FIVE MAJOR THINGS THAT CONFIDENT PEOPLE AVOIDS

FIVE MAJOR THINGS THAT CONFIDENT PEOPLE AVOIDS - rugged breed

We all know what confident people does because we see it everyday on winners, we saw them in televisions. Their behavior were almost identical to each other, they were relaxed, always at ease and it seems like they always know what to do. And of course they always nail it, we always see them winning and getting things done in fantastic ways. Because we already knew how confident people act and think I will tell you now the things that every confident people avoids, study it and apply it into your life so you will become confident too:

1. RUSHING - confident people were always cool even in pressure situations. They knew they can get away with any problem and they always felt that what they are doing is always right. They move smoothly and they always take calculated actions. They never worry about time because they knew they have enough time to get things done. It seems like they have their own world while operating something. They were cool as ice and pressure makes them even better. They feel alive during pressure situations, they thrive and they succeed. For them rushing is losing and relaxing is winning.

2. GETTING JEALOUS WITH THE SUCCESS OF OTHERS - confident people were never jealous with the success of others. They knew that they can become successful too. They were happy with the success of others. If someone they don't like is succeeding, they just ignore it and they will not pull him down. They even help others to become successful because success for them is to be shared and not something to be selfish of. They were very happy when their family, friends, siblings, co workers became successful and they really mean it. And when their enemies became successful they don't feel anything or say anything. If they can't be happy for someone's success they just keep quiet and never hate.

3. GOING OUTSIDE OF THEMSELVES - confident people were always in themselves. They appreciate their skills, achievements, properties and all of the people in their circle. They never look for others' lives and they never interfere with others' lives. They are simply happy with what they have. They never compare and prove others that they were the better people. They are open minded but it is hard to convince them about something that has no evidence.

4. OVERTHINKING - Confident people never hesitates when execution is needed to be done. They just do it, they never overthink because for them it is just a waste of time, they never over analyze because they were so focus on taking actions and finding solutions. They never get stuck, they have plans but once the plan is ironed they immediately jump into making actions and they live with the results. They were so quick to react and they always finish strong.

5. PASSING RESPONSIBILITY - They always take responsibility for their actions, they never blame anyone for their shortcomings, they admit their mistakes and they never make excuses. They swallow their pride if they made a mistake and ask for apology. They were never scared to get blamed because they were so confident that they can come back strong and make things right. They were also not afraid to take big responsibilities and finish it until the end. They were so confident that they can finish a task no matter how big it is.



YOUR BID IS YOUR PRICE

5 ADDICTIONS THAT YOU MUST AVOID TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE

5 ADDICTIONS THAT YOU MUST AVOID TO HAVE A BETTER LIFE

Anything that you abuse is not bad for your health and career, at first you think it is helping you because it is making you feel good but in the long run you will see that your life has been devastated because of your addiction. You should know if you are getting addicted to something and cut it right away before it comes to a level that you cannot stop anymore. Addiction destroys a lot of lives because everything that is excessive is not healthy. Not only the physical health is in jeopardy but also the mental health, you can get crazy if your addiction is worse.

I list here some of the addictions that you must avoid to have a better life, if you are suffering from one or more of these addictions you better wake up and cure yourself, it is not too late, it is difficult but it is possible:

1. Addiction in bed and pillow - Let's face it, bed and pillow gives us a warm feeling that is very addictive, it makes us very sleepy, comfortable and at peace. Maybe it is because bed and pillow makes us forget the stress in our work, the traffic, bills, deadlines, etc. But don't get caught by its tricks. Bed and pillows will make you forget your responsibility, it will baby you and make you forget time FOR A MOMENT. Then when reality sinks in... you will find yourself lost and doesn't know what to do next. It will only give you a temporary relaxation but the reality is it is not giving you any solution. It is only eating a lot of your time and making you stuck in a situation, the more you get addicted to bed and pillow the more you derail your progress. Pile of pending tasks will continue to grow and you will feel like you've been swallowed by a hallow and you can't find a way to get out.

