Creating a Prosperity Mindset: By Randy Gage

So how is a mindset created? What makes you have a mindset that has you expecting breathtaking success every time you attempt something? Well, a number of things come to mind.

You don't suffer from jealously about the success of others. George Lucas doesn't have to have a bomb so Steven Spielberg can have a hit movie. Madonna's new album doesn't have to tank so that Whitney Houston can have a hit. There is enough prosperity to go around. So it's important that you celebrate the success of others. Even if you perceive them to be your competition. In most cases, competition enlarges the available market.

Another important thing is to study people who have been successful in the area you are interested in. This does a few things.

First and foremost - it builds your belief that a successful outcome is possible. If you're fighting cancer and you read Lance Armstrong's book - it gives your beliefs credibility.

Second, this just gives you overall positive programming. And when you're getting positive programming - it means you're not getting negative programming!

Finally, studying people who are successful in your area gives you the opportunity to model what they have done. You learn from their experience and can achieve your own sooner.

Another important factor in developing a success mindset is hanging around successful people. Jim Rohn or whoever suggested taking a millionaire to lunch had a very good idea.

It's been said that your in come will be the average of your five closest friends. Not only do I believe that is true for your income, but I also think it holds true for your health, happiness, self esteem and just about everything else, Including mindset. When you hang around successful people, their belief, habits and actions start to rub off on you.

Of course you have to restrict the negative programming you receive from the data-sphere and counteract it with positive programming. Give this all some thought. And give yourself a grade on what you're doing to develop a mindset of breathtaking success.

The rewards of a Positive Mental Attitude

“It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome.” William James

The power of a positive mental attitude cannot be overemphasize. In our personal and professional lives the one most single factor to guarantee extraordinary achievement and success is having a positive mental attitude. In his book “keys to Success”, Napoleon Hill explicitly outlined the rewards of a positive mental attitude and he stated, “A positive mental attitude is the single most important principle of the science of success.” This list of rewards will serve as motivating factors in building a positive mental attitude. You will enjoy the following:

1. Success consciousness, which attracts only the circumstances which make for success
2. Sound health, both physical and mental
3. Financial independence
4. A labour of love in which to express yourself
5. Peace of mind
6. Applied faith, which makes fear impossible
7. Enduring friendship
8. Longevity and a well-balanced life
9. Immunity from self-limitation
10. The wisdom to understand yourself and others

There they are Mr. Hill’s lists on the rewards of a positive mental attitude. Now, if I may add to one or two to that list it would be that, 1. a positive mental attitude gives you the power and confidence to approach any situation or circumstance and 2. It contributes to your overall performance.

Mr. Hill also talked about the penalties of a negative mental attitude and I will be sharing them with you on my next post. Enjoy

Do not give up on your personal development journey

The personal development industry is growing at an astronomical pace today. There are so many books, e-books that have been written and audio books created on this timeless subject. With all these materials available most people still find their personal development a far-reaching target. This is so because there are critical elements that have been overlooked. Sometimes our personal strengths have often been overemphasis at the expense of our personal weaknesses or vice versa. I am a strong proponent that balance must be aimed at if meaningful results will be attained.

The process of developing yourself must have objective, purposeful and it must be associated with your strengths and weaknesses. Your strengths being things that you are good at and have no struggle achieving results in those areas. On the other hand your weaknesses are areas that you need to consistently enhance or acquire new skills to better position you in achieving meaningful results. Therefore, understanding your strengths and weaknesses are paramount to your personal and professional success.

Most people have haphazardly set out on their personal development journey without really understanding what purpose it will serve and why they have embarked on it. In order to achieve the maximum outcome from your personal development efforts, the following objectives must be aimed at:

1. Leaning new knowledge
2. Honing skills that you have and gaining those you need to achieve your objectives
3. Changing mental attitudes
4. Changing belief systems
5. Identifying roadblocks you have to overcome to reaching your goals
6. Developing an action plan and
7. The importance of knowing what you want.

Consequently, setting out and setting the course for your personal development aspiration the following elements are pivotal and must be taking into consideration.

Personal strengths,
Personal weaknesses,
Where you are now,
Where you desire to be in the future, and
The goals and objectives to be achieved.

Your personal and professional development is not debateable, it is the right action plan to embark on if you must achieve extraordinary success. GO GO GO...

The Miracle Of Personal Development By Jim Rohn

One day Mr. Shoaff said, "Jim, if you want to be wealthy and happy, learn this lesson well: Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job."

Since that time I've been working on my own personal development. And I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime.

