Daily Inspiration
03/9/2010– Those who profess to favor freedom, yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightening. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. “Frederick Douglas, American Abolitionist, Letter to an associate, 1849″
02/9/2010–Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
“Henry Miller”01/9/2010–In order to reach a high peak we will have to climb many small peaks. This will involve continuous ascending and descending. Many times the high peak will disappear from our visibility. However firmness of mind, focus, dedication and perseverance will take us there.
31/8/2010– You can’t build a quality relationship with the person who doesn’t care. You can be friendly,nice but when they don’t care, there is no hope. You are a fool if you are trying to build with the heart who doesn’t care!
30/8/2010– 3 Keys How To Discover Your Difference From Others
1- What does your mind love to learn about?
2- What does your mouth love to speak about?
3- Where do you love to put your time?
You will know your difference from others when you know your passion. Your difference is more important than your weakness. What you hear determines what you pursue and what you pursue you obtain. A wrong voice can devastate your life, a voice that feeds your doubts. Choose wisely whom you gonna listen,whether it TV,radio,people and so on… Listening is the seed for energy. If you want to increase your energy, you have to listen what makes you feel good, inspiring,happy and so forth.
Avoid focusing on your weakness, because focus is a magnifier. You can make anything big through your focus. It’s an only cure for blocking out distractions.
29/8/2010– Risks
To laugh is to risk appearing the fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out for another is to risk involvement. To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas, your dreams, before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return.
To live is to risk dying. To hope is to risk despair. To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, and is nothing.
They may avoid suffering and sorrow, but they cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love, or live. Chained by their attitudes, they are slaves, they have forfeited their freedom. Only a person who risks is free.
28/8/2010– The Power Of Effort
By inaction or not doing what should be done, people fail and they blame luck. Life without vision, courage and depth is simply a blind experience. Small, lazy and week minds always take the easiest way, the path of least resistance. Athletes train 10-15 years for 10 seconds of performance. Ask them if they got luck. Ask an athlete how he feels after a good workout. He will tell you that he feels spent. If he doesn’t feel that way, it means he hasn’t worked out to his maximum ability.
Losers think life is unfair. They think only of their bad breaks. They don’t consider that the person who is prepared and play well still got the same bad breaks but overcame them. That is the difference. The winner’s threshold for tolerating pain becomes higher because in the end he is not training just for the game as for his character. It takes action, preparation and planning rather than waiting, wondering and wishing, to accomplish any goal in life.
“Shiv Khera”
27/8/2010– I doesn’t matter who is right, you could be right from your point of view, and the person you are arguing with could be right from his/her’s point of view. But what does really matter is- WHAT WORKS!!!
26/8/2010– How To Increase Your Energy
How to increase your energy,there is a very easy way to do that. First of all you need to make two lists. First list you need to label “Things That Energize Me” and the second list “Things That Drain Me” Try to fill in two lists to the best of your ability. See if you can get to at least 10 items on each list. For example;
List 1; Things That Energize Me ——————————-List 2; Things That Drain Me
1. Spending time with my children 1. Doing my taxes

This will cause an immediate increase in your day – to – day energy levels and before you know it, you will find yourself feeling more positive,enthusiastic and hopeful.
25/8/2010– It is when a man ceases to do the things he has to do and does the things he likes to do, that the
character is revealed.24/8/2010– You are now at a crossroads. This is your opportunity to make the most important decision you will ever make. Forget your past. Who are you now? Who have you decided you really are now? Don’t think about who you have been. Who are you now? Who have you decided to become? Make this decision consciously. Make it carefully. Make it powerfully.
” Robbins, Anthony”23/8/2010– It’s not the events of our lives that shape us, but our beliefs as to what those events mean.
” Robbins, Anthony”22/8/2010– One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
- Robbins, Anthony21/8/2010– Put your faith in God, not money or friends, and see what he can do. Don’t expect God to work things out for you,your way- because he knows what’s best fo you,even if you don’t understand what he is doing- just trust HIM.
20/8/2010– You see, it’s never the environment; it’s never the events of our lives, but the meaning we attach to the events — how we interpret them — that shapes who we are today and who we’ll become tomorrow.
- Robbins, Anthony19/8/2010– I believe life is constantly testing us for our level of commitment, and life’s greatest rewards are reserved for those who demonstrate a never-ending commitment to act until they achieve. This level of resolve can move mountains, but it must be constant and consistent. As simplistic as this may sound, it is still the common denominator separating those who live their dreams from those who live in regret.
- Robbins, Anthony18/8/2010– One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.
- Robbins, Anthony17/8/2010–Vision- is the ability to see invisible and if you can see invisible you can achieve imposable.
16/8/2010– What Gives To People The Level Of Comfort?
People don’t care how much you know, they wanna know how much you care.
15/8/2010– It is imposable to motivate people, because motivation – is action. You cannot take action for somebody else, but what you can do is to inspire them. Inspiration – is thinking. So when you change there thinking than they will motivate themselves to do whatever they want to achieve there desired results.
14/8/2010– To accuse others for one’s own misfortunes is a sign of want of education. To accuse oneself shows that one’s education has begun. To accuse neither oneself nor others shows that one’s education is complete. “Epictetus”
13/8/2010– A leader who does not produce leaders is not a great leader.
12/8/2010– If you believe that something is impossible, do not disturb the person who is doing it. “Albert Einstein”
11/8/2010– All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident. “Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860)”
10/8/2010– Self-respect is the root of discipline; the sense of dignity grows with the ability to say no to oneself. “Abraham J. Heschel (1907-1972), Polish educator”
9/8/2010– Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow. “Ralph Waldo Emerson”
8/8/2010– Forgive and Let Go
Perhaps the most important habit that you can develop to have wonderful relationships, and to live a long and happy life, is the habit of forgiveness. Every religion, and every spiritual tradition, seems to have forgiveness as a core principle for spiritual development. By forgiveness, I mean your ability to freely forgive other people for anything they have ever done or said that has hurt you in any way. The ability to forgive opens the keys to the spiritual kingdom. The ability to forgive frees you from the past and makes you a completely different person. Virtually all negative emotions, anger, frustration, guilt, resentment, envy, jealously and blame arise from the inability to forgive a person for something he or she has done or said in the past.
Many people go through their entire lives still angry and resentful toward one or both of their parents for a mistake that their parents made with them at an early age. They are still angry because they felt that one of their parents was unfair, unjust, unsupportive, closed-minded, or unduly critical or hurtful. Get over it!
This may sound frivolous or cruel, but it is one of the most important things I’ve ever learned in a lifetime. Most of your unhappiness comes from your failure to let go of negative experiences from your past. As the result of refusing to let go of them, you keep them alive, like keeping a fire burning. Not only did you pay a price in terms of pain and hurt when the event occurred, but by keeping it alive, you continue to pay that price, over and over again. Just,get over it,let it go!7/8/2010– 7 Decisions That Can Change Your World In 7 Days
1. Decide Who You Will Ignore.
2. Decide Who You Enjoy.
3. Decide Who You Want To Impress Most.
4. Decide Who Has Ignored You.
5. Decide The Tasks You No Longer Enjoy Doing.
6. Decide Whose Example Is Worth Following With Passion.
7. Decide What You Want Your Daily World To Be Like.6/8/2010– If You Do Not Do What God Has Placed In Your Heart, You Will Eventually Do What Satan Has Planted In Your Flesh.
Your Focus Is Your Master. Whatever keeps your attention has become your master. Your Energy Is Your Seed For The Future You Desire. What has The Holy Spirit whispered to Your Heart in the midnight hour? What does God talk to you about the most? Give yourself to it. Empty your heart toward it. Why? Energy requires a focus.
If you do not do what God has placed in your heart, you will eventually start doing what satan places in your flesh.If you are not performing your Assignment, you will become adversarial to your Assignment. Jonah is a perfect example. God told him to go to Nineveh. He decides to go to Tarshish. He did the opposite of the command of God. Guilt is a force. Guilt searches for retaliation.
Nobody can stay neutral toward God. That’s why atheists stay angry. I asked an atheist once, “Why are you so angry about someone you believe does not even exist?”
Rejection Of Truth Is The Magnet For Error. Rejection Of Your Assignment Is An Invitation To Demonic Entry.5/8/2010– The Law Of Difference
Sameness creates comfort, Difference creates your reward. What do you love passionately? What environment unlocks your joy? What would you rather talk about than anything else on the earth?
If I say the name Bill Gates, you are going to think computers.
If I say Mohammed Ali, you are going to think boxing.
If I say Tiger Woods, you are going to think golf.
If I say Billy Graham, you are going to think evangelism.
If I say Benny Hinn, you are going to think healing.
What is the one word that would separate you from every other person? When I arrive in different places where I speak I will ask the host pastor, “What is the one word that describes your ministry?” Usually they will say, “That is a good question, I do not know, I would have to think about that.” I say, “Is it Restoration? Miracles? Love? Faith? Family? What do you consider the dominant theme of your life? That ought to be on your church sign…in your newsletter…on the name of your TV program.Everything about your ministry should have a focus. What is your Difference from another? Neiman Marcus is very different than Wal-Mart. They have identified their Difference. The Law of Difference is simply this…you will be known for your Difference. Have you identified your Difference from others? What do you love that others do not have the passion for? I identified my Difference many years ago when I realized I had a love for Wisdom. I did not just want to be motivated…for someone to build my hope. I needed a plan…a system. I did not want to hear everything will be alright. I wanted to know how to make things alright.
I fell in love with the Word of God as the Wisdom of God. (See Deuteronomy 4:6.) I decided to build my day around Wisdom. I felt learning was the secret to change. I realized many who had successful lives did not experience a lot of Miracles. They simply worked The Laws of God. When you apply the right Law, you receive the right Harvest.4/8/2010– 14 Questions You Should Ask
Your Work Is Important. Happiness depends on feeling good about yourself. It is based on your relationships and achievements. When your gifts and abilities are developed and utilized through your life’s work, you grow in confidence and strength. If you are unhappy at work, it will affect your family life, even your health. Take time to plan your career and life’s work.
