You are the result of millions of years of evolution. The number of possible connections in your brain is larger than the number of stars in the known universe. Again, there has never been someone as unique as you, and there never will be.<br /><br />It is estimated that your brain has about 100 billion neurons, and each one of them has on average 7,000 synaptic connections to other neurons.<br />There are about 100,000 miles of nerve fibers in your brain, and some fibers may have up to 10,000 branches in them. A computer can make one connection at a time, while a reaction in one neuron can spread to hundreds of thousands of others in less than 20 milliseconds.<br /><br />Your potential for creative imagination is literally unlimited. Through you, the entire creativity of the universe can be channeled.<br />Though there is no way of measuring it directly, it is estimated that the processing power of an average brain is about 100 million million instructions per second. However, the information processing capacity of the conscious mind is only estimated to be about 100-200 bits per second.<br /><br />Can you even begin to grasp the raw processing power of the unconscious mind? It is literally beyond comprehension! That's why creativity and problem solving should be left to the unconscious mind, and not limited by conscious reasoning.<br />You are truly nature’s greatest miracle, and today is the day when you will start treating yourself as such.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-30276114421684611192007-10-01T08:18:00.000-07:002007-10-01T08:19:35.902-07:00Forgiving Yourself is an ArtYou Are Your Own Judge. And You Need To Forgive Yourself Now<br />In the game of life, you are your own judge. The meaning of life is what you make of it, and in the end, you are the one who is left to judge your accomplishments.<br />However, sometimes we judge ourselves too hard. Holding on to the feelings of guilt and shame is a sure way to limit your potential, in all areas of life.<br />You have the freedom to lead a meaningful life, or a wasted one. What we will try to do is make sure that you make that choice wisely, and not by random chance.<br />It all starts with wiping the slate clean. By forgiving yourself.<br />Think about it…<br />Have you ever done something that you deeply regret? Have you ever hurt someone, and not been able to get over it?<br />Then now is the time to put all that behind you.<br />No matter what you may be guilty of, you couldn't do more than your best at the time. You can't change the past, and you don't need to.<br />Mistakes of the past should be left in the past. Don’t waste your strength by focusing on what cannot be changed. Your job is making the future the best it can possibly be.<br />We all have some dark secrets, some skeletons in the closet. You're not unique there.<br />You can leave all feelings of guilt behind, today. The universe is all loving. All compassionate. Non judging. Anything you regret will be forgiven, if you choose to forgive yourself.<br />Take a moment to think about what limiting beliefs you really have… List them… Then let them go. Now.<br />You are unique. You are valuable. And you need to know this, at the very core of your being.<br />To realize your full potential, you need to consciously and subconsciously let go of all limiting beliefs, and all feelings of guilt.<br />The time to make that decision is today.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-36631242258219661232007-04-12T08:22:00.000-07:002007-04-12T08:23:56.704-07:00Secret to Success in BusinessHere is a secret that may be difficult for you to believe, so prepare yourself. It is an extremely important secret that can have a most profound impact on your small business success, or its failure.<br /><br />Let's start by asking a simple question...Do you enjoy sales?<br /><br />The truth of the matter is that when many small business owners are asked this question, they respond with answers like, "No way" or "I can't stand sales, let someone else do it."<br /><br />Why is your answer to the above question so important? No doubt you have seen headlines like the following, which glorify how easy and simple it is to succeed in business:<br /><br />"The Ultimate Lazy Way To Start Your Own Business"<br /><br />"Cash In On A Multi-Billion Dollar Industry In Your Underwear"<br /><br />"Easily Generate A Lucrative Income While Sleeping"<br /><br />We are constantly being bombarded with these "easy ways" to make a million bucks. Does success in business actually work this way? Not in reality! Is it realistic? Not even close!<br /><br />The bottom line in operating a successful long-term business comes down to your ability to sell your product...period. It doesn't get any simpler than that. You can either sell your own product or resell somebody else's product. Either way, your success or failure will ultimately depend on your ability to market it. If you don't enjoy sales, you have very little chance to succeed in business for yourself.<br /><br />The most prevalent attitude of many new business owners is that their product, once launched, will miraculously sell itself. After all, the product is awesome and everybody will absolutely, positively want one. People should be lining up to buy it, right?<br /><br />Here is another truth about sales. It will take 5-7 sales attempts to close 80% of your sales. Yes, you read that correctly. That's 5-7 attempts before people will say "Yes, I want to buy your product." Running an advertisement one-time or making a sales pitch to a potential customer once in a while does not qualify as effort. Hearing that first "no" and subsequently giving up means the demise of your business and gives someone else an opportunity to turn that NO into a YES.