Delayed Gratification

Hey guys, we're on a big topic today. This is going to change your life forever. How about that as a promise...=)

Today we're talking about delaying gratification. Most people heard the term but how many of us have really understand it deeply...

Let me share a story before we start the journey....

What happens when delayed Gratification goes wrong!

A 500 pound lady that tries to loss weight, went for a jog in the park. She jog and she jog until she sweats her shirts and her pants. 

Went home and tell her bacon and cheese, she ain't having it today. In her lunch time she had veges instead of meat and dinner she ate a little oatmeal and some bread. 

And as soon as she finished her routine she says, its time for reward, she talks to her ice-cream how tough her journey today and writes her diary with a bag of potato chips on her couch in front of her TV.  

Here's a brief understanding on Delayed Gratification

Delayed Gratification A.K.A Deferred or Postpone Gratification.

Our Ability to resist the temptation for an immediate reward.

Delayed gratification is art that all successful leader don't really talk about these days anymore,

I'm not sure about why is this topic not really emphasize but when i go to the book store to get a book of the topic they found me a book on delayed ejaculation?..hahaxD

That's why I've decided to teach it here.

I believes the reason why delayed gratification has not been emphasize in these days is because people find strategy learning to success more important that psychology needed to success but kept in mind that strategies may advance your career but it is always our psychology that gonna bring us through the journey. 

Lets skip all the chatting here and let me introduce you to 5 simple ideas to help you master the Art of Delayed Gratification now

Here's 5 ideas to help you Master Delayed Gratification;

It Requires a Long-term Goal.

Guess what they 500 pounds lady ended up. She'll kept repeating the same rut until she learns the lesson and sees whats wrong or worst she may never get out of the rut. 

In our journey to success, mastering this art allows us to take a leap instead of climbing the stair like most people that struggles. When we have a long-term goal we are more conscious of what are the desserts and which are the main course in the journey.

Doesn't Mean "HARD" all the time.

Seeing everything as a difficulty is only bad management of our mind. How hard is it to eat healthy when a bowl oatmeal cost you less than bacon and cheese. Easier to prepare and cleans up excessive waste in our body. 

The fact is we all didn't see that "It feels harder right after we receive our immediate reward". Ask anyone on the journey, and even yourself how many times have you not feel guilty after you accept the little reward and given on all your major goals.

 How many prayers do we have to submit from feeling tempted by devils trap in through out the journey. It all leads to whether have we practice the art of Delayed Gratification.

Don't Get Overwhelmed  ! 

STRESSED = DESSERTS, never lets it catch ya. Most people give up when things getting to all stressed up. When the result comes slow or the missed a series of episode of this and that on TV or hit down by a rejection. Save up appetite for the main course. 

Kept in mind that, God designed it to be like this so that we are prepared for the great things he sets in for us. Just like the lottery winners always lost all the money.

Everyone gets overwhelmed when they starts up the journey don't be surprise. Learn how to manage it instead. Don't be like the lady with the ice-cream. Be like the lady that you dreamed of.

Make Everything Simple

I'm not telling you to do simply do it. The best way to master the art of delayed gratification is to achieve your dreams task by task, Just like your on your road 600 KM to reach.

How are you going to arrange it? You stops every 100-200 KM. Don't take it at once, You will die. Even if you made it your car will die. HAHA..XD..funny but no joke... 

Most mediocre do the same thing so that they looked productive actually they are not. They try to learn and do everything at the same time and they end achieve nothing at all. Successful people only do very few task yet they manage to master everything in their journey.

Expect Much More Than What You Pay

Delayed Gratification also means expect much more than what you pay. Do not let yourself to fall for the little goodies until you receive what you deserve for in the journey. 

Ask yourself how many times have you regrets after you realize why you didn't strive hard in the past when you should have. Successful people are very good at seeing what their effort pays when mediocre will just settle when they get a hold or even lesser on the effort they pay. 