Your work is a gift from God. “…to rejoice in his labor; this is the gift of God,” (Ecclesiastes 5:19). “The Lord shall make thee plenteous in goods…and…bless all the work of thine hand,” (Deuteronomy 28:11-12).
God has given you your life’s work to bring you personal fulfillment. It is a vital key to your self-esteem and significance. If you are investing forty miserable hours each week on a job you do not like, two hours of church on Sunday will not necessarily cure it.1. Are You Really Happy With What You Are Presently Doing? Your personal excitement and enthusiasm about your productivity each day is important. Nobody can answer this but You.
2. Is Your Present Job Actually A Short-Range or Long-Range Goal? For instance, high school or college students may not intend to work their entire lifetime at fast food restaurants. So their “after school” job is a short-range goal. They are gaining education, experience and basic financial provision. Likewise, you should clarify in your own Mind the real reasons why you have chosen to work where you are presently working or where you desire to work.
3. Are Your God-Given Gifts And Strongest Talents Being Developed? Prosperity and promotion usually come to those who totally focus on their most significant skills.
4. Are You Working Just To Pay Your Bills And Have Fun or To Truly Express A Contribution To Life And To This Work? Prominent achievers go the extra mile.
5. Do You Feel That God Is Satisfied With What You Are Doing Now? I remember one tremendous guitarist who left a nightclub band after honestly answering this question. Though he loved his music, he felt God did not want him sowing his talents in such an environment.
6. Do You Feel That You Are Doing The Highest Quality of Work That You Are Capable of Doing? Millions cultivate the habit of mediocrity in their daily duties. If you are not striving for total excellence, you have either the wrong job or the wrong attitude.
7. Do You Feel Like You Are Working “As Unto The Lord?” You must see the work you do for your boss as work you are doing for God. If not, you will soon resent your boss and the time you spend on his work. This attitude will eventually cause you to feel unfulfilled and unproductive. Seriously consider the above questions. Then, ask The Lord for His instructions regarding your career.
8. How Much Income Do You Personally Feel That You Need To Consider Yourself Financially Successful? Each of us have different needs. Some have 5X7 dreams. Others have 16X20 dreams. Neither is right or wrong. The key is to establish a true picture of your personal desires.
9. What Kind of Problems Do You Really Love To Solve? You can determine this by your favorite topic of conversation, favorite books and magazines that you enjoy. What would you enjoy talking about the most? Those things reveal your true interests.
10. What Kind of Environment Do You Find Most Enjoyable? Some people discover that they need many people around them to be most productive. Others prefer solitude.
11. What Are Your Social Needs? If your job deprives you of important relationships, it will become a source of discomfort and depression. You must diagnose the personal leisure and social needs that your happiness requires.
12. What Kind of Family Life or Time Do You Feel Is Necessary? Obviously, a bachelor schedules his life differently from a family man with five children or a divorced mother of an infant. The job that is right for you should provide adequate time for sharing with those you love.
13. What Level of Social Approval And Respect Do You Need? Each of us wants to be accepted by our friends. Never work for a company of which you are ashamed. One man admitted to me that he had no confidence in the products he was promoting. Consequently, he experienced very little success. He left that job and went to work with a company he could honestly support. It made all the difference in his happiness.
14. What Kind of Financial Future Is Necessary For Your Peace of Mind? While very few jobs offer a lifetime guarantee, every one of us needs a sense of predictable income. Tomorrow does come. You must find where God wants you to be and what He wants you to be doing, and move as quickly as possible in that direction. Paul
wrote, “With good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men,” (Ephesians 6:7).
The Questions You Ask Determine The Answers You Discover. Review these questions and your success will explode..!3/8/2010– Advice From An Australian Billionaire.
Stop Doing The Things In Which You Are Flagrantly Failing. Repetitious failure can sometimes be your signpost… telling you what you should stop doing. Throughout motivational teaching, we have often distorted a powerful truth. We have looked at failure as something to conquer, change and master. Get up and try again, is a popular concept.
There are many, many exceptions to that rule. Failure is often a clue that you are attempting something you were not created to do. Tony Robbins, the famed motivation expert, says, “Continuously evaluate the results of your efforts.” He encourages people to make the changes necessary, instead of doing the same thing again and again.
As one of my friends had lunch together with the remarkable Australian billionaire, Peter J. Daniels, told him, “Stop doing the things in which you are flagrantly failing.”Yes, persistence is a powerful key…when you are in the center of a Divine Assignment God has given to you. Perseverance is always rewarded…when it is your tenacity to complete an instruction from a supervisor. But, when you obviously lack the skills, calling or grace…let it go.
2/8/2010– Are You Qualified To Receive The Universe God Wants To Give Away?
One night, a single man was flipping through a catalog. He saw a woman with a beautiful gorgeous fur coat and he thought to himself. “Lord, I wish I had a wife to buy that for.” Then he saw a beautiful green necklace. “I wish I had a wife to buy that for.”
Suddenly The Holy Spirit spoke to him. “Now you know how I feel.” He said, “I have got a whole universe that I want to give to somebody. All I am looking for is someone to trust Me.” Knowing God…is the most important thing on earth. Understanding His nature…His heart…His desires for you is very important.
1/08/2010– Follow The Path of Favor.
The Path of Favor Is The Will of God. God has not arranged any Success outside His will. I consider Favor and Peace to be the two proofs of God’s direction. I went to buy a building one time. I made so many adaptations…so many concessions. The man was 90 something years old. He did not need any money. He did not care if he sold it or not. I was so worn out because I wanted the building so badly.Finally, before I went to sign the papers for the last time, I went to The Secret Place. (prayer room or special place in the house for prayer) I said, “Holy Spirit, I do not feel right about this. I want the building, but I do not feel right.” And He spoke and said, “There is no Favor. He has not made any concessions.”
Adaptation is an investment, and this man would not adapt to anything I wanted or needed. And God helped me assess the
absence of his Favor.Do not keep walking down a road where there is no Favor. God uses Favor as a seal…as a Verification process. Favor is a
Confirmation. Where do you see Favor?
Honor it!
Treasure it!
Protect it!
Watch over it!
Pray over it!31/7/2010– Refuse To Allow Strife In Your Home.
Strife will not go away voluntarily. You must confront it. You will never correct what you are unwilling to confront. Always name disrespect for what it is. Pinpoint rebellion and strife. Promote honor and peace in your family.
Jesus loved people. He cherished hours with His disciples. He was a listener. He was gracious and humble. He forgave. As a husband and father, you are to be the Protector and Provider of your home. You are to be the spiritual leader of your family. As a mother, you are under the authority of your husband and you are over your household. Children are to respect the authority of their parents. Even adult children are to respect and honor their parents.
Your Home Is The Master Garden of Your Life. You are the Gardener. It is your responsibility to kill snakes…pull weeds…and plant the flowers that determine the odor
and fragrance of your private world. Your Home is a serious responsibility…and eventual reward. Something you are doing Today…will decide what you experience Tomorrow.Remember this: Your Future Comfort Is Determined By Who You Are Willing To Train Today.
Mothers decide what children remember,Fathers decide what children believe.
30/7/2010– Your Life Is Whatever You Decide To Magnify.
Identify this very moment… every good gift you are enjoying.
1. EXPRESS…uncommon gratitude to God for a specific gift He has bestowed upon your life. Is it an Opportunity? Access to greatness? Good health? An incredible idea? If you are thankful, what is the proof? It may be something you normally take for granted. It may be something common. But, it is a distinct gift from God.2. Identify And Protect The Gift Of Access…To Someone Who Motivates You, Encourages You Or Protects You.
3. Remember That Your Circle Of Influence Is The Birthplace For Change. Thank God for that from them…and then go to them personally and express your gratitude for a specific quality they contain…that has exuded from their life toward you.
4. Focus Verbal And Specific Appreciation To The Person Closest To You In Your Life…For Their Difference From Others. That which becomes familiar often becomes hidden to us. What we keep seeing…we stop seeing.
Your Life Is Whatever You Decide To Magnify.
Focus Births Gratitude.
Gratitude Births Joy.
Joy Births Favor.
Favor Births Success.29/7/2010– Identify Things In Yourself That Never Change.I love to read. Magazines, newspapers, books, fiction, history, biographies. I love knowledge…information…illustrations…and anything that is worthy of reading. That has never changed. My love for Change…has never changed! Some things do change:Discoveries, Age and Opportunity guarantee your pursuit of Changes. The design of my stationary? I like it changed.My preference for colors has changed from season to season. Some of the things I eat have changed. Preferred colors in my interior decorating of my home…has changed. I like changes in my Blog. You must always differentiate between those things in you which have the most potential for change…and that which is consistent.Why? Those things which never change in you…are secrets to your Assignment, the problem you were created to solve while you are alive on the Earth.28/7/2010– Rest Is An Achievement.The rewards of rest will always equal the rewards of productivity.Rest is an Investment in tomorrow.Rest forces you to distinguish priorities from the non-essentials.Rest is your Session of Evaluation…forcing you to assess what you are doing with honesty…an investment in longevity.Rest enables you to assess the true value of everything in your life. One famous United States President refused to make major decisions after 3pm every day. Former President Bill Clinton said he made his regrettable decisions…when he was tired and fatigued. Fatigue distorts reality…and magnifies offenses and disappointments.27/7/2010– Access Is First A Reward, Then, A Continuous Test.
Every time someone allows you close to them, they expose themselves to a possible demand, request or instruction. Limited Access is necessary…to complete business transactions, delegate tasks to others and communicate your personal desires. But, Continuous Access is a Gift.
Access authorizes another to assess your true value. It is an invitation to scrutinize you, evaluate you and even disqualify you for friendship, promotion or recommendation. Access is also an opportunity to reveal your Difference, your Discerning capability, your Passion and the powerful presence of your Energy. Access Reveals. This is why I consider it life’s greatest gift to another.
