Stop right this minute. Get out a sheet of paper and a mongol number 2. What you’re gonna do is gonna give you a better life. Trust me. It’s empowerment to the max.

Ready?

I want you to write down 20 words that best describe you. Don’t stop until you finish writing. Take as long as you need, but don’t let anything distract you from this. (more…)

Do you know what separates those who make things happen and those who have things happen to them? Or why some people make waves and others fall as victims on the roadside? The difference lies in one’s ability to decide with conviction.

How do you feel when presented with options? Do you feel good? Wishy washy? Pathetic? Indifferent?

Your decision making process determines how much you influence the world. (more…)

If your breathing space is cluttered with all sorts of mess, you feel psychologically crowded- it gets hard to think and relax. Bring about some peace by simplifying the way you live and you instantly increase your mental focus while decreasing stress.

Yogis like to teach that to attract prosperity, we myst first create room to allow the new abundance. It’s this principle that drives the success of runaway bestseller The Secret. Realize now that by grasping at redundant and useless baggage that surround us, we spiritually tie ourselves to old limiting beliefs and past limitations. My mom long hammered this fact into me; it’s done wonders for my personal growth. (more…)

Powerful people command invincible self-belief and little can strip them of their self-worth. They bounce back again and again. Would you like to feel like this? You wield all that it takes to seize what you want and to coast the triumphs and tribulations that life throws at you. Few enjoy a smooth ride- but imagine how you will feel  if you shortchange yourself by refusing to give opportunities a try?

Want to believe in yourself? (more…)

The quickest way to enhance your circumstances is to change yourself and you have been born with the tools to achieve this.  Realize that when life throws you a curve ball, you face three options: 1) To duck and look for a scapegoat, 2) To be the scapegoat, 3) To react powerfully.

Seeking for and becoming the scapegoat tend to be options of the martyr or victim. While it seems foolish, there are payoffs to this avenue:  to validate low self-esteem, to evade responsibility, to offload blame on others, to avoid rocking the boat, to minimize risk. (more…)

My cousin has a desk with stuff that literally blocks his view. It’s full of procrastinated paperwork. He says “I’ll do it tommorow” each time we meet. Then a few days ago he had a relapse from anxiety and stress from the backlog. Poor fella. He doesn’t know the secret to getting things done asap. (more…)

Yep.  Google sent me $1707 for the month of December 2007.  It’s for the Adsense Program in the name of one of my affiliated companies… and get this: the cheque’s for a four month old site!

 Here’s proof:

(Had to block out the specific details or Google’s gonna lock my account)

Okay, let’s get one thing straight: it’s no biggie for master bloggers like Armand Morin, Shoemoney.com, Problogger, Connectedinternet.co.uk. These fellas rake it in to the tune of ten grand a month. So what makes my check special?

It’s literally because I used Magic to get it.  Want to know the secret? (more…)

Jesus Christ was the ultimate self-help guru. He may not have worn the flashiest robe nor ridden a high horsepower donkey, but he did amazing things. Who else in man’s history healed the blind, turned water into wine, and gave us the Golden Rule which revolutionized the way we treat each other.  Remember that sublime piece of wisdom, so utterly beautiful in it’s simplicity? The Golden Rule exhorted:

Do Unto Others As You Would Have Others Do Unto You.

It works well… most of the time. (more…)

Know what holds most people from true success? It’s coz they live a life of Somedays….

Do these musings sound familiar?

“Someday, I’ll be rich…”
“Someday, I’ll find the right one…”
“Someday, I’ll start that business…”

Geez! If you think like that, Someday will never happen. You’ll push ‘it’ so far into the future that you’ll be dead before anything happens.

There’s just one way out. Next time you say “Someday”, replace it with “TODAY. ”

Then magic will really begin.

I and my friends stress out very frequently. At a 10 hour workday, it’s tough to keep on going with that fresh outlook all month. Hence I make it mandatory to cut the routine once a quarter with a spot of travelling. And what better place than Europe!

There’s nothing like dropping the cares and worries and checking into exotic locations such as hotels at amsterdam or cozy dives at greece! You see, travelling to Europe had always been a fancy of mine- being based in bustling tropical asia, I crave the solitude of scenic temples and hotels in Greece. I can stand at the Pathernon all day, snap pictures, sip coffee and just breathe. And with every breath, I revitalize like a bird in flight.

Yesiree… if the travel bug’s trying to bite you- let it. It may be the best remedy to a life which moves so fast… that you no longer have any wonder left for living.
