Will yourself to Victory every time!

2007-08-12T08:49:00.000-04:00

Whatever the mind can
conceive and believe it can achieve.
--Napoleon Hill

Your subconscious mind creates everything in your
life based on the messages and information you
send to it. You are always sending messages and
thoughts to your subconscious mind and 90% of
those messages are worthless or are working
against your real aspirations. Then you may
question yourself as to why things are never
getting any better no matter how hard you try to
change them.

The messages sent to your subconscious mind are
your thoughts, beliefs and actions. Your
subconscious mind is always sifting through the
information you send it -- and if that information
you send is negative then you will only have a
negative reality. We must combat the negative
imagery sent to it.

Understand that your subconscious mind does not
have an ethical clause. It does not say that the
message you are sending is good for you so let's
develop that. It will only go out and develop your
reality based on the messages you are sending to it.

Understanding your subconscious mind is similar to
understanding how a picture is developed; the
subconscious mind is like a negative, it has no
emotion; it can’t see inside you and see you fighting
to try and change your life for the better. However,
when you develop the negative, you actually get a
SHARPER more detailed picture of yourself. So,
changing your outlook is as easy as substituting
existing mental images with new ones, by doing
this, you can begin to see the relative ease with
which you can change your entire mental picture of
yourself and your present situation within your
subconscious mind. The subconscious captures
images just like a camera. Garbage in, garbage out.
Change your input change your outlook!

Are you aware that doctors now seriously believe
that 75% of all sickness and disease start in the
mind? That’s right…75 percent! Scientists have long
said that we use only 10% of our capable mind
power. 10-percent -- that's all. We go through life
only using 10% of the power of our mind. That 10
percent is creating 75% of all the sickness because
we don't even know how to use our mind properly.
Napoleon Hill taught us that if we think in the right
frame of mind we can grow rich. Remember though,
he wasn't just talking in financial terms. He was
talking about making our lives rich and
empowering!

The subconscious responds to habit and habitual
thinking. Being totally neutral in a moral sense, it is
happy to adopt any habit as “normal” - good or bad.

To your continued success,

The Mustard Seed has dreams too

2007-07-29T07:35:00.000-04:00

"Have the Faith of a Mustard Seed"

The smallest seed bears the strongest and most lasting tree. Each of you has hopes and dreams to be sure, but one of the main ingredients is having the faith to see them through. It is easy to have faith in good times, but in rough times the true character of a person shows through. Have Faith in yourself and the boundless good of the Universe.

Your life is yours to explore and revel in all its splendor. Limitless thinking begets limitless results. I implore you...don't hold yourself back from having the life of the "Kings and Emperors" of yesteryear.

Abundance is and always will be. It is evidenced everyday, the sun continues to shine everyday, food is provided everyday, air is provided everyday and whatever becomes your predominate thought will be provided to you...everyday. Think big, it is just as easy to manifest a small item into your existence as a large thing, the universe knows no bounds...only YOU do in your thinking.

It's OK to believe, it's OK to have what you desire...there is enough for everyone to enjoy. I am truly blessed in that Amy, my wife, helps me to believe everyday. She challenges me to reach my full-potential, she knows the importance of believing and having faith. I aspire to higher and higher goals through listening to her and believing in her wisdom and knowing all that she desires (her predominant thought) is for our eternal happiness, bliss, joy, success and ideal life. Thank you Darling.

I leave you with this today:

Remember this success formula;

Faith+Asking=Results

I call it the FAR principle...you indeed will go FAR in your life by simply remembering that formula and having the FAITH of the mustard seed.

To your inspired and purpose-driven day,

Coach John

Complete the Short Routes...Consistency builds Precision

2007-07-27T07:31:00.000-04:00

The following is the definition of consistency:
firmness of constitution or character.

Start out with small accomplishments and build
with success to larger and more powerful
fulfillment's of your dreams and desires. Each short
route you run with precision builds confidence as
you tackle the bigger issues of your life. Be
consistent with yourself, your family, and your
beliefs. Do not be swayed by naysayers and there
will be some. Remember this; they never built a
statue to a critic! Go for it, believe in yourself and
your ideal life, and know through consistent actions
consistent results will occur.

Everyday take time for yourself to stop and reflect
on your life, it doesn’t have to be long...a few
minutes before bed or maybe at lunch. Continue to
stay focused on your goals and believe in yourself
and your chosen life direction. Dedication and
consistency are a powerful one-two punch that no
stinking thinking can stand up too.

