No judgement here mate.  That is awesome however what I'm referring to is becoming  comfortable in places or situations in your life where you  know you shouldn't be comfortable.  Why do I say this well when you become comfortable  in those places if breeds complacency you become smug and  you can set aside in areas in your life.  Will you know you should be working and ultimately you'll  end up crashing.  So what do we do?  Well?  My advice is what you need to do is you need   to become curious in these areas dive deeper in learn  new skills because what that does is that builds competence  and confidence means that you develop in something new or  a Redefined skill which ultimately will end up leading you to  crushing your goals rather than crashing at the nearest hurdle  dark Skies have a good day.

1. Drink Caffine - Caffine not only gives us energy but it stimulates your ability to concerntrate, improves mood and increases motivation. Being alert helps you better understand information.  

2. Read more - Reading opens your mind up to new topics and stimulates your neural pathways, which in turn, improves brain function.  

3. Surround yourself with like-minded people - Spending time with people who are smarter than you will help you make connections with people who will continue to motivate and inspire you.  

4. Start exercising daily - Research shows that there is a strong connection between physical activity and brain function. Physical exercise promotes neuron growth which improves brain function.  

5. Learn a new language - Speaking more than one language improves cognitive ability and multitaking. Switching between languages requires more cognitive function and makes the brain work harder.  

6. Look for learning opportunities - Just because you finished studying at University doesn’t mean you have finished learning in life. Life is a continous journey of lessons and teachings. Use them as an opportunity to grow.  

7. Lower your screen time - Studies have shown that excessive smart phone usage is detrimental to cognitive performance. Delete unnecessary apps and set screen time limits.  

8. Practice meditation - Meditation is a powerful tool to improve brain function and increase emotional intelligence. Meditation helps to manage stress, anxiety and frees up mental space to learn new skills.  

9. Let your imagination run wild - Daydreaming and thinking creatively helps you to process information and connect ideas in your mind. This can help stimulate brain function and memory.  

10. Reflect on what you've learned - Being smart means you are able to apply your knowledge. Reflection allows you to obtain and retain information which give you the ability to use that information in everyday activities.

Are you sick of feeling hopeless. Anxious lost, or maybe you're going through this journey of life, but you're not quite sure where you're going. Well, something that I learned today is that every single thing in life is preparing you for something. So whether it's that past mistake or your regrets, or maybe it's time that you think you've wasted, everything in your life is teaching you something. So imagine if you are behind the wheel of a car and sometimes you'll be driving in the right direction with purpose and know exactly where you need to be. And other times you might be driving out of desperation and that is okay. It is in the moments in life where we truly find out who we are. Remember that everything happens for a reason. Trust in the process and get after it. Have a great day, everybody.

1.Embrace Being Wrong - There is so much personal growth in not just your mistakes but admitting you’re wrong. Admitting fault is hard for most people because of their ego. Get comfortable with being wrong and use it as an opportunity for growth.  

2.Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable - The ability and openess to negative emotions and dicomfort is the likelihood of success. Getting used to being uncomfortable teaches you to handle whatever life throws at you and builds resilience.  

3.Seek Education and Knowledge - People who truly advance in life are those who learn. Invest time in learning and reading. Education over entertainment always leads to success.  

4. Always Give and Overdeliver - Most people have the mindset of a taker rather than a giver. Rather than asking the question, “what’s in it for me?”, simply ask, “What’s in it for you?”. When you are expected to give, overdeliver and exceed expectations.  

5. Be Realistic - Dream big, set goals and don’t limit yourself. However it’s important to be honest with yourself. Look at life objectively and state the facts. Being realistic and honest with yourself creates clarity and a deeper understanding of yourself.  

6. Create Your Why - Your why is the reason you set goals. If you already have a why, deepen it. This will strengthen your connection to your purpose and motivate you to reach your goals.  

7.Keep yourself Motivated - Noone else is going to do it for you. You are in control of your emotions. If you feel unmotivated, try tweek or change things up a bit.  

8.Get Clear On Your Goals - Most people are vague about their goals and limit themselves to certain areas of life. The more detailed your goals and visions are, the more clarity you will have in life. Make sure to meet deadlines and take action.

Procrastination - We all do it! The best way to minimize time wasting is through having a clear plan and taking accountability for your actions.  

Keep It Simple - Creating a simple plan with clear steps and outcomes will help you to focus and set you up for success.  

Set Reminders - Puting specific appointments, dates, activities or tasks into your calender as a reminder, saves your brain from having to do it. This will give you the mental capacity to complete all your tasks effectively.  

Review Goals Daily - Goals are one of the most important componants to success and fulfillment. However, if they are not consistently reviewed and revised, they will never come to fruition.  

Include Productivity Apps - Although technology can be our biggest distraction, it can also be used to significantly boost productivity. Check out apps such as Todoit, Evernote and Asana to help you organize your life.  

