TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR LIFE

11 WAYS TO EXPAND YOUR LIFE NOW
1. DEFINE YOUR FUTURE
Describe the ‪#‎life‬ you'd like to live. The ‪#‎future‬ you see defines the person you'll need to be. Identify the traits and qualities you'd like to acquire. Think bigger than yourself. An acorn that only thinks as an acorn will never become a mighty oak. Stretch yourself. You are undoubtedly capable of more than you ever dreamed is possible for you.
2. BECOME THE PERSON WHO WOULD ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS
As you develop the ‪#‎skills‬, ‪#‎knowledge‬, ‪#‎relationships‬ and demeanor of the “future you,” your goals will be the natural by-product of your ‪#‎growth‬. Spend an extra hour each day in the study of your chosen field.
3. GIVE MORE THAN YOU MUST
Nothing advances until somebody does more than they are paid to do. Always deliver more ‪#‎value‬ than others expect. Don't require others to acknowledge your ‪#‎generosity‬. Give with "class."
4. MAKE TIME FOR WHAT YOU LOVE
If you don't live fully, you deny the world your potential contributions. Your "play" sometimes contributes as much as your "work." What you ‪#‎lovereveals‬ the value you bring to the world.
5. REFINE YOUR INNER CIRCLE
We define ourselves through our key relationships. Explore the mix and depth of those with whom you spend most of your ‪#‎time‬. Release those who limit you and connect with those who can help you live more fully.
6. RESOLVE YOUR UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Either deal with it or discard it. Say your ‪#‎apologies‬, face your ‪#‎fears‬, pay your ‪#‎debts‬, express your ‪#‎gratitude‬ and get on with living. Don't let yesterday drain value from ‪#‎today‬ and ‪#‎tomorrow‬. Break out of the limited world of your past and start to ‪#‎grow‬.
7. RETHINK EXISTING HABITS AND ROUTINES
Describe your typical day and then reconsider every aspect of it. Change or expand the places you go, people you see, things you do, and the time you devote to each. Try new things. Learn a new language, go someplace different, do some things you'd typically pass by. Find out what your possibilities really are.
8. LIGHTEN UP
Stop stressing over things that only matter to you emotionally. When life isn't fair to you, get over it quickly. Take your misfortunes as "course corrections" rather than "catastrophes." Let go so you can grow.
9. TIGHTEN UP
Sloppiness in life allows more variables to creep in and spoil your plans. Stay on ‪#‎target‬, increase your self-discipline, master the art of self-motivation. Sometimes details matter a lot.
10. PROFILE YOURSELF
Keep a journal of your ‪#‎goals‬, concerns, fears, and ‪#‎dreams‬. Review it at least once a year. Look for ‪#‎patterns‬ that reveal your core values, natural velocity, natural ‪#‎intelligence‬ and recurring situations. Realize how life ebbs and flows for you. Notice the natural cycles of life. Know yourself.
11. INVEST IN YOURSLEF
Set aside a portion of each year's ‪#‎income‬ to acquire new tools and teachers to increase your ‪#‎potential‬. Refine your ‪#‎systems‬, get expert coaching, attend special conferences, cultivate a study group, and appoint a board of advisors. You are your only true asset. Send part of today ahead to the person you'll be in the future.

WHY TRUST IS SO IMPORTANT IN BUSINESS AND CAREER

Organizations characterized by a high degree of trust are often the most successful. Trust is a big deal in workplaces. If I only had a dime for every time someone said, “I don’t trust so and so” in my coaching work! The word trust means many different things, depending on whom you ask. In my management training, I ask participants to write down 10 words that equate to what trust means to them. I typically get more than 100 different responses. Answers range from integrity, confidence, moral values and predictability to being able to count on someone. When it comes to high-performing teams, I equate trust to someone’s willingness to be open, exposed and “vulnerable.” No matter the definition, one thing everyone agrees on — trust must be earned and it’s much harder to earn than it is to lose. Developing and maintaining trust is critical to success in your career, workplace teams, leadership and business. Trust is the foundation for all things good in workplaces. I ...

KEEP IT SIMPLE SWEATHERT

Avoid micro-management at all costs "I recently flipped through the declassified 'Simple Sabotage Field Manual', published in 1944 by the US Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor to the CIA. It lists numerous strategies that saboteurs in business environments can use to derail progress. Surprisingly, many of those tactics are being used in offices around the world today! "For instance, the manual instructs saboteurs who have infiltrated organisations to "insist on doing everything through channels. Never permit short-cuts to be taken in order to expedite decisions". "It also advocates for being extra cautious and advises that every decision be referred to committees. Managers are advised to "Multiply the procedures and clearances involved in issuing instructions... See that three people have to approve everything where one would do." These instructions might sound outdated, but they’re timeless. 2. Make your ideas fit on the back ...

Why We Need to Watch Leslee Udwin's Documentary India's Daughter

An illogical, misguided outrage has gripped India. Indignant people are railing against a rapist given primetime TV slots, so the country can know his point of view. How is it -- angry people are demanding -- that channels be so TRP hungry, they're willing to allow this disturbed man's innermost thoughts be broadcast on TV? What do they hope to get from this, other than insult the memory of the one who has been immortalised (against her wishes) as India's Braveheart? #nirbhayainsulted they hashtagged, when we gave her rapist so much publicity. So, you are outraged that a documentary on rapists has been made, and is being broadcast. You, and your sensibilities, count themselves among luminaries in the feminist movement, the government, other activists and lawyers. You think the FIR filed by the police saying this film "contains offensive content which should not be broadcast in the interest of maintaining public order," is absolutely correct, and this kind of free...
