Habits

Today had been one of those ineffective days where nothing much was accomplished. Such waste of valuable time. Somehow I disliked the way I had spent time, compared to the knowledge to invest it in a useful manner.

Thus, upon reflecting, I'm going to remember it as the day I lost to procrastination and to commemorate this day - I'll dedicate this post to myself of yesterday.

I hope you'll remember this lesson and be the Warrior you're meant to be. AHO!


Habits are the things we do naturally and automatically without thinking. They've been conditioned into us and come directly from our unconscious mind. Changing our lives starts with changing our habits, our automatic responses.

Behavioural scientists tell us that we can recondition or form a new habit within twenty-one days.
Success isn't by chance, luck, or some capricious God who rolls the big success dice and selects favourites at random. (Lucky is a good name for a dog but a poor excuse for success)

Success is about healthy habits, little things done correctly over time, that become big realized goals.
The absence of strong, positive habits can topple even the strongest pillar.

Make a commitment to develop good habits no matter what's happening around you - even when you're faced with tragedy.

Good habits and time are inseparable, aren't they? If you have an antagonistic relationship to time (you resent its laws), it only stands to reason that your habits will be erratic.

Time is a sacred, precious commodity that we've all needed, wasted, argued, and tried to bargain with. Napoleon Hill said that time will not tolerate indecision. In short, it's our greatest ally or worst enemy.

First, let's get one thing straight. Managing time is never going to happen.
All you can do is manage the way you relate to time.

I hear a lot of people say, 'Time flies when I'm having fun.' Not true. 'I just don't have time.' Again, not true.
Time is time. A day is a day. It's twenty-four hours.
A week is a week. A month is a month. A year is a year.

Time is nothing if not consistent. You cannot save time; you can only spend it or invest it. Tick, tick, tick.

The fact is, you have all the time there is. We all do, so stop fighting against it.
When you say you don't have time to work out, for instance, what you're really telling me is that working out is currently not important enough given everything else you've got on your plate.

How you spend your time, like how you spend your money, tells me what you value most.

If you're truly passionate about your intention, you'll focus your time on it, often to the exclusion of other activities.
If you're spending thirty minutes daily checking your voicemail, sixty on e-mail, 120 driving to and from work, does that get you closer to your goals?

Only you know, but you might want to start paying attention... or risk paying with pain.

Once you start working with your six action items, you'll notice that less you deviate from your list, the quicker you'll realize your goals.

Suddenly (and hopefully) those lesser activities will have less and less fascination for you because you'll see that they steal your dreams moment by precious moment.

Let's talk about Alchemy. Alchemy is the transmutation of one thing into another, moving something from one state of evolution into the next.
That's what we're going to do with your time. contrary to popular belief, a disciplined and organised life is actually a liberated life.

With your discipline, you're transmuting what was once chaotic and random into something organised and directed. This new directed energy can be focused like a laser into creating what you want.

Keep pushing. Keep moving. You're growing and expanding, as are your results. Yet it's a good bet that you'll be hitting some common roadblocks and stalling.
Yes I'm sure you're tired of writing this down. It seems redundant.
But you need to grab your attention by the scruff of the neck.

Besides, what could be more important right now than developing new habits - new ways of thinking and acting?

Wealthy people have the ability to give themselves a command and then follow it.
It's a true test of personal integrity and self-worth.

The greatest promise you'll ever keep is a promise to yourself. How much self-worth can you have if you're not honest with yourself?

If you can't count on yourself, how much can you expect others to respect and value you?

How can you expect to control universal energies if you can't even control your own energy?

Wealthy people - and I'm talking about those with Harmonic Wealth - don't waste time knowing what they want one minute and then allowing themselves to sink back into fear or doubt the next. That only attracts confusion and anxiety.

Great achievers focus only on their visions and fire those visions with wisdom, courage, and commitment, regardless of their current circumstances.

They know it's only a matter of time before their visions come into physical form. They know that the stronger their belief, the faster they'll attract the results they desire and replace their old programming.

The path will present itself. Don't get caught up in next week. Don't even get caught up in tomorrow. Get totally immersed in today.
You have your vision; you have your picture.
Now give it 100 per cent of your focus right now.
Get in the flow and go for it.