Aviod Multitaking - You may claim to be a great multitiasker, but the turth is, it’s almost always better to work on only one thing at a time. Studies have show that multitasking can decrease productivity by 40%!  

Physical Health - Every heard the saying, healthy body, healthy mind? Havard business review found that people with strong mental health were 23% more productive and people who are physically healthy are 17% more productive.  

Focus On Focus - Burnout can lead to procrastination, lack of motivation and even illness or injury. Take breaks when necessary to keep the mind fresh and engaged.  

80/20 Principle - Put your most important tasks at the top of your list and get them done earlier in the day. This will enable you have more time to complete the less important ones later in the day when you are tired or have less capability.  

Routine - Ensure you have a consistent routines throughout the week. Waking up and following the same routine everyday has a massive impact on how productive you are throughout the your week. Remember consistency on a daily basis compounds to great effect in the long-term.

Decide Whats In Your Routine - Do you want to get in shape or have more time to yourself? Making sure you know what is important to you before starting is key!  

Set Small Goals - First create your big goal, then break it into smaller goals. Having a big goal that you want to achieve is great but it can result in failure if you take on too much.  

Create A Plan - Start by planning one week at a time. Plan small and build on your achievements. Write it all in your calender to keep you accountable.  

Be Consistent - If you want to read daily. Try to do that at the same time everyday. Completeing tasks early in the day when you have the most motivation allows you to enjoy the rest of the day freely.  

Preparation - In order to minimize delay, make sure you know exactly what needs to be done before you start. If you want to go to gym in the morning, set your gym clothes and equipment out the night before.  

Have Fun - trying to achieve new goals is never easy, but that shouldn’t stop you from making it fun. Find an accountability buddy, put on your favorite playlist or take on a course to help you enjoy your new routine.  

Track Progress - Create a visual calender or journal so you can check off each task as you complete them. Put the most important tasks at the top and work your way down from there. This provides organization structure and accountability.  

Reward Yourself - Once you have cracked the new routine, go out and do something you enjoy. You’ve earned it. Small rewards on a consistent basis inspire continous motivation and progress.

Famous words by Jay Shetty.  

Use T.I.M.E every monring when you get out of bed and watch you life change!  

DO NOT SNOOZE! - It causes fragmented sleep because the extra 15 minutes or sleep time you are getting is not productive sleep. This usually leads to you feeling tired and foggy!  I use a principle called T.I.M.E.  

1.)THANKFUL- Find 5 things to be greatful for everyday. Write them down and say them out loud. Be thankful for opportunities in your life whether it be for loved ones, gifts, friends, nature, lessons, food, shelter or health. Gratitude improves one’s outlook on life.  

2.) INSPIRATION- Find inspiration in something everyday. Listen to a podcast, red a book, review your journal to remind you of the lessons you have learned or volenteer. Inspiration shows us new opportunities and allows us to exceed our normal limitations and experiences.  

3.)MEDITATION- Use meditation to reflect on you life. Sit in a qu  iet space or lie down. Close your eyes and breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds and breathe out for 4 seconds. Make sure you breathe into your stomach and lungs. Repeat this action while breathing in positive energy and thoughts and breathing out the negative enegery and thoughts until you feel at peace. Meditation brings calm and balance into one’s life.  

4.)EXERCISE- Whatever exercise you prefer to do, just get after it! This will get those endorphins going and set the rest of your day up for success.  TIP: Make sure to get at least 7–8 hours of sleep everynight.  TRY IT FOR A WEEK AND WATCH YOUR LIFE CHANGE!

1.) Narcissist - You can be considered a narcissist if you often wear clothes that are brighter and also wear more accessories. Narcissists do this consciously or unconsciously in order to project their appearance motives.  

2.) Actions & Movements - People tend to lean towards people they like and lean away from people they don’t like. People leaning in, with hands out and open and palms facing up, it shows they are connecting with you in some way. However if they are hiding their hands, it could mean they are hiding something. Crossing arms or legs is considered a position of anger, defensiveness or self-protection. Lip biting or cuticle picking could show that someone is trying to soothe themselves in an awkward situation.  

3.) Shoes - Your Shoe choice can be an indicator of your personality. People with comfortable shoes tend to be more agreeable and people with uncomfortable shoes, more calm. If you wear Ankle shoes you are considered aggressive and if you wear well maintained shoes you are considered anxious or clingy.  

4.) Smile - If you are extroverted you smile naturally while introverted people smile more to maintain a happy look in public. You can also usually gauge this by someone's body language when they smile.  

5.) Walking Style - If you walk with your weight forward and quickly, you are considered to be logical and organised whereas if you walk with your shoulders pulled back and your head held high, you are considered charismatic and socially adept. (Also might love the spotlight!) If you are light on your toes, you are often considered an introvert or polite.  

6.) Eating Style - If you eat fast, you are likely ambitious, open to try new things, goal-oriented and possibly impatient whereas Slow eaters show they are in control and appreciate life. Adventurous eaters will step out of their comfort zones while picky eaters are difficult to please.  