This is depressing because if you worth a million and settle down for 500 K you'll ended up losing the 500 K you deserve. And the worst part they falls into the pit of comfort zone and did not re-bounce until they spent every single penny.

Anxiety Management in the Journey of Success

Hey, guys hope you enjoy my last post. It has just break a new view record of mine...
Today I'm going to share on a topic that's more exciting.

Something that makes your butt heavy and sticky in the morning. The worries that we felt when we don't receive or pay check.

The nervous that haunts us down before facing our client and Uneasiness we had for not being able to achieve our goals. Anxiety! (HAHA..May sound Awkward but that's the truth.)

What is Anxiety?

Most people thinks or believes that anxiety is nothing but feeling tired but its actually not. Feeling tired is only what you get from anxiety. Anxiety is actually the feeling of uneasiness, worry and nervous of not being able to reach their goals yet.

Why do we need to manage our Anxiety?

One of the greatest threat in the journey to extraordinary is when we do not have enough energy to sustain your journey. In our journey to success no matter you are or what career you're in we all need energy in order for us to become enthusiastic and excited most of the time.

High level of energy not only allows us to sustain ourselves to explore in the unknown regions of our career it allows us to influence others to work with us through out the journey as well.

Destruction of Anxiety

Too bad that, a lot people happens to quit when they are hit by anxiety. Realize they can't pull strength to sustain their dreams leaving the game with buried regrets.

Imagine how many great dreams pop off like light bulbs every single second everyday day on earth just because people fail to pull up their strength to succeed in their journey.

How many great people that could make this world a better place to live by have we lose just because of anxiety. Great dreams just seems to be starting on an extinction. Someone must have an idea better than the iPhone we use these day. The car we drive.Or we might even move to another planet earlier.

How-to Manage our Anxiety

1. Have a Long-term goal
   
   While having a short-term goal will only give us more unease when we are not able to reach on time. Have a long-term goal that allows us to have the time we want to prepare ourselves for it. Kept in mind that it is not what we receive from achieving the goal but we become from achieving the goal.
2. Change the Quality of your food
   People these day have terrible quality of life. They woke up with a rush and feed themselves all the oily food and even fast food that are filled with chemical and cancerous substance. If you want to be successful change the quality of your life! Keep yourself away from all the harmful substances that destroys your organs. Eat organic.
3. Join a Healthy circle
   Nothing gives you more anxiety that listening to all those complains and worries from those mediocre. Change your circle today, look for people who encourage you to succeed instead of telling you to play safe.
4. List of Gratitude
   
   Number one powerful tool of successful people. Show gratitude! Nothing gives you more energy than expressing your gratitude on  things that happens in your life. Good or bad, it doesn't matter at all. If all things we're good what are there for us to learn. Have a list that you are thankful of.
5. Meditation
   
   Yogic activity is one of the greatest way to clear up your mind today! Put yourself in a peaceful state for at least 12-20 minutes a day. Meditation allow your brain to control your thoughts and impulses which allow more ideas to flow into your mind. Go for yoga classes or you might even learn it from YouTube these days thank to the internet.
6. Exercise
   
   My favorite of all time! Exercise! Make it the first thing to do right after you open your eyes in the morning. What I actually do is do 50 push ups ,jumping jacks, sit ups and squats right after i get up from bed. The heartbeat always gives me an instant smile in the morning instead of the zombie look most people has these days in the office.

Fight Poverty don’t Opt into it

Poverty is one of the biggest issues and also fear most people face today in our society. And most economists has concluded that poverty in today’s life is no longer the ones who have no food and shelter but had move to the mediocre who work a job and spent all their salary by the end of the money without any saving.

Almost like stumbling block for most people to block them from looking at the end of their career days. Poverty and fear are cousins both of them never existed in real facts but why have they taken so much credit in our career path?

How powerful is Poverty?

