  • How to Become a HAPPIER Person in One Minute?

    Happy people are more likely to: have more friends, get sick less, enjoy their work, have better performance evaluations, sell more, make more money, and experience less burnout.

    Happy people have better relationships, less loneliness, have more social activities and are less jealous.

    Happy people are more likely to be healthier, have less hospital visits, volunteer more and are more grateful.

    Happy people feel better, do better and live longer.

    Who wouldn't want that?!

    The big question is HOW do we become happier?

  • How to Avoid Thinking Traps

    Perception is based on what you are feeling rather than what is really going on. I really believe that this is the cousin to the law of attraction. So if you're basing things on what you're feeling and you're tired and you're grumpy and you're thinking everything sucks, guess what, that's what's going to happen.

  • The 4-letter word that would let you go through anything

    Learn to hear your fixed mindset voice. You know what, those limiting beliefs?

    When they pop up in your head, you can label them. Once you label them, you can break them apart.

    We have the tendency to marvel at national talent and overlook the importance of effort.

    Surveys show that we commend people and putting the effort, but we don't actually believe it can compete with national talent.

    Recognize that you have a choice.

  • How To Turn A Bad Day Around

    Thoughts To Ponder:

    - If you build your raft before you get in to the storm, you gonna have those tools at the ready.
    - If you have no attachment to that expectation, then you don't get as frustrated and as riled up.
      You just can't get all frustrated if your expectation isn't super rigid.
    - If you are not happy poor, you are not gonna be happy rich. Whether you think you will or not, there is nothing, zero, that substantiate that.

  • How to build Resilience

    Don't label things as good or bad, We just need to stop labeling. If you label things as bad, it feels bad.

    And that's what takes you down the rabbit hole. So, you know, things are just information and they either feel good or they don't feel good and they're either what you expect or what you don't expect.  You really want to do is invest in the process, not the outcome.
    So again, it's that perception of what we think it should be.

    What is a great life?  A great life is just the accumulation of a bunch of great days and what is a great day The accumulation of a bunch of great moments and great moments are of joy and finding the lesson and overcoming and detachment. Whether you believe you're meant for something better or you believe it's the end of the world, you are right. It's just what you believe.

  • Finding Your Purpose (Where is it hiding)

    (I think) What holds people back a lot from their purposes, they think they're not good enough for it. And they're looking to be perfect at it before they can go out and say it's their purpose. I want to have really deep and enriching relationship... I want to laugh with people, I want to grow with people, I want to challenge them. I want them to challenge me, Um, I just want to spend time getting to know people. And so anyway, that's my definition. I believe it's more important to live your life on purpose. And with purpose than it is to know your purpose. So don't keep beating yourself up if you don't know what it is.
