1 IDEA FROM ME πŸ’‘


Sometimes we feel stuck. We are in positions where we feel like we can't make any improvements to our situation, and we just have to let time do its thing.


What do you do in such situations?


I remember feeling like this in 2014 and I posed this question to a personal development trainer at work... "What do you do when you feel stuck in life?"


They couldn't answer the question.


Upon waiting for a response I started to formulate my own answer and came up with the conclusion that you need to be "Hopeful."


Without a sense of hope or belief that things will change, nothing will change.


Now there are things you can do daily to ensure the universe works around your wishes, this may be applying for jobs, following a strict process or talking about your situation...


...But admittedly it may feel like things are not changing.


However, these acts begin to create a domino effect that you may not be consciously aware of at the beginning.


If you are in this situation I am deeply sympathetic. Remember time is a great teacher and things will always change especially with intentional applied effort.


To reiterate, make sure you keep on moving no matter what, but also find constant ways to express yourself to your trusted ones.


At some point something will budge, as time tells us, either based on decisions we make or a change in our environments, but never give up hope!

1 BOOK RECOMMENDATION FROM ME πŸ“š


Think and Grow Rich: The Original Classic β€” Napoleon Hill

I'm sure you have heard about this book in you have circles and if you haven't this is the time to hear about it!


Napoleon Hill is considered a huge influence on many people's lives due to the research and writings he did originally for Andrew Carnegie, the Scottish Tycoon who made his great wealth in the early 1900s.


Napoleon Hill set out, at a young age, to understand what makes people successful, and a lot of his learnings are captured in this book.


Personally, I owe this book a lot in terms of adopting a solid mindset towards a primary aim in life and utilizing Masterminds.


If you want to prime your mind for the following year, I would highly recommend reading this book.
