This is the most powerful question you can ask yourself, especially if you find yourself up against challenging moments. The question makes you think of the possiblities at hand.

What if I do…What if I don’t…?

You see he who ask the right questions and can hold on to that vision the longest achieves what those thoughts are. This can work out for good or bad.

But thats a whole other subject for later. What I want you to concentrate on is asking yourself the “What if “question to your desires.

What if I had the unlimited power to become successful and start my own Biz?
What if I knew I couldn’t fail?
What if I followed my heart?
What if I stopped listening to everyone else and started listening to myself.
What if, what you argue for; you get to keep.
What if you don’t have to get it right, just get it going?

You can come up with some many more just quiet down.

Enough said…

Whoa, I can feel the Certainity of better Vision coming on, Uncertainty is what can be used to motivate us to taking action by avoiding pain and gaining pleasure.

Don’t BS anymore and hold yourself back from the life your were meant to LIVE! Live with Passion and know that you will kick butt and refuse to be denied what is yours!

Everyone, at some point of his or her life, has dreamed of being somebody special, somebody big. Who hasn’t fantasized about being the one who hits the game-winning homer? Who hasn’t dreamed of being the homecoming queen? And how many times have we dreamed of being rich, or successful, or happy with our relationships?

Often, we dream big dreams and have great aspirations. Unfortunately, our dreams remain just that – dreams. And our aspirations easily collect dust in our attic.

This is a sad turn of events in our life. Instead of experiencing exciting adventures in self actualization, we get caught up in the humdrum of living from day-to-day just barely existing.

But you know what? Life could be so much better, if only we learned to aim higher.

The most common problem to setting goals is the word impossible. Most people get hung up thinking I can’t do this. It’s too hard. It’s too impossible. No one can do this.

However, if everyone thought that, there would be no inventions, no innovations, and no breakthroughs in human accomplishment.

Remember that scientists were baffled when they took a look at the humble bumblebee. Theoretically, they said, it was impossible for the bumblebee to fly. Unfortunately for the bumble, bee no one has told it so. So fly it does.

On the other hand, some people suffer from dreaming totally outrageous dreams and not acting on them. The result? Broken dreams, and tattered aspirations.

If you limit yourself with self-doubt, and self-limiting assumptions, you will never be able to break past what you deem impossible. If you reach too far out into the sky without working towards your goal, you will find yourself clinging on to the impossible dream.

Try this exercise. Take a piece of paper and write down some goals in your life. Under one header, list down things ‘you know you can do’. Under another header, write the things ‘you might be able to do.’ And under one more, list the things that that are ‘impossible for you to do.’

Now look at all the headers strive every day to accomplish the goals that are under things ‘you know you can do’. Check them when you are able to accomplish them. As you slowly are able to check all of your goals under that heading, try accomplishing the goals under the other header-the one that reads ‘you might be able to do.’

As of the items you wrote under things I could do are accomplished, you can move the goals that are under things that are ‘impossible for you to do’ to the list of things ‘you might be able to do.’

As you iterate through this process, you will find out that the goals you thought were impossible become easier to accomplish. And the impossible begin to seem possible after all.

You see, the technique here is not to limit your imagination. It is to aim high, and start working towards that goal little by little. However, it also is unwise to set a goal that is truly unrealistic.

Those who just dream towards a goal without working hard end up disappointed and disillusioned.

On the other hand, if you told someone a hundred years ago that it was possible for man to be on the moon, they would laugh at you. If you had told them that you could send mail from here to the other side of the world in a few seconds, they would say you were out of your mind. But, through sheer desire and perseverance, these impossible dreams are now realities.

Thomas Edison once said that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Nothing could be truer. For one to accomplish his or her dreams, there has to be had work and discipline. But take note that that 1% has to be a think-big dream, and not some easily accomplished one.

Ask any gym rat and he or she will tell you that there can be no gains unless you are put out of your comfort zone. Remember the saying, “No pain, no gain”? That is as true as it can be.

