Come On, No Doubt About It

Often when we get in touch with our most heartfelt and hopeful dreams what may also surface are some of our doubts. There is an important relationship between the Dreamer and the Doubter that live inside of us. It is useful and necessary to develop skills for dealing with our doubt; otherwise your dreams could very well get squelched.

The Dreamer inside of us encourages us with thoughts and comments like, “Yes you can. Go for it. You have what it takes.” By contrast, the internal Doubter voice may challenge and confront with comments such as, “What are you thinking? You’re too old (or too young), you don’t know what you are doing, and you don’t have the money or experience.”

If we turn the voice of the Doubter down it becomes the voice of the Realist, the part of us that wants to know what we intend to do. Most often, the Realist wants to know where you will find the time and money, it wants to know your plan, but be careful. Early on, you may not have all the details figured out so if you go to strategic planning too soon, your need to be realistic may have you compromise on your idea before you fully explore what else is possible.

Consider this. If all parts of us carry wisdom, perhaps even the Doubter can provide insight. If you interviewed this part of yourself, literally asked about its concerns and issues around your dreams, you might get some useful information. For example, my own Doubter often offers thought-provoking questions and prudence.

Your Doubter could inform you of potential obstacles related to your dreams. Obstacles come primarily in two forms. They are either limiting beliefs, something that requires internal reflection or that you hold to be true. Alternatively, obstacles can also be something more external that require a plan, such as borrowing money or taking a class.

For example, if your dream is to write a book but you don’t know how, you might seek assistance or learn how to do it yourself. But if what you are feeling is fear of failure that is usually more of a limiting belief, something going on inside of you that only you can change or affect. Of course, once you identify what you’re afraid of a strategy like working with a coach or a daily practice of writing might get you over it. Some obstacles can be both belief and strategy.
Wherever there is an obstacle, you can manage it. But if you don’t know there are obstacles present you may get blind-sided or sabotage your dream. It is incredibly beneficial to hear from your Doubter. Be interested in what it has to say. Pull out a journal or pad of paper and explore what your real, imagined or potential obstacles may be. Knowledge is a powerful thing.
Most people either ignore or get consumed by their doubt.

I assure you, once you become aware that there is a Doubter inside of you that is not the enemy, you are much less likely to be stopped by it. Confusion and procrastination are often signs that the Doubter is present but not being acknowledged. How do you feel when you are trying to express and not being heard? I suggest you watch for signs and stop and listen.

Once you are able to learn from your doubt, other people’s doubts will have less impact on you. How might your life change if other people‘s negative comments only deepened your conviction to your dream? Once you deal with your own doubt you will no longer put the beliefs of others over your own. This is a sign of transformation as you become more inner-referenced. This can lead to deeper self-trust, which in turn will enable you to take greater risks and dream bigger dreams!

The Fish Story

The Japanese love fresh fish. However, the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades. So to feed the Japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever.

The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the fish. If the return trip took more than a few days, the fish were not fresh. The Japanese did not like the taste.

To solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze them at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer.

However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish. The frozen fish brought a lower price.

So fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little thrashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and dull, but alive.

Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the difference. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish.

So how did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan? If you were consulting the fish industry, what would you recommend?

Too Much Money

As soon as you reach your goals, such as finding a wonderful mate, starting a successful company, paying off your debts or whatever, you might lose your passion. You don’t need to work so hard so you relax.

You experience the same problem as lottery winners who waste their money, wealthy heirs who never grow up and bored homemakers who get addicted to prescription drugs.
Like the Japanese fish problem, the best solution is simple. It was observed by L. Ron Hubbard in the early 1950's.

"Man thrives, oddly enough, only in the presence of a challenging environment." — L. Ron Hubbard

The Benefits of a Challenge

The more intelligent, persistent and competent you are, the more you enjoy a good problem.
If your challenges are the correct size, and if you are steadily conquering those challenges, you are happy.

