The human brain is a powerful thing. We can go from smoking hot in our attitudes and beliefs to ice cold in our pessimism and negativity. The body is a bit of a thermos as it can contain both ends of the spectrum and keep that extreme fueled for a long time. Let’s talk about how to find the existential hot in that bipolar equation and keep it that way! Ready?
Do I have a purpose?
A man or woman without some kind of purpose is a lost soul who will only continue to drift. You cannot be hot if you don’t have a reason gang.
Do I have goals and are they literally written down?
If you do not than I would highly recommend you going back to the basics and writing down your short-term (meaning a year or less) and long-term (2-5 years) goals and putting them on your fridge! You will see them everyday and it is a great reminder. We are human after all and in order to actually do most things we need to be constantly reminded. Your goals need to be a bit lofty if you want to explode.
Am I taking care of my body?
Be honest with yourself. Do you actually think about what an impact what you are doing to yourself now will have a few years down the road? Are you so lost that that is not even a concern anymore? I am all for living in the now and experiencing life but you can do that and still take care of yourself. So many people get so lost that they forget you can have tons of fun doing things without harming your body over and over. An ill body will never allow you to explode.
Am I really worried about being cool?
Ha…you laugh. It is amazing to me the amount of people that will not do certain things that will help them with health and wealth because it is not considered to be status qou. I am to this day still asked are you still doing that vitamin thingy by people that very well know that I am and that I am doing very well. I don’t even bother to respond these days as I am normally in a hurry to jet off in my Audi to an exotic place to go surfing for a few days and do a presentation for that little vitamin thingy which provides for such a life. A bit much you say of my comments. Well take it how you want. Being cool will keep you cool and broke. If that is what you want than by all means be cool. If you want to live a bit different maybe you should not worry so much about that status qou thingy ☺!
Do I do something every single day to make myself better?
So many people are filled with self-hatred. Every single person in the world needs some kind of self-help/self-development of some form daily. Many find it in praying or meditating. I tend to find it in some kind of positive book. What are you reading or doing every morning that will make you a better person? If the answer is nothing than I urge you to change that as it is pivotal to explosion! If you need some ideas shoot me a message and I will be happy to shoot some suggestions back at you.
Do I do enough to get by or am I a rain maker?
If you want to explode you have to do revenue rain making activities every single day. If you wake up and your goal is to make it through the day then this is either not for you or you need to find something else to do. You have to spend a few hours every single day on ideas and or actions that will generate something new and great in your life. If you are alphabetizing your products…or tweeting all day long about how great your company is then you are just fooling yourself. Do something that you know will produce income. You deserve to explode.
Do I live by the same rules I expect others to live by?
How can you expect to explode if you are not living a life with integrity! That is a question that everyone in this world has to ask themselves as we often find the answer is no. The solution is to start doing so right now. It is not too late grasshopper!
Am I doing something different than the herd?
If you want what society is offering right now than by all means do what everyone else is doing. If you want to be great…If you want to be incredible…If you want to be awesome then go against the herd. Heretics are celebrated these days…not killed. Dare to be one.
Do I still have dreams?
It is amazing to me how quickly people stop dreaming in society these days. If you no longer dream I don’t believe you can truly succeed. You have to have things to look forward to. You have to have purpose for try. I challenge you to go back to when you were a kid and look at what you wanted to be. Why are you not that? Why do you really believe you cannot travel the world? Why do you really believe you cannot drive a certain car? Why do you really believe you are not destined to give to any charity of your choice? Why did you stop believing? I would say it is because you stopped dreaming. The dream will get you past the obstacles but you have to hold on to it. It can be a reality if you so want it bad enough. Don’t let go of it. The dream is absolutely necessary for the explosion.
Ok…ok enough Anderson. My friend Gary Hasson says “we don’t need to be directed we need to be reminded.” It is such a true statement. Hopefully this serves as a reminder to you that you can explode in such a time of economic turmoil. There are people achieving great things right now. I would bet that they ask themselves these questions in some form every day.
As you know I am a fan of the human spirit. There is nothing better for me to see right now than seeing someone rise above all of this CRAP that the world wants to lay around in right now. It shows me how powerful the human will and determination is. It also shows me that it is possible. You have no excuse for not exploding right now. Go for it. I believe in you.
A few things I like: I went to a Rugby game last week and remembered why I quit playing 5 years ago. Turns out I am a bit of a wuss now. Hitting someone head on that is 6’5 and 300lbs is no longer appealing to me. Thinking of taking up golf ☺! After all, I need to take care of my body!
The Agel Cares Foundation: I do not promote my company in my blogs, but I will promote our charity. If you are indeed looking for a wonderful charity to give to, as I think we all should give to one a bit every month, let me know. It is an amazing organization and always welcomes donations that go SOLELY to the charity to make such great things happen.