So dream on, friend! Don’t get caught up with your perceived limitations. Think big and work hard to attain those dreams. As you step up the ladder of progress, you will just about find out that the impossible has just become a little bit more possible.

Become TALL and live your Life.

Forget about the past and live it up because you refuse to be denied.

Say it Loud; I refuse to be denied!

Have you come across a person who is so naturally friendly that when you put him inside a room of strangers, he’ll be friends with almost everyone in no time? We call such a people-person, someone unbelievably nice and charismatic that he can charm anyone into doing anything.

A socially-empowered person achieves so much greatness, basically because of the people that catapult him to success. He earns the trust and all-out support of the people, whom he had helped before. He never runs out of help. He can do anything with the plethora of people behind him. All because he knows he maximizes his social potential!

See, if you know your social skills and you make use of them, you will reach self-empowerment. Self-empowerment is making a general overhaul in your life and turning yourself into a happier and more successful person.If you can be one of those people-persons, then I can’t see any reason why you will not succeed. You just have to know how to start.

1. Be genuine.

Hypocrisy will just bring you all the way down. Be genuinely nice and interested to people. Once they perceive that you are Mr. Hypocrite with selfish intentions, you might as well say goodbye to self-empowerment.

2. Be the greatest listener that you can be.

To earn the love and trust of the people, listen to their problems and sympathize with them. Do not just hear them out, listen to them with your heart. Make eye contact when the person talks to you. Listen as if every word matters, and it does. Brownie points when they find out that there is a confidante in you.

3. Laugh out loud.

I do not mean that you force yourself to laugh for every joke cracked by someone, albeit you do not find it funny at all.This means finding humor in things and not being too darn serious. A person oozing with an awesome sense of humor attracts crowds and eventually, attracts success.

4. Don’t forget yourself.

In the process of fluttering around like a social butterfly, you might forget yourself, allowing everyone to push you over. Remember, love and value yourself before anyone else. If you deem yourself respectable and worthy of affection, people will flock to you and not trample on you.

5. Do random acts of kindness.

You don’t have to do a John Rockefeller and blow your savings to charity. Little acts of kindness matters the most, and this can be as simple as giving someone a surprise you-take-care card or helping an elderly cross the street. When we were kindergarten students, kindness was taught to us and greatly practiced. Now is the time to revive the good deeds and this time, let them stay for good.

6. Contact your old friends.

Sad how some friendships are destined to goodbye, but thanks to technology, you can do something about it. Relive the good old days by flipping your yearbook and look for the great people whom you want to communicate with again. Adding these old friends to your roster of support peers will surely make you feel good all over.

7. Develop your personality.

Are you grouchy, grumpy and generally morose? Whoa, you can’t go through life with those. Get rid of the bad traits and habits that perpetually hamper your growth. And really, who wants a grouchy friend anyway?

8. Be confident.

Be able to stride to the other corner of the room and introduce yourself to people with that winning smile of yours. Just remember: be confident, not arrogant.

9. Practice control.

When angry, don’t snap at anyone. Never throw a tantrum. Stay calm and collected. Be adult enough to take control of situation and transform your anger into something more productive and passive. As soon as people think your anger goes to volcanic proportions easily, they will find it hard to come to you.

10. Keep nurturing your relationships.

Your relationship with your family, friends and significant others is too precious that you must not neglect it whatever happens. Go out and have fun with them. Do things together. Happiness will never fly from your side as long as the people who matter the most are close to you.

In the end, using people for self-empowerment means becoming a better and more lovable person. It’s a win-win situation: the people know they can turn to you anytime and vice versa.

Almost everyone have heard the hit single ‘Don’t Worry, Be Happy’ by Bobby McFerrin. The song has a very catchy way of conveying its message of being happy to everyone. Bobby Mcferiin’s simple message surely made a lot of people by telling them not to worry.

Living a happy, resilient and optimistic life is wonderful, and is also good for your health. Being happy actually protects you from the stresses of life. Stress is linked to top causes of death such as heart disease, cancer and stroke.