Access is a Gift. And, a continuing Test. Continuous Access is a Reward…Proof of Need…Portrait of Respect and The Opportunity to Affirm Agreement. Never…Never…Never Trivialize This Irreplaceable Gift From Another.
26/7/2010– 8 Keys To Organizing Your Environment.
Order around you protects your focus and instantly dissolves guilt that disorder creates. Labor to cultivate a System for organizing a specific place for all information including your passport, important papers, warranty and guarantee papers, even your keys. One place only…for each item. Organizing requires Decision-Making…Assistance… and TIME.
Key 1. Pursue assistance. Hire Professional organizers. They are worth the investment. Invite a trusted and caring friend to assist you. Their presence creates energy.
Key 2. Never try to organize your world alone.
Key 3. Set aside one day every week…for total focus on your Organizing Project. One drawer at a time. One room at a time.
Key 4. Use see-through plastic boxes instead of cardboard. Viewing the contents easily will eliminate worry, confusion and wasted time in opening boxes to verify contents.
Key 5. Throw out anything you have not used in six months.
Key 6. Archive…anything that has emotional value to you personally. Label boxes clearly. I prefer bold printing with a black Sharpie pen.
Key 7. Play music…during your Project Day that keeps you excited and happy about “getting organized.”
Key 8. Shop for appropriate storage boxes, trays or baskets to use in your Project. I have found The Container Store to be an invaluable aid in this. Any Movement Towards Order…Generates Pleasure and Energy.
25/7/2010– When You Justify Your Conduct, You Abort Your Ability To Change It.
Self-justification is deadly. All Men Fall, The Great Ones Get Back Up. What causes a person to get back up after failure? His willingness to admit his failure. Now get this next sentence carefully…because it could change your life: The Willingness To Reach Is Proof Of Humility.The Product Of Humility Is The Ability To Change. It is impossible to change something that your heart doesn’t believe should be changed. You can only change your behavior…your conduct…your circumstances… when you believe that wrong exists.
This is the secret weapon God gives to the humble…the ability to change. God withholds the capability for change from those unwilling to admit that change is needed.
24/7/2010–The Willingness To Become Is The Master Secret To Success.
Success is a process. A moment-by-moment movement toward a desired goal. Everyone wants to suddenly be…not eventually become. Success is a process. Success involves following a person such as Ruth followed Naomi in the bible (wherever you go I go,your people are my people and your God is my God). Success requires correction, coaxing, coaching.
Remember the movie called, “The Karate Kid?” He wanted to fight in the ring. He wanted an opponent…recognition…proof of his difference. His Mentor…gave him a fence to paint and a car to wax. He resented it. Why? He did not realize the Mentor was giving him scenarios and opportunity to develop his hand movements to increase his skill…for the fights ahead.
If the present is not your Destination…It is your Season for Preparation. Becoming…is the invisible secret to Greatness. Is your desired Future great enough to require ALL of you to qualify for it?
23/7/2010–Be Realistic About your Goals
If you want to lose weight or get fit, do you have a workable plan as to how you will achieve this? If you are not going to be able to attain this with your current lifestyle and commitments, how will you change things to accommodate this new goal? You won’t be able to get fit overnight, but each day you can exercise a little more to get closer to your goal. Your goals have to be realistic.
You really can achieve anything your heart desires, but you have to have a plan as to how you will get to your goal, one step at a time. Be time sensitive. You have to have deadline or otherwise your natural tendency will be to leave it and let other things take priority. Have a date by which you can realistically get there. For example, planning to lose 2 lbs over the next two weeks is easier to implement than “losing half a stone”.
22/7/2010–Change Your Life By Developing The Courage From Within
Courage is having the nerve to put your dreams above your fears and facing what has to be done, whether it is scaling a mountain or simply saying sorry. It is being able to look deeply inside yourself to discover who you are and to keep trying when you fail. Courage is being able to take the next step in making your life better. Take a deep breath, “feel the fear, and do it anyway”. You will develop strength and maturity as you face your fears and overcome them, but be realistic too. Evaluate the dangers and consequences before you act. Having courage will help enormously in your quest to find and live your dream. Self talk is one of the most powerful tools in developing courage, Because you will not find very often somebody who would know how to talk to you properly,so the only option is- speak to yourself; like ” I can do it even if I don’t know how,I will find out” or “I’m scared but I’m going to do it anyway,I have to, I don’t have a choice” Don’t be afraid to speak to that negative voice inside you confront it, revers it and speak back with power and strength as the one who has the strength and power. As you speak each time you’ll start to feel how courage or strength whatever you need at that moment, coming to you and you will be able to accomplish incredible tasks. When you speak, try to speak loud to yourself if you can, because it will help rise your faith and believe in yourself, but even quietly is good enough, just keep speaking and reversing negative thoughts into positive, you even don’t need to think what to say,just revers everything negative into positive.
21/7/2010– “Be the change you want to see in the world.” Mahatma Gandhi
Gandhi didn’t say ask for change or tell you to believe you will see change and furthermore, he didn’t say to open up to receive change in the world. He said BE THE CHANGE.
If you are unlike what you want to attract and like attracts like, doesn’t it make sense that you won’t attract it since you are unlike what you want to attract? The only way to attract it is to become LIKE what you want to attract. The way to do that is to BE IT.20/7/2010–Do You Have The Courage To Stand Up And Be Counted?
You hate to believe in your dream enough to stick by it when the going gets tough. You have to have the courage to stand up and be counted, to defend your dream when others belittle you or fail to understand what it is you are trying to achieve. Keep your eyes on the horizon and know that what you are doing is right for you. Other people may have their own dreams, but many don’t have a dream at all.
Have the courage to be who you want to be in the face of adversity , or despite the disapproval of others. Have the determination to see it through, come what may. Be strong and independent because that is what it will take. It will feel tempting to give up at times and go back to your old ways, but never give up on something you believe with all your heart is right for you. No one else is living your unique life, experiencing your particular situation, or learning the same lessons in life as you. Only you can do it. You can’t change the world and you can’t change anyone in it. The only way to change your life is to change YOU.
19/7/2010– 3 SYMPTOMS OF THE FEAR OF LOSS OF LOVE
The original source of this inherent fear needs but little description, because it obviously grew out of man’s polygamous habit of stealing his fellow-man’s mate, and his habit of taking liberties with her whenever he could. Jealousy, and other similar forms of dementia praecox grow out of man’s inherited fear of the loss of love of someone.
This fear is the most painful of all the six basic fears. It probably plays more havoc with the body and mind than any of the other basic fears, as it often leads to permanent insanity. The fear of the loss of love probably dates back to the stone age, when men stole women by brute force. They continue to steal females, but their technique has changed. Instead of force, they now use persuasion, the promise of pretty clothes, motor cars, and other “bait” much more effective than physical force. Man’s habits
are the same as they were at the dawn of civilization, but he expresses them differently.
Careful analysis has shown that women are more susceptible to this fear than men. This fact is easily explained. Women have learned, from experience, that men are polygamous by nature, that they are not to be trusted in the hands of rivals.
The distinguishing symptoms of this fear are:—
1. JEALOUSY. The habit of being suspicious of friends and loved ones without any reasonable evidence of sufficient grounds. (Jealousy is a form of dementia praecox which sometimes becomes violent without the slightest cause). The habit of accusing wife or husband of infidelity without grounds. General suspicion of everyone, absolute faith in no one.
2. FAULT FINDING. The habit of finding fault with friends, relatives, business associates and loved ones upon the slightest provocation, or without any cause whatsoever.
3. GAMBLING. The habit of gambling, stealing, cheating, and otherwise taking hazardous chances to provide money for loved ones, with the belief that love can be bought. The habit of spending beyond one’s means, or incurring debts, to provide gifts for loved ones, with the object of making a favorable showing. Insomnia, nervousness, lack of persistence, weakness of will, lack of self-control, lack of self-reliance, bad temper.
18/7/2010–High Self-Esteem
When you have taken an honest look at who you are and worked on the areas you are not happy about, you’ll see an increase in your self-esteem. You will start to like yourself and have more self-respect. High self-esteem means you will not allow others to mistreat you and that you value yourself, your time, your dreams and your life. Healthy self-esteem is good to develop if you want to love your life,live your dreams and find happiness. Take close look at yourself today and decide what you don’t like about yourself . Take one step at a time and start improving those areas from today. If you need information-go to the library or buy on line whatever,but do something,and you’ll see very soon how your life will take new direction towards better and happier future.
17/7/2010–Integrity
Wisdom is knowing what you should do. Integrity is doing it. Our conscience and our guiding principles show us the right thing to do, and when we act with integrity we follow what is in our heart – we do the right thing. Sometimes we do not have the wisdom or experience to know what is right. Many times there is no right answer,but if we do the very best we can and follow our conscience, then we still act with integrity. if we have made a mistake, we can learn from it and do better next time, it is part of being human. Conflicts arise when we know what we should do, but we ignore or act against our intuition or inner voice. Lets live our lives with integrity and let others know us as person of integrity.
16/7/2010–Cherish your priorities in life. Stop and think for a moment over this statement. Never allow anybody to take your joy,happiness out of your life by allowing them to stop you doing things that makes you happy.
15/7/2010–A happy ex-wife is an attractive ex-wife! Never forget that
14/7/2010–You Are Hiding Your Beauty Behind Those Scars.I’m sure many of you, like me, have “scars” that make us feel that our value is less than it should be. Maybe we’ve made mistakes, been deeply hurt by someone, or possibly have hurt someone ourselves. It doesn’t make any difference whether our scars are physical or emotional; anything that varies from the accepted norm that is considered a “10″ or “perfect” by The Professional Flaw-finder Crew can make us feel that we’re not good enough, nor worthy of success or happiness.
