Make Your Life Conducive To Your Dreams by Yumi Sakugawa

  • Surround yourself with people whose productivity, morals, life goals, passions, etc. are closely aligned with yours. Be careful with who you spend your time with; your closest friends and the people you spend the most time with are direct influencers of your general outlook on life. Be in close contact with hard-working, productive, passionate, caring people you will be constantly inspired, and their positive energy will always rub off on yours.
  • Don’t put all your eggs on one basket – be working on multiple projects. Don’t count on a single road to success to get to where you want in life. Maybe you are not a famous yoga-instructor/author quite yet, but you are still rocking at giving volunteer yoga sessions to senior citizens in your area, and your yoga blog is slowly gaining momentum. By being available to the universe in multiple areas, your positive influence on others will spread and take you far.
  • Get in the habit of asking. Ask, ask, ask for everything! Whether it’s for a lower rate on your cable bill, a better window view at a restaurant or for a raise in your day job, getting in the habit of asking will take you to higher places.
  • Work on your dream goals a little bit every single day, even if it’s only for five minutes. Want to write a novel? Work on it every single day, even if on some days it’s just one word or one sentence. Want to start your own business? Work on it every single day, even if on some days it’s just a five-minute phone call to somebody who might be your mentor. By having it a part of your daily routine, you will always be inching forward.

A quote to muse upon


Via Quote-Book

Develop a new habit
Restaurateur Yukakao Ichikawa owns a Japanese eatery called Wafu. Disheartened by all the food leftover by her patrons, she decided to implement some new rules for minimising waste.

In addition, Yukakao also asks that those ordering take-away meals bring their own tupperware. Loyal reader SuperForester Marie-Eve is already onboard with this idea and has begun bringing reusable containers when she’s ordering takeaway. She says: “If I still get that weird look, I just reply by a huge smile before going back home to enjoy my ‘greener’ meal.” I’m following Yakakao and Marie-Eve’s lead on this one.

Song to fall asleep to
This is Star, Star by The Frames (you’ll no doubt recognise Glen Hansard’s soothing yet heartbreaking voice).

Peace & sunshine,
April
