The Rich Effect


In addition to the spending cash you normally have with you, start carrying at least one, if not two, one hundred dollar bills with you all the time. This will give you the security of knowing that you always have money with you, and it will also give you what I like to call the rich effect. Subconsciously, you will feel more at ease and more comfortable knowing that you have cash with you “in case of an emergency.”

This habit also helps develop a prosperity consciousness, and you will attract more wealth into your life. It is a universal law that “like attracts like.” When you are comfortable seeing and handling larger amounts of cash, more will come your way.

Actress Mae West once made this witty remark:

I've been rich and I've been poor... Believe me, rich is better!”

Do you agree? And if so, what will you do to create your own rich effect?

Comfort Zone


If the greatest enemy of self-confidence is fear, then the great enemy of human achievement is the comfort zone. Psychologists have found that each of us has a tendency to have this zone of behavior or performance where we are comfortable; where it is easy and unchallenging to stay there. We stop striving, we relax, and day-by-day, we develop the habits that lead to underachievement – and ultimately – failure.

The tragedy of staying in the comfort zone is eventually we will miss our golden opportunities and deeply regret it.

American philosopher and writer Mark Twain said:

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

Fear


Fear is the great enemy of self-confidence. Fear has always been the greatest enemy of mankind in many ways. It is fear that holds us back more than any other factor. It affects our subconscious mind and sabotages our intentions. I have heard so many people say I could never do that. I would never try that because I would be so afraid that I would fail and look stupid. I would feel so badly if I failed, I couldn't stand it. Nobody wants to look or feel stupid or incompetent, but – trying something and not achieving what you intended is just another way of practicing.

To keep fear away, we must practice positive self-talk. Tell yourself you are fearless, and successful and you will be!

Philosopher Lao Tsu said:

Be careful what you water your dreams with. Water them with worry and fear and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream. Water them with optimism and solutions and you will cultivate success.”

Formula For Success



Success is not an accident. The difference between the people who produce positive results and those who don't is that successful people follow consistent, logical patterns that are specific pathways to excellence.

I began to study succesful people to see if they had a common formula for success, and I discovered that they do. They all seem to know their outcome. They have a goal, and they know why they're doing what they're doing. They have a reason, almost an obsession, for making their goal happen. They have an ability to take action.

If you know what you want and don't do anything about it, then it is just a dream. It will never be a reality. Action is the only thing that translates dreams into reality. Those who can get themselves to consistently take action will absolutely dominate the field of success.

Film maker Cecil B. DeMille said:

The person who makes a success of living is the one who sees his goal steadily and aims for it unswervingly. That is dedication.”

So ask yourself, “How strong is my dedication to achieve real happiness and enormous success, and what unswerving action can I take to succeed in my goals?”

Three Habits To Propel You To Greatness


American football coach Vince Lombardi once said:

Leaders are made, they are not born. They are made by hard effort, which is the price which all of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.”

His words are so very true! The best effort you can make, with the greatest payoff, is to invest in your own development.

Here are three great areas to focus on:

  1. Invest 3 percent of your income back into yourself. Spend that 3 percent on personal “research and development” and on upgrading your skills. If you invest 3 percent back into yourself, you will never have to worry about money again. Never become complacent about this, even as you begin to attain success. If you do, you will find yourself slipping backward.

  2. Read for one hour each day in your chosen field. Take careful notes you can review regularly. Highlight or underline important points, then go back and transfer all those points into a spiral notebook or an iPad. You will then have a synopsis of important ideas you can read until you memorize them. This method is used by some of the most successful men and women in the world.

  3. Listen to CDs in your car. Turn your car into a “university on wheels.” Always have educational and motivational CDs playing. You spend between 500 and 1,000 hours each year in your car. If you turn that driving time into learning time, you can become one of the best-educated people of your generation.

Beliefs



In the most basic sense, a belief is any guiding principle, faith, or passion that can find great meaning in life. Unlimited stimuli are available to us. Beliefs are the pre-arranged, organized filters for our perceptions of the world. When we believe something is true, it is like delivering a command to our brain on how to represent what is occurring.

John Stewart Mill, the English philosopher, once wrote, “One person with a belief is a social power equal to ninety-nine who have only interests.” That is precisely beliefs open the door to excellence.

Beliefs deliver a direct command to your nervous system. When you know something is true, you go into the state of it being true. Handled effectively, beliefs can be the most powerful forces for creating good in our lives.

Remember, whether you say you can or can't do something, you are right. Both kinds of beliefs have great power. The question is, what kinds of beliefs are best to have, and how do we develop them? I believe the birth of excellence really begins with our awareness that beliefs are a choice.

Norman Vincent Peale once said:
"Believe in yourself! Have faith in your abilities! Without a humble but reasonable confidence in your own powers you cannot be successful or happy."
That is some great advice to follow...