These “scars” may be so enormous in your eyes, they successfully hide the beauty within you-or, to put it another way, you are hiding your beauty behind those scars. When you hide behind a scar, your thoughts, beliefs, feelings, and behaviors cover up that wonderful you. These scars are not real and they are not “you.” They are just representations of the struggles you’ve gone through in life. It is these struggles, however, that provide the friction we talked about earlier. They are the grist for the
mill that can ultimately motivate and inspire you to improve your life and change how you see yourself.
13/7/2010–Get Control of Your Time and Your Life
One of the benefits of personal management is for you to continually focus on those few things that only you can do, that if done well, will make a real difference at work. Simultaneously, you must be continually using your creativity, not to find ways to do more things, but to find ways to eliminate, down-size and outsource tasks that contribute very little to your life or work.
The fact is that you can only get control over your time and your life, and increase your productivity, performance and output, to the degree to which you stop doing things of low value. This is the only way that you can free up more time to do those few things that really make a difference.
Develop the habit of continually questioning every task and asking:
Does this task have to be done at all?
Does this task have to be done by me?
Does this task have to be done now?
Is there anyone else who can do this task almost as well as I can?”
Whenever possible, delegate or outsource the task to someone else so that you can focus on the few things that only you can do that will really make a valuable contribution to your work.
12/7/2010–Think On Paper
How can you increase your return on energy? Only by thinking on paper. Always have a pen in hand when you think, plan and organize. Writing things down clarifies your thinking and crystallizes your ideas.
There is something miraculous that happens between the head and the hand. The very act of writing something down activates your visual, auditory and kinesthetic senses. You see it, you sub-vocalize it, or say it to yourself, and you physically write out the words. These three modalities in combination seem to impress what you are writing deeper and deeper into your subconscious mind. This has an ever greater impact on your thinking, feeling and behavior afterwards. All successful people think on paper. All failures do not.
11/7/2010– How do you know that the woman you are dating now is the right woman for you? It’s very simple and easy to answer. A man has a fool and a king in him,the one you talk to,the one growth. So if a woman you are dating now appreciates you,compliments you,always nice to you,put’s you in front of other things in her life,listens to what you are saying and what you like,basically she does good to you all the time,that’s how you know that you are dating the right woman. The wrong woman does the opposite,she always thinks about herself FIRST.
10/7/2010–You do not need anyone in your life slip you up. These people are the exact people that will help cost your success if you allow them.
You may find it difficult to stay away from family members or friends that bring you down, but the fact is showing them tough love by staying away and averting your thoughts to positive thinking through self-talk will eventually win them over. Tough love always works, especially when you let your conduct do the walking.
09/7/2010–Strive For excellence
Remember also that striving for excellence does not mean you must be perfect. Sometimes, instead of trying something new that wasn’t sure I would be any good at, I wouldn’t even attempt starting it. I have had to learn to let go of this drive to be the best at everything I do, without of course compromising on my standards.
Focus on one thing at a time and plan your time so that you can give each task your undivided attention. Block out any distractions such as television,mobile phone,email,visitors,and so on. Ask yourself- what is more important-the goal or the distraction?
Take extreme care of yourself as being at your best, physically and mentally, will give you the energy, drive and vitality to excel. Take regular breaks. Work diligently while you at it- and then put it aside. Have regular vacations and reflect on bringing even more excellence into your life.
Learn from every experience- every situation has a learning opportunity – see problems and obstacles as opportunity to grow and excel. Learn what you can from it. learn from others and appreciate excellence whenever you come across it.
See any criticism as a gift of feedback. Of course if you have a really critical partner or boss, or you work with a particularly unhelpful colleague, then you may have to ponder deeper for the learning in the situation.
Use all available tools and resources such as computers, the internet and helpful software like accountancy packages. Get clear on what you want to excel at and you are sure to find someone or something that will help you. Focus on getting any help you can so as to excel.
Living a life full of excellence is not difficult. Simply decide right now to give it your best shot. I’m not sure who said this,but I love this phrase – go the extra mile – and remember that there is no traffic jam on the extra mile.
11/5/2010– Excellence is never an accident. It is always the result of high intentions, sincere eort, intelligent direction, skillful execution and the vision to see obstacles as opportunities.
10/5/2010– Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw o the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
“Mark Twain”09/5/2010–In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently. Action is the foundational key to all success. You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action. A real decision is measured by the fact that you’ve taken a new action. If there’s no action, you haven’t truly decided.
” Robbins, Anthony”
08/5/2010– The Word Of God Will Solve Every Problem In Your Life.
1. No Human Would Have Written A Standard As High As The Scriptures Teach. No husband would have written to treat your wife like Christ treats the church. No wife would have written to obey your husband. No teenager would have written that foolishness is bound in the heart of a child, but the rod of correction will drive it far from him. No rich man would have admitted that he that trusts in his riches will fail.
2. The Changes That Occur In Those Who Embrace The Word Of God Are Supernatural. Drug addiction has been broken. Alcoholics have been set free and delivered. Those who are violent have become meek and submissive.
3. The Very Presence Of A Bible Often Produces An Aura And Change In The Atmosphere. I have been on planes and noted an entire group of people become instantly silent when I pulled out my Bible. No novel of fiction affects men like this. Encyclopedias do not affect men like this. Lay a dictionary on a restaurant table. Nobody looks at you twice. But, lay a Bible on a restaurant table in visible view, and they will stare at you the entire meal. The
magnetism of The Word of God is indescribable, irrefutable and unforgettable.Yet, it is the Unused Weapon, the Undiscovered Map, the Untapped Well of Wisdom on earth. It is the Master Weapon provided to us by the Father to escape satanic deception and snares.
The Gospel contains two Forces:
1. The Person Of Christ.
2. The Principles Of Christ.
The Person of Jesus creates your peace.
The Principles create your prosperity.
The Person of Jesus prepares you for Eternity.
The Principles prepare you for Earth.07/5/2010– He Was Worth 400 Million And Told Me His Greatest Wealth Secret.
Years ago, at supper, my friend asked one of the wealthiest men here in Dallas, “What is the most important secret necessary to succeed in business?” His house was worth 12 million. It looked like a museum. He had survived horrendous legal battles and assaults on his character and life. Yet, he never lost the aura and fact of uncommon success.
He thought and thought. Then he responded, “The first and most important thing in a successful business is having information, accurate and enough.” Never, never stop your relentless pursuit of more information. When you think you have heard it all, you have still not heard enough. Information is the most important thing in your life. Decide the topic you want to master. Sculpture an Information System for gathering data, storing it and retrieving it.
Purchase a scanner for $100. Scan all your notes, tear-outs from magazines and even contracts…into your personal laptop computer. Keep it backed up on a storage disc in case of theft. Writing notes on 500 different pieces of paper is ludicrous. Keep all your discoveries written…in one place. It is your Bank of Knowledge.
06/5/2010–How To Persist
Even with burning desire to achieve your goals, it is to easy to give up at the first obstacle or quit because it is all taking to long. You need persistence to stay on track and belief that your efforts will be rewarded when time is right.
When you center your life on your principles, you create a solid foundation you can depend on. This has been proven to be true over thousands of years of human history. From your “center”, you have personal power and freedom and are not undermined by external circumstances. You create self-trust, and when you trust yourself, you do not rely on others or on external events. When you have inner strength and integrity, you maintain your dignity as a human being.
05/5/2010–Start Each Day With a List of Everything You Have to Do That Day.
Develop the habit of beginning each day with a list of everything you have to do that day. The very best time to make out your daily list is the night before, at the end of the working day. This allows your subconscious mind to work on your list of activities all night long while you are sleeping. Often you will wake up in the morning with insights and ideas, and answers to your problems, as a result of programming this list into your mind before you sent to sleep.
Develop the habit of setting clear priorities on your list before you begin work. Instead of hurling yourself at the day, like a dog chasing after a passing car, take a
few minutes to organize your list. Determine the tasks and activities that will give you the highest return on energy for the amount of time you invest.
04/5/2010–The key to success; in a busy society is to devote your time to only two areas during the period of time when your family needs you, when your children are between the ages of birth to about 18 to 20 years. During this period of time, you need to curtail virtually all of your outside activities. You need to focus on two major areas⎯your family and your career⎯as I have done over the years. You need to place your family’s needs above all else and then organize your work schedule so that you can satisfy those needs on a regular basis. Then, when you work, you must concentrate single-mindedly on doing an excellent job.
Most people are time wasters. They waste their own time, and they waste your time as well. To be successful and happy, you must discipline yourself to work all the time you work. The average employee works at about 50 percent of capacity. Fully 80 percent of people working today are underemployed in that their jobs do not really demand their full capacities. Only 5 percent of workers surveyed recently felt that they were working at the outside limits of their potentials. But this is not for you. You must resolve to work all the time you work. You must decide that from the time you start in the morning until the time you finish in the evening, you will work 100 percent of the time. Even if no one is watching you, you should be aware that everyone is watching you. Everybody knows everything. In every company, everyone knows who is working and who is not. Your job must be to work all the time you work. If people come by and want to chat, you simply smile at them and say, “Could we talk about this later?” Tell them that you have to get back to work.
Have a written list, and work on your list every day. Write down everything as it comes up, and add it to your list. Set priorities on your time, and be certain that you are working on the things that are most important to your boss and to your company. Refuse to get drawn into the time-wasting activities of the people around you. Work all the time you work. Remember that to be successful, you must become a monomaniac with a mission. This is true today, and it has always been true in our competitive society. To be successful at your job, you must work fast and efficiently and nonstop all the time you are on the payroll. You must become an expert at time management.
You must become so efficient and effective that you get twice as much done as anyone else. In this way, you will advance your career at the fastest rate possible, and you will also be on top of your job most of the time, and it will be unnecessary for you to take work home for the evenings and weekends. Then, when you have finished your work, you can devote your full attention to your family and to the other important people in your life. The Bible says, “A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.” One of the meanings of this is that if you are thinking about your work while you are with your family, or if you are thinking about your family when you are at work, you end up accomplishing far less in each area. However, if you are on top of your work, when you come home you can devote yourself single mindedly⎯again, like a monomaniac⎯to your relationships and to enhancing the quality of your interactions with the most important people in your life.
