How To Take Control of Your Life

1. Seek More Knowledge.

2. Ask for Advice. Advice can Lead To Ideas, To Solutions, To Opportunities.

3. Get the Right Training.

4. Find Someone to Apprentice Yourself To.  Work for free, if you know the apprenticeship will pay off.

5. Look for Opportunities to Prove You Are Responsible.

6. Set Yourself Goals.  Daily Goals like Walk 30 Minutes Every Day. Or Weekly Goals Like Go To The Gym 3 Times a Week.  Or Monthly Goals like Lose 2 lbs a month.  Or Annual Goals like lose 20 lbs in one year.

7. Demonstrate You Can Solve Problems.  Be Interested In Every Problem, Even if It Is Not In Your Area of Interest.

8. List Your Priorities.  Look at the List Every Day.

9. Do Things Outside Your Comfort Zone.  If You Are Scared Of Attempting Something – A Speech, An Article, A New Activity, Entering a Competition, Do It.  You Never Know What It Could Lead To.

10. Stop Finding Excuses for The Status Quo. Investing In The Status Quo is Not Necessarily a Good Investment.

11. Identify The Life Skills and Areas In Which You Are Clueless, and Think About How You Can Close That Gap.

12. Become More Self-Sufficient.  Learn Essential Skills like Driving, Cooking, Doing Your Taxes, Installing Things, Fixing Things.

13. Learn to Evaluate Your Decisions, and Learn to Make a Case For Your Decisions.

14. Avoid Situations That Could Become Problematic.

15. Stop Manipulating Your Way Out of Problems.

16. Know Your Limits.

17. Make a Budget and Stick to It.

18. Stop Gaming the System to Get By.  Eventually, You Will Run Into Obstacles.

19. Understand Setbacks Are Temporary.  You Can Make a Setback Worse By Prolonging Your Response to It, Instead Of Getting On With Your Life.

20. Put One Foot In Front of The Other Until You Have Taken Control Of Your Life.

YOU CAN DO IT.
