Knowing Your Why AND Why Not
Getting what you want in life will be two things…
It will be easier than you can imagine or harder than you ever thought possible.
The journey will be exciting and scary.
Looking back, you will be glad you did it, yet wonder if you will ever do it again.
That's why WHY is so important.
You must know WHY you are doing anything to sustain your efforts.
And it must be YOUR why, not somebody else's.
You must own your WHY, understand your WHY, and live your WHY.
Many folks are not clear on WHY, or they do it for others or other reasons.
Sometimes, you might put up with one thing, hoping you'll get something else. I’m sure that you’ve found that's not the way it works.
Remember, what you focus on expands. That means you’ll get more of putting up with stuff if that's what you focus on.
It's true. Knowing WHY you don't want to do something is as essential as knowing WHY you want something.

It’s Time To Be a Good Quitter
Has anybody ever said to you, "it's good to be a quitter?”
Probably Not. That’s why it’s so important today that you pay attention today.
Being a good quitter isn’t an excuse. It should never be an option for making things easier. Instead, quitting is a wise choice. You choose to quit when your progress has you going around in circles or has stopped.
That's when things get interesting.
Once you are committed to an idea that is important to you, can be difficult to allow yourself to quit. Stuck in a lousy job, terrible relationship, destructive behavior? Your internal sense of "Identity" will compel you to hold to the very end.
That may not be wise.
Listen closely when your inner-voice begins to sound a warning. There's no need to wait for the inevitable. Trust your gut and change your direction fast.

Stand Up, Take a Step, Repeat Recipe
It's the world's most straightforward recipe for success: Stand up, take a step, REPEAT! 
A member wrote asking how to use such simple advice best:
1) Stop whatever you are doing. Find a place where nobody will interrupt you for at least 5 minutes.
2) Focus on YOU.
3) Ask, "How is my life going?" Open your mind and let your thoughts flow to the different roles of your life. Bring them into focus.
4) For areas going well, continue your momentum. For areas of concern, ask," What CAN I do to make it better?"
5) Immediately take action based on your answers. Never stop.
5-minutes a day is all it takes to stay on track. Check in with yourself. Adjust. Keep moving.

How To Create More Time
Wouldn’t it be great if you could create more time in your day without giving anything up? 
The secret is how you prioritize the projects that are already on your plate. That requires a simple understanding:
1) Working on multiple products simultaneously only delays completing all the projects.
2) When you complete a product, not only is it off your plate, but it begins producing the expected results. This frees up time to move on to your next project.
The next time that you are trying to find more time, ask -
“What can I finish right now that will give me more time tomorrow - and every day after that?”
You will love how much more time you have in your day.

How To Create More Time

Happier No Matter What
Would you like to be happy every day of the week? Maybe it's time to start thinking like a happy person.
There's no magic to being happier.
Rose-colored glasses are not required.
Just start looking at your day-to-day life the way a happy person does.
Give this a try:
1) Accept that merely being alive means encountering occasional challenges.
2) Realize that dealing with challenges is a privilege that comes with being alive.
3) Welcome frustration. That means that you are not satisfied and are beginning to make adjustments.
4) Accept responsibility for solving your challenges. Run forward and fix them as soon as possible.
5) Deal with everything that life throws at you. Get a great night's sleep. Have another great day tomorrow.
It's amazing how that kind of mindset makes most challenges never show up in the first place.

Characteristics of Success
Could you find a mentor to help you along the way?
Every mentor I’ve ever had has validated that I possessed three characteristics for success. 
Would you pass their test?
1) Do you have a burning desire to achieve your goal?
2) Are you open to learning and ready to embrace the wisdom and guidance from a diverse range of voices?
3) Are you willing to undertake all actions to achieve your success?
Wouldn’t you want this in someone that was asking for your help? 
Walk your talk. Talk your walk. That’s a great life.
