The 3 Secret Critical Success Factors to Your Successful Life: 1) Passion & Inspiration, 2) Learning, and 3) Environment
Presentation also has bonus Resources and Action Steps
This document provides 18 simple rules for living a successful life. It shares these rules in an easy to understand way for viewers. Comments on the rules are welcome from those who view them.
Emotional intelligence involves the ability to monitor one's own emotions and understand others' emotions to guide thinking and behavior. It has two main components - personal competence, which includes self-awareness and managing emotions, and social competence, which involves empathy and relationship management. Developing emotional intelligence is important as it determines success and happiness more than IQ. It is a journey that starts with understanding one's own feelings and recognizing that all feelings are tools that can be used to build a meaningful life.
Conventional morality differs between societies, with some allowing behaviors like women contradicting male relatives in public that others forbid. Critical morality argues that breaking the law could be considered moral in some cases, like stealing food to save a starving person. Moral philosophy has three branches: value theory concerning the good life; normative ethics regarding duties and virtues; and metaethics on the status of moral claims. Morality and religion are connected for some via divine command theory, but this poses problems as atheists don't believe in God and believers can question if conduct is right because God commands it or vice versa.
Successful people excel by taking positive actions in several key areas:
1) They maintain a positive outlook and encourage others.
2) They learn from mistakes but don't dwell on the past.
3) They prioritize self-care so they can better help others from a place of fulfillment.
4) They also set boundaries, contribute to their community, remain humble, and embrace new ideas.

Financial freedom is a goal that many people aspire to but few achieve, either because they don't know how or don't think it's possible. However, financial independence can be attained through a simple formula of earning more than you spend and investing the savings. There are obstacles that can hinder this process, such as debt, luxury spending, saving for its own sake without investment, vices, and "get-rich-quick" schemes. Wealth creation takes time and discipline to learn from each experience along the way.
This document discusses how limiting beliefs negatively impact people's lives in several ways:

3) Limiting beliefs restrict people's experiences and potential for growth, making their lives less fulfilling than they could be.
The document encourages readers to identify their own limiting beliefs so they can work to replace them with empowering beliefs that enable greater success.
Influence strategies for practitioners - Linda RisingAgileSparks
You’ve tried and tried to convince people of your position. You’ve laid out your logical arguments on impressive PowerPoint slides—but you are still not able to sway them. Cognitive scientists understand that the approach you are taking is rarely successful. Often you must speak to others’ subconscious motivators rather than their rational, analytic side. Linda Rising shares influence strategies that you can use to more effectively convince others to see things your way. These strategies take advantage of a number of hardwired traits: “liking”—we like people who are like us; “reciprocity”—we repay in kind; “social proof”—we follow the lead of others similar to us; “consistency”—we align ourselves with our previous commitments; “authority”—we defer to authority figures; and “scarcity”—we want more of something when there is less to be had. Learn how to build on these traits as a way of bringing others to your side. Use this valuable toolkit in addition to the logical left-brain techniques on which we depend.
This document discusses how limiting beliefs can negatively impact one's life. It explains that limiting beliefs likely have a greater negative effect than any other factor, as they cause people to avoid attempting goals they believe are doomed to fail. The document then provides examples of common limiting beliefs and how they can short-circuit the four step success process of deciding on a goal, taking action, adjusting the approach, and persisting until success. It urges readers to identify their own limiting beliefs in order to eliminate them and replace them with empowering beliefs that enable greater success.
The document discusses how society demands success and efficiency, which can take a toll on people's mental health and potentially lead to diseases. It argues that we live in a "sick society" where people are judged based on their looks, jobs, and other superficial factors rather than who they are. This constant pressure to meet social expectations and gain acceptance can disturb people's everyday lives and trigger mental and physical illnesses if their basic human need for recognition is not met. The document uses the example of unrealistic beauty standards imposed on women to show how hidden social messages can deeply impact individuals and influence them to change their appearance or pursue unnecessary things like cosmetic procedures in an attempt to gain acceptance.

1. SECTION 3 CHANGES IN EVERYDAY LIFE
HANDOUT 1
12 “RULES” OF LIFE
1. Take care of yourself before others Prioritization is important. You
can’t expect to take care of others before your own needs are met.
2. No one has a corner on knowledge, resources and wealth The idea
of “having it all” is perpetuated by the media and a myth. There’s always
someone who knows more about certain subjects, has better resources or
more wealth. Everyone is working on something and need help from others.
3. The Golden Rule Treat others the way you’d like to be treated.
4. No man is an island When in trouble, ask for help! No shame in asking
for it! Chances are there is someone who has been through your situation
before.
5. You can’t beat life It is unfair and has its own rules that are perpetually
changing.
6. There is always risk in life The best thing to do is to start with low risk
activities when achieving projects/goals. When you succeed with these, you
can take on greater risks.
7. Nothing’s perfect in life This is the adage that binds all human beings
together. Everybody makes mistakes. Learn from them!
8. All things are in a state of change Everything changes, yet they
remain the same (the wheel).
9. Very few laws and rules are Black & White There are many shades of
gray (speed limits). They too are subject to change.
10. We are not given maps to guide us through life We have to create
and follow our own path.
11. Most decisions we make are not life and death These decisions are
not set in stone and usually a matter of personal preference. Common sense
