Are your goals the FIRST THING you see or review when you wake up? Were they written or typed by YOU? Are they signed & dated? Why or why not?

Negative people put out a negative energy, positive people have positive energy. These people are nourishing and supportive. I'm MAKING ROOM!

Sometimes I wonder if people with 2 phones are really twice as busy OR just twice as shady... If there is no employer it's probly the latter

People who put only half their energy in their business soon find that ALL the profits are in the OTHER HALF.

Expectation is a POWERFUL attractive force. CONSISTENTLY EXPECT what you desire & your ability to attract it becomes IRRESISTIBLE. And NEVER stop working at it.

LAW 30 : Make Your Accomplishments Seem Effortless

Your actions must seem natural and executed with ease.  All the toil and practice that go into them, and also all the clever tricks, must be concealed.  When you act, act effortlessly, as if you could do much more.  Avoid the temptation of revealing how hard you work – it only raises questions.  Teach no one your tricks or they will be used against you.

Everything that has EVER been done has been done after the start & MOST STARTS are small. AFTER the start comes momentum, confidence & skill.

Anyone who is on a journey to excellence will tell you that you can take a break every now and then but you have to KEEP MOVING. Here we GROW again!

Every man & every genius in history started BEFORE he had it figured out. We learn by DOING, & we learn in no other way. What are YOU doing?

If you WORK IT, it WILL work...

LAW 40 : DESPISE the FREE Lunch

What is offered for free is dangerous – it usually involves either a trick or a hidden obligation.  What has worth is worth paying for.  By paying your own way you stay clear of guilt, and deceit.  It is also often wise to pay the full price – there is no cutting corners with excellence.

Perseverance is not a long race; it is many short races one after the other. - Walter Elliot

When you think of your past, think of it for one reason, as stimulus to do GREATER things.

FOLLOW THROUGH.... If people ask you to get back with them DO IT. Then pay attention to how THEY react. Small things bring BIG gains.

Know a person who CONSTANTLY harps on ONE subject? Religion, business, relationships, etc. ?? Would you describe them as a fanatic? Defined in psychological terms, a fanatic is one who consciously over-compensates a secret doubt.

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear. ACTION breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear don't sit at home and think about it. GET OUT AND GET BUSY." - Dale Carnegie

While LEARNING all you can to be an effective leader in the future do EVERYTHING you can RIGHT now to be desirable and intriguing.

VISION is a precise, clearly defined goal with a DETAILED plan & timetable for achieving that goal. Without VISION you are just "getting by".

Be clear and specific about what you want, but let go of how it will come about.

To DESIRE is to expect and to expect is to ACHIEVE. Idle wishing or dreaming is a waste of time and valuable mental energy. ACTION=RESULTS

Accountability comes BEFORE transformation. If you don't set a standard for YOURSELF nobody else will. NO ONE can keep you honest like YOU

Dont worry too much about giving away your "secrets" to success..... most people won't apply them anyway. realtalk

The present is a gift -- that is why it is called "present" -- it's a gift to you -- remember that and live life accordingly.

Since you attract EVERYTHING in your life, it would be a wise move to form the habit of thinking ONLY of what you want, REGARDLESS of what you are currently facing.

The key to successful living is the right adjustment of your thoughts. ConstructIve thoughts bring inspiration and freedom.

I'd rather tell it like is most people tell it like it should be.......

'Nature doesn't distinguish between what seed it receives. It just grows whatever seed is planted.

So goes LIFE!! If we focus on what we DON'T want or DON'T like, the Universe can only grow what we are planting.

Be mindful of the seeds you plant today, as they will become the crop you harvest.'

Thanks for the reminder Mary Morrissey!

Sydney J. Harris
1917-1986, Syndicated Columnist

Whether you are an employee or an entrepreneur, going the EXTRA mile makes you indispensable to others. You do for them what no one else does.

The only thing MORE powerful than the will to win is the will to begin.

If you can spot opportunity as quickly as you can spot the faults of others, you will soon succeed.

You WILL achieve the success you can envision for YOURSELF. Cultivate your vision EVERDAY, in EVERY WAY you can.

You'll very seldom get what you deserve but you'll often get what you expect. Raise your expectations.

"Setbacks and stressors are bridges to be crossed to our goals... not barricades to keep us from them."

I refuse to make this my reality and I hope the same for you!