Napoleon Hill, author of the classic Think and Grow
Rich, knew Thomas Edison and Henry Ford
personally. He said of both men that the ONLY thing
that was different about them from everyone else
was their persistence. Be persistent, persistence
pays huge dividend checks to you throughout your
life.
Napoleon Hill thought persistence was a pretty
important key to success --- he used the word 97
times in Think and Grow Rich and he devoted an
entire chapter to it. Some of his wisdom includes,
"The majority of people are ready to throw their
aims and purposes overboard, and give up at the
first sign of opposition or misfortune. A few carry
on DESPITE all opposition, until they attain their
goal. These few are the Fords, Carnegie's,
Rockefeller's, and Edison’s. There may be no heroic
connotation to the word “persistence,” but the
quality is to the character of man what carbon is to
steel”.

Be precise in life; define the intangible, persistence,
and perseverance yield massive positive results.
Fredrick Wilcox said, “Progress involves risk. You
can’t steal 2nd base with your foot still on first”.
How true, how so very true.

There are many ways to create success. One of the
chief ways is to become unstoppable. This
happens when your passion, desire and
willingness to do whatever it takes to reach your
success, meld together. When this happens it
creates an unstoppable force and nothing will be
able to keep you from achieving your goals.
When I look back over the times I attained
success it was clearly when I was unstoppable.
The ingredients that go into becoming unstoppable
are passion, desire and the willingness to do
whatever it takes.

Another key ingredient is to never entertain the
idea of giving up. You may be faced with hardships
along the way to meeting your goals, do not be
deterred. Situations happen in your life for a
reason, maybe to make you stronger, more
understanding, more tolerant or just more
acceptable to your belief in yourself. Everything
we strive for happens at a time that fits the
universal schedule for your accomplishments. An
old sales axiom goes like this; the sale is usually
consummated on the 6th close! Talk about
believing and persistence! Don’t give up on
yourself. That next try may just have been the one
needed to put you over the top. In the face of
adversity real winners are born!

When all of the key elements are present, you will
create an environment where success is certain.
Being unstoppable is about being fierce. Being
unstoppable doesn't mean that you won't come up
against obstacles and challenges. What it means is
you will figure a way around or even better yet
through whatever is in your way.

The Magic Formula to Success

2007-07-24T07:17:00.000-04:00

Success is the combination of many ingredients among these being...strength of character, passion for life, visualizing victory and having faith in yourself and the boundless abundance of the Universe.

Each of us has the ability to be, do and have ANYTHING we desire. You are the Creators of your ideal life. We are given at every turn in our lives the opportunity to access the path we are going on. Be smart, look ahead and ask; "Is this path of least resistance?" if the answer is no...make the change NOW.

You can have it all by doing these simple three things:

Believe

Receive

That's it...that is all there is to it...Success is given to those who ask, act and are grateful for the gift given to them. Be open to all possibilities, you are only limited by YOUR believing in the positive outcome of any situation...it is a UNIVERSAL LAW.

I have so many instances of "creating my life" or situations or people who make make life closer to where I want to go. The first and foremost is meeting my wife, Amy.

I projected for many years before I met her the following affirmation to myself (daily)..I AM meeting the women of my dreams, who is all that I ask for; loving, beautiful, caring, considerate and most of all willing to be my companion on this journey through life. Yes, low and behold by ASKING, it was granted, I BELIEVED and in the end I RECEIVED. It works...it is all about vibrationally matching your thoughts to your desired outcome.

Decide here and now what you desire your life to be...set out to match your thoughts with your actions. Work daily on making it a reality, read books, study successful people and align your thoughts with your ideal life and be amazed and astonished at what will unfold before you...I believe in your power, so must you.

I wish you much success and continue to visualize victory in your life...Believe like you have never believed before!

Be the Observer

2007-07-22T16:16:00.000-04:00

The hardest thing to do is to look at yourself from the vantage point of being an Observer.

Having an attitude of gratitude will take you to the place you desire. I am fortunate to have as my companion in this life my wife Amy. Daily I get to observe her beauty and grace as she moves through this life. She can observe me for who I am and thus gets the advantage of seeing me as I am. I on the other hand, have to take a step back and observe myself. To grow you must do the same.

As the observer you can ask questions like:

Is that how I want people to perceive me?
I am doing the best for myself and the people in my life?
I am being the most productive I can be at this very moment in time as it relates to my personal growth? If not, then change that.

