Your brain will change when you read this.
Literally.
The human brain has 100 billion neurons, and each time you learn something new your brain generates new ones. This growth can continue as you age, contributing to your happiness, health and longevity. In new brain research neurobiologists have been able to observe neurons through a video microscope as they grow and form new dendrites. This research is groundbreaking because it shatters the prior belief doctors held that, as we age, brain cells die and cannot regenerate.
Scientists studying the growth of new neurons in the brain know that the brain can in fact rewire itself, and that certain regions remain highly dynamic throughout life. Dr. Gage, a scientist at the Salk Institute, led a team that took postmortem brain tissue from patients, while other researchers viewed cells under various microscopes to determine that brain cells can in fact regenerate. Talk about transformation!
Your brain can stay young. And a huge key to keeping it that way is to be intentional about exercising it. When you focus on transforming thoughts and increase (in any area of your life), the result is a positive flow into every area of your life. It’s like turning on a water faucet. Transformation leads to multiplication.
No matter what your age, researchers have proven that you can change your brain, and change your life. You can learn a new skill, hobby or profession. But did you know that it’s also possible to learn how to be happier?
This is your moment. Transformation is in the air, and the path beyond it contains the fully engaged, full-on, abundantly joyful life where you have exceedingly more.
Arm yourself with new tools and a fresh perspective to help you reach a higher level of happiness. Joseph McClendon's Get Happy NOW! is more than just a book. It's a living tool that can transform your life. Click here to learn more!

What is the origin of true ambition? There exists really only one place to find true ambition and that is within you—in every thought, in every movement, in every motivation. Your ambition is an expression of who you truly are, your own self-expression.
Self-expression. Isn't self-expression really self-direction? How you think, how you move, how you motivate yourself. Ambition is a result of self-direction and self-direction is one of the six key principles necessary for building ambition. Positive self-direction says, "I know who I am and I know where I want to go. I'm accumulating knowledge and experiences and feelings and philosophies that will help prepare me for opportunities that I know will show up without notice or any help on my part." Because you know where you want to go, you have already been working on the parts of your personality that will make you better. Working on your attitude, working on your health, working on your time-management skills. Putting it all down on paper. And you constantly see yourself in the place you want to be, going in the direction you want to go.
Direction determines destination. So here is a question you must ask yourself, "Are all the disciplines that I'm currently engaged in taking me where I want to go?" What an important question to ask yourself at the beginning of the month, the beginning of the week, the beginning of the day. Because here is what you don't ever want to do—kid yourself. Kid your neighbor, kid me and kid the marketplace, but don't kid yourself—fingers crossed—hoping you will arrive at a good destination when you're not even headed that way. You have to ask yourself often, AM I? Am I doing the disciplines that are taking me in the direction I want to go? Don't neglect to ask these important questions, questions that help determine your direction, the set of your sail, your destination.
Is this the direction I want for my life?
Is this someone else's direction?
Is this a goal I have been ingrained with since my childhood?
Is this goal my parents’, my spouse's, my boss's, my children's or is it MINE?
Ask yourself these questions and then debate them. After you have answered these questions within yourself, then take it one step further and ask, "What am I doing that is working or not working?" Debate it all. Work with your mind to figure out the best possible direction for you—your self-direction. And then ambitiously pursue your own self-direction. Let the power of your own ambition take you where you want to go, to do what you want to do, to create the life you want to live!
From Jim Rohn’s newsletter a powerful message on determining your own direction and goals. What is your own ambition in life?
