Personal Agenda


What is your personal agenda? Do you know? Your personal agenda is hidden deep inside your personality. I believe your personal agenda is developed by a mix of your personality and experiences you had in the past. With most everything there is good and bad, the trick is to find the bad and fix it. You need to make sure that you are thinking objectively when taking action instead of blindly following your personal agenda. If you follow your personal agenda all the time, be ready to go through some rough times. Just remember to think objectively about your goals and do not get in your own way!

A lot of the time we are completely unaware that our personal agenda may be holding us back from personal achievement. It definitely sounds kind of odd that we would subconsciously restrict ourselves from completing goals or doing things we like. The truth is we limit our own ability more than anyone else does. You should rise above the aspects of your personal agenda that do not serve you in a positive manner. Sometimes I think everyone is trapped inside their own body, cut off from people they meet, too afraid to show their true colors. This is something that I myself, am guilty of as well. I think that everyone should take a hard look at their personal agenda and see what does not work for them.

Do not remain chained to idealistic silly beliefs about what is possible and what is not. Do not squander your God given talent because you are afraid. Step into the aspects of your personality that benefit you and inspire those you meet.

Clarify yourself


Do you know how you truly feel about certain things going in your life? Do you know know if there are things going on in your life right now, that do not coincide with your values? Do you know if you are on the right path? Are you spending your time the way you want to? Life is so hectic, when was the last time you sat down and asked yourself some serious questions and answered honestly?Lots of times people just get off track. They lose sight of what their goals are because they get wrapped up in life. Which is so easy to do!

I recommend writing a question journal everyday. This journal is different, anytime you have a question, ask it. Try to ask questions that are challenging. Ask questions like: why I do not like my job, why do I feel bad physically, why I am upset, why I am not using all of my power as a person, why I am not using all the gifts I have been blessed with etc. Also, ask more specific questions like: why did I behave that way towards that person, or why did what that person said hurt my feelings. Whenever you ask a question, continue the line of questioning till you find out the real answer. Most importantly, answer honestly. I equate this to psycho-analyzing yourself. The best part about this is, you do not have to worry about what anyone thinks when you answer honestly!

Being present


There are so many things that we have to think about on a daily basis. Being present and in the moment can be difficult at times but we must do it. Thinking about the future or thinking about the past takes you away from the joy you can have in the present. The present is it's own universe just waiting for you to take advantage of it! How many times are you thinking about something else rather than seeing what is in front of you, right now? How many opportunities have you missed because you were not in the moment? Opportunities to: meet women or men, make new friends, make a business deal, create a new business contact etc. You have absolutely no control over the future or the past. Why not worry about something that you do have control over, the present.

Open your eyes to the present moment and see the beauty in it......Understand and see possibilities , see what you have been missing out on. If you are the type of person that lives in the future, STOP! I know thinking about the future can be very exciting but your performance suffers when you do. How affective can you be with your mind in the future and your body in the present?

If you are a glutton for punishment thinking about the past might be your guilty pleasure. Why subject yourself to mistakes you have already made? It just does not make any sense. Doing this affects your whole entire mood, your posture, your tone voice. Living in the moment is forgetting your mistakes and creating new possibilities.
