I think it is safe to assume that you would like more time. To me, time is the most valuable asset in the world. Time is something that we all need but cannot create more of. Time with our families, time to grow our businesses, and time to do the things we love. But there are a lot of things that rob us of our time. In this article, I will show you how I used some productivity methods to double the amount of work I completed in a week while saving myself a ton of time. 5 Days of Work Done...
Read MoreIt seems like most of the people who inhabit the earth today are happy with just getting by, getting through, and getting just enough. But you are not one of those people. You may not be happy with accomplishing less than you are capable of. Perhaps you want more and want to exceed your potential. If "good enough" is your goal, this post is not for you. There have been times in my life when I have achieved my goals and there have been many other times when I've overachieved my goals. The feeling of overachieving (and the steps to doing...
Read MoreThe desire to improve oneself is something I think we all have. But for some reason, many people struggle to become the person they've always wanted to be. Change can take time and that may be the reason so many people cannot seem to reach the goals they set or accomplish the things they desire. Although I do agree that change does take time, I also believe that there are things that can be done to move you in the right direction at a faster pace. Those things are often never easy which is why most people do not do them....
Read MoreIf you are reading this, you are either going through a tough situation or, you are about to be. We've all been there. Financial difficulties, relationship troubles, or career struggles, there are many situations that we come across in life that try their best to break us. Although these situations are sometimes unavoidable, there are ways we can benefit from them. I know what you are thinking, “There is no way that there could be any benefit from this!”. Trust me, I've said the same thing. When we are going through tough times, we sometimes want to do everything possible to get...
Read MoreMost people wonder endlessly about why their lives are the way they are. Being stuck in a job that they hate, staying in an unhealthy relationship, or never really achieving their purpose in life. These may be the results of living a life that lacks courage, individuality, and an unwillingness to aggressively pursue a better life. Instead of having the courage to face their adversities, question the direction their lives are headed in, and actively seek true success, they opt to wander the earth with no real ambition and a lack of purpose which leads them to be a victim...
Read MorePhoto © lassedesignen - Fotolia.com What does the way you speak say about who you are? I have a better question: What would you like the way you speak to say about who you are? Do you want to be perceived as intelligent, confident, caring, funny? The way speak can help you send the message you want. Ancient Greek philosophers believed that the way a person spoke, told of how wise and intelligent that person was. Even though we have so many ways to communicate in our century, we can learn a lot about a person by the way they speak and what...

Read MoreMost people try to find a way to stay motivated or find motivation to do a certain thing. Although I believe that motivation is important, the people who are trying to find it, may be looking for the wrong thing. There have been many times in my life when I have been unmotivated, uninspired, or flat out discouraged. But, one thing I have always been was ambitious. Even though sometimes I didn't know where to focus my ambition, I always desired to achieve in some way. I think the people who tend to struggle with how they are going to succeed in...
Read MoreHave you ever witnessed someone do something and you thought to yourself, “man, I wish I had the courage to do that”? The thing is you do have the courage to do that and a lot of other things. For the past 10 years I have kept many journals, logs and notebooks of my goals, dreams and accomplishments of my life.
