Hi, I'm Dean Bokhari. Over the last 10 years, I've managed to take my life from miserable to meaningful. And it all started when I decided to begin reading about what it actually takes to design a fulfilling life. Since then, I've read 732 Self-Improvement books (and counting) in the areas of personal development, behavioral psychology, and meaningful work. A few years ago, I..

Last week, my son Rumi turned three.
It feels like just yesterday he could barely say, “dada.”
Now, three years later, he’s yelling “Thank you so much” to the DoorDash driver and ripping open Amazon packages to see if there’s anything in there for him.
He’s curious about everything.
Watching my little guy grow and learn got me thinking—how wonderful it must be to live the toddler life.
Rumi’s life is beautifully simple: Eat, play, sleep.
Those are his top three priorities each day.
He’s not worried about paying b ..read more

I once heard the late author, Zig Ziglar (a true “OG” in the Personal Development industry) share the following little nugget of wisdom about motivation:
People often say that motivation doesn’t last. Well, neither does bathing. That’s why we recommend it daily.
Zig was right: motivation really doesn’t last.
Which is exactly why we need little sparks of it on a daily basis.
Motivation is a powerful force. But it’s also a mysterious one…
It moves us into action.
It generates powerful emotions.
And it gets ..read more

Think about the last time you had something crucially important to do, but got stuck in a loop of procrastination… What kept you from taking action?
Often, we procrastinate because we’re overwhelmed + unclear about the goal or project we’ve got in front of us.
We think about EVERYTHING that goes into getting to the finish line.
We think about EVERYTHING we need to do to accomplish the goal or project.
Then we start doubting ourselves:
“It’s too big.”
“It’s too vague.”
“It’s too complex.”
“It’s too scary.”
“It’s ..read more

“Having a clear action outline prevents procrastination due to imagined complexity.” —David Allen, Getting Things Done
Most of the tasks people keep on their to-do lists aren’t doable.
In other words, most to-do lists are a bunch of commitments with no clear vision of what being “done” actually looks like.
That’s a huge problem.
Your brain is naturally designed to help you figure out how to do things, but only if you know what the endpoint looks like.
For example, there’s a BIG difference between creating a lis ..read more

“There’s only one way under high heaven to get the best of an argument, and that is to avoid it… Because a man convinced against his will, is of the same opinion still.” — Dale Carnegie, from How to Win Friends + Influence People

We’re going to play a game today.
Grab a rubber band.
If you don’t have one, no worries—imagine you’ve got one in your hand.
Now, take that rubber band, loop it between the index fingers of your left and right hands… Then, slowly stretch outward.
Can you feel the tension?
Now imagine this:
Your LEFT hand is where you are NOW—your present reality.
Your RIGHT hand (stretching away from the left) is where you WANT TO BE—your ideal reality.
Dynamic tension
