Business Motivation – July 25, 2011

What You See Is What You Get The realities of life result from many outside factors, none of which you can control. Your attitude, however, reflects the way in which you evaluate what’s happening to you. It’s not your situation, it’s your reaction to the situation that’s important. Things always seem to turn out best for those people who can make the best out of the way things turn out. Life at any time can become difficult. Life at any time can become easy. It all depends upon how you adjust yourself to life. You cannot always control your circumstances. But you can always think positive thoughts. There is nothing either good or bad, only your thinking makes it so. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

When You Cease To Dream, You Cease To Live If you want to enlarge your life, you must first enlarge your thought of it and yourself. You can lift yourself by your thoughts, and your vision of the future will help you climb mountains. Hold the ideal of yourself as you long to be, your ideal of what you long to attain the ideal of health, efficiency, success. You’ll become as small as your controlling desire or as great as your dominant aspiration. High achievement always takes place in the framework of high expectation.

You Can Make Your Dreams A Reality You have the power and the opportunity to change your life. You can make anything you want of it. It’s not difficult, it just takes some effort. See things as you would have them be instead of as they are. Develop a personal plan that focuses on what you want, not on what you have. Your imagination will show you how to turn your possibilities into reality. Visualize your goals and your subconscious will begin to work toward making those mental pictures come true. If you picture yourself vividly as winning, that alone will contribute immeasurably to your success. Knowing your destination is all you need to get there.

You Have The Power To Live Your Dreams The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that’s the day you start moving down the road to success. No one else can do it for you. Only you can make it happen. You’re the only one that has to live your life. Success on any major scale requires you to accept responsibility. It’s up to you to choose the thoughts and actions that will lead you to success. Your life will be what you make of it. Nothing will ever happen by itself. Success will come your way once you realize that you have to make it come your way by your own actions. The power to succeed is yours alone.

Always Do Your Best At Everything Make it your life rule of living to always do your best. It’s your constant effort to be first-class in everything you attempt that will help you conquer the heights of excellence. Let superiority become your trademark. Do a little more each day than you think you possibly can. There is always a best way of doing everything. Find it. Do a little more than average and from that point on your progress multiplies itself out of all proportion to the effort you put out. Do more than you’re supposed to do and you can have or be or do anything you want. If you want to enjoy enduring success, travel a little in advance of the rest of the world. Your greatness will come from being great in the little things. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

You Must Pay A Price For Success Whatever you want in life, you must give up something to get it. The greater the value, the greater the sacrifice required of you. There’s a price to pay if you want to make things better, and a price you’ll pay for just leaving things as they are. Nothing worthwhile comes easily to anyone. Work, continuous work and hard work, is the only way to accomplish results that last. Don’t let the fear of change stop you from pursuing your dreams. There is no success at bargain basement prices. The highway to success is a toll road. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

The Future Is A Big Adventure Sooner or later, those who win are those who think they can. The cards you’re dealt in life are less important than the way you play them. Every day you face a new deck and new cards. Carve out a niche for yourself in your imagined future. Begin immediately to think and feel yourself as successful. To achieve your goal in life, you need to project your end result. Focus on your future, not your past. Prepare for your future, don’t live in the past. Relish your good memories and use any bad ones as lessons in life. Think of the elation, the satisfaction, the joy you’ll feel when you’ve achieved your objective. Carry these ecstatic feelings with you every day and they will bring your desired goals into view. Success is waiting for you. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.

Business Motivation – September 9, 2009

Fear Is Conquered By Taking Action Most of your obstacles would melt away if, instead of cowering before them or procrastinating about dealing with them, you make up your mind to walk boldly through them.  Nothing in life is to be feared. It is only to be understood. When you dare to face the things that scare you, you open the door to freedom and success.  Don’t be afraid to take the steps you need to take to make those positive changes in your life. To fight your fears, you must act. Your fears increase when you wait, put off, or postpone. If you understood your situation enough, you would never be afraid. The attainment of your dreams is but a determined action away. Successful people take action. === Reprinted with permission Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology Leadership Management® International, Inc.
