The messages of handwritten letters impact deeper and are remembered longer than electronic messages.Handwritten messages are so powerful that people often keep these notes for a long time. Sometimes a lifetime.

46. Write and place a short, thoughtful note for someone once per day

People are instinctively cooperative and generous.When you want to say “I love you,” to a loved one, just do it. Don’t think about it.Paralysis by analysis is dumb. And Malcolm Gladwell explains in Blink that snap-decisions are often far better than well-thought out ones.

45. Be spontaneously generous with a stranger at least once per month

Very few things in life are just randomly given to you as an adult. In most cases, you need to earn it and/or ask for it.The entire crowdfunding industry is based on making asks.Start making bold and audacious asks. What’s the worst that could happen? They say “No”?What’s the best that could happen?When you don’t ask, you lose by default. And you’ll never know the opportunities you missed out on.Put yourself out there. You’ll be blown away by what happens.

44. Make one audacious request per week (what do you have to lose?)

71 percent of bed makers consider themselves happySomething so simple. Yet, when you make your bed first thing in the morning, you knock-off your first accomplishment of the day. This puts you in a mindset of “winning.”

42. Have no more than 3 items on your to-do list each day

39. Create an automated income source that takes care of the fundamentals

Warren Buffett doesn’t invest in technology because he doesn’t understand it. Instead, he invests in banking and insurance. He’s not a tech guy. He invests in what he understands.

38. Invest only in industries you are informed about

<ul><li>In a free-market economy, anyone can make as much money as they want.</li><li>Your background, highest level of education, or IQ is irrelevant when it comes to earning money.</li><li>The bigger the problem you solve, the more money you make.</li><li>Expect to make lots of money. Think BIG.</li><li>What you focus on expands. If you believe in scarcity, you’ll have little.</li><li>When you create incredible value for others, you have the right to make as much money as you want.</li><li>You’re not going to be discovered, saved, or made rich by someone else. If you want to be successful, you have to build it yourself.</li></ul>

37. “Change the way you feel, think, and act about money” — Steve Down

Every decision has opportunity cost. When you choose one thing, you simultaneously don’t choose several others.We must define success, wealth, and happiness in our own terms because if we don’t, society will for us — and we will always fall short. Our lives will be an endless race for the next best thing. We’ll never experience contentment.

36. Define what wealth and happiness mean to you

Change freaks people out. It immediately pulls you from your comfort zone. Which is exactly what you need. You’ll often feel like a fraud. But impostor syndrome is exactly what you should be seeking.

35. Make a few radical changes to your life each year

When you wake up and put yourself, not other people first, you position yourself to win before you ever begin playing.

34. Check your email and social media at least 60–90 minutes after you wake up

Paying rent is like working hourly. You get money while you’re on the clock. When you’re not on the clock, you get no money. Earning equity is like having residual income.

32. Drink 64–100 ounces of water per day

Expect optimal performance from yourself and let the chips fall where they may. Put most simply: Do what is right, let the consequence follow.

26. Stop obsessing about the outcome

“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve.”If you don’t believe in your dreams, the chances of them happening are slim to none. But if you can come to fully know the things you seek will occur, the universe will conspire to make it happen.

25. Choose to have faith in something bigger than yourself, skepticism is easy

Juicing is an incredible way to get loads of vitamins and nutrients from fruits and vegetables.

While all of that untapped energy gets removed, a new wave of positive energy comes into your life. You can use that energy in more useful and productive ways.

22. Remove all non-essentials from your life (start with your closet)

There is always a faster way than you originally conceive. Actually, goal-setting can slow your progress and diminish your potential if you rely too heavily upon it.

21. Decide where you’ll be in five years and get there in two

Use this technique and you’ll be consuming as much information as you once consumed caffeine.

20. Listen to audiobooks and podcasts on 1.5 or 2x speed, your brain will change faster

Eating protein first decreases your white carbohydrate cravings. These are the types of carbs that get you fat. Think bagels, toast, and donuts.Protein-rich foods keep you full longer than other foods because they take longer to leave the stomach. Also, protein keeps blood-sugar levels steady, which prevents spikes in hunger.

19. Consume 30 grams of protein within the first 30 minutes of waking up

The more you express love (like gratitude), the more other people feel love for you.

18. Say “I love you” 3+ times a day to the most important people in your life

Don’t be surprised as your habit of graciously saying “thank you” turns into even more to be thankful for.

