7. Take a Walk

Activities streets contain two major components in improving the quality of our lives, namely exercise and get closer to nature. Exercising will make us happy and filled with positive feelings. So, today you wear sports shoes and enjoy a walk around the compound or to a nearby park.

8. Thanking is love Always

9. Give Your Time

Time is a very precious thing for everyone. Often we hear people say that they do not have enough time and "if" they have more time. However, when they wake up the next day they still have the same time as yesterday, 24 hours.

My point here is, fill your time more meaningful. Make every moment means not only for yourself but also for people in need, the people you love. Maybe you take the time to read the story for your beloved daughter before bed, you might take the time each week to walk with your family, or maybe you take the time to follow the activities of charitable / social.

Giving your time to improve the quality of life of others, will automatically improve your life personally. The result you will smile more and more positive.

10. Try to Do Something New

Trying something new will make life more exciting. Don’t be far away, we start only from the taste. Try to enjoy the new dishes. When the next time you are thinking of visiting your favorite restaurant, sitting in your favorite chair, and ordered regular dishes you order, try to think back. Go to a new restaurant and order a unique food menu. It is the same when I first tasted catfish and it tastes good. Whereas before I was so amusement when I viewed a catfish. :)

There are many new things that you can do in life, like a new hobby, a new collection, new books, and even a new way to return to the house of your (taxi, bus, bicycle, etc.). Try to do something new every week, and after one year later you will have 52 ways to keep you smiling and positive.

11. Use 1 Hour A Day To Improve Yourself.

This is the most important of all. Commit to spending some time at least 1 hour for your self-improvement is something that is very important to the quality of your life, like air for your lungs. If you are not growing, then you are not going to move towards your tremendous potential. If you can not find your tremendous potential, then how you can achieve what you want in life? Success is not a fortune, but it is achieved through a commitment and dedication to yourself, your personal development and your determination to achieve the things you want.

Starting today, take your time at least 1 hour to develop yourself. See, hear and read books, stories, blogs, CD and DVD motivation. Fill your mind with positive things and look forward change in your self. Imagine a week, you thrive of at least 7 times, 30 times in a month and 365 times a year! Wow, amazing!!!

Before I end this post, I want to tell you a little about something that I get when I attended the seminar Mr. James Gwee first and incidentally still stuck in my brain until today. What I will tell you this is related to point number 11.

Mr.James said by that time, the average person spends 99% of his money to meet the needs of the human body from the neck down, like to eat, drink, buy new clothes, new shoes, etc. Only 1% they spend for the intake of the brain such as books, songs or cd-cd motivation. Whereas 99% is the brain that determines a person's success!

Messages Mr.James the time, do not be stingy or feel a loss if you spend your money to get things that are positive.

Okay dear readers, I hope my article this time gave a tremendous benefit to you.

11 Positive Quotes From Steve Jobs That Will Change Your Life

11 Positive Quotes From Steve Jobs That Will Change Your Life

Steve Jobs was a visionary figure of the world that is not only renowned for its commitment to the Apple, but also his ability to inspire people with his words of wisdom. Here are 10 of the most inspirational quote from Steve Jobs.

Overview of Steve Jobs

For those of you who do not know the name of Steve Jobs, at a glance Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs was an entrepreneur, inventor, co-founder, chairman, and CEO of the Apple world that release products such as iPhone, iPad, Mac, and so on. All reputable products that are truly innovative results of these visionaries, no other than Steve Jobs. Unfortunately, on October 5, 2011, the world should be a moment of silence for the death of the Visionary Steve Jobs caused by pancreatic tumors that have suffered since 2003.

For the record, Steve Jobs also is a co-founder of Pixar, which is a world-renowned animation film studio that has produced numerous renowned films such as Toy Story, Cars, Brave, Finding Nemo, and many others. He also is the sole founder of NeXT. Inc., American computer company that was established when he was fired from Apple.

1. Quality More Important Than Quantity

"Quality is more important than quantity. One home run is much better than two doubles."

Although you are not someone who enjoyed the sport of baseball, but the quote about "quality is more important than quantity," is one thing that can not be denied.

Through the example in baseball terms, Steve Jobs emphasized that one home run is better than two doubles. In baseball, a double is an event where a player can run to reach second base in one hit. Even if imaginable, the home run and 2 double is the same thing, but the quality of a given home run and a double is different to the fans of baseball.

