Eight Ways to Take Control of Your Life
Many people complain that they do not seem to have any control over their life. Well here is a big step to start the process of getting your life back. It is simple but seems hard. Are you ready for this? Here is the answer to a lot of your problems: Stop procrastinating! Discipline or self control develops synonymously with motivation. Both are key factors in getting your life to where you want it...
So what are some other things that you should be aware of to make your life better? Here is a breakdown of skills you need to be able to improve your self, your life, and the world around you. Each and every one of these skills could be the subject of a book, but today I will spare you the long lecture and give it to you straight up, see if you can absorb hard information.
One: Understand others. If you know very well how to talk, you should also learn how to listen. Yearn to understand first, and to be understood the second.
Two: Visualize it. Motivation without vision is like a boat on a dry land.
Three: Want it more than anything. Dreaming means believing. And to believe is something that is rooted out from the roots of motivation and self-improvement.
Four: Do extra, do more than is expected, go the extra mile. This is called the: X Factor. This is what will make you different from the others. When you are motivated, you tend to put on “extras” on your life like extra time for family, extra help at work, extra care for friends, and so on.
Five: You are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like you. Value your life and existence, because you’re just going to spend it once.
Six: Zero in on your dreams and go for it!!! You can’t hit the target if you don’t know what you are aiming at.
Seven: Step back and observe. When we look at a certain object, a painting for example; we won’t be able to appreciate what’s in it, what is painted and what else goes with it if the painting is just an inch away from our face, we need a larger view, a bigger perspective, take a step back and have a clearer vision of the whole artwork.
Eight: Make choices while they are pleasurable. Waiting until you are forced to make a change is painful. The only time we think of unlocking our inner power is when everything gets bad.
We reach a point in our life when we are ready for change, and a whole bunch of information that will help us unlock our power suddenly becomes apparent. Until then, something can be staring us right under our nose but we just don’t see it.
Hopefully this information in raw form will become apparent and you will have an epiphany; a sudden intuitive leap of understanding.
Be Blessed
