1. It is a life without decision-Purpose discovery aids decision making but where purposeless living is the order of the day, directionless living becomes the lifestyle because decision determines direction in life. What you decide is where you reside. One right decision of working on your purpose can reconfigure one’s life for progress but a man without purpose may not be able to take the right decision which would have usher him into the life of distinction.  2. It is a life without focus: Nothing gives a man focus in life like purpose but where he lacks purpose, he will definitely live without a focus. A man without a focus is an aimless man toss by the wind moving from one business to the other, changing profession as if changing clothes. Such a man will be without progress or achievements. When you don’t focus on your purpose, failure will focus you. 3. It leads to frustration: When a man does not have a purpose that is driving him, there will be no focus. Abs...

1- Physical junk – Anything that no longer has value for you. Old gadgets, toys, clothes that no longer fit you/ugly, worn out shoes, notebooks that aren’t worthy of archiving etc. Anything that you haven’t used in a while is probably useless junk. 2- Spiritual junk – Limiting beliefs, toxic beliefs, painful memories, grudges, and hatred. Basically, anything that is mentally holding you back should go away. Keep your past in your past. 3- Unproductive friends – If your friends aren’t winners, they are losers. Loser friends don’t provide any value, besides cheap entertainment. Most are afraid to leave their shitty friends behind because it means they will stay alone. 4- Abusive/Toxic Relationshipsdailyfamily.ng/ Are you still afraid to break up with your abusive fiancée? Are you still in touch with your ex? Do you live in an abusive house with toxic family members?  Leave them be, go on your own way Staying alone is a preferable alternative ...

  Below are eleven things you must do as a youth to be productive in life #1 Serve God:  This is the best time to serve your God. Serve him, and always allow Him to lead you in all your ways because He is the only that cannot mislead you. #2 Know Your Purpose:   One way to find your purpose is to ask yourself- what is that one activity or a group of activities that make you feel vibrant, vital and alive about your existence. #3 Be an Observer of life: We have the unique ‘power to observe our lives’ and decide to do more of what we want to do, and less of what we do not want to do. It is very important to discover our purpose, vision, mission in life if we want to get the most out of life and to realise our true potential during our lifetimes. #4 Have Big Goals in Life:  Have big goals for your life. Set goals for yourself in the area of health, wealth, relationships and service. #5 Inspire yourself everyday: Motivation is not a vaccination that y...

A leader’s job description can seem like an ever-growing list of bullet points, but the priority for CEOs, CFOs and staff managers alike is always the same: leading their team. The question is, “how?” As a chief operating officer, my goal has been to foster excellence at my company, N2 Publishing, which is home to a range of personalities, skills and temperaments. I searched long and hard for the key to effective team management, and it is simply this: inspiration. Employees will have challenging days. To get through them, they’ll need motivation, which leaders can supply by creating an inspirational environment, all day, every day.   Finding ways to do this is not the easiest task, but it’s the right choice, always. Here are six basic steps to start motivating your staff:  Employees will have challenging days. To get through them, they’ll need motivation, which leaders can supply by creating an inspirational environment,...

A little more bad news, first: It's quite possible these employees never will be motivated to do the job. On the other hand, there's some built-in exciting news, too: There might just be a way to re-engage your people with your mission. Here are five simple strategies to turn your unproductive employees into company superstars.  1. Clarify your definition of 'productive.' Do your employees even know what you consider productive? Let’s say they’ve been pushing out inventory to the tune of 10,000 widgets a month because that’s how it’s always been. You want them pushing out 20,000 per month. When was the last time you defined productive for them? Of all five strategies, this one’s the easiest fix. 2. Create competition. Creating a sense of competition among team members or departments is another simple strategy to increase productivity. Sometimes when you drive people through these means, their inner athletes come out. They increase perfo...

Unfortunately, this disconnect is not uncommon. A 2015 Saba survey of 1,000 HR professionals and 1,000 employees in the U.S. and the U.K. found that while 60 percent of HR leaders believe their companies provide clear career paths, only 36 percent of employees agree. To make matters worse, 41 percent of employee respondents said they would leave their current company for better career options. To keep that from happening, organizations need to take a new look at how they communicate opportunities to their employees. Here are four reasons employers and employees aren’t on the same page about career paths and how to fix the issue: 1. Career paths are not a discussion. In a 2015 SHRM survey of 600 employees, 83 percent of employees said career advancement was important or very important to them, but only 20 percent were very satisfied with how their company was addressing their ambitions. It’s easy for employers to have one idea of what employees want ...

Sleep Exercise Positive Thinking Sleep can be crucial since most of us live busy and oftentimes, very stressful lives. Add to that the allure of falling asleep to the artificial light of a smartphone or tablet, and it can feel nearly impossible to get some quality shut-eye. Exercise has the terrific benefit of flooding our mind with the feel-good chemicals endorphins. Plus, the more you exercise, the more you will build strength and energy. Finally, positive thinking can fuel your mental stamina and, as Tracy puts, is the "fuel for your mind." With positive thoughts, you will feel motivated to continue moving forward and overcome any negative obstacles in your way.   SOURCE:www.entrepreneur.com