Observing is a growth experience. You will grow by seeing and evaluating the real you. Remember, no matter the circumstances you find yourself in you can create any reality you desire. You are the CREATOR of your life. You have at your fingertips the "menu of the universe" you can either choose to take a spoonful or a whole plate of abundance...no matter there is enough for everyone and you can even go back for seconds if that is your wish.

Be an observer and see the true you..it will astonish and amaze you.

I wish you continued success and happiness!

“Believe and trust that the Universe is full of effortless abundance.”

2005-11-27T09:34:00.000-05:00

Today you make the first steps toward acknowledging that truly YOUR world is abundant. It is a state of mind and being. You must accept that you are a winner and a success. All that you desire will be yours if you change your emotional attachment to the old feelings of insecurity. It may have come from a moment in your childhood, a death of a parent or loved one at an early age and the insecurity that goes with living with the other struggling to get by. Maybe some small ingrained feeling is putting an obstacle in your way saying "What you think you can get that?" When you know if you believe in youself ANYTHING you really want and focus on getting, becomes your reality. Right now, at this very moment, I want you to call into your life positive forces to take you to the next level of your growth; eternal happiness, love, joy, financial and emotional wealth forevermore. It’s all there, it’s always been there, but the choice is yours to BELIEVE in the infinite power and faith of life and that you deserve it all. No more cowering in fear!

The law of attraction rewards any emotion with the same emotion.

From this point on I want you to attract wealth & happiness and to feel gratitude for your place in time. It is good to feel gratitude so then you are pulled into a situation that triggers even more gratitude.
When you want to see the law of attraction work its miracles, you must be pateient. Patience is the magic tool. It works on its own schedule and you must accept that! All good things take time to develop. Keep the faith and continue to believe in yourself!

Accept that whatever you did is done. You can't undo it. You've already attracted the situation you're in right now. You can't change that, but you can change what the next situation will be like the next time around. So walk into the new “room” and do it right this time. Also, all your feelings are valid. Feelings are triggered for many reasons - all feelings are real and must be acknowledged and felt before you can move on.

Remember, huge amounts of awareness, courage, persistence, perseverance, and determination are required when you are attempting to shift feelings. Just keep believing, believing, and believing.

Let’s continue on the path with Step 3 of Build the Foundation 1st!

Step 3: “Put in the Pilings for Strength”-PRACTICE & PLANNING

Practice and planning about achieving incredible things and living the charmed life filled with fun and excitement is always the first step to making your dreams come true. While most people at one time or the other haphazardly dream of having this or doing that, very few take this process to the next level of making these dreams come true. When it is time for action, the winners get to work while the would-be winners seem confused.

These would-be winners choose to play it safe and remain in their comfort zone, regardless of how uncomfortable in reality it may be for them. They are so overly concerned about taking a risk and making a error that they unfortunately assume the biggest risk of all. They choose to lose rather than play to win. From time to time, some of these pretenders can talk a pretty good game, but when it comes time to put it all out on the line and play hardball, their words speak much louder than their actions.

There is one and only one way for your life to get better. Your life will get better when you decide to change it for the better. Practice and plan to get to the next level. Whenever you want to change or alter the way your life is headed, change is the key. Don’t just talk about it, change it right then and there.

You need to walk the walk, talk the talk and live your life with intensity, belief and purpose. It is not enough to simply want to win, you have to show the will to win. You can fulfill your life’s goals on earth only when you are willing to meet the challenges of doing your very best and being your very best – every single moment of every single day. It is time to practice what you preach. Make absolutely sure at all times that your actions always speak louder than your words. People will judge you on your beliefs and your practices of them.

There is never a better time than right now for you to reach your true potential. There is no reason to wait, just do it. Practice and Plan out your dream life. Study it, refine it and put it into action, NOW! As a matter of fact, there has never been a better time for you to do whatever you have always wanted to do … than right now at this very moment in time. You cannot wait for the perfect moment that you want, practice your beliefs and principles and see the wondrous results that come from believing in yourself.

What do you believe?
Is your next step to put into practice your goals and aspirations … right now? Are you practicing putting your best to the test … right now? If not, then start right now, no excuses. In order to get where you want to go, you must first begin to plan. Yet the very act of planning seems to be the most common sticking point that people encounter on their “blueprint to success”.

