It’s one thing to know what you believe, know what you value and know what’s important, but believers use trust, hope and resilience to manage the constant stream of doubt that potentially weakens their vision. Believers are aware of their current reality and they also use positive delusion to fuel belief until the evidence of success shows…

Being grateful is the first step to keeping what you want to keep in your life. If we focus on what we do have at the start of each day, it has an enormously positive impact on our day ahead. Remember, the trick is to begin each day spending a few minutes giving gratitude within minutes after…