You see, what you become is far more important than what you get. The important question to ask on the job is not, "What am I getting?" Instead, you should ask, "What am I becoming?" Getting and becoming are like Siamese twins: What you become directly influences what you get. Think of it this way: Most of what you have today you have attracted by becoming the person you are today.

I've also found that income rarely exceeds personal development. Sometimes income takes a lucky jump, but unless you learn to handle the responsibilities that come with it, it will usually shrink back to the amount you can handle.

If someone hands you a million dollars, you'd better hurry up and become a millionaire. A very rich man once said, "If you took all the money in the world and divided it equally among everybody, it would soon be back in the same pockets it was before."

It is hard to keep that which has not been obtained through personal development. So here's the great axiom of life:

--TO HAVE MORE THAN YOU'VE GOT, BECOME MORE THAN YOU ARE--

This is where you should focus most of your attention. Otherwise, you just might have to contend with the axiom of not changing, which is:

--UNLESS YOU CHANGE HOW YOU ARE, YOU'LL ALWAYS HAVE WHAT YOU'VE GOT--

Success Power Points: The Ability to Communicate a Key to Success

“To effectively communicate, we must realize that we are all different in the way we perceive the world and use this understanding as a guide to our communication with others.” 
Anthony Robbins

What is communication: This is the process through which people send information to others and receive information from them. This simply implies that communication is all about conveying understandable messages to others as well as receiving feedback from others. It is imperative to understand that communication is not a one-way process but a sending and receiving of information. Have you heard the phrase communication breakdown? What this simply means is that the thoughts and ideas conveyed were not understood and as a result inappropriate feedback was sent by the listener. This of course will inevitably create roadblocks that will have a negative influence on your goals both personally and professionally.

Communication and your ultimate success are inextricably connected. Therefore, developing and honing your communication skills is a basic ingredient for your personal and professional success. This is invaluable irrespective of the size of your business whether a large corporation, a small company, a home-based business, or even family relationship effective communication skills are essential for success. Without proper communication people will not know exactly what is expected of them. For instance, waiters taking orders from their customers and passing it on to the chef, or coaches telling their teams how to play to win or parents leaving instructions for their children. The vital process to successfully attempt these tasks is communication.

You have to communicate everything you possibly can to all that are involved in the process of achieving your objectives. Being able to translate and express your thoughts and images into words that can be understood by your listener is crucial in achieving long lasting success. Communication is a success power point that you cannot afford to overlook as you spend your waking hours relentlessly in the pursuit of your personal and professional success.

Success Power Point: Protect Your Dream

Pamela Vaull Starr stated, "Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal." Everyone of us is born with the ability to dream, to envision, to anticipate, to imagine everything that is possible but not yet achieved, what can be done but not yet done and yet these possibilities lies within the human soul. You had a dream to be everything you were born to be, your dream for your family and the dream of the kind of life you want to live.

Your dream is susceptible to danger from different areas, from the society, from family members, from your environment and even sometimes from yourself. Your dream to live a life of meaning can be aborted if not protected from such enemies as Self-limiting beliefs, wrong associations, negative mental attitude and lack of vision just to name a few can stifle your dreams.

Your dream is everything you can become but have not yet become, how far you can go but have not yet attained and what you can but have not yet accomplished. Consequently, protecting your dream from these dream killers cannot be overemphasized enough. You owe it to yourself, your loved ones and your generation to protect and preserve that dream that burns within your heart. You were born to fulfil a specific dream and that dream must not die.

How to protect your dream

1. Feed your dream with positive materials

2. Stay away from the naysayer

3. Belong to a mastermind group

4. Write your dream down

5. Put an action plan in place

6. Keep on dreaming

7. Take action progressively toward the fulfilment of your dream.

Success Power Point 10: Taking Action

Did you know? What you are going to bring into your life, what success you will reach, is all being decided by the action you are taking right now. It is the smallest bit of action that separates the high achievers from everyone else.

Having acquired the information and knowledge, it is important to understand that, if consistent action is not taken, the desired outcomes will not come to fruition. It is one thing to have valuable how-to knowledge and information, but that information and knowledge will be unproductive by itself unless acted upon. The mere acquisition and possession of knowledge, does not produce real results, it is the application of the knowledge acquired which implies that the results and the desired outcome are created, when you apply what you know.

Jim Rohn wrote these words: “Knowledge fueled by emotion equals action. Action is the ingredient that ensures results. Only action can cause reaction. Further, only positive action can cause positive reaction.” This is the kind of attitude that leads to extraordinary achievement.
