Shawn Achor explains in his TED talk, taking five minutes each day to list three things you’re thankful for trains your mind to look for the positive.

Read, read, read

Keep a daily gratitude journal or spend a few minutes each day listing things that you are truly grateful for. Remember, Always be thankful. Reading is a fantastic way to invest in yourself, which often cost nothing. It increases your general knowledge, stimulates your imagination, and improves your vocabulary. In other words, books takes you places you’ve never been and gives you powerful ideas you have never thought about, actually books are prepackaged boxes of ideas.

Often, we get so caught up in the day-to-day activities that we fail to give attention to the most critical things. This personal strategy keeps you in shape in all aspect of your life. You need to take the time to set SMART(Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Timely) goals for business, personal, and ooo financial life. Not having any goals in your life is like driving in the dark with no headlights. You are as good as dead. Prepare a goal diary which may contain daily, weekly, and yearly goals, write down what you want to accomplish and then use an online tool like Time Tracker to keep a record of everything you do. Set Goals but also remember to smash them as well.page3image5875120
