Form a New Habit:
Make it a habit to tell people thank you. To express your appreciation, sincerely and without the expectation of anything in return. Truly appreciate those around you, and you’ll soon find many others around you. Truly appreciate life, and you’ll find that you have more of it. -Ralph Marston Â
Â
Do Something New:Â Â
I never felt I knew it all. I always felt there’s something new to learn, something new to do. -Don ShulaÂ
Â
Write a Book:Â
Every time I write a new book, I want to push myself to try something different. -Lauren MyracleÂ
Â
Research:Â
Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought. -Albert Szent-GyorgyiÂ
Â
Be Accountable:Â
No one is the same, and we all have different life experiences. It’s not my place to judge them or for them to judge me. We should all be accountable for our own lives. -Joanna KrupaÂ
Â
Create:Â
Hard times don’t create heroes. It is during the hard times when the ‘hero’ within us is revealed. -Bob RileyÂ
Â
Rebrand:
You cry and you scream and you stomp your feet and you shout. You say, ‘You know what? I’m giving up, I don’t care.’ And then you go to bed and you wake up and it’s a brand new day, and you pick yourself back up again. -Nicole ScherzingerÂ
Â
Update:
Critical thinking is not something you do once with an issue and then drop it. It requires that we update our knowledge as new information comes in. Time spent evaluating claims is not just time well spent. It should be considered part of an implicit bargain we’ve all made. -Daniel Levitin
Â
Ask for Help:
From what I’ve seen, it isn’t so much the act of asking that paralyzes us–it’s what lies beneath: the fear of being vulnerable, the fear of rejection, the fear of looking needy or weak. The fear of being seen as a burdensome member of the community instead of a productive one…It points, fundamentally, to our separation from one another. -Amanda Palmer
Â
Device Strategies:
What we need to do is always lean into the future; when the world changes around you and when it changes against you – what used to be a tail wind is now a head wind – you have to lean into that and figure out what to do because complaining isn’t a strategy. -Jeff BezosÂ
Â
Network:
Love, friendship, networking – these are all critical connections and the foundation of a healthy, happy life. -Whitney Wolfe HerdÂ
Â
Manage Time:
You’ve got to know what you want. This is central to acting on your intentions. When you know what you want, you realize that all there is left then is time management. You’ll manage your time to achieve your goals because you clearly know what you’re trying to achieve in your life. -Patch Adams
Learn:
Obstacles, of course, are developmentally necessary: they teach kids strategy, patience, critical thinking, resilience and resourcefulness. -Naomi Wolf
