If you want to master anything in your life, then you must become the master of your own mind.
Everything begins and ends with your thoughts.
How To Become Mentally Strong...
Prepare Yourself
The best way to predict your future is to create it.
By not being prepared you make the choice of being caught in some of life's unpleasant circumstances.
May it be failures, economic losses, relationship losses, professional losses, personal losses; by not being prepared, thinking ahead, it's a choice. Here are seven questions to ask yourself:
- What do you want to do economically?
- Where do you want to go?
- What do you want to be?
- What would you like to have?
- What would you like to share?
- How much would you like to earn?
- How far would you like to go?
These are some of the magical questions you must ask yourself in order to prepare what's required to make your dreams come true!
Now you have to get serious about another subject... Personal Development
Personal Development
Personal development is striving hard to become the kind of person you want to be.
And to become the kind of person you want to be, you've got to work at it (CONGRATULATIONS you are currently in the right place).
5 years from now, you will surely become someone. The BIG question is WHO?
Some people are always pulled aside by the distractions of the distractions, but here's what's powerful...
If you have a list of high purpose things you want to have, be and do in your lifetime, it pulls you toward the future you desire.
And the more powerful the purpose is -- the stronger it pulls.
And here's the other great advantage, (if you have purpose for your future) it pulls you through all kinds of challenges and all kinds of difficulties.
If you don't have these strong purposes for the future, it's easy to get swallowed by a bad day.
It's easy to be almost annihilated by a poor month, and it's easy sometimes to almost disappear beneath the waves of a year that goes backwards if you don't do something to pull you forward beyond that year.
Develop The Ability To Act
Take Action -- when the idea is hot and emotion is strong -- is the time to act!
Take action on your ideas as soon as possible because if you don't here's what happens... it's called the law of diminishing intent.
We intend to when the idea strikes us, we intend to when the emotions are high. Yet, if you don't translate that to action fairly soon, now the intent starts to diminish, diminish, diminish and a month from now, it's cold. A year from now it can't be found.
Let Other People Lead Small Lives, But Not YOU!
Let everybody else cry over small hurt, but not you!
Let everybody else argue over non-essentials, but not you!
Deal in things that matter.
Make sure what you do is the product of your own conclusion.
Take advice but not orders.
Let everyone around you be helpful, but then put that through your own mental computer and make sure what you do is the product of what you've concluded, based on all the input.
All of us should be students of inevitability -- without kidding ourselves that if we keep up our daily practices, where will it take us in 5 years without being disillusioned.
Let's not cross our fingers and walk the wrong road!
