The Secret To Happiness - 90 DAY CHALLENGE

Have you heard of the 90 day challenge? It's a secret technique to happiness.





What do you need to start? 

It's very simple , you just need
  • 1 post it /sticky note pad
  •  1 pen
  •  1 minute per day


What do I have to do?

All you need to do is to write down daily, your heart's desire (e.g Relationships jobs, business,health, happiness, etc) on the post it note

  • Write by hand
  • Write as if the thing you wish exists already in the present
  • Not I wish or I could have but I have
  • Not negative , state in positive
  • For example: 
    • I have a great relationship with my wife
    • I have more than enough to give to others
    • I am blessed
    • My finances are doing well
    • I have perfect health
    •  I have a great relationship with my children
  • On the bottom right corner of the post it note, write a number.
    •  Start with number 1 then next day number 2 then next day number 3 until you reach 90
    • However  if  skip one day go back to 1. so the 90 day challenge might take you 1/2 a year.

The puzzle of motivation | Dan Pink

Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don't: Traditional rewards aren't always as effective as we think. Listen for illuminating stories -- and maybe, a way forward.






Have you heard about the candle problem, devised by the psychologist Karl Dunker in 1945 or the work done by the economist Dan Areily?

The experiments they did show a surprising fact about motivation. People think it is all carrots and sticks but maybe it's not.

There is a mismatch between what science knows and what business does. Here is what science knows. One: Those 20th century rewards, those motivators we think are a natural part of business, do work, but only in a surprisingly narrow band of circumstances. Two: Those if-then rewards often destroy creativity. Three: The secret to high performance isn't rewards and punishments, but that unseen intrinsic drive-- the drive to do things for their own sake. The drive to do things cause they matter.
