How Can Grit Help You Stay Sober

Dealing with an addiction and conquering it is a life changing experience. But not everyone makes it out alive. Some people break down in the face of their addiction and they let the disease take hold of their soul until it’s too late, while others choose to stand up for themselves and face this adversity with commitment and resolve. There are a lot of sites on the internet that offer step-by-step programs to keep you on the right track. But even if you get your hands on the best system in the world, if you’re not gritty enough you’ll probably…

Why is it Hard to Change Yourself or Others

Recognizing that you need to change and attempting to do so is hard. Recognizing that others need to change and attempting to help them do so is even harder. But people have the false perception that change should be easy. This belief can be attributed to the media, Hollywood, and other processes of social conditioning. And if you leave these beliefs unquestioned, you’re doomed to see the world in imaginary and unrealistic ways. Whether people want to admit it or not, many are convinced by the impressions they’ve formed as a result of what they see and hear on TV…

Why You Should Personalize Your Startup

Launching your startup business is a time of tremendous excitement. You rent an office space, purchase all the equipment/technology you may (or may not) need, and you start working on your first product. You’re the happiest most driven person you’ve been in a while and everything feels right for once. You’re in a go mode and it seems like no power is this world can stop you from reaching your goals. However, 2 – 3 months into the business and as your endorphin levels (the feel good hormone) return to their normal balance and stabilize, your euphoric excitement will slowly…

How to Use Multi-Tasking To Your Advantage

There’s a lot of talk these days around the idea of single-tasking. Multi-tasking and working on a whole lot at once is distracting. And if you’re not careful, your margin of error will increase exponentially. That’s why a lot business bloggers have been focusing on single-tasking. Giving a single task your full undivided attention makes it much more likely for you to finish it faster and more efficiently. Additionally, working on your tasks sequentially instead of simultaneously reduces your risk of error and helps you get the job done. There are certainly a lot of merits to taking up one…

4 Tactics to Help You Get out of Debt Fast (#4 works instantly)

Owing money to others is a real pain in the neck. People are in debt today because of the bad decisions they made in the past. And because of their past, I’ve seen way too many people become depressed and resign themselves to the margins of life as though they’re not worthy of living anymore. So debt is not only a financial barrier to living a happy life, it’s also psychologically tormenting. Rewinding the videotape of your financial mistakes and dwelling on it will give you nothing but more pain. I understand that it takes time to accept and be…

How to Keep Your Space Clean and Orderly

I’ve always struggled to keep my place clean and orderly. It was never a priority to me. I was busy doing a lot of other things and I didn’t want to spend my free time organizing my place or cleaning it up. (I kept it acceptably clean…by a guy’s standards). I know a lot of people like that too. As long as their place is not too dirty and their clothes are clean, they won’t invest the extra time in polishing their space. But, now that I am older and wiser, I’ve come to appreciate the importance of having a…

How to Stay Focused All the Way Through

It’s very easy these days to lose focus, slack off and take the back seat. We’re bombarded with a ton of distractions from emails, phone calls, and all sorts of requests and invitations, and such distractions can prevent us from staying focused and working productively and efficiently. The most common advice given to people who are struggling with staying focused is “to eliminate distractions.” This advice comes from the belief that people lose focus when other things compete for their attention. So in order to stay focused, as the advice goes, you should control your working space and deflect all…

How to Believe in Yourself

Let me begin this post by saying that you are the writer of your story. The things that happen to you in your life, whether disappointment, failure, financial mistakes, relationships mistakes, and whatever they might be, are real things… but they’re real to the extent you let them define who you are. So making financial mistakes and losing a large sum of your money or losing all of your money and savings can cause you, among many things, to lose your self-esteem. You might also begin to suffer from depression, you become less social, and you begin to interpret your…

How Much Work Experience Before Starting a Business?

I have written a few posts on taking massive action (here and here). I’ve suggested that the best experience you can get is from going through the experience itself. I’ve also suggested that you can calibrate your vision and your approach as you go…because it’s difficult, under normal circumstances, to predict exactly how things will turn out. That post resonated well with people. However, I’d like to offer a second perspective to starting a successful business. I want to focus on the factor of prior experience and the role it plays on your path to success. 1. Smart People Learn…
