Enjoy Your Life : Change Your Point of View

Enjoy Your Life : Change Your Point of View

"Two men look out through the same bars : One sees the mud, and one sees the stars." -- Frederick Langbridge, A Cluster of Quiet Thoughts.

If you’ve placed second in a writing contest, will you jump for joy and push for better results the next time or will you be discouraged and find an excuse not to join again ?

In life, you are always filled with choices. You may opt to have a pessimist’s view and live a self-defeated life or you may decide to take the optimist’s route and take a challenging and fulfilling life.

So why nurture an optimist’s point of view ? And why now ?

Well, optimism has been linked to positive mood and good morale ; to academic, athletic, military, occupational and political success ; to popularity ; to good health and even to long life and freedom from trauma.

On the other hand, the rates of depression and pessimism have never been higher. It affects middle-aged adults the same way it hits younger people. The mean age of onset has gone from 30 to 15. It is no longer a middle-aged housewife’s disorder but also a teen-ager’s disorder’ as well.

Here’s how optimists are in action and researches that back up why it really pays to be an optimist :

Optimists expect the best

The defining characteristic of pessimists is that they tend to believe bad events, which will last a long time and undermine everything they do, are their own fault.

The truth is optimists are confronted with the same hard knocks of this world. What differs is the way they explain their misfortune -- it’s the opposite way. They tend to believe defeat is just a temporary setback, that its causes are confined to this one case.

Optimists tend to focus on and plan for the 'problem' at hand. They use 'positive reinterpretation.' In other words, they most likely reinterpret a negative experience in a way that helps them learn and grow. Such people are unfazed by bad situation, they perceive it is a challenge and try harder.

They won’t say “things will never get better,” “If I failed once, it will happen again” and “If I experience misfortune in one part of my life, then it will happen in my whole life.”

Positive expectancies of optimists also predict better reactions during transitions to new environments, sudden tragedies and unlikely turn of events. If they fall, they will stand up. They see opportunities instead of obstacles.

People respond positively to optimists

Optimists are proactive and less dependent on others for their happiness. They find no need to control or manipulate people. They usually draw people towards them. Their optimistic view of the world can be contagious and influence those they are with.

Optimism seems a socially desirable trait in all communities. Those who share optimism are generally accepted while those who spread gloom, panic and hysteria are treated unfavorably.

In life, these people often win elections ; get voted most congenial and sought for advice.

When the going gets tough, optimists get tougher

Optimists typically maintain higher levels of subjective well-being during times of stress than do people who are less optimistic. In contrast, pessimists are likely to react to stressful events by denying that they exist or by avoiding dealing with problems. Pessimists are more likely to quit trying when difficulties arise.

They persevere. They just don’t give up easily, they are also known for their patience. Inching their way a step closer to that goal or elusive dream.

Optimists are healthier and live longer

Medical research has justified that simple pleasures and a positive outlook can cause a measurable increase in the body's ability to fight disease.

Optimists’ health is unusually good. They age well, much freer than most people from the usual physical ills of middle age. And they get to outlive those prone to negative thoughts.

So why not be an optimist today ? And think positively towards a more fulfilled life. Why not look forward to success in all your endeavors ? Why not be resilient ?

Like everybody else you are bound to hit lows sometimes but don’t just stay there. Carry yourself out of the mud and improve your chances of getting back on the right track. And why not inspire others to remove their dark-colored glasses and see life in the bright side ? Learn more over here ...

Impossible is Just a Word

Impossible is Just a Word

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 home coming 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. Learn more over here ...

Build Your Self Esteem

Build Your Self Esteem

Self Improvement Starter Guide #1

So how do you stay calm, composed and maintain self esteem in a tough environment ?

Here are some tips you may to consider as a starter guide to self improvement.

Imagine yourself as a Dart Board. Everything and everyone else around you may become Dart Pins, at one point or another. These dart pins will destroy your self esteem and pull you down in ways you won’t even remember. Don’t let them destroy you, or get the best of you. So which dart pins should you avoid ?

