At times, down times happen. Remember this is temporary. When no one believes in you including family and friends, still keep on pushing forward. Do you want to look back on your life and wish you would have done what you yearn for most? This the question staring at you every day in the mirror. You have to decide what is most worth it to you in your life. On the strategies in which dont work, scrap them and start over fresh with a new slate. Make sure you take great care of yourself so you can do as much as possible to enjoy life now.
As You Get Opportunities, Bring Others With You
In each opportunity I see, I ask myself who will benefit most from this or who fits well into this. You never know, you may need an opportunity or looking for one and it shows up at the right time you need it. I believe you have to give before you receive. Others have to see you are worth the effort in how they are benefiting from your relationship first before wanting to welcome you to their circle. Decide to get to know others and let others in because you never know who could be knocking on your door with the opportunity you have been looking for years to get into. It is a small world. What you plant, you will reap. Plant the best you can to see it grow for years to come.
Learn To Say No
In keeping your focus on what you are looking for and working toward instead of easily being sidetracked, the goals you have will become more clear in chipping away at them. With all of this technology and connection, it is a distraction and you can't offerd it financially, mentally, and physically. In the same mindset, when you have to stick to a certain way of eating for your health, you understand this is for your own benefit so you can be and do better instead of having too much down time by neglecting your body. Remember you only have one body, you must take care of it. I have made mistakes myself, however, every day it is a choice to do the best I can. Study the people who are over 100 years old and adapt your life to live a higher quality life so you can feel at the top level as much as possible.
Keep On Chipping Away
When you are first starting hardly anyone is coming, Remain dedicated and focused on how to grow the group you are starting. See what you have in your mind as real and benefiting as many people as possible. There will be those who show up faithfully and those who cancel at the last minute everytime. Don't take it personally when the cancel. Keep on aligning with those who have the same values as yourself. Be patient and put in the work. Failure is the learning off of the choices you have made. Ask those people who are your network, what would you like to see and the best times to meet, that way. You can improve, ask and observe what do work and what doesn't.
Choose Your Thought Patterns
Observing yourself and others you can see the contrast in differences. The choices we make are the outcomes we see. It is amazing to see the huge difference from the wealthy versuses the people who dont have much. Also the order of individual homes compared to the disorder. The same choices in the health. Some conditions we don't have control over and others we do. It brings the question, what is going on in their mind? If we feel trapped into any certain situation, why not think about and excute decisions to overcome the situation being in. What you last did will be the last thing you will be known for. Make sure you are at the best you can through the effort being put in.
Make Time To Heal/Recharge
Make sure you give yourself time to heal. No matter how hard you work eventually if you don't your body will go down. I have learned this the hard way. If you work 7 days a week you can do it for a time. Your body and mind will need to regenerate so it can recharge. So many people who have started companies, businesses, and celebrities know this once they have worked for so many years. Kevin Hart worked for 20 years plus just to make as big as he has. There are many more stories we don't hear in which happen in the world. By recharging you will become more productive and give more then comparable in when you don't. It is a high priority to be and do our best. This is a step in the right direction.
Open Doors For Others
I was once talking to a lady who said, I need an attorney in my network. I said, I bet you do, you just don't realize it. We talked for a little longer then it hit her. A while back an attorney was helping her with her business. So I said "See, You have an attorney in your network" When you take the time to honestly listen to others in which it seems so rare these days in this microwave mentality society, It sets you apart because we are a fast paced global world. By pulling out the abilities of others and talents you see in them, It brings a new chapter to their world they didn't see. This builds relationships over time with respect and long term relationships is everything in sustaining a business and always having personal connection with whom come into contact with you.
Leave On A Good Note
You never know when your last day is or your loved ones. Make sure you tell your loved ones you love them and hug them. Forgive your family before the night ends. You want to have closure with each encounter It may be the last time you do. You may not wake up the next day. Be grateful you have a new opportunity every day along with the energy you have. Cherish your great health and take care of your body the best you can. You want the best life possible. When you feel the best around your family you are able to enjoy being with them. Make sure you leave on a good note every day with forgiveness.
Work On Taking Better Care Of Yourself
We all have things we wish we didn't do in taking care of ourselves. Including not getting enough sleep, too much caffeine, not enough water, consuming too much sugar. Taking care of yourself today means a better tomorrow and for the long term. The sooner you eat better, drink enough water, and getting enough sleep, the better. Delaying this, with the health issues you have now will only compound later on. One step at a time is closer to where you need to be. Even with one step, you will feel the progress and reap the longer term benefits.
Decide To Treat Others With Respect
Your reputation is everything in working with others. How you treat those who are around you will reflect back to you. No matter how people treat you, you are the one who has to decide how to respond. Decide to set the tone instead of being overpowered by the influences in the environment. By quiet, when you catch yourself about to say something in which is going to damage, the image your portray to those who matter the most. This is small world and you never know where at some later point where you may encounter the same person.
