Life and Productivity Tips

Cut sugar out of your diet, it results in added fat and reduced brain performance. Stop watching filthy content, masturbation, sexting, and stalking. Laugh more often, it can help fight stress and sorrow, even a fake smile can help. Choose a life partner with good understanding level and intelligence to stay happy for life. Maintain relation with positive and optimistic people, avoid and disconnect with energy-sucking parasites from your life. Never hold a grudge, it'll ruin your mind, energy, and soul. Never compromise on your financial stability, push your ass to earn money. Life is too short, don't waste it worrying about things and people. Nothing lasts forever, not even you and your beloved ones, so enjoy every moment to it's fullest. Always consider your mental health, it's pivot point of your success, meditate, hiking on weekend, going for long drives, playing video games   to boost focus and calmness, continuing your hobbies and most of the travelling h...

Spending time  in damaging relationships  — whether its parents, partner or friends, put yourself first. Trying  to please everyone  — by doing meaningless favors, making decisions based on other’s opinion, etc. Pursuing  a career that you don’t care  about — to make your parents happy or to fit into society. Procrastination —  waiting for the day  when you will finally start crushing your goals. Avoiding pain  — not taking risks, staying in your comfort zone, not working enough, etc. Unconsciously watching Tv, movies, social media — trying to  escape the reality  of your life. Never growing as a person, realizing your potential — just  being okay with a mediocre you. You wouldn’t give away your money for free, then why do you give away your time — giving it away to  people you don’t like. Working a 9–5  job that you hate  but never making efforts to get out of it. Above all, not pursuing true joy and f...

A bit of simple advice that works for any age. Copy what millionaires do. I’ve studied over 40 millionaires and finally found out their secret to wealth. It took me a long time to piece together the puzzle, but I’ve finally figured it out. Here’s the golden question: What do Elon Musk, Warren Buffet, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Mark Cuban, and Tonny Robbins have in common? Besides the mulah...they all  read . Yep - reading. Don’t believe me? Let one of the most successful and admired entrepreneurs tell you... Musk built four multibillion-dollar companies by his mid-40s -- in four separate fields (energy, software, transportation and aerospace). How is that possible?  Because he reads. SpaceX co-founder, Jim Cantrell, mentions Elon Musk’s passion for reading, He'd been borrowing all my college textbooks on rocketry and propulsion. You know, whenever anybody asks Elon how he learned to build rockets, he says, 'I read books.' Well, it's true. [...

I will become an IAS officer. For that, I need the best books available in the market. I need to be enrolled in the best training institute. I need the advice of a few successful candidates. I need a separate room in my house. It must have a comfortable study table and an Airconditioner. I must have the fastest wi-fi and the best laptop to study. I must take a week's break and enjoy the fullest before I start my preparations. It's too late now I will plan for the “holiday” tomorrow. In the meanwhile, a poor auto driver's daughter was studying under street lamp from torn second-hand books at 3 am in the morning. Procrastination starts from- Putting conditions on a particular task. From the lack of urgency and non-compulsive nature of an activity. From the thought of having a perfect environment to do something. The wait for the perfect moment (which never comes) The thought of undervaluing the present moment. Fear of failures or facing complexit...

Let me walk you through a story before going to the point. He was furious. “You're getting old, Dad! Stop telling me to quit using social media,” my teenager told me. “There’s nothing wrong with social media, Dad!” he continued. “Everyone uses these devices… maybe you are the one with the problem,” he retorted. “Son, life is like a ladder. The higher you go, the easier your life will be — the lower you are on this ladder of value, the higher the odds you will struggle in the future.” That got his attention. “Ladder of value? What do you mean, Dad?” The same lesson I gave my son, will answer your question: do you have any advice for my early 20s life? “We all have the same twenty-four hours a day. No matter who you are, time makes NO distinctions. The ground is leveled. When we're young, we feel like time is infinite, but never underestimate your time. It’s your most precious resource of life.” “What does this have to do with my smartphone?” he asked. “E...

1.- STOP looking for shortcuts;  they don’t exist. I still haven’t found it yet. There’s no success in life without hard work. 2.- STOP dreaming;  start planning. Planning reveals the path from dream to reality. 3.- Stop waiting to get started;  today is the day. I’ve waited years for the perfect moment to come. It never does. Warning! Waiting is also an excuse. Excuses are endless. 4.- Stop waiting for situations to change;  YOU change them. I used to be trapped by a “ victim ” mentality, “Everything is against me. It’s so difficult!” True, it can get tough, but know that small, tiny steps of progress accumulate over time. 5.- Stop being a people pleaser;  it’s impossible to make everyone happy. Take a pause and ask yourself, “What it is that YOU want?” I said YOU, not your mom or your friends, YOU! 6.- Stop trying to fit in;  stand out. Be honest. If you have to change your dreams, values, and belief system to fit in somewhere, you’...

