5 Easy Steps to Gain Back Your Confidence, and Belief

I hear you saying, “But I can’t have that (fill in the blank), because (fill in the excuse).” How about “I’m too _____ to ever be good at _____.”

How to Direct Your Life to Fulfill Your Vision

Will Smith plays a conman, in the movie Focus, who teaches a young con artist the skill of redirecting people’s focus so you can pick their pockets.

In my twenties, I learned about this skill the hard way, by getting cheated while exchanging money. It’s not an easy lesson to forget but somehow we don’t apply it to the bigger picture of our lives and the time that stolen from us every day, when we fail to choose what we focus on.

How to Dominate Your Emotions and Choose the Life You Want

How would you feel getting being paged over the loudspeakers in a public area, such as a mall or airport, to come to the information desk? Many people say their first reaction is that something bad must have happened.

That reaction is learned from experience and what we were told in life, it has become automatic. The emotions take over and until something happens to contradict it, most people would operate with that assumption and get a little stressed out, until it was resolved.

Emotions have important roles, such as warning us of danger but it’s dangerous to simply react. See what you can do about this.

Are You Stuck in a Mess You Made? So? Start Over!

I’ve messed up in everything from cooking a pot of rice, to nurturing a healthy marriage. What I’m about to say may sound calloused, but there’s no shame in letting go of the past, when you tried but really messed up.
