 Top 9 lesson learned from book- The energy bus


Lesson #1 – “You’re the driver of your bus” – It’s all about personal responsibility.


We are each responsible for the direction of our lives. And the direction of our lives is shaped by each day, each thought. If we are complacent in our lives we let others drive for us. Have you ever felt out of control? Well, it’s time to take charge and drive your own bus. In my experience, the realization that my efforts now can reap big rewards in the future are very empowering.


Lesson#2 – “Desire, Vision, and Focus Move Your Bus in the Right Direction” –

You have to want it! You have to have a vision, have an compelling reason to keep you moving and the focus to keep to it. Each action must be in the direction of your goal and you must have the persistence to overcome the obstacles that can easily get you off track.


Lesson #3 – “Fuel Your Ride with Positive Energy” –


Positive energy is the fuel that allows you to overcome the obstacles. Positive energy is high octane fuel and negative energy is gas from the bottom of last years can. Positive energy builds momentum and a negative attitude seems to find roadblocks and excuses.


Lesson#4 – “Invite People on Your Bus and Share Your Vision for the Road Ahead” – 


Associating with people who push you forward is one of the smartest things you can do. You are either moving forward or moving back. If the people you work with or associate with are stagnant, then you need to break free. If you don’t you’re wearing an invisible rubber belt, eventually you will snap back to the pack and lose your momentum. Having negative, going nowhere friends is like having a weekly weight watchers meeting at The Country Buffet.

Can 10 Minutes of Meditation Make You More Creative? Whether you are trying to reconcile conflicting stakeholder priorities, finding a solution to a customer’s issue, or launching a new product line, your solution probably won’t come out of a textbook. But it’s hard to keep having great ideas day after day. What do you do when you run out of good ideas? How do you “get your mojo back”? One increasingly popular solution is mindfulness meditation. Google, Goldman Sachs, and Medtronic are among the many leading firms that have introduced meditation and other mindfulness practices to their employees. Executives at these and other companies say meditation is not only useful as a stress-reduction tool but can also enhance creativity, opening doors where once there seemed to be only a wall. To gain a deeper understanding of the effectiveness of short meditation sessions in boosting creativity, the authors looked first at the literature and then conducted their own experiments. They found that

 5 Lessons I Learned From The Book ‘As a Man Thinketh’ 1) You Become What You Think You are what you are right now because of the thoughts you once had or have. If you want to change yourself, you should first start with changing your thoughts. All the actions of man arise from the hidden seeds of thoughts. Just with the right choice and application of thought, man can ascend to divine perfection; while with wrong choice and application of thought, he can rise below the level of the beast. Good thoughts and results can never produce bad results; bad thoughts and actions can never produce good results.  2)Your Mind is Like a Garden The author creates an analogy of our mind with the garden.

You don't have to have all the answers to do a good job. If you're suffering from imposter syndrome or feel out of your depth, know you're not the only one crying in the bathroom at lunchtime. It's really just a case of who's putting on the best performance. 2) You Are Your Own Greatest Investment Whether it's some software, a gadget, a book or an online course, spending money on expanding your knowledge and skillset will never be wasted. 3) Assumption Is The Mother of All F*ckups Ask, clarify, ask again. Don't fall into the trap of nodding your head and pretending you've understood something when you haven't. It will come
