidence and hinder your ability to recover from hardship. However, you have built resilience by enduring adversity; this is your inner power.

Stop paying attention to your critical inner thoughts. These reduce your self-esteem and limit your possibilities. Work on self-empowerment by channeling your inner superhero. Recognize that you are powerful and capable of handling whatever is thrown at you.

8. Align your present and future selves.

Things you spend your time, energy, and money on will have a long-term influence on you. All of these decisions will have an impact on your future self. If you want to have good energy flowing through you, you must begin making decisions that will guide you to being the type of person you want to be, with the work and connections you desire.

Ask yourself the following questions:

1. What do you want the most in the world?
2. What are your ambitions and aspirations?
3. Consider how you would like to live your life. In this ideal future, who are you? What exactly are you doing? Begin to match your current self with the self you aspire to be in the future. As you begin to take steps toward the reality you desire, you will feel driven to take charge of additional aspects of your life. The more good activities you perform, the more you will build your own favorable world. (more help on this can be found in the membership, visit: AndSheLived.co.uk)

9. Be honest in your actions.

In business, it is commonly assumed that parties are operating in good faith in their transactions. We’re all aware that we should be fair to one another. Unfortunately, we do not always adhere to these values when we deal with one another on a personal or professional basis.

Make it a point to treat everyone you meet with dignity and respect. People will be pleasant to you if you are good to them. But, more importantly, do not counterattack or react aggressively when someone wrongs you.

Perhaps they were having a difficult day, or they just responded without thinking. Reinforcing the bad will not help. Act in good faith by treating everyone with compassion and grace, even if they are not reciprocating. Your courtesy will be returned to you in the form of positive energy.

The post The energy in which you do a thing is the Energy of the outcome. first appeared on Scherise Saskia.

Energy cords are a pretty interesting notion that exists, and I’m going to explore just one of the ways they may exist (between humans) as well as one technique to sever any links that are no longer benefiting you now. (cord-cutting)

Energy cords are invisible threads of energy that connect you to other people, places, and things. These cords do not exist on the conscious level, but rather on the subconscious and unconscious levels. Despite the fact that you cannot see or feel them with your eyes, they have a significant impact on your life.

There are positive energy cords that connect individuals for the mutual benefit of both. These strands may be seen in connections between lovers, parents and children, siblings, close friends, long-term coworkers, and anybody with whom you have a strong and good connection.

These positive energy cords may be joined at the heart region, allowing energy to flow back and forth between the two people. The energy exchange is often cheerful, loving, and supporting. There may be moments when one person requires more energy than another, but typically there is a balance, with the exception of parent-child interactions, when the parent frequently provides significantly more than they receive with a kid.

Positive energy cords must be nourished in order to keep the energy flowing between two people. “How can I be more loving and helpful in my interactions with others?” is one question you might ask yourself.

Negative energy cords are the polar opposite of positive energy cords. These cords do not provide you with good and loving energy, but rather drain it from you. A negative chord will syphon your energy and deliver it to the person on the other end of the cord.

While this may appear to be a terrible situation, keep in mind that it is all taking place on the subconscious and unconscious levels. This is most likely a subconscious energy attachment that sustains them while depleting you, rather than someone actively aiming to steal all of your precious energy.

If you’re wondering if anybody has a negative energy chord tied to you (or if you have a bad energy cable attached to someone else), there are two questions you may ask to help you find out:

1. Is any of my present partnerships unbalanced?

Be truthful to yourself here. Is there somebody in your life right now who you either take more energy from than you give or who you give more energy than they give back?

If this is the case, you may have a negative energy cord of attachment with them. The next thing you should think about in order to correct this is, “How can I restore balance into this relationship?” Do you need to adjust the way you show up for the connection, perhaps by devoting more attention to it, or, conversely, by establishing boundaries so the other person cannot continue to drain you of your energy?

In some circumstances, the solution is straightforward and quick, but in others, you may want to consider if you would benefit from terminating the connection totally. Each connection must be approached on an individual basis, and there is no one proper method to address these bonds. You have to ask yourself if being in this connection with this person is serving you or if you’d be better served by not having them in your life. This is particularly relevant in circumstances of abuse or interactions with toxic people. Remember that you have the ability to select who enters your life, and you are under no duty to keep individuals in your life who do not respect you or treat you with kindness, love, and compassion, regardless of who they are or how they are related to you.

2. Is there anywhere I’m experiencing continuous, inexplicable bodily pain?

Is there anywhere you suffer regular discomfort that has no recognized medical explanation, except from your lifestyle, physical activity, or lack thereof? There might be a bad energy thread connected to this location. Energy cords may create pain since pain is our body’s method of alerting us that something is wrong.

Your body is a fascinating and sophisticated entity capable of many things, including self-healing (from some things). There is a lot of information available about the relationship between the body’s ailments and the metaphysical origins of those ailments.

The discomfort you’re experiencing might be caused by the energy cord’s “attachment.” Cords are frequently related to one of the seven major chakras and can draw energy from those areas. Each chakra corresponds to a physical location on the body.

For example, if a cord is connected to your sacral chakra, you may experience inexplicable hip discomfort. Cutting this chord can relieve pain (which is also a hint that this is where the discomfort was originating from)!

If you’ve identified a bad energy cord, you can take steps to mend it. Action can take the form of transforming the energy of the connection from negative to positive by approaching the individual and the relationship from a different perspective, establishing and adhering to limits, or severing the cord.

Please take note! Just because you cut the connection doesn’t imply the relationship is over. It might signify that, but it could also indicate that by removing a chord, you make room for a whole new, healthy, positive cord to be attached. Before you begin cord-cutting, you should be certain of your goals.

