What You'll Also Discover Inside...

Expect more from yourself than others. The good news - everyone believes in what you show. Nobody can read your thoughts to know your fears. The bad news - you can interpret every people's speech in a wrong way. Any weird reaction and you start worrying without any reason. Psychologists recommend listening to your "inner voice". Make this experiment: note down every thought while you are lacking of self-confidence. Every time you start worrying, do a two-minute break. Take the list and remind yourself how good you are. Show to your mind the material proof of your self-confidence.

Think positive. It's the oldest trick in the book. If you know how to control your mind, then things will be easier for you. Why? Because positive thinking might really do wonders. Aside from that, once you think positively, you will notice that you'll actually feel good about yourself, and that you will feel good about what's going on around you. And, even if things go wrong, you'd know that these are just challenges and that you can rise above them.

Appearance is everything. When you look good you feel good. Simple. If you are walking around looking like you just got out of a rubbish bin, you probably won't be too confident about yourself. We all know how you feel when you walk out of the hairdresser, you walk a bit taller, you walk with purpose. So look after yourself and dress your best and you will feel your best. You know your best features to show them off!

This book will help you improve emotional intelligence and self-confidence in both your work and personal life.  

Improving yourself takes time and effort. You have to be willing to make the changes and be committed to taking action rather than just reading about them.   

The next step is to put the things you have learned in action and begin to change your life.

Chapter 1 –  How to Dominate Your Day with Morning Routine

Have you ever seen the sun rise, opened your window and breathed in that stunning morning air, or even sat down for a while savoring your favorite brand of coffee down to the last drop without even carrying about anything? If not, mind you dear reader, these are just some of the simple things in life you surely missed out on.

Mornings are awesome and wonderful. Every morning speaks of a new beginning, of a new hope and of a new you. As you start to face reality, give yourself some alone time. Take some time off from all the stuff that keep you awake at night. Take time and enjoy a daily cup of happiness.

Happiness is not measured by how hard you laugh but by how happy your heart is. Happiness, thus, is an act of peace and an act of faith. Being able to appreciate even the smallest things in life is happiness itself.

So go see the sun rise, breath in that fresh morning air, or enjoy that cup of coffee. Whatever it is, it would surely be your own fresh cup of happiness.

Here are some simple things you should definitely try:

Say a Prayer

Prayer is the best way for starting your day right. When you start and end your day with a prayer, you will have a peaceful heart and a peaceful soul. Your prayer does not have to be lengthy and full of sugar coated phrases. Just pray to be thankful for another chance in life and to pray for strength to hold on through all the challenges you are currently facing and for all the challenges that are to come. Pray with a genuine heart and surely you will be heard!

Exercise

Once you’re finished improving your spirit, why not exercise your body? Exercising is one way of keeping your body healthy and in shape. Health experts believe that there are many benefits you can gain when you exercise. Here are some: You get energized and surely you’ll shake off that lazy feeling. You will have an improved joint performance and reduced threat of arthritis. You would surely decrease the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and other risky things that pop up. Those are just some of the things you would get when you work that body. So, start working that body and show the world what you have benefitted from exercising.

Don’t forget to Eat

Experts say that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so don’t ignore breakfast. It is important because it gains the energy you need to start your day and because it is linked to many health benefits. Also, eating breakfast helps you feel less tired and helps keep you focused on the tasks you need to accomplish within the day. You may be conscious about your body which is why you may be focused on dieting, but you still need to eat breakfast each morning.

Show that Smile 

As you say your prayers and be intimate with the Creator, why not try to smile? Aside from being grateful for another day, smiling to a new day actually helps you start your day with a positive vibe. It helps you feel good and ultimately makes you happy. It removes all that stress in you and replaces it with a secured morning. So smile but don’t just smile; show the world your biggest smile!

