[success]Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it. ~ Maya Angelou[/success] Some days you’re just going to be stumbling around in the dark. Some days everything that could go wrong does. Some days life seems like an endless roller coaster ride, up one minute and down the next. Let’s be honest. Even a Pollyanna like me has days that are pretty disheartening. But I have a few tricks up my sleeve, so the next time a rotten day arrives just keep going…and to make it a little easier here’s a few things I like to remember, to help turn the page on those disheartening, down days. 1.

The 7 Success Principles That Matter

By

Successful people weren’t born that way. So how do they do it? They’re just willing do the things that lead to their dreams. And then they do it again. They imagine what their future could be, and then they work every day toward that vision, or that purpose. Regardless of their profession or life dreams, I’ve noticed seven common principles highly successful people have trained themselves to do that the rest of us are capable of doing too. 1. Set up a world class belief system You don’t have to be saddled with a set of beliefs that are more about survival than success. Many of us were programmed to avoid pain at all costs which means living with a ‘playing not to lose’ mentality. A belief system that doesn’t serve you well. If you want something, put in the effort. No matter your age, or upbringing or your lot in life, invest…

6 Zen-like Habits To Inspire Success and Contentment

By

“Learning to let go should be learned before learning to get. Life should be touched, not strangled. You’ve got to relax, let it happen at times, and at others move forward with it. ~ Ray Bradbury” Very little separates the highly successful and contented people from the average. Every day you’re called upon to make lots of decisions. What you’ll use your time for, where you’ll focus your energies, what’s important to you, who you’ll spend time with, even to the simplest things like what to wear. There’s nothing more important to the success and contentment of your life than these little daily decisions. They are the makers and builders of your life, the creators of your future.

Give Yourself A Fighting Chance For A Better Future

By

[success]Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance and when you get the choice to sit it out or dance, I hope you dance ~ Tia Sillers and Mark Sanders[/success] It takes courage to look at your life and decide this isn’t the way you want to live.  It takes courage to say no, to release the familiar and embrace the new. Yet, if you want a better future, one that’s different from the life you currently have, don’t be afraid to let go and take a risk. It’s the only way to see a life you didn’t know was possible. Most people aren’t living the life they want because they haven’t committed enough to a vision, or worse, they haven’t yet chosen a vision for their future, one that’s valuable enough to let nothing stand in their way. Don’t sacrifice the promise of wonderful new experiences for the security of…
