Reach Dreams

Are you where you want to be? Most people know what they want. They just don’t have big enough reasons why they want it. Knowing why you want something, why you really want something is one of the biggest keys to your success in everything.

 

What motivates you? It’s an answer you have to find out for yourself. There are so many things that can make everyone happy, but to choose one of the may be the hardest part.

 

Visualize this, pray for this, ask for this, meditate on this, or whatever it is you do. Put feeling into it, write the reasons down, put it somewhere you will see it every day. Look at it every day. Get inspired by it. Walt Disney used to say, “If you can imagine it, you can engineer it.”

 

Identify something you would like to accomplish. Determine if there is a passion that is crying out to be pursued. Write it out and do something every day to help manifest your vision. In addition, practice verbalizing your vision. See your words. Feel the energy of your voice. Convey the integrity of your intention. Practice daily as often as you choose.

 

In one of his books, Zig Ziglar says, “One definition of insanity is believing that you can keep doing what you usually do and get different results.”

 

Think about it, each time you take a step you’ll be closer towards it. Trying to achieve something without setting a goal is like walking blindly through the dessert in search of treasure, but without having a map or any idea what you are really looking for. Goal setting is a standard technique used by professional athletes, successful business people and high achievers in all fields. It gives you long term vision and provides you with short term motivation. While you should strive for success, you should start your goals at a point you know you can achieve and gradually build up to bigger and more difficult short term goals. The great benefit to short term goals is they give you a feeling of achieving something with each successful goal.

 

Break your long term goals into short term goals and each day and night write a goal for the next day. If you focus on small steps you will eventually accomplish your goal. For each milestone make sure you have a reward. Take some time for your self. You can soak in the tub or take a nap or buy a new outfit, anything that will make you feel good about your accomplishments. The process of achieving goals and seeing this achievement gives you confidence that you will be able to achieve higher and more difficult goals later on.

Goals aid in deriving a reason to succeed; they give you something to strive for; the reason to keep on pushing. Goals give you a reason to want to continue on, because you know the things you have worked so hard to achieve are just around the corner.

 

If you feel a deep passion for something and you create focus, commitment and perseverance, anything can be accomplished and your so called “impossible” dream can become very real indeed.

 

Life is too precious to waste living it without a plan or goal.

Attitude is a choice

We all know, is the nature of human to make mistake. Who have never made a mistake in his entire life? We have seen big guys coming up, gone down, and yet they can come up again. What can we learn from them?. One of the things we can learn from them is a way of thinking and their courage in making a choice of attitude that should be decided to produce change for the better.

I believe we create our own luck, whether it’s good or bad. Consciously, or unconsciously, we may have ourselves at some time or another, produced our current conditions, either in our bodily health or other circumstances.

Because not much happens by chance, most things, good or bad, comes into our lives as a result of the thoughts we engage in, or by what God ordains to get our attention.

It’s easy to blame someone, or something outside of ourselves, and make excuses as to why we may be experiencing certain unpleasant situations. But, we must be mature enough to take full responsibility for our own lives and quit playing the part of the victim. It’s liberating when you can say, “I got myself into this, and with God’s help, I can get out.” There is no power in acting like a victim.

Learning through the experience of others is the shortest route to filling up that piece of paper. It shows you the right path that has already been bashed through by your forerunner and prevents you from repeating the same mistakes that have already been made.

There is no easy way out of trouble, but there is a simple way. Think rightly instead of wrongly, and conditions will begin to improve.

What is thinking rightly? It’s what the holy book says about you, your circumstances, and God. It is the truth. Thinking wrongly has to do with our emotions. Since emotions are inconsistent, they cannot be trusted. Unfortunately, this is where most people make major choices in life, during an emotional high or low. It’s a recipe for disaster! A person should never make a decision based on emotion.

As long as we go on thinking wrongly about ourselves and our lives, the same sort of difficulties will continue to harass us. Every seed must inevitably bring forth after its own kind, and thought is the seed of destiny.

When we think rightly, by doing and saying what God’s Word says about our situations, sooner or later, all ill health, poverty, loneliness, and inharmony must disappear. Life is a choice. We agree with the things that good, or we choose to agree with things that are negative. All our options.

Determining which we choose is a glorious adventure that will determine which direction our life choices. Your choice will determine your success. Success is not destination. Success is a journey.

Embracing Tragedy

A week ago, I met an old friend. We have not seen for 15 years. He looked fresh, bright faces, seemed optimistic view of life. Fifteen years ago, as I recall it very different circumstances. At that time the material he’s quite good. But mentally, his condition again slumped. Less positive life habits. Love the nightlife, working hard in the daytime. So throughout the day is spent outside the home. He has a wife and kids are still small. He’s so crazy nightlife, almost no day without him going to the night club. Until one day, his son fell ill. His wife calls, and he simply replied, “take it to the doctor”, while continuing to enjoy the nightlife. Finally, the wife went to the doctor alone, and the doctor advised hospitalization at the hospital. The results of examination of the child states Leukemi hit. Since then we never saw again.