One of the better things ever said is – ‘The only thing in life that will always remain the same is change’, and in our life we have the power to make the necessary changes if we want to. Even if we find ourselves in an unbearable situation we can always find solace in the knowledge that it too would change.

Social networks or relationships are essential to happiness. People are different, accept people for who or what they are, avoid clashes, constant arguments, and let go of all kinds of resentments. If arguments seem unavoidable still try and make an effort to understand the situation and you might just get along with well with

Happiness is actually found in everyone, increasing it is a way to make a life more wonderful and also more healthy.

To be happy is relatively easy, just decide to be a happy person. Abraham Lincoln observed that most people for most of the time can choose how happy or stressed, how relaxed or troubled, how bright or dull their outlook to be. The choice is simple really, choose to be happy.

There are several ways by which you can do this.

Being grateful is a great attitude. We have so much to be thankful for. Thank the taxi driver for bringing you home safely, thank the cook for a wonderful dinner and thank the guy who cleans your windows. Also thank the mailman for bringing you your mails, thank the policeman for making your place safe and thank God for being alive.

News is stressful. Get less of it. Some people just can’t start their day without their daily dose of news. Try and think about it, 99% of the news we hear or read is bad news. Starting the day with bad news does not seem to be a sensible thing to do.

A religious connection is also recommended. Being part of a religious group with its singing, sacraments, chanting, prayers and meditations foster inner peace.

Manage your time. Time is invaluable and too important to waste. Time management can be viewed as a list of rules that involves scheduling, setting goals, planning, creating lists of things to do and prioritizing. These are the core basics of time management that should be understood to develop an efficient personal time management skill. These basic skills can be fine tuned further to include the finer points of each skill that can give you that extra reserve to make the results you desire.

Laugh and laugh heartily everyday. Heard a good joke? Tell your friends or family about it. As they also say -’Laughter is the best medicine’.

Express your feelings, affections, friendship and passion to people around you. They will most likely reciprocate your actions. Try not to keep pent up anger of frustrations, this is bad for your health. Instead find ways of expressing them in a way that will not cause more injury or hurt to anyone.

Working hard brings tremendous personal satisfaction. It gives a feeling of being competent in finishing our tasks. Accomplishments are necessary for all of us, they give us a sense of value. Work on things that you feel worthy of your time.

Learning is a joyful exercise. Try and learn something new everyday. Learning also makes us expand and broaden our horizons. And could also give us more opportunities in the future.

Run, jog, walk and do other things that your body was made for. Feel alive.

Avoid exposure to negative elements like loud noises, toxins and hazardous places.

These are the few simple things you can do everyday to be happy.

And always remember the quote from Abraham Lincoln, he says that, “Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.”

What makes you happy?

Become happiness and happiness will become you.