2. Addiction in drugs, alcohol and smoking - This is self explanatory but I am reminding those people who were still denying that these things are dangerous. Those who were addicted with these things are still in self denial that at one point in their lives, they are going to get harmed. Once you get addicted with these things then you are done. You will become very dependent with these things and you will get crazy if you cannot taste them in one day. And by the record, only few people managed to changed their lives after being addicted with these stuffs. Death is the worse thing that may happen to you if you will not stop using these stuffs.

3. Addiction in thinking about the past - I don't know what is it with the past that people were so addicted. They think about their ex, their enemies, their failures, their nemesis and any other negative things from the past. They don't know that it is only draining their energy and making their focus blurry. Past cannot be changed, past cannot be eaten. If you will only use the the time you consume for remembering the past for other good things then you will have a much better life. Past is like a disease that will slowly kill you if you continuously give importance to it everyday. Forget about it and move on so your day will become very productive and you can live life at its best.

4. Addiction in other people - people loves other people that don't even love them back, they want to please people, look good to other people and make other people believe that they are something. What happens here is you live other's life and not yours. You give your strength to other people because you were so focus on them on not on your own life. Your actions were always based on other people's reactions. One good example is admiring celebrities, you were always watching your idol, spending a lot of time on his concerts, social media accounts etc. and then you forgot to pursue your own dream and maximize your own potential. You were so caught up on your idol's life that is why you forgot that you also have your own life and can also become great at something.

5. Addiction in appreciation - You always want other people to like you, you were so addicted to their facebook likes, fake comments etc. You are only showing what is likable in your life and you are not being you. You are so conservative in your actions because you were always thinking that they might not like you. You are not expressing your self anymore and you just want to impress people which is a bad thing. You can't reach your full potential if you can't express yourself. You are just playing safe because you don't want them to see you fail and being afraid to fail is already a failure. Your confidence is coming from their appreciation, if nobody appreciates you, you are not highly motivated to do great things. You should change your mindset now and avoid seeking for appreciation because some of the appreciation are fakes and does not come from the heart, you will only become depressed if one day you find out that nobody likes you anymore.

NEVER ASK FOR A DATE

never ask for a date - rugged breed

Nobody can tell exactly when will it happen. Sometimes even if you are so confident that it will happen, even if you are so prepared and one hundred percent sure that it will happen it still doesn't. I really don't know, but sometimes the universe looks like it is testing your endurance if you really want your dream or not. Sometimes it is making you give up even if you already paid your dues.

You work so hard, you grind your ass and you've given everything you've got but you still fail and fall short. And now you go back to your home and asking yourself and asking the universe when will it happen, you are asking for the exact date and that is a wrong thing to do. You must work until it happen and you shouldn't stop working if it didn't happen on the day that you are expecting it to happen.

Asking for the exact date of your rewards is a mortal sin. It will make you unmotivated if you didn't get your goal on the exact that you are expecting. You will feel like a failure and and is not capable or realizing your dreams. You will feel the lackness of the things that you want and you might stop pursuing your goals. You will drain your own energy and focus on complaining and whining for not receiving what you think you deserve. You will focus on the negative things, you will find someone or something to blame. You will make excuses that will not help you.

Never ask for a date and just do things that will make you nearer to your goals, the more you force things to happen the lesser the chance that it will happen. Big things come to those who know how to wait and take action. Asking for a date means you are just doing the things for the sake of being successful, you are not doing it because you love it. If there is no love in what you are doing then you can't do it for a long time, you will quit at any time if you wishes to.

You've got to have more patience if you really want it. You must be willing to repeat the whole process everyday or even add some more on it. Never ask for a date for receiving your reward because it will come on the right place and the right time. You don't need to worry if it will come or not, just stay committed and have faith on what you are doing. There is a reason why your dream is delayed, it may be you are not yet ready to handle it once you received it or maybe because your dream will be given to you bigger than what you expected. And one more thing...never count the days that you work hard, there are no exact days of working hard for your dreams to become a reality. Just continue working because one day you will be surprised...your dream is already in your hands.

