As we are almost at the end of the first half of the year, 2016 is a wonderful year with a lot of lessons learned through reading good books, Good websites, Blogs, watching YouTube channels, Meeting new people and New opportunities.
These are the lessons I've learned:
1. Don't try to Change People
Accept people as they are, accept their strength and their weaknesses. Encourage them when they need encouragement, appreciate what they do, and tell them that you do appreciate them, it helps to build their confidence.
If you try so hard changing people they might develop resentment, moreover they will avoid you because you're hurting their feelings.
2. Early Awakening
Rise with the sun and start the day well. We need a quality sleep to be able to wake up early. Ten minutes before and after you wake up are profoundly influential on your subconscious mind. You can end and start your day with prayers.
3. Be Present
Whatever you are doing be there, put your mind to what you are doing. Either whether you are listening to a person who is talking to you give it all don't listen to reply, listen to listen, show that you are listening and present. If you do it on your best or on your worst people will notice.
4. Manage Your Finance
Control your finance, live within your financial limit, have a simple budget, Save your money for investment.
I have learned that the quickest way to get rich quick is not to get rich quick. Disciplined savings will outpace any investment scheme.
5. Personal Reflection
Take time to get to know yourself. Think enough to thrive, take time to think. Get into the regular habit of personal introspection. Reflect on your day, what you've done and all that you've thought, do an assignment, whether your activities and thought were positive in nature. If they were positive continue giving your precious energy to them as they would pay a huge dividend in the long run.
Figure out what's wrong and what is right in your days and in your life. There's nothing wrong with making mistakes. Mistakes are part of life and essential for growth. Just learn from them and be aware of them.
6. The Power of Spoken Words
Have a collection of words strung together to create a positive mind. Recite in the morning, noon and night . This practice is immensely effective in keeping you focused, strong and happy.
The word you say to yourself affect your self-image and your self-image determines what action you take.
7. Knowledge is Potential Power
Read regularly to have abundant knowledge, do not read just anything, you must be selective about what you put in your mind. It must be something that will improve both you and the quality of your life. "A book is a best friend of the wise"
Every answer to every problem you have ever faced is in books. The answer and solutions are all recorded on the pages of books.
Read the right books, learn how those who have preceded you have handled the challenges you are currently facing.
8. Find Passion in what You are Doing.
Passion is how you do what you are doing. All of your energy, enthusiasm, innovation and creativeness in your work will determine the end result. If you do it half-heart You"ll achieve half result. Find a way to enjoy and have fun on whatever you are doing to make a living. Add value and you will celebrate the glory of work. Work is the man's best friend.
I am Looking forward to enjoying the second half of the year. Am excited for next moth as it's my birthday month, I hope I will learn a lot and grow spiritually, financially, mentally and academical.