Go Crazy

One of the greatest ways to have that extra special cup of happiness is listening to your favorite song. Music helps relax your mind and helps you feel good about your day. It motivates you to be awesome and to be who you want to be. So turn the volume up, sing your heart out and shake that body to the beat of the music!

Simply You

Simple joys in life are worth more than the happiness you get from having fame and money. You may be rich and famous but somehow there would come a time that you won’t be happy anymore and all that fame and money would somehow cease to exist. Don’t miss out on all the things that make you happy. What matters most is how happy your heart is and how your happiness infects others.

Meditate

Meditation and exercise may have a lot in common but these two are really very different things. In exercising, you are rewarded by a lot of sweat and that fat burning sensation you would feel after rigorous physical activity, but with meditation, you will get that relaxing feeling and the calmness you’ve always desired.

Being able to have a daily drink of your own fresh cup of happiness in the morning surely makes you the happiest person that is awake. Add a dose of positivity and it will be a perfect mix for starting your day and having a good day ahead.

Chapter 2 - How to Find Your Passion

If you have already discovered your talent, then it's time to discover your passion in this world. Passion is a solid feeling of enthusiasm for something or about doing something. As opposed to talent, passion can be shared. Hence, individuals who have diverse talents can have the same passion. While those individuals who share the same passion, do not automatically have the same talents. An individual can be interested in his talent but also with other activities in his life. However, someone's talent can't be automatically his passion. If your passion is your talent, you will have more potential for achieving your goals. There would be less stress and hassle. Doing something that is already second nature for you and loving every minute of it would likely inspire you to have success than completing something difficult and uninspiring.

So what are the ways to discovering your passion in life?

Meditate. Passion is a big force. It is unseen when it is not propelling something forward, such as talent. Hence, passion can be more difficult to see than talent. You might have several inner talents such as writing, singing and running. One of these talents could be your passion in life.  It isn't easy to decipher our multitude of wishes and pursuits into passion or just short-term obsession. You need to think from your inner core. To be able to access your internal core, you need to meditate. Look for a place where you can be still and be at calmness with your surroundings. Dive down to your inner core to draw on your deepest and truest aspirations in life. Ask yourself these questions:

a. What's my objective in life?

b. What takes up the majority of my time?

c. What do I love doing?

d. If I will be given the chance to do one thing for the rest of my life, what would it be?

e. What would I do even if I don't get any payment or received anything for it in return?

f. What is it that I really do that animates me?

g. What makes me forget everything else except for what I am doing?

When you can answer these questions in all honesty then you would discover important hints that will help you define your passion in life. You need to really concentrate on your inner self, before you try to answer these questions. If you're touching this self, you would be able to perceive the situation more clearly and answer these questions without bias.

Make a list of what you want to experience. Before you start your list, you should think about things which you have imagined doing but never got around to. You may not have done such things because of some factors such as - you didn't have courage to do it; you do not have the money for it; your loved ones were against it; you were too afraid to fail hence you never even tried it or it was way beyond your comfort zone. To make this specific list though, you need to include all those things you have dreamed of doing without awareness of the factors that have hampered you from doing it in the past. Go over your list in case you might have missed out on something that had interests you in the past. Include everything you have imagined doing even though you think it's highly impractical, high-risk or vivid. Maybe it isn't really your passion but who knows? While doing it, you might suddenly discover your true passion in life, that something which ignites a raging fire in you.

Make an effort to experience at least five of those included in your list. At the soonest possible time, you should try to do at least ten of those that you've included in your list. Personally experiencing it'll give you a hint of what really interests you, what lights you up more than anything else. Passion is what makes a usually quiet person talk animatedly in regards to a particular subject; about his passion in life. You can never know what drives or excites you most if you haven’t done a lot of interesting things in your life. Have a firsthand experience of the possible things that would make your adrenalin going. Take a shot and who knows? You might realize just what it is that you would wish to do for the rest of your life.

Experiment with a new sport or take up a new hobby. You might not realize it yet because you haven’t tried doing it or taking it up, however your passion could be winter
