“Good habits, once established are just as hard to break as are bad habits”
Robert Puller

Habits have a very important role in your life. The character of a person is determined by his habits. You can start seeing the benefits of most-positive thinking in your life when you apply positive thinking consistently. You can and must make positive thinking one of your good habits and enjoy a better quality life.

1.Set goals. Did you know that the most successful people all share the common positive habit of goal setting? A study was done to determine the importance of goal setting. College students who had gone on to achieve great success in business were asked to list their habits. The students who had made a habit of setting goals were in the top 3% of earnings in the population! It is almost impossible to overestimate the value of goal-setting as a positive habit. Goal setting is simple, yet 97% of the population never do it. By making goal setting a positive habit, you can start placing yourself in the top 3% of the population of successful people.

2. Stop worrying. Worry occurs in your imagination, not in reality. Worry is a function of fear, and fear is your subconscious’s way of telling you that it is uncomfortable with something and your subconscious will make you miserable until the problem goes away… but the problem is that worrying doesn’t solve anything. The quickest way (in fact the only way) to resolve something that bothers you is to act in the present, in reality, outside the context of your fear. Inside its context… you could wrestle with it forever, and it will only make you unhappy and powerless. Read more

We all desire happiness. What does “happiness” mean?
Happiness itself can be defined in many different ways, it may have all kinds of components, it may be a life’s work, or even no work at all, but we are, most of us, in pursuit of this elusive goal.

We experience happiness on four different levels. Each of us makes choices day by day about happiness. The choice will be to make either happiness level 1, 2, 3, or 4 our identity.

Happiness Level 1 (laetus) :

Happiness in a thing. This kind of happiness is based on something external to the self, is short-lived and, on reflection, we do not consider that it is all there is to human happiness. The pleasure they give is immediate and direct such as eating an ice cream cone, buying a brand new car, going on vacation. Their pleasure is short lived and intermittent. They must be replaced by yet another ice cream cone, or new car, or vacation. Until such replacements take place our happiness is on hold.

Happiness Level 2 (felix):

The second level of happiness involves the ego. (Ego is Latin for I) This kind of happiness results from competition with another person. The self is seen in terms of how we measure up to others. It has been called “the comparison game.” Such happiness is rather unstable and, if one fails, can lead to unhappiness and sense of worthlessness. Exclusive pursuit tends to oppress others. Most people would not imagine a world as satisfactory if it was composed of only happiness #2 type people.                                                                                                       Read more

Definitions
Goals — the general statements that describe the desired solution to a problem or issue.

Ask some truly successful people what accounts for their achievements and you’ll often hear this answer: goals. Indeed, clear goals are the fulcrum on which all prioritizing turns. To set goals is worth a good block of your time. Without goals your time will be aimless.

However, what kinds of goals? What must goals be?

1. Specific - A specific goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal. To set a specific goal you must answer the six “W” questions:

*Who: Who is involved?

*What: What do I want to accomplish?

*Where: Identify a location.

*When: Establish a time frame.

*Which: Identify requirements and constraints.

*Why: Specific reasons, purpose or benefits of accomplishing the goal.

2. Attainable. Successful people set goals that are ambitious yet realistic. Cycles of success mark achievers’ lives.
When such people fail, it isn’t from a lack of planning or effort. Dreamers, on the other hand, set unreachable goals. They ride a rollercoaster of ups and downs, sometimes never making it to the top of the first hill.

3. Measurable. Imagine a football game with no yard lines, end zones, goal posts, scoreboard, clock, or even clear-cut teams—just a bunch of players whose goal is to pass a
football, run around, and collide. It might be fun to watch for a while, but not for long. The chaos would soon drive the fans out of the stadium. Shortly thereafter, the players,unmotivated and confused, would wander off the field.
To work without clear-cut, measurable goals is, in reality, not much more productive or engaging than our imaginary football game. To motivate yourself and others— to know if you have won—you absolutely need goals that can be measured.                                                    Read more

Please become itself charismatic? Please be admired to you, respected, be listened, appreciated, like are people who have charisma? Follow the guide, and discover the 4 keys of the charisma.

The charisma, it is one of these concepts that it is difficult to define with words, but which one undoubtedly recognition when it is seen. Here the definition of the charisma by the dictionary:

Charisma, (Greek): A special divine gift which endows the recipient with a supernatural ability to know and proclaim the will of God. In short, a pipeline from God which mere mortals may not challenge.

Of this definition, I will retain mainly three things:
Aura: it is this small more, one indefinable but perceptible mixture which makes that the person is charismatic.
Able to cause adhesion: Charismatic people are those which one seeks the company, and which one has desire for following.
People: The charisma is a social competence by definition. You cannot be charismatic if you live on a deserted island.

To help you in your research, here 4 principal qualities, in my opinion, that it will be necessary for you to develop:

1. Develop your interior force

All charismatic people that I met showed this characteristic: a strong personality. That does not mean that it were choleric, obstinate, after everyone. That means that their limits were well defined, that they knew what they wanted and where they went, and which one could always with what expect with them.

Ego Development project is starting now. This is a first post.

A few words about EGO:

The ego has been defined in many ways. In the following definitions, we are examining the ego as our identity in the human realm.

• It is who we believe ourselves to be. It is our reference point, and our home in the world.
• The ego is individuality. As our identity, it sets us apart from other people’s identities. To provide our sense of being separate from other people and from the world in general, the ego creates ego boundaries. In that separateness, our ego distinguishes itself as being unique.
• The ego is a center of consciousness. It gives us a perspective from which we perceive the world.
• The ego is an executive. It makes decisions. It implements our will.
• The ego is an organizer. It makes a distinction between the inner world and the outer world, and it notes our perceptions from both. By conceptualizing, labeling, and organizing those perceptions, it tries to make sense of them. It files them in various contexts, where we can make considerations regarding their value, potential threat or benefit.
• The ego is an interface. Just as our physical body is an interface with the physical world, the ego is a non physical interface primarily with the human world of society and individuals. The interface has both an inflow and an outflow:

Outflow The ego is a transformer and interpreter, transmitting ideas from our self into the world in a form that is understandable and appropriate.
Inflow The ego translates incoming information from the human world such that our daily experiences are comprehensible and meaningful and educational.

• The ego is a mediator. It mediates in our inner world. It strives to resolve conflicts among the other parts of the psyche, including the subconscious mind, subpersonalities, and so on. Read more