ANYBODY can wish for riches, and most people do, but only a few know that a definite plan, plus a burning desire for wealth are the ONLY dependable means of accumulating it.

The only "Break" you can really depend on is the one you make for yourself. These breaks come through the application of persistence and are really "Breakthroughs". The starting point is DEFINITENESS if purpose. Make a stand for your future NOW.

I started out with nothing and I still have it all!

Difficult and impossible are simply exits on the road to success. Wanna be SUCCESSFUL? STAY in the LEFT lane!

The starting point of ALL achievement is desire. Weak desires bring weak results like a small fire makes a small amount of heat. Ask yourself : How strong is my desire to accomplish my goals? What am I willing to sacrifice?

"Do..... or do not. There is no TRY." - Yoda

"Do not compare your success to someone else's idea of success or someone else's actual success. How do YOU know you have succeeded? When you feel fulfilled, compensated, and like you have contributed." Thanks Petra!

ALWAYS aim HIGHER than you believe you can reach. You will find that when your talents are set free by imagination you can reach any goal.

"The real measure of our wealth is how much we'd be worth if we lost all
our money." - Benjamin Jowett

All processes of nature are successful. Nature knows no failure Use nature as our model and copy her methods we will ultimately succeed too.

Just start doing a little more or a little better than usual. Do this every day and eventually you will find yourself doing the impossible.

When people offer you their help or wisdom accept it gratefully. You can learn much from those who have gone before you. But act QUICKLY and REMAIN CONFIDENT if your HEART tells you to step away from the accepted path and head off in your own direction.

ALWAYS believe that you will ultimately succeed at WHATEVER you do, and remember the value of persistence, discipline and determination.

Tomorrow begins TODAY.

Today I will make a difference.

I will begin by controlling my thoughts. A person is the product of his thoughts. I want to be happy and hopeful. Therefore, I will have thoughts that are happy and hopeful. I refuse to be victimized by my circumstances. I will not let petty inconveniences be my masters. Optimism will be my companion, and victory will be my hallmark.

Today I will make a difference.

Opportunity is EVERYWHERE. Open your eyes to possibility and watch your dreams materialize.

and enriches work relationships.  Gratitude is one of the greatest powers you possess! - P Weldes

"Your WORD, spoken with intention, CREATES the mold into which the Universe pours itself. PAY ATTENTION. Speak only those words you want to see become reality. Avoid negativity, gossip, complaining, and fear words. Stick to positive, praising, thankful, and possibility words!" - Weldes

If you feel the NEED for creative vision in your life, you can begin by getting on better terms with your own conscience, inspiring yourself with greater SELF-RELIANCE, providing yourself with a definite major purpose and keeping your mind so busy with that purpose that you have no time for fear or doubt.

What is within you is greater than anything that is in your surroundings.
What is within you is greater than any circumstance of your life.
What is within you is greater than your history.

The POWER is YOURS to CHOOSE the thought you think.

The starting point if ALL worthwhile achievements is to develop a DEFINITENESS OF PURPOSE accompanied by a positive mental attitude. Be SPECIFIC about what you are striving for and what you will give up to get it. Then DO IT

People often complicate things while systems usually simplify them.... Become an EXPERT at identifying effective systems.....

Your sense of identity --your self-image, opens the door to the Law of Compensation’s power in your life.

This Law affects every arena of life: Your financial affairs, relationships, quality of aliveness, health, options, freedom and fulfillment.

You can only have that which you believe you deserve—that which you can actually see yourself having.

Anything is possible; but first you must believe in it, yourself.

"Often we allow ourselves to be upset by small things we should despise and forget. We lose many irreplaceable hours brooding over grievances that, in a year's time, will be forgotten by us and by everybody. Let's devote our life to worthwhile actions and feelings, to great thoughts, real affections and enduring undertakings."

Andre Maurois
1885-1967, Writer

Here we GROW again!!

Opportunity is actually EVERYWHERE, but it moves quickly. Even if you have the vision to recognize it, without a fast decision on your part, it will be GONE.

"Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm." - W. Churchill.

Today is a day that you get to create --a day of your choosing --and you will choose it by your thoughts. Take every single thought and use it to move forward.

Some people live to be ninety years old but most people live the same year ninety times.

Which are you?

