Mind, Body, Soul
Improving
By Mona Lease

Greetings, Gals!! Keep pushing - keep exercising - keep stretching. Be consistent - it's the key to success. Whether you do one set of the exercises from this last July...or you do three sets (no more) - keep to the routine. You can't "make up for lost time" with this.

While we're looking at Christmas with the food and New Years' and it's "resolutions" - consider the following:

How Confident People Set Themselves Up For Success:

1)Always, Always, Always Be Yourself: No matter what you want to achieve, it needs to come from a place of truth within yourself. Whatever you do, you'll go through ups and downs. To make it through this, you need to have a solid foundation of who you are.

2)Don't Believe In Limits: Once you become fearless, life becomes limitless. It's smart to know and understand your own personal limits. Dreaming big allows your mind to immediately see how you get to the outcome you desire. This allows you to pinpoint your goal and you can make a plan to get there.

3)Feed The Passion And Let It Fuel Your Work Fire: If you really want to improve your desire, you have to be willing to weather storms. If you only go through the motions and lack a burning desire, the road can become impassable.

4)Forget The Snooze Button And Get Up Early: Without sacrificing sleep, the most successful people commit to waking early. Most high-achievers get up three hours before their day actually starts.

5)Commit To A Productive Morning Routine: Take full advantage of rising early and go for a morning jog, a brisk walk, or meditate.  It sets the tone for the day.

6)Be Willing And Ready To Adapt: People behave in surprising ways. Circumstances change. Outside influences constantly transform the nature of some people's realities. The most successful people don't rigidly expect certain outcomes. They know the world is constantly changing. You may desire a specific outcome, but being willing to adapt in the face of seeming failure gives you adaptability and resilience. And this can make a huge difference.

7)Saying "Sorry" Can Be A Strength Not A Weakness: Too often people think vulnerability and admission of making mistakes is a sign of weakness. Being willing to self-reflect and openly admit mistakes makes you more grounded and genuine. You can then be open and honest to improving in the future.

8)Force Yourself To Get Lucky By Staying In The Game: By it's very nature, you can't force luck. Preparation and hard work will pay off and you'll break through to the next level. Take advantage of every opportunity and stay in the game.

9)Exercise That Imagination And Read Regularly: Reading keeps your mind sharp...if you focus on more than news articles on the internet. The most successful people take time to really exercise their imagination by reading autobiographies, fiction, classics, etc on a regular basis.

10)Know That Risks Are Inevitable And Approach Them Fearlessly: You alleviate stress when you embrace failure. You then look for ways to try new adventures and new connections.

11)Expect And Embrace Failure: Failure is inevitable. Super-achievers quickly recover and learn from each failure.

12)Get Yourself Organized: If you don't spend 10 minutes every day looking for what you need - you have more time to move toward your next goal and you aren't drained of energy over a not-needed negative action.

13)Be Willing To Do The Work: No matter how much you believe in yourself - you have to do the work. Keep the perspective of these tips. Ask for help when you need it. This way - you'll be more willing to dig deeply and pursue your passion.

The best is yet to be!!     MONA
