Get super productive using a Pomodoro timer technique

November 5, 2017 By Kris

Pomodoro technique and its power to improve productivity

Pomodoro technique is a very powerful tool to help you focus and get more tasks done.

Created by Francesco Cirillo, it is a time management technique that by breaking down tasks in 25 minutes increments, it aims to keep your mind fresh to maximize productivity during that short burst.

In between 25 minute focus times (called pomodoros) , you take a short 5 to 10 minute break. After four 25 minute “pomodoros”, you take a longer break 15-20 minutes.

My family have been using this technique for over a year now and it has been very helpful enhancing our focus and productivity.

It has been so helpful that we developed an app and a website.

It has a significant advantage over a regular physical timer in that you can adjust times for your pomodoros and breaks as well as have reports and stats to keep track of your progress.

Life Lessons: Martin Luther King Jr’s Amazing Life’s Blue print

March 15, 2017 By Kris

Powerful lesson in life from Martin Luther King Jr.

Martin Luther King, Jr in his speech to students at Barratt Junior High School in Philadelphia on October 26, 1967, where he delivered his speech “What Is Your Life’s Blueprint?”, he laid out three powerful principles of life that everyone should know and live by. His principles are timeless and should be shared far and wide. Below are his principles. Be inspired!

1. Deep belief in your dignity, your own worth and your own sombodiness.

Don’t allow anybody make you feel that you are nobody.
Always feel that you count.
Always feel that you have worth, and
Always feel that your life has ultimate significance

2. you must have as a basic principle, the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor.

Set out to fine what you will do in life.
Once you find out, set out to do it and do it well.

3. Commitment to the eternal principles of beauty, love and justice.

Don’t allow anybody to pull you so low as to make you hate them.
Don’t allow anybody to cause you to lose your self-respect to the point that you do not struggle for justice

Full speech and video below.

“I want to ask you a question, and that is: What is in your life’s blueprint? This is a most important and crucial period of your lives for what you do now and what you decide now at this age may well determine which way your life shall go. Whenever a building is constructed, you usually have an architect who draws a blueprint, and that blueprint serves as the pattern, as the guide, as the model for those who are to build the building, and a building is not well erected without a good, sound and solid blueprint.

Now each of you is in the process of building the structure of your lives, and the question is whether you have a proper, a solid and a sound blueprint. I want to suggest some of the things that should be in your life’s blueprint.

Number one in your life’s blueprint should be a deep belief in your own dignity, your own worth and your own somebodiness. Don’t allow anybody to make you feel that you are nobody. Always feel that you count. Always feel that you have worth, and always feel that your life has ultimate significance…

Secondly, in your life’s blueprint you must have as a basic principle the determination to achieve excellence in your various fields of endeavor. You’re going to be deciding as the days and the years unfold what you will do in life, what your life’s work will be. And once you discover what it will be, set out to do it, and to do it well.

And I say to you, my young friends, that doors are opening to each of you, doors of opportunity to each of you that were not open to your mothers and your fathers and the great challenge facing you is to be ready to enter these doors as they open.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, the great essayist, said, in a lecture back in 1871, that “If a man can write a better book or preach a better sermon or make a better mousetrap than his neighbor, even if he builds his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door.”

That hadn’t always been true, but it will become increasingly true, and so I would urge you to study hard, to burn the midnight oil; I would say to you, don’t drop out of school. I understand all the sociological reasons why we often drop out of school, but I urge you, in spite of your economic plight, in spite of the situation that you are forced to live so often with intolerable conditions, stay in school.

And when you discover what you are going to be in life, set out to do it as if God Almighty called you at this particular moment in history to do it…If it falls your lot to be a street sweeper, sweep streets like Michelangelo painted pictures, sweep streets like Beethoven composed music, sweep streets like Leontyne Price sings before the Metropolitan Opera. Sweep streets like Shakespeare wrote poetry. Sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will have to pause and say: Here lived a great street sweeper who swept well. If you can’t be a pine at the top of the hill, be a scrub in the valley. But be the best little scrub on the side of the hill. Be a bush if you can’t be a tree. If you can’t be a highway, just be a trail. If you can’t be the sun, be a star. For it isn’t by size that you win or you fail. Be the best of whatever you are…

And finally, in your life’s blueprint must be a commitment to the eternal principles of beauty, love and justice. Don’t allow anybody to pull you so low as to make you hate them. Don’t allow anybody to cause you to lose your self-respect to the point that you do not struggle for justice…Let us keep going toward the goal of self-hood, to the realization of the dream of brotherhood and toward the realization of the dream of understanding good will

..We must keep moving, we must keep going. If you can’t fly, run. If you can’t run, walk. If you can’t walk, crawl. But by all means, keep moving.”

13 Principles of Think and Grow Rich from Napoleon Hill

January 25, 2017 By Kris

Learn these principles to become successful

Along with How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie, Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill is required reading for my family. I even give the book to friends and family as gifts as the wisdom in it if used faithfully can be an amazing tool for success.

Napoleon Hill wrote the book with inspiration from Andrew Carnegie who at the time was the richest person in the world. He analyzed Carnegie and more than 500 self-made millionaires to come up with the formula for success.

Desire. – You start with that burning desire. That desire to achieve or want something. You visualize what you want in order to get it. More passionate about that thing you want, more you will be able to make it a reality. Wishing is passive will not get you there. Desire it and have a burning passion for it.

Faith. – Get your mindset straight. Believe that you will achieve it. If you have doubts in your mind, mentally remove the doubt. Have faith that you will achieve it.

Auto-suggestion. – Suggest and convince yourself that you will achieve your goal. Speak to yourself morning and night that you will achieve your goal. Be specific about the goal and as you say this over and over, more you will convince your subconsciousness that you will achieve it.

Specialized knowledge. -Be curious and always be in a learning mode. It is not necessarily about education but the continuous thirst to learn what is necessary to achieve your goal. Most successful people are voracious readers.

Imagination. Use your imagination. Ideas come out of your imagination. Once you have an idea, develop it. Hill says Coca-Cola came out of a single idea. Look what that single idea has created.

Organized planning. Now you have the idea and are visualizing it. Take action and plan to get you there. Put the plan into action and be persistent. Things might not work out initially but persistence and passion for what you are trying to approach will help you reach your goal.

Decision. Don’t overthink things and procrastinate. Being decisive is critical. Perhaps it might not be the right decision but you can make course corrections along the way.

Persistence. Failures and mistakes along the way are normal. Being persistent and the having the wherewithal to get through the tough period is critical. Napoleon Hill says “Riches do not respond to wishes. They respond only to definite plans, backed by definite desires, through constant persistence.”

Mastermind. Surround yourself with the best people and mentors who support and understand your vision. No one can go it alone.

The mystery of sex transmutation. Utilize the sexual desire and its powerful energy to transform it to enhance imagination, courage, willpower, persistence and creativity. Hill says, “Love, Romance, and Sex are all emotions capable of driving men to heights of super achievement. When combined, these three emotions many lift one to an altitude of genius.

The subconscious mind. Your mind will listen to whichever voice you talk to it. Keep your thoughts and self-talk positive so it will dominate your mind.

The brain. Always associate yourself with intelligent and positive people. Your brain picks up vibrations of thoughts from other people. Get a boost by being around people who make you better.

The sixth sense. When you have mastered the other 12 principles, Napoleon Hill says you will develop sort of a “spidey sense” or an intuition that alerts you do dangers and opportunities that are not apparent to most people.
