The Miracle Morning: The Not-So-Obvious Secret Guaranteed to Transform Your Life: Before 8AM by Hal ElrodMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Ideja knjige mi se sviđa toliko da ću od sutra doslovno krenuti s uvođenjem Miracle morning navike, ali je knjiga dosta opširna za poprilično jednostavnu ideju. Ima previše ponavljanja i opisivanja situacija koje su jasne. Nije prevelika knjiga ali opet je veća nego što treba biti. Njegov stil pisanja nije nešto posebno ali ideja je odlična. Djeluje kao da je njegov uzor Jim Rohn, na dosta mjesta ga i citira, zbog toga postoji i dosta kvalitetnih ideja.
There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle.—ALBERT EINSTEIN
Life begins each morning.—JOEL OLSTEEN
Svi imamo ovaj problem da se brinemo ili ljutimo oko stvari na koje ne možemo utjecati.
"If there’s one thing that I’ve learned from my car accident, it’s that there is no point in dwelling on or feeling bad about the aspects of our lives that we can’t change."
"Focused, productive, successful mornings generate focused, productive, successful days—which inevitably create a successful life—in the same way that unfocused, unproductive, and mediocre mornings generate unfocused, unproductive, and mediocre days, and ultimately a mediocre quality of life."
"Time and time again practitioners of The Miracle Morning compare waking up every day to the feeling they had as a kid, waking up on Christmas morning. It feels that good! Imagine how great it will be to start every day like that."
"As pathetic as it may sound, what got me through each day was the peace of mind from knowing I could eventually crawl into bed and temporarily escape my problems."
"Your level of success, will rarely exceed your level of personal development, because success is something you attract by the person you become,"
"Our outer world will always be a reflection of our inner world."
"Until we dedicate time each day to developing ourselves into the person we need to be to create the life we want, success is always going to be a struggle to attain."
"if you want your life to be different, you have to be willing to do something different first!"
"One of the saddest things in life is to get to the end and look back in regret, knowing that you could have been, done, and had so much more."—ROBIN SHARMA
"We don’t want our lives to be a struggle. I want a life of freedom, where I get to wake up and do what I want, when I want, with whomever I want. I want to get out of bed every day and truly love my life. I want to love my work, and I want to love the people I get to share my life and work with. That’s my definition of success. That kind of life doesn’t just happen. It must be designed. If you want to live an extraordinary life as defined and designed by you, then you must identify the fundamental causes of mediocrity so you can prevent them from robbing you of the life you want."
"Always remember that where you are is a result of who you were, but where you go depends entirely on who you choose to be, from this moment on."
"Always remember that when you are committed to a life purpose that is bigger than your problems, your problems become relatively insignificant and you will overcome them with ease."
"As T. Harv Eker said in his best-selling book Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, “How you do anything is how you do everything.”"
"Realize that everything that we do affects who we’re becoming, which is determining the life that we will ultimately create and live."
"Wait—this is not who I want to become—someone who doesn’t even have enough discipline to get out of bed in the morning. I’m getting up now, because I am committed to __________ (waking up early, hitting my goals, creating the life of my dreams, etc.)"
"our levels of success will rarely exceed our level of personal development, because success is something we attract by who we become."
"The most extraordinary life you can imagine is available to you no matter what’s happened in your past; just waiting for you to develop yourself into the person you need to be to be able to easily attract, create, and live that life."
"Always remember that when we fail to make time for personal development, we are forced to make time for pain and struggle."
"Remember this truth: now matters more than any other time in your life, because it’s what you are doing today that is determining who you’re becoming, and who you’re becoming will always determine the quality and direction of your life."
"Your entire life changes the day that you decide you will no longer accept mediocrity for yourself."
"You’ve got to get up every morning with determination if you’re going to go to bed with satisfaction."—GEORGE LORIMER
"We hit the snooze button and resist the inevitable act of waking up, unaware that our resistance is sending a message to the universe that we’d rather lie there in our beds—unconscious—than consciously and actively live and create the lives we say that we want."
