The 5 Second Rule

The 5 Second Rule

This can be used in many aspects of our lives: to push ourselves to go to the gym, to control our emotions, or to rise every day with confidence and courage.

It is not good to wait to “feel like doing it” or for the right moment. There is a powerful connection between our brains and the instinct to act. In five seconds we make a decision and push ourselves. If not, we lose the momentum.

The Power of Courage

The Power of Courage

Courage is a push that unlocks opportunities that are behind what is scary, uncertain, and difficult. We cannot wait for the “right time” to improve our lives. That is an excuse. We avoid an action only because of fear of rejection, failure, or looking bad. We can be afraid and do it anyway.

Courage Changes Your Behavior

Courage Changes Your Behavior

When you want to increase productivity, the key word is focus. We have to manage distractions to focus on what’s truly important. We are most productive in the first two to three hours of the day, so it is good to plan to do the most important tasks in the morning.

Courage Changes Your Mind

Courage Changes Your Mind

Worrying doesn't solve problems. Think about it as a default setting of our minds when we don’t pay attention. You can stop worrying just by refocusing your mind: remind yourself to look at positive aspects of your situation and life in general. To beat fear, it is important to find an “anchor thought"; something positive that we can expect to experience after overcoming the fear.

Courage Changes Everything

Courage Changes Everything

Confidence in ourselves is built through acts of everyday courage. It is created by the small things that we do every day that build trust in ourselves. Too often we downplay the importance of small things that in reality are not small at all. Nothing is easy until we practice it.
