Resolutions: the act of resolving or determining upon an action or course of action, method, procedure, etc. ~ Resolutions definition, dictionary.
On every new year, there are 10s or perhaps 100s of resolutions that we come up with and wanting to see them getting done. Not everyone is successful in doing so — not that they don’t put in effort — but there are others who try and do accomplish them.
What they do is not only to just talk about their dreams and goals — resolutions are defined as an act, a course of action, methods, and procedures — they actually do them.
You too have an ability to see to it that most (hopefully all) your resolutions get done.
Start by having an action plan, such as the following 10 action steps. You’ll get a head-start by doing so.

Breaking the Gambling Addiction — a 102 pages ebook. You don’t need to go through any 60 days program, 30 days fast, or 7 days retreats—sometimes they work, while there are times where people may fail and fall back to their old ways, and are perhaps too embarrassed to share their stories again.
Gambling addiction doesn’t come overnight—and it doesn’t break off from a person’s life in an instant either.
The process of instilling the bad habit begins as a lifestyle choice, often using it as a “socializing tool” to being in the crowd and joining their friends for a quick bet or two. A person would gradually allow himself / herself to make isolated bets in hope for a bigger windfall, often increasing the amount used each time—some at this point may know how to control his habit, but there are many others that aren’t able to do so.
One sign of a person’s habit turning into an addiction is when he / she falls into debt and starts becoming desperate for money. They are lured into the hopes of escapism and for the big wins to clear of the accumulated losses while admitting to losing the battle against the addiction.
While there are many who aren’t addicted to gambling, it is a devastating problem for those who are.
This book is meant for those who find themselves facing the following 3 issues:
- Constantly in debt, and using gambling as a reason to trying to get out of it.
- Trying to break the habit, but yet to find the empowerment and reasons to do so.
- Who knows someone (friends, or even a loved one) who is struggling with the gambling addiction.

Doctors recommend that you get 8 hours of sleep every night, and maintain this sleeping schedule for consistence.
But, we know that not everyone could achieve that daily — I’ve to admit that I don’t get such luxury — and that it is almost lucky if you can achieve just half of the recommended hours nightly!
So I’ve tried to get by with half of the 8 recommended hours yesterday… The results were disastrous. I couldn’t get anything done. It was as though I was a walking zombie, with bloodshot eyes and a terrible body posture. Even coffee couldn’t save my day.
What you need is to not to turn into a living-dead — you won’t be getting anything done in this state. What you want is to have an achievable sleeping hours schedule that you can stick to, have a better physiology, be productive and getting things done!
Maybe you would want to start with 6 hours (making it an essential number), and if it’s too little for you, feel free to gradually increase the hours to that which is optimal and comfortable for you.
But first, here’s the top 10 reasons why 6 hours of sleep is essential for your productivity.
