ARTArticle12 Easy Steps to Create Positive Self-Talk Leading to Your SuccessHave you ever noticed a trend in the thinking patterns of successful people? Have you ever wondered why it seems like success comes so easily to some people and so difficult for others?
It all has to do with your beliefs and self-talk.
People that achieve success in a consistent basis have one thing in common. Whether they are successful athletes, executives, business owners, or artists, they all know that they will succeed. They know this before they even attempt to achieve the goal they set out for themselves.ARTArticle2 Ways to Release Yourself From Being SmallThis is something that happens in American schools. You probably remember the "smart kid" and you, I am sure, also remember "the dumb kid." How does this happen? Kids spend a great deal of time in Theta and very easily bend to suggestion from respected adults.
It happens from the messages that parents and teachers give the students in their classes. There was a study done where the class records were changed around before the teachers were able to read them.ARTArticle2.3. Prepare for Action: TalkYou are about to change the total direction of your life. You are going to move from a life of relative idleness to one of ambition and perhaps even sacrifice and the transition can be scary. You need to talk.
Some people will think you are nuts if you declare your intention to make a difference with your life. You probably do not need therapy, but you do need to discuss your thoughts, aspirations and conce
s with someone who will listen.ARTArticle2.4: Listen: How to Receive Advice“Do not under any circumstances leave for Africa without sufficient funds raised to sustain you for at least three years.” That was the advice given me by a seasoned missionary as I considered taking my young family to Africa. It was good advice.
We saw how good it was when we arrived in Lusaka Zambia and spent some time with a missionary couple who left for Africa before they had sufficient funds. We saw them struggle so were thankful we listened to the advice given us.ARTArticle2.5. Prepare for Action: Establish Principles“Would you like to know a quick and easy way to disce
right from wrong?” I asked the students in a college class I was teaching. Every head bobbed enthusiastically up and down indicating they were interested.
“Before I tell you, let me say this.” I paused as the room went silent. The students leaned forward as I spoke in almost a whisper, “You already know right from wrong.”ARTArticle2.6: Prepare for action – PLANHave you ever ridden in a multi-million dollar executive jet?
My brother has been a professional pilot all his life. I once flew with him from Colorado to Florida in one of the most technologically advanced executive jets ever built. He had been flying this magnificent airplane and his billionaire employer all around the world. He was thoroughly trained and had hundreds of hours of experience flying this particular aircraft. Yet, without fail previous to take-off, he and his co-pilot always went through a predetermined checklist.
I asked him why.ARTArticle2.7 Prepare of Action – Count the CostDo you know the difference between price and cost? The terms “price” and “cost” can be confusing. The two terms are related, but quite different.
The price is the amount you pay for a product or service. When you pay a price for something, the price represents the value of what you give up in order to purchase the product or service. The cost is the amount spent by the business to make the product or deliver the service.
Let’s say you want to buy a candy bar.ARTArticle2.8 Prepare for Action Set Real PrioritiesWould you like a simple definition of priorities? Here it is: The things that matter most. That may be far too simple a definition for a time management expert, but many books, blogs, songs and poems use that definition.ARTArticle3 Magic Words That Work Better Than Any AffirmationIf you have ever been really stuck, trying to use affirmations but just end up feeling more and more frustrated, you are going to love what you read here right now.
I used to love affirmations. I used to use them day and night Sometimes they seemed to work excellently, sometimes I wasn't so sure. And when life took a turn for the worse, I tried to use them again. But for some reason while struggling to pay the bills, struggling to stay positive, and struggling to stay afloat, they just didn't feel like they were working as well for me as they did before.ARTArticle3 Simple Sentences That Create Permanent ProsperityIn just a moment, you are going to discover why these 3 simple sentences create permanent prosperity, and how to use them to dial your success up a few levels higher. Let's dive in.
“You did it!”
“Congratulations mate!”
“Great job, good on you!”
Why is it that CONGRATULATORY CONVERSATIONS like this instantly change how you think, how you feel, and help you manifest what you want in your life?ARTArticle3 Steps To Manifesting with Neville GoddardThis week, we are going to explore a simple THREE STEP method of Neville Goddard’s, and those common mistakes that people make with each step – so that you can stop making them today, and not make them in the future. This can’t help but help you speed up your success.
