HOW TO OVERCOME ANY CHALLENGE YOU FACE

Image
In this article I’m going to share with all of you a method to overcome any challenge you face in your life. It’s really simple but effective as hell. The method works because I use it every single day of my life and, for now, I have no complaints about it, but rather the opposite; thanks to this method I’ve achieved many goals I had in my life and I hope you will take advantage of it too. Implement this method to your daily routine and you will be able to solve any problem you have. Why is so important to face challenges? First of all, I want to make clear this: challenges are necessary in order to grow as individuals; they are necessary to improve our skills and polish up our talents; to help us to become a successful individual in whatever endeavor we are involved in. And, above all, challenges help us to discover who we really are and what we can do in difficult situations. “Opposition is a natural part of life. Just as we develop our physical muscles through over

5 Steps to Turn Your Passion Into Your Profession

Image
Your frustrations often reveal your passions. So many people say it would be great if they could just quit their day job and pursue their passion full time, to start a business or write a book or launch a blog. But that’s all it is, talk. To those people, I say: Stop talking about it and do something. Turn your passion into your profession. Here’s how. 1. Start. Without getting too much into the psychology of the self-defeating fixed mindset, there is only one way to break this type of thinking: Shut up and act. Do something. Read the top 10 books about the subject. Personally interview a minimum of five people who are already in that industry. Buy the domain name. Write the blog. Put your money (time and energy) where your mouth is. You do not have to quit your day job. In fact you should not quit until your side project generates enough income for you to do so. The bottom line is that you must act if you want to change. You have to choose to do something different. Y

The Choice Is Yours Josh

Sometimes the right decision gets made for you. Almost a year and a half ago, we approached Megyn Kelly and her representatives to gauge her interest in being on the cover of  SUCCESS  sometime in 2016. From the outside looking in, we had a sense that the values which made her a star were pretty closely aligned with those of our readers, and in an election year, we thought she had a chance to shine bright. When the reply came back quickly, we knew how right we were—we had the perfect cover figure, and it was immediately clear how an entire issue would shape up around her. She’ll do it , the email read,  but only if it’s the November issue. There couldn’t be a better time for Kelly and  SUCCESS  to come together than now, smack-dab in the middle of election season, when the country’s big decision is on the mind of voters. Kelly knew what she wanted, and she moved decisively to make it happen. That self-assurance, clear-sightedness and bold action to achieve a goal is the im

Healthy Habits You Already Know but Aren’t Doing

1. Healthy Eating Preparing a healthy, well-balanced meal doesn’t have to be prohibitively time-consuming. Try prepping meals in advance to make cooking quick and easy. For example, chopping up a bunch of vegetables on Sunday night can give you an easy salad mix for Monday and Tuesday. Frozen, pre-made meals can be defrosted during the week. Soups, casseroles and pasta are good candidates for easily frozen and reheated meals. But be careful to avoid unhealthy addictions that supply a quick fix. A short-term, pick-me-up coffee can turn into a full-blown caffeine addiction. There is no nourishment in pizza, coffee or energy drinks alone. That kind of diet is simply not the path of sustainability. Take time to eat well ; it will save time and money in the long run.

Do Your Actions Reflect Your Values

We’ve all been there. I got into some financial difficulties halfway through my career, and for several years I feared I would lose everything I had earned. When I was in the deepest part of the struggle, I had a heartfelt talk with myself and evaluated where I was. I picked up a pencil and a pad of paper and wrote down my assets, which were good health, freedom, family, friendships, reputation, relationships, wisdom, strong work ethic, success, integrity, being a mentor,  being a leader  and enjoying lots of love—the list went on and on. In fact, the only thing I could not put on the list was money.

Being Successful Is a Personal Choice

Success is not a stereotype. Success is not an automobile. It’s not a house. It’s not a plan. It’s not money in the bank. That’s not success.  Success is the continual unfolding of   the design of our life   and pulling it off. That’s what success is.   Being successful   in whatever you want to do that makes sense to you, for you and your family. Take on responsibilities or refuse them, it’s all up to you. We’ve been given the power of choice.