2. Death is the best invention of Life

"There was no one who wants to die. Even those who want to go to Heaven do not want to die to be able to go in there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one is sure who managed to escape from it. It's like it should because death is the best invention of life.

Death is an agency that provides opportunities life. He picked the new parents to have the next opportunity. However, not long from now, you will eventually get old and is also picked up by him. Although this is quite dramatic, but it is something of the truth. "

Here Steve Jobs stressed that everyone will eventually be picked up by the death and it is not something that can be avoided. But we should be grateful for it because of the presence of death and everyone will have a new opportunity to experience that has never been done before.

3. Innovation is Say No to Thousands of Things

"I am proud of many things that we do not do as well with a lot of things we've done. Innovation is saying no to a thousand things."

"People think focus means saying yes to the thing you have to do. But actually not at all appropriate. It means saying no to the hundred other great ideas. You have to choose carefully."

Through this inspirational quote, Steve Jobs made it clear that every innovation is always created as a result of the sacrifice. Both sacrifices in terms of time, materials, or labor. There will be no innovation that is created when everyone is always spend everything for his own pleasure.

4. Do Glued in Success Too Old

"I think if you do something and it turns out to produce something that turns inspiring, then you should try to do other extraordinary, do not dwell too long. Discover just what the next thing."

The world has witnessed endless innovative invention from Apple with the fruit of the work of thinking Steve Jobs. This is what Steve Jobs wants to emphasize on the word of wisdom, that if you've managed to be a thing, do not be silent for too long will that success. Produce more something more remarkable.

5. Fired from Apple is the Best Of My Life

"Being fired from Apple was the best thing that ever happened to me. Loads of great success was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again. It allowed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life."

Some of you may already know that even though Steve Jobs is the co-founder of Apple, he has also been dismissed by force by the main stakeholders Apple. During the dismissal of Apple, he founded NeXT. Inc. Through this NeXT computer to create one of the most amazing inventions of the world that are the first web browser by Tim Benners-Lee, who is also the inventor of the World Wide Web (WWW), aka Internet. Today, the NeXT computer known as a base of Mac and iOS.

Through the story above, we can see that the dismissal of Apple actually provides an opportunity for Steve Jobs to enter one of the most creative periods in his life. From this, we can learn that the fall is not the end of everything.

6. Differentiate Successful Entrepreneur and The photo is Perseverance

"I believe that almost half of the things that distinguishes successful entrepreneurs with those who are not only perseverance (persistence)."

In the article "Top 10 Things That Will Happen When You Pursue Your Dreams," we can see that in the pursuit of the dream of fear, boredom, and uncertainty will come to you all. Here Steve Jobs stressed that through perseverance then the chances of success we were able to hold half.

7. Love Your Work

"If you do not love something, then you're not going to take more effort, working holidays, or challenge the status quo as far as possible."

In this case, the term status quo is a term that refers to will your circumstances in every day trying to be in a safe zone as long as possible. But no one is likely to be truly successful without ever challenging their safety zone. That's why you often hear the words “learn areas of work that you really love”.

8. Pursue Perfection

"You have to bake a cake that is very beautiful, but then you use dog poop for decoration."

The quote is pretty rude, isn't it? Probably is yes, but as has been known to many people, Steve Jobs is a perfectionist, and he did not like the instant track (shortcut), especially in the design. In this quote, he stressed that if you've created a very solid foundation and a good presence, you do not ruin it with an ugly design. These words issued by Steve Jobs to one of his engineers who worked at NeXT.

9. Focus Into Products, Not Into Profits

"If you always focus on profit and benefit, you will reduce the quality of the product. However, if you focus on produce an outstanding product, the profit, and the profits will follow."

In everyday life, such wisdom is already very visible. Many products out there that could potentially fail due to excessive in the search for profits, and also has many remarkable products out there that work because at first they did not see the profit produced such products but how to produce an exceptional product.

10. Try the Best

"If I tried my best and I fail, well, at least I've tried my best."

This is probably one of the best inspirational quote from Steve Jobs, simple but also very easy to understand. In pursuit of a dream, we often do not pour all that we have to try to achieve this dream but if we try our best then even if we fail, we will feel satisfied with the results of our work. Believe that even if you fail, you will learn many things from your efforts.

11. Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish

"Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish"

It is said that a cover quote was issued by Steve Jobs at Stanford University graduation ceremony in 2005. This quote has actually appeared on the back of a catalog of American edition entitled Whole Earth Catalog in 1974. The meaning of this inspirational quote itself is: "Do not never satisfied, always push yourself and do things that people say can not be done. "

9 Steps to a Positive Mental Attitude

9 Steps to a Positive Mental Attitude

I just finished reading a book called Keys to Positive Thinking. The book of Napoleon Hill and Michael J. Ritt, Jr. In my opinion, this book is one of the positive extraordinary books.

In this blog post, I will fill it with a summary of what I read in such as a great book.
If you want to read more complete, you can get in your local bookstore.

Okay, here's 9 Steps to a Positive Mental Attitude:

Step 1: Master Your Mind with Full Confidence

There is only one path to a positive mental attitude: You must control your mind with confidence. Our mind is the greatest miracle in the universe.

Everyone has an amazing treasure trove that is the brain and nerves. All the normal people in principle inherited the power to achieve everything that has been achieved by someone else or trying to achieve something else. We have the power to direct the spirit, emotions, instincts, tendencies, feelings, moods, attitudes and behavior towards an end result. It's up to you how to use all of this.

To counter all the negative things, affirm always like this:
"My mind is mine, I will control it!"

Step 2: Set Your Mind on What You Want and get rid of what you do not want

Most of the way we thought it would be replaced by the words, but the motivational deepest thoughts usually in the form of images, not words. If an idea appears, usually in the form of an image, not as a series of sentences that are running in our heads. The image is a way of thinking of the earliest and most powerful.

Therefore, we must learn to discipline our mind and visualize the things we want. Don't let other people dictate environmental or negative shadow on us.

Step 3: Apply the Main Law

Treat others as you want to be treated. Instead do not treat other people badly if we do not want to be treated as such.

Look for the good things in every person and every situation consistently.

Step 4: Eliminate All Negative Thoughts Through Self-Examination

Most people don't realize that they are thinking negatively unless they consciously sought to examine the thoughts, actions, and reactions of their own. Just ask ourselves, "Whether this is positive or negative?". When we failed to control our thoughts, then we tend to be a negative reaction.

The more we practice using positive mental attitude, the sooner we realize the emergence of negative thoughts.

Step 5: Be happy! Make someone happy!

So that we are happy, behave like happy people! To be excited, we must act vigorously.
You will eventually experience a sense of happiness and spirit will manifest itself without requiring you to focus on it.

Step 6: Form a tolerance habits

Think open to other people. Try to love and accept others as they are and not demanding or wishing they could as we had hoped. Look for the good in others, and learn to love others.
Here's a little quote from Napoleon Hill: "How long, oh Lord, we are weak creatures who will realize our folly to try to undermine each other because of differences of religion and race?"
Love and compassion to create an environment in which mental and physical can develop a positive mental attitude. Every day, do something good.

Step 7: Give Positive Suggestions In Yourself

The suggestion is certain stimuli are transmitted to the brain through your five senses: sight, hearing, taste, touch or smell. Everything is a road used for external elements to affect our lives every day. During this process, we can control, an effort so that what is included in the five senses is something useful and gives happiness. Take things that are beautiful only.

Step 8: Use the Power of Prayer

When you pray, believe in what you ask for. In every storm, your soul will get the protection of a prayer.

Step 9: Set Goals

Setting goals is one way to keep our thoughts on things we want, and stay away from things we do not want.

Write down your goals on a piece of paper. Visualize yourself being reached for this purpose. Make a plan to achieve those goals, and then change the plan into action.

Okay as usual dear readers; try to do what you can do in advance, step by step. Think and act positively established through an activity that is repetitive and eventually becomes a habit.

Maybe this article will be useful to the reader as well. ;)

The Difference Between Focus On Problem and Focus On Solutions

The Difference Between Focus On Problem and Focus On Solutions

I get this article from a colleague a few years ago. Yes, it's been a long time, and I found this article unintentionally when I'm clean up the files on my notebook.

I think it is useful for sharing to the readers of leadershipmojo.tk. The original article in Indonesian, so I need to first translate into English. The original source is unknown.
We only consider together:

Case 1

When NASA sent astronauts into space, they found that it turns the pen can not be used in zero gravity (ink will not be drawn out). To solve this problem, they do research for more than one decade and a cost of $ 12 million.

