One of the major things that keep people driving on the failure highway is their anger response to mistakes. Out of proportion to the event blowups, and taking out frustration on themselves and those around them, is a great way to keep yourself mired in failure.

- What did I do especially well today?
* What am I grateful for today?
I guess we 43Ter’s do a lot of the second part, and maybe not enough of the first part.
The brain is designed to focus on one thing at a time. Multi-tasking brings down your IQ more than smoking pot.
When I’m working on a project, I will henceforth shut off my cell phone and close my Internet browsing windows.
Did you know it’s incorrect to say “graduated college”, the proper way is to say “graduated from college”. You cannot graduate a college. You could graduate a son or daughter. It’s all about transitive verbs must act upon an object.
It’s the “HomeOwners’ Association” and NOT the “writer’s strike”. Idea being that the apostrophe “s” construct implies ownership. While it’s conceivable that the Homeowners’ own the association, it’s not conceivable that the writer’s own the strike.
Also notice that it’s “Homeowners” and NOT “Homeowner’s” as there are a group of homeowners that own the association, not just one resident.
I learned this from the grammar girl’s podcast
Learned from Get it Done Guys Podcasts.
Although I do praise my employees, I had gotten in the habit of saying MY production over the past year, MY collections over the past year instead of saying OUR or WE.
One must give credit where appropriate, and office statistics DEFINITELY fall into that category.
I really am an emotional guy. Every once in awhile I’ll read something, or I’ll see something, and I get affected.
Happens every time. If I’m alone, so much the better.
I just read the following quote:
The grass is not greener on the other side. The grass is greener wherever you water it )
For a good portion of my life, I’ve been a dreamer. Not a dreamer in the conventional sense of what people consider “good”, but a dreamer in the sense of thinking something else/somewhere else, SOMEBODY else is a better way.
It sort of tracks along the idea of being present now (another idea I think we all could benefit from). How can you expect green grass when you’re admiring some grass you can’t even water????
We can’t change the past, we cannot predict the future….we can only water the lawn in our backyard. Water those we have, water your blood, and watch that grass turn even greener than that guy next door!

Use your main keyword in the title of the blog post, preferably lead off with that very keyword in the title
What is your intent and purpose? You have to be prepared emotionally for what you might be told…
Use contact trusted sources (only your inner circle)
You have to ask for it, and be clear about what it is you want, and you have to ACCEPT it.
You can disconnect from it emotionally.