“THE FIRST STEP in changing the future is Desire, that is, define your objective — know definitely what you want." – Neville Goddard
So let’s explore the Mistakes People Make in this first step.
The First Mistake Most People Make: They don’t define what they want – in a SIMPLE AND DEFINITE way.ARTArticle3 Steps To Manifesting with Neville Goddard - Part 2Today, we continue to explore the simple THREE STEP method of Neville Goddard’s, and the common mistakes that people make.
So let’s do a quick review with Neville and dive into the second step today.
“THE FIRST STEP in changing the future is Desire, that is, define your objective — know definitely what you want. SECOND: construct an event which you believe you would encounter following the fulfillment of your desire – an event which implies fulfillment of your desire – something which will have the action of Self predominant.” – Neville GoddardARTArticle3 Steps To Manifesting with Neville Goddard - Part 3Welcome back to the final part of 3 Steps to Manifesting with Neville Goddard.
In Part 1, we covered how to DEFINE what you want – and how to do that effectively. (And how that is very different from goal setting.)
In Part 2, we explored how to create the DETAILS – so that you don’t get bogged dow
THINKING about your outcome – and actually start FEELING and manifesting it.ARTArticle3 Steps To Over Coming FearARTArticle3 Things You Must Do If You Want a Sexy VoiceHave you ever noticed that the best speaking voices in the business are deep, rich, and warm? Think of those actors – both men and women – who are known for having a great sound. Who is your favorite? James Earl Jones or Sean Connery or George Clooney? How about Angelina Jolie, Felicia Rashad, or Kathleen Turner? All of these voices are deep in pitch – not high.
One of the greatest and definitely the sexiest of the voices was the late Barry White. Whether the man was speaking or singing, his voice was incredibly sensual and one of the most alluring sounds I’ve ever heard.ARTArticle3 Tips to Make More Money by Managing Your TimeDo you want to make more money? If so, you are like most Americans today. The latest surveys show that money is the most common conce
for people. They report that finances have a huge effect on their levels of stress. Instead of constantly worrying about your lack of funds, think about how you are managing your time. When I start working with a new client, one of the first things we consider are their time management skills. Regardless of what their goals are, they will be more difficult to achieve if the client isn’t focused and hasn’t prioritized the steps they need to take.ARTArticle3 Ways To Increase Your Self-Worth So You’re More Positive & PersuasiveIt happens too often for too many of us.
You fail to get something you really want…because, at the crucial moment, something inside you doubts you’re able to pull it off.
Right?
You know that aching feeling…and the results of that.
This leads to a variety of situations like:
• Not getting that job you so want after being interviewed
• Not getting the promotion you so want
• Not getting the pay rise you richly deserve
• Not getting invited to an event or a party you really wanted to go to because of the people you really wanted to meet thererARTArticle3.0: Protect Your Mind – Section 3 IntroductionYour mind is the singularly most powerful tool for success that you own. It is powerful beyond measure and more valuable than the combined wealth you could ever earn in your lifetime. So, like anything of value, you must protect your mind.
But protect your mind from what? From the six enemies of your mind, that's what. They are: disinformation (lies), depravity, garbage, shallowness, self-criticism and ignorance. Each of these enemies will be dealt with over the next few editions of this column. Here is a brief over-view of each of them:ARTArticle3.2 Protect Your Mind from DepravityDo you watch those mystery documentaries where they take a crime and re-live it, then follow through to the capturing of the perpetrator, his/her trial and ultimate incarceration? We do.
One especially gory episode we started to watch featured a variety of hideous acts that led to the brutal deaths of a whole family. Before the story got too far along I grabbed the remote control and shot it toward the TV with great vigor, pressing the OFF button.ARTArticle3.3: Protect Your Mind from Garbage“Take out the garbage!” was a command my mother shouted at me when I was a kid. Today I stuff much of it down the garbage disposal; hit the “on” switch for a few seconds and it all goes down the drain. The rest I wrap tightly in a Walmart grocery bag, place it in the garbage can out back, and once a week a big truck comes by and hauls it all away.