They designed a pen that can be used in zero gravity, facing upwards, even in the water, on any surface (including glass) and cold temperatures of 300 degrees Celsius below zero.

And what are the Russians doing?

They used a pencil ...... :)

Case 2

One of the most famous case studies in Japanese management is an empty soap box case, which occurred in the largest cosmetic companies in Japan.

The company received complaints from consumers that they are buying the soap that was empty.

With customer complaints, the section immediately went to the field towards the product packaging. Product packaging section is the last line of the production process before towards the delivery of the product.

They later found out that it was also empty soap boxes that pass through the packaging department, with some reason.

Management then asked his engineers to solve this problem. The engineers conducted experiments. They worked very hard and finally found the X-ray machine with high-resolution which is operated by two people to observe all the soapbox passing, to ensure that the soap box is not empty.

No doubt the results they achieve. They have worked very hard and fast, but they also spend not a small cost.

In the other place, a company with a much smaller scale find similar issues. But they do not use X-ray machines that are very complicated and expensive. They try to split in different ways.

They bought a special fan very strong and put it at a point in the packaging department. Once the fan is turned on, then any empty soap box and past the fan will soon blow away.

Case Closed.

What is the message to be conveyed from the two cases above?

Find all possible solutions to a simple problem. Start learning to focus on the solution, not the problem. :)

This story might be fictitious, but hopefully, this article inspires us all for having a better life in the future.

10 Extraordinary Life Lessons We Can Take From Michael Jackson

10 Extraordinary Life Lessons We Can Take From Michael Jackson

Still fresh in our mind, roughly one and a half months ago, precisely on June 25, 2009, Michael Jackson, king of pop music in the world, leaving us all. More than 1 billion people around the world, watching the funeral procession of the greatest entertainers of all time. I was to tears watched Michael left us so fast. We grieve deeply moved at the same time, given what has been given by Michael in us, in this world.

Whatever one thinks of Michael, all of whom agreed to one thing: Michael wants the world a better place. Through music, life and all of his work, here are 10 things he taught us:

What can we learn from his phenomenal songs?

1. It does not matter whether you are black or white (Black or White)

Every day in the world, people are fighting over something. Issues of race, ethnicity, religion or culture, making us split. It does not count how many human costs of the war, either directly or indirectly. Supposedly, no matter whether we are black or white, we unite and love one another as human beings. People are born different from each other instead of fragmented, but to appreciate each other.

2. Begin with the people in front of the mirror (The Man in The Mirror)

Have you ever thought to change the other person? Or even think your life would be much better if the environment around you changes according to what you imagine.
Our world is not perfect, but if you want to change, you have to start with yourself. Look in the mirror and ask the person who is in front of the glass to change. That's the only way. If we want to make this a better world, look at ourselves and make a change.

3. Heal the world (Heal The World)

As quoted in the song: "There are children crying and people dying and our world is Suffering." When that person have not been alerted to the issue of global warming, Michael was the first to call for this global warming issue. Now it depends on us all to improve the world from global warming, poverty, disease, education and other issues that bother us. Only our concern is what will make this world better for our children and the future of mankind as a whole.

4. You are not alone (You Are Not Alone)

Experiences and sufferings you are experiencing are not much different from the others. There will always be some help, support and love you, although you do not currently have anyone.
If you are reading this article right now, meaning you're getting support and encouragement.

5. Do not stop until you have enough (Do not Stop Til You Get Enough)

Michael earned a remarkable achievement in his life. His achievements as an endless journey. But the key to his success was that he did not stop. He worked very hard. One thing we learn from Michael: if you want something - you can have it for your strong desire and work hard to achieve it. So continue your efforts and do not ever stop.

6. We are the world (We Are The World)

As often as possible we think that we are the world, then we will not feel lonely. The only way we prosper is if we work together. One person suffers we all suffer, a grieving person then we are all in mourning. We are all connected to each other as human beings, so that if there is one injury, it is our responsibility to help him. As quoted in the song: "We are the world, we are the children and we are the ones who make a brighter day, so let's start giving."

What can we learn through life?