By remembering the past is unpleasant, I ventured to ask him,

“How’s your son who was sick?”

“He can not help. One year since he entered the hospital, his condition grew worse, and eventually he died. ” Said my friend.

“What did you do then?” Ask me.

“I was really shocked. I just realized, that I have neglected my family who was supposed to be my responsibility. “He said.

“So?” I asked further.

“I realized, that all my habits must be ended. I had to change tack. I finally know that my life for them – my wife and my two children who were still alive. ” My friend went on.

Our conversation kept rolling, from topic to topic. Until finally he said something that touched my heart,

“My friend, now maybe I am more happy after going through all that. I have a way of life more clearly, and different priorities now. “

Then he continued, “you do not know who you are and what your true self until you are really tested. You will get something more from your failures than your successes. “

How do you feel while experiencing an event like this my friend. It was hard to feel you are positive. But that’s what happens on my friend’s, and he looked at the tragedy in his life as a defining moment in his life. Events which overturn everything for him.

What can we take lessons from the events above? He did not reject these tragedies, but he hugged a friend. A thought that makes the failure as a friend, may seem strange in your ears. But in fact, that your failure to make friends or enemies, you who decide. If you sing a song of sadness in every failure that you meet, then that failure will still be your enemy. However, if you learn from every failure you experienced, then you will be able to reap the wisdom thereof. And you will get a very valuable lesson for your next success.

Actually, what is required of you is the right attitude. Zig Ziglar in a book once said, “The problem is not the problem, but your attitude toward the problem that is the problem.” Your attitude toward a failure, determine your altitude after failure. Many people who do not understand it. Failure is a package of a success. If you want to achieve success, you must be prepared to accept failure and learn from them. Is familiar with the process.

Sydney Harris said,

“A winner knows how much still remains to be learned, although he is considered an expert by others. A loser wants to be an expert by others before realizing how little he knows. “

Between Failure And Success In Your Life

Most people believe that there is a wide gulf between those who fail with the success. There is a kind of impression, that they will not be able to cross the chasm in achieving their dreams. There is one little secret is to know, that the difference between failure and success is not too large. The question is whether these differences?
People fail, they stop to not get up one more time while a failure. But successful people, they always rise once more from every failure they encountered. The quality that makes one stand of each failure is perseverance. That small difference makes a big difference between successful people and people fail. The change of failure as a stepping stone to reach the peak of success. Ductility is what distinguishes those who succeed their premises only dreamed about.
There is nothing that can be achieved easily. There are no shortcuts to a real success. One way to turn failure into a stepping stone to success is to develop endurance and perseverance. This way you can learn, by developing positive habits of commitment that you take if you are reluctant or lazy.
There are some things we can do to boost stamina and the ability to quickly recover when a failure:
1. Determine objectives clearly.
One main thing that makes a person can survive amid the failure is the reason or purpose clear, where you will go or what you will become. Because the goal is perfectly clear going to fuel your journey that empowers tenacity. With a clear objective process that you do you will be able to enjoy because you are filled with passion.
2. No reason.
The only reason for the success is that they do not have a reason, which will hinder their journey towards the achievement. Instead of a loser, a lot of things they can use to reason, and no action, so they stopped and did not go everywhere. Most people will be looking for excuses after they missed an opportunity.
No matter how much you have opportunities missed or mistakes you’ve made should not excuses. Accept the criticism, accept their responsibilities. And keep trying.
3. Incentives for your own.
Incentives will make you survive. Many large companies that provide incentives for its employees. If you provide proper incentives yourself in every Stage of your trip, then the long-term goals will not be too heavy.
Walter Elliot says, “Perseverance is not a long race, but a series of short races.” One thing to remember, is that the incentive is only useful if you provide when you reach the target. is the incentive to adjust the target. This means adjusting the mass scale incentive target. Do not provide incentives to the island of Bali is due to spend a bowl of vegetables. You certainly know what I mean.
4. Develop a strong determination.
To develop resilience in the long run, you must develop a strong determination continuously. Learn to become a person who has a strong determination. Read books biography of people who have reached the top. Napoleon Hill said, “The wages of all our efforts we will only gain if we do not give up.”
Remember, the only difference between a small success with great success are those who achieve great success is to keep trying.
Is there something that makes you hesitate to step forward?

