Making New Year’s resolutions have become a traditional routine that people do at the end of every year. But how often did we have a resolution that lasts through 3 months into the new year?

Here’s an Easy, Effective and Enriching way to make a New Year’s resolution that sticks like super glue! This kind of New Year’s resolution has “width” and “depth” built into it, and it will empower you to take actions all year long.

Watch this short video that shows you how.

At times when I was in doubt as to how others might judge me when I wanted to do something that I believed to be the right thing to do, I was always reminded of what Mother Teresa had written on the wall of Mother Teresa’s Home for Children in Calcutta: Continue reading…

We all talk to ourselves, whether you’re aware of it or not. These internal talks come from our subconscious mind. Sometimes, our intuition try to nudge us when there’s an important decision to make. Sometimes, without being aware of it, this voice talks us out of our dreams.

To me, the most devastating word you can use to limit yourself from getting what you want is “but”.

Have you ever noticed how the thermostat works?

When you have set the desired thermal range and the temperature in the room approaches the edge of your desired thermal range, the thermostat sends an electrical signal to the air-conditioner to turn it on or off.

Eventually, the room temperature always remains at the thermal range you have set.

Your comfort zone works the same way too.

The world doesn’t pay you for what you know; it pays you for what you do. Even with scores of success principles we can easily find from the Internet, books, workshops, seminars, articles and many more age-old advices that tell us that taking action is the only thing that creates results, it’s surprising how many people still get bogged down in analysing, planning, organising and waiting for the right time when what they really need to do is TAKE ACTION.

Here’s the real meaning of: Satisfaction