03/5/2010–6 Keys To Building And Maintaining A High Level Of Energy And Vitality
1. Proper weight. Carrying extra weight on your body is like carrying a pack loaded with bricks on your back — uphill. Excess weight tires you out. It taxes your heart, your lungs, and your muscles. Extra weight forces your body to burn up more energy than it normally would just to maintain life and proper functioning. On the other hand, losing weight will increase your energy level almost immediately. Your self-esteem will go up. You will feel healthier and happier. As you lose weight, you will feel a greater sense of power and personal
control. When you reach your ideal weight, you will be more effective in everything else you do.
2. Proper diet. The foods you eat have a tremendous impact on your energy level throughout the day. Changes in your diet can make you feel fresher, more alive, more alert, and filled with greater vitality than you can imagine. The way to live to a ripe, happy, healthy old age is to shift the proportions of food you eat so you are consuming more fruits, vegetables, and whole-grain products. When you get used to eating highly nutritious foods, you’ll be less willing to eat foods that are not particularly good for you.
3. Proper exercise. The more regularly you exercise, the more energy you have, the better you feel, and the longer you will live. Regular exercise enhances your digestion, reduces the number of hours that you need to sleep, and increases your vitality in the physical, mental, and emotional realms. There are three basic types of exercise: flexibility, strength, and endurance. Flexibility exercises, such as yoga, require gentle stretching of all your muscles and the articulation of each of your joints each day. The more you
stretch your muscles on a regular basis, the more relaxed, coordinated, and looser you will feel.
Strength exercises include calisthenics, weight lifting, and other exercises that build your muscles. But perhaps the most important are endurance, or aerobic, exercises. One of the keys to long life and good health is aerobic exercise at least three times per week for a minimum of 30 minutes per time. You can achieve aerobic fitness by walking, running, swimming, cycling, rowing, or cross-country skiing. The important thing is that you exercise at least three times per week — and many people say five times per week — for the rest of your life. This will affect your levels of health and energy in everything else you do. Everything counts.
4. Proper rest and recreation. On average, you need seven to eight hours of good, solid sleep each night. Some people can get by on less. But you should plan and organize your evenings so that you are “early to bed and early to rise.” Remember, nature demands balance in all things. If you are going to work hard during the day, you must take time off to rest and recuperate in the evenings and on the weekends. The more balance you have between work and recreation, the more energy you will have and the more productive you will be.
5. Proper breathing. By breathing, I mean deep diaphragmatic breathing, where you fill your lungs to the count of 10, hold to the count of 10, and then exhale to the count of 10. If you do this seven to 10 times, two or three times per day, you will be amazed at how much fresher and more relaxed you feel.
6. Proper attitude. Positive Mental Attitude seems to go hand in hand with great achievement and success in every walk of life. The more positive you are, the more energy you have. The more positive you are, the happier you are. The more positive you are, the more positive are the people and situations you attract into your life. The more positive you are, the easier it seems for you to get the cooperation of other people. The more positive you are, the more effectively you perform. On the other hand, negative emotions drain your energy, enthusiasm, and vitality. They tire you out and depress your immune system. Bouts of fear, anger, doubt, resentment, or guilt will be manifested in your physical body.
Keep your energy level high by always looking for the good in every person, in every situation. Seek the valuable lesson in every setback or adversity. Look for the equal or greater benefit that comes out of every disappointment. Be a perennial optimist. Be cheerful and positive. Be helpful and supportive. Be a source of encouragement and inspiration. Be the kind of person everybody looks forward to seeing and talking to. Every success is the result of hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of tiny efforts that nobody may ever see or appreciate. These tiny efforts, sacrifices, and disciplines accumulate to make you an extraordinary person. Everything that you do counts in some way. Nothing is neutral. Everything either helps you or hurts you. Everything either adds up or takes away. Everything either propels you toward your goal or moves you away from it. Everything counts.
02/5/2010–How to Achieve Happiness or Whatever Else You Desire
“Whenever you go out of doors, draw the chin in, carry the crown of the head high, and fill the lungs to the utmost; drink in the sunshine; greet your friends with a smile, and put soul into every handclasp. Do not fear being misunderstood and do not waste a minute thinking about your enemies. Try to fix firmly in your mind what you would like to do; and then, without veering off direction, you will move straight to the goal. Keep your mind on the great and splendid things you would like to do, and then, as the days go gliding away, you will find yourself unconsciously seizing upon the opportunities that are required for the fulfillment of your desire, just as the coral insect takes from the running tide the element it needs. Picture in your mind the able, earnest, useful person you desire to be, and the thought you hold is hourly transforming you into that particular individual… Thought is supreme. Preserve a right mental attitude – the attitude of courage, frankness, and good cheer. To think rightly is to create. All things come through desire and every sincere prayer is answered. We become like that on which our hearts are fixed. Carry your chin in and the crown of your head high. We are gods in the chrysalis.”
Elbert Hubbard
01/5/2010–five keys to increasing your visibility so that you can be more successful, faster in your career
1. Become excellent at the important things that you have been hired to do. Excellence in your chosen occupation is the primary stepping-stone to higher positions and better pay.
2. Look, act and dress the part. Become knowledgeable about styles, colors and fabrics. Dress the way senior people in your company dress. Never take anything for granted. Remember that in the area of image, “casualness brings casualties.”
3. Develop your contacts, both inside and outside the company. Always be looking for ways to give of your time and effort, as an investment, so that others will be willing to give of their time and effort to help you sometime in the future. The most successful men and women in any community are those who are known by the greatest number of other successful people. Begin with your professional
association or club, and join a local charity that you care about and that also has a prestigious board of directors.
4. Take additional courses to upgrade your skills, and make sure that everyone knows about it. Ask your boss for book and audio program recommendations. Then read and listen, and go back to your boss with your comments on what you’ve learned and to
ask for further recommendations. When your boss feels that you are eager to learn and grow, often he’ll become a mentor to you and will help you up the ladder of success. This process of being mentored, or guided, has been instrumental to the careers of many successful
executives in America.
5. Be positive, cheerful and helpful. Be the kind of person other people want to see get ahead. Treat other people with friendliness and patience, and always have a good word to say to the people you work with. In the final analysis, taking the time to become an excellent human being will do more to raise your visibility and improve your chances for promotion than will any other single thing that you can do. And you can do it if you really want to.
30/4/2010–Never Trust to Luck
An important habit for financial success is the habit of insuring properly against any risk that you cannot write a check to cover. It is amazing how many people have spent years accumulating money and then lost it all because they did not have proper insurance policies in place. Develop the habit of using what I call “worst possible option” thinking. Always ask yourself, “What is the worst possible thing that could happen in this situation?”
Whatever it is, make provisions to ensure or guard against it. Never trust to luck.
29/4/2010–What You See Is What You Will Be
The most powerful affirmation or message that you can send from your conscious mind to your subconscious mind is a visualization or mental image. Develop the habit of creating clear, positive, exciting pictures of yourself performing at your best, and of your goals as if they were already achieved. Each time you create a mental image in your conscious mind, you send a message that activates your subconscious mind, triggers the Law of Attraction, stimulates your creativity, and moves you toward the realization of that mental picture in your external world.
Positive, successful people make a habit of continually visualizing the outcomes that they desire, thereby programming their subconscious minds and shaping their self-image and their external performance. But best of all is when you combine positive self-talk with positive mental imaging. You talk about the things you want and you create exciting mental pictures of your goals and desires as if they already existed in your reality. Positive thoughts and words make you more optimistic, give you more energy, enable you to bounce back faster from disappointment and keep you moving forward throughout the day.
28/4/2010–The Race Is On.
There is a race on today, and you are in it, whether you know it or not. If you have not yet developed the habit of reading each day, attending seminars and courses
regularly and listening to audio programs in your car as you move around, somewhere, someone else is doing this. Inevitably, that person will win the race, and you will lose. The good news is that an average person, who develops the habit of lifelong learning, will eventually run circles around a genius who goes home and watches television each night. There is perhaps no habit that will more guarantee your success in life than the habit of continuous personal and professional improvement.
The pay-off in improved results in your field will be tremendous. But the best payoff of all is that you will become more positive and optimistic. You will have more energy, be more creative and be a happier person as you continue to grow and grow toward the realization of your full potential. The habit of continuous learning enables average people to become top performers in their fields. It enables people to go from rags to riches. It enables people to rise from poverty and frustration to affluence and success. Continuous learning opens every door for you. It increases your intelligence and creativity and puts you onto the fast track in your career. Continuous learning, like nature, is neutral. Anyone can use it to accomplish extraordinary things in life. It is one of the best habits you can ever develop, and the pay-off from continuous learning will last you all the days of your life.
27/4/2010– Can positive self-talk improve peoples’ lives?
Virtually any part of your life you are expecting to have physical or mental control can be improved by applying the process of positive self-talk. Usually the areas that are most easily influenced by self-talk, however, are those that involve the application of willpower or a change in peoples’ thinking and mental state. Just a few of the areas of peoples’ lives that can be and have been improved by the application of positive self-talk. Are the processes of breaking an addiction, such as gambling or smoking, the eradication of certain fears and phobias that interfere with daily lives, the improvement of one’s outlook on life and ability to cope with daily stresses, the improvement of one’s mental focus and skills, the improvement of one’s commitment to relationships, and the elimination of bad habits.
Many more areas can be worked on, though virtually anything, you can put your mind to can be accomplished with a little willpower and a bit of positive encouragement.
Positive thinking and self-talk will keep you healthier and happier by utilizing the full benefit of it.
26/4/2010–The external manifestation of high integrity is high-quality work. A person who is totally honest with himself or herself will be someone who does, or strives to do, excellent work on every occasion. The totally honest person recognizes, sometimes unconsciously, that everything he or she does is a statement about who he or she really is as a person. When you start a little earlier, work a little harder, stay a little later and concentrate on every detail, you are practicing integrity in your work. And whether you know it or not, your true level of integrity is apparent and obvious to everyone around you. Perhaps the most important rule you will ever learn is that your life only becomes better when you become better.