I am sure you can count the friends and acquaintances you have known who truly wanted to make a difference, live their dreams, really intended to live with passion, but for one reason they couldn’t get it going. These well-intentioned individuals wanted to do it. In fact, I am positive, they really wanted to make all their dreams come true, but they never did. How could this happen? There is only one reason, they just couldn't get started, and they couldn’t get the principle of practice and planning down.

What’s is holding you back?
How many times have you wanted to move the Mountain, but didn't? I find it truly baffling how so many people can come up with thousands of excuses for not beginning, yet they can never come up with even one good reason. How many ideas have you been putting off for sometime? How many incredible adventures have you wanted to do but you never got around to making them a reality in your life? Now’s the time to make all of your dreams come true. No doubt about it, there has never been a better time to get started than ..Right now!

The Importance Of Planning

Planning is crucial to success in any undertaking. Sports teams always have a game-plan going in place before entering into battle against the opposing team. Military planners have their plan in place before heading into a conflict. Politicians base their plans on winning. Voters weigh the politician’s plan- if they will like it, they vote for them. People in general make their plans to meet family and friends, plan their children’s weddings, parties, gather at social events - you even plan your vacations before going. Well-planned events in your life probably brought you the most satisfaction because they ran so smoothly. Your day is likely planned out so as to get to work on time everyday because you follow your own plan - you know what time to get up, eat breakfast, and what roads to take to get to work on time. As you go on your way - as with any well thought out plan - you make some minor adjustments. Here’s a question for you; If you have such massive success with some of the trivial and some of the larger things that you plan - why wouldn’t you use that same approach in life? People tell me often "I really don't have a game plan - I guess I'll figure it out when I get to that point." How can you reach your goals and dreams if you don't know what path to follow? This is not in your best interests. I ask you “Why do so many people and maybe even yourself go through your only chance at this life without a plan? After all – it is your life and if you don't have a plan of action- things tend to not work out!!

If you want to succeed at meeting and exceeding your goals, you must have a Master plan. If you want to have a successful business - you have to have a business plan. If you want to have a successful life - get your master plan together - otherwise you're going to be busy reacting to prevailing conditions your entire life and that success you so desperately desire will stay just beyond your reach. Achieve your successes by simply taking the time to plan your path ahead.

To achieve massive success, learn to get a plan together in this very week. This is crucial to your success –plan as far ahead as 5 or 10 years. Remember, you can always take a more appealing side road to explore its possibilities. At the very least, you know you can turn around if you find a dead end and get back on the main route. Start your plan TODAY. Come up with a plan for your life and then learn what steps to take to make sure you achieve your goals and live the life you desire.

Planning leads to Empyreal Successes

Planning provides to you a clear vision of your future - you know exactly what needs be to done and how with persistence and dedication, it will all come to fruition. If you were to plan a art show opening you would go through all the minute details - right down to the least important detail to insure a great turnout and experience for your guests. When you prepare to play a game you go in with a game plan - your team knows what it has to do and has a plan that they believe will give them the victory. Teams that go in without a plan seem to flounder and be confused. When a plan is exacted you are planting a vision into your mind and also in your subconscious mind. Your subconscious mind believes what you tell it. It believes you have a plan and it will follow it out to the nth degree. Stay focused on your plan your mind will be sure to make a reality. By staying focused on plan or goal you invariably transmit vital information to your subconscious mind - and it then generates the opportunities for you to realize a successful outcome to your plan.

Key point: To succeed in life – develop your plan of action and do not lose focus - if you lose focus you veer from the plans path and thus you become lost again. Your intensive focus on your plan is what your subconscious hones into. This intense focus forces your mind to check every detail over and over again until it's correct. If it's not correct you'll then make the proper changes to get back on course.

The same approach can be used in your own life. Come up with a plan and stay focused, live it, breathe it everyday. Learn to stay focused on your plan because by doing so you constantly send the right messages to your subconscious mind – in the end it allows you to achieve your personal successes. By doing this you will also create great opportunities in your life. Learn how to follow up on those opportunities by relying on your intuition and your subconscious minds sharp insight.

Begin Planning TODAY!

Think it’s too much to begin planning your life? It is easier than you realize. The first step is to think about what you want your life to look like if you could have it all, your ideal life. Think big; know that it’s all there for the asking. Think abundance. Set goals on what you want your life to look like a year from now, two years, five years and ten years from today. It may seem like a long way from where you are now–remember life has a way of sneaking up on you. Don’t be too concerned as to where you are now - we're only concerned about how to get you to your ideal life.