IT IS TIME TO INTRODUCE YOUR NAME

IT IS TIME TO INTRODUCE YOUR NAME - rugged breed

Are you sick and tired of your name not being talked about? are you sick and tired of hearing other people's names but you think you are also deserving to be a part of the conversation? If you feel this way then it is time to introduce your name. When I say it is time to introduce your name don't expect that someone will do it for you, you will do it for yourself. You will be the one who will gather their attention and let yourself be known to the world. You will create a name for yourself that will be carved in the history books.

But how can you introduce your name? you can't just grab a megaphone and shout your name to the world, you can't just tell the world how good you are and expect that they will believe you. If you want some attention be an attention grabber. Show the world that you are the best in something, if not the best then someone who has a skill that cannot be ignored. You can have a name in sports, hollywood, arts, music or anything that you are passionate about but you need to amazed people and make them remember your name the moment they saw you performing.

It is time to introduce your name, outclass someone if you need to, don't be shy to show your skills. If you want to shine then shine bright like a diamond. You must own the stage, you must own the moment. The times for unexpressing yourself is over, it is time to break out from your rusty cage and be know to everyone. You've been watching someone shining, now it's your turn to be watched. Show them what you've got and bring your A+ game, don't exert a mediocre effort because you are not made out of it. Be a show stopper and stop someone's heartbeat. Be someone to talk about and whose always search by people, be someone whose people are so eager to see.

You have the right to introduce your name if you have a skill that is on a world class level. How can you have a world class level skill? by simply REPETITION. Just do what you are passionate about everyday and watch yourself becoming a phenom. Be patient, you will know in yourself if you are ready, you will feel it. You can't just show up to the world and displaying your swagger if you have an amateur skills. Be honest to yourself, you can feel it if your skill is already build up for any kind of competition. Some people exposed themselves too early that they don't have the necessary skills yet only to find themselves not ready and they go back to their home crying like a baby.

If you exposed yourself too early because your confidence is growing rapidly then live with it, if you fail and no one noticed you then don't stop, you already take the first step so continue doing the other ones. if your introduction is not effective then focus on your journey, not all introduction were beautiful but some have very good endings.

JUST FOCUS ON WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL AND LATER YOU CAN CONTROL THE SITUATION

JUST FOCUS ON WHAT YOU CAN CONTROL AND LATER YOU CAN CONTROL THE SITUATION - rugged breed

If you want to control everything or everyone around you in order to become successful then you will fail, that is guaranteed. That is why control freaks are freak, at first they are not yet so freak, they became wildly freak as they want to control more and more of what they see. They don't trust anything they just want to make sure that everything will go right and everything will be in their command.

If you want to thrive you should focus only on what you can control and never try to control what you can't because it will only make your life miserable. It will only make you worried and became a big fan of procrastination. You will build a lot of  "WHAT IF's" in your mind. What if it didn't work? what if I suck? what if he didn't deliver? what if something goes wrong? and endless what if's that will only make you insane. You cannot think properly, you will have sleepless nights and your goals will fail.

Just focus on what you can control, if you are a struggling athlete who is just recovering from an injury, all you can do is become healthier everyday, all you can do is recover the strength that was lost in your body. You cannot force everyone to believe that you are 100 percent healed, you cannot force the teams to hire you again, you cannot force every coach to believe in you again. Those things are out of your control, you cannot control what they perceived in you, you cannot control what they think of you. All you can do is become better everyday, take it one step at a time and climb your way back on top. You can only control yourself, your behavior and your attitude. You cannot control the outcome.

If you are struggling in making money just try to control what you can control either. If you are in a sales business never force people to buy your products or argue with them or make them involuntarily patronize your product, just focus on making a good sales presentation and if they didn't buy your products don't be angry just focus on dealing with other potential buyers or clients. Never hold a grudge on someone just because he didn't gave you a favor. Focus on improving your business strategy because that is all you can control. Anything that is not part of yourself shouldn't be controlled.

