Five Ways to Become More Awesome

"If you wanted someone to fail, would you tell them what they should do better and point out their flaws?" - Ryan Holiday, MasterClass 

"Learn every day." We move ahead or fall behind. 

Gratitude. Take the 21-day Gratitude Challenge. Write down three things you're thankful for each night and review after three weeks. After three weeks, you'll feel better and be grateful it's over. 

Positivity. Be positive. Nobody earns a positive life with a negative attitude. Everyone in our office reads The Positive Dog. A Native American proverb says that each of us has a positive dog and a negative one on each shoulder. Which wins? The one you feed. Feed the positive dog. 

Jar of Awesome. MVB 24 had many memorable and some signature moments. Create your 'jaw of awesome'. 

Commonplace book. An all-purpose resource to store knowledge, wisdom, and more. Who doesn't need that? 

"A commonplace book is a central resource or depository for ideas, quotes, anecdotes, observations and information you come across during your life and didactic pursuits. The purpose of the book is to record and organize these gems for later use in your life, in your business, in your writing, speaking or whatever it is that you do."

Highlight reel. Develop a five-minute mental "highlight reel" of moments from MVB and whatever else helps you.  

Lagniappe. Skill. Strategy. Physicality. Psychology.
