The value of your brand relies on the quality of the relationships you have.
The main relationships everyone has is with self, others and money.
Relationship with self Do you listen to your mind and body when they need rest? OR Do you continue on? Do you believe that working longer hours = more success? Do you feel guilty of not having done enough? The Law of Diminishing Returns applies also to human productivity and creativity.
The more hours spent at work the less performing you are.
Routine kills creativity - the main ingredient to great problem solving skills.
Stress is the inevitable result of ignoring our own needs.
Tensed muscles, weight problems, mood swings become recurrent.
How supportive is your network of relationships? What are the values do you all share together? What really matters is would your network think of you when they come up with an opportunity that would be of interest to you? Would they genuinely give you constructive feedback and advice for you to act upon? Can they be your support system in times of challenges? Relationships are mirrors of you.
Whatever faults you find in others are the same weaknesses that others see in you.
Whatever praise you give to others is also part of your strengths.
If we are structured and organised, we are not going to bond with artistic and creative persons unless we have something in common...
We feel comfortable with people like us - we attract what we are!
Without money, nobody can survive in this world unless a deliberate choice of spiritual enlightenment (such as Buddha) is made.
For some people, earning money is like an energy booster and spending money drains their energy.
Money takes control of their emotional and physical well being.
What's your relationship with money? Do you focus on the scarcity aspect or do you feel that your financial needs are always met? As magnets, focusing on the fact that we can't afford that dress or the latest gadget attracts more of the feelings that we can't afford what we want.
