An Extraordinary Life...




It takes time, energy and support to build an extraordinary life and no one does it alone. Sometimes wonderful mothers help, sometimes good friends, spouses, mentors, colleagues, Mastermind members and so forth....


In the next few weeks, I am going to give you a top 10 list of things to help you build an incredible life.


Here is this month's top 10 tips:


What you focus on expands - think good things
When a great idea hits - write it down
Every day ask youself, "Is this the best use of my time and energy?"
Set aside 30-60 minutes every morning for personal development - mediate, visualize your day, read good literature, listen to inspirational CDs
Focus on purpose, not outcome - do things because you love them or they help others and don't focus on money and recognition; this will come on its own
Laugh every day - watch kids, listen to a comedienne, read comics in the paper...
Sit still - do this for 10 minutes every day; you can sit idly, write notes or daydream
Practice focusing your mind - when you do a task, pay attention to what you're doing
When you think of something negative, quickly replace it with something positive; positive thoughts are more powerful than the negative
Leave a legacy - write down what you want to accomplish before you die and do something every day or week


That's it for now...
