Are You Ready...
Are you living the life you dreamt about
when you were younger? Chances are, you got so busy living your
life that you forgot about living your dreams. You can and you
will, if you make the commitment. It is a work in progress, so
you might want to start now.
Here are a few strategies for living your
dreams, staying stress free and enjoying every minute of
it.
Get Organized - I know
life seems hectic between work, family, and the stresses of
life in general. The more organized you can be the more clear
your mind will be and you may even realize that you have a
little more free time than you thought you had.
Schedule Fun - It is
crucial that you make absolutely sure that you schedule fun
into your life...whatever fun maybe to you. Part of the reason
why so many people struggle with depression is because they are
bombarded with stress and negativity and they give up on the
things that used to bring so much enjoyment to their lives.
Write down your fondest childhood memories, relive as many of
those activities as often as you can.
Think Big - Don't get
caught in the trap of mediocrity, you have as great a chance as
anyone to do something absolutely amazing with your life.
Did you know that immigrants have a much higher chance of
becoming a millionaire in the U.S than American born
citizens?
Write down your goals, weekly, monthly
and yearly. You may also want to write down your ONE HUGE GOAL.
Something remarkable, like Start a Charity and Raise 50 Million
Dollars.
Daily /
Weekly Positivity - Everyday you
are infiltrated with bad news, problems, stress, and
pessimism. Unless you live in a bubble, you can not
prevent this. What you can do is fight back with daily / weekly
positivity. With the internet you have the ability to watch
what you want, when you want. I watch Jim Valvanos' Espy speech
just about every day.
You can also use music. There are certain
songs that will trigger your emotions in a positive way. Put
them on a play list or cd, and when you are feeling down, pop
it in.
I do not really endorse watching hours
and hours of television. However, there are a few shows that I
watch for positive reinforcement or just a good
laugh.
Despite the blatant product advertising,
Extreme Home Make over will give you a quick kick in the butt
and make you feel like you should be doing more. Check out
Secret Millionaires as well, a cool show about Millionaires who
go under cover and live in some of the toughest neighborhoods,
to find people in need and present them with a financial gift.
Again, these shows are not perfect but if they inspire
people (like myself) then I'm all for it.
You have complete control of your life
and your destiny. The decisions you make will shape the legacy
of your life.
I only hope that any of the words, or
videos on this site, inspire you.
Sincerely,
Keith Cannone
