10 inspired things cell phone can do to empower yourself

January 12th, 2009 | Posted in affirmations, productivity

Do you take the cell phone with you all day long? Have you thought of using it to empower yourself?

Cell phone is becoming a life’s necessity nowadays, but most of us just take it as a communication tool. In fact, it can do more for you.

I have been using a smart phone for two years. In my opinion, I find there are at least 10 things a cell phone can do to help empower ourselves:

1 record and replay your own affirmations

I have written a post about this. It is simple, interesting and easy to record our own affirmations and replayed them. Only with a cell phone, you can use your fragment time better than ever.

Using your own voice to play affirmations can boost them. You are familiar with your own voice, so it is easier to believe what you are saying than that of others. More important, the whole process is so interesting that you are very easy to feel good doing it.

2 learn the audio lessons

Nowadays, the storage of cell phone is becoming larger and larger. It is easy to store parts of or the total audio lessons in the cell phone. Enjoy them in your spare time.

3 read e-books

If you have a 3.5-inch-screen cell phone, just like IPhone, you can fully enjoy the e-book reading on it. I had a HP6315 Pocket PC and I always copied many e-books. Many of the personal improvement books and science fictions were read on the phone.

4 get inspired message every day

Many sites, just like thesecret.tv, provide a kind of inspiring information delivery service. Once registering their service, you will get an inspired message every day through SMS.

5 help organize your daily inspired routine

Through alarm and task setting, you can fix your daily inspired routine. For example, get up early, gratitude for 10 minutes, meditation for 15 minutes, announcement reciting for 10 minutes and exercise for 15 minutes, etc.

6 write success journal anywhere and anytime

Success journal is a good tool of activating positive vibrations. But to make success journal effective, you must take it as a habit and stick to it.

Sometimes you perhaps forget to take your notebook with you, or you suddenly have a creative idea, then it is the time to dig the cell phone. Write temporary success journal on cell phone and move it to your notebook later.

7 learn from inspired games and videos

There are many inspired videos and games in the internet. Many of them have been supported by cell phone. Download them and enjoy them in your phone.

There are many ways for us to get improved. Using games is one most important way.

8 receive help from IM in the cell phone

Do you use MSN or Skype in your cell phone? I do.

Many IM applications have been modified to be used in the cell phone, like MSN and Skype. Many law of attraction gurus and personal improvement gurus use Skype as default IM software. Once you have questions, you can ask for help through it.

9 learn online course through browser anytime you want

Do you use cell phone to surf the web? If so, find some online courses and learn them in your spare time with cell phone.

10 email communication using the cell phone

To use online course, it is necessary to use email. Using special software or web browser, you can visit email and send email through cell phone.

Spend some time and do brainstorm, you will get more creative ideas on using cell phone better. Your cell phone is just like one inseparable friend, so make good use of it and always show your gratitude for it.

The power of 10-minute rule

January 6th, 2009 | Posted in laws of attraction, productivity

Today, we will enjoy the power of 10-minute rule. No matter how busy you are, you can use 10-minute rule to change your life.

10-minute rule includes two principles:

  •  you always have one or more 10-minute spare time every day
  •  you can do many powerful things in these 10-minute periods. These things can change your life greatly

The first principle

No matter how busy we are now, we can have or create one or more 10-minute period. For example:

    The time waiting for bus, train, or plane
    The time waiting for the open of meeting
    The time waiting for your friends or someone else
    Get up 10 minutes earlier
    Go to bed 10 minutes later than ever
    ……

The examples above don’t include your own spare time. In fact, you may have many many 10-minute periods every day, but you possibly have use them to do something not so useful or just let them go.

A better way to use the first principle is to find and list 10-minute periods deliberately. Except the examples above, you are certain to find more of them.

The second principle

If you have read personal improvement books by the great and successful authors, you will find one same fact: they all claim that All the wisdom and power come from the within.

If you really believe the law of attraction, you will know thoughts create things. Our inner world charges our own outer physical world.

10-minute rule is power because we can use it to find and recall our inner power to change our physical reality. Now I summarize 10 things recommended by these great authors, such as Bob Proctor, Anthony Robbins, Esther hicks and Louise Hay and so on:

    Make gratitude list
    Meditation
    Creative visualization ( how to? )
    Make life purpose statements
    Read life purpose statements
    Write life purpose statements
    Read or sing affirmations
    Write affirmations ( how to? )
    Read books
    Make plan

The first 8 things are all about inner power. You can easily and effectively do any one of them in ten minutes. The key is whether you want to try it or not. Take the first step and all will get easy.

The last 2 things can help you move smoothly in your own physical world. You can list more of those things. In fact, we are familiar with listing these actual actions. But be careful, the key to change your life is to empower your inner world first.