All this is NO GOOD if you don’t implement it…

Studies in Psychology tell us that the effect you have on others depends
on what you say from the mouth (7%), the manner in which you say it (38%), and
by your body language (55%). In addition, how you sound also imparts a
message, so 93% of emotion is also conveyed without saying the actual words.
This is also true in selling. In the real world, we sell tangible items and also
ideas. A concise way on how we can sell effectively is by simply using that old
but very powerful arsenal known as body language.
When you sell, you can use postures, facial expressions, gestures,
mannerisms, and your physical appearance to close the sale successfully. Most
customers tend to buy when triggered by their senses. The key here is to do
everything you can to positively affect their senses.
Most people believed the image projected by Saint Mother Theresa is a
positive image. She used her personality to convey a constant image of holiness
and sincerity. We bought the idea of her image.
Non-verbal communication also connotes that a man of few words is a
man of credibility. It’s often not what you say that influences others; it’s what you
don’t say. The signals that you impart using body movements suggest
comprehension, disposition, morality, and compassion.
In selling, the instant you meet a target client, he is already examining you
based on your image and perception in a span of ten seconds or less. This is a
crucial moment in selling, as his first impression of you will definitely make a
permanent mark.
Whether you make or break a sale can literally depend on the non-verbal
signals that you send during this crucial first contact. It’s a must for readers of
this book to understand the facets of body language especially in selling.
Americans, for example, are somewhat categorized as one of the best in reading
body language, because they espouse thousands of non-verbal signs. This
ability makes them formidable negotiators.
In addition, women are generally considered to be more adept to body
language than men because of their natural built-in instincts. Now you know the
secret why some women are more successful than men in the business or
professional field.
As a rule of thumb, body language is being used most of the time all over
the world. The most common example is a nodding head (meaning “yes”).
But it is not necessarily the case every time. For example, shaking legs
might connote that a person is nervous, while it may just be a person’s natural
behavior. A person’s eyes could evade you because he’s hiding something, or it
could also mean that he’s extremely shy.
Given these intricacies, what’s important is to analyze what the message
really is. You can do it by looking at patterns. Look out for groups of signals that
may have the same meaning in relation to the verbal expressions, and also in
cognizance to the circumstances.
Once you have traced the patterns, it is easier to understand body
language. It will therefore help you make a sale.
Written below are some body language techniques to help make your
sales sizzle:
1. You can immediately analyze a person’s personality by studying his
style in shaking hands. An assertive person holds your hand firmly
when you shake his hand. On the other hand, an individual with little or
no confidence often gives a frail handshake. A person who wants to
win your trust would usually shake your hand with his other hand
covering the shake or holding your elbow. Adopt a handshake that is
firm, yet not crushing. Convey confidence and professionalism, not
dominance.
2. Posture is another aspect of body language. A slouching shoulder with
your eyes looking on the ground can indicate lack of interest. Standing
straight with your weight balanced on each foot gives you a more
assured and relaxed look. Always maintain a straight body, whether
you’re standing or sitting.
3. Match the straight open posture with a genuine facial expression.
Dispose of the sunglasses. The client may think that you are hiding
something, as he can’t see through your eyes. When he looks straight
in your eyes, he can tell if you are lying, so be transparent. Lay down
your cards and throw the shades away. But be sure to avoid piercing
looks. The client might get intimidated.
4. When doing sales calls and presentations, be sure to use sincere and
open movements all the time. Do not cross your arms, as this can ruin
the trust of your potential customer. The outward and upward gestures
of your hands are recommendable. If you lean back on a
chair and place your hands at the back of your head, it may drive your
clients away as this is a sure sign of arrogance and a false sense of
confidence. Meanwhile, if you place your hands on your waists, you
are exuding positive confidence.
5. “Don’t point.” Pointing at a client is equivalent to death wish in selling. It
is as if you’re waving your sales opportunity goodbye. Pointing is an
aggressive act that can be interpreted as hostility, so throw this gesture
out the window if you really want to sell.
6. In sales, here are signs that you are open for negotiations and are
willing to compromise. Unbuttoning your jacket means you are ready to
talk and to listen to a counter offer. Removing your jacket or rolling
your sleeves up is a very good sign for the client, as this means you
are ready to decide or to give in to the final price.
You, as the seller, may also use body language as a tool to recognize and
counteract any potential objections by the client. The usual scenarios include the
following:
1. If the client’s arms are crossed, it means he is disinterested. Use
counter measures like positive movements to cause them to uncross
their arms, and for you to begin the sales approach. When his arms
and legs are uncrossed, and his hands are open, this is the best
scenario, as they are open to your ideas…and a sale is more likely to
happen.
2. Another good sales scenario is when the client mimics your gestures
like when you fix your hair and the client follows. It shows he is very
receptive to your ideas and open to buy your idea or product. If this is
the case, throw all your barrage of features and benefits, and close the
sale! This point is crucial as you can make or break the sale.
3. If the client covers his mouth, touches his nose, or the part near the
eye, there’s a probability that you are losing the sale. Something you
said or did might have discouraged him. But don’t despair. Do the
selling process again; but this time, do it differently. Reassure the client
that he is getting a great deal and encourage him to open up and share
ideas. Open your palms and unconsciously let him see you
occasionally putting your palm to your chest (this signifies honesty).
Then try to reach that positive sales atmosphere again and close the
sale.
4. Always be alert to the signs the client is exhibiting. If the client shows
interest through his body movements, give the final sales blow and
close the sale. The client’s body language may change from positive to
suspecting. In this case, take it easy, gather your wits, read your
client’s moods, and try to win him back. Always exhibit openness and
sincerity. When the client crosses his legs and arms, this is a warning
signal.
You must make every effort to earn the trust of the client, so that you
ultimately can close the deal.
5. In worse cases where you are unable to close the sale, try to be
professional and diplomatic at all times. Thank the client for listening
and shake his hand with sincerity. Sales cannot be achieved overnight
and you generally win some and lose some. Closing the presentation
on a positive note will leave a good impression of you. Who knows, he
might be your next positive client at some other time.
Use your body every way you can in the selling process. Always be
enthusiastic. If you truly believe in the high quality of your product or service,
other people will be positively affected by your enthusiasm. Body movements can
convince prospects to become believers in what you are offering.