You think of your challenges and get energized. You are excited to try new solutions. You have fun.
You are alive!

How Japanese Fish Stay Fresh

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark to each tank. The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state.

The fish are challenged.

Recommendations

Instead of avoiding challenges, jump into them. Beat the heck out of them. Enjoy the game.
If your challenges are too large or too numerous, do not give up. Failing makes you tired. Instead, reorganize. Find more determination, more knowledge, more help.

If you have met your goals, set some bigger goals. Once you meet your personal or family needs, move onto goals for your group, the society, even mankind.

Don’t create success and lie in it. You have resources, skills and abilities to make a difference.
Put a shark in your tank and see how far you can really go!

Fergie- Really Special One

MU won the 2008 Champions League

Well, i woke up this morning to catch the final of Champions League between Chelsea and MU and guess what, its MU again this time and Chelsea came up second best again although tonnes of opportunity wasted and twice hit the bar and woodwork. Certainly luck is with Chelsea on the first half but not thereafter. Well done to Fergie for his outstanding and remarkable career and i don't see him stop right here.

For Avram who wish to be crown Special One tonight, not went in according order and Red Rom at the back would have to make major decision. Another change in manager? Quite possibly as yet another failure in CL event. Let see how the picture next season and after Euro 2008 where there could be new star in the making, just like Frank Ribery for France in World Cup 2006.

Its tiring and Chelsea loss, it feel sucks but i don't think they deserve it in terms of entertainment football.

Got to work now, and after meeting will have to drive to Kuala Lumpur for an appointment at Puchong Perdana. Take care.

Don't let wind dictate our lives

In the process of living, the winds of circumstances blow on us all in an unending flow that touches each of our lives.We have all experienced the blowing winds of disappointment, despair and heartbreak. Why, then, would each of us, in our own individual ship of life, all beginning at the same point, with the same intended destination in mind, arrive at such different places at the end of the journey? Have we not all been blown by the winds of circumstances and buffeted by the turbulent storms of discontent?What guides us to different destinations in life is determined by the way we have chosen to set our sail.

The way that each of us thinks makes the major difference in where each of us arrive. The major difference is the set of the sail.The same circumstances happen to us all. We have disappointments and challenges. We all have reversals and those moments when, in spite of our best plans and efforts, things just seem to fall apart. Challenging circumstances are not events reserved for the poor, the uneducated or the destitute. The rich and the poor have marital problems. The rich and the poor have the same challenges that can lead to financial ruin and personal despair. In the final analysis, it is not what happens that determines the quality of our lives, it is what we choose to do when we have struggled to set the sail and then discover, after all of our efforts, that the wind has changed directions.

When the winds change, we must change. We must struggle to our feet once more and reset the sail in the manner that will steer us toward the destination of our own deliberate choosing. The set of the sail, how we think and how we respond, has a far greater capacity to destroy our lives than any challenges we face. How quickly and responsibly we react to adversity is far more important than the adversity itself. Once we discipline ourselves to understand this, we will finally and willingly conclude that the great challenge of life is to control the process of our thinking. Learning to reset the sail with the changing winds rather than permitting ourselves to be blown in a direction we did not purposely choose requires the development of a whole new discipline. It involves going to work on establishing a powerful, personal philosophy that will help to influence in a positive way all that we do and that we think and decide.

If we can succeed in this worthy endeavor, the result will be a change in the course of our income, lifestyle and relationships, and in how we feel about the things of value as well as the times of challenge. If we can alter the way we perceive, judge and decide upon the main issues of life, then we can dramatically change our lives.

Burn the Boat!

I believe that the great NFL Hall of Fame coach, Vince Lombardi, had it right when he said, “The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor.”Do you agree with coach Lombardi or are you the type of person who has difficulty staying focused and keeping commitments? Do you allow the negative influences of fear,anxiety, self-doubt and worry to dominate your thinking and sabotage your results?

