Maintaining a positive heart-set is important as well, such as expressing emotions through writing. Finally, working on one's soul-set daily through acts of kindness, prayer, and meditation is discussed. The document provides strategies for incorporating these four elements into a daily routine using the 20/20/20 formula of 20 minutes each for movement, reflection, and growth.
4. 4
In this world, we are too busy working on our mindsets.
We go to schools, colleagues, universities and even
read self-help books to make sure that we learn and
know more.
In life to be successful, productive and happier, we must
work on four elements.
The “mindset”.
The “health-set”.
The “heart-set”.
The “soul-set”.
Only these four elements can help us know more, stay
healthier, become successful and be joyful.
5. The Mindset
The mindset is not as easier as it seems. Yes, you can
build a good mindset through
o the books you read
o the people you meet
o the things you see
o the words you speak.
So, we have to be careful about where we live, where
we work, where we go and what we read. They all
contribute to shaping our mindset one or another way.

6. The Health-set
A healthy person has lower stress and a higher
productivity level.
Some of the well-known corporates encourage their
employees to go to a gym or at least work-out at home. If
you don’t have the time to go to a gym, at least take 7
mins out of your morning routine and do a work-out at
home. And don’t stop until you sweat.
It ignites your energy, dissolves your stress and expands
your joy.

7. The Heart-set
Humans are controlled by their hearts and emotions. If
we don’t work on this very element, we may end up
affecting all the other three elements.
One way to make sure you contribute to your heart-set is
that you write on a personal diary or you speak to
someone you trust or speak to God through prayer or
whichever mean.
As very well said by Sigmund Freud, “Unexpressed
emotions will never die. They are buried alive and they
will come forth later in uglier ways.”.

8. The Soul-set
There are people that are smart but ugly inside. You
immediately realize that their arrogance is above their
knowledge— they just don’t know how to get out of this
evil trap.
It is very important for human beings to work on their
souls on daily basis.
You contribute to having a perfect soul-set by making
donations, helping others, praying in the morning,
showing gratitude and doing meditation.

9. What is the 20/20/20 rule?
The 20/20/20 formula says you must wake up early in the
morning and divide your given one hour in the following
order
20 minutes move
20 minutes reflect
20 minutes grow.
9
11. Put the health-set and heart-set elements to the “move”
category
The soul-set to the “reflect” category
The mindset to the “grow” category.
During the first 20 minutes of day, start to work on your
health-set and heart-set by doing a 7-min workout, and
express your emotions on a piece of paper.
The second 20 minutes of your day to “reflect” and work
on your soul-set by meditating, reading the Quran and
doing the morning prayer.
And the last 20 minutes of your one-hour to grow by
reading a book, planning your day at work and writing an
article if possible.

13. “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone
else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma - which is living
with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the
noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.
And most important, have the courage to follow your
heart and intuition. They somehow already know what
you truly want to become.” -Steve Jobs

14. Maybe instinct really is much smarter than reason.

paradise soon.

Solitude- the kind that you access before the sun comes
up - is a force multiplier around your power, expertise

high-value activity at a time instead of relentlessly
multitasking - and do so in a quiet environment.