1. Love Yourself:

This can take a bit of practice and looks really funny, but try it, it works. When you wake up, give yourself a great big hug. Do the same when it’s time for sleep.

You’ve heard this said a million times before: “How can you expect others to love you if you don’t love yourself?” It’s true. Practice the morning and evening hugs for 2 weeks, maybe 3 weeks if you’re the stubborn type, and you’ll see how well it works.

2. Look in the mirror:

Every time you pass a mirror, look into it and flash your biggest and best smile at yourself. It might feel strange at first, but eventually it’ll make you feel brilliant about yourself. Tell yourself “Looking good!” or “Wow, I love me!” or similar phrases often enough to actually start believing it.

3. Do things that make you feel good:

This can be anything from listening to music, trekking in the Andes, doing some volunteer work or even just taking a shower. Anything that gives you a positive feeling about yourself works for this one.

4. Listen to YOU:

Face it. Nobody knows you better than you know yourself, no matter how many people try to tell you differently. So if your body, mind or gut is telling you something, then take notice of it, and don’t worry about what other people may possibly have to say about it.

5. Talk to YOU:

In times of stress, take a time-out break. Wander into your own mind and have a conversation with yourself about anything at all. Tell yourself how lucky you are to be you, and praise yourself for every good and positive thing you can attribute to yourself.

6. Remove negatives:

If anything feels like it’s dragging you down, get rid of it. If it’s clutter, tidy up, if it’s a friend full of negativity explain nicely that you don’t really feel up to talking right now. If it’s your kids acting up, leave the room for a while and so on.

7. Surround with positives:

Surround yourself with things that bring out good feelings in you. Examples could be things such as happy, upbeat friends, a nice new picture, a new car, an old comfy blanket, candles, pictures of your family, your girlfriend, boyfriend, spouse etc.

8. Rumours Die:

Did you hear something about somebody who said something about somebody else? Drop it! Rumours are nasty, horrible things that will only bring you down. Best way to kill a rumour? Ignore it!

9. Total Honesty:

Be totally honest with yourself at all times. If there’s something you don’t like, admit it. If there’s something you don’t want to do “right now” and it isn’t necessary for health and safety reasons then just don’t do it until you feel like it.

Same goes for the positive aspects. If there’s something you want to do, and it’s not hurting anybody, then go ahead and do it. If you start feeling great about yourself for no apparent reason admit it and enjoy the feeling.

10. Responsibility

Take full responsibility for your own actions. Don’t shove the blame for anything over onto someone or something else. We all make choices in our lives, and once we take responsibility for those choices we tend to choose better for ourselves.

Once we start to choose better, we feel better and things start falling into place. On the other hand, don’t take over someone else’s responsibilities just because you feel “you have to”.

11. Pretend:

If you feel unsafe, unsure or nervous then go inside yourself and pretend you’re a hot-shot lawyer, actor, actress, singer or whatever you need to be.
Make believe you’re presenting yourself as that person would until you feel better. Trust me, you WILL feel better, and eventually have no need to be anything but yourself.

