Feeling gratitude • Quotes

Being constantly busy robs us from doing anything that has any real value.Some of the most important discoveries and inventions weren't made while the great minds were busy, but when they were still.

Busyness

Kickstarting our creative process requires solitude, space, time and a distraction-free environment. Our brain then gets accustomed to constant stimulation, and we become addicted to busyness.

Addicted to Busyness

Being busy all the time dials down your creativity. Being distracted doing the scheduled work in your calendar doesn't give your brain time to do any creative thinking and in turn any real, original work.Real productive work requires an unobstructed window of time during the day.

Busyness and Creativity

We consume up to five times more information than we used to a generation before. This constant information overload drains us of our creativity and even willpower.An avalanche of information keeps our brain mired and trapped in noise.

Information Overload

How to disconnect in the age of distraction and constant information:<ol><li>A morning walk without your phone with you.</li><li>Getting out of your comfort zone, doing something you normally wouldn't do.</li><li>More fun and games.</li><li>Do diverse types of activity.</li></ol>

The Four Ways To Disconnect

Boredom is considered an undesirable state of mind, but it is essential for a healthy, creative mind.Our minds otherwise would become a machine transmitting and receiving information all day.

Boredom is Good

The other day a friend mentioned that he's looking forward to autonomous cars, as it will help lower the accident and fatality rates caused by distracted driving. True, was my initial reply, with a caveat: what we gain on the roads we lose in general attention.

Affirmations 

The book “Life of Pi,” by Yann Martel is an excellent representation of adaptability. It shows how your circumstances force you to evaluate or reinvent perspectives in life and the choices you’ve made. Sometimes these evaluations or reinventions are done by choice. Other times they’re forced upon you – asking you to become adaptable.  So are you ready to push yourself out of your comfort zones and master "the Power of Adaptability?" Continue reading the next stash for the Action Plans.

An inspiration from "Life of Pi"

It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.

The fixed mindset is when you believe you’re either good/capable or not good/capable of something. That talent alone creates success, regardless of effort.The growth mindset is when you believe that anyone can be good at anything and that your skills and abilities are because of hard work, practice, and action.Remember we all are journeying forth in this amazing path of growth! To strive to become the best version of ourselves....Everyday we are evolving...Everyday we are being better and more beautiful than yesterday!﻿

Develop a "growth mindset"

The 4 levels of AdaptabilityThe Comfort Zone (Ah...The soft cozy bed of our room...Mum's yummy recipes made with love for you!)The Learning Zone (Where our ambitions and dreams hang out and party!)The Panic Zone (Frustration...Panic....Ups and Downs kicks in...aka The Rollercoaster Journey!)The Magic Zone (Or The Mystical Unknown...Where you unlock your highest potential!)<a href="http://www.garygagliardi.com/">Gary Gagliardi </a> tells us that to get to the Magic Zone we have to become more adaptable and that act requires great courage, tenacity, and experimentation.

ADAPTABILITY CAN BE FOUND OUTSIDE OF OUR COMFORT ZONE

<ul><li>It’s your willingness to learn, make mistakes, and learn some more.</li><li>It’s your ability to render adequate feedback and make adjustments or changes in your behaviors that produce positive and productive results.</li></ul>ACTION PLAN: Ponder about any situation or experience which you've been through and the necessary adjustments you've made to bring positive development in you.Example:Experience: I have a sedentary lifestyleChanges I have made: Adopting a healthier lifestyle like regular exercise (morning sessions of athletic run for an hour) and mindfulness about eating healthy.

WHAT IS ADAPTABILITY?

<ol><li>Always try to learn something new. Especially something unfamiliar or confusing to you.</li><li>Focus on the process of achieving goals and not the outcome like preparing healthy meals every day and working out consistently and not losing 20 pounds in 2 months.</li><li>Believe that your passion and purpose come from handwork. Like Mark Cuban says, “Don’t follow you passion, follow your effort.” </li><li>Create a list of things you need to improve or get better at.</li><li>Accept and learn from constructive criticism.</li><li>Get inspired by the achievements of others and their stories of growth.</li></ol>

THE POWER OF ADAPTABILITY: HOW TO ADAPT TO ANYTHING LIFE THROWS AT YOU. - Justin Thomas Miller

You would never notice the good things if you didn’t also experience the bad things. Failure and feeling lost are in the “bad things” category.These experiences shape who you are. They lead you to discover parts of yourself you would have otherwise never known about. They are important things to go through. So, embrace them!

