Vitamins

What vitamins are you feeding your mind?

Vitamins are the words you use when you talk to yourself. They are the words you use when you talk to others.

Vitamins are the conversations you have with others.

They are the actions you take.

They are the environment you create, the books you read and the TV you watch.

Vitamins are anything that you choose to associate with and anything that chooses to associate with you that are POSITIVE.

But you can take all the positive things, the vitamins to feed your mind and emotions, and their benefit will never be maximized if your relationships are dragging you down. It is said that it takes seven positives to counteract a negative.

Choose your associations wisely. Choose them for positivity and you will do well.

What Are You Seeing?

“We lift ourselves by our thought. We climb upon our vision of ourselves. If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and of yourself. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, always everywhere.” O. S. Marden

Have thoughts about and seeing yourself in a better place. Take ownership of these thoughts. How do you do this? As Napoleon Hill said, “What the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve.”

Visualize in detail what this better place will look like. Only when this positive vision is planted firmly in your mind will have the willingness to go through inner change.

A willingness to move on your vision because you see, know and are drawn like a moth to a light to the vastness beyond your present position.

What’s Your Philosophy

What’s your philosophy? It’s an important question.

Why? What you think, your philosophy determines what you will do.

Your personal philosophy can be summed up in a few words. As each day goes by you choose do whatever you think is valuable.

What do you think is valuable? And where has that taken you?

If you don’t like where you are at and want to have things be better, then change your personal philosophy. And if you think your problems or challenges are out there, then that’s the problem A good personal philosophy for progress to move your toward the business and life you desire is “if it is to be it is up to me.”

You must be proactive. You are the creator. Start thinking on what can be instead of what is. Your personal philosophy absolutely has the power to change your life. All you have to do is change your thinking.

Even animals, insects and other living organisms have a personal philosophy that guides them. According to Jim Rohn, ants have the “all I can possibly do philosophy.”

That’s a good place to start. Do all that you can possibly do.

Unlike animals, you as a human being, have been given the dignity of choice. You can choose to be all or you can choose to be less.

Why not be like the ants and have a personal philosophy that says I will strive to achieve the maximum to see what all I can be?

What Do You See?

In some way all of us see the present. The key to successful living and growing a business is to be able see not just what is happening in the here and now, but the future consequences of what you are doing in the present.

Being able to see the future is critical to your welfare and success. If you are doing something today that is destroying your health you can stop doing it. Why do you stop? You stop because the future consequences of what you are doing today are not good.

Conversely, if you are doing something today that is good for you then you keep doing it.

In either case, your ability to see The Future and its consequences will determine how you choose to ace.

In either case, your attitude about the future depends on our ability to see the future. What do you see in your future?

All things must be finished before they can be started. And, when you see the future make sure your focus is positive.

How come? When we are pre-occupied and filled with regret about the past and concerns about the present, then we subconsciously lead ourselves toward a future that is very much like the past we left behind.

Create a positive vision of the future, start acting on it in the present and you will leave the past where it belongs, behind.

Keys To Success: Finding Peace (2)



Keys To Success: Finding Peace (2)

In the previous post on peace we looked at one of  the keys to success, finding peace.  We looked at what is peace and what is causing distress.

In this post I am going to start out and explore a little further what peace is.  And, we will look at some ways to create peace.  We will finish up with the concept that peace is best achieved by running your small business and your life by your expectations.

Keys To Success:  Know What Peace Is.  What Peace Is Not.

Peace:  A Definition

Sometimes in defining a subject it is easier to say what it is not rather than what it is.
Peace is Not:
  1. Based on external influences
  2. Based on other people
  3. Based on the absence of pressure
Peace is Internally Based

Definition:  Peace is to be set at “one” again.  What does it mean to be set at “one” again?  Primarily, this means living your life in alignment.  When you are looking at keys to success, whether it be in your business or life, alignment is important.

Keys To Success:  How To Create Peace

To create peace, as we grow, we must bring order to disorder.  And, this is where many of us have a challenge.  Maybe you are great at creating your own business.  Possibly, you are very good at success planning.  But, the distress, or lack of peace comes from your inability to manage what you have created.

As a self-employed business owner for many years and in my personal business coaching practice collaborating with individuals, entrepreneurs, solo professionals I can assure you that the one thing everyone would like to have is more peace.  And peace is one of the most important keys to success for the long-term.

All these individuals are very creative.  And, creativity by its very nature is forward thinking and disruptive of the status quo.

Unfortunately, everything else is a goal except peace.  A marketing business plan is put together that will increase sales but it is not appropriate for the owner or the small business.

Or, success planning directs you and your business into areas that put too much strain on your existing business or structure.  One of the keys to success is attaining a measure of peace is to build your business around honoring who you are.

Keys To Success:  Peace Is Living By Your Expectiations

Live by your expectations.  Don’t live by others.  Spend time in your strengths.  Spend minimal time or delegate those things that are unpleasant to you.  Manage your expectations, yourself and your process for doing business to honor who you are.

When you do you are much more likely to be successful because you are doing it on your terms.  Honor yourself and manage yourself in what you build and you will have greater peace which is one of the keys to success.
