21 Behaviors That Will Make You Brilliant at Creativity & Relationships

Einstein When you see things from multiple perspectives, you realize you can achieve almost anything you want in far less time than you imagined. Yet most people have fixed and limited views about themselves and what they can accomplish. They have fixed and limited views about the resources available to them. They have fixed and limited views about time, and how long things must take to accomplish. In this article, I squash all of those limiting perspectives and provide concrete strategies you can use to achieve your goals. There are no fixed limits. Here’s how it works: Core Principles 1. Set absurdly ambitious goals “When 10x is your measuring stick, you immediately see how you can bypass what everyone else is doing.” — Dan Sullivan Goals are most likely to be accomplished when: They are intrinsically motivating. As Napoleon Hill explained in Think and Grow Rich , “Desire is the starting point of all achievement, not a hope, not a wish, but a keen pu...

One Behavior Separates The Successful From The Average

Fitness motivation A certain farmer had become old and ready to pass his farm down to one of his two sons. When he brought his sons together to speak about it, he told them: The farm will go to the younger son. The older son was furious! “What are you talking about?!” he fumed. The father sat patiently, thinking. “Okay,” the father said, “I need you to do something for me. We need more stocks. Will you go to Cibi’s farm and see if he has any cows for sale?” The older son shortly returned and reported, “Father, Cibi has 6 cows for sale.” The father graciously thanked the older son for his work. He then turned to the younger son and said, “I need you to do something for me. We need more stocks. Will you go to Cibi’s farm and see if he has any cows for sale?” The younger son did as he was asked. A short while later, he returned and reported, “Father, Cibi has 6 cows for sale. Each cow will cost 2,000 rupees. If we are thinking about buying more than 6 co...

How To Write In Your Journal To Improve Yourself and Achieve Your Goals

Camee Adams blog ***Note: I wrote this article over 4 years ago. In this article, I literally show old journal entries. It’s funny looking back and seeing where I was even 4 years ago, and how much my life has changed since then. I’ve gone from 0 to 6 kids (we adopted 3), completed my PhD, published 4 books, made millions of dollars, came much closer to God, and for the most part — created my dream life. This is one of the many benefits of journaling — getting a glimpse into your former self, who was a different person than you are now. My conviction about journaling is only 10X bigger, 4 years later. Please enjoy this article and use it to create the life and breakthroughs you want. Of all the things that have been helpful to me in personal growth and goal achievement, using my journal daily is at the foundation. Writing in my journal every single day is the glue that holds everything else together. My journal is the context for my dreams. It’s my favorite place to...

This 10-Minute Routine Will Increase Your Clarity And Creativity

(link) “Your subconscious mind works continuously, while you are awake, and while you sleep.”  — Napoleon Hill Your subconscious never rests and is always on duty because it controls your heartbeat, blood circulation, and digestion. It controls all the vital processes and functions of your body and knows the answers to all your problems. What happens on your subconscious level influences what happens on your conscious level. In other words, what goes on internally, even unconsciously, eventually becomes your reality. As Hill further states, “The subconscious mind will translate into its physical equivalent, by the most direct and practical method available.” Consequently, your goal is to direct your subconscious mind to create the outcomes you seek. Additionally, you want to tap into your subconscious mind to unlock connections and solutions to your problems and projects. Here’s a simple routine to get started: Ten minutes before going to sleep: “Never go to slee...

If You’re Too Busy For These 5 Things: Your Life Is More Off-Course Than You Think

Photo by Karl Fredrickson on  Unsplash What you need to course-correct before it’s too late. Despite turbulence and other conditions keeping airplanes off-course 90 percent of flight time, most flights arrive at the correct destination at the intended time. The reason for this phenomenon is quite simple — through air traffic control and the inertial guidance system, pilots are constantly course-correcting. When immediately addressed, these course corrections are not hard to manage. When these course corrections don’t regularly happen, catastrophe can result. For example, in 1979 , a passenger jet with 257 people on board left New Zealand for a sightseeing flight to Antarctica and back. However, the pilots were unaware that someone had altered the flight coordinates by a measly two degrees , putting them 28 miles east of where they assumed to be. Approaching Antarctica, the pilots descended to give the passengers a view of the brilliant landscapes. Sadly...
