Success And Happiness Depend On Your Mindset

Do you sometimes feel stuck, blocked, desperate, grounded ? Does life feel like everything being too much for you, at home, at work, between home and work ?

First of all let me tell you that this is normal. Everybody has this moments. Are you willing to do something or at least to read about it ?

Today I listened to a very good tutorial by Barbara Silva, Renegade University Coach which is called "When You Hit A Roadblock" and I will try to give you a summary. What I learned was to evaluate a doubt about something being really worth to be continued or not. She explained it in words but I saw the picture you can see in the upper right corner of this article.

You are ought to have a baseline and, as a habit, you should try to stay above it. Your life is OK, and this will help you evaluate your doubts and make your decision, when you stay the same period of time above your baseline as you stay below your baseline. Keep it balanced. Evaluate.

The next thing is to get a success mindset if you do not have it yet. Make a To-Do-List and focus on the points which you think will give you the best return.

If you feel overwhelmed - there is no need to be perfect. Just start and improve step by step. If something goes wrong, try again.

If you suffer from a lack of time - adjust to the time you have. Make a good action plan for the available hours. More is impossible.

If you suffer from a lack of money - annoying but most common. Be realistic about your budget. Do not spend more than you have. Pay your bills in time and focus on the things you want to buy some day in order to achieve this goal.

If you suffer from a lack of support - think who you are asking support from. Divide your support topics into groups and dedicate some time to each of them. Offer your help as well. Communication provides support.

If you suffer from a lack of confidence - write down your strengths and define yourself through them. Is this the way you want to be ? Try to be as you want to be.

If you fear failure - there is no failure in life, only steps to success. This one is magic.

If you fear success - there might be something planted in your mind long ago. Find out why you fear success. (too much responsibility, change of lifestyle, too much work, etc.). Make a mindset change.

Life makes its own twist and turns, it has ups and downs, things happen by hazard but each mature person looking for good happiness should try to take control of their lives.

A problem ? Try to solve it. Look for a way around it. This can be step by step, nobody is perfect. But try to reach your aim. Move yourself ahead of the problem. Turn the negative into positive. This is powerful.

At the end of her tutorial Barbara Silva animates us to choose one of our problematic topics, write it down and try to solve it, to look for the way around, to move ahead of it within the next five days.

I invite you to do so as well and I wish you full success.

Thank you, Barbara Silva.