Dart Pin #1 : Negative Work Environment
Beware of “dog eat dog” theory where everyone else is fighting just to get ahead. This is where non-appreciative people usually thrive. No one will appreciate your contributions even if you miss lunch and dinner, and stay up late. Most of the time you get to work too much without getting help from people concerned.

Stay out of this, it will ruin your self esteem. Competition is at stake anywhere. Be healthy enough to compete, but in a healthy competition that is.

Dart Pin #2 : Other People’s Behavior
Bulldozers, brown nosers, gossipmongers, whiners, backstabbers, snipers, people walking wounded, controllers, naggers, complainers, exploders, patronizers, sluffers ... all these kinds of people will pose bad vibes for your self esteem, as well as to your self improvement scheme.

Dart Pin #3 : Changing Environment
You can’t be a green bug on a brown field. Changes challenge our paradigms. It tests our flexibility, adaptability and alters the way we think. Changes will make life difficult for awhile, it may cause stress but it will help us find ways to improve our selves. Change will be there forever, we must be susceptible to it.

Dart Pin #4 : Past Experience
It’s okay to cry and say “ouch !” when we experience pain. But don’t let pain transform itself into fear. It might grab you by the tail and swing you around. Treat each failure and mistake as a lesson.

Dart Pin #5 : Negative World View
Look at what you’re looking at. Don’t wrap yourself up with all the negativities of the world. In building self esteem, we must learn how to make the best out of worst situations.

Dart Pin #6 : Determination Theory
The way you are and your behavioral traits is said to be a mixed end product of your inherited traits ( genetics ), your upbringing ( psychic ), and your environmental surroundings such as your spouse, the company, the economy or your circle of friends. You have your own identity. If your father is a failure, it doesn’t mean you have to be a failure too. Learn from other people’s experience, so you’ll never have to encounter the same mistakes.

Sometimes, you may want to wonder if some people are born leaders or positive thinkers. NO. Being positive, and staying positive is a choice. Building self esteem and drawing lines for self improvement is a choice, not a rule or a talent. God wouldn’t come down from heaven and tell you – “George, you may now have the permission to build self esteem and improve your self.”

In life, its hard to stay tough specially when things and people around you keep pulling you down. When we get to the battle field, we should choose the right luggage to bring and armors to use, and pick those that are bullet proof.

Life’s options give us arrays of more options. Along the battle, we will get hit and bruised. And wearing a bullet proof armor ideally means ‘self change’. The kind of change which comes from within. Voluntarily. Armor or Self Change changes 3 things : our attitude, our behavior and our way of thinking.

Building self esteem will eventually lead to self improvement if we start to become responsible for who we are, what we have and what we do. Its like a flame that should gradually spread like a brush fire from inside and out. When we develop self esteem, we take control of our mission, values and discipline.

Self esteem brings about self improvement, true assessment, and determination. So how do you start putting up the building blocks of self esteem ? Be positive. Be contented and happy. Be appreciative. Never miss an opportunity to compliment. A positive way of living will help you build self esteem, your starter guide to self improvement. Learn more over here ...

Patterns Of Excellence

Patterns Of Excellence

Change is in Your Hands

Many people are put off from achieving what they really want to do in life simply because they do not have belief in themselves that they can, for these people the words “if only” are their first thought. Little do they realize that they have the power within themselves to accomplish anything if they are willing to change themselves ?

Simply by changing how you think and feel gives you the power to change your life to the one you want, where everything is possible and within reach. Too often people think that change is beyond their control and so feel totally powerless to do anything to change the situation, however simply by changing ourselves or our outlook on life we can begin to take charge of our lives and make the changes needed.

Decide what it is you want from life

The first step to changing is deciding what it is exactly that you wish to change in your life or yourself, do you wish to change you yourself or is there some aspect in your life that you wish to change ?

Write down exactly what it is that you wish to change, making a list of everything that you aren’t happy with and what changes you wish to make. How we feel about ourselves has a lot to do with how we see life, if we are full of self-doubt and no confidence then this shows in how we present ourselves, too much self-doubt gets us down so the first step to taking your life back into your own hands is to change your outlook.