25/4/2010– Don’t loose any sleep over small issues- and than learn to view all issues as small issues. Ask yourself; Does this really matter?
24/4/2010–Stop Trying To Fix Things
Situations, people, and so on. Take a step back and give yourself permission to leave the world as it is. Let go of the things you cannot control. Quite often, the outcome of a situation is out of your control, no matter how well you execute a plan. Be content to do the very best you can, and than step back.
23/4/2010–Unlock Real You & Find A Good Career Mach
If you want to find a good career mach you’ve got to know what makes you tick. Don’t listen to what your friends and family think, because the only one who really knows what’s in your hart -is you. A good gauge of that is likely to motivate you in a career is what keeps you awake and interested in general life. Make a list of things you’re really into and try to think of a career that would combine them. An interest or talent doesn’t count if you haven’t got the skills to mach. Volunteer,take classes and work on honing your skills to suite the job you want. If you have strange interests or interests that are not the same as your family and friends, don’t be pressured into doing what they do. Be honest with yourself about what you like and you’ll be happier for it. Talent is important because it makes us feel good about ourselves. Chances are, you’ll probably like the things you are good at. If you don’t know what your talents are, ask your nearest and dearest for their thoughts. Consider how you relate to others- are you a born leader, well organized or good at putting people at ease? These too are important things to consider . Your work is part of your life, not your whole life, but chances are you spend more time at your place of work than at your home. Make sure you choose a job that works for you rather than being pushed into something you don’t like. If you want to find the right career, it’s important to have your finger on the pulse when it comes to new trends and how they alter the jobs on offer in the workplace. This will help you plan a career being mindful of changing technology. Read the jobs pages in the newspapers and talk to other people about what’s happening.
22/4/2010–One Day At A time
There are two days in every week,about which we should not worry, two days Which should be kept free, from fear and apprehension.
One of these days is yesterday, with all its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains.
Yesterday has passed, forever beyond our control, all the money in the world, cannot bring back yesterday.
We cannot undo, a single act we performed; we cannot erase, a single word we said, yesterday is gone forever.
The other day we should not worry about is Tomorrow with all its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise and its poor performance; Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control.
Tomorrow’s sun will rise, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise, Until it does, we have no stake in Tomorrow, for it is jet to be born.
21/4/2010–Set The Timer
If you’ve got an issue that needs discussing, try a mediator’s timing method to help clarify both sides of the argument. Set the timer for 5 minutes and take turns talking- the only rule is that during your 5 minutes your partner is not allowed to interrupt.
20/4/2010–Be Grateful
Say thank you to your partner if they make you feel good in the bedroom- good sex is like giving and receiving a gift,so saying thank you is a great way to let them know it’s appreciated.
19/4/2010–Enjoy Life
After a relationship breakdown help yourself see the positive side by treating yourself to all the things you like but your partner didn’t. This will remind you of what you were giving up relationship and what you have now regained.
18/4/2010–We all meant to shine, as children do,we are born to manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; It is in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our fears, our presence automatically liberates each other.
17/4/2010–Love Is All That Matters
If i had a magic wand.. I would change the world in an instant.I would provide food for all the starving people and share there joy. I would stop wars and bring about peace. I would show men that their enemies have the same desires,needs and wants as they do. I would bring out the love that is in everyone’s heart. I would get people to share and bask in the abundance all around us. I would encourage people to slow down and appreciate the beauty around us and in us. I would enable people to take better care of Mother Earth. After all everyone is doing the best they can. But until i find my magic wand,I will live every day of the rest of my life in such a way,that I may never need such a magic wand.
I will use the gift of this body to create a better world through my thoughts,words and actions. My mouth I will use,to spread words of encouragement,gratitude,appreciation… and never a negative word about another. My eyes I will use only to see the beauty in others.. even where it is deeply buried, I shall seek it out. My ears I will use,only to hear good about others. My hand I will use,only to enhance the world and to make a lasting contribution. Each morning I will awaken slowly,and bask in the glory of the world that is around us,and marvel at the sheer miracle of this life. Every day I shall strive to live my truth,and each day I shall spread the love that is in my hart. After all,love is all that matters.
16/4/2010–Overcoming Procrastination: Beating The Habit
What is Procrastination?
When you found yourself putting off important tasks to the last possible minute, you procrastinate to some degree. And this can be a major problem to both your personal life and your career. Side effects include missed opportunities, ability to visualize a positive future is reduced, guilty on your job and with yourself, and you get pre-occupied with the your unfinished business that leads to reduced effectiveness and maim your chances in for tenure.
The first line of defense against this bad habit is to stop procrastinating immediately and consider intelligent ways to respond! Recognize that you are procrastinating. Be honest to yourself. There are some indicators that will help you to know when you are starting this bad practice.
Priority- Try to differentiate the essential from the important tasks.
Unknowns- Rejecting the unfamiliar is one reason of procrastination.
Time- Not managing time wisely that results in putting off essential tasks.
Overload- Continually putting things off would pile thing up!
Fear of Failure- A common form of erroneous thinking that leads to
procrastination is perfectionism.
Feelings- Sometimes you’ll procrastinate because you feel tired and lazy and you
just can’t get going.
Adopt ways to fight off this deeply ingrained pattern of behavior. Use many approaches to maximize your chances to help with procrastination. Act after you plan. Always start with a written plan of action to avoid divert of attention. Be vision oriented. Your job should match your goals. Bite-sized pieces. You don’t have to tackle all the steps of a project in one sitting. Break large assignments into small tasks.
Good enough is good enough. Don’t try to do everything perfectly. Plan these project pieces daily and never push yourself too far. Remember that perfectionism often causes procrastination. Just do it. Alternate jobs which are unpleasant to you with tasks you enjoy. Set time limit. Plan around interruptions. Interruption is a natural and necessary part of life. If they can’t be prevented, learn how to delegate it. Or if they can’t be delegated, learn how to delay it. Remember to make it fun. Make the tasks and environment as pleasant as possible. Play music, have your favorite beverage, stretch out, etc.
Stay motivated. Give yourself a break, a treat, a nap– whatever is a reward for you. Putting off an unimportant task doesn’t necessarily mean you are procrastinating, it may just be good prioritization. Putting off an important task for a short period of time isn’t procrastination either. As long as you don’t delay this for more than a day and done only occasionally.
15/4/2010–The Best Time To Love Is Now. Sometimes procrastination is a legitimate response to a trivial task.But because love is what matters most,it takes top priority. Whenever we have the opportunity,we should do good to everyone. Use every chance you have for doing good.. Whenever you possibly can,do good to those Who need it. Never tell your neighbor to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now.
Why is now the best time to express love? Because you don’t know how long you will have the opportunity. Circumstances change. People die. Children grow up. You have no guarantee of tomorrow. If you want to express love,you had better do it now. The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now.
15/4/2010–Refuse to listen t0o gossip. Gossip is passing on information when you are neither part of the problem nor part of the solution. You know spreading gossip is wrong,but you should not listen to it. When someone begins to gossip to you,have the courage to say “Please stop. I don’t need to know this. Have you talked directly to that person? “ People who gossip to you will also gossip about you. They can’t be trusted.
” A gossip reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a babbler.” The fastest way to end a small group conflict is to lovingly confront those who are gossiping and insist they stop it. Solomon, King of Israel once said ” Fire goes out for lack of fuel,and tensions disappear when gossip stops.”
14/4/2010–Any growth is not automatic. It takes an intentional commitment. You must want to grow,decide to grow,make an effort to grow,and persist in growing. Nothing shapes your life more than the commitments you choose to make. Your commitments can develop you or they can destroy you,but either way,they will define you. Tell me what you are committed to,and I’ll tell you what you’ll be in twenty years. We become whatever we are committed to.
13/4/2010–Making Sure He Won’t Cheat On Me Again.
You’ve been down the road of a cheating boyfriend once. Now your main priority is to make sure he won’t be cheating again – at least not on you. You’ve probably wracked your brain trying to think of ways to be absolutely sure he “won’t cheat on me again.” There are things you can do to keep your boyfriend from getting sidetracked. But it is no guarantee that he won’t cheat, just take a few precautionary measures so you can prepare yourself if he tries to do it again. Things You Can Do To Prevent Him From Being A Two-Timing Boyfriend:
1. It’s one thing to forgive him the first time around. It’s something else to place yourself in what seems to be setting itself up as a pattern of misery in your relationship. One time can be viewed as a mistake and forgiven. More than once is a problem. You have to make him understand that it is a problem you won’t tolerate. Knowing that this fateful blow (whereas the first time might have been) will act as more of a discouragement for his cheating than most men realize.
2. Keep him coming back to your arms. Surprise him with the new things you’ve learned to do. Do the things that he loves; play video games at his house together with his brothers, movie marathon, or you can tag along with him in his basketball practice. Making the effort to love the activities that makes him happy would make you the center of his life since he will be returning the favor by also doing the things that you like. Then in a few months, you’ll be inseparable.
3. Excite him every day with new adventures. Make plans for a road trip together, in that way, you get to see new places with him. It would keep him from looking at the opposite and to avoid temptation on his part. You can both enroll yourselves in a school of baking, or ask him to be with you in a volunteer project for your community. There are a lot if activities that a couple can do that would make him fall for you even more. These are just a few tips to keep your man from cheating. Make him fall madly in love with you again.
12/4/2010–How Do You Spot The Signals In An Interested Woman?
You need to know when a woman is interested in you. You already know the signs that you should be giving out but now you need to know how to read her signs. The first is just like a man’s: body language. If she is turned in to face you and is leaning in…she is interested. Watch for her to flick her hair or play with it. Also pay attention to what her eyes are doing. If she is speaking to you but is constantly looking around the room then she is not that into you. She is scouting out other people and will probably be making an exit soon. So that is your cue to move on to someone more receptive. Another big hint in an interested woman is her casually touching you. An interested woman will find a reason to touch your hand or your arm.