17. Say “Thank you” every time you’re served by someone

Your 20 seconds of daily courage will most consistently involve saying “no” to stuff that doesn’t really matter. “No more yes. It’s either HELL YEAH! or no.” — <a href="https://sivers.org/hellyeah">Derek Sivers</a>

16. Say “No” to people, obligations, requests, and opportunities you’re not interested in from now on

Cold water triggers a wave of mood-boosting neurochemicals which make you feel happy.Just do it for 60–90 seconds, then get out. You’ll be very pleased.

15. Replace warm showers with cold ones

Sleep is just as important as eating and drinking water. Despite this, millions of people do not sleep enough and experience insane problems as a result.

14. Get 7+ hours of sleep each night

Waking up early allows you to proactively and consciously design your day. You can start with a morning routine that sets the tone for your whole day.

13. Go to bed early and rise early

Taking the time to spontaneously — as well as planned — helping other people is one of the greatest joys in life.As <a href="https://www.lds.org/general-conference/2008/10/finding-joy-in-the-journey?lang=eng&_r=1">Thomas Monson</a> has said, “Never let a problem to be solved become more important than a person to be loved.”

12. Do something kind for someone else daily

Twenty seconds of fear is all you need. If you courageously confront fear for 20 seconds every single day, before you know it, you’ll be in a different socio-economic and social situation.

11. Do something everyday that terrifies you

When you detox from the toxic filth that is public news, you’ll be startled as your worldview becomes radically more optimistic.

10. Stop consuming the news or reading the newspaper

You’ll be blown away by how much more connected you feel to your loved ones when you can give them your undivided attention.

9. Fast from the internet 24 hours once per week

7. Stop consuming refined sugar

What are the things you absolutely must do before you die?The death-bed mentality is the only way to live. Stop pretending you’ll live forever.

6. Make a bucket list and actively knock items off

You will never find a better personal development seminar or book than marriage. It will highlight all of your flaws and weaknesses, challenging you to become a better person than you ever thought possible.

5. Marry the person you love

This habit will change your life. Your journal will:<ul><li>Clear your emotions serving as your personal therapist</li><li>Detail your personal history</li><li>Enhance your creativity</li><li>Ingrain and enhance your learning</li><li>Help you get clarity on the future you want to create</li><li>Accelerate your ability to manifest your goals</li><li>Increase your gratitude</li><li>Improve your writing skills</li></ul>

4. Write in your journal 5 minutes per day

Ordinary people seek entertainment. Extraordinary people seek education and learning.

3. Read 1 book per week

Whatever your approach, the goal should be clarity and focus.

2. Pray or meditate morning, mid-day, and night

50 Ways Happier, Healthier, And More Successful People Live On Their Own Terms

We don't have to become slaves of our own goals, but rather, we should create them in order to know the direction we are heading to.

1. Set Realistic Goals

It's necessary to rely on science-based tools for motivating ourselves. It's not enough to rely on motivational videos we watch on the internet.

2. Create the Motivation to Make them Happen

If we had to decide whether we should or not execute to achieve our goals, we could be tempted to say things like: "I will do it next year". Therefore, it's important to avoid thinking a lot on deciding what to do next. The only way of doing so is by creating habits.

3. Automate Behaviours to Execute on them

What Do We Need In Order to Achieve Our New Year's Resolution?

With the holidays in mind, I am sure that many of you must be very excited. But why exactly do we get so excited?Dopamine is a chemical messenger made in the brain which is released when expecting a reward. In other words, whenever experiencing an activity that is pleasurable, dopamine is released. When dopamine is released, you end up feeling more happy than you did in the moments prior. While you're opening your Christmas presents, the dopamine levels in your body increase in anticipation of getting the present inside. With that being said, enjoy the rest of your holidays!

How does Dopamine Work?

Dopamine is strongly associated with pleasure and reward. It's also involved in motor function, mood, and even our decision making. Learn about symptoms of too much or too little dopamine and how it interacts with drugs and hormones.

Turn your bedroom into one. Get a kettlebell and some resistance bands. You’re good to go. There are a million YouTube videos about working out from home.

1. Working out — Don’t have a home gym? 

It’s not like you have to be anywhere. If you can’t get 8-9 hours of sleep at night, squeeze in some naps during the day. It’s good for your immune system and you’ll feel better. But you must adjust your mindset: Instead of grabbing your phone, grab a pillow.

2. Sleeping (a lot)

I’m spending this time together with my close family. It’s more about being around people you genuinely care about. That will lift your spirits and give you energy.