Taking the first steps

The first thing you should realize is that you and only you has the power to change and the secret to this is freeing your mind and body to start moving forward and making the changes needed.

With a more positive attitude you will be able to change the way you feel and react and more importantly what you are able to achieve, you will be able to do this because you will have a different attitude towards life in general, others around you and how you are able to handle situations.

Of course the changes will be small in the beginning but slowly you will begin to realize that changes are happening and it is you that is making this happen, you don’t have to rely on anyone else. Along with the positive changes you will feel better, have more self-esteem, confidence, be more enthusiastic and be self-motivated.

Taking responsibility for your life and realizing that you alone hold the power to the changes that are happening around you will bring enormous self-satisfaction if you simply remember to always keep an open mind and remember that you have nothing to lose.

Lets me recommend a complete step-by-step system that will literally program you for success and help you achieve the goals you want in life. The Patterns Of Excellence from Adam Khoo.

P.S. : All the rich and successful people in the world must be doing or possessing something similar that have allowed them to achieve the success they have in life. Success doesn't happen by chance. So what's the secret behind all these people ? The secret is that they all possess the "Patterns Of Excellence".

Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires

Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires

What would it take to become a self-made millionaire ? Does the mere thought of it feel like wishful thinking ? Or maybe just a bit intimidating ?

Of course, any project, especially one as challenging as turning yourself into a self-made millionaire, will go better if you have someone to guide you through the process, someone who has personally achieved what you’re striving towards.

Imagine you could have your own personal self-made millionaire mentor who will share exactly how he did it and who will guide you through the process ? Do you think this would help – a lot ?

I’m sure you do. But your old, non-millionaire mindset will immediately ask the kinds of questions that are certain to sabotage your success : But aren’t mentors incredibly expensive ? It depends on how the mentorship works. Sure, hours of phone support and personal meetings will probably be out of reach for just about anybody who would need that kind of help.

But here’s a way that’s much more affordable. Adam Khoo, a self-made millionaire by age 26, and now a multi-millionaire and best-selling author as well as in-demand speaker, has produced an audio coaching program where he discloses all the secret ingredients of becoming seriously rich. And the best thing, he guides you every step of the way. He’s by your side with encouragement and guidance, with motivation, and with very specific and detailed examples. Once you listen to his explanations and work through the workbooks, getting wealthy will suddenly feel a lot more doable.

How does Adam accomplish this feat ? First of all, he shares how he himself became a millionaire, starting with his school days, where he transformed himself from a miserable failure to a top student in a very short time. And where he went out to teach others how to do the same. And turned that into money ! Adam’s inspiring story and his enthusiasm will give you a big boost.

Before you begin, you probably wonder if you even had it in you to become a millionaire. Surely, those amazing people who have accomplished that feat have really special gifts, you may think.

You’ll quickly discover that that’s not the case. Adam assures you that we all have the same gifts. It’s just that some of us use them more skillfully than others. And in his audio coaching program, he is going to teach you how you too can transform yourself into a person who puts his or her gifts to the best possible use.

Chances are you have read other books about “millionaire secrets” before and have found yourself utterly frustrated because they were filled with promises that weren’t fulfilled. It all sounded good, but every time you were looking for actual how-to information, the books came up empty. This is not the case with Adam’s program. He delivers specifics.

Sure, Adam includes plenty of pep talks along with a bit of tough love, and you’ll need it all. Why ? Because there’s real work involved in becoming a millionaire. Meditating on it won’t make it happen. Yet the right mindset paired with the right kind of concerted effort will. And Adam’s program gives you the tools to get it right and shows you how to apply them.

What will you get ?

The program consists of 12 downloadable audio lessons that average about 45 to 55 minutes each, with some of them more than an hour long. And Adam talks fast, and packs a lot of information into each one. You’ll see just how much when you look at the transcripts that are also included as PDF documents.

