8. Do Not Heed
7. Smile and Wave
6. Learn to Say No
Here are five more...
5. Of Course You Can
You have heard it, read it and seen it your entire life. You can do whatever you want if you believe and try hard enough. Are you doing it?
4. Eradicate the Naysayers
Never share your dreams with negative people. What is the point? If you have always wanted to play guitar and finally grabbed the nerve to buy one and take lessons, why would you then ask all your friends if they approve? Naysayers are as common as lint so what's the upside of listening to them?
3. Listen to the Right Voices
"If only I could get another thousand bucks,
I’d start my own business."
"If I have to work in that cubicle one more day,
I think I’m going to drive my car off a bridge."
"Why do we have to listen to her,
she has no idea what she’s doing and she’s the boss."
As soon as you stop listening to the negative voices and start paying closer attention to the ambitious ones, things will change immediately.
2. Trust Yourself More Than You Trust Others
I love to play golf, I don't play it near enough and I am terrible because I think too much. I can crank my driver 250+ yards, straight as an arrow, it is a thing of beauty. And it happens three times a round.
Perhaps it’s time we trusted ourselves more often. This is not about blind arrogance, it's about truly knowing our strengths and going for it.
There is a chance we would crank a lot more 250 yarders off the tee if we didn't over think so much.
1. Quit Your Whining
We love to complain, we find strange comfort in it, we join our colleagues after work to commiserate about our terrible lots in life. Perhaps it’s time for all of us to shut it.
Scientists have yet been able to link complaining to progress.
Happy New Year :-)