<br /><br />What most people don't realize or fail to accept is that it may take weeks, months or even years to get a product to sell according to your expectations. You may have to frequently change your sales pitch, web site, advertisement or even the product until you get it right. This dedication and determination is what separates the very few successful business owners from the many "wannabes" and fly-by-night hopefuls.<br /><br />The bottom line is that to be successful in ANY business you will need talent and the ability to sell, sell, sell.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-75701740135233804292007-03-19T22:18:00.000-07:002007-03-19T22:25:52.839-07:00Take it Easy - Slow down and Discover your HappinessIn our everyday life, we often hear friends and relative saying that they have no time for this and that. Are we really just too busy? How comfortable are we when we don’t have anything to distract us? Are we content when we’re not accomplishing something, moving ahead in our goals or helping others? Is our sense of worth tied to our busyness? Are we a slave to recognition? Are we lonely when we’re by ourselves? It is important not only to reflect upon such questions but to decide to behave differently.<br /><br />Perhaps we could set aside five minutes of ‘thinking time’ a day. Some people might just ‘be’ while others may choose to meditate or pray. We might also do well to engage in a solitary activity from time to time or even develop a hobby that we quietly enjoy ourselves. Instead of only reading work-related journals, we should read outside of our area of expertise and read for pure pleasure.<br /><br />Many of us are performance-oriented and driven by success and competition. We should acknowledge that one day we may be at a loss to know what to do with ourselves when our career is over, retirement beckons, or perhaps we become physically unable to actively pursue the same interests. Can we still be happy even when we’re not busy? We need to slow down and savor life – not rush through it and miss so much potential beauty and happiness along the way. It is entirely possible to discipline ourselves to slow down and be more fully present in each human interaction and each solitary moment of our day.<br /><br />Being fully present is impossible if we are constantly rushing about, going over our ‘to do’ list or mentally reviewing the meeting we just left. To be fully present is to give 100% attention to the task at hand or to whomever we’re talking. It means maintaining a comfortable degree of eye contact, verbally showing comprehension and asking open-ended questions. Applied to family life, trying to slow down and be more present brings irreplaceable rewards. The dignity of each family member is recognized and deeper relationships result. The next time your child or a young person asks for attention in some way be reminded that nothing is more important or sends a message of love more than willingly giving them your time. It’s a gift of self.<br /><br />Do not miss the truly important parts of life by being too preoccupied and busy. Slow down! Resolve today to:<br />• Look for the beauty around you<br />• Begin to read a book for pleasure<br />• Spend some quiet time alone<br />• Listen better<br />• Spend some time visiting with family and/or friends <br />• Volunteer your service to the less fortunate.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-73559135966362635472007-01-31T08:24:00.000-08:002007-01-31T08:30:49.447-08:00Find out what you really wantThe biggest frustration amongst people seems to be not having what they want in life.<br /><br />Yet they have exactly what they wished for.<br /><br />Your mind is like a powerful computer. Much more powerful than anything man made that exists today. The purpose of your mind is to provide the outcome that is programmed into it, by you. It will always give you the programmed result, which is a law of nature.<br /><br />And this is where the trouble starts.<br /><br />Most of us have no idea how to effectively program this computer, and those that do, program it with ineffective programs more often than not.<br /><br />Do you realize that the only difference between your success and that of say a Donald Trump or a Bill Gates is the way that they think?<br /><br />Whether they did it consciously or not, their thought patterns follow a set of guidelines that led them to the success that they enjoy. These patterns are burnt into their minds, and they will not alter them for anything. It is who they are. Like them or not, they are effective in their chosen fields.<br /><br />So what does this have to do with you, and more importantly, can you use this knowledge for your own good.<br /><br />Well, the short answer is "yes".<br /><br />You can use this knowledge, and are actually doing so every single day.<br /><br />Your life is exactly as your mind thinks and reacts to circumstances on a continuous basis right now. So the good news is that you are already doing it, you cannot help yourself, it is human nature.<br /><br />The bad news is that the thought patterns you have running in your mind, are not giving you the results you consciously want. They are giving you the results that you have programmed into your mind, mostly subconsciously.<br /><br />This is why goal setting can be so important. With a clear goal in mind, your thought processes will at least be aligned in some direction most of the time. This can and does make a huge difference to your results.<br /><br />Lets use the computer program analogy once more.