Pay attention to your thoughts. Are your thoughts simply the patterns that you inherited, repeating over and over, or are you truly using your creative capacity to create thoughts that will bring the results you want most? I say the choice is yours.

"See that any time you feel pained or defeated, it is only because you insist on clinging to what doesn't work. Dare to let go and you won't lose a thing except for a punishing idea." - Guy Finley

It PAYS to be generous; it PAYS to be fair; it PAYS to GIVE MORE than expected. I really don't believe that many successes have been built in any other way.

"It's not what you do once in a while; it's what you do day in and day out that makes the difference."

Jenny Craig
Co-Founder of Jenny Craig Weight Loss

I believe that our lives are shaped by our interactions with others. The results of our encounters are rarely neutral; they are almost ALWAYS positive or negative. Even though we take these interactions for granted, they accumulate and profoundly affect our lives. What do you think?

Consciousness is cause.  Never under-estimate the power of changing your consciousness.
You shift your consciousness around something by focusing on the positive; expecting
good to happen; speaking praise; giving gratitude; or simply knowing that the Universe
supports you.  You can do this, no matter what you are facing!

THANKS PETRA!

You cannot move into intention without awareness. Find your awareness, move into intention and make your desires materialize....

William James
1842-1910, Psychologist, Philosopher and Author

When it comes to your goals remember to NEVER give up, NEVER let up and NEVER shut up. Will-power and desire, when properly combined make an irresistible pair.

"It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a
statue, or so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more
glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere through which we look -
to affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of the arts."

Henry David Thoreau
1817-1862, Author, Poet and Abolitionist

EVERY adversity, EVERY failure and EVERY heartache carries with it the Seed of an EQUIVALENT or GREATER benefit.

Choose to associate with people who believe in your possibilities, who stand for your greatness and help you remember who you are when you may forget.

ALWAYS BELIEVE that you will ultimately succeed at WHATEVER you do, and remember the value of persistence, discipline and determination.

Our power to THINK determines our state of living. The kind of thoughts we HABITUALLY think attract the same kind of conditions. As long as we apply ourselves.

Since you attract EVERYTHING into your life good or bad....it would be a WISE move on your part to begin forming the habit of thinking of only WHAT YOU WANT, regardless of the conditions or circumstances you may presently find yourself facing.

ALWAYS aim HIGHER than you believe you can reach. So often, you'll discover that when your talents are set free by your imagination, you can achieve ANY goal.

"Choose your direction. Pick your destination. Decide on your dream. Create your vision. How else will the Universe know where you want to go? Otherwise, you might end up someplace else!" - P Weldes

Be SPECIFIC when stating your visions and desires. If they are vague and general instead of WELL-DEFINED you won't have a GENUINE hope of achieving them. Knowing where you want to go and having a PRECISE map of how to get there will fuel your efforts and practically GUARANTEE your success..

Remember that you are powerful REGARDLESS of your intentions. You can use harmonious thoughts for constructive OR destructive results. The choice is up to you...

NOTHING happens by accident. The images you plant in your mind INSTANTLY set up an attractive force which helps govern your results. Remember, though, that this process is equally as effective with positive and negative images.

“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.” - Ghandi

"Look for what IS working. Focus on what you like. See others with compassion. Seek to bring an elevated view-point into any discussion. Meanwhile, the Universe is busily creating more of the things you are paying attention to!" - Petra Weldes

GREAT REMINDER!

Too much opportunity creates NOTHING. Identify and prioritize what is working and STICK to it. Reevaluate often...

Although thought is invisible to physical sight, it is an actual force or substance, as real as electricity, light, heat, water, or even stone.
We are surrounded by a vast ocean of thoughts. Our thoughts pass like currents of electricity or tiny streaks of light. It’s just as easy for us to think around the globe, as it is to think across the room. Pay attention to that. It takes no more energy to dream a big dream, than it does to think the tiniest of ideas. Think thoughts the size of the success you would like to have." - Mary Morrissey

Remember to look around at what's RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU instead of chasing ghosts on the horizon. Do so and you will constantly be amazed.

"People with goals succeed because they KNOW where they are going. It's just that simple." - Earl Nightingale

Patience IS a virtue but PERSISTENCE gets things done. While WAITING or relying on those who have offered a helping hand you could MISS OUT on a conversation that is a rocketship to your success. KEEP plugging.

