In my work and day life I must have passion for what I do. I see a lot of people missing that little extra, and their life is about surviving not living…
What if your life was a movie would you go and see it again and again? If not, consider what you can do to get the life you want?
Not everyday can be a party you say? Well you can’t just watch party movies can you…
Do this little excersise: If money, time and resources were not an obstacle, what would you spend your time?
If you had one year left to live, what would you do?
Learn from your answers. What should you spend more time in everyday life, the small adjustments you can make if you are not ready to go «all in».
And then ask yourself: How can I use these answers to create more passion in my everyday life?
I got very inspired when I got newsletter from Brendon Burchard, talking about his fathers rules of life. I sat down and started the process of my own rules of life.
Brendon Burchard is «One of the top motivation and marketing trainers in the world.» — says Larry King
Mr. Burchard is #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Millionaire Messenger and The Charge
And he is one of the Top 100 Most Followed Public Figures on Facebook
Her is Brendon Burchard telling about his own rules of life in this podcast.
Do you have life rules? I think it is a good way of telling your kids (the next generation)about life and how to live it. I will post Mr. Mel Burchard`s rules of life, to inspire you to write your own.
Good luck!
People who had used a mentor says that it was difficult to exact know what they want out of a mentor. One way is to try to find out what kind of experience and what you want to learn, once itś over. And during the first meeting things use to get clearer.
One of my own tip is to try to put together a plan for the next 3 month and for the next year, a sort of life plan. You can f.ex. read and listen to Michael Hyatt and what he means about the subject: Michael Hyatt
«With Creating Your Personal Life Plan, Michael Hyatt has fired A LASER BEAM OF FOCUS into a world of uncertainty. Finally, a brightly lit, well-marked pathway for the person who desires true and lasting success!”
Every year I put together my own life plan for that year, and maybe the most important thing is to also have balance. I can´t just put up there all I want in one specific area, but I have to use the whole “wheel of Life”.
“Wheel of Life” is a tool used in coaching and mentoring and is just to help you find balance in your life.
Balance is many things, but first and foremost its to generate profits in our lives and enable us to handle everything that comes our way. If I were in balance, I could be completely sure I immediately could feel it in myself and in my surroundings.
But what is balance?
-You are coming from a long workday, and sit in the armchair, perfectly flat and very tired – and when someone asks you a question, you snap back because you simply cannot relate to more now?
If so, I can tell you a secret: You are NOT in balance!
Balance is, very simply said to be present right where you are and know that you are exactly where you should be.
If you ask yourself this question: “If you had only one more year to live, what would you do”?
No one says they want to spend more time at the office or with the to-do list.
Most people say they want to spend more time with family and friends or travel more.
I try to prioritize “ME” first, to take charge in my own life. Only then can I be present for my family and friends.
My belief is that when I prioritize myself first, I am also more present for all those I love. What do you think for example that your loved ones would choose? To have a happy and balanced father, mother, girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, wife or friend, son, daughter etc. that are present and attentive and have chosen to be there! Or one that runs around confused like a hamster in a wheel, trying to satisfy everyone else and be ‘perfect’?
Here are two example of «Wheel of life» you can use for planning your life in balance.
Research says that 81% of us wants to write a book someday; I am one of them. I can cross this goal off of my bucket list in, my first was published in 2007 and I renew the design in 2009, my second book got first out in 2010 and was renewed in 2012.
I started with mentoring in 1999 and I saw very quickly that a kind of book was missing, well maybe not the book itself. But something to put down ideas and thoughts from meetings with the mentor or maybe in trainings.
In the beginning I used a binder but wanted it to be smaller, to fit in a bag or maybe a (a bit big) pocket. And in the end the book is 5.83 wide x 8.26 tall, the perfect size.
But on to what I have learned.
1. Know why the book is needed. Know the reason why you want to write and why the book is necessary. And, knowing ‘why’ will help you stay with it when it gets hard —and it will.
2. Self-publish or traditional publisher. No doubt that traditional publisher can help you with a lot of things, but they also have opinions on the book. In my experience my traditional publisher wanted to change a very important thing in the book, and I refused to do it. So therefore I decided to self-publish the book.
3. Research. Don´t get stuck in research, because it’s very easy to do so. I read over 30 books and ended up in circle, and nothing was new. There were 3-4 “truths” about mentoring and all the books was about one of them.
4. Writing process. I pictured myself sitting in a cozy coffee shop finding the perfect words, but find myself having glory days and not so glory
days. And especially because I self-publish no-one was hanging over me with a deadline.
5. Sales process. As an self-publisher you are on your own when it comes to sales, logistics and others. I found www.lulu.com very helpful and getting me to www.amazone.com and http://www.barnesandnoble.com And also they have different marketing pack so you can buy the advice you need to sell the book.
If you want to start with something a bit smaller project than a book, why don´t you start with a blog.
I use WordPress and I find it easy to use.
Good luck with your writing…

The new buzz word, at least in Norway, is reinvention. Use one week as an hell week and do things you normally don´t do, which I find very interesting. Many people does the same thing day after day, and some even expect different results.
As Albert Einstein said:
«Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again-and then expect different results.»
You can not keep doing exactly the same as you do every day, yet expect different results. You can not continue to perform the same routines in action, word and thought every day and expect to see changes in your life. Your life will change in the extent of your actions and thoughts change.
SO, if you feeling stuck? Or inspired? Today offers you the perfect opportunity to take stock of your life. One thing is certain… maintaining the status quo is not an option.
You can also compare it to your business and reinvention has resulted in some of the world’s greatest business success stories. Companies that launch with the intention to do one thing often end up finding their grand opportunity lies in a completely different direction. Taking advantage of the opportunity requires a reinvention of thought and strategy—and the effort pays off. For instance, as a startup, Flickr was an online game project and chat room…
Soon it will be new years eve and a perfect time to relax with the family and good friends and think about 2014. How can you get your best year ever, or maybe why won´t you have your best year ever. It´s your choice…
