ARTArticleStrategies for Effortless Business SuccessWhat a strange title for an article given all the gloom and doom that's doing the rounds at present! Most interestingly, how did the word "Effortlessly" get into the title? Surely, hard work is a virtue, God loves a try-er and you have to work hard to be a success. All these statements are wrong. I've been working with big business leaders and business owners - large and small - for over thirteen years.ARTArticleStretch Your ImaginationThe visionaries who paved the way to where we are now must be commended for their work. They took a dream, a simple dream; they took the time to map out all the different possibilities to set their dream in motion. They stretched their imagination as far as it could go, and it worked out great for them. Sure, there might have been a few dreams that didn’t turn out as planned, but in the end, they watched their dreams transform into a life of their own.rARTArticleSuccess Built On Common SenseSuccess Built On Common Sense Byr Bill Cottringer “Common sense is the simple knack of seeing something the way it is and doing something the way it should be done.” ~Mark Twain. Is it just my imagination or is common sense being bred out of the human gene pool entirely? Some say the magnitude and complexity of today’s problems confronting us requires a super human “higher consciousness” to solve. I disagree and prefer to assign the best potential solution to our problems on to common sense.ARTArticleSuccess Esteem: Do You Have Enough of It?You work so hard to create the life you dream of living, but do you have enough Success Esteem to actually allow all that goodness into your life? Over the years, I have seen far too many highly competent and highly confident people work tirelessly to create success, and yet when success "comes a knockin" they consistently find a way to sabotage it and "make it go away". In my 10+ years of coaching work I have found that having self-esteem does NOT ensure success esteem! Although success is inorganic, I have seen much evidence that - like people - success has "feelings".ARTArticleSuccessful Manifesting: How To Do It!There is in popular writing, and so in people's minds, some confusion over the distinction between creating and manifesting. These words point to two separate and important processes, and so, do not point to the same thing at all. Some of this confusion comes over the fact that the things that we desire to either create or manifest, are the same! But the processes we are using these words to describe most certainly are not. Using them interchangeably would be like using "baking" and "buying" as if they were one and the same action.ARTArticleSurvivorI have to admit that I struggled writing this article, it is very personal to me. My struggles weren’t with myself, but in knowing that others are struggling and fighting for their lives at this very moment. October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month and Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I am a survivor of both. My heart goes out to all the men and women that are affected by these. One day there will be a cure for breast cancer and one day there will be an end to the violence against women and children.rARTArticleSymbols of the Human BrainsToday I would like to share an inspiring way of seeing ourselves. As we know, human beings have an amazing brain and its potential has not yet been fully discovered. It is subjected to always new studies and experimentation. The human brain is a mystery. Stil some great human beings seem to be able to use a much greater part of it than the average person.ARTArticleSynthesize and Simplify Your Way to Job and Relationship SuccessSynthesize and Simplify Your Way to Job and Relationship Success Byr Bill Cottringer I will make two bold statements that I am confident will get 100% agreement. And that is always a good starting point to build upon to make things better at work or in relationships. These two agreeable statements are: (1) We are all getting overloaded with too much information, and (2) Communication between people could be a lot better. Yes, yes so let’s not waste words and move on.ARTArticleTake a Deep BreathMemories have a way of creeping up on you. You might flashback to your prom, or the moment you held your first born. As you age, your memories become much more vivid, you remember even the slightest detail. Some memories are fantastic while others might be a living hell depending on what they went through. Enjoy reminiscing about old friends and good times. Those memories will always be a treasure.rARTArticleTake a Retreat To Detoxify Your SoulWe live in a world that is speeding up at exponential proportions. Whirling and swirling, racing on the Hamster Wheel, and