Just Do It!

Believe in Yourself Tip #9

Do what you say you are going to do! It sounds easy, but how many times have you said that you were going to do something but then continue to let yourself down by not actually doing what you said you would do? You are not alone! This habit is very common.

Now is the time to change things up. Now is the time for you to actually do what you say you're going to do.

1. Tell someone what you are going to do (a coach, a spouse, a friend)

2. Put it on your calendar to schedule time to actually do it

3. Do the task when it's scheduled

4. Recognize how good it feels

5. Repeat

You will build confidence and trust in yourself by actually doing what you say you are going to do. I promise it works!

Fuel Your Body Properly

Believe in Yourself Tip #8

When you eat well, you can think well. Your brain requires proper nutrients and fluids so that it can function properly.

If you feel as if your thinking is foggy, choose to eat fresh fruits and vegetables and notice the change in your energy. The closer food is to it's natural state, the more nutritious and energetic it is.

All the cells in your body are made from the food you eat, including brain cells. For more information refer to the book "You Are What You Eat" by Gillian McKeith . Click here to review

Take Action!

Believe in Yourself Tip #4

The saying I've heard for years is: "Knowledge is power." However Darren Hardy shared something very interesting. He said that we have it all wrong. Darren shared that in reality "knowledge put into ACTION is power." 

The more I thought about it, the more I realized he was right! You can know something but, if you don't act on the knowledge, then there is no power.

Your tip for this week is about taking action on the knowledge that you gain. (Compliments of Darren Hardy)

1. Read a self-development book or re-read one of your favorites

2. Outline the tips/tricks/suggestions from the book

3. Write down how you are going to implement those tips/tricks/suggestions in your life

4. Take action and implement your new knowledge!

     

BONUS!  The next day you can use this list to stay on track and make adjustments as needed.
