Tips For Making Your Days Great…
The other day, I came across, “Day By Day Greatness,” an article found in July/August 2010 issue of Experience Life magazine, that had some good tips on making each day a good one by life coach, Robin Sharma that I enjoyed. Following are some of her tips I wanted to pass along:
- Read More—”Reading from a great book is really all about having a conversation with the author. Sit back, enjoy some tea, and take in some wisdom from Gandhi, Mother Teresa, Bill Gates, or some other person you respect, or enjoy. Let some of their brilliance rub off on you.
- Take Some Chances—We all need to get out of our skin at some time or another and try different things. Sure you mail fail at some things, but failure is an essential ingredient for achievement.
- Be Happier—Do more things that make you happy. Most of us stop doing things we enjoyed doing in our childhood. Take some time to write a list of 10 of your greatest passions, or things you really and enjoy and then make time to start doing them. You’ll be surprised at the results.
- Listen Twice as Much as you Speak—When is the last time that you really listened to someone speak to you? Most of us are already concocting our replies in our heads, or doing some other activity, while trying to listen. Listening intently to another, creates a connection and shows respect, and a more caring attitude.
- Be Enthusiastic—You will naturally attract more friends and encourage more positive vibes.
- Prioritize Your Schedule To Your Values—If family, or friends are important to you, make sure you allow ample amount of time to be with them and enjoy their company.
- Practice Self Care—Take time for yourself. ( e.g. exercising, massage, alone time, reading, etc.) When you feel good about yourself, you are more apt to be positive and upbeat, which will rub off on others.
Thanks for reading!
