Human behavior

“We first make our habits, and then our habits make us”

John Dryden

We are a culmination of a whole bunch of habits and behaviors that are controlling our life. These can also be called programs that we have created from the moment of our birth, some say even while we are still in the womb, right up to our present-day life.

We are running these programs, on a subconscious level, in many cases outside the awareness of our conscious mind. These programs are controlling 95% of our results every single day of our life.

“Our environments shape us, choose wisely your surroundings and the people in it”

We just got married shortly after the inception of my steel construction company. It was a very exciting time in my life as I am growing, learning, expanding, creating a life and future for myself and my family. Our company was responsible for constructing 3 architectural buildings for the 2000 Olympics Games in Australia.

My partner and I were working long hours to get the foundation of our business established. We start early and finish late, usually with a meal and drinks, entertaining clients most…

Behavioral change

Have you ever experienced a work colleague, or partner for that matter, that burst into your office, highly emotionally charged, and you could see that something was wrong, they just had a fight or they were looking to have one? They catch you on the back foot with their angry-looking demeanor, arms swinging everywhere, with possible shouting and foul language been used.

We, humans, are very complex creatures and it's not always easy to navigate relationships, emotions, egos, etc when communicating with others. It can be extremely difficult in corporate life because we don’t have a real say as to whom we work with. …

I don’t like to be stuck at home for extended periods of time. Don’t get me wrong, I love my family and like to spend time with them but the thought of spending 24/7 with them for weeks on end frightened me.

I have my office set up exactly how I want it. My environment is very important for me to be able to function during working hours at optimum levels. …

Our feelings are an attracting force

Last night I found myself scrolling through my Instagram account and came across an interesting post that got my attention. This post had over 480+ comments and I was curious as to the nature of the comments. I started to scroll through and read many of them.

As I was reading through these comments it became very clear to me what many of these people wanted in their lives, that was obviously lacking, and they thought this was the solution to their problem or was it?

This post was in the format of a simple question, that went like this:

3 simple steps that everyone can follow.

What is a good life, what is a fulfilled life? If we were to ask this same question to 100 people, more than likely, we would get 100 different answers and they all would be right.

Here is what the Dalai Lama says about the purpose of life, which we can say would be in alignment with a good life, a fulfilled life.
