    Life does not go as expect. There are always detours and challenges that get in the way of goals. Ray Dalio’s book “Principles”, is correct in that most of these challenges happen over and over in one’s lifetime and definitely throughout human history. If you develop principles for dealing with challenges then you will be able to get over them much quicker and with less pain.

    You can develop your own principles or adopt other people’s who may have been through a challenge you are going through currently. One of Ray’s biggest principles is Pain + Reflection = Progress. When you fail it causes pain and then you reflect on this pain and wonder how you can do things different then try again.

    Blog #178 – Go, Go, Go, STOP and REFLECT

    Take the time to review where you are at. Look at how far you have come. Feel the progress from where you are now and where you were.

    What have you accomplished that you didn’t even think was possible?

    What are some of the major lessons you have taken away from the hardships you have been through?

    What are you most proud of?

    What are you least proud of?

    Reflect back on your life and use it as an ultimate learning experience for where you are going. Where are you going?

    What do you want to do and accomplish?

    What are you working towards? Have you made progress? Why? Why not?

    Out of all the things you could do what would be the one next step that would make the biggest difference towards reaching your ultimate goals

    Look forward to where you want to be and you will find a way to get there. Focus on what you want. What do you want? Why do you want this?

    This why is your driving force. The bigger the WHY the more motivation and determination you will have to accomplish you goals. Goals change over time so you have to STOP and REFLECT.

  • Blog #130 – The Lows Make The Highs

    In life there will be plenty of low points but these are what make your high points so special. Feel the pain and let it sink in. Let the pain of the low points motivate you to work harder than you are now. The pain is temporary but the victories will last forever. Do not get trapped in you pain and think it will last forever. Nothing lasts forever.

    You have to know there is a light at the end of the tunnel. You have to believe. The worst part is we often hold ourselves back because of some reason. We must take enormous action and have excited goals. Progress is progress and success is built on success. We must gain momuntum by doing the right things. Starting is the hardest part. The more you fall off track and restart the easier it will become.