<br /><br />A computer will process information based on a specific set of rules and criteria. That is basically what a computer software program does. If you have a program that says if A happens, always do B, you get a predetermined predictable result. You know that a certain input will give you a specific output.<br /><br />With our minds, not having a goal is like saying, if A happens, do B, or C or D or whatever strikes your fancy. The result is confusion and wasted energy. Spinning around without going anywhere.<br /><br />Now life presents us with A today, B tomorrow, and C, D, A the next day. If, however, you have a set of actions ready for whenever A happens (by having a set goal) you automatically move toward your desired outcome every time A occurs. You might not have moved far, but you did move a small amount toward your goal, every time A happens.<br /><br />At least you are moving in a certain direction, that you have predetermined, by simply deciding what you actually want, and then setting a goal to get there.<br /><br />Goal setting is a huge topic, and not quite as simple as described. It is however very worthwhile, and just may make the difference between contentment and a life of frustration.<br /><br />So find out what you want, then <a href="http://generalhan.zufeltdna1.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=602WILL">work towards that goal</a>.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-21833209692353908122007-01-26T00:24:00.000-08:002007-01-31T08:26:38.972-08:00True DesireI need to put up this little message urgently as I sincerely feel that it is the most important message that I have to pass on to you.<br /><br />I have been talking quite a fair bit about the path to acheiving success in whatever you want to do. Of course the main ingredient is PASSION.<br /><br />Many people feel that there is a mathematical formula or a unique step-by-step method that will bring you to success. But in reality it is not. There are also books written telling you to train yourself to think positively and knocking into your tiny brain the message that you can do it and eventually you will achieve success. This again is not exactly true.<br /><br />The truth is that as long as you have a deep desire to do something that your heart desires, you will go all out to get it done well no matter what sacrifices you have to make. Remember the time you fall in love with the person you really love? Did you ask yourself the question why? Isn't it a tough question to answer? This is because deep down in your heart, you have this feeling for that person whom you want to be with forever. There is no logical answer to it. You have taken every possible step to date this person and show your affection. You will do silly things to make him or her happy. You won't feel that it is a chore. It is the burning desire deep down inside you that keeps you going to achieve it.<br /><br />Similarly, as long as you have the true passion inside wanting to achieve something. You will definitely able to get it done. You will succeed as long as you know your <a href="http://generalhan.zufeltdna1.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=602WILL">true desire</a>.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-89724989834524208802007-01-19T01:17:00.000-08:002007-01-19T01:19:37.080-08:00Road to Success in Home BusinessesDay by day people scour the internet looking for a home based business to set them financially free. What happens more often than not is that people end in worse shape than when they started. Why you ask? The answer is not so simple.<br /><br />The key to finding a home based business starts with knowing yourself. That means knowing what you are good at and what you do not do well. You must also be honest with yourself when doing this. We would all love to be perfect in every aspect of life but the truth is we are not and we have to accept this fact. This is important because picking a business in which most of the tasks that need to be done are your strengths will increase your chances of success.For example let's say you are not much of a talker. You do not talk much to people who you do not know and you keep to yourself usually. You are however extremely organized and love to write. It would most likely be in your best interest to be an article writer or ghost writer. They do not require you to do much talking or go to meetings all the time.<br /><br />The next thing you need to know is the product or service that you will be offering. The more you believe in your product or service, the more you will sell. Now before I go on there is a handful of people in the world that could sell ice to an Eskimo or sell water to a fish but these people are the exception rather than the rule. For most of us if we do not believe in what we are doing we will not reach the level of success that we desire. People will be able to tell if you believe in your product or not. So if you are looking at a network marketing company try being their customer for a couple of months before you join the business. Once you try the product or try the service then you will know how you feel about it. On top of that you will be more prepared to answer question about it because you have become familiar with it.<br /><br />Once you picked a business that relies on your strengths and a product or service you can believe in you have to choose what your budget is going to be. Remember that most home businesses take at least months before you really start seeing results off so it is important to keep within a budget until then. If you decide to join a mlm you may have the type of sponsor that says you should buy this or buy that it will really help your business. Remembers that you need to stay within your budget. If the recommended items are out of your budget ask your sponsor to rank the items by importance. This way you can stay in budget and get the items most needed first.