Learning Laughing at Ourselves

Nothing is as good as a healthy sense of humor – especially the ability to laugh at themselves – which can make you immune to the frustration of the problems you face every day. Many things that we encounter from time to time that make us upset, and frustration leads. Perhaps agreements met, which was one location, may wait too long, you may queue ticket so long, suddenly there was someone who casually barging in front of you without feeling guilty. Or maybe your idea stolen your friends, and your friend gets the credit. But most often make a person upset is the response of others on the relationship unhealthy relationship.
If not able to laugh at yourself, you will have to travel a long and difficult. You have to fight hard to defend yourself with the changes. You have to turn into flexible in building relationships with others. Both co-workers, relatives, spouse, with your child or your family others. When you sarcastic people, know your weaknesses, and sometimes plainly show, you might be offended and defensive. Your reaction is like this it will clarify your shortcomings and make the deficiency will look much worse. More than that, your reaction to the comments of others or your partner will create new problems that demand solutions. The effect of these attitudes will make your life becomes ineffective, is a “small problem” would seem like a big problem for you.
If we observe the people who live happy and successful relationship with, you will definitely see that they are able to laugh at themselves. They generally have the necessary perspective to be fair and humble when their weaknesses to the surface. This will create a healthy environment. Your relationships with others will bring opportunities for growth and healthy, because each side feels safe.
In a potentially interactions tend to heat up, in many cases such a situation can be alleviated and forgotten just like that. One example, we were having dinner at a place in the middle of town. Incidentally next to our table were two men and a woman who was having dinner and talking. At first glance we heard the emotional tone of the conversation. The woman said, “You talk too much” with his eyes staring at the man, visibly angry. The man reacted with a light laugh and say, “You’re right, I dominate the conversation. Sorry … .. “. This reaction directly reduce tensions between them. More than that, his words, his ability to see the truth in sarcasm mate, his willingness to be humble, and willingness to acknowledge the trend might ease the situation before it could be hot.
In many cases, we often find, hundreds of conversations like this will turn into an argument. Because instead of responding with humor and humility, but those who have not commented sweet react defensive and assume that a serious problem. The inability to maintain a sense of humor encourage hurled sharp words and a trigger counter-argument.
With a laugh at yourself, not being completely serious, to relax in relationships, then you will be a nice person.
Good luck … ..

Stay in your strength zone

Everyone always wants the best achievement that can be achieved. But not many people realize, that the achievement of a good requires a plan, focus and courage to do it. And it all takes “potential power” of each person. Therefore we need to know our own strength it is. It is very important, because by being aware of the “strength zone“, then we will realize who we are.

Every person must have the power zone, and zones of weakness. If we choose an area of ground, then we will be a mediocre. Our potential will be wasted and can not come to the fullest. So our choice to work on what zone, it becomes very important.
How to know the two zones? Much we can do, including:

1. Personality tests. We need to do it. So that we can find out in more detail, your strengths and weaknesses. With our personality tests can be more aware of who we are.

2. Advice of others. In general we are very difficult to judge ourselves. Therefore, ask for advice the parties to assess how independent our potential. Things like this are a little hard to do, because it takes greatness of soul. However, such efforts will help a lot.

3. Personal experience. Continued to move toward what you want to accomplish. Each stage of achievement, it is important to your values. Failure would be very useful for your progress is bigger, if you always get up one time more than any failures that you experience. Personal experience is not always the best teacher. But the experience will be evaluated as the best teacher.
The more you are in your strength zone, the greater your ability to achieve your dreams.
William Gladstone, British Prime Minister, once said,

“The wise are those who do not spend the energy to pursue what is not according to him, but still more wise people who can choose and firmly follow the best from among the things he can do well.”

Right?

Attitude … .. whether it?

Attitude is an inner feeling in his expresion in the action or behavior. And that is often reflected in our faces. Therefore an attitude would be very easy to influence the situation around it. Whether to cause boredom or warmth. Therefore, attitude determines the success or failure of a relationship. Good family relationships, bussiness, and friendship.

Why become an important

Because the factor that represents yourself. The attitude you show who you are. We live a busy world. We associate the midst of a thousand kinds of people with backgrounds. How successful relationships with many human background? The answer is your attitude.

Because the attitude is not a fixed price that can not be changed. But the attitude is a choice. And we all must take responsibility for what we choose.
There is one story, a couple was met with friends in a high school reunion. One of his friends, asked the wife,
“Hey Mita, whether you are a happy marriage?” Asked a friend of the woman.
“Sure, why?” Replied the wife.
“Does your husband make you happy?” The friend continued.
The woman thought for a moment. Then say,
“Oh no. He never made me happy. “The woman is saying.
“So how you can keep your marriage?” The friend was asked in surprise
“Indeed, my husband has tried to make me happy. My husband is a good and responsible. However, it was not him that made me happy. But the happiness it is my personal responsibility. ” The woman answered.
That’s the attitude. Each person must take responsibility for his own. We are not a drama, where we have determined to play a character like anything. Often we see the impression of a drama series on television, the bearer of bad character will continue to look bad until the story was finished. We are humans, who can choose and develop to become better.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, once said,
“What lies behind and in front of us are the things that is very small compared to what lies within us ..”
If you change your attitude, then the things that others will follow.
Is not this so?

