Here is another habit you will love because it
brings joy and happiness into your life...automatically!
Here is how it works.
We all have activities that we engage in
that bring us joy and happiness.
It could be a craft like woodworking, or sewing, or a hobby,
a recreational activity or sport. We all enjoy some type of
leisure activity that brings us joy.
Here is an example:
In my life, one activity that brings real joy and
happiness to my life is boating. I live in Miami and I love
to go out in the ocean in my boat. I love seeing the vast expanse
of the ocean, the beautiful blue green waters, it makes
me feel close to nature.
I love taking my family and friends out in my boat, it makes me
happy to see the smiles on their faces as they enjoy
the great outdoors.
The problem is that I can only go boating when the weather is
good, and when I have time off from work.
How can I enjoy boating without actually going out in my boat?
One way is to subscribe to magazines or newsletters about boating,
fishing, and the outdoors. These magazines are automatically
delivered to my door every month, they contain beautiful pictures of
the ocean and boats. They also contain reviews of boating
equipment, maps of places to go, and stories about boating
adventures.
As I read these magazines and look at the pictures, they make
me feel great! They bring joy to my life because they take
me out in the ocean...even if only in my mind.
You can also download pictures you love and put them on your phone,
when you are sad...pull out your phone and get some instant joy!!
Pets are great for bringing joy and happiness.
Create a PC screensaver with your Joy pics.
Guess what?
I can feel stress melting away when I look at the pictures on
my phone, read the magazines, or watch the fishing videos online.
You can do the same thing.
No matter what your hobby or recreational interest is, I can bet
you that there is a magazine and/or online newsletter that
covers it. There are magazines that cover sports, fitness, health,
hobbies, recreation, lifestyles...you name it.
The beauty of magazines is that unlike the internet, they are
delivered to your door through the mail automatically. They are
physical objects that you can hold in your hand and look at,
and they are very inexpensive.
They provide information and images that can bring joy to
your heart...automatically.
Go to your local bookstore and browse thru the magazine section.
Look for magazines that will make you happy in the same way that
the boating and fishing magazines make me happy.
Subscribe to them and enjoy them as they come to your home every
month.
The best part about this habit is that when the magazine arrives at
your door and you read it, you will smile....and think of me!

The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention
"The smallest good deed is better than the grandest intention."
- Unknown
A number of years ago it became popular to talk about and practice
"random acts of kindness". That is still an excellent focus of
attention. It is especially true if you are someone who is caught
up in your own world so much that you seldom see the opportunities
that exist around you for lending just a little touch of kindness.
Your actions can be so simple; give the cashier eye-contact and
genuinely say thank you, hold the door open for the elderly person
with a cane, carry something for someone whose hands are full or
thank the people you live with for doing their share of the
mechanics of living.
Think back to a random act of kindness someone did for you and how
good it felt. If you are someone who prides yourself on being
self-sufficient, the next time someone offers you a random act of
kindness, receive it. You will be giving both of you a gift.
Notice all the times you have opportunities to bestow a kind act on
someone and listen to the reasons you don't do it. Some of the
most common excuses are being too busy, not wanting to interfere or
be intrusive, or not knowing what to say or do. There are no right
or wrong ways to be kind. Dare to push your limits a bit and take
the first step.
Today practice a random act of kindness and tell no one about it.
"Character building begins in our infancy and continues until
death."
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Failure Is Essential To Your Success By Melanie Benson Stric
StomperNet Faculty and CEO of Success Connections, Inc.
Last week on a member call a new entrepreneur asked me, “What steps should I take so I don’t look bad when I’m just getting started?”
My response was, “If you are worried about looking bad, you are in the wrong line of work.”
Every uber-successful entrepreneur I know has screwed up royally at some time or another. Call it failure, experimentation, breakdowns or whatever you want, but if you haven’t had at least one massive failure, then you are probably playing it too safe.
I’m not saying that making big mistakes is easy – but when you make a mistake, you are attaining one of the most important mindsets of top performers…
“Recognition that failing is a natural by-product of the process of seeking success.”
I actually read this quote in a fantastic book called Go For No by Richard Fenton & Andrea Waltz. In one chapter they outline five levels of failure that humans move through (again assuming that we all accept the power of failing as good).
In the five levels, the higher levels of success equal a higher level of failure! The belief being that the faster you commit to failing, the faster you recognize your goals.
Fascinating!
A-ha moment: this is an opportunity to reprogram lifetimes of bad programming you’ve received – not to avoid failure, but to seek it out!
Are you still breathing? For some personality types this will feel like walking yourself to the edge of a cliff and jumping – without a safety net! We are not all capable of taking big risks. That’s why some people make better employees.
But entrepreneurs MUST cultivate confidence with seeking out opportunities to fail. Here are the reasons why:
* Failure means you are learning and growing. If you aren’t learning and growing, then you are stagnating.
* When we fail at something, we identify that which we are not good at or don’t like to do.
* Persistence is strengthened when faced with obstacles. To sustain high levels of success, this is an essential trait.
* Failing keeps our ego in check. Nothing like a good failure to bring us back into humility!
* Not achieving something strengthens us. That saying “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is true.
* Know that sometimes the purpose and power of failure is to realign back to your truth.
Many years ago I desperately wanted a key role with Motorola on a project for the City of Los Angeles. I didn’t get the job, and I saw it as a huge failure. My dejection didn’t last long though when I realized that the entire project team was spending more than half of their life commuting back and forth every day. I realized I had been “spared” and I set my sights on starting my own venture.
When Should Failure Be Avoided?
Sometimes it does make sense to avoid a sizable failure. If a failure would cause you to lose something valuable to you (like a marriage), put you in undue emotional stress, or derail you unnecessarily from a sure thing, then it might be worth exploring some risk mitigation strategies to lessen the impact.
Decide what you are willing to risk and design a filtering process to factor out avoidable mistakes. Some questions to ask yourself might be:
* Does taking this risk get me closer to my stated goals and dreams?
* If it doesn’t work, will I put myself in undue financial or emotional stress?
* Do I have the time and financial bandwidth to give this deal everything
I’ve got?
* Is there another way to achieve it with less risk?
* Can I increase my chances of success by upleveling my support or resources?
So here’s the big question for your growth as an entrepreneur: what needs to change so that you become willing to fail more?
Here are some ideas:
1. Shift your story about failure from a negative to a positive. Make a new decision that when you fail you are actually getting closer to your goals.
2. Challenge yourself to take on ONE new venture that feels scary (you don’t need to do 17 at once…).
3. Explore an area in your life that you feel like you’re holding yourself back. Decide to do the opposite of what you normally do for 3 weeks to challenge your comfort zone.
4. Evaluate your current business for where you are fighting to keep things the same versus innovating and challenging the status quo.
And last, when you do fail (and you will), remember what you used to do when you fell off your bike. Get back up, shake it off, and don’t do what you did to fall off the bike again!
Enjoy!
