You First

Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job. I’ve worked hard on my personal development, and I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime. But here’s the great axiom of life: To have more than you’ve got, become more than you are. Unless you change how you are, you’ll always have what you’ve got. – Jim Rohn, from his classic “Lessons on Life” gift book.

Success

“How do I define success? Let me tell you, money’s pretty nice. But having a lot of money does not automatically make you a successful person. What you want is money and meaning. You want your work to be meaningful, because meaning is what brings the real richness to your life.” Oprah Winfrey

“Don’t aim for success if you want it; just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.”
David Frost

Live The Life You Want

January 24, 2012 VELINDA Leave a comment

Affirmations have the ability to transform bad habits into good habits. They allow you to be and stay mentally focused. Affirmations have the power to help you live the life you want. Think about this… how many successful people out there say to themselves, “I’m not that great… there are so many people out there that are better than me?” The answer is none!

Your affirmations cannot be vague; they must be specific and believable. If you choose to say to yourself, “I am going to make a million dollars in 2012,” you very well may be setting yourself up for failure. Ultimately, you may want to make a million dollars, but let’s face it, you’ll need to do a lot of work to get there. The secret is to change the affirmation to specific actions. Your affirmations shouldn’t be just the desired result; they should be the actions you take to get the result you want.

Affirmations are another word for prayer, meditation, visualization, imagination, etc. They are powerful encouragements that you feed yourself when repeating them. List your affirmations and read them aloud in the morning when you wake up, during your day, and before you go to bed at night. Then watch the magic happen!
