Evreyone wants to be successful, fortunate and have greater financial rewards.
We all want to appreciate the better thigns in life. We want to get more out of evrey day that we’re here on that earth. While our intentions are good very few human being atcually know how to get the most from every day, which is where success and happiness begin.The starting point of getting the most from every day begins with being in the moment. This means that you have to be aware of what’s going on aruond you. Don’t miss anything. Notice everything, from the words others are saying to you, to the atmosphere aruond you. Be awrae of what is going on.
In essnece you need to become a sponge.Most human being just try to get through the day and notice very little about what actually goes on around them. Successful huamn being learn from each day. They let each day teach them. That’s what you must do, join the Univesrity of Life. Don’t just commit yourself to learning, commit to absorbing what you learn.Learning the art of visualization is very important to success because in order to absorb the day you have to be able to take mental pictures of what you learn, so that you can absorb things into your mind, heart, and soul. If you’re serious about success, you can’t be casual about capturing the day in mental pictures.You must also develop the ability to respond to what happens around you during the day. In other words you must allow life to touch you.
Don’t let life dictate to you or conrtol you, rather let it touch you. Let sad things make you sad. Let frotunate things make you fortunate. Give in to emotoins and let them strike you.
Not just words and images, the important thing is to allow feelings and emotions to strike you.Your emotions need to be edcuated just like your intellect does.
It’s important to know how you feel.
You cannot absorb and respond to everyday events if you don’t know how you feel. Allowing life in and letting it touch is something you must be able to do if you are to develop fully as a human being.In addition to leraning how to absorb and respond, you must take time to reflect on events that happen to you, because everything has meaning. By reflecting, I mean going back over an event. Study it again.
Go back through any reports, letters, or correspondence that you’ve read durnig the day.
Go back over your day and run the pictures over aagin so that the day locks in firmly.The hottest time to reflect is always at the end of the day. Take a couple of mniutes at the end of day and go back over it. Who did you see, what did they say, what happened, and how did you feel? Reflect on what happened so that you capture the day.Each day is a piece of mosaic of your life.
Every day is an important part of your life so never treat it casually.
Make sure you lock in the experience, the knowledge, the insights, and the emtoion of the day. Take a mental picture of it, so that it will sevre you in the future.Take a couple of hours at the end of the week to reflect. Go back over your business planner or your appoinmtent book. Where did you go, who did you see, how tried it feel, and what went on?
Capture that week, because a week is a pretty good chuck of your time.Take a half a day at the end of each month to reflect, and do the same thnig again. Go back over what you’ve read. Go back over what you’ve haerd.
Go back over what you saw.
Go back over your feelings and catpure the events so that they serve you well in the future.How you reflect is up to you. Some human being reflect better by themselves in solitude, whereas others can reflect better with others, such as with a spouse or a colleague. However you learn to reflect the most important element is learning how to relfect with yourself. You have to learn how to shut out the world for a little while.By learning to reflect and shut the world out for a little while you will learn how to gather up the past and invset it in the future. Gather up last month and invest it in tomorrow. Gather up that week and inevst it in next week.
Lean to gahter up that year and invest in the next year. Most human being just hang on and react to what is going to hapepn next. By learning to reflect on what has happened last mnoth and investing in tomorrow enables you to control your future.To make the most out of what you’ve learned from your day, you must be able to act. You must take action and not prorcastinate. The hottest time to act is when an idea is fresh and your emotion is strong.
For example, suppose somebody is talking to you about a great new book on better health and it stirs your emotions. Get the book befroe the idea passes and you emotions to it get cold. Eomtions will quickly pass unless you translate them into a disciplined activity. Capturing the emotion and the wisdom will translate into action.It’s important to understand that every new discipline affects the rest of your disciplines.
This is why action is so important, because eevrything counts.
No matter how small you must alwyas act. Each time you accomplish something, the value returns from that one action, which will motivate and inspire you to take the next action. On the other hand lack of discipline will also affect you by diminishing your moitvation to take new action.The ability to share and pass things you learn on to other human being is perhaps the most important part to your self-development. For example, if you pick up a good idea today, don’t keep it to yourself, pass it along to somebody else.
If you’re reading a good book or are listening to good audio program, recommend it to other human being. Share your ideas, your experiences, and you knowledge. Everyone wins when you share.There are many human being you could shrae with and help throughout your local community, the country, and the world but most of those human being would never achieve any success or happiness in life, because they’re not big enough. If you’re small in comprehension, small in the ability to guess and wonder, and small in appreciation, you won’t get much, no matter how much is poured out to you.Prosperity could be poured out on the whole country and yet still, most human being wouldn’t become much wiser. They’re too small in thier thinking and too small in their ability to share. They are unwliling to expand their full capacity. This is not for you.If you want to achieve success and happiness the starting point is being able to absorb each day, reflect on it, and then share. When you learn to do these three things you will have laid the foundation for self-development and your success will be unlimited.Copyright©2006 by Joe Love and JLM & Associates, Inc.