When you’re afraid of poverty you’re afraid of literally everything include trying new experience like eating healthy because you believe its going to cost you more (which actually don’t),you’re afraid of going out cost you’re worried of travelling fees (which leads you to depression), and you’ll start making history bills for excuse (which you starts to blame your spouse or your spouse things you shouldn't have spent on) and last of all you will went insane about everything that breaks the hearts of your love ones and lock down in your house alone scaring from depression.

What I want to tell you here is that fear and poverty are both nothing but bad management of our mind and its totally our choice to take charge and reclaim your agenda today and trust me whether you’re a politician, businessman or even a co-worker, poverty has and will always be in the way of success its whether you choose to embrace and chase it out of your life or keep letting it to haunt your life in the mystery dark path of your life.

Most people wouldn't even understand that the truth behind the story why they falls into poverty. Mostly because they are just too afraid of it that they don’t even dare to take the time to understands it. That allows poverty to take its advantage to hide in the shadow of fear and haunt the victim until they falls into the category. Misleading its victim towards wrong decisions instead chasing for their dreams and passion, poverty and fears stunts the act on of taking risk and play safe like a cowardly ostrich 

Many motivational speakers have proven the funny part of getting from poverty to riches is when they realize poverty is not the end of their life.

Take the example Anthony Robbins also known as Tony Robbins, one of the greatest motivational leader was told that when he was facing poverty in the rock bottom of his life bought a meal for a kid that dated his mother which the money he had and broke the chain with poverty from the act and sky rocket his career in his interview with Brendon Burchard for his new book MONEY: master the game.

All Tony did was just a touch and taste of poverty’s biggest fear…SPENDING UNSELFISHLY….
Of course you don’t need to go out and buy some kid and their mom with all your money like what Tony did.

You are always in responsible of your own life and everything you do in life is nothing but a reflection of your inner world. If you have a haunted inner world you shall live in a haunted world it is. If you’re in this situation of poverty all it takes is just a simple way to get out of it….
Face it like facing a fierce beast that wreaks your life face to face and fight it with your bare fist like a warrior that believes in their true strength….

Your actions are your fist, it determines how strong you hit the beast...

If you are a politician struggling go and ran the campaign that you fear of doing it for so long that haunts you even if you might got jailed just like Nelson Mandela. If you’re a worker that wants to starts your own business career life go and freaking starts a business today even you know you might fails and survive on cheap burritos. Or even you’re just a kid with an idea like Steve Jobs that has an idea that’s going to change the world when he starts Apple Inc.

5 Habits that Wreak Your Day and or even your Life

Humans are animals of habits. It is only when we decide to rehabilitate ourselves towards success that’s going to bring us success. Never the lottery or the perfection of live that most ignorance believes and awaits.

Here are 5 habits that mislead most people into misery and poverty;

• Focus too much on associating with common topic

If your dream is to become successful and extraordinary in your career, the number one thing you should stop right now is to disassociate yourself from common topics like the news, the traffic and political problems(except you’re a politician). Too much of these common topic may be easier for you to associate with the people around you which most people may say that’s what they need to talk about to get into the circle. Well they may be right, but all they’ll get into is a bunch of turkey circle where they “quable” the whole day and get a worm by the end of the day with other turkeys instead of hunting like an eagle and flourish on from their prey where they should be doing.

Practice a new way of communication where most successful people do. When most people stumble your ear political issues give your praise on what’s good instead even you need to pay tax but at least be happy that the currency is good. Even the news says the economy is bad but be glad that more people are looking for more business opportunity which is going to bring you more customer and partners in your business. Always remember that it is ours mind that is going to turn poverty into riches never the politics nor the economy of course they are all advantages we could leverage in the long run.

• Poison or distracted by media

Ever wonder why is it so much information pop up of nowhere of your brain that is completely not related when every time you’re focusing on important projects? Well here’s why, your brain is poisoned by the media that you see each day. Just like Kentucky pop up when you’re trying so hard to lost weight. Our eyes and ears are two of the most important sense of all because whatever we see or hear the information will be stored in the brain for use of long term. Take an example If u watch TV for 2 hours a day and seen 4 times of Kentucky advertisement a day you end up having Kentucky every week or even day depends on how much you’re influence. Good in good out, garbage in garbage out.