11/4/2010--FIVE KEYS TO WEALTH AND HAPPINESS.
1. MUST LEARN HOW TO HANDLE FRUSTRATION. Frustration can kill dreams. You must learn to discipline your frustration. Let me tell you something. The key to success is massive frustration. Look at almost any great success, and you’ll find there’s been massive frustration along the way look at Federal Express. All successful people learn that success is buried on the other side of frustration. You have the tools to handle frustration in an effective way. ,Take the images that once frustrated you and make them wither and disappear and change them to the images that bring you ecstasy, or reframe the meaning of the things that used to frustrate you-what can you learn from them, what new opportunities for growth do they provide? etc.
2. LEARN HOW TO HANDLE REJECTION. The biggest challenge for people in our culture is that they can’t handle the word “no.” Remember the question I asked earlier? What would you do if you knew you could not fail? Remember, you have the tools to anchor yourself so the word “no” turns you on. You can take any rejection and turn it into an opportunity.
3. YOU MUST LEARN TO HANDLE FINANCIAL PRESSURE. The only way not to have financial pressure is not to have any finances. You should be able to deal with money as with anything else in your mind, with the same purpose and elegance. Learn to earn, to save, and to give.
4. YOU MUST LEARN HOW TO HANDLE COMPLACENCY. Comfort can be one of the most disastrous emotions a body could have. What happens when people get too comfortable? They stop growing. stop working, stop creating value. Ray Kroc said, “When you’re green you grow; when you ripen, you rot.”
Some complacency comes from comparison. LEARN TO JUDGE YOURSELF BY YOUR GOALS INSTEAD OF BY WHAT YOUR PEERS SEEM TO BE DOING. “Speak with good purpose only,” and “don’t major in minor things”-don’t waste your time gossiping and speculating about what’s wrong with other people. Doing that is a great strategy for becoming complacent about your own goals.
5. ALWAYS GIVE MORE THAN YOU EXPECT TO RECEIVE. This may be the most important key of all because it virtually guarantees true happiness. The key to any relationship, for example. is that you have to give first and then keep giving. Don’t stop and wait to receive.
The biggest illusion about success is that it’s like a pinnacle to be climbed, a thing to be possessed, or a static result to be achieved. If you want to succeed, you have to think of success as a process, a way of life, a habit of mind, a strategy for life.
10/4/2010–Don’t ask your kids why they’re having trouble with their algebra. Ask them what they need to do to perform better.
9/4/2010–Writing down your purposes on paper will force you to think specifically about the path of your life. Know where you are headed,and you ‘ll stay on solid ground. A life purpose statement not only spells out what you intend to do with your time,life, money,but also implies what you aren’t going to do. “An intelligent person aims at wise action,but a fool starts off in many directions”.
8/4/2010–To establish true self-esteem, we must concentrate on our successes and forget about the failures and the negatives in our lives.
7/4/2010–People become really quite remarkable when they start thinking that they can do things. When they believe in themselves, they have the first secret of success.
6/4/2010–The most influential person who will talk to you all day is you, so you should be very careful about what you say to you!
5/4/2010–SEVEN BELIEFS OF SUCCESS
1. EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON AND A PURPOSE AND IT SERVES US. ,when something good happens to us we tend to except as gift from heaven or God but when something tragic happens in our life’s most of us tend to blame God for it but it’s nor right,it doesn’t matter who is responsible-yes it is hard especially when you loose loved ones but it is not going to help us if we stay depressed or angry. We need to understand that we havn’t got 10 life’s to live but only one so why not to except what had happened,than evaluate everything and to make a decision that we are going to live our dream life and to become a person that we always dreamed off. No matter what did happen to us but it does matter what we become to what did happen to us.
2. THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS FAILURE. THERE ARE ONLY RESULTS.We need to understand this, if we have failured in whatever we tried to do it doesn’t matter but what it does matter that next time when we choose to do something we need to do our best and even if we won’t succeed do it again until we succeed,that’s how it works,never stop until you get what you want.
3. WHATEVER HAPPENS, TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. Be responsible for your actions,and if you were wrong somewhere lift up your hand and say sorry. Sometimes words are not enough,we need to take action and do something about it-actions always speaks louder than words.
4. IT’S NOT NECESSARY TO UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING TO BE ABLE TO USE EVERYTHING.
5. PEOPLE ARE YOUR GREATEST RESOURCE.
6. WORK IS PLAY
7. THERE’S NO ABIDING SUCCESS WITHOUT COMMITMENT.
4/4/2010–What Belief Is & What Good or Bad It Does to Us. Think of the story of Pablo Casals at 90-frail and arthritic, the very thought of playing the piano totally changed his state and thus the effectiveness of his body he believed in the transcendent power of his art, his music.
Beliefs deliver direct commands to your nervous system. Handled effectively, they can be the most powerful forces for creating good in your life. On the other hand, beliefs that limit your actions and thoughts can be as devastating as resourceful beliefs can be empowering. Beliefs are the compass and maps that guide us toward our goals and give us the certainty to know we’ll get there. Without beliefs or the ability to tap into them, people can be totally dis-empowered; with powerful guiding beliefs, you can see what you want and be energized to get it.
The more we learn about human behavior, the more we learn about the extraordinary power that beliefs have over our lives. There have been numerous studies in which a person in a hypnotic trance is touched with a piece of ice represented to him/her as a piece of hot metal. Invariably a blister will develop at the point of contact. What counted was not reality but belief-the direct, unquestioned communication to the nervous system. The brain simply does what it’s told through our beliefs. Norman Cousins talks about the placebo effect, and from his own illness and studying many others, concludes, “Drugs are not always necessary. Belief in recovery always is.” Belief is nothing but a state-a feeling of certainty-that governs behavior. The birth of excellence begins with our awareness that our beliefs are a choice. You can choose beliefs that limit you, or you can choose beliefs that support you. The biggest misconception people often have of belief is that it’s a static, intellectual concept, an understanding that’s divorced from action and results. Nothing could be further from the truth. Belief is the doorway to excellence precisely because there’s nothing divorced or static about it. Beliefs come from a variety of sources:
1) ENVIRONMENT may be the single most potent generator of belief-ghettos, on the one hand, supporting environments that help foster beliefs about being “special” on the other.
2) EVENTS, SMALL OR LARGE-like Kennedy’s assassination, and personal events we’ll never forget.
3) KNOWLEDGE is one of the ways to break the shackles of a limiting environment.
4) OUR PAST RESULTS-knowing you’ve already achieved the result you want before-just once is usually enough.
5) CREATE IN YOUR MIND THE EXPERIENCE YOU DESIRE IN THE FUTURE AS IF IT WERE HERE NOW-experiencing results “in advance.”
It is important to remember that the potentials we tap, the results we get, are all part of a dynamic process that begins with belief,If you start with a belief system that stresses what you can’t do, you tap a limited amount of your potential, and you take half-hearted action, tentative actions, which will probably lead to dismal results, and then what will these results do to your beliefs about subsequent endeavors? This is a classic downward spiral: failure breeds failure.
On the positive side, however, if you begin by believing with every fiber of your being that you will succeed, you’ll tap lots of your potential, take massive action, and your belief in your ability to produce even better results in the future will be affirmed. In this case, success feeds on success and each success creates more belief and momentum to success on an even higher scale. Amazingly, sometimes just not having a limiting belief is enough to ensure success, or to have an experience that disproves a particular limitation.
YOUR REALITY IS THE REALITY YOU CREATE THROUGH YOUR BELIEFS. CHOOSE THEM WELL!
3/4/2010–Feed yourself Mental Pictures. See yourself living the kind of life that you want to live. See yourself with the kind of relationships, the kind of health, the kind of car, the kind of home you really want. Visualize just before you fall asleep at night. The first thing you do when you get up in the morning is to feed yourself mental pictures. Those are the two times of the day when your subconscious mind is most receptive to new programming, when you fall asleep and when you wake up.
Action Exercises
Here are two things you can do, all day long, to keep your mind and emotions focused on your goals and financial success:
First, listen to audio programs in your car and when you travel around. Continue feeding your mind with a stream of high-quality, educational, motivational material that moves you toward your goal.
Second, resolve to associate with positive, optimistic people most of the time. Get around winners and get away from negative people who criticize, condemn and complain. This can change your life as much as any other factor.
2/4/2010–Visualize your goals. Before you sleep and the first thing in the morning, think about and visualize your goals as realities. See your goal as though it already existed. Your subconscious mind is only activated by affirmations and pictures that are received in the present tense. See your goal vividly just before you go to sleep. See yourself performing at your best. See the situations that you’re facing working out exactly the way you want them to.
1/4/2010–Keeping yourself positive- Associate only with positive, success-oriented people. Get around winners. As we say, fly with the eagles. You can’t fly with the eagles if you keep scratching with the turkeys. Get away from the go-nowhere types and above all, get away from negative people. Get away from negative coworkers. If you’ve got a negative boss, seriously consider changing jobs. Associating on a regular basis with negative people is enough in itself to condemn you to a life of underachievement, frustration and failure. Associate only with positive people. Get around winners.
31/3/2010–Women are like apples in trees.The best ones are at the top of the tree.Most men don’t want to reach for the good ones because they’re afraid of falling and getting hurt.Instead,they sometimes take the apples from the ground that aren’t as good,but easy.The apples at the top think something is wrong with them,when in reality they’re amazing.They just have to wait for the right man to come along,the one who is brave enough to climb all the way to the top of the tree.
30/3/2010–Never say I love you, if you don’t really care.
Never talk for feelings, if they aren’t there.
Never hold my hand, if you mean to break my heart.
Never say forever, if you ever plan to part.
Never look into my eyes, if you are telling me a lie.
29/3/2010– In my personal experience, your financial genius requires both technical knowledge as well as courage. If fear is too strong, the genius is suppressed. I have come to realize that for most people, when it comes to the subject of money, they would rather play it safe. I have had to field questions such as: Why take risks? Why should I bother developing my financial IQ? Why should I become financially literate? And I answer, “Just to have more options.”