Let’s begin- you have a beacon to steer towards - an idea of what your perfect life would look like. Next let’s start looking at how we are to arrive at our destination. Think about what steps you now have to take now to get the things you wanted like maybe a beautiful home, exotic car, a better relationship with your spouse, loving fulfilling relationships, awesome health, or whatever you decided you want. For example: If you said you wanted a beautiful home - what do you have to do now to put that much closer to realizing your dream? Does it mean changing your spending or savings habits? Selling your present house and cashing out that old mortgage? Do some deep thinking - and come up with the answers you need to precede, take action! You have at this very moment everything you need to realize your goals. Just believe, have faith and follow your overall plan. Now start working on the specifics - just like you would if you were planning that perfect party or an event in the future. In this instance-the event is your ideal life! Make it your priority!

Next - remain focused. Look over your plan and start moving towards the accomplishment of that plan. This is very important, don’t get distracted, stay focused. Your mind may try to put up a fight. It is out of its comfort zone. Many excuses may begin to pop-up in your head such as; I’m tired, I don’t feel comfortable with this or I can do it tomorrow. This is quite common problem- it's based on your mind expanding it’s limitations and that it doesn't want to change the status quo, it’s too uncomfortable. Well to grow, you have to get out and do things that make you grow and expand your horizons. In order to get your mind to change you need to feed it. It is imperative you learn how to plan and entice your mind to focus on what you really desire while relaying the correct messages to your subconscious mind. By doing this you remain focused and attract new opportunities that help you to exceed your goals and live your biggest dreams. This point of view is crucial to your overall success because if you don't believe you can succeed then you won’t. Always keep in mind, whatever you can conceive and believe, you can achieve!

Plan and Prepare

Now that all the basics of your plan are in place - prepare to feel empowered-you are now ready to achieve your goals. Start living from your goals. Act as if you are already a Millionaire, if that is what you want. I'm not advocating you should go out and buy everything you want on your goal list- but mentally think and believe you have already attained your goals. Do this everyday and watch some very real changes occur in your life. Remain focused; persistence is another key to success. Keep your conscious and subconscious mind working for you and you'll achieve your goals in record time. Believe it, Live it, Be it!

All things are ready, if our minds be so.
William Shakespeare

Confidence and courage come through preparation and practice.
Unknown Author

You are what you think. You are what you go for. You are what you do!
Bob Richards

How many times have we heard these familiar words? Ready, willing and able. Plenty, I’m sure. But what exactly does "being ready, willing and able" really mean? Simply stated, you can accomplish anything you want in life when, not if, you are ready, willing and able to do so.

Every aspect of this ready, willing and able equation are necessary if you’re going to realize your dreams in this life. The first part of the conundrum is the "ready" piece. Can any of us honestly say to ourselves that we are thoroughly prepared to take the benefit of the plenteous opportunities that open up to us each and every day of our lives? If you are not harvesting the benefits of total preparation at this very moment, then you are obviously not ready.

Question, if you are not ready right now, when will you be? It is significantly important that each of us to get ready to do whatever it takes by preparing ourselves mentally, physically and emotionally to do our best and be our best right now.

Even after you have made yourself ready to go, you still must be "willing" to make it happen. You must be willing to do whatever it takes to get where you want to go. Do yourself a huge favor; do not commit to be willing unless you are really ready to back it up with plenty of action right now. When there's a white hot zeal burning inside you to do whatever you know it takes, whenever you have to ... then and only then will you have the necessary ingredient to truly taste success. Giving anything less will not get the job done.

Lastly, you must be "able" to do whatever it takes, whenever it is needed to reach your desired outcome. You must be up to the task when it comes to turning your dreams into reality. When the chips are down will you be ready to give it all you have to realize your ideal life? At that monumental moment of truth, then and only then will you find out what you are made of and whether you are really up to the challenge. I believe you will be!

Three little words with the power to change your life; Ready, willing and able. Do not diminish your chance at success use these three critical components to reach the heights you long for. When the winner inside you has all three working in perfect synchronicity, there is no limit on how far you will go, how much success you will realize and how much you will accomplish in lifetime.

The life you've longed to live is ready ... when you are. Take control of your destiny and live to your highest expectations!

Setting a goal is not the main thing. It is deciding how you will go about achieving it and staying with that plan.