If you focus on what you can control and be better at it then you can control people and situation in the end because they will voluntarily follow you. They will see that you are in control of the situation and they will be willing to be controlled. The will feel that you are good in what you are doing, you are confident and you can carry them to success. You don't have to force everything to follow you, they will follow you if you are deserving. You don't have to worry because once you controlled your mind and attitude then everything else will fall in its designated place.

SO YOU GIVE UP JUST LIKE THAT?

So you give up JUST LIKE THAT? - rugged breed
You only try once and you've been devastated because you fail so badly and now you will give up just like that? Just because you've been embarrassed in front of hundreds of people doesn't mean you don't have the right to try again. Just because someone is picked before you and you didn't get the attention that you think you deserve then you already must give up. If someone criticized you and humiliate you doesn't mean you you need to stop and go the other way. Don't ever believe other people because they don't know your real potential and they don't know how hard you work. They only see your bad side, they cannot see the best in you because they were not open minded.

I know you are hurt and I know that your confidence goes down after failing but are you gonna give up just like that? Are you not going to prove that you are deserving for your dreams? Are you just going to waste the time you prepare for the challenge and forget everything? You will just give up because your ego has been hurt? Are you not going to stand up and prove them wrong? Are you not going to try again and do better next time? It is not the end of the world, you still have a chance you can still win.

All the blood, sweat and tears, are you just going to throw it all away and take all your sacrifices for granted? Even if you tried multiple times yet fail, you still don't have the right to give up. You've already come so far, you've already wasted a lot of time for your dreams so don't be afraid that you will be wasting another time again. You've already been wasted so there in nothing left for you to waste. You are already in pain so you can't be hurt anymore.

Don't give up just like that without giving another fight. It is always another, it is always trying one more time. Trying never ends because it is free, it has no limitations. Only bar exams has limitations, real life has no limits. So what if they laugh at you because you were trying so hard and not getting results? They can't do what you can do, they cannot try and fail a hundred times and try again. You have the guts to look stupid and unlearn those negative things that they throw upon you. You're a rock, you have a bulletproof mindset. No one can manipulate your mind, all you see is success. You don't care if you fail.

You can't give up even if you are suffering, you can't give up when you are in pain. Those are just emotions, it won't kill you, it will only make you stronger and smarter. The fight isn't over until you succeed. You have a lot of time but you can't waste another second. Get up and dust off yourself. Success is waiting, go and get it. Show them what you've got, devour any opportunity that is presented.

BELIEVE IN YOUR LOWS

BELIEVE IN YOUR LOWS - rugged breed

In life you can't be just winning forever or winning everyday. You can't be forever dominating your opponent or dominating the game. Sometimes you will hit the rock bottom, sometimes you will have your lowest low. What is working before is not working now anymore and you cannot even understand why it is happening. You are doing the same type of hardwork sometimes even harder, you are doing the same type of routine and applying the same type of habits but you still can't figure out how to make things work.

What you need to do is believe your lows, believe that the ugly things that are happening to you will change if you keep on doing what you are doing. Just keep on repeating what made you become successful before. Even if it seems that what you are doing isn't making any sense at all just do it anyway. Believe it even if it is diminishing your belief. Believe it even if you have no more reason to believe it.

There is no other way out but to keep on plodding and doing what you think is best for you and will bring you on top again. Believe in your techniques even if it is making you look like stupid, believe in your ideas even if it looks like it is not making you progress, believe in your instincts even if it is scary to believe it. It is just a matter of staying at the bottom and believing and trying again until you get back on top. It is ok being on the lower position again, there is nothing wrong with that. Accept that you are low but don't ever accept that it is your permanent position.

There were some companies, I mean really big companies that became so very successful but fail on the long run. What they do is they didn't change anything, they didn't compete, all they do is they still do what made them become successful, they do it despite of losing a lot of millions. They just weather the storm and wait until they become successful again. They never panic, they never change their mindset, they were still confident that they can regain their position. For them all they need to do is just give it a little more time and success will fall in their arms again.

If you are not winning right now, if you are not making any money right now or if your life really sucks right now just believe it. Believe that it is happening for a reason, believe that you are failing but don't ever believe that you have to stop. If the love for doing your thing is still there then don't ever change. Love your situation even if it is too low because we all start in low position, even if we already reach some certain level of success, once we fail we will start on being low again. Low level, low money, low life, low profile it is still good. They were all good. Keep moving, believe in your lows.