The lessons include the following :

* 7 Steps to Financial Freedom
* Developing the Million Dollar Mindset
* How the Rich Manage Cash Flow
* Strategies to Massively Increase your Income ( TWO lessons on that one ! )
* Managing Money and Controlling Expenses
* Creating Multiple Streams of Income Online ( TWO lessons on that one too ! )
* Investing Like Warren Buffett ( TWO lessons here too ! )
* Growing Your Money at Millionaire Returns ( TWO lessons ! )
* Designing Your Millionaire Road Map

The topics sound very enticing, and unlike a lot of other programs, Adam delivers. He really does give you the nitty-gritty how-to for all of the above.

For example, the two lessons on online income are among the clearest, fuss-free, and comprehensive guides to internet marketing I have encountered to date.

And the strategies to massively increase your income are just plain brilliant as are those in the rest of the program. Adam tells you how you can increase your value to your employer exponentially – and command the salary increases to match. And that’s just for starters. Wish I had known those earlier. In fact, that’s what I kept thinking while listening to most of this program.

In his investing lessons, all four of them, Adam provides more information than even an armful of books ever would. He teaches you how to pick stocks, how long to keep them, and so on. It’s very comprehensive, and you can literally get started after just working your way through this program.

And while 12 audios and the matching transcripts would provide plenty of value for your money, especially considering the content, that’s not all.

You’ll also get bonuses :

You’ll get a manual of more than 200 pages, which is both a workbook with space for you to fill in as you work yourself through the process, and a quickie overview over the program, complete with graphics and tables that you’ll find yourself referring to again and again.

And then there are 7 spread sheets, which help you with determining your own net worth, your income statement, making money on the internet with the internet profit formula, and, yes, pick the right stocks ! Or tell if you’ve picked the right ones. And when to sell them too.

In the program itself, Adam covers a huge territory as you can see from the titles of the lessons above. He helps you explore your attitudes about money, and, very importantly, change the ones that don’t serve you. If you worry what would happen if you were to actually make money, you probably won’t make much. And if you do, self-fulfilling prophecy goes right to work and helps you live up – or down – to your expectations.

Adam is a very enthusiastic speaker and a fast talker, which means, that you may sometimes wish you could rewind. In fact, the pace of his presentation style is a bit on the fast side. I kept wanting to tell him to slow down. He also has a Singapore accent for obvious reasons and coupled with the fast pace it can occasionally.

But what really counts is what he delivers, and he delivers a terrific blueprint for becoming a self-made millionaire. All the info you need is right here. Just add action, stir, and watch your net worth grow.

These 7 steps alone will guarantee anyone's financial future. The only trouble is no one out there actually knows or even uses these steps !

To get the full scoop about the 7 steps and to find out more about how you can become a financial success, I recommend you have a look at this. You will not be disappointed.

Master Your Mind , Design Your Destiny

Master Your Mind , Design Your Destiny

Do you ever wish you had more time, money, or other resources ? If only you had all those things, you believe, you could make all your dreams come true. Alas, you don’t, and so, year after year, your dreams stay just that : dreams.

But it doesn’t have to be like that. Lets me recommend one of the best and favourite motivational books that i have.

In this book, "Master Your Mind, Design Your Destiny", Adam Khoo argues that all those perceived limitations are just illusions. The fact is, he writes, we all have everything we need to be successful. We just need to learn how to put it to use. And in this book, he teaches exactly how it’s done.

He starts with the premise that we all have basically the same neurological make-up. We all have roughly the same 1,000 billion neurons in our brains. It’s what we make of them that makes the difference.

So how is it that some people are able to accomplish so much with their 1,000 billion nerve cells, and others accomplish zilch ? Adam argues that the key to those differences lies in the behaviors and habits that get installed while we grow up. The majority of people are not exactly brought up with a winning mindset. And unfortunately, most of those people never question what they do and never change their habits. It probably never occurs to them that they could. But of course we CAN change habits, behaviors and beliefs by stimulating our brains in the right way and creating new mental patterns.

