Simple Steps for Personal Growth and Connection
In the hustle of daily life, small actions can make a big difference.
This guide suggests three simple focuses for today:
1 focus for you
1 focus for the future you
1 focus for a loved one
1) I believe in you.
2) Grab a book.
3) Beware of your ego.
Specifically:
1) If no one else told you this today, find a mirror and say it to the person in front of you. Do this repeatedly and you’ll see all the excuses you catch yourself saying, will gradually disappear. You can’t cheat yourself anymore. Believing in yourself, helps you to take action towards your goals.
“Believe, really believe you can move a mountain, and you can…When you believe I-can-do-it, the how-to-do-it develops”. – David Schwartz
2) Grab the nearest book. Go to page 100, line 5. What does it say? Was it interesting? Did you keep reading? You can share the line with me. 🙂
Mine says: “What can I do to help them to become more effective?” – David Schwartz, The magic of Thinking Big
3) Put aside your ego and think how the situation is perceived from the other side. How is the way you are behaving, affecting the other person? Is it something you would accept? If not, then why are you doing it to the other person? Think before you say or do something.
Is it true? Is it kind? Does this have a purpose?