continually multi-tasking are not the state human beings were meant to be in. On many levels our hormones respond to this lifestyle by continually being in an over-stimulated state, creating many levels of imbalances and toxicity in our lives. Connecting with what truly matters to us is very difficult, if not impossible, when living your life this way.ARTArticleTake Advantage Of The Benefits This Time Does BringThere's a person who does some work for me—getting specific, she does transcriptions for me—who off and on has done it for years. We've been creating product all this time… Of course, most of it earlier was Internet-related, and she came right along with that. And now, most of what I do is actually oriented around The NEW Think and Grow Rich and empowerment technologies, such as the article that you're reading right now. Who do you think made the transcript? It's her. First off—no, don't ask me for her name if you're an information marketer, because she's doing a good job.ARTArticleTake Charge - ChangeWhen is the best time to start your new program, to open up to the new consciousness where you become a new person, where you adopt new habits, patterns, where you change your lifestyle to give you what you want? When do you think is the best time? This is a question that's come up throughout history. Paul of Tarsus said, "Now is the acceptable time!" That's what I think, too-now! Especially when you think of the match-strike existence that we live as humans. We have the ability to contribute, we have the ability to enjoy every day, we have the ability.ARTArticleTake Risks and Take Action to Build ConfidenceTake Risks and Take Action to Build Confidence “If you always do what you’ve always done, then you’ll always get what you’ve already got.” Your comfort zone is not the place to stay! If you want major change in your life and develop absolute confidence, you must change those self-limiting beliefs that have kept you from having what you’ve wanted in the past. Confident people all share one common trait: they take risks and take action. So, get out there and try new things! Learn a new skill or try a new hobby. Don’t be worried about failure or rejection.ARTArticleTaking Charge of Your ResultsThe weekend of July 14, 2013 was magnificent for my friend Marion. She rode her very first top level dressage tests called Prix St. George and received excellent scores, thus she will be receiving the Silver Medal from the United Dressage Federation in 2013. This is an amazing success story for her and her wonderful horse Hochkarat which she trained by herself and a brilliant example how we can shape our results. Clarity of her goals combined with the winning self image allowed her to receive this amazing success.ARTArticleTaking Courageous DecisionsWe’re in our eighth great year living in the French Alps. When we upped and left Ireland in 2002, many friends and clients remarked that we were taking a courageous decision – after all, our children were thirteen, eleven and eight years old at the time and were establishing their own little lives. Similarly, I walked away from a big job in banking in 1996 to set up my practice as a consultant and mentor – what I’m still doing today. Once again, at the time, many people told me that I was brave and courageous to do that.ARTArticleTaking Ourselves SeriouslyWe take ourselves seriously all time, but in misaligned directions away from our success. A misaligned direction is any one that leads away from our success, and toward our upset. Any energy other than that which is devoted toward our being successful, is misaligned energy. And misaligned energy cannot be used for getting us what we want, if what we want is success! Let's start at the beginning.ARTArticleTap Into Creative Flow Through HumorChildhood is often referred to as a carefree and playful time enjoyed without a thought of responsibility. However, a more accurate look at the average youth experience reveals that children experience quite a bit of emotional and sometimes physical pain. Many children who live such a stressful childhood reach for humor as a coping mechanism.ARTArticleTeen Suicide - COULD THE PROBLEM BE US?COULD THE PROBLEM BE US? When speaking with a friend about teenage suicide, I asked her if it would surprise her that every classroom I walked into over 90% of the students know someone who has had a suicidal thought? I went on to tell about a time I spoke to a student body of 400 high school teens at a public high school. When I asked if any teen in the audience knew somebody who had a suicidal thought all 400 raised their hands. I can tell you the administrators, counselors and teachers at that highly decorated school were shocked.ARTArticleTen Easy Ways to Have Hard ConversationsTen Easy Ways to Have Hard