Greetings, Maniacs! Here we are again. Finally. Got the kids back to school and we're making progress on our long-promised projects. We've also been doing some research into tools you can use beyond the self-development world. Tools you can use in your businesses, no matter what they may be and tools you can use in your personal life. You'll start seeing them show up on the website and in the ezine soon. Our main article this week continues the series on how to move from IN-Action to Action. It's about cleaning out the lingering negatives that used to motivate you. This time we also have a guest article by Carlos Garcia of the Wealthy Secrets newsletter that segues perfectly into the practical actions to take as you begin using your new positive motivations. Let's get right to it! 2.) Article - Moving From Inaction to Action Part Two Last time we talked about how to start re-programming your motivations. You can't just up and decide that you are now only motivated achievement and positive images. Your mind will rebel at this. We gave you an outline of how to begin going about this. Review it on our website in the ezine archives. Hopefully by now you have made progress in changing the things you use to motivate yourself and are taking consistent actions as a result. So, what's next? The hard stuff. Yep. I am afraid it's true. The hard stuff. Once you begin to take these consistent actions that are based on positive and empowering motivations, you must clean house. Your mental house that is. We all carry a lot of baggage, especially related to all those fears and negative motivations we used to be slaves to. There is the temptation and the very real possibility that you will fall back into them when things get rough. Wanna know a secret? I've done it too. There. I said it. It's out in the world. Fric is not perfect! What? You knew that already? Oh. Okay. Back to the story. Seriously, many times in my life, I have stumbled and fallen back into the old patterns. We all do it. No matter how long you have been studying self-development, it's likely that you have done it and will do it again, even if only on a small scale. That is part of our nature. The key here is to minimize them. We can minimize them by our cleaning house. You should still have that list of things that motivate you from the last lesson. Take it out and look at the negative ones. Of all these things listed, some will be pretty scary. Others will be silly. The silly ones you may have already recognized as silly and they aren't an issue any more. But the scary ones are the ones that will stay with you over time. So, how do we deal with them, Fric? Glad you asked! One technique I like is a technique I learned from Tony Robbins. You'll need to go to a quiet room with no distractions. Close your eyes and imagine yourself in that scary situation. Get in the moment so that you can feel it a little. Don't go too deep into this part, because we don't want to bring this back even worse. Now you'll need to play out the scenario in your head but you will distort it in silly ways. Make the people purple or polka-dotted. Have calliope music playing in the background. Imagine people talking like Pee-Wee Herman or dressed like clowns. Make them trip and fall or do whatever silly thing comes to you. Run it at super speed. Run it backwards. Now while you are doing this, your fear should lessen because you are breaking the pattern. The more you do, the bigger the break. You may need to practice this technique a lot, for days or even weeks. If you do, you will notice that it will be harder and harder to be afraid of it. You will start to laugh or smile while running this technique. As a matter of fact, you should make yourself laugh and smile while doing it. That will release chemicals in your body that will enhance the technique. This won't work for everyone. I admit that now, because nothing works 100% of the time for 100% of the people. But try it. If nothing else, it may lessen your fears. Here's another. Write out the scenario involved in each of your negative emotions on separate pieces of paper or on index cards if they can fit. If possible be detailed. You may want to make copies for multiple uses. Then write out the positive motivation that replaces it. Read the negative scenario. Now burn it. Yep. Burn it. And visualize the scenario going up in flames as you watch the paper burn. Then read the positive scenario and imagine it being built on the ashes of the old. Repeat as necessary. But do so safely. That's all for now. Next time we will talk about what to do now that you have gotten rid of your negative motivators. Fric. Apply the top 8 secrets to
successfully work at home What I'm about to reveal to you are 8 proven secret strategies, that will help you accomplish positive results with the time you spend on your home business. Ready? 1. Imagine yourself as the CEO of a major corporation. This technique will put you in the proper frame of mind, to envision yourself as your own boss, and that you are in complete control of your business. As the CEO of your corporation, it is very crucial that you project where your business will spiral towards in the next 5 years. Remember A DREAM written down with a date becomes a GOAL. A goal broken down becomes a PLAN..
Therefore, you need to… 2. Set Specific Goals
When setting proper goals you need to exercise 2 simple strategies: First and foremost, *Set Your Long Term Goals* (a.k.a. Dreams) The bottom line is this, if you want to head in the right direction, than you must know where you want to be in 3 months, 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, even 5 years from now. This technique is amazingly effective when you type your goals down, and print them out. (Be sure you do it, I'll tell you why later.) Secondly, you must always set and accomplish daily goals, so that you will achieve your long term dreams (goals). When you know where you want to be and where you are headed, than you will know exactly what you need to do to get there. This will definitely get the ball rolling for you to set your daily goals. 3. Set up a *daily* To-Do Lists - Now that you have distinguished your daily goals, the easiest way to accomplish them is by working on a priority basis always working on the most important task first. Design your daily to-do list at the end of your work day, so you know exactly what you need to do when you wake up in the morning. Make your daily tasks realistic, and be sure that they are accomplished. Think of each task you accomplish as a stepping stone towards your dreams. The key here is for you to go to bed at night without having any regrets, and knowing that you have achieved everything you could that day. Here's a neat trick: Use Microsoft Outlook's task manager to prioritize your daily To-Do list. Outlook will let you manage your tasks on a per hour basis. It is very crucial to avoid procrastination if you plan on getting where you want to be in 5 years. Here's the best part: Outlook will keep reminding you, if your tasks have not been accomplished. This gives you absolutely no excuses not to work. Which brings me to my next point… 4. Devote a *specific amount* of hours each and every day... ...to work on your business. To avoid getting side tracked, DO NOT surf the net, close your instant messenger conversations during this period of time. The more side tracked you become, the further away you will be from your dreams. 5. Develop a positive routine Research proves that eating breakfast every morning, will help you to think better, and even work more efficiently on your business. Always take 15 - 30 minute breaks during the day to avoid straining your eyes. Have a good night's sleep, (6 to 8 hours is recommended.) Most importantly, try exercising daily because this will help fuel energy through out your body. 6. Stay organized, and focused Tape your goals list on the wall by your work area, so that you will be reminded of what you are striving towards, each and everyday. This important step alone will help guide you towards your ultimate goal, and keep you focused on what you should be doing. If you ever feel that you don't have the energy to work on your business, simply take a look at your long term goals list, and let it remind you of your dreams. Use this power to help you move forward in the direction you want to go. 7. Check your email ONCE every hour Some of us love the idea of receiving email daily, and in most cases would likely check it every few minutes. This can be a very devastating routine that you will become accustomed to, be sure you eliminate it before it becomes routine. The real secret to running a successful home based business, is to spend your time wisely and efficiently, by developing a positive daily routine. 8. Have fun This may be the most important step of all. Make sure that you enjoy every minute you spend working on your business. If you can't stand the idea of getting up in the morning to work, than you might as well look forward to going back to that J.O.B. ( Just Over Broke ) you dread. You must enjoy what you do, in order to fully succeed and accomplish your long term goals. I have given you these 8 powerful strategies, the only way that they will work for you is if you apply them right now. I wish you the best of luck with your home business, and I hope that you have a prosperous year. “What’s The Secret Of This 25 Year Old ‘Average Guy’ Who Makes $10,000 - $15,000 Monthly From The Comfort of His Home?” Click Here To Learn His Secret Copyright © 2003 "Wealthy Secrets" Newsletter.