<br /><br />OK now you have your business, our product, and your budget now you are ready to start your business. Just remember that it is a business and should be treated as such. Running a home based business can be more difficult than running a traditional business. Running a business from home offers many distractions; Kids, TV , your bed, etc. You could have followed this guide perfectly but mess this up and you will not succeed. If you do not take it seriously you will just be wasting money and wasting time and since how most people start up home based businesses to have more time and more money you would be defeating the purpose. Make sure the home office is secluded so that when you are working you cannot be distracted.<br /><br />Now that you have your business running you must market it. Marketing is how you get customers. Now there are many forms of marketing such as newspaper ads, flyers, TV ads, mailing lists, pay-per-click ads, power-linking, and many others. How you market your business is up to you. Each technique has its own strengths and weaknesses. Obviously you will want to keep your budget in mind when picking a method of marketing.<br /><br />Diversify your marketing as much as possible, and remember... the more people that see and know your business the more business you will do.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-32576404470703920532006-12-18T07:13:00.000-08:002006-12-18T08:14:42.478-08:00Passion found SuccessI want to share with you a story that I came across while I was on vacation in South Korea.<br /><br />I cannot really verify if the story I heard is true or not. But nevertheless, it is a wonderful story that I want to tell all of you as it shows the great passion of one determination to pursue the things that one wants to do in life.<br /><br />I was on this group tour in Korea and we had a mandarin speaking guide. Her name is Judy. Though she is a Korean she speaks fluent mandarin. We are very pleased with her as she did an excellent job in arranging our accommodation, meals and transportation. She did well in managing the schedule, giving us sufficient time to see places without much of a rush.<br /><br />We were told that in the tourism industries in Korea, tour leaders profession is mainly dominated by the men. Very few women take up such job. In Korean tradition, men is seen as superior over the women. Men hold most of the high position jobs.<br /><br />When Judy first joined the tourism industry as a tour leader, she is often being despised by fellow male colleagues as she is a female. Moreover, she is tasked to lead Chinese speaking tour group which requires her to communicate in mandarin. Being Korean, she has to pick up the Chinese language in order to do the job efficiently. She competes with her male counterparts. Some were migrant from China with no difficulties in speaking mandarin making the competition tougher.<br /><br />Nevertheless, Judy, went to study the Chinese language, and constantly watching Chinese movies and listening to Chinese programs to improve her language skill so that she will not lose out to her peers.<br /><br />Her parents had great objection to her being a tour leader as she is required to be away from home for long period of time. Her parents had put her through piano lessons hoping that she will become a well known music teacher one day. But Judy just wants to be a tour leader. Because of her love for the job, she made every effort to make her parents happy so as to gain their approval.<br /><br />When she got married, her in-laws were not happy with her for being in such profession too as women are seen to be home makers to serve the husbands. But she is filled with determination to pursue in this profession. She is so passionate about this profession that she can make any sacrifices to be in this job. She managed to convince her in-laws.<br /><br />She fought her way up the ladder becoming among the best performer in the tourism industries in Korea. She had received numerous awards from her company for outstanding performance.<br /><br />We can see that she loves her job. She gets great satisfaction bringing foreigners to see places in her country. She loves to see the smile on our faces as this indicate that she is doing a good job. She likes being with people and playing host.<br /><br />I am definitely impressed with her passion for the job and the great determination in doing it well. She had done it well for 7 years and I can see that she will continue to do well and succeed because she has the passion.<br /><br />Judy is one good example of a successful person in her own way putting passion first which leads to success.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-91536163224611560542006-11-05T01:56:00.000-08:002006-11-05T01:58:14.657-08:00Action Plan to Success<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">It is a sad aspect of live but not everyone can be successful. In the world we live in there are winners and losers. Most people want to be in the group of winners but unfortunately many remain where they stand. As you well know, being successful means to stand above the others around you or to know more that the one sitting next to you does.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">You should understand how to have more success than your colleague and to work for success. Success doesn’t come free or cheap, you have to pay for it. The price is not monetary but it is expressed in manners of time and effort, these being precious details that you can’t receive back once you gave them away. Success is hard. Generally speaking to be successful you have to work hard, be educated and have a little bit of luck. Often you have to try many times until you truly reach success.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt; text-indent: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: black;">Not being successful is simple: you make all the wrong choices, you work without ethics, the lack of responsibility and of education is almost everything.

