The Winning Edge TheoryWritten by Eric Plantenberg
Continued from page 1
If you took 10 minutes out of every day to plan (each day you have around 1000 waking minutes, so that is 1% of your day) you will save yourself hours of unproductive time each year. If you spent 10% less than you earn, you will never go into debt and be able to retire with financial freedom And those are just obvious examples. Tiny improvements in specific areas truly make a huge impact.So this month, identify one area, that if you improved, would result in massive positive change. Once you have recognized your winning edge, make it a priority to exploit that skill - read a book, take a class or make a plan to sharpen that one ability. By concentrating on your “winning edge,” immense positive change will take place in your life and you will avoid that disheartening feeling of being overwhelmed. Be Free!

In his New York Times bestseller, The Power of Now, Eckhart Tolle states that “80 to 90 percent of most people’s thinking is not only repetitive and useless, but because of its often negative nature, much of it is also harmful.” While that statement may seem harsh, for most people it is true. How often do most people sit back and calmly think about how wonderful their life is today or how great future is going to be? By removing harmful or useless thinking, it is naturally replaced with either a focused or open mind. This results in progress from one moment to next, which leads to remarkable growth and improvement over time. Being present mentally inserts more care, quality and joy into ALL activities and removes unnecessary concern. So take care to add extra focus to things that are right in front of you, things that are REAL, and many of your imagined challenges will begin to fade away.
