3. The sky is the limit: Don’t indulge in self-limiting thinking. Think empowering, think sitting on top of the world, be able to fly to the top... start thinking with every task "I can do this!".

5. Finish what you started: Train yourself to finish what you start. So many of us start bringing our own selves down with "oh I can't blab blab blab or I don't have blab blab blab" as we try to accomplish one task when the last task isn't done. Always finish one task before you begin another.
6. Positive Affirmation: Start writing positive affirmations for yourself. Post on your desk or write notes in your daily planner daily. You can also start with positive affirmations in keys areas of your life like your health, relationships, finances and career. Writing positive notes really do help you to be motivated.
7. Dare yourself to start dreaming big: If it's a vacation you dream of taken. Start thinking more of the details of that vacation. Where would you be going? What would you be doing? Who will you be with and what would you be wanting to see. Eventually you'll be able to start seeing the realities and how to make it happen.
8. Leave your comfort zone: Do you remember the first time you did something you never done before & left your comfort zone? Yes! at some point at first you might have felt scared but now when you think back, that day was more than likely a highlight of your life now. You left your comfort zone and I'm sure afterwards it made you feel really great. You had left your comfort zone.
9. Focus on the direction you want to go: If you don;t know what direction you want to go, you can bet you will find yourself lost. Start focusing on what direction you want to be going in life and then concentrate on taken that path to that direction.
10: Laugh at the setbacks and celebrate success: Take the time to stop and recognize your setbacks then laugh at yourself for being all worked up over it... and when you success with a task, celebrate your success with a massage or bubble bath, buy self a new outfit or go for dinner at that nice restaurant that you wanted to go to.
11. Meditation: The goal of meditation is to focus and quiet your mind. Eventually you can reach a higher level of awareness and inner calm. You can do this in the comfort of your own home, a local park or at a beach. Your main goal here is to be comfortable with your surrounds, close your eyes & concentrate on breathe in & out slowly. You can ppractice visualization where you are picturing calming images in your head (beaches, trees, waterfalls etc) are practice body scans where you concentrate on each area of your body being not but relaxed.
12. Help others: Sometimes you may think you can't help anyone but turn that around and see what you can do for someone. It might be just getting a coffee for a special friend, helping with an assignment or given advice.