"NEVER let the future disturb you. You will meet it, if you have to, with the same weapons of reason which today arm you against the present." - Marcus Aurelius Antonius

NEVER let words of encouragement die on the tip of your tongue.

Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision. - Peter F Drucker

"Strive to stand FOR things and against nothing! Opposition simply reinforces conflict. Do not oppose. Stand FOR what you think is best, right, and for the greater good. This adds the weight of your consciousness to what you do want, and removes attention from what you don't want." -Petra Weldes

KEEP TRYING

Today I pay attention to my thoughts. I take charge of my thinking and focus on POSITIVE, AFFIRMING thoughts. I deliberately CHOOSE what I will think about in ANY situation I face.

When it comes to your goals, NEVER give up, NEVER let up and NEVER shut up...... Make it a productive Monday.

Where your FOCUS goes your ENERGY flows. Look at what you want to be instead of where you are. Highlight OPPORTUNITY over liability.

The Law of Polarity says that there is an equal GOOD to every BAD. Look for the "GOOD" in every bad or DIFFICULT situation. That's exactly where you will find a payoff.

"We all have to start with ourselves. It is time to walk the talk. Take
the journey of making very difficult decisions. Start removing things
from your life that are not filling your cup and adding things that
bring joy into your life." - Lisa Hammond

You can have MONEY or you can have EXCUSES but you can't have both.....

The level of your SUCCESS can often be determined by your degree of SACRIFICE. Are you really WORKING towards your goals or are you looking for the easy way out? Only you know the real answer.

You are meant to be WHATEVER you dream of becoming.

"If all you can imagine is "just getting by", that's all you will do. Start imagining yourself with extra money; what would you do with it? Begin seeing yourself managing your money wisely, even if it is small amounts. Practice feeling the feelings of having a large savings account or of seeing your investments grow." - Petra Weldes

SHARE the BIG LESSONS you are learning today with others and watch the BIG PLANS you have for tomorrow materialize.

ALWAYS aim HIGHER than you believe you can reach. So often you will find that when your talents are set free by your imagination you can achieve ANY goal.

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature nor do the children of man as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing - Helen Keller

ALWAYS BELIEVE that you will ultimately succeed at WHATEVER you do, and NEVER FORGET the value of persistence, discipline and determination. You are meant to become WHATEVER YOU DREAM of becoming...

Learn MORE, earn MORE.....

"You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever."

Wayne Dyer

Success leaves clues.....Who are you associating with daily? Are they the picture of what you aspire to be?

From my morning reading:
"Cultivate the ART of seeing possibilities in OTHERS. This is an age in which man can't succeed alone." - George Knox
Amazing this was written in 1904 and is still true today.

STOP SELLING what you have and START OFFERING what people NEED.

You can't unconditionally love or accept OTHERS when you condemn yourself for doing certain things..... You also can't love/accept YOURSELF when you condemn others for doing certain things. We are all a beautiful expression of life, JUST AS WE ARE. The little habits/things about others you can't get over are typically small things that you are hard on yourself about...These habits or traits simply make us human they don't make us "good" OR "bad" and they certainly DON'T define us.... Hmmm........Thanks Petra!

Have an open mind in BUSINESS and PERSONAL endeavors. Don't limit yourself to only thinking and associating with one train of thought or group. There's a HUGE difference between being focused and being a FANATIC. A fanatic can be let down at some point and time but a well rounded person will conquer any challenge.....

Stop STUDYING abundance and LIVE it.....

HERE'S SOME GOOD NEWS FOR YOU - Even a MAJOR failure is not fatal, nor is it final. Remain confident about putting the broken pieces of your life together when your dreams have been shattered and it will happen... Surround yourself with positive, productive influences and you will prosper.

"Go BEYOND being successful and work on becoming significant in all you do." - Bill Chaffin
I come back to this one often....

Stand in front of the mirror. Look into your eyes. Say to yourself--"I Love You!" Stand in front of the mirror. Look at your body. Say to yourself--"I Love You!" Notice which is easier. Both are equally important. - Petra Weldes
THANKS for this!

When we charge ourselves so firmly with the idea that THERE ARE NO FAILURES, then we EXPECT success. To desire is to expect and to expect is to achieve. Just remember to ADD ACTION.....

