Even when things are hard. Actually, especially when things are difficult or hard to manage, because they inevitably will be, right?
Pay attention to guard the small, flickering flame.

If the chips are down or your streak of luck seems to have run out, here’s an easy trick to switch direction. Clean up your space! That’s it. CLEAN UP!
A messy, cluttered, or grimy space leaves no room for clarity or new things. It most likely reflects your mental space, too. So spend some time walking around your living space and find ‘stuff’ to give away, sell, recycle or just throw out. In that process, you are distracted from your current stress, and you open up new areas that will allow the light to shine in. You can shine a new light on your living space, your mental space, your career, and your life.
Try it. Get an accountability partner to help you on the follow through if need be. And hey, if it works get back to us and share the good news.

When thinking about your self-image what comes to mind? If you were a plant or a flower what condition would you be in?
Are you withered, in need of water, wilting on the vine? Or are you vibrant, strong, blossoming, or in full bloom?
Let’s assume you are able to visualize yourself as strong, healthy, and full of colorful flowers. Can you imagine the fragrance of your flowers fully enough to smell the sweet perfume?
Today is a good time to ‘plant’ a vital image.

If you’ve ever noticed yourself feeling inadequate or irrelevant, you might want to also notice if you are making a victim of yourself. Are you prone to finding yourself trying to live up to the achievements of superstars?
Comparing ourselves with high-profilers–those who have made themselves names in the media–is an exercise fraught with failure. By comparing ourselves to those who have made extraordinary progress, when asking ourselves “Have I made progress?” is self-sabotaging to say the least.
Give yourself a break, and compare yourself to your own historical self instead. “How am I doing now, as compared to how I was doing 1,2,3,5, or 10 years ago?” is a much better question.
