You are the architect of your own destiny; you are the master of your own fate; you are behind the steering wheel of your life. ----Brian Tracy
Here's one very simple yet potentially lifechanging advice from Brian Tracy. Cut down on the TV at night by just one hour. Instead, use that hour to read books that could improve your life.
If you're in sales, google or browse amazon for what other people think are the best and most useful books on improving your sales. This, of course, applies to all fields, not just the workrelated ones. Maybe you want to improve your health, become a more energetic person with a better looking body. Or maybe you want to improve your productivity, your relations or perhaps do some general personal development.
One hour a day is not much. But if you read for one hour a day on weekdays that's about 260 hours a year. That's a lot of books and loads of useful advice.
If applied, who knows what great things and feelings could come into your life this year. Also, all that cool information and useful advice will start to open up your mind. You will start to see more possibilites in your everyday life. You might think something like this:
1. I really don't have the money.
Answer: Visit your local library or search their database if they got a website. Or look for used copies in places like amazon.com or some more local alternative if you're outside of the US.
2. I really don't have the time.
Answer: Buy the books as audiobooks and listen to them in the car while driving to and from work. Or transfer them to your mp3-player and listen while riding your bike/bus to work or school.
So start browsing for recommendations on books or ask your friends and collegues. And turn off the TV a little earlier and start reading today. Brian Tracy once said: "Our mind is the most valuable possession that we have. The quality of our lives is, and will be, a reflection of how well we develop, train, and utilize this precious gift."