28/3/2010–Many people make the mistake of thinking that all the challenges in their lives would dissipate if they just had enough money. Nothing could be further from the truth. Earning more money, in and of itself, rarely frees people. It’s equally ridiculous to tell yourself that greater financial freedom and mastery of your finances would not offer your greater opportunities to expand, share, and create value for yourself and others.
27/3/2010–The truth is that we can learn to condition our minds, bodies, and emotions to link pain or pleasure to whatever we choose. By changing what we link pain and pleasure to, we will instantly change our behaviors.
26/3/2010–The Prince of Wales, the first gentleman in Europe, invited an eminent man to dine with him. When coffee was served, what was the consternation of the others to find that the guest drank from his saucer. An open titter of amusement went round the table. The Prince lifted his eyes; and, quickly noting the cause of the untimely amusement, gravely emptied his cup into his saucer and drank after the manner of his guest. Silent and abashed the other members of the princely household took the rebuke and did the same.
25/3/2010–“Please, Madame,” whispered a servant to Madame de Maintenon at dinner, ” one anecdote more, for there is no roast today.” She was so fascinating in manner and speech that her guests appeared to overlook all the little discomforts of life.
24/3/2010–The Duke of Marlborough “wrote English badly and spelled it worse,” yet he swayed the destinies of empires. The charm of his manner was irresistible and influenced all Europe. His fascinating smile and winning speech disarmed the fiercest hatred and made friends of the bitterest enemies. (Lets learn to smile and how to speak that we would be able to change,influence life’s for the better)
23/3/2010–The monk Basle, according to a quaint old legend, died while under the ban of excommunication by the pope, and was sent in charge of an angel to find his proper place in the nether world. But his genial disposition and his great conversational powers won friends wherever he went. The fallen angels adopted his manner, and even the good angels went a long way to see him and live with him. He was removed to the lowest depths of Hades, but with the same result. His inborn politeness and kindness of heart were irresistible, and he seemed to change the hell into a heaven. At length the angel returned with the monk, saying that no place could be found in which to punish him. He still remained the same Basle. So his sentence was revoked, and he was sent to Heaven and canonized as a saint. “Bishop Fenelon is a delicious man,” said Lord Peter. borough; “I had, to run away from him to prevent his making me a Christian.”
22/3/2010–The story goes that Queen Victoria once expressed herself to her husband in rather a despotic tone, and – Prince Albert, whose manly self-respect was smarting at her words, sought the seclusion of his own apartment, closing and locking the door. In about five minutes some one knocked.
“Who is it ? ” inquired the Prince.
” It is I. Open to the Queen of England! ” haughtily responded her Majesty. There was no reply. After a long interval there came a gentle tapping and the low spoken words: ” It is I, Victoria, your wife.” Is it necessary, to add that the door was opened, or that the disagreement was at an end ? It is said that civility is to a man what beauty is to a woman: it creates an instantaneous impression in his behalf.
21/3/2010–Don’t brood over the past or dream of the future; but seize the instant, and get your lesson from
the hour.
20/3/2010–The truth of the matter is that there’s nothing you can’t accomplish if: (1) You clearly decide what it is that you’re absolutely committed to achieving, (2) You’re willing to take massive action, (3) You notice what’s working or not, and (4) You continue to change your approach until you achieve what you want, using whatever life gives you along the way.
19/3/2010–Live life fully while you’re here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You’re going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don’t try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.
18/3/2010–Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.
17/3/2010–Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.
16/3/2010–The most important thing you can do to achieve your goals is to make sure that as soon as you set them, you immediately begin to create momentum. The most important rules that I ever adopted to help me in achieving my goals were those I learned from a very successful man who taught me to first write down the goal, and then to never leave the site of setting a goal without firs taking some form of positive action toward its attainment.
- Anthony Robbins
15/3/2010–Goals are a means to an end, not the ultimate purpose of our lives. They are simply a tool to concentrate our focus and move us in a direction. The only reason we really pursue goals is to cause ourselves to expand and grow. Achieving goals by themselves will never make us happy in the long term; it’s who you become, as you overcome the obstacles necessary to achieve your goals, that can give you the deepest and most long-lasting sense of fulfillment.
14/3/2010–People are not lazy. They simply have impotent goals — that is, goals that do not inspire them.
13/3/2010– Most people have no idea of the giant capacity we can immediately command when we focus all of our resources on mastering a single area of our lives.
- Anthony Robbins-
12/3/2010–You’re in the midst of a war: a battle between the limits of a crowd seeking the surrender of your dreams, and the power of your true vision to create and contribute. It is a fight between those who will tell you what you cannot do, and that part of you that knows — and has always known — that we are more than our environment; and that a dream, backed by an unrelenting will to attain it, is truly a reality with an imminent arrival.
-Anthony Robbins-
11/3/2010–Determination is the wake-up call to the human will.
- Anthony Robbins-
10/3/2010–Great minds discuss ideas; Average minds discuss events; Small minds discuss people.
9/3/2010–If you accept your limitations you go beyond them.
8/3/2010–Look at yourself and look at those who have succeeded throughout history. Do you have what it takes? Even if you have only a few of the qualities of the other great people, you can achieve your heart’s desire. Reach for the highest, then reach higher. Accomplish your steps one by one on a daily basis, always moving forward, always making progress. Encourage yourself. Insist that you can succeed and affirm these thoughts daily. Keep a sense of proportion and judge for yourself. Then keep busy at the tasks you’ve set out to accomplish. What’s keeping you?
“Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration,” said Albert Einstein. Find inspiration wherever you can. Talk to people; read about people; learn your business or craft. Believe that you can do it and you will. The only way to dispel the doubt that you can do something is to finish it. Always be the best you can be. Never fall short from fatigue or lethargy. Don’t attempt to do anything that you can’t give your all to. There is no way to inner satisfaction without appealing to the higher consciousness. Search within and without to find the paths that are meant for you and follow them with conviction and a steady heart. And, you will succeed to become as rich and full as you ever desired. Harold Ickes wanted the “freedom to live one’s life with the window of the soul open to new thoughts, new ideas and new aspirations.”
7/3/2010 Not all success can be counted in dollars; not all richness is measured by money. “The great secret of success is to go through life as a person who never gets used up,” said Albert Schweitzer. Retire upon yourself and look for the ultimate cause of things inside you. Look within yourself for the ultimate inspiration, and follow the true feelings you discover. “One of my favorite methods is to whisper,” said Alfred Hitchcock. “I’ve discovered the best work is done with sweet reason.” Act upon your own conscience -that guides; that judges your actions and signals your behavior. “Conscience is the inner voice that warns us that someone may be looking,” wrote H.L. Mencken. Accomplish what you desire; fulfill your inner yearnings. But don’t compromise your deepest feelings. “We do our best that we know how at the moment, and if it doesn’t turn out, we modify it,” said F.D. Roosevelt.
Follow the paths that life offers you and live the fullest existence you can.
6/3/2010–The law of success is as definite as the laws of any science. The exact use of this law will produce results every time. It is results that count; and as results may be multiplied indefinitely by a persistent application of this law, there is no ending to the success you can enjoy. Great things are no less possible than small things, and it is the great things that will follow whoever uses the law with faith and understanding. Whatever your present state or condition may be, there is a better and a larger future in store for you, but you must prepare yourself for it. You cannot rise into the better and greater things unless you DO SOMETHING about it. Study, planning, and effort are all necessary. The young and the old alike are entitled to advance. To be true to yourself and to the Law which governs you, you simply must advance, for advancement is success. It is the Law?s intention that you shall move forward. You can stand still, and you can go backward, thus retarding your normal progress for a while, perhaps as long as a life time, but in the end you will be compelled to move forward, especially in the direction of soul?s growth.
How to raise yourself from failure to success ? just by focusing on your hobbies. HINT: You need to do this innovative activity in your spare time for this to work.
5/3/2010–SEIZE THE DAY
People are judged by what they think and what they say. But the true measure of their character is what they do. Anyone who has achieved success and fortune in the world has done it by action. William Jennings Bryan wrote, Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved. The choice of the path you follow is often put before you as opportunity. Few people recognize opportunity, said Cary Grant, “because it comes disguised as hard work.” Don’t let opportunities slip past while you’re still considering them, and create new ones as you see them. Wise people make more opportunities than they find, said Francis Bacon. What opportunities can you act upon? Woolworth saw a need for small inexpensive items and opened the chain of stores that grossed billions. Wrigley started giving gum away as a bonus from a supplies wagon
he sold from, and saw the opportunity to make money from the gum that became in high demand. All successful people the world over have found the opportunities for their own special talents and acted upon those ways to achieve. Why wait for the time to pass? There’s never a better time than now. “Sometimes,” wrote Lewis Carroll “I believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast. ” Take your own impossible dreams and make them become reality.
4/3/2010–TAKING RESPONSIBILITY
The price of greatness is responsibility, wrote Winston Churchill. Are you willing to take the responsibility once you attain the success you desire? “The deepest personal defeat suffered by human beings is constituted by the difference between what one was capable of becoming and what one has in fact become,” wrote Ashley Montague. And the greatest tragedy is to become less than your full potential, using less than the abilities you have to work with. Are you waiting for something to happen? Maybe you’re waiting for a job offer, or a promotion. Perhaps you’re waiting until you get good enough at a craft or skill. Or are you waiting for the inspiration of creativity to strike your life?
It is up to you to take the actions and be responsible for their consequences. “Our responsibility: every opportunity, an obligation; every possession, a duty,” wrote John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Inspire yourself. Read books that will spurn you to action; talk to people who have the vitality you admire. How would you like to lead your life? And make the changes necessary to be like that. “There is nothing permanent except change,” wrote Heraclitus. What changes do you want to make? What are you waiting for?

19/2/2010–Live life fully while you’re here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up!

Don’t try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.

9/2/2010–Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw o the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