Intelligent people do not like to gossip, they like talking about idea and innovations. Hence, they cannot just be friends with everybody. Average people sometimes gossips, belittle and jealous a lot. Intelligent people are capable of having a conversation on different topics eg, Politics, world news, mathematics, just anything.They talk with facts and sometimes with exact dates. Average people just blah blah blah !!! They listen a lot and a lot, if you notice someone in a group sitting quietly at the corner, he or she is likely an intelligent person. They know the value of time, so they act on purpose and plan. They are prone to a migraine and other types of headaches because they worry a lot, they analyze intuitively. Intelligent people help other people grow in life, they are not afraid of you overtaking them. Their mission is entirely different. Intelligent people believe in continuous learning and self-development. Some of them might have some kind of boring life like not ...

Q:  “What daily habit has made your life simpler?” A: Not just one, but a few habits that made my life simpler: 1) I drink 24 oz (~0.71 liters) of water immediately after I get out of bed . It instantly turns on my brain and rejuvenates every cell of my body. It also makes me go to the bathroom and cleans me out. I like to be emptied out completely and be light on my feet when starting my day. 2)  Shortly afterward,  I drink another 16 oz (~0.5 liters) of my  homemade ginger/lemon tea   made with hot water, raw organic ginger peeled with a potato peeler and shredded with a cheese shredder, and 1/2 fresh lemon also shredded with a cheese shredder. I add some ground cinnamon powder and sometimes a little honey. I do pee like an elephant during the first couple of hours of the day. But that’s ok because I work from my home most mornings. I believe the water and tea are the main reasons why I have not gotten sick in many years. Better health means a sim...

90% of the people don’t save. Therefore 90% of the people are poor. Most people spend money to buy things they don’t need with money they don’t have. Saving is the habit of the rich. Spending is the habit of the poor. In order to switch from poverty to riches, one only needs to switch their poverty mindset with a rich one. Financial independence is simply a state of mind that attracts better money management habits. Financial independence is the ability to live for the rest of your mortal life without having to work for money. The poor work for money. The rich work for pleasure. Never work for money. Have money work for you. Never build a business. Build a system. Show me a poor man that can manage money and I’ll show you a fish that lived on land. The poor and the rich none had an advantage over the other. Both were born in the same neighborhood, played the same games, ate the same food, traveled in the same bus to school, went to the same school. Money is an effect - ...

1. Take shower everyday. Every day, and not just after some hard physical work. 2. Change your socks everyday. Yes, you got it right. Wear clean socks every morning. 3. Trim the hair in the nose and ears (if any). 4. Wear a clean shirt or jersey every day. I repeat, clean fresh shirt. Every day. 5. Apply antiperspirant on clean armpits. Yes, exactly, only on clean washed armpits. 6. Clean your shoes. A beautiful well fitted suit looks disgusting with dirty shoes. 7. White socks look appropriate only with joggers. Yes, not with shoes and not with black pants. 9. No socks with sandals, flip-flops, etc. 10. If you have a big belly - don’t wear tight-fitting shirts. 11. Don’t blow your nose and expectorate on the street in public. 12. Do not eat garlic before work. Have pity on the people. Please! 13. Watch the length of the pants. Neither too short nor too long. One fold in the front is the rule. 14. If you are going bald, accept it. Don’t hide the bald patch behi...

Get 8–9 hours of sleep every night. Don’t worry about waking up early. I spent almost 27 years in the military and had to wake up early almost every morning. I hated it. Since retiring, I now get up when I wake up. Eight hours of sleep works for me and I am always well rested. Your body, your rules. Get up when you are rested. Drink water. Lots of it. Be grateful. Forgive easily. Especially forgive yourself. Be kind. Especially be kind to yourself. Say “no”. And yes you can do that kind. Our time is limited. Use it wisely. Live below your means. Put a portion of your income away for a rainy day. Learn to like yourself. Learn to be alone. Read. Workout. Do some sort of activity every single day to get the blood flowing. Stretch every day. Breathe deeply. Don’t sweat the small stuff. Hold yourself and others to a higher standard. When others fail, see number 4. When you fail, see number 4. Create huge audacious dreams and then break them down into actionable units. Creat...

The nature of books has evolved. Society and technology have changed. Forcibly, our approach to reading has taken on new forms to accommodate a different way of life. The question is: For better or worse? Although books give us new ideas, spark discussions, and explore topics in detail, the same information can be delivered in a variety of formats. When it comes to exactly  how  we should absorbing books, the debate rages on. Let’s take a look. The Effectiveness of Speed Reading Since the 1950s, speed reading has been touted as an effective way to get through reading material quickly. Scientists, psychologists, and teachers have come up with methods to increase reading speed, whether through manual tools or visual movements. At the World Championship Speed Reading Competition, top contestants can reach 1,000 to 2,000 words per minute. Six-time champion Anne Jones reached 4,200 words per minute at one point. Those rates seem phenomenal compared to the  ...
