Guest guest Posted December 31, 2003 Report Share Posted December 31, 2003 10 WAYS TO UPGRADE YOUR LIFE © Steve Pilkington 1. Reflect your higher self Align those things you value most with your goals in life. Your goals should express who you are and the things you hold most dear to your self. A deeper sense of fulfillment will come when your values are aligned with your goals. 2. Design environments which pull your forward. Stop " spitting " against the wind. Instead of trying to change yourself, design environments which serve to move your forward. Environments can be intellectual, spiritual, motivational, inspirational, etc...everything in your life is an environment. Use them wisely or create new ones. 3. Connect with your community. Our communities have the potential to sustain and nurture us (not just the communities we are physically located in). Connecting with community allows to be part of something bigger than ourselves. 4. Know and use your body. Exercise, eat right, get enough sleep. Take care of yourself physically...after all you only have one physical self. Expand what you perceive to be your physical limitations. 5. Take a risk. When we come to the end of lifes' journey I believe some of the biggest regrets we'll have are the risks' we didn't take. If we are too attached to doing things " the same old way " all the time then there is no room for risk taking. Take a risk and experiment. 6. Recognize failure as a good thing. Failure is not really failure unless we fail to learn. Setbacks can actually be stepping stones to success. Analyze and learn from those things you try and don't succeed at. 7. Live your life from your strengths. What is it that makes you different? What are you good at? All of us, without exception have gifts and talents to offer the world. Spend time developing and improving your strengths and that which you do best. 8. Don't die with your music still in you. So many people have so much to offer the world but many times we let fear hold us back. Share what you are passionate about with the world around you. Your passion is your music...don't die with it still in you. 9. Overcome your fears. Fear paralyzes us and keeps us from taking action. Confront and face your fears by taking some kind of action. Overcome your fears and experience growth like you've never dreamed possible! 10. Live in the present. Right now is actually all that any of us has. Yesterday is gone forever and tomorrow never comes. Don't rob yourself of precious life by looking backward or forward. Live in the present moment and experience life right now!