12. Keep Trying:

If you’re trying to do something but don’t get it right first time round, then try again, and again, and again, constantly learning from your mistakes until you get it right. When you finally DO get it right, you’ll feel wonderful about it.

13. Credit where credit is due:

If you’ve done something really good, and people compliment you on it, accept the compliments with thanks! Understand that they’re complimenting because they really ARE impressed with what you’ve done.

Believe in you and give yourself a pat on the back. (Although physically it would probably be easier to just give yourself a round of applause).

14. Stand Tall:

Standing up straight will ALWAYS make you feel better about yourself than slouching does. Stand with your feet slightly apart, suck in your tummy and behind, broaden your shoulders and straighten your neck. It’s an amazingly quick confidence boost.

15. Say Hello:

Make it a rule to say hi to at least one person you don’t know EVERY day. Give them the smile you flash at yourself in the mirror, the biggest and best one you can find. They’ll smile back automatically, and they’ll walk away with a little extra confidence boost thanks to you.

People look their best when they smile, and they also feel better by smiling too! This ultimately means you get a confidence boost too, for making someone else feel good about themselves.

16. Never Say Never….Ever:

If you think something can’t be done, then you’ll end up proving yourself right eventually. So never say never, just keep plugging along until it works for you.
If other people are telling you it can’t be done, you’re going to feel such immense satisfaction at actually doing it that your confidence will soar.

17. Get Active:

Don’t sit around the house just doing nothing. Get up, go out, cycling, walking, exercising, anything that might invigorate your brain. A lively brain full of thoughts will help you gain confidence.

18. “Happy Foods”:

Happy foods, such as chocolate, strawberries, lemons, ice-cream etc will increase the serotonin levels in your brain, leading to an increased feeling of happiness.

Feeling happy is a natural confidence boost. So go on, enjoy your food! (in moderation, of course).

19. Face Your Fear:

Is there something you are afraid of? Face it full on. Doing something scary and overcoming the fear is a fantastic way to boost your confidence. So go on, jump out of that plane (with a parachute of course), drive that car, speak in front of a large crowd, ask for a promotion, or whatever it is that scares you. You’ll feel absolutely brilliant once it’s done.

20. Willpower:

Create a goal that you really want to reach. Possibly something like weight loss before a certain time, giving up smoking or having a certain amount of money in the bank within so many months etc. Take baby steps, and use your willpower until you succeed at reaching your goal.

It will be really hard, as will power can be very elusive at times, but keep going and don’t give up. Once you have reached that first goal by using your willpower you will have the confidence to create new goals AND reach them.

21. Ask questions:

Any time you find yourself worrying about something you haven’t done, or something you think you should have done, ask yourself positive questions. Instead of thinking “I’m terrible for missing my friend’s birthday” think “What can I do to make my friend feel special?”

Or, instead of “Why can’t I ever seem to do things on time?” change it to “What can I change to better manage my time” Creating positive questions will release the negative energies which have a tendency to pull down your self confidence.

22. Learn:

Accept that not everything works out the way we plan it. Decide to accept any mistakes and rejections as part of a learning curve that we all need to go through.

Without mistakes, you can’t learn from your own experiences. Remember, experience builds confidence, so always learn as much as you can.

23. List:

Write a list of every single thing you’re good at, anything from clipping the dog’s toenails to putting up a shelf. Take the time to sit and actually think about what you ARE good at and add them all to the list. You’ll be surprised at how many things you end up jotting down, no matter how minor or trivial they may seem at the time.

Whenever you have a spare 5 minutes, or if you’re feeling a little low, take the list out of your pocket and read it. This is a great little way to give yourself a nice confidence boost.

24: Help out:

There are lots of ways to help others, and feeling useful and helpful are great ways of building your confidence. Just make sure you do things because you WANT to do them. You could call a good friend who may be down at the moment-even take them out for coffee, you will brighten both your days, or you could possibly help out at an old folks home or similar. Knowing that people appreciate your help will boost your confidence for sure.

