Often life can get away on us. Us “human beings” always have such good intentions…then why is it that we have so much trouble carrying things through right until the end?

I believe that one of the most important things that you can do on your journey to a successful life is be consistent. Be consistent with everything that you REALLY want to achieve in life.

What the best way to learn a new language? Try and speak it as much as possible. If you spoke only 5 minutes every day, for 96 days in a row, would you improve? (more…)

How often do you celebrate success? I’m sure we all lead lives that revolve around putting in effort to achieve results, in some form or another. Usually people have a party when they get a promotion or for their birthday or some other occasion.

Why do we celebrate? Because we like to feel good about ourselves? (more…)

One very important lesson that I have learned is to just ask for whatever it is I am wanting. When I started out in sales it was the fear of rejection that stopped me from boldly asking for the sale when it got to that stage.
