2. Teach your brain

2. Teach your brain

Your brain is what controls everything you do. Whether it is consciously or subconsciously, your brain has the steering wheel of your life. When you negatively judge yourself, try and talk yourself out of it.

Whatever it is that you put yourself down about, reverse it and repeat the positive thought to yourself. Over and over. Repeatedly tell yourself that you’re capable of accomplishing a challenging goal. Over and over. You deserve the world and the world deserves you at your full potential. Don’t strive for anything less than success and, of course, the best version of yourself.

But no habit starts out automatic; there’s a deliberate period, where you must consciously apply yourself to make a certain ...

Simplify your business writing

If you find yourself writing or reading long, complex sentences at work, edit and reedit them so that they express the gist in fewer words. 

Do this repeatedly and over time you'll automatically accustom your brain to shorter, clearer wordings.
