Business Motivation – March 3, 2010

You Are What You Think Whatever thoughts you plant in your subconscious mind and nourish every day with conviction and emotion will one day become a reality. Constant repetition carries conviction. Repeat something often enough and it will start to become you. A change in what you tell yourself will result in a change in your behavior. What you impress upon your mind, you’ll inevitably become. Self suggestion makes you master of yourself. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

Business Motivation – March 1, 2010

You Determine Your Attitude Your attitude is not determined by circumstances, but by how you respond to your circumstances. You can respond positively or negatively to any situation. It’s how you react to events, not the events themselves, that determines your attitude. Any challenge facing you is not as important as your attitude towards it, for that will determine your success or failure.

Business Motivation – February 26, 2010

Opportunity Lies In The Midst Of Difficulty Every problem has hidden in it an opportunity so powerful that it literally dwarfs the problem. The greatest success stories were created by people who recognized a problem and turned it into an opportunity. You’ll find that every situation, properly perceived, offers you an opportunity. As fast as each opportunity presents itself, use it. No matter how tiny an opportunity may be, use it. You’ll find new directions when you have an open mind and a willing hand. Successful people don’t achieve their distinction by having some new talent or opportunity presented to them. They developed an opportunity that was at hand. You must make your own opportunities if you want success. They are all around you. Open your eyes and act on them.

Keeping Balance Life is a balancing act, it requires us to evaluate our activities and keep a perspective in all that we do. Falling off a curb is a lot different then falling off a ten-story building. The higher we are on life’s journey the more critical balance becomes. Life is also like riding a bicycle; balance is lot easier when you’re moving then when you’re stopped. Everyone needs to stop sometime, just remember that when you do it helps to put your feet down.

Business Motivation – February 22, 2010

You Won’t Get Anywhere Without A Goal A life without purpose is like a ship without a rudder. The purpose of a goal is to focus your attention. Your mind will reach toward achievement only when it has a goal. There is no achievement without goals. Establish a goal worth working for. Your goal will keep you going in tough times. Always have something ahead of you. Continuously visualize your next step. Keep moving after you achieve your goal and set another. Momentum is maintained by always having something to look forward to. Constantly give yourself something to work for. Do what you can do well, and do well whatever you can do. You can plant your dream with a goal. (Reprinted with permission, Sam Maitz, Director of Marketing Technology, Leadership Management® International, Inc.)

Business Motivation – February 19, 2010

Reality Forms Around Your Commitments When you care enough for a given result, you’ll almost certainly attain it. All of your dreams can come true, if you have the courage to pursue them. Intense anticipation will transform your possibilities into reality. Strong desires will in time externalize themselves into concrete fact. Your desires are the precursors of the things which you are capable of having and doing. Weak desires will bring you weak results, just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat. The intensity of your desire governs the power with which your energies will be directed. Desire is the starting point for success. If you want it, you can have it.
