TIPS - Mastering my life
BRINGING EXCELLENCE INTO MY LIFE - NOT PERFECTION
OWNING MY FUTURE
FIND OUT WHY I WANT TO CHANGE
As a start, I ask myself: do I deserve to live an amazing life?
If the answer is no, I’ll ask another question: would my 5-year-old self have ever doubted that they deserved a wonderful life?
Unless trauma took place, the child within us has never doubted that we are here to live a great destiny. So much so that the child in us would probably wonder why we are even asking the question—the answer is so obvious, isn’t it?
Why not let that child in us come back?
Why not remind ourselves of that voice that shouts "yes"—because that is the only answer that makes sense?
I imagine myself as a child, answering with unwavering determination.
Like the world depends on it.
Like the question itself is absurd—like asking whether there’s a nose on my face.
Close your eyes and feel it: feel the strength of knowing that I deserve an amazing life.
This has nothing to do with material comfort or possessions. It’s about how I live my life, how I see things. I could have all the money in the world and still be miserable. Living a beautiful life starts from the inside. There’s no external circumstance that triggers it; it comes from within me. It’s up to me, and only me.
I deserve to live well, to bring what is currently just a wish into my reality.
And that means doing my best every minute of every day.
Doing my best to take good care of myself.
Doing my best to live an amazing life.
Doing my best to be a good colleague, spouse, friend, or parent.
Doing my best means putting my heart into everything I do.
It’s about giving my maximum at any given moment. Some days, when I have lots of energy, my best might look like a lot. Other days, when I’m tired or overwhelmed, it will be less—and that’s OK. This isn’t about pushing myself beyond my limits. It’s about doing the best I can within my abilities at any given time.
This is very different from seeking perfection. Perfection is unattainable by definition; it’s a race that never ends, always chasing "better" because nothing is ever good enough.
Being my best means I keep trying. It means I don’t give up. I keep growing, keep learning, and keep moving forward. I take a few steps, fall, and then get back up again and again until I succeed.
And yes, I will have doubts. Yes, I will face distractions and fears.
But the commitment I am making today is to do my best at living an amazing life.
I decide today that I will let nothing stand in my way, and I will be relentless about living the beautiful life that I deserve —within the best of my ability, moment by moment.
With Thee Puzzle, I now have the tools to recognize when my Ego is in charge and to understand that living in the present is one of the most effective ways to clear mental pollution.
While being present is incredibly useful, there are also moments when I need to think about the future I want to create.
Anticipating and projecting myself into the future can be both relevant and empowering—as long as my Ego is not in control. If it were, it would focus on imagining a future full of risks and negativity to avoid.
True power comes when I am able to align physical sensations, feelings, and thoughts in my vision of the future.
Experimenting with what my future could feel like—not just thinking about it—helps my brain believe it is already happening.
Feelings are always real, even if the situation triggering them exists only in my imagination.
This tip focuses on identifying and working toward one key milestone in my life that can be a game changer.
There are, of course, many potential game-changing events, but to get started, I need to pick just one. Once I tackle this, I can move on to the others.
Step 1: Choose one priority milestone
What is the one thing I need most in my life right now?
Is it a new job?
Is it becoming a parent?
Is it setting boundaries?
Is it allowing myself to live the good life I deserve?
Be as clear and specific as possible about this objective and write it down.
Step 2: Visualize how I will feel when it happens
Imagine how I will feel when this milestone becomes a reality. I will write this down in detail, including physical sensations:
Will my body feel relaxed?
Will I feel so energized that I need to jump around?
Will I feel the urge to shout or clap in celebration?
The more vivid and specific my description, the more I can connect emotionally to this future moment.
Step 3: List actions I can control
Next, I will make a list of everything that needs to happen to reach this milestone, focusing only on actions within my control.
Do I need to train or prepare myself in a specific way?
Do I need to reach out to certain people?
Do I need to work on resolving a Cold Case?
This list should be as exhaustive as possible. And I can add and remove items over time, as I see fit.
Step 4: Prioritize and phase the actions
Then I shall phase these actions over time, identifying where to start and what comes next.
Interestingly—and this may feel counterintuitive—I won’t set a strict end date for this goal. Timing is beyond my control, and things will unfold when they are meant to. Instead, I will prioritize actions based on importance and impact.
Note that there are now some online free tools available to phase actions over time. Look up for free project management tool and pick the one you like best - such as for instance the free instance of Trello.
Step 5: Follow the plan with discipline
Then work through my plan step by step, doing everything in my power to make my goal a reality.
Complete each task on my project plan, in the order defined and keeping in mind that:
I will have no regrets because I will know I did my best at every step.
I will track my progress, focusing on the wins—whether small or big.
I will spend the time it needs, because this is very important to me
I am my own benchmark in this process; no one else’s progress matters. What counts is that I am moving toward my goal and giving it the energy and effort I can.
