- Set clear intentions before activities to achieve desired outcomes and provide focus amidst life's chaos. A daily routine creates structure, focus, and healthy habits.- Monitor your energy level without judgment to understand what lifts you up or drains you. You can shift your own energy through practices like meditation, exercise, music, etc.- Seek the positive, even in difficult situations. Balance negatives with gratitude and focus on beauty, laughter, kindness, and things that bring you joy.- Avoid making assumptions about others' motives, backgrounds, or inner worlds. Instead, listen without judgement and be open to new perspectives. - Intention creates a lens to view situations and make better choices. Routines reduce stress, improve sleep, motivation, and time management.- Positive energy enhances productivity, relationships, healthier choices, immunity, and resilience. Low energy leads to lack of motivation.- Seeing positives reduces anxiety, boosts optimism and motivation, improves relationships and thinking, and increases happiness.- Not assuming avoids misunderstandings and conflicts, enables connections and empathy, and leads to better decisions and personal growth.- Practicing awareness expands compassion, gain clarity, and creates authentic connections and purposeful living. - Relationships are life. Emotional intelligence is recognizing emotions in yourself and others and managing behavior and relationships.Links to the two books recommended.