'Let go of your need to "do". You do not earn love, get points, or impress God with everything you are doing. Your "doing" is actually supposed to be the way you express your "being". This means you have to actually BE--"be" you--so you know how you want to "do". Practice "being". Let the "doing" naturally arise from that.' - Petra Weldes
Great reminder THANKS!

Remember that money FUELS your business. When you remove your limitations on budget you also remove the limitations on your earnings.

We ALL know that you won't succeed without a thorough knowledge of your business. But that is just the START. You must also know YOURSELF (often harder to learn than a business) and MOST IMPORTANTLY you must know PEOPLE and HUMAN NATURE (how to handle others). Without this combination of knowledge you aren't doing yourself or anyone else justice.

If you are EVER presented with an opportunity to work with a mentor/highly respected professional in your industry JUMP at it. The lessons and strategies you will learn from being behind the scenes CANNOT be found anywhere else.

"Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, don't sit at home and think about it. Get out and get busy." - Dale Carnegie

"The day you catch an idea you fall in love with, even a small one, is a beautiful day."

David Lynch
Filmmaker and Television Director

From my morning reading:
Affirmations are best stated in the positive - NOT "I want to get well," BUT "I AM HEALTHY" - and in the present tense - NOT "Someday I'll be rich," BUT "I ATTRACT MONEY EVERYDAY."

From my morning reading :
When we become imbued (to permeate or saturate) with the desire to advance and help others EVERYTHING will work toward our aid. Obstacles will strengthen our resolve, discouragement from others will only serve to arouse us to stronger activity. We will see more clearly and understand more fully that every difficulty is an opportunity to advance.

"EVERYTHING you could want is ALREADY HERE, if not in form - in substance, it is up to you to get in harmony with it. Begin forming a HABIT of thinking of ONLY what you want, REGARDLESS of the conditions or circumstances you you currently face. " - Working With the Law by Raymond Holiwell

You cannot fail if you NEVER give up. EVERY effort produces some result. SUCCESS is simply a collection of many good results.

Only YOU can prevent YOU from getting what YOU desire.

If people offer their help or wisdom as you go through life, accept it gratefully. You can learn a lot from those who have gone before you. But NEVER be afraid or hesitant to step off the "accepted" path and head off in your own direction if your HEART tells you it's the right way for YOU.

Today I flow easily WITH life. I allow things to BE what they are. I let go of any resistance. I trust in the PROCESS of life unfolding.

Many people desire good things without expecting them or making a REAL effort. Learn to comply with the second half of the process and watch your dreams and wishes materialize. DESIRE connects you, while EFFORT AND EXPECTATION draws them into your life.

"Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness."
Martin Luther King, Jr.

If it looks good, you'll see it.
If it sounds good, you'll hear it.
If it's market...ed right, you'll buy it.
But... if it's real, you'll feel it.
~Kid Rock

No matter what you want out of life, you have to give up something to get it....

ALWAYS BELIEVE that you will ultimately succeed at whatever you do, and NEVER FORGET the value of discipline, persistence, and determination.

ALWAYS aim HIGHER than you believe you can reach. So often, you'll discover that when your talents are set free by your imagination, you can achieve ANY goal.

Just because someone is an expert doesn't mean you should let THEM determine the terms of YOUR relationship. When best laid plans fall through, you only have YOURSELF to blame for failing to negotiate roles and communicate expectations....

Knowledge is only POTENTIAL power.... It becomes POWER only when, and IF, it is organized into DEFINITE plans of ACTION and directed to a SPECIFIC outcome.

"It is a great mistake for men to give up paying compliments, for when they give up saying what is charming, they give up thinking what is charming." Oscar Wilde

"Everything you will ever want is already here, if not in form, in substance. It's up to you to get in harmony with it. Begin forming the habit of thinking only of what you want." - Proctor

"Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution." - Dr. David Schwartz

"There's daylight enough left to win." - Napolean
Never entertain being a failure as long as you have opportunity....

People who aren't really set on advancement/growth will ALWAYS try to convince you that they need some small thing from you in order for them to advance to the next step. People who are DETERMINED to grow/advance will figure things out and amaze you. In the process, they HELP YOU grow.

YOU are a uniquely distinct and gifted individual with potential that FAR EXCEEDS even what YOU believe. In a single moment, EVERYTHING can fall into place.......Be prepared.

"Application is the test of adequacy. Knowledge is of LITTLE OR NO VALUE unless it is used in a practical manner." - Holliwell
