Take the blame, point the credit

Corie Muldoon

Old way of thinking: take the credit, point the blame. This is how most people operate.

New way of thinking: take the blame, point the credit. This is how the greats operate.

Take the blame

We’re responsible for our actions or lack there of.

What could have we done differently?

No pointing fingers at others.

What did we do wrong?

We don’t have to respond with blame on others, we choose to.

Point the credit

We’re responsible for creating incredible things.

You play a role. So do others.

Point the credit to others as often as you can.

For example, my blog post goes viral – I can only thank the tools I have in front of me, the people who made and manage them, and the inspiration around me because without them all a viral blog post would not even be a thing.

We see you putting in the work, however there are no gold stars in life. What we get are feelings.

We feel happy and accomplished for example even if it’s just for the time being.

And when we point credit, we give these gifts of happiness to others.

We feel happy and now so do they 🙂

Wrapping up

Give credit instead of taking credit. When you point credit to others… you are giving them a gift of happiness and a fine reputation to hold up.

Self reflect instead of pointing fingers. When you take blame and reflect on your actions… you grow as an individual and show up in the world a better person.

15 Tips for a Healthier Relationship

Corie Muldoon
  1. Follow the 100/0 rule. Give 100% and expect 0%. Your hard work and dedication to the relationship will bring self-fulfillment and happiness, not what the other person does for you.

  2. Show up for yourself so that you can show up in your relationship.

  3. Don’t let emotions stack up. Express to your partner that you’re not feeling the best, and take as much space and time as you need to do some self-reflection and regroup.

  4. When emotions rise during conversation, walk it off and take some deep breaths- pick things up when your emotions have cooled or schedule another time to talk it out. Don’t allow emotion to rule your conversations.

  5. Don’t keep count. Just because you took the trash out last, doesn’t mean it’s the other person’s turn this time around. Remember give 100, expect 0!

  6. Set healthy boundaries, and be clear on the consequences if boundaries are crossed.

  7. Try not to take things personal. Sometimes we aren’t in the best mood, it’s human! If you notice your significant other getting a little worked up, offer to give them space to work through it. That could be physically removing yourself from the room, or allowing your loved one to feel seen and heard by listening intently without judgment or criticism.

  8. Create and commit to Family Meetings. The reason for this is to get everyone (including children) on the same page with where the family is heading and the effort required to get there. Some meetings are daily, while others are weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly.

    Below is a list of meetings we currently are implementing with great success:
    1. Daily Huddle
    2. Daily Reflection

    3. Weekly Reflection
    4. Weekly Finance
    5. Weekly Timeblock
    6. Weekly Book Club
    7. Weekly 80/20 Analysis

    8. Monthly Reflection
    9. Monthly Finance

    10. Quarterly Reflection
    11. Quarterly Finance

    12. Yearly Reflection
    13. Yearly Finance
    14. Yearly Self-Analysis
    15. Yearly Goal Setting

  9. Don’t criticize, condemn, or complain.
    1. Criticize: indicate faults in a disapproving way
    2. Condemn: express complete disapproval of, typically publicly
    3. Complain: express dissatisfaction or annoyance about something

  10. Give honest and sincere appreciation.

  11. Never show others that you are not interested in what they have to say.

  12. Don’t try to make your partner over.

  13. Pay little attentions (do the small things with no expectation or attention drawn to it).

  14. Be courteous (polite, respectful, considerate in manner).

  15. And lastly, keep things sexy!

Success Rhythm

Corie Muldoon

The success rhythm goes as follows and works for every goal in any area of life:

Plan. Do. Review. Repeat.

  1. Plan: Utilize knowledge to make a plan.
  2. Do: Execute on a plan while tracking progress along the way.
  3. Review: Use lessons from your mistakes to improve on a plan.
  4. Repeat: Adjust plans as needed and keep rolling- you’re moving in the right direction!

There is no secret to achieving your goals. Read that again.

You need to put in the work and persist.

Regardless of doubts, fears, unsuccessful plans, external forces…

Those who succeed persevere by learning more and adjusting their plans along the way with a good, positive attitude.

The successful just won’t give up, they refuse to.

They try things differently and take small, daily actions consistently over a long period of time.

Think long-term actions = long-term success.

What you eat adds up

Corie Muldoon

Remember to bring awareness to what you decide to fuel your body with…

What you eat today will have a lasting impact on your health.

Think long-term.

You won’t see the results immediately, but overtime.

Meaning, your eating habits will expose you, either positively or negatively, as time goes on.

Good health begins with choosing better alternatives in the moment.

However, the key is choosing the better alternative time and time again until it’s habit.

If you need a place to start, I always recommend working on healthy snacking…

Start small, and start now! (-:

Simple life lessons from Tony Robbins

Corie Muldoon

Change your story, change your life.

A belief is a feeling of certainty.

Turn your mess into your message.

The past does not equal the future, unless you live there.

With the right story and state of mind, you can make anything work.

Happiness is a decision.

Change your environment, focus, and language.

Your words create your world.

If we’re in our head, we’re dead.

Avoid emotional stacking.

Complexity is the enemy of execution.

Be really clear of what you really want and where you want to be.

Clarity is power. The more clear you are about something the more power you will have.

Where am I really? Rate where you are and where you want to be.

How’re you going to close that gap? Emotional hunger and intensity.

Crush, destroy, and replace any story of limitation: excuses on why you’re not where you want to be.

Suffering is not in the facts, it’s in the perception of the facts.

Your story is creating the pain: what’s bullshit about the story you’re telling yourself?

Stretch philosophy: when you say you can’t, switch to MUST. If you want freedom, you have to stretch yourself further.

Learned helplessness. Let life happen- surrender to it.

Massive action is the cure all.

Give more than you ever expect to receive and you’ll have nothing to worry about.

Each day requires effort

Corie Muldoon

One good day does not mean that the next will naturally go smooth.

It takes effort to be happy, although happiness may seem effortless.

If your happiness is dependent on accomplishing certain goals, what happens when fate intervenes?

It’s risky to let things outside of your control determine your happiness.

Let’s take pleasure from our actions – in taking the right actions, rather than the results that come from them.

Our ambition should not be to win, but to play with our full effort.

Our intention is not to be thanked or recognized, but to help and to do what we think is right.

Our focus is not on what happens to us, but how we respond.

In this, we will always find contentment and resilience.
