9 Tips to Leading a More Positive Life
Keeping positive in a negative world is sometimes
a challenge. Other people are ‘sad sacks’, moaning and
groaning about the weather, the lotto results, the traffic, the
price increases, the government. It’s easy to pick up on the
negativity and the doom and gloom they want to spread, but the other
side of the coin, is being positive and a success.
I t takes between 21 and 28 days to change a habit.
You alter one and there’s another habit you need to change.
Your success is stepping stones in progress, but it's positive and
you will succeed. Maybe not overnight, but then you’ve heard
the old words “it’s taken my fifteen years to become
an overnight movie star.” Our top sports people
have been practising for years. It's the same with our life. Practice
leads to improvement. The difference is the movie star and sports
heroes have coaches, we just bungle along in life and expect successes.
If that's what you want in you life…. here's a few tips that
will assist you. Copy them and put them on your office board or
at home on the fridge.
- Turn off the television - Negatively is rife in life. It’s
in the media, magazines,
people. If you want to be positive you need to rid yourself of
negativity.
- Achieve Results - You need to have a goal,
dream or desire you’re working
towards. Maybe it’s money in the bank, increased cash
flow in your business. A holiday,
new car or ten new clients. As the saying says in the Wizard
of Oz. Any road will take
you there, if you don’t know where you’re going.
- Overcome Fear - Fear is False Evidence Appearing
Real. There’s a great book
Feal the Fear and do it anyway by Susan Jeffries. Imagine
not attempting to walk when
you were young. You wouldn’t want to live without it now
. . . but you didn’t give up.
You tried and succeeded. Take small steps to over come your
fear.
- Improve your Attitude - My Attitude postcard
reads: Past, Present, Future,
Every second you have a choice. Choose Positive and be your
own Success Story. It’s
true; you can only think one thought at a time. Make it a positive
one.
- Gain Confidence - Walk tall, stand straight,
wear your best clothes, use eye
contact (careful with some cultures) Smile!. Robyn Henderson
the International
Networking guru says Fake it until you make it. You might have
butterflies in your
stomach, but no one can see them.
- Improve your communication - Join Toastmasters
and at the same time gain
confidence. Attend assertive communication courses, learn
about confident
communication and remember Hello and Thank You.
- Become Interactive - Just do it….is
the Nike advertisement. Make the
appointments and approach new clients, meet new people, join
social clubs. Life is for
living.
- ‘Do’ Victory - With every small
success reward you. After ten sales calls, have a
coffee, after a completing a task well, find a way of patting
yourself on your back.
Acknowledge that you’ve achieved something.
- Get Enthusiastic - Find the ‘it’s
great to be alive’ feeling. Disco ver your
passions, experience and enjoy them. Smell the roses, enjoy
good health, eat well and
find the vitality in life from within. You’ve got it, but
it’s up to you to discover it.
Everyone has free will, the choice is yours!
