Image via Wikipedia

For the past 2 years I have formed the habit of doing these things regularly. These things have helped formed new and healthy habits which has had a positive effect on our mind, bodies and spirits.  

When I started doing these things, I’ve been more confident in what I do. I’ve also managed to believe that I can still make money doing what I love without feeling guilty.

CHECK OUT MY 9 HEALTHY HABIT that has helped me feel good about myself:

Physical Activity - I have learnt to exercise everyday for the past 2 years even when I was pregnant.  Try not to think of it as a “workout session.” Instead, think of it as if you are taking a relaxing walk or a nice swim. The first step to overcoming the exercise stigma is to change how you perceive it.  

 TRY THIS:  Go for a 10mins walk around the block for 1 week

Meditation/Prayer – I love taking time to reflect on things happening in my life and business. It helps me clear my thoughts reduce stress and bring new clarity to the day-to-day challenges I face. When i feel good about what ’shappening around me. I have more clarity and I work edbetter with my clients and my clients gets more of me.

TRY THIS: Why don’t you try allocating about 30mins of quite time to you daily routine

Drink Hot Water - I always make sure I drink enough water each day,  that’s 7 cups of hot water everyday. Because I do this, I started noticing clear skin and this boost my confident a lot.  Now I put my best face forward when dealing with clients one-on-one or giving my presentation at a seminar.

TRY THIS: Have a bottle of water with you always. There is always space for water in my bag.

Reading – It is easy to forget that our brains need a little workout now and then.  Try finding time to read everyday. You may discover you have a love for literature or an interest in history or politics. I love reading a chapter of a new book before going to bed everyday. I have learnt to read 4 business books for every 1 novel. Business books – You know what I mean. Novels – because I need to expand my mind and much of what makes a successful business involves building character into once marketing and day-to-day operations. Novels provide me with the exceptional character building ideas…

TRY THIS: Get a nice funny or romantic book that you can just chill out on before going to be bed and put it by your bed side.

Think Positive!  Sometimes I find myself struggling with pessimism.  What I do it I try forcing myself to see at least one thing in a positive light everyday.  It doesn’t matter if the negative thing is a playground Mom who annoys you or your spouse’s sudden increase in hours. Just try and see the light through the tunnel.

Eat Good – Every morning I love to have a green smoothie- Spinach, pineapple, apple and some water. I must admit this might not interest everyone but lean to eat what’s good for your energy. You might try eating fruit in the mornings. You can start by eating 2 apples.  Eat it in the morning (with no other foods) or spread the apples out so you eat one an hour before each meal. Try it for a couple weeks and see for yourself how good you feel.

I Hired A Coach. Years ago, those in business didn’t quite get this. The best in sport still hire coaches to help them be the best in what they do.  

Coaches can see things you can’t – both good and bad. They can motivate you. They can hold you accountable to your actions and promises. And they can help make things more forward for you.

TRY THIS: Hire a coach that is making more money than you. I have worked with a phenomenal for the past 4 years and my business has taking a shift for the best. If you are interested, I have a small coaching program I run for a select group of people. It is not cheap but you will get great results.

Go To Workshops. Workshops can be a very powerful way for you to give your business a big boost. You can meet incredible entrepreneurs, and learn powerful techniques to grow your business that you may not have heard or not how to implement before. Before going to a any workshop is going to help you with your existing business, not distract you with another business “opportunity”. Learn as much as you can about marketing, advertising, and the mindset of the successful. These are things that are going to help you business take off.

Start or Join a Mastermind… Since have read the Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, I have joined a mastermind group. That one single book has created more millionaires than any other book in existence… you think there may be an idea or two for you in there? Damn rights! One of the best ones is the mastermind principle.

I belong to a group with 5 other driven entrepreneurs. We meet regularly weekly and discuss marketing breakthrough strategies we can use right away to help more out businesses forward. We also discuss business challenges, and ask for suggestions on what to do or who to talk to. Make sure the group you belong too, keeps the conversations positive and helpful. Try joining or creating a group with other industries, so you can expand your viewpoints and learn what other businesses are doing to grow their business.

TRY THIS: If you haven’t read Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, go get it! It is only €10 new, and you can probably find one at your local used book store.
