A Hobby As A Release Written by Josh Hinds If you haven't done so already I highly recommend looking for something you enjoy doing. Then start spending a little time each week working on it. I'd like to point out that it doesn't have to necessarily be a monumental undertaking. Nor does it have to be something you plan to make a living doing (Although many a person has found that it leads to this). Perhaps it is something like starting a little part time business. Maybe it's deciding to take up wood working. The point is that you find something you can find pure enjoyment in. You say you don't have extra time? Hey, who does? The key here my friend is that you've got to make time for such activities. Overcoming Obstacles On Your Path To Success Written by Noel Peebles Every great athlete, businessperson, or great individual had to stretch and reach for his or her goals. They know that obstacles are a part of goal achievement process and so they focus on succeeding rather than on what may be keeping them from succeeding. It means overcoming hardships and setbacks, rather than giving up at first sign of opposition or misfortune. To do this you have got to be willing to take some calculated risks and be prepared to fall down from time to time. As kids we made mistakes all time, that's how we learnt. However, as adults we have a thing called "pride" and we hate making mistakes. Think of when you first learnt to ride a bike - you fell down, you got up, you fell down, you got up, and you kept getting up until you mastered it. You didn't give up. If one way didn't work you tried another way until you finally got hang of it. Cont'd on page 2 ==>   ImproveHomeLife.com © 2005 Terms of Use