That doesn't mean you have to lock yourself away from the media. I think you’ll probably go crazy if you’re asked to leave it for just a day. Here’s an advice, be “choosy”. The reason why many people are easily infected by the media is because they are no consciously creating their world instead they let others to do it just like the Kentucky advertisement. Always keep in mind that “when you let others to create your life it will always be the size of your footstep”. Decide today to choose what’s going to be in your world; is it Kentucky or success? Is it poverty or rich? Make more choices and sooner or later you’ll see that living is a choice.

• Killer breakfast

Nothing wreaks your day easier than an unhealthy breakfast. It kills your brain cell it weakens your muscles and drives you insane. American or Malaysian or anything other country, there’s always bad breakfast. Bacon and cheese or Meaty and oily food or fast food or is it coconut rice with spicy chili or curry especially in Malaysia? If you want to be successful eat a healthy breakfast and take good care of yourself, yes now and if possible change your whole diet.

You are responsible for your life and the temple god blessed you.  Start your day and have a healthy bowl of salad instead or have some oatmeal or even eggs in the morning. Drink plenty of water instead of coffee and flush out all those toxic. If you really need caffeine make healthy from teas like green tea. Alkalize your body today and you’ll love your life for the next 30 to 50 years because of what you've decided to do today.

• Unlimited Snooze

We all know how to set alarm and some people sets 10 or even 50 alarms but yet they will have 10 and 50 of snooze. How insane is that to wake up 10 and 50 times just to wake up and re-snooze the alarm clock or your smart phones. Its going to makes you more tired than any other workout.

Practice today to wake up immediately! Right after you are conscious with the first sound of the alarm. If you really can’t pull your butt off here’s a great way roll yourself off the bed. Force yourself if it has to be done to stop snooze the alarm or even keep hearing the alarm until you’re so frustrated that you decide to wake up.

• Starting the day without a Warm Up

Most people are likely to endure those lazy ass and bones that are not awaken from last night’s rest. Take 30 minutes every morning to warm up yourself. Kick that lazy butt out of that chair and do some squat instead and pull those lazy bones to work. Do some Bur-pees or keep it easy just take a short walk around the house and get some sweat going before you took your bath every day. Be active to stay productive. You might even take it as an investment. Investment 30 minutes and you’ll get a whole day of endorphin that makes you happy and exciting.

Its Time for a Breakthrough

Its time for a breakthrough! First of all congratulation if you’re spending your time to read this blog which is going to accelerate your life for a breakthrough. A lot of people believe that in the economy these days we need a lot of money to make a change in our life or you've to look extraordinary.

Sadly they are right because what they believe what they'll get. But here's a good news for you, You can either decide to be like those crooked potato couch just sitting there and complain do something out of your life today that going to bring a breakthrough out of the old rut but first before you could decide what kind of life you deserve to be live I’m gonna tell you what I believe here;

1. God made us all beautiful, unique and magnificent.

2. As long you’re passionate to make a change in your life there’s always a way.

3. Believe in yourself that you could solve things out.

And these are the thinking’s that kept me alive and happy even in my toughest time of my life business or marriage and even parenthood (now).

Here are some things you could do today to bring your life forward even if you don’t have any money.

•  Get connected

Thanks to the modern technology we have which is the Internet we are now able to connect with the world anytime of the day through social network and media and what I meant by that is not browsing all day on the internet liking pages and gossiping comments for the next 5-6 hours and woke up unconsciously and say “what did I just done?”…. HAHA.


Many did that I Know and it used to happen to me too so please be aware. So let’s get back to the main point. So I think since we can connect to the social media and networks like facebook and twitter take it as an opportunity to increase your circle and get updated.


Seek new friends and see what people are doing lately and what the latest trend is. And I’ve found that to be pretty useful especially when you don’t have any friends around you and it’s kind of weird for you to walk out to the street and pick on someone to talk with. (You’ll get what I mean)..


