changes!

Too busy, too rushed or simply too stressed to even think about how you could go about adding a positive spin to your life? Trust me, I know. It all takes so much time: read a book, make a list, talk to this person, etc. If you do have the time, do you have the energy and determination?

It's tough. Sometimes, too tough.

As I tried to clear my head during a walk recently, something occurred to me. Things often change due to short bursts of action that last 30 seconds or less. Think about it, think of how potent and life changing a mere thirty seconds could be.

Experience Your Life Differently
The more I thought about it, I began to really notice and feel how long thirty seconds was. Try it. Do nothing but focus only on your breath (nothing else) for a whole thirty seconds. You'll soon realize that thirty seconds is indeed a reasonable and worthy amount of time that can be used purposefully. Begin to explore all the things you can do with such a seemingly small moment of time. Wisely use it to make small contributions towards fueling new habits and stopping wasteful ones. Imagine, gradually, thirty seconds, by thirty seconds, you will be able to experience your life differently without really even trying.

Grow Your 30 Second Muscle
All, you need to do is hold your focus on a something positive for a whole thirty seconds (without getting distracted), and follow through with thirty seconds of positive action. Voila! In under a minute you've made a positive and valuable change to the flow of your life.

I'm sure you can find thirty seconds somewhere in your day, or better still, once every hour to make small, yet frequent positive changes to your life.

Here are some ideas.; take them or leave them. The point is that major change doesn't always have to take major effort or major amounts of time.

1. Start a 30 second savings habit
All it takes is 30 seconds to grab some cash and deposit a coin or note into your daily savings jar in the kitchen. I have a little pink pig which I feed happily each day in under 30 seconds.


2. Lose the frown
All it takes is less than 30 seconds to turn a frown into a smile. A smile literally relaxes hundreds of muscles and releases pockets of stress and tension held in your face. Feel your face now for any unnecessary squinting, frowning, or tight muscles.

3. Start a 30 second clutter clearing session
Walk to a cluttered draw/cupboard and spend a huge thirty seconds grabbing one thing that you no longer need and throw it out. No fuss and no stress. Allow thirty seconds each day to clear at least one thing from your chosen draw/cupboard. The beauty of 30 seconds is that you haven't got any time to have a discussion or argument with yourself. If in doubt, throw it out.
4. Take a chill pill
How often do you hold your breath and suck in the stress. Spend longer on your exhale to support your body in releasing built up stress and tension. Ten seconds on the inhale and twenty seconds on the exhale is a good formula for inviting space into your body and creating distance between you and your worries.

5. Get unstuck
Always keep a copy of your favorite inspirational book close by. Open randomly and read a few paragraphs to bring insight, to your current situation. I often pick up a book when my mind is going around in circles to regroup/refocus an unproductive mind.

6. Repeat a mantra
When confusion hits, step back, take a breather, and spend a valuable thirty seconds calming those erratic thoughts with a sanity saving mantra. My favorite "I trust" allows me to "let go" and relax into the situation.

7. The 30 second detox
Did you know that 70% of waste is eliminated via your lungs? Improve the efficiency of your lungs by breathing deeply into your lower abdomen. Place your hands on your belly and feel it rise and fall with each breath cycle. A thirty second detox every hour will do wonders for your health.

8. Stay hydrated
Your brain needs water to think clearly. It's the first place in the body to lose water. Get into the habit of sipping on water for thirty seconds every hour.

9. Do nothing for 30 seconds
Put some space between you and your hectic schedule. Treat yourself to regular 30 second breaks and give your body an opportunity to re-balance itself. Close your eyes, cup the palm of your hands over your ears and listen to the blissful sounds of the ocean playing inside your head.

10. Cancel a complaining thought
Each time you catch yourself complaining, spend thirty seconds focusing on the opposite and increase your ratio between helpful and unhelpful thoughts.

11. Take a 30 second exercise break
Stand up, roll your shoulders, stretch or try some wall push ups. Better still keep two cans of food beside your computer. When reading an article, grab a can in each hand and lift up to your shoulders and back down again, repeat as if lifting weights.

12. Adjust the speed of your day
Take some time out and notice if your mind is racing, your breathing shallow or your body feels rushed and uptight. Simply by taking thirty seconds to observe your body, you can slow down your thoughts, your breath and the speed of your day.You might even realize that your body is hungry, thirsty or simply needs some fresh air.

13. Turn off the TV
Value your time. All it takes is 30 seconds to get up off your seat and turn the TV off. Do something meaningful like talk to your family or connect to nature by talking a walk.

14. Eat mindfully
Take thirty seconds before you eat your meal to make sure you are settled, present and ready to smell, taste, eat and enjoy your food consciously. Breathe in "I am calm" Breathe out "I smile" Repeat five times.

What do you think? Can small decisions make major changes?

elite campaign

it's been almost a month since i wrote something here on my blog.i was so busy and at the same time pressured at my work.after my evolution days,we were distributed to our respective team.at shift clymene,there are 5 teams,2 are for the b2b (business to business)campaiign and 3 are for the consumers or basegrowth campaign.in the basegrowth campaign there are the team alvis(top team in the shift),team orkus and vesta.
i was so shocked when they announced that i will be part of team alvis,all of them are high-flyers(although 3 of the members were my batch mates in shaw)still i don't really feel that i deserved to be part of the team bec.I'm not a hard seller.i still keep wondering why i have to be in team alvis when there is rome and jho who were performing better than me.
1 week in the team i was struggling.i was so shy,i even isolated myself to the team.jeff was so nice to share to me all his best practices,there were times that he was so annoyed bec. i keep on going back to what i used to do but he made me realized that the evolution days were over and now is the time for me to shine.
after a couple of days of teaching me,jeff disappeared(OTP) now I'm going to continue what he was taught me,just the best practices not the bad one.*winks*
after a few weeks in team alvis,they had to transfer some agents to the elite campaign or what they called the rev gen campaign.i was one of the those people who was chosen to be the a pioneer team of the account.i cried to my shift mgr. shell and told her that i don't want to leave shift clymene.she made me realized that it's time to grow and they are transferring me to the elite campaign because of my stats and they need performing agents to the campaign.
until now,it's very difficult to understand why i have to be in the rev gen campaign and aside from that i belonged again to the top team which is the team fates.
i kept on thinking why they keep on putting me on the top team?
let's wait and see what will happen next to this rev gen campaign...
