Two Powerful Online Tools for Creating and Managing Your To-Do Lists

5/2/2016

To-do lists are a useful tool for prioritizing your workload, for making sure you don't forget anything and for visualizing all the things you have to do. Once you've created your to-do list, you can then work through it one item at a time and that way get a real sense of progress as you tick each item off.

But these days a to-do list can be much more than simply a list of tools on a piece of paper. Thanks to the power of computers and the web, you can now get much more from your lists by using the right software.

Read on for some examples.

Can Creative Visualization Help Me?

2/10/2016

0 Comments

No matter who you are, where you come from, or what your ultimate goals are, creative visualization can help you.

We all want to succeed in life, and success is going to mean something different to each individual person. When you consider it, every one of our ancestors was a success, because they continued to live and reproduce. That bodes well for our potential success, too!

Our individual success goals vary greatly, as they should! For one person, success may mean a big house, several expensive cars, and a few exotic vacations each year. To someone else success means a cabin in the woods with a woodstove and enough cut wood to make it comfortably through the winter. Success is completely subjective, and there are no right or wrong answers.

How to Develop the Courage to Lead

It takes courage to be a leader, but even if you have fears that have kept you from leadership roles thus far, it doesn’t mean that you can’t overcome them and achieve positions of leadership.

Each decision you make in your personal and business life is a testament to your courage. Something as simple as refusing a rich dessert because you want to stay fit takes a certain amount of courage if you have gnawing cravings for sugar.
Other decisions you must make may be monumental and require the courage of a lion. A decision to quit a high-paying job to follow your life’s dream is a major decision that takes courage – and planning. And, some decisions may seem unimportant in the moment, but later you may see that they were life-changing.

So, how do you muster up the inner resources to step out there and go for it?

Without a doubt, by the time they sign on with me, the vast majority of my clients have a great need, if not always a highly leveraged desire, to develop a healthier attitude toward life. Stress, burnout, broken relationships, side tracked progress, and health scares have sent many of them a serious wake up call.

How about you? Would you like to approach things in a different way? Is a healthier lifestyle really attainable?

Granted, the stress of modern life can sometimes make it difficult to lead a healthy lifestyle. However, you can start living healthy, today, by adopting a healthy mindset. Even if you find yourself leaning toward a pessimistic attitude, you can still achieve a healthy mindset. You just need to go about it in the right way.

If you work with a team of people it is important that everyone trusts each other. Otherwise this makes working together extremely difficult. If members aren’t open to sharing their work, or sharing new information, the team will never see awesome results.

Leadership in today’s world requires new leadership values. No longer is a leader simply a person who can make a good photo op and inspiring speech. Today, a leader faces challenges with huge political, economic, and environmental consequences. A leader should have the ability to convince followers (and others) to change destructive habits, be good communicators, and focus more on the participation of women in leadership roles.

Leaders are prone to take risks and those risks may cause others to see them as "losers," especially if the leaders don’t have full knowledge of what the endeavor consists of before they become involved. Some mistakes come from thinking so radically that it’s impossible to know how taking a chance will turn out. If it turns out well, the leader is a hero. If not, serious consequences may be the result.

There are some common mistakes made among most leaders that are avoidable if you know some leadership strategies. Here are five common mistakes which can and should be avoided if you’re in a leadership role:
