ARTArticleOptimism Optimizes Your PerformanceUnderstanding optimism is important to elevating your performance. Finally, the power of feelings and emotions are beginning to be openly discussed within the context of science, business, and leadership. Historically, the term "touchy feely" has been used to dismiss important aspects of ourselves that we were not comfortable dealing with. We perform at our best when we approach performance from a holistic perspective.ARTArticleOur destiny is written before us in the stars...*****Our destiny is written before us in the stars...***** Astrologically, we now have gathered our harvests & we are entering a time to review those seeds that germinated well & those that maybe need to be let go off before they bring down the rest of our well nurtured crops. Astrologically speaking, Mercury turns retrograde on 7th of September & stays that way until 29th, this will help us greatly in reviewing our crops all over September as Mercury normally goes into storm a few days prior & after (storm is where it appears to speed up & become chaotic). Most people groan when they fin ARTArticleOur EnergyOur vibration level changes with the energy that surrounds us. Everything has energy; the past, present and future all have energy of their own. You choose what type of energy you bring forth from an event. For an example, let’s look at a hurtful experience as a bucket full of water. A sponge represents you. Each and every time you go back to the past and re-live your experience you are putting that sponge in a bucket full of water and carrying it with you. Now, wring out that sponge, this symbolizes releasing all the negativity associated with the event.ARTArticleOut Of The Blue BailoutWhat are you gonna say? I was caught between a rock and a hard place the other day. It was with a person I've got a certain debt with that I've been working with—which is a business debt. No issue, cash flow management, the rest of the stuff—but we've never called him and said, "Hey, it's tough economic times, we're having hard times." We've never been, to my knowledge, late on a payment—and again, with the ebb and flow and flux of business, the U.S. Postal Service, etc., I don't consider a few days or even a couple of weeks late.ARTArticleOve ight Success is a MythImagine for a moment the struggle and doubt the Wright brothers faced as they made attempt after attempt to create a “flying machine”. They financed their scheme with the proceeds from their bicycle shop, they toiled after work hours in oblivion. Later, when the brothers started to have some success with their flying efforts and gained notice from the press, Europeans accused them of lying. Others ridiculed them. It was a harebrained scheme and there were plenty of others with far more resources than they. What gave them the audacity to think they could out maneuver Dr.ARTArticleOvercome Your Fear to Achieve Effortless SuccessOver the last year, increasing numbers of regular readers of my weekly Ezine have pointed out that, in the current economic environment, it is very difficult to “keep your head” whilst everyone around you is losing theirs. (I should point out that they’re grateful to me for the weekly opportunity to pull themselves together!) In other words, it can be very difficult, when faced with the reality of losing your job, losing your life savings or losing your home, to believe that simply changing your mind will change your life. Surely, there’s simply too much evidence around us at the pr ARTArticleOverview of Universal LAWSome of you may have studied the topic of powerful Universal Laws. These laws are working whether we are aware of them or not much like the law of gravity or electricity. First we must understand that the universe operates in an orderly manner-with precision so the earth stays rotating in a certain path and does not collide with other planets or our sun which would of course have catastrophic results. We see this also in nature….nature is orderly even when there are storms, typhoons, hurricanes earthquakes, etc, there are predictable patterns.ARTArticlePeak Performance: The New Norm for Tough TimesIn today’s economy and competitive workforce there is no room for mediocre skills. Gen X & Gen Y are competing for the same jobs as baby boomers. Gen X & Gen Y bring all kinds of digital know- how to the job table. Baby boomers bring years of experience. The younger generations have no clue how to communicate with people (it’s text, Twitter or nothing). Baby boomers are behind the curve when it comes to technology thingies (whatsa widget doo hickey?) So who gets the job? Sadly, many times it’s the youth.ARTArticlePersonal Development: What's the 'Self' in Self-Actualization?I was listening to a video by an author where he defined 'self-actualization' in terms of ego or selfish individualism - a type of narcissism. This goes to show the limitations of language and how meaning can be confused. The 'self' in self-actualization, in my mind, is just the opposite. It is the freedom from the mental constructs of the ego-self. And it's an ancient concept.ARTArticlePersonal Success Comes from MindfulnessWhether it is on the field of professional sport or in the Buddhist temple, you will find exponents of the art of mindfulness. Mindfulness - the exact opposite of mindlessness - is the only key you need to unlock a life of peace, calm and effortless success.ARTArticlePitfalls of Fast Growth & How to Avoid ThemIt’s great news if your business is growing quickly! But will things move so fast that you’ll struggle to keep pace? It’s a real possibility – so we better give it some thought. Knowing the potential pitfalls in advance and understanding how to mitigate them can go a long way in writing a successful growth story. Pitfall #1: You may hire too many bad employees or misfits ARTArticlePlan the Work . . . Work the PlanIntroduction Zig Ziglar: “You need a plan to build a house. To build a life, it is even more important to have a plan or goal.” When I came to real estate sales from the safety net of the public school system where life is routine and income guaranteed, I was in for a rude awakening. I knew I was going to be good in sales but I had no idea I’d have to learn how to plan and manage time. Oh, and then there was goal setting and attitude adjustment. So when I speak with you about having a plan and working the plan, it comes from my real life experiences.ARTArticlePlaying with Other People’s LivesFirst of all, we all know what the title means – children’s lives toyed with by teachers, children bullied in the schoolyard and employees bullied in the workplace. We’re all aware of domestic violence, psychological violence in the home and the workplace and the manner in which Governments play with people’s lives probably demands a whole article – or book – of its own.ARTArticlePosition Yourself For A Market RecoveryPosition yourself for a market recovery. Hey come on—don't buy into the prevailing sentiment. This is the stuff that Getty and Rockefeller talk about. When 80% of the people think everything is going to get worse and it's crashing, and there's no light at the end of the tunnel, when 80% of the people are believing that—it's time to buy! It's time to get active. There will be a market recovery. Don't take my word for it; take all of recorded history for it. Business cycles come and go.ARTArticlePosition Yourself For A Market RecoveryPosition yourself for a market recovery. Hey come on—don't buy into the prevailing sentiment. This is the stuff that Getty and Rockefeller talk about. When 80% of the people think everything is going to get worse and it's crashing, and there's no light at the end of the tunnel, when 80% of the people are believing that—it's time to buy! It's time to get active. There will be a market recovery. Don't take my word for it; take all of recorded history for it. Business cycles come and go.ARTArticlePositive Dialogue Leads to Weight LossThe key to eating well and maintaining a healthy weight is learning to embrace a positive attitude about your unique body type. Once you establish tools to incorporate self talk of acceptance, understanding, and forgiveness eating becomes a secondary focus rather than an all consuming pattern in your daily choices. Acceptance is the beginning to losing weight today. Look in the mirror and be honest.ARTArticlePositive Mental Attitude – Exploding the MythWhat’s the difference between positive thinking and positive mental attitude? Because, as far as I can figure out, positive mental attitude is just a fancier name for a way of thinking that is becoming increasingly discredited. Your attitude is created by your subconscious mind – the part that stores your belief systems – your beliefs about how the world works and your place in it.ARTArticlePossess a Burning Desire for SuccessA BURNING desire is one of the most important success factors; perhaps the first key to success. To have desire is one thing, but to have a burning desire is another thing entirely. All success stories begin with a burning desire. The extent to which you succeed in any endeavour is largely influenced by certain success factors, and in this case – the intensity of your desire. Your desire for what you want to achieve must be so strong that you would find it hard to sleep at night; you literally lose sleep over it.ARTArticlePower To Set Yourself FreeThis posting is about forgiveness. I don’t know about you, but most of the time when I have seen forgiveness addressed it involves the actions of two or more persons. This posting will take a more focused view where it mainly involves action of a single person. Part of improving oneself leads to becoming powerful. Part of how power is used is improving your quality of life and the life of those around you. Let’s talk about the relationship between power and forgiveness.ARTArticlePrepare Yourself For WealthThank God it usually takes time to get rich. Those who are ove ight sensations often go bankrupt. Well, often enough to worry those of us who plan to get rich, slow or quick. Still, lottery winners and those who have received large inheritances have squandered their wealth often enough to have made that process a proverb. So then, it takes time to get rich, so what's the problem?ARTArticlePrequalified MLM LeadsOne popular program to get generating quality prequalified MLM leads you can employ for your multilevel marketing business is MLM Lead System Pro. MLM Lead System Pro is a tool for systematically developing your networking business as well as your prequalified MLM leads. It supplies you education and coaching in implementing a business that pays upfront commissions as you increase passive profits. It coaches you how to build a successful organization with the web, using methods like email autoresponders, social networks and additional web methods.ARTArticleProductivity and Performance: The Myth of Hard WorkDoes success require stress and hard work as a means to reach your goal? I say no, and there is even objective neuroscience to support my belief and experience. "Hard work and stress" is a type of paradigm or mindset. I have had conversations with several people over time regarding whether obtaining peace of mind was a hazard to ambition. I have read articles that argue that if we become peaceful we will become complacent. It is this type of belief that drives hard work as a social construct.ARTArticlePsychology of Success: What Can Business Owners Learn from Christmas?As we approach the final week of wrapping up another year we will soon (if not already) assess how well we did in achieving our business goals. If you hit a home run this year in your business, it’s not hard to be joyful in this season of Christmas. However, if these last twelve months reflected nothing more than a disappointing series of strike outs, I know it’s pretty tough to feel joyful even during this holiday season. If that’s you, here’s where the psychology of success matters now more than ever. In fact, Christmas can teach us a critical lesson on that psychology of success.ARTArticlePush Thru the Winter Blahs and Get In Your Zone!Imagine the patience Thomas Edison must have had. He reputedly failed 10,000 times before he perfected the incandescent bulb. For 13 years he feverishly worked on it.ARTArticlePut The S.M.A.C.K. Down On Your Goals Today!Sometimes I just want to walk up to people, smack them in the face and say "WAKE UP! You can live an extraordinary life!" Okay, so maybe I don't really want to smack them, because I'm not at all a violent person. However, I do want to put the S.M.A.C.K. down on them. Because most people just go through life, living a good life. So how is it that some people live extraordinary lives?ARTArticlePUTTING THE POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY MOVEMENT IN PROPER PERSPECTIVEPUTTING THE POSITIVE PSYCHOLOGY MOVEMENT IN PROPER PERSPECTIVE “Happiness is not a goal, but rather it’s a byproduct.” ~Eleanor Roosevelt. This quote by Eleanor Roosevelt puts a lot of things in proper perspective, especially the popular movements for change driven by the mass media marketing machine, such as positive psychology.ARTArticleQuick and Simple Conflict Resolution TipsIn all of our team relationships, we know and expect that there will be conflicts to work through. Conflicts are normal and a natural part of everyone’s life. They are the simple disputes and disagreements that occur between us all. Most of the time we think of conflict as negative, but without conflict we don’t experience growth or progress. As well, in life you are going to find that your team may experience some conflict as they attempt to unify and reach their goals.ARTArticleRadical Life Improvement From NothingTB Wright It seems as if we all desire to improve our lives. But in order to do something, we have to first understand what exactly, that something is. Since we desire to improve our lives, what does that mean? Improve? According to the dictionary, it means "to increase in value, to bring about a more desirable or excellent condition." Since the specific details for each one of us that we would have to bring about in order to do that, are different, then to each one of us, to "improve" means something different!ARTArticleReach Out and ConnectThis is the first in a series of articles to help you improve your communication skills and establish stronger relationships at all levels. A lot of stress and angst can be removed from our lives if we can learn to effectively communicate. Communication is far more than words; it involves body language, eye movement, contact and actions. In total silence it is possible to convey a message of aggression, love, anger, fear or intolerance. Great communication is when the physical, mental and verbal activity is all in one state.ARTArticleReach Out and Connect – Impact of ConnectionThis is the second in a series of articles to help you improve your communication skills and establish stronger relationships at all levels. A lot of stress and angst can be removed from our lives if we can learn to effectively communicate. When we meet someone we are given a short time in which to reinforce the physical impression we made, by using good communication skills.