25: Show the way:

Think of the one thing you do best of all. Think long and hard about this one. Thought of something? Now, find a discussion group or similar related to that topic and spread your wisdom by answering questions, offering advice or help to anybody needing it. If you can’t find a group, you could even start one yourself.

People will look up to you and that will give you all the more reason to feel confident about yourself.

Please share this with a friend or family member.

What you give you get to keep!

Here’s a really simple way… of looking at your failures.  You simply talked yourself out of success. You were not willing to pay the price upfront.  When you bargain with the price of success you ultimately lose. Your tendency of bargaining with the price is because of “Excusitis”.

Many people talk themselves into success.  But even more people talk themselves out of success.  They begin to have conversations about why they should not achieve.  Why they do not deserve what they want.  They have all the reasons to why they can’t do something.  And the moment they do that, they have no idea where to look for resources.  This may or may not be you, but if you know someone who would benefit from this article then perhaps you should forward this to them.

This article would help them to cure Excusitis.

Step Number 1:

The first way is to be held accountable to a mentor or a good friend for your goal.

By being held accountable, you would activate the resources in your mind to go about solving a problem.  The reason why goals are hard to hit is because of problems. When you commit to your friend or mentor, you would stop making excuses to yourself on not even trying.

This is a great way to break the cycle of making excuses.  Even before stepping out to attempt the goal.

Stop talking yourself out of success.  Prevent all negative mind chatter by being held accountable.

Step Number 2:

Tell your mentor or friend if you had done what you resolved to do or not.

This is highly effective in curing excusitis.  When you tell someone whom you respect that you are going to do something, you would more or less find a way to do it.  You would feel really bad if you had to go to a friend and tell them excuses about why you did not resolve to do what you said you would do.

Step Number 3:

To prevent yourself from using excuses too easily, you may want to use the power of visualization.

Visualize how silly and how weak you look when you are telling your mentor friend that you did not do what you said you would do.

Amplify that the feeling, intensify that picture by making it bigger and brighter.  Feel how you would feel when you’re totally belittled and weakened.  How would you sit?  How would you speak?  How embarrassed would you be in front of them?

Then change the picture.  Visualize yourself in the state of success.  Imagine yourself telling them how triumphant you were in accomplishing the goal.  Feel the feeling of total competence and confidence that you can accomplish almost anything you set out to do.  Amplify that feeling by 10 times, 20 times.  Close your eyes and at the peak of that feeling, clench your fist tightly. See what you would say to yourself when you’re feeling that joy of accomplishment.

Excusitis is definitely curable.  This disease if left untreated, would definitely kill all your success cells.  The cure for it is a daily dosage of accountability to yourself and people around you who wants you to succeed.  It really isn’t too difficult to cure Excusitis.  The only difficulty is in the courage of stepping out and attempting to achieve what you want to achieve.  When a sense of what you want is overwhelmingly greater than your sense of fear, success inevitably follows.

Not only would you be able to cure Excusitis easily, you would begin to feel that it is easy for you to help others cure it.  It is definitely a wonderful feeling to support others in their pursuit of their goals.  But before we can do that wholeheartedly, we must be able to cure any weaknesses we have.  Is Excusitis holding you back?  If it is, now you have the answer.  You are reading this.  It definitely means that you have the resources and wherewithal to overcome any challenges.  Even Excusitis.

Call Me…I want to hear from you…!

I’ve got a confession to make…, I was not always practicing what I preached. Some applications of success requires so much discipline that a 100% is just not easy. This is one of them.

If you feel that you are always looked over for a promotion, or that your prospects run away from you whenever you attempt to make a sale, this article would do you wonders! No promotion equals no income increment. No customers equals no profit. To instantly eradicate this major problem, follow this simple formula:

$$$ = value ADDED

But as I suggested, it is simple, but difficult. The only key to overcoming your income problems is adding your value.