7. Do not let anything stop you from effort to give a light to the world

When you become a great and your light shines so bright, a lot of people trying to drop you. Do not let these people or anything extinguish your light; And do not be afraid anyway we do not have the opportunity to give something in this world. There are still many places in the world where you can give the light together.

8. It's OK to open your mask

Do not cover your actual self. Let people see who you really are and let people see the natural beauty of your personal. Be yourself. As also stated by Shakira music group in the lyric: "open the first mask, first open your mask ....";)

9. Learn to live with your state real

Maybe you hate your body shape, your face, your skin color or your hair. Starting today STOP hating your own physical. It is you! So how can you not love yourself? Your body is a gift from the Creator. Do you reject and hate His creation?

10. Always restore your childish nature

You do not need to visit the World Fantasy to play and laugh like children. Let go of your childishness. Meloncatlah with hands on and live with the joy of children. Look at the world full of wonders. Enjoy each day with gratitude.

Michael, thank you for what you have given us. Rest in peace. We will always remember you.

5 Things You Shouldn't Do To Have a Successful Life

5 Things You Shouldn't Do To Have a Successful Life

I am sure you have often read articles about things you should do to have a positive life, such as exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, read books, meditation, and much more. But what about the things you should not do? Below you will find five things I suggest you do not do:

1. Don't Make Bad Loans 

Before I explain what a bad loan, I will first explain about the good loans.
A good loan is when you use it to invest that will add value, such as loans for education or loans to businesses. Loans for a good education because education will increase your ability. Loans to businesses either because if the loan is managed correctly, your business will generate turnover and profit are good for you too.
Robert Kiyosaki, author of the bestselling book "Rich Dad / Poor Dad", adding that performing property loans is the right decision because the property has a tendency to rise in price.

Bad loan is when you use it for consumption, such as buying a car, clothes, vacation, etc., Where all of these things will not add value and even someday these things will be of no value. If you do not have enough money, unless very urgent, please do not use the loan money. Higher interest charges if not paid will accumulate very quickly. Eistein once said, "The most powerful force in the universe is compound interest." If you're taking a loan, then the force will start to attack you.

2. Don't Put All Your Eggs In One Basket

One of the most important things you learned in the lessons of any financial planning is about spreading risk. That is, you must distribute / break your investments to several sources to reduce the risk of loss. Actually, these lessons not only apply to financial planning, but also life as a whole.

You try to think that your life is supported by several pillars. This could be a career, finances, health, relationships with partners, hobbies, family ties, social communities, etc. If any of these pillars are broken, let's say you lose your job or a big fuss with a partner, you still have another pillar which still sustains you in life. In other words, what will happen if you just rely on one pillar and the pillar is problematic?

3. Don't Waste Your Strength

You waste the power you have when you let other people underestimate you, when you let others make decisions for you, or when you blame the people and environment around you.

Imagine if every day you get some coins to invest. These coins represent your time, your energy, your attention and your focus.
If you let others dissuade you from the pursuit of your goals because they assume you are not strong enough, or smart enough, or do not know enough, then you will just give you a few coins on the person.
If you blame your boss because you have not just got a promotion so you do not have enough money to buy a new car, then you just leave a few coins you on your boss.

It would be a wise decision if in pursuit of your goals are, you invest the coins you by not disregard the words of people who belittle you, it becomes a spirit burner you to prove to them that words are wrong.
It would be a wise decision as well if in your efforts to buy a new car, you look for other sources of income. So you will get a new car with no matter you are given a promotion or not.

4. Do With Your Life Too Seriously

Although in my previous articles, I often give encouragement to you in achieving your goals, it is important to remember that there is another life besides your big goal. You have to live a balanced life, not just glued to think about your dreams. Do not work too hard to pursue a sale, so you forget about time for a vacation, play with your kids on the weekends, and your hobbies. If you are interested, you can get the ebook 'How to Maintain Balance In Life' in menggapai-impian.com, which is a bonus ebook if you buy the main book.

5. Don't Give Up On Your Dreams

I'm sure you already captures the title above, so I do not need to explain too much longer. ;)
As Norman Vincent Peale said: "If you want to get somewhere you have to know where you want to go and how to get there. Then never, never, never give up. "

How to Find Happiness in 5 minutes?

How to Find Happiness in 5 minutes?

