Feel The Fear and Change The World

Arvind Devalia has written a brand new manifesto called "Make It Happen"

It's released for download today. You can claim your copy here.

He has also written a wonderful post called "Feel the Fear and Change the World" which I told him could be the title of his next book. It plays on the popular book by Susan Jefferson called Feel The Fear And Do It Anyway, and her popular Feel The Fear Workshops and Stories.

He has seven points here:

1. Get started.

2. Does the world even need changing?

3. Let your line shine

4. Make a difference to one Starfish at a time

5. Find like minded people

6. Get inspired by your heroes

7. Create your road map for change and keep going

A Guide To Making Things Happen by Arvind Devalia

Arvind Devalia has written the ultimate guide to making things happen. I first met Arvind nearly seven years ago at a charity event where he spoke for one hour about the Wheel of Life exercise to help one determine their work/life balance.

He has just written a brand new manifesto called "A Guide To Making Things Happen" which he is about to release in the next few days or weeks for his blog readers. You'll want to check out his blog and sign up to be notified when he releases it.

The manifesto is broken down into three parts: (1) reasons for making it happen now (2) how to start making it happen and (3) go! make it happen.

He further breaks down part two into simplifying your life, your health and exercise, healthy eating, career fulfillment, relationships. He ends on a short discussion on your personal social responsibility (also the title of one of his paperback book's) and discovering your legacy.

The 43-page manifesto, colorfully laid out, is chock full of inspirational quotes and motivation to get you going. Arvind seems to have two purposes - first, to get you to get out and make something happen in your life that's in line with being socially responsible, and second, to check out his Make It Happen Club which is a group of people working to make things happen in their life and the world.

You'll want to read this manifesto to help you go from where you are to take the next step and be socially responsible. It helps you to think about what it is you want to get out of your life - and then strive to realize it.

Here is a section of the book in which Arvind writes his seven beliefs:

 

Rock Paper Scissors - A game of choice

Every day we are presented with opportunities of rock-paper-scissors.

We have endless choices that we are presented with every day.

A or B.

X, Y or Z.

Blue dress or green dress?

Slippers or heels?

Hope or Fear?

Scarcity or Abundance?

Work-life balanced living or risk taking life-living adventure?

Each day you are presented with endless choices, you get to decide what you want.

What do you choose to focus on today?
