There are days when you are sure that your boss is not from this planet.

There is so much of everything today that we feel lost in this huge information ocean. There are so many sites, news, books, products, services… On the other side, you as a future (or current) entrepreneur want to get maximum exposure, to present yourself to the public and sell your products, services, etc. But with every new day it becomes harder and harder.

• Your main computer is a desktop PC or Mac.
• Your documents are put in folders in your cabinet.

All of us follow certain patterns in our behavior. These patterns (habits, rituals) drive us all the time. There are patterns that are moving us towards our goals and work for our good and wealth. There are some also habits that are not good for us and can damage our bodies, our souls, our relationships.

As we are rational creatures, we should interrupt our bad patterns and improve and create good patterns. I am a fan of Tony Robbins’ methodology and I use his Pattern-breaking routine daily. During my practice, I have made some changes in this technology and I can tell you that it works (with or without my changes). In this post I am going to share with you my Bad Habits Demolition Sequence.