Sadly, most people fail to achieve their goals, not because they’re lazy or lack self-motivation, but because they were never “fully committed” to succeed! I can’t think of a single great achievement that has ever been attained without first a plan of action and then an unshakable commitment to its accomplishment.

Walt Disney was arguably one of the most creative dreamers and determined men of the twentieth century. Walt understood the power of commitment and would frequently tell those around him, “When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionably.”

The ancient Greek warriors were both feared and respected by their enemies. In battle, the Greeks established a well-deserved reputation for their unsurpassed bravery and unshakable commitment to victory.

The key to their overwhelming success on the battlefield had far more to do with how the Greek commanders motivated the warriors than it did with issues of tactics or training. The Greeks were master motivators who understood how to use a “dramatic demonstration” to infuse a spirit of commitment into the heart of every warrior.

Once the warriors had been offloaded from their boats onto their enemy’s shore, the Greek commanders would shout out their first order, “burn the boats!” The sight of burning boats removed any notion of retreat from their hearts and any thoughts of surrender from their heads.
Imagine the tremendous psychological impact on the soldiers as they watched their boats being set to the torch. As the boats turned to ash and slipped quietly out of sight into the water, each man understood there was no turning back and the only way home was through victory.
In your sales career your battles are not fought with weapons on foreign shores, but within the confines of your own mind. A truly committed salesperson does not have the luxury or the time for the self-indulgence of negative thinking.

The true underlying motivation for all success is a deep and unwavering commitment to the task at hand. The sales profession is a demanding and challenging career, but it is also personally rewarding and financially lucrative for those who are fully committed to becoming successful.
If you are being pushed around mentally by thoughts of fear, anxiety, self-doubt and worry, it’s time to “burn your boat” and become fully committed to your sales career!

“Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative and creation, there is one elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one’s favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and material assistance which no man could have dreamed would have come his way. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power and magic in it. Begin it now.” - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Dreams Are Magic Sparks

“Dreams are the seedlings of realities.” - As A Man Thinketh

Look slowly around you. All that you see at this moment was one day but someone’s dream - a “seedling of the reality” it was to become. In our lifetime we have benefited greatly from the dreams of so many.

Mandela, Mother Teresa, Einstein, Gandhi, Spielberg, Disney, Gates and the list could go on and on and on — all began with a dream. Who could forget one of the most powerful speeches of all time by Dr. Martin Luther King, “I Have a Dream”. While we haven’t become the color-blind society we should be, go back and read the speech and see how far we’ve come since Dr. King first spoke those “seedlings” into reality.

At the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, Celine Dion performed a song called The Power of the Dream.
“Deep within each heart,There lies a magic spark,That lights the fire of our imagination…
Your mind will take you farThe rest is just pure heart,You’ll find your fate is all your own creation.”

Sounds a lot like James Allen, doesn’t it? So maybe you don’t see yourself as a Mandela or Mother Teresa. But if you haven’t already discovered it, deep inside you there is a dream.

Step aside for a moment from the day-to-day concerns of life. Re-establish contact with your highest goals and most treasured dreams. Remind yourself of the beautiful possibilities that life holds for you. Renew your determination to bring them to fruition.

“Spend some quality time with your dreams. They are real to the extent that you value them. To the extent that you commit to them and work for them, they will come true.”

The final verse of Celine’s song ends with:
“There’s so much strength in all of us,

Every woman, child and man,

It’s the moment that you think you can’t,

You’ll discover that you can.”
And that’s worth thinking about.

Say Both and Make it Happen

Let’s take a little quiz. Read the following five questions and answer them as honestly as possible. Ready? Begin…
1. Do you want a successful career or a close relationship with your family?
2. Do you want to earn a fortune or do the work you love?
3. Do you want to enjoy a delicious love life or grow your business?
4. Do you want to give to your favorite charity or invest in the new car?
5. Do you want to travel the world or make money?
There’s only one answer to all of these questions. The answer is…
BOTH!

