Your Wish is My Command - Expanding the Power of Your Personal Genie
The Genie we all have inside us is awaiting our instructions and ready to grant our every wish. Of course, if it were this easy we would all live in castles and zip around on magic carpets. If you're not where you want to be in life, what commands are you giving your Genie?Your Three WishesWant to change your life? Here's the quick answer: pay closer attention to your thoughts and the instructions you give your Genie.
Positive Creativity
I wrote this article after a conversation with a collegue who had all but given up. As I listened to this lost soul pour his heart out with one negative thought after another, I thought to myself, it's no wonder he's failing. If I had an attitude like that towards life and business I would have quit trying to succeed on the internet a year ago, or even today.
he Inside Story
Why is it that you don't yet have all that you want in your life? Why is it that you never seem to be moving forward, making progress, or reaching your goals?Could it be that there is some force out there holding you back? Could it be your competitors, your family, your friends, or could it be something closer to home?Could it be.
Finding Inspiration to Realise Your Dreams and Ambitions
"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark TwainAnyone learning to do business online (it is a constant learning curve), will, I hope, find something of benefit here. At my business site, www.
Independence Day - Free Your Mind
"Happiness, like unhappiness, is a proactive choice." -Stephen CoveyI saw the movie Pearl Harbor over Memorial Day weekend. It served as a good reminder of the tremendous cost of freedom. There is also a tremendous cost to not having freedom.In a physical sense, most of us enjoy freedom.
Successful Beyond Measure
"I do not measure success by the quantity of what is in my checkbook, but by the quality of what is in my heart... but quantity is a close second." Jo McNamaraI looked up the word "successful" in my thesaurus and some of the words listed were: happy, lucky, fortunate, unbeaten, undefeated, blossoming.
First Impressions - turn fear into courage
The top business people all say the same thing - first impressions count. Sounds easy, and it is easy for those few who can start a conversation with just about anyone but how many people do you know who are like that?On the other hand when you're shy it's easy to avoid other people, shyness automatically comes with a PhD in how to creatively avoid people, especially strangers! However this tendency can prove detrimental to your business especially when you consider that your ultimate success can depend on approaching people and making a great first impression.
Maybe your life can be better, but certain aspects would definitely have to change. If you are like me, change is very difficult. You get stuck in a rut; but, the rut is familiar, and if not perfect, it is comfortable. To pull yourself out of the trenches will require taking you out of your comfort zone and placing you in unfamiliar territory. Like me, you definitely need to learn how to overcome your resistance to change with a life-makeover.
Staying in you comfort zone and being resistant to change will not get you anywhere. If you really want to make your life better, in any aspect, you must accept that not all change is bad. Even if you are doubtful at first, even changes you do not expect can turn out to be great in the long-run. You may not be able to see the positive effects today, but tomorrow could be wonderful.
In order to believe that tomorrow can be great, a life-makeover can teach you to change you thinking, so that everything that changes does not have to be a catastrophe waiting to happen. If you can adjust your conceptions, change can be something exciting to look forward to, on your way to a richer and fuller life.
If you look forward to change, you will not have to resign yourself to your present circumstances. You can be free to take the steps necessary to improve you standard of living, you self-esteem, your relationships, and your hopes and dreams. You do not have to accept the way things are and just go through the motions of living. You can get excited about life again and anticipate each new day with joy.
You can learn how to create each new day with enthusiasm, and let go of the fear related to change. You will learn how to use the new tools provided to find an inner strength you never knew you possessed! You are stronger than you think; and there are people will help you find that strength.
Life is too short. You do not want to go through life saying, "I wish . . ." or "I could have . . ." Inner peace and contentment with life does not drop in your lap. If you want to be happy, you are the only one that can make it so. It is your choice. So, if you want to make your life better, you have to make a concerted effort to overcome your resistance to change.
