Passion & Purpose, Patience & Persistence

“Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.” Napoleon Hill

I believe it is okay to not be patient if the resource that is utilised doesn’t bring with it any greater value or benefit towards the life you wish to live. Learn to say no.

However, sometimes we have to tolerate waiting or practice patience even when things are not enjoyable or as we’d truly with to be doing. Suck it up but understand why.

As it comes to living the life you wish to life patience and persistence is often a must. A skill that will allow you to accomplish what you set out to achieve. How we do that? I share my thoughts in this episode @ The Hidden Why.

365: Leigh Martinuzzi – What is FLOW? The How and the Why!

“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them – that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.” Lao Tzu

In positive psychology, flow, also known as the zone, is the mental state of operation in which a person performing an activity is fully immersed in a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and enjoyment in the process of the activity. In essence, flow is characterized by complete absorption in what one does.

In this episode I was to share my thoughts on the benefits of flow, what is required to get there and how, and the challenges we might face. B Inspired! THY! (more…)

363: Book Reflections – Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

I first read this book in my early adult years. I think my parents purchased for me perhaps because they saw my obsession in money and creating riches. At that time the content struck me as new and very abstract. It was insightful and inspiring yet at times a little over my head. Life moved on and in most part so did the teachings of this book.

Think and Grow Rich is an all-time best seller and the principles it teaches about success in this book are in most part timeless. For those seeking riches in life this is a powerful read with practices that I believe will bring results if followed consistently and correctly. However, it is not only about money creation. I believe it can bring riches to all aspects of life. (more…)