One of the most powerful habits that can bring more abundance in your life is the habit of thinking, “Both”.

Rich people live in a world of abundance.

Poor people live in a world of limitation.

Poor people think there’s not enough to go around in the world. They come from a fear-based mindset. Their answers are “either/or”, but never “both”.

In a poor person’s mind-set they go for security above love, safety before self-expression and protection over possibility.

What about you? Are you a possibility theorist or a fear-based thinker?

Rich people live in a world of abundance.

Poor people live in a world of limitation.

Rich people understand that with a little creativity, a willingness to be unconventional, and an open mind, they can have both. When you build your business (and your life) on the “Both” mentality, you will see opportunities that you were once blind to.

Bbegin today to alter your mind-set. Get in the habit of saying “Both!” Anytime you’re asked to decide on two options, say both and then use your creative genius to make it happen.

Only you can make the decision to break through the limitations put on life. YOU have the power to change your beliefs about abundance and prove to yourself you really believe in enjoying “both!”

Do we have confident?

Is there anything you can do in one day to improve your confidence? Yes, there is. In fact, there are a lot of things you can do in one day. Transformation can happen almost instantly, if you are willing to play the game.

Over the next few minutes, visualize a couple of things you have ahead of you today or tomorrow. Would you like to have more confidence at those things? Spend a few minutes with each one but visualize your doing it as if you are fully confident. Run it like a movie in your head. Picture yourself relaxed and strong, and enjoying what you are doing. You are fully capable, and others are looking to you for reassurance and guidance.

Visualizing can help you with job interviews, meeting new people, and doing better work. It can help you with sports or music performance and any other task you would like to do better. It can help you get over your fears and anxiety.

As you go through your day today, watch your posture and body language. When you look at other people on the street, you can partly tell who is confident and important by how they carry themselves. Today, be one of those confident people. Hold your shoulders back and sit or stand tall and relaxed. Make eye contact with people and smile more easily. Reach out to shake people's hands or touch them.

Speak today like a winner, to yourself and to others. For today, banish thoughts of "I can't," and replace them with, "I can!" If someone asks you to do something you really don't know how to do, then say, "I can learn how to do that."

Failures can take us in directions we would not have gone before. A lost job often leads to a better one. No job often leads to self employment, and has been the beginning of many highly successful businesses. It is common to resist change, because it's the unknown, but change, even unfortunate change, brings with it new opportunities. Sometimes it is only failure that brings us those opportunities. So stop thinking about failures and instill confidence in yourself. Self confidence can help you gain new heights in life and achieve greater things that you did not even dream about earlier. Stop thinking of the failures from this moment.

When you find yourself doubting what you can do, there is one more trick you can use, and that is to "act as if." Pretend you are an actor playing a role, and the role you are playing is of a confident person. You might even imagine what one of your favorite people would do or say, if they were in your place right now. How would a former president apply for a job? How would an actor ask someone out on a date? Would a successful business person hesitate at their office? Have fun with it. Have your thoughts reflect confidence for one day, and you will see barriers crumble. Once you know you can do things, that knowledge cannot be taken away.

Blockbuster Finale

Champ or Chump as Chelsea and MU race on

Second half goals from Michael Ballack and Florent Malouda gave Chelsea a 2-0 away win over Newcastle on Monday and ensured that the Premier League title race will go to the wire.

Michael Ballack was again Chelsea's hero as the Londoners took the Premier League title race down the final game of the season. The German, whose double against Manchester United last week took them level with their rivals at the top, broke a stubborn Newcastle with a crucial 60th-minute opener at St James' Park. But it was not until Florent Malouda added a second eight minutes from time that the points were safe as the spirited Magpies did their best to preserve a seven-game unbeaten run.

Whatever the outcome, it will be a blockbuster finale end to the dramatic season.

