THE EURweb FREE-4-ALL PAGE/BOARD: Talk about the stories we didn't cover in this issue.(April 21, 2006)
Just like the headline says, this page/board is where you can discuss the stuff that we didn't cover in today's issue. (It's sort of like feedback with a twist) Remember, NO name calling, racial taunting, graphic sex talk and vulgarity in general, PLEASE. -------------- EUR MOTIVATIONAL NOTE Jason M. Gracia President, Motivation123 http://www.Motivation123.com/cmd.php?ad=211377 The ability to control your motivation is the most important skill you will ever learn, and the ideas below will give you a great start to making this skill a part of your daily life. (Continued…) ---------------------------------------------- 11. Take Ownership ---------------------------------------------- Before positive changes can take place, you must take responsibility for your position in life. You are in control of your future and are the only one who can guarantee a better life. If you play the role of a victim, giving up control and ownership of your life, you will never enjoy the amazing opportunities that life offers to us all. ---------------------------------------------- 12. Write in a Journal ---------------------------------------------- A million thoughts may rush through your mind each day, but if you do nothing to capture them, they often disappear as quickly as they came. Take time to write in a journal each week. This will not only help you overcome obstacles you are facing in your life but also help you discover what you really want. ---------------------------------------------- 13. Who Do You Admire? ---------------------------------------------- Make a list of at least three people that you admire. With your list in hand describe what it is that you most respect about each individual. Often pinpointing what we admire in others offers insight into what we wish to become ourselves. ---------------------------------------------- 14. The Moment ---------------------------------------------- Remember a time when everything seemed to be going just right? When nothing could get you down? When you thought to yourself, 'This moment, right now, is what life is all about.' We all have moments in life when we feel we are at our best, but most people don't utilize them. Use the special moments in your life to bring to light goals and desires that are sure to fulfill your needs. Learning from and building on these times will help you create magic moments on a daily basis for the rest of your life. ---------------------------------------------- 15. A Friendly Brainstorming Session ---------------------------------------------- Gather a group of your closest friends, the ones who know you better than anyone else, and use their knowledge about you and your life to help you brainstorm goal and dream ideas. They will likely offer ideas you never considered yourself. ---------------------------------------------- When Should You Begin? ---------------------------------------------- It's decision time. You can continue to dream about the things you want or you can do something about them. You can let routine run the show or you can take control and make a change. You can put off your happiness until another day or you can begin doing the things you know you are capable of doing right now - the choice is yours. My Best, Jason M.
