Success comes from within… not from the outside…

I hear of so many people wanting to quit programs because their sponsor is not there for them, or is no longer with the program.

Let me give you a clue, folks. Your sponsor is not responsible for your success. Your chosen program is not responsible for your success. You, and YOU alone are responsible for your success.

Being an Entrepreneur is about taking the lead and leading, not following. Leaders gather their resources and then they take action. They don’t need anyone to tell them what to do, when to do it, or how to do it – they just do it. Their bosses used to tell them what to do. As an Entrepreneur, you are your own boss – you give the directions to yourself now.

Success is a mindset. Just as failure is a mindset. You have to have a successful mindset in order to be successful. If you have a failure mindset, then no matter what you do, you will be destined to fail.

Our brains are like a programmable mechanism. What you feed it, determines the outcome from it. If you program yourself with thoughts of “I’m not worthy”, “I don’t deserve it”, “I can’t do this”, “I’ll never get this right”, “I’ll never be as successful as so and so”, or anything of the like, then situations will present themselves to prove you right. And vice versa – if you program yourself with thoughts of “I am successful”, “I am worthy”, “I am deserving”, “I can do this”, then situations will present themselves to prove you right.

You have to decide to be successful. You have to decide that you are worth it and deserve it. You have to decide that you can and will do it. You have to decide to be more successful than you’ve ever been before.

One thing you can do, is stop comparing yourself to others. Because, let me tell you, you will never measure up to someone else. But, guess what? You’re not supposed to. You are YOU. You are not like others, and others are not like you. We are all individuals and we should treat ourselves as such.

I understand that there is a lot of competition out there and that we have had it beat in our brains since birth that we need to be better than someone else. But in all reality, the only one we are in competition with is ourselves. If we can just be better than ourselves each day than we were the day before, that’s what it’s all about.

We have to stop looking to outside sources to “make” us a success. Success is all about you and what you want. Not what your parents want, not what your co-workers want, not what your neighbors want, but what YOU want.

If YOU want to be a success, look within yourself and ask yourself if that is what you truly want. Do you really want that success? Are you ready for success? Are you comfortable with success? Do you really want to be an Entrepreneur, your own boss? Are you really comfortable making the kind of money you envision making? Are you ready to change your mindset – everything that you have known so far to be “true”? I know it can be done. Do you?

It’s all up to you. You just have to decide that you want it and then do it. Believe in yourself and you’ll fly high. You can be a success if you choose to be. Success comes from within, it starts with you, and it ends with you.

There’s More To Life, folks, than just existing…

So many people wander aimlessly through life. They have no direction. They have no goals. They have no dreams.

Your average life does not have to be as good as it gets. There is more to life if you want it.

There are a few quotes I’ve heard over the years…

“If You Don’t Know Where You’re Going, How Will You Know Once You’re There?”
“If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there.”
“If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll probably end up somewhere else.”

These are so true. If you don’t know where you are going, how are you ever going to get there? And if you don’t know where you’re going, well, anywhere you land, will be where you were going… Do you really want to leave it to chance? Do you really just want to accept whatever comes down the pike?

If going to work every day, sitting in a little cubicle or behind a desk, moaning and complaining about how awful it is and how miserable you are… If sitting around watching the “boob tube” or as we like to say “electronic income reducer”… If playing games all day, like Farmville, Mafia Wars, or World of Warcraft (WoW)… If those are all things that you do… I like to call those survival tactics and time wasters. That isn’t really living… that’s just existing and passing time.

There is more to life than just that. Life shouldn’t be deduced into simply existing and surviving… That’s boring and unproductive. I can’t believe that most people live like that. It’s like they are totally blinded to the potential within themselves to be something more, to have a life worth living and enjoying…

I challenge you to think about what you would like your life to be like if there were no limitations on time or finances or ability. Truly think about the things that you want out of life. What is your vision of a perfect life? What would your daily activities be? Think about this – in fact, give it a LOT of thought. Map it out in your mind. Make sure to include all of your senses – what it looks like, sounds like, feels like, smells like, even tastes like. The more of your senses you involve, the stronger the vision, the stronger the vision, the more you program yourself for what it is you truly want.

Now… it’s not just as easy as thinking about what you want out of life and creating your map in your mind. You have to take the necessary actions to bring about the goals you seek. You must take the actions necessary to move you in the right direction towards that vision.

Some people use whiteboards to write phrases on, or a bulletin board to put pictures on. I go one step further. I make “Mind Movies“. A mind movie is a video that includes both the phrases and pictures which can help stimulate more of the senses to give you a more vivid experience in helping you realize your dreams than the stand alone methods can.

Once you have decided what it is you want, and have it all mapped out in your head, and put it down on something, whether it’s writing it out, putting phrases on a whiteboard, putting pictures on a bulletin board, or making a Mind Movie, you have to take the appropriate action to get yourself there. You can’t just visualize it and then think that all you have to do is wait for it to come to you. Nothing is achieved from laziness. You have to take the ideas and inspirations you will receive and then roll with them.

Once you decide where it is that you want to go, the universe will mysteriously direct you on how to get there. Opportunities will pop up, you will get ideas and/or inspirations of things you can do. When that happens, you have to grab the bull by the horns and go for it. This is the universe directing you towards what you want. Don’t ignore it. This is your chance to create the life that you want.

Now… if watching TV, playing games, and merely existing or surviving is what you want out of life. Well, more power to you, I can’t stop you. As long as you enjoy your life, that’s what matters. Each one of us has a role to play in this universe. Not everyone wants the same thing.

For me, though, I believe that there’s more to life than just that, and I’m going to do everything in my power to make it happen!

Until next time…

Take Care and Create Your Greatest Day!

Have you stopped to think about you? About what YOU want? Not what you think others want, but what YOU truly want? Well, start now. No one is going to think about what YOU want, except for YOU.

A lot of people don’t think of what they want. They think about what other people want. They may think that they are thinking about what they want, but they would be wrong.

Too many times when thinking about what we want, we let other’s opinions factor in on what we think we are wanting for ourselves. Too many times we are thinking about what we think we are supposed to be thinking about. It’s time to stop that nonsense and start truly focusing in on ourselves and what we really want.

What do you want out of life? What kind of life do you want to have? And like I said, stop taking into consideration what you think others expect out of you. What do YOU expect out of you?

If you like stamp collecting, but you think that others will think you are lame or whatever for that. Stop thinking of them. Think of YOU. Do YOU enjoy it? Then DO it! Do what YOU enjoy.

Life is precious and we should be doing the things that make us happy and give us fulfillment. If we don’t then we have spent our lifetime wasted. Stop wasting your life and make decisions for yourself based on YOURSELF.