Dreams are made possible

I just so tired, to be exact mentally exchausted. Listening to songs right now and blogging. I got very little time to surf net apart from my company website to check on my customer data and production performance. Today's was little lucky coz my sister got visitor in my house and let me use my computer for few hours. I can sense that i can't get things completed everyday, yet i know it cant be finished or we're finished. How true is that?

It's never easy especially when i will become Unit Manager on 1/9/2008. How many times i mentioned this news to my parents and colleague and it becomes a piece of junk news. The question is how commit i am when i mentioned this statement 2 years back and how ready i'm at that time? Well, the answer is, i rather focused on personal sales until last year that i realized i reach the limit. "Its so near yet so far" on MDRT production requirement. Many colleague come and congratulate me on my best performance yet on 6 years career. I felt i loss something and to be honest not feel excited at all coz i did not realize my dreams and dad hope to see his son to be crown MDRT, although there is always next year, the significant of not completing the task brought me down to earth.

Thus, this year after so many years talking about to become UM, i'm on the path right now. My first recruit was a failure and i learn a good lesson on it. My colleague all came to me and console me and give lots of good advice, thanks to them and special thanks to Mr Gan and Mr Lee, both Agency Managers. I admit my mistake ever since the selection process and hence this is the outcome. Now came my new recruit and also one of my student (when i was lecturing part time in Olympia College). She is a lady and independent one, hope i will be able to coach her the right way and demonstrate good results by year end.

I have to keep believing myself and action, action, and action. Learn as much as possible and for surely you will see me promoted to UM by 1/9/2008. Does it sound over confident? To me, it is a positive statement and i learn this ever since i join the industry. Never said hope rather a MUST. Again dreams are made possible.

What's your dreams for the year? Share it will your loves one, family and everybody...scared people will look at us one kind if we don't achieve, trust me, nobody will coz i learn this from my training room few years back, i cant remember the author but it sounds this way:

the Principal of 20/40/60

At age of 20, we are so concern of people talking behind us;

At age of 40, we dun give a damn of people talking behind us; and

At age of 60, we realize that actually nobody talking behind us because they themselves busy about themselves.

How true is that statement, judge yourself! Thus, share it out and once you shared it, it will become a commitment to you and pressure to realize the dream. What is the worst consequences? People dun have time to talk about us, so continue to dream BIG, it is better to set BIG goals and don't achieve it rather than set SMALL goals and achieve it.

Set your dreams today if you yet to get one. Here is my 2008 DREAMS:

To undertake 1 unit Toyota Camry 2.4G Pearl White on 29/9/2008.

Next on the list is to complete my MALDIVES overseas TRIP sponsored by my company before i promoted to UM by 1/9/2008

Ok, i guess time up for me to pass on my laptop to my sister, together we work hard and work smart to achieve our MUST achieve dreams. Don't just dream IF one day i HAVE it, let's make it happen.

GOD BLESSED.

Work Now, Break Later

The self made rich know one thing for sure...there is a lot of hard work before you can sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labors. A lot of people get the impression that the rich are lazy which to some degree is true, but here is what most people don't realize...they deserve it.

The rich have worked hard for a long enough period of time to be able to kick back and golf whenever they would like to. Take those long vacations to where ever they would like to and stay as long as they would like. The way that they can do that is because they are free both financially and emotionally. They have discovered something that has been around since the beginning of time...

The rich may have started off like you working a 9-5 or killing themselves in their own business. What they all have in common is that they realized that trading time for dollars gets you no where quickly if that is all that you do. Most of you don't have a clue what I am talking about and that is because of your own ignorance and I would recommend that you become educated and I am not talking about taking out another expensive college degree.

Leverage is the key. In the past you really only had two options and they are still in effect today, leverage other peoples time or leverage money. Today people are discovering that they can leverage technology to some degree as well.

