How often do you wash your towel? Some people wash once a week, while some, once a year. The towel is a fertile breeding ground for millions of microbes, especially those found on human skin and on the gut. No wonder the towel is one of the objects that facilitate fecal-oral contamination (literally connecting the two ends of the gut). Worse still, most people keep towels in the bathroom (near the toilet). Every flush of the toilet sends mist with millions of microbes, ranging from H.pylori, salmonella and other deadly bacteria and viruses. When you wash your hands ready for a meal, and dry them with your body towel, there's high chance you are directly ingesting your fecal matter, or, if in a shared lavatory, someone else's faeces. Unless cleaned well, viruses such as human papillomavirus (causes warts, anal cancer and cervical cancer) can be transmitted when towels are shared with infected individuals. So, what to do? 1.

1. Feel the fear but learn to love it. When I speak of fear, I don’t mean like “fear for your life because of a dangerous situation”. My definition of fear is our irrational fears that originate in our minds: fear of failure, fear of others judging us, fear of ridicule, etc. What’s the one thing all of these fears have in common? That is, they come from us being afraid of something that hasn’t even happened yet ! Most of us live our lives paralyzed by a fear of something that is actually a “perceived danger” vs an actual reality. Start creating a loving and productive relationship with your fears. See your fears as an indication that you are on the right track. When you are scared to do something, it means that that's the exact thing you MUST do in order to take your life and business to the next level! My “Don’t just talk about it, DO IT!” tip: Identify one thing you’re afraid to do. Then figure out the next step, just 1 step . Commit to taking that step in the next week. 2. Pay attention to your ego Be aware of what the voices are saying in your head. Just observe them. Don’t judge or beat yourself up by thinking, “ Ugh, there you go again those negative thoughts! ” When you do that, it actually gives MORE FUEL to your greedy little ego. Approach it with neutrality and watch your ego start to quiet down. The other thing that helps is to see your ego as something or a voice that is OUTSIDE of who you are at your most authentic self. My “Don’t just talk about it, DO IT!” tip: Today, give your ego a name that's both enduring and hilarious at the same time! You can always use my ego's name, "That crazy b*tch!" 3. OWN your unique and purposeful journey You are where you are because that’s where you belong. No matter what your situation is: wanting to be in a relationship, being unhappy in your job, being too afraid to start a business, etc, This is EXACTLY where you need to be. There’s always a reason why you’re experiencing some challenge or hardship. No, it's not because the Universe hates you or you're unlucky. It’s only there because there is a part of you that needs healing, growth, or evolution so you can become the person you need to be to have all the things you want in your life and business. “NOTHING in life is free. You earn your successes through heart, courage, tears, & an UNWILLINGNESS to COMPROMISE.” [Tweet This!] My “Don’t just talk about it, DO IT!” tip: Identify one area of your life where you are NOT owning your journey but instead are comparing yourself to other people. How can you shift your thoughts so you can approach this area with more compassion and love? 4. Detox your life of negative people People forget their power and ALLOW toxic people into their lives and even permit their negative energy to bring them down. It may surprise you that the majority of energy you receive from other people is going to be negative. They’re either complaining or they’re shooting down your dreams. Which scenario would you choose? Option A - Tolerate the toxic people in your life AND their drama so you won’t have to feel alone. Or Option B - Live like a hermit if you have to but have peace, inspiration, energy, and motivation that comes from NOT having to deal with people’s drama. So from this point on, I give you permission to detox your life of negative people who just aren’t helping you move your life and business forward. My “Don’t just talk about it, DO IT!” tip: Think about one person in your life who just isn’t contributing to your success. How can you start releasing them from your life? You can also read my articles on detoxing your life of negative people and family members . 5. The Universe has your back, no matter what Ask the Universe for help. You’ve got to let go of your pride and ego that’s telling you that you don’t need anyone else and that you can get this done by yourself. Do you want to take the long, difficult, and painful way OR the easy way? It is not a sign of weakness to let go and surrender your biggest problems to the Universe. We all deserve support, insight, and guidance. And if you want to get on the fast track to success or to manifesting what you want, it’s CRITICAL that you develop your spirituality and your relationship with the Universe. My “Don’t just talk about it, DO IT!” tip: Identify one goal or dream you’ve been putting the DEATH GRIP on. Now, let go of your struggle to “make it happen” by just surrendering the outcome to the Universe. Try this prayer, “ Dear Universe, I surrender my [insert dream/goal here] to you. I trust that you will guide me to the right opportunities that are aligned with my highest good.”" Commitment means doing whatever the hell it takes to achieve something you are passionate about & dedicated to."a<"http://clicktotweet.com/zIHSe">