This is within each one of us and need to be realised.<br /><br />We often ask ourselves - Don't we all want to be successful? In life? As a person? In your career, job, business?<br /><br />The fundamental law of human achievement is the law of belief. It suggests that you always behave in a manner consistent with your beliefs. If you believe you are a Roman Catholic, then you are. If you believe you are a Buddhist, you are. If you believe you can ride a bicycle, then you can ride a bicycle. Even if you can't ride a bicycle as long as you believe you can, but if not then you will persist in failing until you can actually ride. Unfortunately, once you decide you can't ride a bicycle, then you can't. Even though we are all capable of riding a bicycle, once you believe you can't, you can't.<br /><br />You then suffer from the self-limiting belief that you just cannot do it. Your belief is not based on fact it is just a belief. Even though our self-limiting beliefs are not based on fact, we always behave in a manner consistent with our beliefs. If you believe you can drive a car, be creative, set goals, implement a successful life strategy, or marketing strategy, sell well, negotiate, be a leader, understand the financial implications, manage your time well, etc., then you can master all these skills.<br /><br />Even if at the present time you have not mastered these skills, as long as you believe you are excellent, then you will make the necessary efforts. You will set goals, design a personal development plan, and set personal and family goals and resolve to pay the necessary price.<br /><br />Another vitally important aspect of the law of belief is that you can believe anything that you want to believe. You can believe that you are brilliant at marketing, selling, finance, relationships and time management. You can believe that you are successful in business. You can believe that you are a millionaire. As long as you truly believe, then you will hang on to that belief, despite setbacks, until your beliefs become your reality. Without a doubt, your beliefs are your reality.<br /><br />Make a decision to adopt beliefs which are consistent with achieving your goals. All successful people have beliefs consistent with what they want to achieve. Join them! Make a decision to change your beliefs. The beliefs you hold at the moment are largely responsible for the position you hold at the moment. If you change your beliefs, then you change your reality. Changing your beliefs about yourself means changing your self-concept. Your self-concept is your bundle of beliefs about yourself. Make a decision to adopt the self-concept which is consistent with achieving your goals. We get our beliefs from our culture and what other people tell us. When we are little our most significant others tell us things which describe us. If the parent tells the child he is useless he will grow up believing it and manifesting that uselessness in his life. If the daughter was told she is beautiful and sings like an angel, she will grow up believing it whether it is true or not.<br /><br />Everything starts with ideas or thoughts. Thoughts and ideas become feelings which eventually become beliefs. Your beliefs have a powerful effect on your expectations. Your expectations have a powerful effect on your attitude. If you believe you are destined to become successful then this has a strong effect on your expectations which in turn become very positive. Your positive expectations are translated into a very positive attitude. Your attitude is the major determinant of your success in achieving your goals.<br /><br />Everything comes back to beliefs. Successful people have the beliefs of successful people; unsuccessful people have the beliefs of unsuccessful people. Make a decision to adopt the beliefs consistent with being successful. Make a decision to shake off self-limiting beliefs and negative emotions. This drains energy and is time wasting. Replace them with positive beliefs and positive emotions. Start now! And belief in yourself!<br /><br />So if you ever want to realise your dream, you need to start in believing in yourself that you can do it.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-69680643450732096612006-10-13T09:43:00.000-07:002006-10-13T09:46:20.954-07:00The Main Ingredient to SuccessLife gives us many opportunities to improve, but whether we do or not depends on our effort. Once a week a person should sit down and examine the progress he/she has made towards achieving a set goal. If goals have not been reached then honest examination must be undertaken to discover the reasons why. This must be followed by extra determination that these goals will be met next time.<br /><br />Do not worry or become stressed if you do not always achieve your goals, remember you're only human. However it is imperative that you dissect why you failed, were they genuine reasons beyond your control or simply excuses? If the answer turns out to be excuses then double your resolve and effort that they will not stand in your way the next time.