And the best part is it solved the “What If I don’t get well with people?” fear that most people has in speaking public. Just 1-2 hours a day. And if you want to get ahead more you can even go face cam with your friends of that circle (provided that you already know the person and has been chatting for some time).


So go ahead to and spends 1-2 hours a day to increase your social circle and get yourself updated before talking to the right person.

•  Income source

Income source and why does it relate to your life?

Most people would argue that money doesn't buy you happiness. Well they’re right (50%), some time you do need money so sustain a breakthrough. But that’s not the point. The reason I didn't mention income or money instead of the word Income source is because I want you to understand that action is the things that going to give you joy money are just bonus throughout the journey for newbie’s who are trying to start their life as an adult especially.

Please don’t go and work a job just because you think and believe you’ll be much happier with the salary and time you spend on it instead of wandering around. That’s not true at all.

I remembered in my first job as a promoter in one of the local shoe store when I was 16-17 years old paid me for 1k bucks a month and It wasn’t really happier than the first business I involve in selling soap bar that only made 50 bucks…

And people used to think I’m not being logic but human are emotional animal. God made us feel our life not just to live by needs but wants at the same time.

A pay from a job is what I need but running a business is what I want. And I believe what will truly makes you success in life is by doing things that you want and love and yet turn it into a paying career.

That’s why you are responsible to determine what you want to do in your life this moment and make a career out of it even if it doesn’t pay well from the beginning.

• . Exercise

BAM!! (My favorite). Exercise! The most easy and accessible thing you could do anytime of the day. And the best part is its Free. All you need to do is get that lazy butt off that sticky chair and start exercise.

Either is just doing 50 push-ups or going for a jog. Do something that’s brings sweat and awaken the muscles from last night’s rest. If you want a breakthrough you're going to need to feel that Heart beat and be alive at every moment of the day.

We all know that nothing beats depression and anxiety better than sweats and a whole bunch of heart beats but we’re just aren't doing it.

The benefits of exercise have been proven for centuries against anxiety and depression.

Exercise in the morning allows you to have better metabolism and blood flow which allow your body to have higher oxygen levels in each and every cell that going to makes you energetic and happy throughout the entire day.

Almost all successful people do their morning exercise as a daily routine. All it takes is just 30 minute a day to enjoy a great dose of endorphin serve from your brain to make you feel happy for the entire day.

•  Have some time for yourself

Have some time for yourself today and adopt a new Hobby in your life that brings you forward. Do some yoga, meditate or read some books on your career.

Do something that increases your believe and self-worth.

Don’t spend time watching TV episodes, instead make it a substitute to go on youtube and look for something you could learn from yoga to workouts and even culinary like cooking and baking.

There has to be something you could learn from.( And the best part is its free…XD)

•  Pen and paper your life

Last of all, one of the greatest thing I’ve practice in life is to write down what I wanted in life to be every day. For most people instead of writing down what had already happen into the diary, try and do it in a different way by deciding what you want your life to be of today. Always remember that if you let others to create your life it will always be the size of your feet.(don’t let that happen)

Decide today that you’re going to create your own life. Psychology has proven that when you write things down it allows your brain to physicalize words into something that’s tangible which allows you to create it into your world by 2000% which is 20 times more possible.

And here’s how you do it, woke up every morning after you had your breakfast and morning exercise where you feel all charged up before your work sit down with pen and a piece of paper

and write down who you want to be today. If u need to go to work and doesn’t have any time for that then do it at night after your dinner take an hour or two and just novel what tomorrow going to be like for you. It’s your life so stop hesitating today and start creating your life.

Busting off the Degree Holder Myths

Today’s topic in ServeYourCareer we will discuss about does a degree really matter in your future career? Well this may have been facts for the past century to have a degree before going into any career but It had become a myth in the 20^th century since we can simply get any information from anywhere any time no matter where you are and learn whatever we needs to learn in any career that you ever dreamed of.

