How To Change Your Life In Just 30 Minutes A Day

By Winston A. Richardson


It seems that every year we all decide to make changes to our lives we consider critical to our success. If you're like me, and you feel you've failed to make all of the changes in your life you want to make, then maybe it's time to change the way you think.Instead of trying to change the world around you, you need to start with the inside and work your way out. By changing from the inside to the outside, you'll create lasting change.Whatever your life is like today, it didn't get that way overnight, and it won't change overnight. All you have to do is make a commitment to do something today that will change your life today. Then, each day, recommit. Don't try to do it all at once. In fact, by taking small steps, eventually you'll reach your goal. Although it's a cliche, it really is true that "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."
[How Do You Change Your Life]


Change won't happen overnight, but it will happen for you if you are willing to take three simple steps. Regardless of your faith, or what you believe, this plan will work for you.You only need to commit to 30 minutes each day to see lasting success. Try this plan every day for 21 days. Almost any habit can be developed, or broken, in only 21 days. If you really want to get the most from it, then commit to an hour a day. Although this may seem hard at first, once you start to reap the results, you won't want to do anything else. It will become a part of your daily routine.

Besides noticing what you see around you, also follow your whims, and go with your gut instinct. For example, once when I was traveling in Greece with my boyfriend and we had a big fight. I left, and went wandering down the streets to be alone. A gut instinct told me to go into a little jewellery shop, and I did. I ended up meeting the nicest Greek family ever, who invited me to lunch and gave me a beautiful necklace to remember them by. The afternoon turned into a very positive experience because I followed a gut instinct instead of being by myself and feeling sad. It was not good luck that my day turned around. It was the fact that I created the day by following my instincts.

New Career Opportunity.The final way your life can be changed with the opportunities of wealth creation can be seen with a new career possibility. Most careers have expiration dates where you go as high as you can in the company, hit a glass ceiling or gain no real joy from your chosen field. If this is the case, a successful online career may be available with wealth generation. With the more time you place in your efforts you may be able to generate an income to match or surpass your existing income.This will place you on a new career track with a job that demands little time, allows you to create your own schedule, and provides you with the comfort of working from home.OK, so I going to start by saying there are many people online today that have either been involved or are becoming involved with some form of marketing opportunity. With the economic climate today many people are turning to new ways of making a living, and internet marketing is certainly a great way to get started.

But! before we get into this, there is always something that is stopping you from succeeding, and I call it the "the positive mind" Why, because many people fail to realise that the way you think has a deeper impact on the way your external world operates. What I mean by this is that if you don't change your thinking, you will never change your life. "Why" well, If you have a cheerful positive out look to your life, people see this and see that you are a leader and a great example of someone to follow and be empowered by - especially will online marketing. Nobody wants to be surrounded by negativity or negative people, if you are starting your very own online company then this is something I strongly recommend you think about before you get started, With life, people like to be liked and people like to talk about themselves, so if you have a positive outlook to life and a positive attitude, you will attract a lot of business to your life and financial success in the business world.

Let me give you a few of my top tips on what you can do to stay positive in your life: Self Talk - Everything we do has an effect on the way we think about ourselves. So tell yourself that "I feel terrific today" I can do it" I am great at what I do" I like myself" These are just a few examples of what you can say to yourself for positive mental talk. Use these examples and you will feel terrific and most certainly have a more positive attitude without you realising.

Change starts in the mind. Then you have to take action. Use this simple plan to help you reach your dreams and get the life you deserve.Simple but powerful mindfulness exercises bring us a wide range of benefits. You don't have to sit in lotus position or become a Buddhist. Interest in mindfulness coming out of scientific research is making it mainstream.If I were to tell you that you can learn to release yourself from stress, improve your well being, increase your emotional intelligence, make better decisions and be happier and more successful just by sitting on your butt and watching your breath for a few minutes each day, would you be persuaded? Probably not. If you think about it, that's strange because you probably do sit on your butt for much of the day and you never stop breathing. So what's the problem? First of all we have to have some kind of understanding why it works and second, if you try it, maybe you'll find why it's not such and easy thing to do. Just sit on a chair, upright, and count each breath. How many breaths can you count before you get distracted and forget to count? Do you forget how many breaths you've counted? Just try it.So, like learning to do a lot of things it's difficult at first. Our minds just want to get out there and do stuff. So how does training our attention to follow the breath do so much good?

There's increasing evidence that training attention with the right kind of attitude has many benefits. Much of the scientific work has been done on depression. People who attend a course for eight weeks, going to a weekly two hour class and doing around half an hour each day over the duration of the course, works at least as well as taking antidepressants. The effects are long lasting and can be seen in changes in the brain and continuing the habit has even greater benefits.What happens when you stand in the queue waiting to be served? What happens when you're waiting for a bus? Well, for most of us, we get bored or frustrated and our mind goes for a walk. We start daydreaming, planning or worrying. We're distracted. The thing is, what's going on in our minds has an impact on our moods and then our mood effects our thinking. We create patterns of mood and habits of thinking which feed on each other. So often this causes us completely unnecessary stress.

Focus on the Positive Not the Negative. Turn negative situations into positive ones. Everything happens for a purpose and a reason. Instead of complaining, and feeling wounded after a negative situation, stop and think about how you can change it into a positive one. Remember, you attract what you dwell on; positive attracts positive, and negativity attracts negativity. If your thoughts are negative and victimizing, you will attract exactly that into your life. What are your thoughts attracting?

I followed those 3 steps. What I began to see that I totally owned when I storyboarded my strengths was my creative talent as well as my strength as a speaker per se after 30 years of teaching. I looked at that relationship in a bit of a new way and realized I could redirect both of those talents. I then proceeded to quote unquote reinvent myself and became a creative consultant to individuals, and eventually groups. Are we clear? I did reinvent myself, and not. I already owned those talents.How to change your life can be seen in different light, you just have to put the time in and discover it, and then get CREATIVE with those discoveries. Realize those inherent gifts you already own and make them work for you in alternative life settings... or, a new career. I can't begin to tell you how many of those we've labeled geniuses have used that creative storyboard scenario to accomplish their goals. Reinvent... and not.Life and career change cannot possibly be covered in only one article... to that end Jake just finished a follow-up article on how to change your life.Jake Kot the Author, Educator, Counselor, Speaker and co-founder of neoCreativity.com, is known as the "Creative's" creative consultant.
