Southbourne Positive Living Group: 29 Positive-Thinking Tips from My 29 Years

It’s my birthday week. Yay!

I’m turning 29 on Friday, and man, am I gearing up for a stellar year! I can’t wait to tell you more about my plans as they’re coming to fruition quite quickly here.

Last year, I posted 28 Trainer-y Tips from My 28 Years, but this year I wanted to go in a different direction. Since Strong Inside Out is no longer strictly a fitness site, I want to incorporate more of what the last year has involved.

Today, I’m going to give you the best of the best positive-thinking tips from 29 years of implementing them all myself. I hope they help you as much as they’ve helped me in my life!

1. Breathe. No matter how tough the situation, breathing is the best way I’ve found to ground myself back in the present, and calm even the harshest emotions.

2. Take time for yourself. If I don’t get at least one day a week in silence, just to sit and recharge, I get super stressed out. I get anxious and even a little panicky. Even if you don’t feel this way when you spend time alone, it’s important not to spread yourself too thin. Choose the things that are most important to you and concentrate on those; give those things your all. It’s better to be fully committed to a few things, than half-assing your way through a lot.

3. Comparing yourself to others is wasted energy. You are unique. Comparing your being to others’ in beauty, brains, fitness, or anything else is a losing battle. You will never be like everyone else because you are not meant to be. Trying to be “normal” is a waste of the awesomeness that you are. Embrace those quirks that make you different and stop should-ing your life away!

4. Don’t be afraid to be excited!!! I’m an enthusiastic person. I get excited, I strike random poses, and I laugh loudly. When you enjoy life and allow yourself to show the happiness you feel when you’re feeling it, it becomes contagious. Your enthusiasm could brighten someone else’s day.

5. Reach out. Feeling down? Talk to someone. It helps so much. I don’t know what I’d do without my support system. If you feel guilty for reaching out for help, please know that your cheerleaders want you to feel better. They’re here for you because how you feel and who you are is important to them. If you don’t feel comfortable reaching out to them, talk to a professional who is qualified to help.

6. Keep your eyes on the prize. If you’re having a hard time achieving your goals, take a step back and remind yourself why you’re working so hard. It’s easy to lose sight of the big picture if our present is a struggle. Remembering that there is a light at the end of the tunnel–that this struggle is for a reason–can help get us through even the darkest times.

7. Don’t be afraid to give up a dream. Giving up my “dream” of acting was one of the best things I did on my journey to finding happiness. Sometimes, old dreams become nightmares, causing much negativity that can tear your life apart. Let go of your stubbornness and have the courage to look at the endless mud you’re trudging through from the outside. Is what you’re fighting for worth it?

8. Give yourself a break. You are not perfect. No one is. But that’s ok because perfect is quite boring if you ask me. :) Don’t be so hard on yourself for failures; realize that they help you grow stronger and move on.

9. Be ok with not being ok. Everyone has times of weakness. If you resist them, pretending like it’s not happening; it’s bound to get worse, festering away inside of you. Feel the pain and know that you’ll come out of it stronger.

10. Prove it to yourself. Nothing solidifies the belief that you can overcome anything like going through it. Those tough times are a chance to prove to yourself that you’re a fighter. Make each time after this easier to get through by showing yourself that you can now.

11. Get creative. I write. Others draw, play music, assemble collages, act, paint, knit, etc. Having a creative outlet is a great way to get all those pent-up emotions out of your system so that you have the space to become more positive.

12. Make a mantra. Mantras help me through so much of my day. I use them in workouts, in trying situations, and even in the ones where I just really want to do well. Mantras serve as highly personal reaffirmations to get you back on track when you start to veer off. My favorite? “I am strong enough.”

13. Keep score of your wins. When I have my clients keep food journals, I ask them to write down all the exercise they get in as well as their “opportunity meals,” because I want them to be able to look back and see how they’ve progressed. Keep a record of all your accomplishments so that, in those times you’re feeling stalled or like you’re back-tracking, you can look back and see your achievements on paper.

14. Be grateful. For what you have. For the potential to have what you don’t have. For the lessons you’ve learned. For the strength you’ve earned. For the life you have.

15. Eat clean, think clean. Whenever I eat like crap, I feel like crap. My head gets all muddy and I have trouble redirecting my thoughts in a positive direction. I’ll spare you all the chemical and hormonal details of why eating is directly linked to cognitive function, and I’ll just tell you that, well, it is. If you ingest over-sugared, processed, chemically crap, you’re going to have trouble focusing on the positive (or focusing altogether). Instead, aim for a diet of foods that are as close to the source (ground, tree, sky, ocean, etc) as possible.

16. Surround yourself with people you want to be like. You are the sum of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Make yourself awesome by hanging out amidst awesomeness! Supportive, encouraging, and loving friends and family will help you be a more positive person. With their help, you’ll surely become the person you want to be.

17. Cut the cads. If you’re hanging out with people who drain you, tear you down, or just don’t value your friendship, you’re being influenced by their behavior whether you like it or not. These people can drag you down and try their hardest to keep you from living the positive life you deserve… if you let them. Don’t let them. Fire them before you get dragged too far down the wrong hole.

18. Tell yourself you’re worth it… and believe it! Now, I’m not talking mirror work here. I’m talking just straight believing that you deserve happiness and positivity in your life. You are worthy of the life you want simply because you are here fighting for it. Never forget it.

19. Make a vision board (aka join Pinterest). I have been making vision boards for years! Not only are they fun to make, but looking at them is a surefire way to bring me up if I’m feeling down. Gather together a bunch of magazine pictures, words that inspire you, or even little souveniers (such as key chains, coins, or toys) and post them all together to illustrate how you want to live your life. Want an easier, more portable version? Join Pinterest! It’s an awesome resource for us and you can bring it with you everywhere! If you need some ideas, check out my boards by clicking here.

