A week ago, someone asked me my views on tithing. After a decade of hearing from women who over-give and tithe themselves INTO poverty, my view may be different than she expected. I don't believe we can manipulate the universe into making us rich by donating as a vehicle to wealth creation. Life doesn't work that way. Here's my take on tithing: it's an individual choice. Give for giving's sake, that can look lots of ways. I'm a pushover for about a dozen charities, and typically spend LARGE amounts of money each year on stuff I believe in--animals, human rights, the environment, Cynthia Kersey's Unstoppable Foundation. NOT to get any abundance back... but because the pain of leaving things as they are is too great, when I could make a difference. I don't see this as tithing. I see it as an experience of abundance. And I love to give nice things to my local Jewish Council Thrift or Good Will. Clean clothes, furniture, housewares in good condition. Becau

Your ability to prioritize tasks is a measure of your overall competence. The better the plan you have, the easier it is for you to overcome procrastination and get started, to eat your frog and keep going. Leverage Your Organizational Skills One of your top goals at work should be for you to prioritize tasks by using your organizational skills to get the highest possible return on your investment of mental, emotional and physical energy. The good news is that every minute spent planning saves as many as ten minutes in execution. It only takes about ten or twelve minutes for you to prioritize tasks by planning out your day and create a to-do list. This small investment of time will save you at least two hours (100-120 minutes) in wasted time and diffused effort throughout the day. Create Your To-Do List Put your organizational skills to work and always work from a list. When something new comes up, add it to the list before you do it. By knowing how to prioritize tasks, you can incr

If you think our economy is out of the woods, think again. That’s what Tony Robbins’ friend and “rogue economist” Harry S. Dent, Jr., says in his new book, The Demographic Cliff, which predicts a major deflation that will weaken the economy over the next five years. In this bonus “lost chapter” of the book, […] The post Why China’s Bubble Is About to Burst appeared first on Tony Robbins Blog . via Tony Robbins Blog http://ift.tt/1bbp3na

"The Guest House" by Rumi, over 700 years ago... This being human is a guest house Every morning a new arrival. A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor. Welcome and entertain them all! Even if they are a crowd of sorrows, who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture, still treat each guest honorably. He may be clearing you out for some new delight. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing, and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide fro

As I was going through your notes I came across one statement that stopped me in my tracks: "I pray for this for me... a miracle." I want so much MORE for you than a miracle! I say this even though I'm the miracle lady. You're probably reading me right now because you heard or read about some of the incredible things that came about in my life or the lives of my clients. Miracles are a double edged sword: on on side you may get out of a jam, have a nice little reprieve from disaster, or get a really nice gift out of nowhere. The flip side is you aren't any more powerful or in control of your life when miracles come from the outside. Praying for a money miracle is like praying for continued helplessness. BE the miracle. Do what needs to be done. Anxiety moments are the GREATEST OPPORTUNITY to learn that new thing or make that inner shift that takes you to a whole new level of personal power. My favorite--and most lucrative--question to ask is, "Money, I