7.) Intelligence - For men, longer shaped faces, big nose and distance between the eyes means you are smarter as opposed to broader rounder faces with a small nose and gap between the eyes. You cannot tell a woman’s intelligence by looking at her.  

8.) Posture - People who hold their head high are generally more confident and if they are indecisive or cower when walking, they might have low self-esteem.  

9.) Selfies - It might seem desperate or a need for attention but If you happen to look more positive in a selfie, you are potentially open to more experiences.  

10.) Leadership - The best leaders will display their characters transparently for everyone to see. Leaders will expose their values, beliefs, morals and convictions clearly in public. Leaders have integrity and do not question their character.

Are you suffering with regret? Are you constantly thinking about something you did in the past and you just can't forgive youself? Here are some steps that have worked for me.  

Tips for coping with regret:  

1)Practice Self Acceptance - Accept what you are feeling because everyone makes mistakes. Your value isn't defined by your mistakes and failures. 

 2)Forgive Yourself - This was the hardest part for me. Beating yourself up with guilt, fear, anxiety and shame sparks more neagativity in your life. Let go of anger,resentment, dissapointment as these cause us more pain and suffering. Practice self compassion and don't punish yourself. Be kind to yourself but also take responsibiity for your actions.  

3)Apologize Forgive yourself but it's also helpful to apologize to other people if they were involved in the regret. A sincere apology show others that you feel remorse and that you empathize with them.  

4)Take Action - Use those experiences to fuel future action. Consider what you would change and do differently. It's important to note that what is in the past cannot be changed, but you can reframe it and learn from it to make better choices in the future. Past event don't determine your future. Past mistakes make us who we are today.

If you think someones else think’s you are smart, you will allow yourself to feel smart. But if you think someone else thinks your weak, you allow yourself to feel weak. We let what we think other people think of us, define the choices that we make on a daily basis.

Criticize - Critics are always super judgemental and will find something wrong with everyone they come accross. It challenges our sense of value which in turn, makes us feel insecure and not worthy. It implies judgement which creates anger and defensiveness.  

Compare - Competitors are always complaining and trying to compare themselves with other people. They are always focusing on other people which puts focus on the wrong person when rather they should be looking inward at themselves. Comparing is energy sapping and leads to low self esteem.  

Complain - Nothing will ever be right or good enough for them. They are always looking for reasons to find something wrong with anything. Complaining increases your level of cortisol which in turn leads to stress. Studies have shown for it to even cause damage to the brain.  

Below are some tips to help you with low self esteem:  Write a list of things you admire about yourself - It can be hard, but sit down and think about what good traits you have. Acknowledging your skills and likable traits can improve self-talk. Buy a journal and use it to reflect.  

Stop being a people pleaser - People who have low self esteem try to please other people. They put others first before prioritizing their own mental health. These people are easily overwhealmed and it causes stress. Be kind and help others but put yourself first!  

Step outside your comfort zone - Low self-esteem causes us to go back into our shells and avoid challenges and opportunities. Try something new, even if it may be difficult at first. By succeeding in something small, it can have a major boost of overall self-esteem and confidence.  

Forgive yourself for any past thoughts - Your self-worth and the progress you make in life should not be connected to other people. It’s not easy at first, but staying away from social media is a massive step in the right direction. Remember people only share the best moments of their lives on social media. Detox and forgive yourself. Noone is perfect.  

Celebrate your wins - Any win is a victory, no matter how small. Acknowledge those feelings or achievement and pride and, embrace them. This helps to grow self confidence and belief in oneself and in turn, improve self-esteem.  

Let go of negative or toxic people - Holding onto toxic relationships prevents personal growth. Regret is associated with guilt and shame. All of which spark negativity. Learn to let go of the things in your past. This is your life and it is playing out exactly how it is meant to be.  

Surround yourself with positive people - Build relationships with people around you who share the same ideas, goals and ambitions as you. Find people who are positive and appreciate you for who you are.  

Take care of your body - Start exercising more regularly or try a new sport. Go for long walks and reflect on your wins. Start meditating and writing a journal. Sign up to a yoga class or start stretching. Fill your body with healthy foods and nutrients. Find a healthy routine that works for you and stick to it.  

Use these tips to better yourself mentally and physically and watch your self-esteem flourish and improve your life.  Negativity is contagious. Stay away from it! Hang in there, you’re not alone.

Happy new year everybody. What’s the first thing everyone does to kick off the new year? They set goals. This Episode is All about goal setting! We start the episode by talking about goal setting and what a goal actually is in this context. Nicola touches on values and the importance of values when setting goals. We then dive into the acronym SMART, and elaborate on each individual letter to get a better understanding of how to put this goal setting strategy into action. Nicola talks about the benefits of goal setting and the physiological benefits of goal setting regarding dopamine and the brain. We discuss how small incremental gains can get you to that long-term goal and why it is so hard for people to stick to their goals.