Develop appreciation for your life

Often we know some people who like to complain about the situation. Many complained that, whether the weather is too hot, the bed is too hard, serving less food tastes, or too-short vacation, that salaries are too small and there are many other things that he’s complaining. People who like this actually includes those who lack respect for life. They do not care how well they get.

There is a story, a woman who was transferred to a nursing home. She is a blind woman, who had accompanied her husband for 70 years and had died. This woman is very independent. A time comes in a nursing home, she had to wait in the front room to wait for his room that is being prepared. When she was led to her room, her maid told her in detail about the content and layout of all existing things in her room.

“I like it.” The woman said this with enthusiasm.
“But you have not seen it. See you later. “Said the waiter.
“It has nothing to do.” Said the blind woman, “Happiness is something you decide from the beginning. That is how I arrange my mind. “Blind woman continued.

Happiness is often affected by many circumstances that surrounded him. Though the award is not a matter of taste or sophistication. Appreciation is a matter of perspective.

Start with small things. If you can learn to appreciate and be grateful for small things, then you will appreciate the big things, and everything that happened between them.

Find Something positive.

It’s not always easy. But if we seriously want to try it, then we’ll find something good, even in the midst of the most difficult situation though.

The world is filled with people who are negative. In fact, they like to gather together. However, positive people are also everywhere. Our task is to find it. Associate with them, people are positive. Be closer and friendly withthem, so you will increasingly strengthened.

Tell a positive

Try to cultivate the habit of giving a positive comment in every conversation. Give credit to others by praising something positive to others with sincerity. Support for them can develop. Actions that will be very positive impact on you and others.

Respect others as you respect yourself.

Grow

In everyday interactions, we often meet with people of diverse hue, and habits. There are apathetic about what would happen to him, but there is also an optimist. Several indifferent to life, but many are very concerned for her future.
How to think we should be in accordance with our physical growth. To become an adult it takes courage to fill more experience. There is a point, the phrase which states that the old nature and become adults need struggle. Because the required experience sufficient maturity to give birth to think and act mature.
Grow and become adults is closely related to how we define life goals. Each challenge, bitterness, and the difficulty the more sharpening our maturity.
A leader is that they are able to make obstacles in life as climbing a ladder to ascend to a higher level. They are not afraid of challenges. They realized that the experience would strengthen their inner growth.
Think big. Do not think they are. But think that gives an echo and resonance or vibration large. Leaders must give more influence, and provide benefits to the larger environment.
The future is not something to look forward, but the future is something that must be prepared. We ourselves have to paint it. Great people are those who have the big picture of him.
And last but not least, is the action. Action will determine whether we are getting closer to the direction of our future painting or deviate from the purpose of our lives.

Powerful Visualization Secrets

One of the kindest persons I’ve ever met has shared with me some of her visualization secrets to get what you want in life. I want to share them with you too:

1. If you visualize, you have to be in the picture. Example, you visualize a car, its type, model, color, etc. BUT What you should be doing is to visualize yourself riding or driving the car of your dreams.

She said before, she used to visualize a silver suv; what happens is that she sees so many silver suvs passing by, without her in it!

2. It helps if you do visualization at a specific time and do it regularly. DON’T do it just once in a while, then easily give up.

3. Don’t be shy in making a request from the universe. Don’t think you can’t ask for more if you have so many blessings already.

We are encouraged to dream big, and everything that we need is already within us.

4. You can also inject fun in doing visualizations. She says, “My seatmate sees herself jumping up and down while doing the task she is thinking of. Injecting an element of fun encourages you to do it repetitively.”

5. Think pictures. She says, “I have been affirming that ‘I am a friendly person’ but I cannot picture it out in my mind. So I have to create an image that relates to that like I am smiling and shaking hands with a person I just met.”

“Like if you say ‘I am rich’ you have to ‘materialize’ it. What does being rich mean to you? Is it seeing in the computer so many people ordering your products? Encashing checks? It should be an activity.”

6. You have to really desire, believe, and accept. You desire the thing or activity with passion, you believe that it will be yours (that this or something better will be given), and accept it.

Don’t be afraid. Acceptance is being prepared for all the attachments and responsibilities that goes with what you asked for.

7. Visualization must be done repeatedly. Initially, you may doubt that it is impossible for you to get what you ask for. But as you do it repeatedly, you tend to “hypnotize” yourself and believe what you are saying. Repetition causes you to focus on your goal.

8. You can do it with your eyes open! You don’t have to do meditations (like you need to hear gongs, go through the colors of the rainbow, or say “ommm”) first to be able to go into the alpha state. You just need to be relaxed and just have the image in your mind.
