REMEMBER THE RULE OF 21.

As we all know that it takes 21 days to develop a new habit, yet most people give up on creating a positive life change and after only the first dew days when they experience the stress and pain that is always associated with replacing old behaviors with new ones. New habits are much like a new pair of shoes; for the first few days, they will feel uncomfortable. But if you break them in for about three weeks, they will fit like a second skin.

As human beings, we are genetically programmed to resist change and maintain steadiness. The condition is also known as homeostasis, evolved naturally over time which means our ancestors could survive constantly CHANGING CONDITIONS. The problem is that the mechanism works to keep things as they are even when more favourable possibilities exist already. And that is why we have such difficulty adopting new habits and overcoming the gravitational forces that prevent us from moving to higher levels of living (yess I'm totally talking about them).

But just the way rocket uses more fuel during the first few minutes after lift-off that it does over the days that follow when it cover more than half a million miles once you get past those first 21 days you will find that staying on with new habits will be far easier that you might thought. 

Take time to examine yourself and study your personal habits and promise to make changes if necessary and "ensure that your habits MOVE YOU FORWARD RATHER THAN HOLD YOU BACK".

KINDEST THING TO DO FOR YOURSELF!!!

Image
The kindest thing you can do to yourself is to wave a goodbye with a smile on your face . You always hurt yourself by trying to hang on to someone that doesn't want to be held onto.  "LET GO" could be tough when you want to held on them. You always try to save your relation with that person though you know they keep on hurting you again and again and surprisingly to you it seems okay to beg for that person to stay because you think that it is the only right way to love someone throughout your heart but for once try not to beg for it. Let it be the way it is, once you lose your emotional attachment to that person you'll realize how ordinary they were. It was just you who made them SEEM SO SPECIAL . Do you take care of the things which doesn't belong to you??? No right. Then why to keep chasing that person that doesn't belong to you anymore.  "LET IT HURT and then LET IT HEAL" because when we stop people to choose us then only we make a room for th...

FIND THREE GREAT FRIENDS!!!

Image
Cultivating great friendships is one of the surest ways to find more happiness and joy in your life. Recent studies shows that those with wide circle of friends and family live longer, laugh more and worry less. But friendships, like all other good things in life, takes time, energy and commitment. Having said this, few things eill offer greater rewards. As one philosopher many centuries ago, "THERE IS NOTHING IN THE WORLD MORE VALUABLE THAN FRIENDSHIPS . Those who banish it from their lives remove as it were the sun from the earth, because of all of nature's gifts, it is the most beautiful and the most pleasing".   As I grew up, my father often said that the person with three great friends is a RICH PERSON INDEED. I have never forgotten this advice and encourage you to take it to heart as well. To build deeper friendships, you must be willing to move out of your comfort zone, break the ice with people you might not know very well and show sincere warmth . If ...

REWRITE YOUR LIFE STORY....

Image
One of the most wonderful things about time is the fact that yoy cannot waste it in advance. No matter how much time you have squandered in past, the next hour that comes your way will be perfect, unspolied and ready for you to make the very best of it. No matter what happened to you in the past, your future is spotless.  Realize that every dawn brings with it the corresponding opportunity to begin a completely new life. If you so choose, tomorrow can be the day that you start getting up earlier, reading more, exercising, eating well and worrying less. As one author named Ashleigh Brilliant has observed, " AT ANY MOMENT I COULD START BEING MORE OF THE PERSON I DREAM TO BE -- BUT WHICH MOMENT SHOULD I CHOOSE??" No one is stopping you from opening your journal and, on a blank page, rewriting the story of your life. This very minute, you can decide the way you would like it to unfold, change the central characters and create a new ending. The only question is will yo...
