When you go into the office everyday are you still feeling the same kind of hungry perseverance that propelled you so hard and fast while you were on the job hunt? Or are the days starting to feel more and more like mirrors of each other?

So many people are so concerned with the go-go-go of their lives they don’t slow down enough to consider the importance of stop-stop-stop. Sometimes people need a brain break.

Some people have no trouble with procrastination. They get up with a list of things to do and they do them, systematically without delay. Others have a list of things to do or more often, a single thing to do and they take it with them from pit stop to pit stop while their procrastination problem distracts them with unending diversions to keep them from stopping long enough to get on with their list.

No matter what your goals, big or small, you’re going to have to take concrete steps to get them out of the wish zone into the fulfillment zone.

The words you choose speak volumes about you and at the same time influence how others perceive you.

Everyone knows the importance of To-Do lists for keeping themselves on track and ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks. Often lost in the shadow of the powerful To-Do List is the less recognized but also important To-Don’t List.

What do you want your future self to say to you?

Sometimes feeling invisible stems from inside ourselves. In the course of trying to keep up with the day to day of life we forget how important it is to give ourselves a break. A walk outside at lunch, or an evening or morning stroll, can do wonders for clearing the mind and changing perspective.

All of us would like to get more done everyday, but slumps hit, our attention wavers, our motivation wanes and another day goes by with us having falling short of our best intentions.

Thinking about doing something is always harder than actually getting down to doing it. And the longer you spend thinking and putting off doing, the harder it is to get down to business.

We all know that by forming good habits and following through on them everyday, we can get a lot more done and feel better about ourselves. Sometimes before we can form those life changing good habits, we have to break some bad ones first.