2 .  Failure and loss are important for your growth

When you feel like you’re sitting at the bottom of your life pit, it’s time to grab a rope and climb out. This is what feeling lost is like.If you feel that your life is spinning out of control or that you’re not heading in the right direction, you have nothing to lose by changing your path. And you just might find the path to your success!

4 .  You have nothing to lose and everything to gain

When you feel lost and alone, it’s a wonderful time to try new things.This time when you’re spinning and trying to find your center is the perfect time to have fun and see if you find anything that sparks new joy in your life.

3 .  You have time to explore options you may have ignored

The lessons you learn along the way will become a part of you. They’ll guide you to new opportunities. They’ll inspire you to get involved with new people or organizations. They will lead you to success!Break free of your comfort zone, try new things, meet new people, and welcome the listlessness. These are the moments when you can find your joy and discover the path to success.

7 .  You can embrace the freedom

If you’re going along in life and things seem to be going okay. When you feel lost, none of those things hold you back anymore.You can really stop and assess every aspect of your life and rebuild it from the ground up. You have to take ownership for who you are and how you got there. But the great news is that you can also take ownership of where you go from here forward.

1 .  Feeling lost makes you stop and assess the situation

When you feel lost, use your free time to help others. When you volunteer, you don’t just improve the lives of others, but you also make a lasting change in your own life.You learn the value of your time and your energy. Volunteering is also a great way to network and meet people who could lead you down a new path. If you have a particular interest that you volunteer for, it might lead to a career with that organization.

6 .  You can volunteer your time and energy

This is a great time in your life to get to know yourself. You can do this through meditation, prayer, journaling, hiking, counseling, or just spending some time with yourself. This time you spend getting to know yourself might lead you to discover new goals or things you’d like to pursue.

5 .  You can get to know yourself and what you really want

I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Are you feeling lost? Frazzled? Like you have no idea where your life is going or what you want to do with your life? Don't despair.

7 Reasons Why Feeling Lost Can Lead You To Life Success

We cannot be stuck in the past, present or future time perspectives all the time, and have to be aware of how our mind works. To strike a balance, we have to be:<ol><li>1 percent focused on the past, like spending 10 minutes writing a journal.</li><li>9 percent focused on the future, making sure to be fit and eat nutritious food.</li><li>90 percent present-focused, ensuring that we read, eat, travel, cook, write, sleep and exercise.</li></ol>

The 1/9/90 Principle Of Time Perspective

We don’t really value time as much as we value money, even though money one lost can be earned again, but lost time can never come back.
Many of us waste a lot of time on social media and other platforms consuming content of varying quality. If we really valued time, we would be aware of the time wasted on overthinking or being stuck in the past, or simply being miserable.

The Value Of Time

<ul><li>Balancing how we use our time needs flexibility. If the focus is single-mindedly on a particular time perspective, one cannot lead a happy, well-lived life.</li><li>Being in the future when one has to be in the present creates misery and conflict.</li><li>We can live every moment to the maximum by dialling the right time perspective(past, present or future).</li><li>The wealthiest people in the world who are running out of time know its value, and many of us waste(or kill) time as if it is unlimited.</li></ul>

The Time Paradox

The Human mind falls in the following states when thinking about time:<ol><li>Past: Remembering the good old days or wishing things happened differently in the life gone by.</li><li>Present: Wanting enjoyment in the present, or always being on the lookout for instant gratification.</li><li>Future: Getting good grades, not drinking or smoking, eating healthy food, saving and investing.</li></ol>

The Three Time Perspectives

<ul><li>Embrace The Past.</li><li>Think About The Future.</li><li>Remember: The Time To Live Is Right Now.</li><li>Yesterday Is Gone.</li><li>Tomorrow Isn’t Here Yet.</li><li>Make Today Count.</li></ul>

The Time Formula

Awareness of time perspectives helps you to live better because you will make better use of your time when you’re more aware.