<br /><br />Always remember that the harder the goal you set yourself the greater the reward, not just in reaching the goal but in personal development and inner belief, making the next goal you set yourself that little bit easier. Do not be afraid of hard goals as these will bring you more reward than half a dozen smaller triumphs.<br /><br />Too many people who fail when trying to achieve a goal become defeated and believe they just do not have what it takes. Nothing could be further from the truth. What they do not understand, or have not fully grasped, is that all they need is to instill within themselves a little extra determination, an honesty with themselves why they failed, and then to have another go.<br /><br />The secret to success is to always try to improve yourself - no matter what life may throw in your path. Sure, there will be obstacles, however, do not view them as insurmountable, be gritty and work around or over them. Everyone really wants to do something, but there are few that will put forward the needed effort to make the necessary sacrifice to secure it. There is only one way to accomplish anything and that is to go ahead and do it. A person may accomplish almost anything if they just set their hearts on doing it and let nothing interfere with progress. The "bigger" the person the smaller the obstacle appears. The "smaller" the man the greater the obstacle appears. Always look at the advantages you gain by overcoming obstacles, and it will give you the needed courage for their conquest. Look back at obstacles you have overcome and realize that the present obstacle will soon be added to the list.<br /><br />Winston Churchill summed up all the above in two sentences:<br /><br />"Never give in -- never, never, never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy." <br /><br />So just keep focus and never give up till you succeed.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-1160205437604707582006-10-07T00:12:00.000-07:002006-10-07T00:17:17.613-07:00Success - Is Your ChoiceYou can choose success. Do you believe this? If you do not then you have chosen (yes chosen) a different route and success will not be a prominent feature! Success is about choosing what you want in life and taking the necessary steps to achieve that goal. Success is not stopping until you get there!<br /><br />Read the last two sentences again. Easy to say but how do you get there? What are the choices made by the successful? What are they doing differently from everyone else?<br /><br />Choose to remove whatever is holding you back. Has something happened in the past to affect your self esteem? Do you immediately have negative thoughts as soon as money and success come to mind? If you are not choosing success then it is likely that something is blocking your ability to change and follow a new path. To remove the block you must have focus. To have focus you must first have an all consuming dream of where you want to be. Only when you have defined that dream can you start to focus on it. Focus so intently that everything you do is done with your dream in mind. Only then can you move toward that dream.<br /><br />Choose to live your success. Live your life as if you were successful, as if you had already achieved the goal that you are focusing on. When you are at work, visualize what your workplace will be like when you have reached your goal, and place yourself there. Sit at your desk as if you were running the multimillion dollar business that you are focusing on. When you get into your car, visualize what your dream car will be like and see yourself sitting in it. Visualize yourself driving away from your dream house. When you are in your home - look around it and see your new surroundings. Get inside the feeling - really be there.<br /><br />The more you do this, the more your subconscious will think that you are successful and move you towards these things. Live your success expecting to realize it. Living it now is a practice run for when it comes to you. After all, you want to be prepared, don't you?<br /><br />Choose to believe in your success. What your conscious mind believes, your subconscious strives to achieve. Look around at your friends and acquaintances and ask yourself how many of them have unshakable belief in where they are going. Are they successful? Possibly not - they may be in a good job and have a nice life but they do not have the success factor. Perhaps you do know of someone with unshakable belief. They may not be successful now but they will be moving in the right direction. Watch that space....<br /><br />Belief is the catalyst which takes the dream and turns the focus into a plan to get there. Never underestimate the power of belief.<br /><br />Choose to be emotional about your success. Belief plus emotion are unstoppable. If you have utter belief then you will develop emotion. If you want something badly enough it is emotive. Maybe it is to get out of debt. If you have suffered the hardships of this situation you will feel everything to do with debt and money is charged with emotion. This is the reason behind so many 'rags to riches' stories. Sometimes only the most devastating of emotional circumstances are the catalyst for change and a move toward success instead of away from it.<br /><br />You can choose success. Or you can choose to stay safe and do what you do now. Guess what - you will still be doing the same in ten years time. The question is - do you want to? The choice is totaly up to you.SirVivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08500771739715458909noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32940253.post-1155896553380223052006-08-18T03:15:00.000-07:002006-08-18T03:22:33.386-07:00DiscoveryHi everyone,<br /><br />I am glad to have started this blog and hope to share my experience and joy with all those who read it.
