There is a Technique that can Change Your Life, says Author
Do you feel like your stuck? No matter what you do, you don't seem to be able to move on. The doors to advancement at work seem to close, money remains tight and relationships get to the same place and fail. You might not have noticed it, but day-to-day life, and things you're going through have become a bit a vicious circle? or a hamster wheel! Round and round you go, same day, same issues over and over. But there is something you should know about the hamster wheel. If the wheel makes you feel uncomfortable, or sick ? like not wanting to go into work, feeling stressed, depressed or lethargic then you need to get off the wheel. And I know you might have tried already and feel fed up with trying, but I have a new idea that won't take you much effort. Play with me a moment. I want to suggest to you that you are stuck where you are in life because of one thing. Think about it. You created everything in your life. You chose your job, therefore determining the amount of money you earn which dictates both the location and type of home you live in. You choose your diet and fitness routine which governs your weight and the length of time you have to live. You choose your relationship ? either the type of person you can settle down with or in a few months, use to repeat a cycle of behaviour. All it takes to change things in your life is one thing. That thing is not a big thing. In fact it is very subtle. It sits behind every word you speak and every action you take. It flickers like magnetic beacon attracting and repelling people, situations, possibilities, hopes and dreams. And in order to change you life you must change it. It is your thoughts. That is the magic ? your thoughts. What you've created for yourself - with your hamster wheel! - is almost like a caged existence. And you will keep yourself penned in until you decide to change your thoughts. My advice to you is to first acknowledge the situation you are in now. Look at what you gain from being where you are in life. Then think about what you would like and match your dreams with thoughts. This is the process I had to go through when changing from being overweight and without a penny to becoming a published author. "Life has put me in this pen to help me change my thoughts?"

Success Secrets of The Rich - Are Rich People Lucky? I've just sent an email to my mailing list based on Stuart Goldsmith's 'Seven Secrets of The Millionaires.'

Balance: Flow and Faith In so many areas of life we must always be vigilent of our mental, emotional and physical health.

Adaptability as a Key to Success Do you ever stop to consider how much we change and grow as people? I'm not talking so much about "maturing" or physical growth. What I'm driving atis the changes that occur inside of us; the changes in thought and self perception. We are constantly bombarded with an incredible amount ofinformation. Our grandparents didn't get nearly as much stimulation in their lives as we get in a single day. We are exposed to more ideas, morelifestyles, more ideologies every week than our great grandparents ever heard of. So given this fact it is imperative that we learn good copingmechanisms and a strong sense of focus. Your Own Worth Should be Worth Success 1.

He learned a key lesson from boxing which helped him in the acting world and which could help any of us in any situation. Reach Your Goals - Clown Around Clown around Among the Plains Indians, heyoka, or sacred clowns, often purposely behave in strange or counter-intuitive ways, such as living their lives "backward" (riding facing the rear of the horse, drying off before bathing, etc.). They also tell tales of sadness and woe during good times and spin gleeful tales during times of want. This is done to teach the tribe's members not to take life too seriously, to remind them that all ups and downs are transient, and, on a more metaphysical level, to maintain the appropriate mental and spiritual balance of the tribe as a unit in relationship to the spirit world. Heyoka are held in very high esteem and thought to possess very strong medicine (spiritual/magical power) to keep the tribe healthy and safe through these actions. Tracking Success With A Goal Tracking Chart Creating a goal tracking chart is as simple as drawing a basic grid or table. Create as many vertical columns as you have goals to include, and include a horizontal row for every sub-goal or milestone you wish to divide your goals into, plus one row on top for your "Finish By" date and one row below for your goal heading or title.

"When you talk to yourself, you listen. No matter what you say, you're listening... and recording it in your memory." - Mike Brescia Moving Beyond Self-Sabotage Self-sabotage is one key factor that keeps our business from moving forward. We can sabotage ourselves in a variety of ways. There are many ways we can prevent ourselves from enjoying the success we desire. To ensure that our businesses grow and prosper, it is vital that we learn how to push through unproductive attitudes. Here are some tips to help you move beyond self-sabotage. The High Cost of Doing Nothing Cost is sometimes a difficult term to define. Here, we are not simply discussing cost as it relates to selling price, but rather opportunity cost. The web site, "Mentors, Ventures and Plans" defines opportunity cost as "The loss of the next best alternative whenever a decision is made involving two or more options". "Investing in Options" defines it as "Choosing the best alternative means that you can't choose the next-best alternative. Opportunity cost is the next-best alternative that must be sacrificed in order to get something else you want. Opportunity cost can be thought of as the road not taken." Inactivity, or doing nothing, is usually the highest price paid and is often associated with great opportunity cost. Inaction is usually the worst decision one can make, made from a base of fear. 7 Things You Can Do To Reach The Success You Truly Desire Ever have those days where no matter what you try life seems to be a series of one step forward and two steps back?