Conversations Byr Bill Cottringer “Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.” ~Ronald Reagan.ARTArticleTEN SURE WAYS TO SUCCEED IN THE WORKPLACETEN SURE WAYS TO SUCCEED IN THE WORKPLACE Byr Bill Cottringer “The best way to appreciate your job is to imagine yourself without one.” ~Oscar Wilde.ARTArticleTERRIBLE CHOICESTERRIBLE CHOICES Byr Bill Cottringer “We choose our joys and sorrows long before we experience them.” ~Kahlil Gibran. There are some terrible choices we seem to have to make through all ages. Consider the following very uncomfortable choices confronting us all at different times in our lives: • Youth: The choice of staying cool with the peer group and doing whatever that requires—even engaging in wrong or illegal behavior—and then suffering the dire consequences vs.ARTArticleTh Conference RoomWhat is being done today effects all of our tomorrows. I say this with joy and a newfound respect for what others do. It is behind closed doors that plans are being made to help others. It is a place where fund-raisers are being organized, budgets are discussed and new programs are being drawn up.rARTArticleThanksgiving PrayerThis is my Thanksgiving prayer from me to you. I pray for safe travels everywhere that you go. I pray for fond memories of loved ones to always fill your heart. As you carefully plan out all the details for your Thanksgiving feast, all things are done with love and that is the most important ingredient that you need. As you gather around for your holiday meal, everyday acknowledge how blessed you truly are.rARTArticleThat One MomentThis article is about that one moment in life when you have the opportunity to turn things around. It is about that one moment when you realize the meaning of something, and it is so profound, as if a bolt of lightning knocked the realization into you. It leaves you wondering, “Why didn’t I think of that sooner?”rARTArticleThat One MomentThis article is about that one moment in life when you have the opportunity to turn things around. It is about that one moment when you realize the meaning of something, and it is so profound, as if a bolt of lightning knocked the realization into you. It leaves you wondering, “Why didn’t I think of that sooner?”rARTArticleThe 3 Simplest Words You Must Use Every Day If You Want Success.Mindset The Power Of Your Thinking...The Results Of Your Doing! Today, we’re going to discuss what it takes to think the right way in order to achieve all your dreams. There is a particular mindset principle that we’d like to focus on in this e-book. It’s a principle based not upon theory, but upon tried and true methods of understanding how people achieve results. The principle is summed up in 3 simple words…. Have….. Do….. Be…..EVERYTHING! The concept is simple.ARTArticleThe A,B,C's Of Success And Why Your Education Get's You Nowhere.There are many people with the highest degrees from the best schools that are still working dead end jobs. Being well educated or emersing yourself in information does not lead to success. Don't get me wrong, education, information and learning about a subject are VERY important. However, they are not the most important aspects of your success. So what is it?ARTArticleThe Accumulation Of Riches And The Human Life CycleHere's a moment of insight, while it's actually happening, into the life of an author. I am reading my Spanish translation of The NEW Think and Grow Rich. They call it El Nuevo Piense y Hágase Rico. And I come across this line, "La acumulación de dinero no puede dejarlo al azar, a la buena fortuna, a la suerte." Now, I'm not going to assume, since you're in a primarily English audience at this moment, that you don’t fully understood that.ARTArticleThe Action Of SatisfactionTB Wright *This article is specifically designed to start a thought process that will lead us away from dissatisfaction, and on to satisfaction, through practice. This takes time. The invitation is to give yourself that time, and to practice the "tell the truth now, tell the truth later" method of success, which always works toward our satisfaction. We all have a myriad of things we like. No problem. We all have a myriad of things we do. No problem either. All of us also be, do, and have, a lot of things other than that which we like.ARTArticleThe Advice Of A Seven-Year-Old PanamanianTodos los tiempos. For you who are not fluent in Spanish, todos los tiempos means—o significa, as they say—all the time, all the times. And really, what I want to talk about today is just an example of how we really want to live life to the max. I'm going tell you the story of a seven-year-old Panamanian girl, okay? We live what we live, and what we don't live we don't live. Alexandra Hill, a citizen of La Ciudad de Panamá—Panamá City, Panamá.
