Remain Positive

Expand Your Comfort Zone

You know the one, where all is familiar and we are not 'challenged' by the prospect of exerting effort and facing change. The only way to enrich your life is by adding new experiences which will require you to make and accept changes. Do this willingly and embrace the prospects of any 'positive' change you can introduce into your life!

Stop Procrastinating

Fear of the unknown sets off a common reaction inside almost everybody and that is hesitancy. If something is unfamiliar to us it is only natural we may be a bit uncomfortable with it therefore we tend to put it off. In most cases nobody likes to be 'tested' which is exactly what unfamiliar situations tend to do to us. Learn to embrace the unknown especially if you have taken measures to prepare for it.

Competition is Good

Do not fear competition but instead welcome it since it will only serve to make you better! A competitive atmosphere is a learning atmosphere and we can not improve ourselves unless we increase our own knowledge base.
