A Minute Spent for An Hour Earned
Today’s Motivational Minute: Too busy to get organized? Then it’s even more important that you slow down a minute and work on getting organized. The minutes you spend now getting organized will be repaid to you in hours later as you are able to work more efficiently.
Spend a Minute, Earn an Hour
Don’t Carry the Bad to the Good Places You Are Going
The best way to keep yourself from achieving the life you want is to rehash, relive, and seek to revenge the life you didn’t want. You can’t be free of something if you bring it with you everywhere you go.
Take some time this weekend to reflect on those feelings and frustrations that draw your focus away from making progress. Put them in perspective, then put them behind you.
Have you found a good way to put the past in the past and focus on today and making your future? Let me know in the comment section below!

The Price of Not Being Criticized by Anybody? Too High!
Did you ever notice that whatever you do there is someone that doesn’t like it?
There’s a message in that… do the right thing and don’t worry about what others think. It’s not you, it’s them.
Anything you do will be criticized by someone, somewhere, so don’t worry about it…
just do the right thing and ignore those not worth paying any attention.
That’s not to say hearing constructive feedback is not important. In fact, for real improvement it’s vital.
The trick is to learn to increasingly hear constructive criticism from those we respect as having something important to say to us.
At the same time we need to decreasing the attention we pay to those with nothing knowledgeable, relevant, or worthwhile to say to our situation.
So practice tuning out the useless chatter of endless opinions and tuning in those whose opinion you can respect in whatever endeavor your seeking constructive criticism in for improvement. There’s an art in that. But it’s well worth learning.
And in the end it will be far more rewarding to learn than to hold yourself back because of cynical or destructive criticism. And not only rewarding you.
It is also rewarding for those who benefit from the unique value you have to offer. Too many people rob the world of the value they have to offer because they pay attention to critics.
Don’t let that happen to you or to those who will benefit from what you have to offer.
It’s not easy in the beginning, but with practice it almost becomes a game to tune out babblers while tuning in beneficial feedback.
What are your frustrations with criticism and critical people right now? How are you tuning them out without turning off input from legitimate constructive criticism? Let me know in the comments below!
Step 1: Figure Out Your “Why”
Do you really want to do that? If so, you’ll find a way. The reason most people don’t attain their goals is because they don’t have any goals. Oh sure, they have wants, desires, dreams, aspirations. Some even have a direction. But it’s the specific goals that bring us from point A, where we are now, to point B… where we want to be.
But even many of those with goals don’t achieve them. That’s often because they often make goals based upon what they think they should want, or what other people want them to want. But those goals lack the important “why” to power it from behind and push it through all obstacles and detours.
Friedrich Nietzsche said, “He who has a strong enough ‘why’ can endure any ‘how’.”
What’s the “why” behind your goals? If you don’t know, take time to figure them out now. That will save you much time from pursuing goals that will end in excuses rather than results.
What are some of the “whys” behind your goals? Let me know in the comments below!
