Just read this at the ASMP Strictly Business blog, 5 great points worth passing on. The last one really hits home. This idea that if you do things which you do not agree with, don’t settle with you or are self-destructive you will end up dis-liking yourself; which causes for a whole spiral of negativity, lost time and lack of creativity. Good stuff.
Mantras for a Good Life
1. Always have a dream. Believe in it. Believe in your ability to make it happen.
2. Keep your passions alive. For me, my strong interest in cultural stories will always keep me exploring. I need that and it gives my life perspective.
3. Set goals – even little goals are good and then reward yourself. They will all lead up to you making your dream come true.
4. Make decisions or they will be made for you.
5. Do the “right thing.” You will love yourself more if you do.
Good reminder. I ought to print this off and post it to my bulletin board.