Step 6: Embrace the journey
Regardless of when I reach my milestone, I will learn and grow all along the way. This journey is as important as the destination, if not more - as I will also be able to leverage these learnings in other aspects of my life.
I have decided to purchase Thee Puzzle, and I want to make the most out of it.
To ensure I use it to its full potential, it’s important to acknowledge why I want to change. Human nature is such that we change only when one of two things happens:
We’re in too much pain to stay where we are.
The benefits of change outweigh our current situation.
Outside of these two scenarios, change often remains an intellectual activity. We may like the idea of changing but don’t take the actions required to make it happen.
So, in my particular case:
What brought me here?
What am I here to solve?
What motivates me to change?
Why is it so important that I achieve this change?
Additionally, I need to ensure that once I achieve my goal, I don’t sabotage myself and fall back to where I started. The risk is real: once we feel comfortable, we can lose motivation and unconsciously drift back to old habits. It’s important to create a plan to ensure this doesn’t happen.
There is a good reason why I’m here, and that I will write for myself in full details.
And there is another reason why I will keep growing and never go back : my “greater purpose.” Think of it this way: once I’ve given myself everything I crave for today, what will keep me going is something bigger than myself. Because at that stage, my motivation to gift myself what I need will fade—simply because I’ll have already achieved it.
That’s when I’ll need a greater purpose to guide me forward. It must be positive and concrete. Otherwise said, it cannot be rooted in fear or negativity. For example:
If my goal is to get a new job, my greater purpose cannot be to avoid losing it. Instead, it could be to create such an impact that my department grows, creating opportunities for others.
Or, with my new income, I might get involved in a non-profit
The purpose must be something specific, meaningful, and bigger than myself. A vague statement like “I want to help others” isn’t enough—it needs to be actionable and concrete.
At this point, it’s no longer about the initial challenge that brought me here. It’s about the inner fire that fuels my desire to grow. This is the thought I will hang on to, the one that will keep me motivated.
To give you our own example: Thee Puzzle was created because we wanted to give time back to people—to save you years of struggle and help you use that time for good things instead of stress. And as you create positive change for yourself, those around you benefit from it too, and together we create a ripple effect. This is the ambition behind Thee Puzzle. When we faced challenges during our initial phase, we relied on this greater purpose to remind ourselves why we started and why we continue.
So, to recap: I should ensure I have two things readily available
My intrinsic motivation—the personal reason why I want to change.
My greater purpose—the bigger reason I will strive toward once my own needs are fulfilled.
By anchoring myself in these two forces, I will stay committed to my journey of growth and transformation. And increase my chances to get there, as the self discipline to act every day ties to knowing why I am doing it.
SAVOR
This is a tip about being grateful.
If you’re encountering it at the very beginning of your journey with us, it might feel counterintuitive. Often, people turn to Thee Puzzle because they are in pain, and they want that pain to stop.
So why be grateful when we’re suffering? Thank you, but no thank you—I’d rather skip that part!
It’s true that being grateful for the good things in life is easier than being grateful for the challenges.
But consider this: what if life was happening for me? What if everything that happens—good or bad—is designed to build a bigger and stronger version of myself? What if even the painful moments are ultimately in my best interest, even though it’s not obvious at the time?
In the moment, the pain can feel unbearable. Yet when we overcome it, we turn a page. We change. We grow.
That’s proof that even the struggles bring us something valuable. Overcoming them is the gift—because once we do, the same challenge doesn’t affect us anymore. If the situation arises again, we might not even notice it. We’ve moved on. We’ve risen above what once caused us years of suffering. And then, after a few quiet years, the next challenge comes.... which we will overcome too.
Take Thee Puzzle as an example.
It has now entered my life for good. It is going to transform how I cope with stress and uncertainty so that they will never negatively impact my life to the extent they do today.
If it wasn't for my challenges, I wouldn’t have thought about addressing this issue. I wouldn’t have found the right tools to take action. In a way, it’s because of my problems that Thee Puzzle came into my life! So, I can be grateful for my challenges—they brought me this gift.
I can begin to savor its positive impact. I use Thee Puzzle because I enjoy what it brings to my life, not because “I have to.” There’s no obligation with Thee Puzzle—only choices. I choose to use it because I value what it offers me.
Practice being grateful
Here’s what we recommend: every day, at the end of the day, take a moment to reflect on what went well.
Think about the good laughs, meaningful conversations with loved ones, or moments I truly enjoyed.
We guarantee that every single day, you’ll find something.
Plus in the rare case nothing stands out, remember—it’s within my power to create a positive moment, like watching something funny on the internet to make myself laugh.
So before going to sleep, replay those good moments in my mind and be grateful that they happened. Be thankful for the good things in your life.
While it’s easy to focus on what went wrong, there is so much that goes well too.
Let’s not forget to celebrate that.
CONGRATULATIONS!