20. Commit to change. Change is hard. It gets uncomfortable at times because we are only comfortable with what we know. In order to achieve change, we must push ourselves outside our comfort zone. Know this going into it, and you’ll save yourself a lot of anguish.

Southbourne Positive Living Group (SPLG) meets on the last Wednesday of the month (excluding holidays).

Join a group of like- minded people and rediscover the purpose and meaning of your life.

Axia Consultants a (Service Level Agreement) Metrics

Tips for creating SLA metrics and measuring service performance

Build performance measurement into your SLA, when you set it up - consider the following points:

1. Identify the most important SLA outcomes first - and then determine clear metrics to track those outcomes.

2. Create a range of (say 10) simple metrics, such as targets, kpi’s (key performance indicators), that are easily understandable.

3. Ensure the metrics are relevant and match the key business needs of your SLA.

4. Clearly, the metrics should also be measurable/quantifiable and unambiguous.

5. Base your metrics on your specific SLA requirements and needs - rather than readily available data, existing reports, or generic SLA metrics applicable for such services.

6. Design the metrics to measure different performance problems that your SLA / service provider may have.

7. Metrics should be mutually exclusive and not duplicate each other. Each metric should focus on a different potential problem.

8. The metrics should be comprehensive enough, such that if your service provider fails to meet the required performance, at least one of the metrics will be triggered.

9. Review and test the metrics, to confirm they will pick up the undesirable problems.

10. Agree the metrics between both parties – service provider and customer

11. For each Service Level metric include:

·         a reference name

·         a description

·         measurement parameters eg data sources

·         calculation formula and frequency

·         a baseline performance

·         the required performance or target, from a service provider

·         remedies and penalties for poor or non-performance eg monetary credits

·         any specific exclusions/exceptions

Then:

12. Set up an automatic monitoring of the metrics, wherever possible.

13. Set up alerts for exception reporting.

14. Monitor performance (metrics) on a regular basis. Make it one of your regular daily or weekly tasks.

15. Raise any performance issues at your regular service review meetings.

16. Review metrics and when required amend them, to ensure they continue to be relevant to your service needs.

Mitsubishi's Existence at risk as fraud case widens

Mitsubishi Motors Corp

TOKYO -- For the second time in about a decade, Mitsubishi Motors Corp. faces a scandal that could affect the company's existence.

The Japanese automaker has improperly tested the fuel economy of its cars for the past quarter century, widening the scope of misconduct that executives initially said dated back to 2002.

The Mitsubishi board has formed a panel of three ex-prosecutors to investigate for about three months. Until then, customers, investors and minicar partner Nissan Motor Co. may be left waiting for information about the number of affected models and details of compensation.

"I'm taking this as a case that could affect our company's existence," President Tetsuro Aikawa told reporters during a press conference Tuesday. "My mission is to solve the issue."

On Tuesday, Mitsubishi shares plunged for a fifth day, slashing the company's market value by half during that span to about 427 billion yen ($3.8 billion).

The deepening crisis is the worst since the automaker covered up defective axles that led wheels to detach in fatal accidents, prompting multiple bailouts from Mitsubishi Group companies.

"Right now, understanding which cars and how many of them are at stake is the most important thing," Koji Endo, a Tokyo-based analyst with Advanced Research Japan, said. After two press conferences in the span of a week, investors are "still waiting for a proper report."

Mitsubishi hasn't decided how it will compensate customers, Aikawa said. The company is in discussions about reimbursing Nissan, which was supplied about three-quarters of the 625,000 minicars that were improperly tested and relied on manipulated data. Nissan has since voluntarily stopped sales of the Japan-only models, called Dayz and Dayz Roox.

Depending on how many more vehicles were improperly tested, the company "will get into a situation where its survival is difficult," Endo said.

Widening probes

Wrongdoing by the Japanese automaker and Volkswagen Group has prompted a reckoning of the ways carmakers test for and label the fuel economy and exhaust emissions of their vehicles. Government investigators last week raided French manufacturer PSA Group as part of broader checks into vehicle emissions, while Daimler initiated an internal probe into its certification process at the behest of the U.S. Department of Justice.

The EPA and the California Air Resources Board also announced an investigation of whether models sold in the U.S. meet fuel economy regulations.

The EPA has instructed Mitsubishi to provide additional information on vehicles sold in the U.S. and will direct the company to conduct additional testing, EPA spokeswoman Julia Valentine said in an emailed statement Tuesday in Washington.

Japan's transport ministry asked Mitsubishi to re-submit findings from its investigation of improper testing methods by May 11. An initial report that the company provided the regulator ahead of a Wednesday deadline was insufficient, a ministry official said Tuesday.

In addition to potential payouts to customers and Nissan, Mitsubishi may have to pay back government tax rebates that its minicars shouldn't have been eligible for, Ryugo Nakao, an executive vice president, has said.

Nissan decision

Nissan first uncovered fuel economy discrepancies when working on development for the next generation of the minicars. CEO Carlos Ghosn said Monday that Nissan will decide on the future of the partnership after further verification.

Mitsubishi had set stretch fuel economy goals for its engineers to achieve. Aikawa, 62, and other executives attended meetings where the company raised targets for the Nissan Dayz, Dayz Roox and Mitsubishi eK Wagon and eK Space minicars, Nakao said Tuesday.

"We aren't able to deal with customers," Aikawa told reporters Tuesday, adding that he wasn't aware of the improper testing. "We're just telling them that we'll offer something."