Why take out the garbage? Because it is not worth keeping and I don’t want it to rot, stink and spoil everything else in my refrigerator. Oh that we would do the same thing for our minds: take out the garbage, and for the same reasons.ARTArticle4 Ways to Grab the Attention of Your AudienceGaining your audience's attention at the beginning of your presentation is crucial for two reasons: your audience will remember the first things you say (primacy effect), and they will decide to stay engaged with you. Here are 4 ways to start your presentation on the right path for engagement.ARTArticle4 Ways You Can Benefit From Having A Coach And MentorLast weekend I was in Tampa, Florida for the first of several in-person events as part of a year long EnergyRich® Elite Mastermind Group I joined. The group and the event was unbelievably spectacular and I felt it was a great time to write a bit about the benefits of working with someone (or a facilitated group) who can be a coach and mentor to you along your journey.
First let me share with you that I did not take joining this group lightly. It is the most significant investment of time and money I have made to a program in my life (and that's saying something).ARTArticle5 Ingredients For Your Wellbeing In 2015A new year brings with it new possibilities. It’s a chance to start over (again). We set goals, make resolutions to end harmful behaviors and learn healthy ones.
Consider adding these 5 ingredients for your wellbeing in 2015:
1. What gives your life meaning? Are you involved with something or someone you love that goes beyond yourself? Is it your work, a social cause or an idea that lives in your mind that needs to be put into action? What will live after you? A cause, a charity, a pet — what makes you happy? Do you need to cultivate more of this in 2015?ARTArticle5 KEYS TO EMPOWERMENT & ENERGY.Have you ever felt like you needed to get something done, and you didn’t have the internal resources to get it done?
We all have had that feeling at some point of our lives. Perhaps it was a combination of internal resources and exte
al support that you needed. Either way, the task at hand would be done much easier if you had whatever you required to get it done.
My goal is to give you some very simple, yet effective tools to gain and sustain more empowerment and energy in your life.ARTArticle5 Secrets to Overcoming FearWhat’s holding you back from having the life or career you want? The answer for over 50% of my clients is overcoming fear. This can show up in a variety of ways from doubt, worry, and anxiety. Maybe you’ve been told negative, put-downs over and over again by other people. Or perhaps you’ve tried reaching a goal before and failed at it. It’s completely normal to be afraid in some circumstances, but you have a choice in how you let those thoughts shape your actions.ARTArticle5 Steps For A Productive And Purposeful 2015.A very happy new year to you! I hope that you really enjoyed the Christmas season with family and friends.
Seeing that now things are getting back to the normal routine (people are going back to work, and children are preparing to go back to school), we must focus on what we can do to make the year ahead a productive and purposeful one.
Now, I won’t give you the ‘stock standard’ advice about the new year – make a resolution, stick to it, and encourage others to stick to their resolutions.ARTArticle5 Steps To Providing Support To Others.In my experience through working with youth and with people with mental illnesses (such as depression), I have discovered that support from a human being can go a very long way in creating positive changes.
This also applies to the workplace and at home. Support can be very uplifting in showing a person the possibilities that they may not be able to see by themselves.
In many of my speeches (be it in the corporate world or at schools), I have said “You can get more out of a person by lifting them up, than by putting them down”.ARTArticle5 Ways to Leverage Your Personal Brand for Greater Career SuccessNew times demand new solutions, and with most professionals fearful of corporate downsizing or restructuring measures, personal branding methodologies are more critical than ever. Organizations have to navigate to survive in today’s new business climate, and so do top leaders and high achievers.
How to differentiate yourself from peers and competitors is the question, and personal branding is the answer. Here are five key insights into why individual executives need to discover and market their own personal brands – just as large organizations must market their corporate brands.ARTArticle7 Myths of a Raw Foods DietThe more I travel, talk to people, answer their questions about raw foods, I find that there is a block or a challenge when it comes to eating more raw foods. Most of the time, people have bought into the myths of a raw foods diet and therefore they avoid it all together. Once when I was in Chicago, one woman told me that fresh food costs too much money and she could only afford to eat canned fruits and vegetables.ARTArticle7 Steps To Goal SettingSetting goals and achieving goals is something that most of us want. The key is to differentiate between a goal and a mere wish. A wish is something that people dream about. A goal is accompanied with a plan and a time line.
My definition of the word goal is:
G.O.A.L – Getting Over All Limitations.
So, here are my 7 steps to goal setting:r