Do you wish to sever the link and remove the individual from your life? Or do you wish to cut the present cord to make room for a new, positive cord? When you begin this procedure, be clear about the conclusion you want.

Write a letter to sever a cord. This letter is intended to be written to, but not delivered to, the individual. It is supposed to be ripped up and thrown away or to be burned in a fire.

Fill up the blanks with any information you have about this person. It is not required to be empathetic or nice. Be true to yourself! Allow your anger to come out of you while you compose this letter if you are furious with this individual. This is your spot to express and release your feelings. It is your chance to put some distance between yourself and another person. It is not the time to judge yourself for how you think and feel about the person or the circumstance.

The more truthful you are with yourself, the more healing you will be able to experience.

After you’ve written this letter, you have two options: tear it up and throw it in the bin (and take the trash out if you live with this person – there’s no need to reconnect a negative chord) or burn it (safely) in a fire.

Your hands and lips are used to expel energy. By writing out your emotions, you enable them to be released rather than holding them close to you (the thoughts in your head will continue to circle around energetically if there is not a space for them to be released).

There will be a substantial shift in your energy as a result of this. You may generate a really powerful healing experience all on your own. You should be pleased with yourself for performing this type of effort. Taking control of your life and energies requires a lot of bravery and guts.

Allow yourself time and space to recuperate once you’ve completed the cord-cutting process. Often, vigorous activities might leave you feeling fatigued for a short period of time while your body adjusts. Drink plenty of water and, if necessary, take a nap or go to bed early that evening.

Be aware that when you break ties with people, certain intriguing things might occur:

The following individual contacts you:

This is because they have felt the energy disconnect and are attempting to reconnect it on some level (all of this is not conscious to them). When this happens, it’s a sure indicator that your process was successful! It is also an excellent time for you to reconnect the chord in a healthy and good manner if you so wish.

The following individual appears in your dream space:

This is also on the deeper levels of consciousness, however if the individual appears in your dreams, it might be another sign that you have effectively broken the chord. The dream may supply you with fresh knowledge about them or the connection, or it may present you with a clearer understanding of it.

There is no action:

This is also quite acceptable. Not everyone you strike a chord with will feel it, reach out, or appear in your dreams. If nothing happens after your method, it does not indicate that it did not work; it might just mean that they were likewise ready to cut the cord.

Every day, as a living, breathing human being in this great big beautiful world we live in, there are many magnificent things going on around us that are just slightly above what our usual senses can perceive.

This delicate energy is rich in knowledge and magic, and energy cords are only one of the ways it manifests and impacts your life.

The post What does ‘cord cutting’ mean? first appeared on Scherise Saskia.

There will never be a “right” time to make a decision in life. There will never be a perfect moment to start that campaign, complete that task, spend time with your family, alter your mind, or accept and embrace a new thought process. Only when we accept this can we get a lot more done in our everyday lives.

Life takes its own path, one step at a time. You cannot expect to be guided every step of the way. The finest aspect about life is that you can take chances, make errors, and eventually learn from them. If you wait for inspiration or guidance at every step along the process, you will be waiting…waiting…and waiting forever.

So, if you want to do anything, the only way to do it is to plunge deep into it and get started. 

But do you know what the most difficult thing is? Starting out.

Here are a few pointers to bear in mind as you embark on your journey:

1) Get rid of the excuses.

I’m not up to it. I’m too exhausted. I just do not have the time. It is already too late. Someone else will take care of it. I’m not gifted enough. I’m not intelligent enough. I’m not prepared. I do notcurrently have the funds. I’m too afraid. It’s not the proper moment right now. I’d prefer not to do anything. Nobody is going to guide me.

These are common justifications for not getting started on anything. We must recognize that the longer we load our heads with these meaningless justifications, the less time we have to act. We have a strong belief that we will always have time tomorrow to do today’s task. This procrastination creates a huge weight in the future.

We prefer to select the more comfortable road because it delivers a false sense of mental peace if left uncontrolled. You now understand why most people advise you to “try to get out of your comfort zone.” We will only be able to make things happen if this occurs.

2) Decide to be unique.

Make an effort to stand out. When I say “different,” I mean that you should make the most of the time you have. Surviving in such a competitive environment is difficult unless you are determined enough to make difficult decisions and follow through on them.

According to research, the most common regrets people have are not the chances they took, but the ones they did not. In particular, regrets of inaction outnumber those of action by roughly two to one. Some of the most prevalent ones include lack of assertiveness and failure to grab the opportunity.

Allow yourself to let go of the concept of perfection, the past, the future, the expectations of others, and the expectations you have for yourself. Just remember that being an anomaly in your industry will always provide you an advantage over others. You will flourish if you use that potential to your advantage.

3) Get Started – RIGHT NOW!

For most of us, the most difficult obstacle is just getting started. You must make the critical decision to take the next step. You can be as successful as you can envision if you believe in yourself and your unique qualities. It all comes down to developing that mentality and deciding to take chances by venturing outside of one’s comfort zone.

Put an end to second-guessing yourself. Stop listening to what everyone else is saying. You have an abundance of opportunities ahead of you. The entire world is listening to what you have to say. Self-criticism and self-doubt will always hound you, but the only way to deal with them is to act in spite of them.

Make use of the many opportunities provided by the information era. do not project yourself too far into the future. You have everything you need to go out and do something significant. If you’re still thinking about doing it, odds are you’re killing the notion. You do not have to be correct when you start. However, you must begin immediately.

Because there is no such thing as “correct” timing, if you’ve made it this far, now is the moment to act on that concept by really getting started. When I think back, I didn’t think I had what it took to start writing. I ultimately decided to put that thinking aside and… just start. Go for it if it seems right to you.

Begin right now!
