Worries

We worry. We worry about money. We worry we make mistakes at work. We worry about getting fired. We worry we will be lonely. Etc. Etc. Stop now. Stop!

When you worry, this is when you are pausing in your life. Think about this. Worrying is not helping anyone.

Think about what you can do positively. Think about going UP! Keep learning. Keep doing good. This is when you reduce a lot of error. Whether it is losing money, work errors, and just about everything in your life. Keep living and all these things will be reduced. Learn from all your errors.

I hope this helps. It's helping me for sure.

Create a Mission Statement

Like a business, we must create a mission statement.
Focus on what you want to be (character) and to do (contributions and achievements) and on the values or principles upon on which being and doing are based.

-Be a light, not a judge.
-Be a model, not a critic.
-Be a part of a solution, not part of a problem.

When you make a mistake, correct it and learn from it.

-7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

To Be

Focus on being instead of having.

Solutions to common everyday problems

Think of all the time losing change or trying to get the exact change when buying something. Taxi wallet or Chums Surfshort Wallet is the perfect solution. Still deciding.

I have problems with storing passwords, so a waterproof notepad would solve it.

Any more common day to day problems will be listed here!

Adding value

Value. What does it mean to you? The things you buy, the people you hang out with, the experiences you gain. Question about it. Do they make you happy or is it just something to fill up a void?

If they are just things/people to fill your time with, please make sure to get rid of them. Add more value and happiness to your life. Whether it's cooking, learning new things, gardening, painting, etc. :)