General advice that we often hear about how to get happiness is by changing our attitude or habit. It's very precise, but sometimes in certain situations, we need a quick and easy way to immediately elevate our mentality from the downturn.

The good news is there are simple methods that can instantly lift your mental immediately.
Below is a list of methods on how you can find happiness in just 5 minutes, following an explanation of how each of these methods works.

Few tips before you read any further: If you just read and then nod-nod in agreement, you will not get to experience anything. I strongly encourage you to practice it. No hard and believe you will get something out of the method.

1. Write a list of thanks

"Gratitude is the key to a happy life, because if we are not grateful, then no matter how we have, we are not going to be happy - because we always want something else or something more steadily."
- David Steindl Rast -

We often do not realize how many things we can actually grateful. I give you an example a little to lure your brain: you can eat 3 times a day, you can finish your work, you can return home safely, you can play around with your child, you can take a walk with friends, you can listen to your favorite songs, you are in good health, and many others. (See also 9 Reasons You Are Rich)

A study says that people whose lives are filled with gratitude suffered no significant health problems and feel much better life overall. They even made positive progress on the achievement of important goals in their lives.

These simple exercises 5 minutes I believe, can change your life:

How to find happiness in 5 minutes:
- Take a pen.
- Take a piece of paper.
- Rewind your brain since you woke up this morning to write to you at this time.
- Write down 5 things you are grateful for in your life.
- Perform 5 minutes every day to get the benefits permanent.

2. Celebrate the release of flavor you shackled

"Happiness always looks small if you just hold it in your hands, but if you remove it, you will learn how great and precious such happiness."
- Maxim Gorky -

I will give a few illustrations: one of the things that make us feel happy is when we have just recovered from illness. After a long time, we lay on the bed plus appetite is not good, finally, we can be happy because we can move back to normal.

Okay, the next exercise will create a mood that is similar to the above events.

How to find happiness in 5 minutes:
- Connect the alarm to go off in 5 minutes.
- Close your eyes in a circle with a piece of cloth.
- Perform your routine activities as far as you can.
- When the alarm sounds, open the lid of your eye.

3. Stretch your muscles

"Moving is a medicine to make changes to the physical, emotional and mental."
- Carol Welch -

People who practice yoga have proven that they have feelings and body condition is much better, even if the session they did quite short. Yoga is not the consumption of most people and it takes a strong commitment to do so. You can replace it with stretching movements simple. I used to do, especially after a long sitting in front of a laptop. After doing stretches, I am feeling better.

How to find happiness in 5 minutes:
- Rotate your head slowly clockwise, then counter-clockwise.
- Swing your left and right-hand circular toward the front, then towards the back.
- Rotate your waist. Make a clockwise, then counterclockwise.

7 Habits That NOT Highly Effective

7 Habits That NOT Highly Effective

You may already have read the book by Stephen R. Covey, entitled 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, which is also one of the international best sellers. If you've never read it, I highly recommend the book to you. Textbooks you need to have if you want to develop your personality. You can get them at stores your favorite book.

On this occasion, I would have told you shared his habits of people from the opposite standpoint, namely 7 Habits That NOT Highly Effective.

The seven habits you should avoid. Maybe you do not realize it because it has become your daily habit.

What are the 7 habits, let's see together:

1. Do not 'appeared'

One of the most simple but has a profound effect on you in achieving success - whether in social life, career, finances or health - is putting out yourself more often.

What does 'appeared' mean here? I'll give you an illustration: If you want to improve your health, then one of the most important and most effective things is that you appeared at the gym according to your training schedule.
Maybe then the weather wasn't in favor so that you feel unwilling to get out of the house. But if you keep forcing ourselves to go even if you are lazy, then you have to improve your mental lot faster than you just sit on the couch and watching TV.

I think this applies in all areas of your life. If you write more often, then one day you will become a top author where the results of your writing will always be waiting for other people to read. If you often meet or get together with friends, then your chances of meeting someone special increases.

Only with you 'appeared' more often will make a huge difference to your success. If not, you will not go anywhere.

2. Delaying the work

There are two conditions that cause a person to delay his work:

- First, he has a accumulates job. He wondered what he should do first. Finally, he did not do anything.

- Secondly, he only had a little bit of work, so he thought to put it off first.

