3 Tips to Jumpstart Your Entire Life Now
This week I decided to read “The Compound Effect” by Darren Hardy, this book is bursting with tips to help you lower your bills and raise your credit score and so much more.
I will be discussing:
1. Revamp Your Resume & Vision
2. Fix Your Life
3. Lucrative Success & Productivity
And be sure to read my last blog on “Book Review: 3 Ways To Be A Better Person” & “FREE Download: June 2019 Motivational Quote Desktop Wallpapers”.
If I could some up this book into one word it would have to be the word Transformation: a thorough or dramatic change in life or routine.
1. Revamp Your Resume & Vision
Start off by working on certifications and building your skills so you become the best candidate for the job. I just completed the Google Analytics for Beginners Certification, it was highly encouraged at my current job I now feel like a part of the club and having an understanding of what we do.
You can’t be great at everything all at the same time which is why you should focus on the skills that are most important and master those first. Especially the skills that no one else has mastered yet at your workplace which will allow you to stand out among your co-workers. Dress for success, change the design or delivery of your resume and develop a schedule for yourself to maintain the new you.
Lastly, develop a vision for your designated career path so that you can now if you are on the right path to becoming who you want to be in the working world. By having this vision you will be able to research and find the proper tools needed for your dream position. The last you want to do is waste time developing the wrong skills for the position or opportunity you truly want.
2. Fix Your Life
When you’re upset with how your life is going it is important that you get to the root of your feelings. And if you need to sit down with a friend or professional so that you can grow past it to live the life you want, just know that your feelings are valid.
This is easier to do when you are in a non-judgemental place or even taking 10-15 minutes in your day to write out how you feel. While your writing don’t read what you’ve written just focus on getting out your feelings and once you're done burn it. By doing this your problems won’t disappear but how you handle and the weight of them will change.
3. Lucrative Success & Productivity
Take a good look at your financial situation like what you owe and own so that you can have a better grasp on where your starting. Research side hustles to give yourself a financial boost, ease your self into a budget that you can manage and update frequently.
Reduce your spending and I was able to do this by using a spending tracker whenever I spent any money. Knowing that I would have to write the purchase later caused me to rethink making unnecessary purchases.
In order to jumpstart your finances you have to be willing to do things you’ve never done, and change may not be easy. But if your goal is important enough to you then you'll be willing to make it a reality.