The rich are empire builders leveraging everything at their disposal including you and your 9-5 to make themselves richer and richer. They then take your hard earned dollars and then invest that into other investments like real estate and other investment options and once again they are leveraging you and their money. You pay them rent in the form of a mortgage payment or rent whichever and again they are leveraging your time.

Now a day's people have started learning how to leverage technology to work for them in the internet. You can literally set up a website and have it work for you 24/7 making sells for you and making you rich. So choose what you want to do.

1. Stay in the status quo
2. Build an empire through business
a. The requirements are that you must build that business to a point where you can leave that business at any time for as long as you wish and the business continues to grow and progress.
3. Leverage your money so that your money is working for you
4. Leverage technology so that it is working for you but again it has to comply with option #2

Once you have built your empire and you are one of the rich you too will deserve to kick back on any beach in the world for as long as you wish and have others call you the lazy rich guy.

Nargis in Myanmar

Breaking news:Cyclone death toll nears 4,000 in Myanmar

Almost 4,000 people were killed and nearly 3,000 others are unaccounted for in a single town after a devastating cyclone in Myanmar, a state radio station said Monday.

Tropical Cyclone Nargis hit the Southeast Asian country, also known as Burma, early Saturday with winds of up to 120 mph. The cyclone blew roofs off hospitals and schools and cut electricity in Myanmar's largest city, Yangon.

The government had previously put the death toll countrywide at 351 before increasing it Monday to 3,939.

The radio station broadcasting from the country's capital, Naypyitaw, said that 2,879 more people are unaccounted for in a single town, Bogalay, in the country's low-lying Irrawaddy River delta area where the storm wreaked the most havoc.

The situation in the countryside remained unclear because of poor communications and roads left impassable by the storm.

"It's clear that we're dealing with a very serious situation. The full extent of the impact and needs will require an extensive on-the-ground assessment," said Richard Horsey, a spokesman in Bangkok, Thailand for United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

"What is clear at this point is that there are several hundred thousands of people in dire need of shelter and clean drinking water," Horsey said.

Officials from Myanmar's military government met Monday with representatives of international aid agencies to discuss providing assistance.

Neighboring Thailand announced that it would fly some aid in Tuesday.

The private aid agency World Vision said Myanmar's government had invited it "to provide assistance in the form of zinc sheets, tents, tarpaulins and medicine

Achieving success will require commitment. This is a concept that far too many people are willing to bail on. The reason is that they loose patience and give up on their commitments and therefore give up on their dreams and goals.

Some will not commit because they want a guarantee that everything will work out. But the only guarantee is that if you do not commit you will not succeed.

It has been said that clarity comes after commitment. If you do not start with a commitment and stay with it, then you will never see your success. Once you have committed and follow through with your commitment then you can clearly see even further.When you say "I want to achieve success" that is not a commitment. You should say "I will achieve success" Now you have a commitment.You must eliminate options and excuses that get in the way of making real commitments. You will not get it done with "maybe someday" If you want to truly succeed, don’t allow giving up to be an option.Commitment is a sign of your integrity.

When you show your commitment to your business and your success you are demonstrating your level of integrity at the same time. Commitment is what you have left after the excitement of an opportunity has worn off. Some are tempted to give up on their commitment to success when the excitement of the new idea has passed.

Realizing this will keep a more enlighten person in the game. You need to stay in the game to win.Those that are hesitant to commit will be ineffective in receiving success. On the other hand, when you are committed powerful things occur that would not have occurred without the strength of your commitment.Patience and commitment are partners.

Your commitment means that you will give what you have to give until the success is achieved. That will require your patience. When you are committed, you will be and feel in control. You are not allowing the laziness of non committal to take you over. You are going for what you want.Commitment is a mountain that is created inside of you. You must surrender to it and be willing to trust.

Commitment is seen by some as too much work. The time and energy that it takes is too overwhelming for them. This makes a great excuse for them to not commit at all. But the truth is when we commit we experience fewer struggles as we now have an anchor in commitment. As we commit to our success, we will begin to see a new way of committing. We will find deeper thing to commit to. It will be too great to ever want to go back to a life with no commitment or direction.