Regardless of your condition, below are a few ways you can do so you can get out of the habit of delaying this:

- Do the hardest task first and foremost in the morning. A good start in the morning will make a positive momentum so that you will live the rest of your days with more spirit.

- You have probably heard a joke: how to eat an elephant? ... .. Do not eat it in one bite! If you just think the task that piled up awaits you, your head can become fatigued, will eventually bring you to a delay. Break down your tasks into small steps, and focus on the first step. Once completed, you can move on to the next small step. (I never review also in the article How to Stay Motivated To Solve What Have You Started)

- If you are thinking to suspend work because you only have a little bit of work, you should begin to think what if suddenly you get a new job while a long task yet you do. Always use the principle: 'do right now the things you can do right now'.

3. You do something that is not important

Another habit that is not productive, in addition to the delay, is your concern themselves with things that are not important.
To avoid this, write three important things you should do every day, whether on paper or in your notebook and start working from the top. Although you are only able to complete one job, but at least you've done the most important thing you need to do on that day.

Whichever method you use to organize your work, the top priority remains to find the most important things you need to do every day. This technique is also part of effective time management, so you do not spend your days doing things that are not important. Complete a job quickly fixed that matters if you do things that are not important.

I'll try to give you a simple example. Suppose you are a manager of a production department. Once your subordinates make mistakes so that the resulting product is defective. Which one will you choose :

1. You with your subordinates repair the defective product; or

2. You are looking for a solution so that the incident does not recur.

I think you've captured what I mean about things that are important and not important.

4. Thinking too long

People who think for too long will automatically make it less to take action. Stuck in excessive analysis can throw the precious moments in your life. There's nothing wrong with thinking before taking action, even needed such a thing. Conduct research, make a plan, explore potential benefits and problems that may occur.

But think, think and continue to think is another way wasted your life. You do not need to analyze all the things from every angle. You could not wait for the time that really appropriate to conduct your action. Believe that time will not come. You also do not need to worry about what if you went to failure. If you still think and continue to think deeper, then you will be more difficult to take action.

Stop thinking, now do whatever you need to do, go wherever you need to go.

5. Seeing the negative side of everything

When you see things from a negative angle, then the fact you've dropped your own motivation. You find flaws everywhere and problems that may not actually exist, for example, when you are looking for reasons not to do something. I believe from a negative angle you will find at least 10 reasons.

Another example, you look for someone who will listen to your complaints - when in fact no one wants to listen to your complaints - about the job and your life is saturating or your boss sucks. Know that you will create your life according to what you think and how you look at your environment. If you look at your life so drab, you will have a life really be boring.

All you do is none other than to challenge yourself to think positively for 7 days. Look at the remarkable results that you will be able to.

6. Stubborn to your guns themselves and reject the opinions of others

It is difficult to admit or high-minded that your opinion is not the best option. So you insist on your opinion and shut your mind from the influence of others. This condition can cause you hard to develop into a more effective private.

Suggestions for overcoming this problem is that you realize that humans have a limit on the things he knew. You must be open to receive lessons on your own mistakes, mistakes of others or other sources such as books.

When your brain is always cleared to accept new things, unconsciously you have risen to a higher level, and so on. But remember, do not also get stuck as described in no.4. The new knowledge that you received, you should apply and try out in your life, do not just be a mere knowledge alone.

7. Allowing the information flooding your brain

The opposite of point 6 above, at 7 this point you just let all information flow to your brain without filtering. If you do this, it will be difficult for you to think clearly. Some conditions that cause you like it is:

- Much of the information that you receive is negative. Media and the environment around you often give negative information, such as fraud, robbery, murder, gossip and so on. If you are not selective in the news, you can be negatively affected as well, whether it be in our thoughts, feelings, and actions.

- There is an urge within you to keep up to date information, but how quickly you keep abreast with the various tools you have, there will always be dozens or even hundreds of new things that happen that you can not follow. Hali it can make you stressful.

It's hard to make decisions and take action if your brain is continuously inundated with information. Even you can be stuck to the habit, as mentioned in point 3. You're busy and keep busy doing the work but not really a job that is not important.

To be able to focus, think clearly and take action, it is necessary to select qualified even if the need to restrict access to information coming into your brain, for example when you're finishing a job, you do things like turn off your phone, the internet and room doors you. You will see amazing results when you are not interrupted every 10 minutes by email or your favorite websites.
