Way above alcohol or cigarettes or non-organic food! Lets get to the root… xxx

As an entrepreneur myself, it is hard at times. While it is much better than just being a nobody at a giant corporation (with the constant fear of layoffs), building something that makes money is extremely stressful. My philosophy has been to keep it small but profitable from day one and keeping outside investment to a minimum. Then, you are in much better control of your world.

So stay positive and keep pounding the pavements. No one knows the future, but one way or the other, you would have made the difference.

Something that helped has been reading zen habits blog. I realised I was too caught up in a made up identity of myself and needs to let that go. I am not a startup guy but many other things and if that doesn’t work out so be it.

Other things that help

1. Challenging myself with things I can control like exercise

2. Getting back into good habits

3. Not getting emotional and burnt out instead telling myself I need to make daily progress no matter how small.

4. Seek discomfort because that’s where the stuff that matters lies.

5. Think about performance throughout the day.

6. If I don’t succeed at this its not the end of the world. I am complicated not identified with one thing.

Anyway these are my focus points for 2014

Also less media startups or other

Good luck in 2014 check out zen habits if you haven’t already

I think you summarised it perfectly yet only scratched the surface. Why do we need to control everything? We obviously don’t control anything. Nothing more obvious than a parent’s attempt to control their children – which is an ingrained need of the parent, necessary for the child and not achievable in reality!

I’m jealous of those people who at least seem to just let life happen. The hippie for example. Most of our brains just aren’t wired that way. Are their’s really or are they just stoned all the time? ;) While I’m jealous at how they make life look so cruisey, I’d never be content only adding peace and free love to the world as noble as they are!

1. Embrace chaos. Know that there’s always going to be good days and bad, and the secret is to just keep going

2. If you’ve been around a while the chances are that you’ve been in quite a few stressful situations. I always like to think, ‘we’ll this seems bad, but it’s nowhere near as bad as that time…’

3. This may not be for everyone, but if you believe in a higher power, then it helps to think that everything will turn out exactly how it was meant to