3. Spending time with people you love

Everybody should know how their body functions. I also like to read about the latest scientific research about health and fitness.

It’s always nice to sit down at the end of a day and reflect. What did I do today? What did I learn? What am I going to do tomorrow? Answering those questions is the best time you’ll spend every day.

5. Journaling

Always be learning a new skill. I started practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu a year and a half ago. But I can’t go to classes now. I also picked up archery a while back. Fortunately, I have enough space at my office so I built a small indoor archery set up. I always want to learn a new skill because it reminds me that I’m always a student.

6. Learning a skill

— I like to read and hear about investing strategies of different people. Even though I consider myself a value investor, I still look at what day traders do. I’m interested in finance because I don’t want to waste my hard-earned money. This will come in handy when the coronavirus crisis is over.

7. Making a financial strategy

I start and close my day with reading. And I never miss a day.

8. Reading

It’s nice to have a good conversation with someone who has the same mindset as you. I’ve grown to hate shallow conversations. So I don’t waste my time anymore on people who I don’t have a deep connection with.

Yes, I’m not totally shutting myself off from the news. I still want to know what’s going on. But I limit my consumption to 3/4 times a day. Last few days, I’m only watching the evening news. That’s it.

10. Skimming the news

I can spend hours browsing books that I want to read. But I try to not overdo it. Otherwise, you’re reading more ABOUT books than reading actual books.

11. 

I love some good banter. Life is hard and if you don’t laugh about yourself, you only make it harder. This is very important during difficult times. If you don’t know how to laugh, listen to a podcast by your favorite comedian. You’ll find out what I mean.

12. 

By simply observing your mind, you can learn a lot about how you operate during a crisis. How do you respond to fear? What do you think about all day? Simply observe and learn. That brings you more inner calm.

13. Meditating

Every minute you spend on advancing your life is time you don’t regret spending.

14. Working on your goals

Everyone should create something now they are at home. Think about what you can do with what you already have. I’m currently working on two new books and an online course. You can create digital products or services. But you can also create something physical if you have the resources. Be creative.

15. Creating something

We're wasting more of our time than usual now. Ask yourself: Are the things that I’m doing while I'm quarantined worth my extra time?

Why I'm able to study 4 hours with NO breaks (how to stay productive)

“We can embrace love; it's not too late.Why do we sleep, instead of with hate?Belief requires no suspensionto see that Hell is our invention.”

“Without a gleaning of purpose in life,we have no vision, we live in strife”

“Holy men tell us life is a mystery.They embrace that concept happily.But some mysteries bite and barkand come to get you in the dark.”

“Is there some meaning to this life?What purpose lies behind the strife?Whence do we come, where are we bound?These cold questions echo and resound through each day, each lonely night.”

“In the real world as in dreams, nothing is quite as it seems.”

“Humanity yearns so desperately to equal God’s great creativity.In some creations, how we shine: music, dance, story weaving, wine.”

“Every eye sees its own special vision; every ear hears a most different song.In each man’s troubled heart, an incision would reveal a unique, shameful wrong.”

“Life without meaning cannot be borne.We find a mission to which we’re sworn”

“Night has patterns that can be readless by the living than by the dead.”

“We make Hell real; we stoke its fires. And in its flames our hope expires. Heaven, too, is merely our creation. We can grant ourselves our own salvation. All that’s required is imagination.”

“We long to find the splendid light that will cast a revelatory beam upon the meaning of the human dream.”

“Evil is a faceless stranger,living in a distant neighborhood.Evil has a wholesome, hometown face,with merry eyes and an open smile.Evil walks among us, wearing a maskwhich looks like all our faces.”

“To know the darkness is to love the light, to welcome dawn and fear the coming night.”

“Darkness devours every shining day.Darkness demands and always has its way.Darkness listens, watches, waits.Darkness claims the day and celebrates.Sometimes in silence darkness comes.Sometimes with a gleeful banging of drums.”

“Pestilence, disease, and warhaunt this sorry place.And nothing lasts forever;that’s a truth we have to face.”

“There’s no escapeFrom death’s embrace,though you lead it ona merry chase.”

“Courage, love, friendship,compassion, and empathylift us above the simple beastsand define humanity.”

“Or are their dark fears exaggerated?Are these doom-criers addlepated?Those who fear the coming of all Hells are those who should be feared themselves”

“Stranger fiends hide here in human guise than reside in the valleys of Hell.But goodness, kindness, and love arise in the heart of the poor beast, as well.”
