Hustle in private, results will be amazing in Public

 I f we eat too much at home, the public will eventually notice that our stomach comes out like a balloon wrapped in cloth. If we drink too much, our nose gradually turns red and becomes a warning light to others. On the other hand, if we make an effort and eat and drink less privately, the public will sooner or later notice how thin and healthy we look. Even Superman and Spiderman and Scarlet Pimpernel can not keep their heroic deeds completely secret. After a while, their boyfriend or wife and some friends discover who they are. They sooner or later end up with a small but dedicated group of fans. By doing the things that build character we build and strengthen our self-esteem, our confidence and our success." If we practice very privately for a grade in martial arts, we shine in public when grading day arrives. If we do not hustle, we fail in public or at best get confused. To tackle this issue, do your homework Doing homework usually involves keeping our promises to ourselves,...

Stop worrying about past, feeling guilty and regretting

  Don't spend time worrying about the past and feeling guilty about what you didn't do. There is nothing you can do about it, so why waste time thinking about it? When I reflect on my past I am shocked at how much time and money I have wasted. If I were to spend most of my time regretting this, I would feel too depressed to try and achieve anything useful in the time I have left. Some people become suicidal when they repeat sad or disappointing events from their past. These can dominate their thinking so much that they no longer wish to live. Instead, focus on your future and how you can improve it. Visualise the future you want and then take action to achieve it. This future-oriented attitude will free your mind of a lot of the burden of the past that can push you into a state of hopelessness and helplessness. When you are facing a problem, do not spend too much time thinking about the problem. Instead, focus on the solution and imagine what it means to have overcome the probl...

Self Confidence. You vs You.

We were having a conversation with some guys and one of the questions that I was asked was, "Tell me about confidence. What can I do to improve my confidence?" And I said, you know, everybody is asking for like a five-step process to having more confidence, right? But, to me, confidence stems from a couple of different things. I am going to talk about two different things, one of them being how to be more confident.  No matter you do, a person who's a criminal who's extremely confident, a man who's a player who's extremely confident with women, a businessman who's extremely good at what he does with business, a person who runs anything; a coach, an athlete, anybody who's extremely confident at what they do, it's not just a natural state. Yes, some people could naturally come across as more confident than others and it could be from positive reinforcement, from their families telling them how amazing they are, or a good mentor or a wife that tells t...

How to Deal With Demotivation in a COVID World Without Going Mad

How to Deal With Demotivation in a COVID World Without Going Mad My wife’s going on her 6th month of WFH (work from home) with no end in sight. My own schedule also changed dramatically and I found myself with more time, especially in the mornings. The result – a whole lot of lunches and conversations with my lovely wife. From talking to her and clients in similar situations is that the WFH situation isn’t quite the paradise people once thought it was. According to Gallup research, 54% of office workers would be willing to quit their job for one that allows them to work remotely and that was before the pandemic. With all the uncertainty and fear of Covid-19, it stands to reason that that number is even higher today. Maybe it has something to do with waking up early, getting decked out, commuting to their office, rushing to finish on time in order to be able to get home to cook dinner. After all, the WFHers get to wake up late, put on sweats (not my wife), and not have to worry about cr...