In this era we are living in a world where we no longer need to brings book instead with just a click on your smart devices we can reach numerous e-book and blogs like this on the web and even training and information videos on Youtube and Vimeo. Even attending classes and seminars by just sitting in front your computer without having all the trouble getting to drive or taking a public transport like always yet some are still doing it today.

Life has been so advance in this century is that we can actually become who we wanted to be no matter where we are or what’s our situation is just like any other successful people who started from zero to hero like bill gates and warren buffets or even easier since when they started in the past they don’t have any chances or opportunity like us to have excess to all these free and useful information. But why aren’t there as much people as successful and reach to the top of the success ladder as fast as or even faster than those already there.

Here are 5 reasons why:

1.       Comfortable shades of the past generation
Thanks to what our parents striving in past, life has been too comfortable for people today that they have completely lost human’s instinct to explore on life. That’s why we always finds Lawyers in a Lawyer’s family and Doctors in a Doctor’s family (funny thing about life most people believes it’s genetic..hahaxD). People forgets that in their gene there still exist other profession and literally all profession makes money in the new era even a blogger can makes 800k a month like Micheal Arrington and Pete Cashmore. Maybe you’ll think you’re just different but we all have one head, 2 arms and 2 legs and some had lesser like Nick Vuijicic one of the best motivation speakers. Why can’t we all share the same success? (Pause and Asked yourself)

2.       Thinking of education degree as main career Investment
Career choices we all heard from any average parents are either they sent their children for college or going for a decent average income job. Degree in every parent’s thought has an equation of high income whereas Dreams has always been an equation of waste of time. How sad it is our society has to turn down their child’s dream because of an advertisement on TV that says going to college for a promised future. “Quote me on this” (You’ll not sleep well thinking of this until you talk to your kids about their dream and I hope I’ve influenced you to do it).
*Note for parents; here’s the tricky part of our limiting believes…
Reverse your thoughts… If it’s for their career why you can’t believe in them and invested (the money you prepared for college education) in what they really desires to do in life?

3.       Wrong understanding of risk
Most people believes that for the money they invested in education firm will bring them a lifetime freedom or risk from being jobless so that after they had graduated they can get into a decent job but what they never realize is the changes of the new era where you could make money even without a degree. What worse could happen today is even if you have a degree you might not be as competitive as the other 100k new graduate every month or previous years that are still looking for jobs.  Could you simply imagine you would have built your own library if you’d use all those money for books of your industry instead of college?

4.       Cheated by education marketers
One thing you will only realize by now if you’re a lucky fresh graduate that had just get into a job is what you’ve spent time learning sleeplessly in college and all the assignment that you’ve done in order to have a better grade almost or literally 80% has nothing to do with your occupation especially in sales which is one of the easiest job available in the market today. If you recalculate your college fees today it will only worth 20% of the price you’re paying and most college would even ask architecture student to learn accounting subjects and culinary art students to learn business management studies in order to increase their fees (How realistic our world is).

5.       You forgot to look into the future you
We’ll all have to admit that none of us was conscious enough to look into our long-term self dreaming who we wanted to be instead we kill our time in the college thinking of the hot girl or guys (that’s gonna leave you anyway) next class having all the fun and comfort instead of what we could have if we could just be more conscious of who we wanted to be and what we could achieve in the next 2-5 years of life. Let’s say it took you 2 years to sell toothbrush and now you’re a successful toothbrush salesmen that makes 10k a month driving a decent car wouldn’t it be better for you to be in college still walking and reading only marketing text books? ( Don’t forget your fees)

I could have simply spent a whole day talking with you more than 100 facts and reason about this topic because I was too a college student struggling with a little pocket money and sometimes none and have to work on a part time job until I’ve met and associated with one of the greatest sales guru in my country. And of course there are still many people who are living quite a life after they graduated but what I wanted to emphasize is you don’t to be a degree or master holder for your dream you’ll just need to chase it that’s all. (Yes that’s all)
