12 Rules to stretchyourself

If you are ready to start living and creating the life you want take a look at your current situation and ask yourself what's wrong with the very moment that you are in. You should find nothing wrong in the present moment and let's face it you can't turn your mind off from thinking about things you want to achieve and have doubts and worries, but you can start thinking differently, so here are some rules to help you STRETCH yourself to achieve your goals

  1. Stretch Yourself. I believe that success doesn’t come when we're in our comfort zone. I hear people say, "But I'm afraid of what would happen if I fail." My response to that is simple: "How would you know if you don’t try and give it all you have?"
  2. Never give up. Almost nothing works the first time. Just because what you're doing does not seem to be working, doesn't mean it won't work. It just means the way you're doing it’s not working.  When you’re ready to quit, you’re closer than you think. There's an old Chinese saying that I just love, and I believe it is so true. It goes like this: "The temptation to quit will be greatest just before you are about to succeed."
  3. Whatever worries you, whatever you imagine would be the worst thing that could happen, wouldn’t be as worse as you not trying. “Very seldom will the worst consequence be anywhere near as bad as what you mentally perceive it would be."
  4. Focus, Focus, Focus! Proverbs 23:7, "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he."
  5. Take things a day at a time. No matter how difficult your situation is, you can get through it if you focus on the present moment. You can get through anything one day at a time.
  6. Keep it Moving.  Never stop innovating. Never stop improving yourself. The moment you stop improving, you kill the momentum of change. Your goal should be to better yourself each and every day, in some small way. Remember the Japanese concept of Kaizen:  “Small daily improvements eventually result in huge advantages.”
  7. Be Decisive. Never second guess your heart. Remember what General George S. Patton said: "A good plan violently executed today is far and away better than a perfect plan tomorrow."
  8. Measure everything of significance.  Anything that is measured and watched, improves.
  9. Never expect life to be fair. Life isn't fair. You make your own breaks. You'll be doing good if the only meaning fair has is good for you
  10. Solve your own problems. Masura Ibuka, the co-founder of SONY, said it best:  "You never succeed in technology, business, or anything by following the others." There's also an old Asian saying that I remind myself of frequently. It goes like this:  "A wise man keeps his own counsel."
  11. Don’t take yourself too seriously, laugh, have fun, enjoy life. Lighten up. None of us are in control as much as we like to think we are.
  12. Appreciation.  Find reasons to appreciate the things you have in life. After all, you're really lucky just to be alive. Life is short to be sad, complaining, worrying, and wanting more just to feed your ego (Edging GOD Out). You only have one life to live, so you enjoy every minute of the ride.

Thanks for reading this and I hope that this is helpful in your journey to achieve the things you want in business and life.