T. Harv Eker once said this. “Don’t ask how I can earn more money, ask how many more people can I help.”

He believes that the amount of money you earn is proportional to the number of people you serve / help. And the relationship is not linear! The money compounds with more people you serve!!!

The formula employer uses to pay you your salary is:

(Value you bring to the company) / 10

In other words, employers will pay you exactly one tenth of the value you create for the company.

If you want to get a raise of $500, you must first demonstrate to your employer how you can bring in an extra $5,000 worth of business every month!

And if you do this on a consistent basis, asking for a raise from the added value you create, very soon, other companies would ask you to come over to help them with their business. That way, you would increase that factor by which you are remunerated! That is exactly the reason why consultants are paid so much! Jay Abraham consults for USD$5,000 per hour, with a minimum of 4 hours per consultation. Why is he able to demand so much? Because the change and value he create in the company is 20 or 30 folds!!!

This article spills the beans on how your employer values you. You can look up any books on business startups and you will find a chapter on staff remuneration. If this information surprises you, then I wonder how you would go about your work differently. This simple formula is simple, but difficult to follow. If you truly want more, either for yourself, your family, or your pet, then this is definitely the formula you want to live by. That is if you choose to remain a wage earner, putting the fate of income in the hands of someone else.

Think up all the areas you can contribute to your company’s business and match it with your core skill set. Begin to sit up, focus and watch your income go off the roof!!!

It starts with you deciding you want to make a difference…is something holding you back and it quite doesn’t make sense then check out the link below…

Stay Strong!

How many times have you… sabotaged your own success? You had worked so hard, paid so much money, and done so much work, but you end up punching yourself in the face and dragging yourself back into mediocrity. You may relate to what I’m saying right now. Successful people know how to have conversations with themselves. The results of the conversation determine who in your mind wins. One of the success skills is to train your mind. For the untrained mind, conversations with it ultimately result in the fearful one winning.

If you want to achieve your goals gracefully and easily, you have come to the right article. This article does not encourage you to the all gung ho and hoohah. If you ever found yourself speaking to your own little voice and losing to it, this article would be very useful to you. The information in this article would teach you how to train your mind using the power of conversation.

The first thing you need to do is to recognize that you do have conversations with your mind.

Begin to censor all negative thoughts. When disempowering thoughts come to mind, just tell your mind, thank you for sharing. You cannot control your mind from chattering, but you can control where the chatter filters.

Having conversations with your negative thoughts may not always be a bad thing. The only time it is bad is when you ultimately lose to it.

In the book,” Peak Performance Presentations”, the little voice in your head is known as the inner critic. The inner critic is there because you have not developed enough belief for your mind to totally be convinced at what you can accomplish. You’d then have to have a conversation with it to persuade it to believe in you.

The way to persuade it is by putting the seed of possibility. Instead of saying, “I can do it”, say instead,” what if I could do it?”

This invites your mind to explore the possibilities. In this way, it is easier to trick your mind into thinking that what you intend to do is possible.

Have conversations with your mentor or your supportive friend.

Speaking to mentors and friends helps you to develop a belief that what you want is achievable. To be honest, many great thinkers and many great achievers never knew how they would achieve it. But only knew that eventually they would.

The reason why they have such strong conviction is because they have people around them who believe that they can.

You need to surround yourself with such people. Begin to have empowering conversations with all these people. This is pro-active brainwash. Brainwashing is not always bad. You must wash your brain off all the negativity and grime and dirt that you had accumulated over the decades.

Conversations can be trivial, but at the same time, it can contribute to your success if you know how to apply it. It is almost fun having a conversation with your mind and knowing that you can rewire yourself for success. Wouldn’t it be fun and amazing if you could simply hypnotize yourself towards success? How easy would it be to achieve anything you want simply by having conversations with your mind?

It may sound too easy, but you’ll never know until you test it out. Conversations are not easy to master. Especially empowering ones. The reward of having conversations with yourself and winning is invaluable. The joy and gift of having conversations with winners and champions is invaluably rewarding too. Begin today to have conversations within both the champion in you and around you.
