Self-Discipline Is the Key to Freedom

If you have been to bet how commonly the average character tries earlier than giving up, what would be your bet? 1, 2, or 3 times? The majority of people surrender before they even attempt. They spend so much time intention setting and preparing, that they forget the most critical a part of the plan: discipline. The biggest false impression approximately field is it's far something you have. Actually, the area is something you do. In your commercial enterprise, discipline is shedding habits that preserve your commercial enterprises returned, such as immoderate time on social media and fact television; and constructing up behavior that carries you towards success, including private development, prospecting, and income. Strengthening your self-discipline can be in comparison to building up a robust accept as true with the fund for your future. How some distance are you willing to head to accumulate that agree with the fund? Self-Discipline is a Skill Self-Discipline is not a

Short Term Wins

The 8 Step Kotter Model of Change Management is a gold mine of leadership.  We will address all the Steps, but I am starting at Step 6 because that is what came to me today. There is value in creating and celebrating short term wins, while on the journey to long term sustainable gains.  This celebration is not a distraction, it is an enabler of the right behaviors. Winning behaviors.  Celebrating short term wins, incentivizes winning, and winning is why we are in the game. Long term gains cannot be reached without short term wins. Why?  1. Not everyone will reach the long term, but everyone needs to feel it is worth trying. 2. Long term commitment is by itself, hard work. 3. People repeat what is celebrated. Willingly or unwillingly. What people repeat, is culture. It is thus shocking when I see leaders get scared of celebrating short term wins, using the excuse of maintaining a sense of urgency. I agree, a sense of urgency is always required, but if you get stuck in a s

A day in my journal

I shared a part of my journal entry with a friend recently. So I decided to share it with the world, because what is good for one can be expanded to all.   Journal entry on May 22, 2018.   Thankful Successful start of Line Management. Transfer of stipends to loved ones. Tithe payment. Do better Proactively manage meeting times and duration, to ensure prompt conclusion of the agenda. Ignore what adds no value. Not all calls for my opinion need to be answered. Decline meetings that only need me for credibility. Value addition or No-No. Learning People want more responsibility, but what helps them really grow, is smart trust.   - Osasu Oviawe

Pull out game

There are parallels between men that brag about their pull out game in sexual escapades and men that brag about their pull out game in investments. Sinister parallels. Let us talk about some. You really should not be in it If you have a pull out game as a strategy, you really should not be in the game in the first place. No matter how disciplined you are, in the moment of truth, it is really tougher to follow through on such a strategy, except you were never into it in the first place. You are not playing fair You are obviously working with insider information and actually playing other stakeholders for a fool. It is only a matter of time before you get caught out. You have been lucky Maybe your pull out game is actually weak and you have had many failures, but somehow, it never showed, so you still walk away from the room with your chin up. You have done many ineffable things A good number of abortions have followed your failures, just to keep up with the image. You are in it for the