Your commitments will serve as a reminder of your purpose in live. It is with your patience and your commitment that you will have all of the success you desire.

Vision in Life

How many times have you found yourself thinking back in time, wondering what life would have been like if you had done "this" differently, or if you had done "that" differently? If you had made different choices in your personal life, family life or in your career, what would you be like today? Would you have more money, would you dress differently, would you be traveling all year round with your beloved? Well, maybe life would be different but would you really change anything when it comes down to it? Probably not, as these are valuable experiences that have made you the wonderful person you are today. We cannot change the past, but what about the future?

Let's look at it from a different perspective. How many times have you had visions of the future? Before you approached your boss for that much deserved raise did you think in your mind what you would say, how you would say it, how your boss would answer, and how you would respond to any questions? If you didn't, you probably didn't get that raise. But if you did - congratulations! You had a vision of how the conversation would go, you knew how to handle it, and you probably walked out of your boss' office with a raise. I think about a professional baseball pitcher. Every time he reaches the mound, before he throws each pitch does he have a vision of the ball leaving his hand, floating through the air, crossing the plate within the strike zone, feeling the breeze of the batters swing as he misses the ball and it goes straight into the catcher's mitt? Of course he does!

Vision can be defined as a mental image, or intelligent foresight. As visionaries we can shape the future in our minds and make things happen that we never thought were possible. Put your visions to work for you. Have you established goals for yourself? Goals are not just for work and measuring your performance. Each of us should have short-term and long-term goals not only for our careers, but also for our personal life, family life, religious life, or whatever we feel is important. Goals can be as simple as getting the kids to school on time everyday, or cleaning out the hall closet, to something as complex as finishing a college degree or writing a book. Every successful business has a business plan-a road map to success. Why shouldn't you have a roadmap to success for your life?

How do we achieve our goals? Hard work, determination, perhaps a change in lifestyle-it all depends on you and your personal road map. Close your eyes and picture in your mind what you will have to do today to achieve just one goal on your list. Envision yourself moving through the day, following every step you need to get that task done. Now…open your eyes, and get to it!

Facing Challenges Of Life

A lot of people all over are always cribbing about their present situation as to how their life is full of challenges and they would have been more happier if their life was full of roses. But life is always that way. Just try finding one person who had never any challenges in his/her life. You will never find one! If that were to be as everyone wanted, then their would not have been any interest in life as each day would have been monotonous leading to dull and drab life. Only by facing challenges and overcoming them, a person is really said to have lead a fulfilling life!

Life will always have challenges:

Just get used that mindset. Life will always be full of challenges for every person whatever section of society he belongs to. If a poor person wants to get out of his poverty to a comfortable living standard he has to struggle it out. Same goes for a middle class person if he wants to get a more comfortable life. . . he too has to struggle it out. So challenges will always exist.

More challenges you encounter more successful you become:

Life always has various levels of games for every individual. For a person overcoming one challenge, he become mentally ready for other one in course of which life gives him greater rewards for solving those challenges. You go to another level by stretching your comfort zone a little further.

Every challenge gets an opportunity:
Every challenge a person acquires in life presents him with two kinds of opportunities. . . one is personal growth and other one financial growth. So it's a real challenge to spot these opportunities and to cash on them thus leading to personal and material development of one self.

Recognizing opportunity:
The best way to recognize an opportunity in adversity is to get guidance and learn from the same people who have been through your path. They are your best teachers. Since every one cannot be accessible at a given time, reading books, listening to audio tapes from personal development experts can go a long way in helping you.

Putting your learnings into action:
The important part of learning in life is to put whatever one has learned into action. Without action all the strategies of life have no meaning. So if you want to profit in your life, mentally as well as financially start from today to put into action whatever good things learned from life before your time runs out!!