CASES WHERE YOU NEED TO RELY ON LUCK


Let's admit it, even if you are the hardest worker on the planet and you didn't believe on being lucky there are some cases that you still need a little luck. It is ok being lucky, there is nothing wrong with that. Luck is a word for hopeless people because they just wanted to become lucky and not work at all. But as the saying goes "the more you work hard the more you become lucky" is true. Here are some cases where you also need some luck:

1. You are not qualified for the job - You know in yourself that you are working hard, you know in yourself that you are doing the best you can to become qualified for the job but there are some companies that are really asking for very high standards and your resume doesn't fit their requirements. If you are caught in this kind of situation all you need to do is still push your job application and hope to become lucky. You never know if the company is really running out of employee and is in need of manpower immediately. They might hire you without looking very close at your resume. In this case you need to hope to become lucky because that is all you can do.

2. You have no portfolio to show - What if your client asks for a sample that is not included in your portfolio? or he is asking something that you haven't done before? what you need to do here is present something, just show him something you can show, it can be other's work or something you get from the internet and hope to get lucky that you might not get caught. Warning: just show something that you honestly know you can do even though you haven't done yet. If you know you can do it then why not show something you know you can do? I guess it is not bad to do it because at the end of the day you will still give him the work that he is expecting and you need to prove him that you can do it. Hope to get lucky if you don't have a legit portfolio because once a clients ask you to show something and you can't show something you are already busted.

3. When someone is better than you - Admit it or not you will know immediately if someone is better than you. You will feel if someone runs faster than you or dance more gracefully than you. You will be overwhelmed by their presence and you will feel powerless. This is a case where you really need to rely on luck. You know someone is more deserving than you but you still need to hope. There are thousands of cases where someone who is more deserving was not picked, you have to hope that you will be one of those cases. Don't feel guilty if you were pick before someone else who is deserving than you, just tell them that you just got lucky.

Even if you work hard and even if you don't believe luck there will be a time in your life where you need to believe in it, but it doesn't mean you will just purely rely on luck. And one more thing luck is attracted to the hardest worker in the world that is why lazy people never get lucky, so if you are a hadrworker you deserve to become lucky.

ACCIDENTAL LEARNING


Most people are making excuses why they don't know something or why can't they learn something that they want. They make excuses such as: they don't have the money to enroll for school, they don't have time for it, it is too hard and endless excuses that only helps them to become more ignorant.

Anyone can learn, even the dumbest person can learn, even the animals can learn. One type of learning that requires no money, no school and lesser hassle is PAYING ATTENTION. Pay attention to what is happening around you, be aware of the person talking in front of you. Paying attention is a type of learning that is not forced, it just comes to you like an accident.

When I was a kid I don't know how to tie the lace of my shoes. I accidentally learn it from my classmate. I saw her doing it, I watch attentively and then try it myself, I was so happy that I was able to emulate what she did. I learn just by watching her. She taught me accidentally and I thank her for that, I gave her a sandwich and thank her but she didn't know what I am being thankful about.

Last year I want to cook a pasta but I don't know how to do it with limited ingredients available. I throw away the idea of doing it because I might waste some pasta noodle. After one week while surfing at the you tube there is a video suggestion that shows up on how to cook pasta with limited ingredients. I am very happy because I already throw away the idea of doing it but somehow the universe gives me an idea without even searching for it. I just pay attention on what is going around in you tube then I saw a very good tutorial. I cook the pasta and then I love the taste.

You can learn from everywhere or from anyone if you just pay attention. Sometimes what you need to learn is just around you but you are not attentive so the information go away. Always be attentive the the motion of your surrounding and what is being talked about. If you really wanted to learn you should always be willing to welcome any information available around you.

IT'S OK IF YOU GO DOWN

The rise comes after the fall, it's ok if you go down, it's ok if you get nothing, it's o if you fail what matters is you're...