"According to the National Sleep Foundation, some research has found that long sleep durations (nine hours or more) are also associated with increased morbidity (illness, accidents) and even mortality (death.) This research also found that variables such as depression were significantly associated with long sleep."
“Geez, I only got six hours of sleep. I feel exhausted.” It’s a self-fulfilling, self-sabotaging prophecy."
"If you tell yourself you’re going to feel tired in the morning, then you are absolutely going to feel tired."
"If you really think about it, hitting the snooze button in the morning doesn’t even make sense. It’s like saying, ‘I hate getting up in the morning—so I do it over… and over… and over again.’—DEMETRIUS MARTIN
"It’s been said that nobody actually likes waking up early, but everyone loves the feeling of having woken up early."
"Success is something you attract by the person you become.—JIM ROHN"
"An extraordinary life is all about daily, continuous improvements in the areas that matter most.—ROBIN SHARMA
"Your life is made up of the Physical, Intellectual, Emotional, and Spiritual parts that make up every human being—or P.I.E.S. for short. The Physical includes things like your body, health, and energy. The Intellectual incorporates your mind, intelligence, and thoughts. The Emotional takes into account your emotions, feelings, and attitudes. The Spiritual includes intangibles such as your spirit, soul, and the unseen higher power that oversees all."
"Remember, when you change your inner world—your life—then your outer world—your life situation—will improve in parallel."
"You can learn more in an hour of silence than you can in a year from books."—MATTHEW KELLY
"Study after study shows that meditation can be more effective than medication."
"Think of daily meditation as a temporary vacation from your problems."
"It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to belief. Once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen."—MUHAMMAD ALI
"You will be a failure, until you impress the subconscious with the conviction you are a success. This is done by making an affirmation, which clicks."—FLORENCE SCOVEL SHINN
"Unfortunately, it took me a few more years to realize that affirmations were one of the most powerful tools for transforming your life."
"As Henry Ford said, “Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t, you’re right either way.”
"Constant repetition of an affirmation will lead to acceptance by the mind, and result in changes in your thoughts, beliefs and behaviors."
"reading this book—or any book—is an affirmation to yourself. Anything you read influences your thoughts. When you consistently read positive self-improvement books and articles, you are programming your mind with the thoughts and beliefs that will support you in creating success."
"Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible.—CHERIE CARTER-SCOTT
"Forget about logic, limits, and being practical. If you could have anything you wanted, do anything you wanted, and be anything you wanted—what would you have? What would you do? What would you be?"
"Involve all of your senses to maximize the effectiveness of your visualization."
"If you don’t make time for exercise, you’ll probably have to make time for illness.—ROBIN SHARMA
"person who won’t read has no advantage over one who can’t read.—MARK TWAIN
"Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body and prayer is to the soul. We become the books we read."—MATTHEW KELLY
"I highly recommend re-reading good personal development books. Rarely can we read a book once and internalize all of the value from that book."
"Whatever it is that you write, putting words on the page is a form of therapy that doesn’t cost a dime."—DIANA RAAB
"On the one hand, we all want to be happy. On the other hand, we all know the things that make us happy. But we don’t do those things. Why? Simple. We are too busy. Too busy doing what? Too busy trying to be happy."—MATTHEW KELLY
"The bigger the meal, the more food you give your body to digest, the more drained you will feel."
"Remember, the moment you accept total responsibility for everything in your life is the moment you claim the power to change anything in your life."
"My business was struggling, but after I started The Miracle Morning I was amazed at how, just by working on myself every day, I was able to turn it all around!”"
"Every day, think as you wake up, ‘Today I am fortunate to have woken up, I am alive, I have a precious human life, I am not going to waste it. I am going to use all my energies to develop myself, to expand my heart out to others. I am going to benefit others as much as I can.’—DALAI LAMA