The technology Adam uses to reprogram the mind is NLP, i.e., Neurolinguistic Programming, which has proven to be highly effective at that task. And after carefully reading it, I found that Master Your Mind is not just another book on NLP, useful as that may be, but it actually goes far beyond that.

First of all, Adam’s Master Your Mind offers a comprehensive, thorough, and easy-to-follow description of the actual techniques that are necessary to accomplish that goal. But it doesn’t stop there. It’s also an extensive workbook that helps the reader to put all those techniques to use right away. Thirdly, it offers a wealth of inspiring examples.

Adam Khoo himself is a case in point.

Starting out as an academically weak student at the very bottom of the pile, he used some of those very strategies he teaches here to reprogram himself and turn himself into a top student. Moreover, unlike his fellow students who were satisfied with a normal career path and income come graduation, he set himself the goal to become a millionaire by age 26 – and achieved it.

He started his first business while still in high school, and several more while in college, and he even became a best-selling author with his book on how to become an excellent student. He developed a program called Patterns of Excellence that he used to teach others to repattern their mind to achieve success as well.

So Adam is quite an inspiration indeed. And he provides us with many more inspirational examples throughout the book, from Sylvester Stallone to Richard Branson.

From the outset, Adam urges us to have the right mindset : And one of the key parts of that mindset is planning for success by setting specific goals, developing strategies to achieve those goals, and putting them into action.

Of course, if you do enough challenging things, some of them will not work out as planned, which is something most people call “failure” and try to avoid at all cost. Adam, however, argues that there’s no such thing really. What may seem like failure is just feedback, and that attitude is essential for achieving any goal because paying attention to feedback helps us stay or get back on the right track and accomplish our goals.

He also introduces two more essential ingredients : an empowering belief system, and the right kinds of values. He doesn’t leave it at that, but provides plenty of specifics and work sheets that help his readers to establish those for themselves.

Next, Adam takes away our excuses ! He urges us to stop playing the victim. Instead, he shows that taking absolute responsibility for everything that happens in your life is the key to self-empowerment. Which, by the way, does NOT mean blaming yourself. Far from it. Instead, it means that when something doesn’t go according to plan, you ask yourself what YOU can do to turn things around. Whether it’s customers that won’t buy or colleagues that are uncooperative, reclaim your power to change things. And the only person whose actions you really have control over is you.

And so, this is what it means that you can only change what you take responsibility for. If you believe something is out of your control, how could you possibly do something about it ?

Adam takes it even further : not only does he challenge his readers to take responsibility for their results, but also for how they feel. This book is not for whiners but for people who are prepared to do serious work on themselves.

And in keeping with that, each chapter features exercises and action questions that guide the reader through that work that will, as the book promises, help them master their mind.

Among the key aspects of Adam’s mind mastery program are beliefs and how to take control of them and turn them into the kind that will get results. He calls them the “tap to our personal potential” and provides evidence that they can even change our biochemistry.

Once again, that section is followed by an extensive workbook section where you can track down any limiting beliefs and change them into empowering ones.

And that’s just for starters. Adam goes on to provide detailed instructions on how to achieve key performance by gaining control of your emotional states. There’s a long section on successful modeling, one of the key concepts of NLP and a key tool for achieving success.

Next, a detailed chapter on how to manage your brain, with how to take control of all the aspects of your perception and imagination, by manipulating its submodalities, along with instructions on associating and disassociating. While I’ve read about these before, I’ve never seen them treated so clearly and in this much detail. Once again, it comes with detailed workbook so you can actually do it and not just read about it.

Of course, the techniques for manipulating submodalities and emotional states serve a purpose, to motivate yourself, to overcome procrastination, to remove intense negative emotions and change them into neutral ones, to change cravings to disgust, and much more.

He even shows how to use the swish pattern technique to change lifelong habits almost instantly, including how to move from hitting the snooze button and going right back to sleep to jumping out of bed with enthusiasm as soon as the alarm goes off.

There’s more, including a detailed section on anchoring, both on setting anchors for desired states of mind, and on removing unwanted anchors, and another section on meaning.