Richard C. Cushing
“Always plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark.”

Remember this famous saying, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail?” I’m sure you do. So why is it only a few of us have a master plan for our own lives — a plan of action that not only outlines where we intend to go, but also includes a road map on how we’re going to get there too?

Most of us dedicate more of our time to planning our weekends and our vacations than we do to planning the lives we live. Amazingly, we by and large put far more energy into this exercise to boot! This is not necessarily wrong, it is a dream of yours and you should fulfill it. The real question is why do we often carefully, even to the minutest detail, plan out our vacations months in advance while giving the most important aspect of our lives — the realization of our grandest dreams and aspirations —only a quick how do you do?

“All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.”
Earl Nightingale

In general when it comes to planning our futures, we more than often fail to see the forest for the trees. We see our down time and even our weekends as something extra special, a break from our day-to-day grind. Due to our outlook we view these special occasions in a different light, as a lot of fun and excitement in the making, in doing so we take a great deal of pleasure in planning these momentous moments.

On the other hand, we far too often see our day-to-day chores as the same worn out recording — second verse, same as the first. The belief that we usually feel that there’s nothing extra-special about another day at work; we go through the motions just praying to get through the monotony. We should make the most of each moment. Why would you drift off into a daydream and imagine about an ideal life we long to live, never once believing that today can be the day that our dreams start coming true. What we really need is a compass, our own game plan for winning!

While establishing goals and setting a timetable for their attainment can be a awesome beginning to something really tremendous, it’s the sticking with the plan through ups and downs that separates the winners from the runner-ups. Not only do you have to set the parameters you want to achieve, you must combine an undying ‘I can do it’ attitude with a relentless determination to see them through to their executions. That is not always an easy task. But, you have to have faith in your abilities, trust yourself!

Matter-of-factly, working your plan can sometimes be a very testing experience. I can’t recall anybody saying that it would be easy to be on top of the world, did we? It is one thing to see yourself living out your dreams; it’s quite another to get started bringing them to life. By putting a game plan together and then finishing the plan, without the slightest thought of quitting or giving up ever being allowed to creep into your mind, you will literally move mountains. Norman Vincent Peale summed up it best when he said, “Plan your work for today and every day, then work your plan.” Working, really working, your plan of success is your key to success.

“Reduce your plan to writing. The moment you complete this, you will have definitely given concrete form to the intangible desire.”
Napoleon Hill

There is absolutely no doubt that you need to put together your game plan for living with all the passion and zest for life you would put into planning a month long vacation, possibly more. More to the point, you need to give POWER & ENERGY to your plan by writing it down. You heard it; you need to put your plan in writing, defining even the smallest detail.

By capturing all of the desire and energy you feel when you dream yourself living the life you desire on paper; you then change this energy into action that will bring these dreams to life for you. Excitement & Belief=Results.

In conclusion, don’t you yourself the disservice of waiting around for that so-called perfect plan to come along before you get started making awesome things happen in your life. You can do it now. It is your time to excel, right now! Get with the plan and get moving today, not tomorrow, but today. Use your plan that you have and tweak it as you go up the ladder of success. You’ll be amazed that once you put your plan into action, your life will start moving in the direction you choose.

Lasting Thought: Plan on having your ideal life today—then make all your dreams come true.

Planning and practice is a “Blueprint” for your successes. You will experience all you desire by having your game plan already established. Practice being a WINNER and BELIEVER in yourself. You can accomplish anything you desire. Follow your blueprint and see your house of prosperity come to life for you!

To your Abundant Success!

Step 2: “Build the Foundation”- BE MOTIVATED TO LEARN

2005-10-15T10:11:00.000-04:00

Welcome Back!
This is the next step in your adventure to success...

This is part two of our Six-part course titled:
Build the Foundation 1st!

Keep the Positive Thoughts going!
By reading on with us you have taken the first step towards unbelievable financial and personal success.

Let's continue the journey with
Step 2 of Build the Foundation 1st!

· Step 2: "Build the Foundation"-BE MOTIVATED TO LEARN

There are many ways we learn new materials, I will touch on the ones that have proven to be sure-fire winners.

Natural born learners and others need to be motivated to learn the processes of success. You are all driven by different reasons to "be the best", "reach the top of mountain" or be an unqualified success. I am not here to endorse any one of these, but to help you pull from deep inside your desire to just be your very best.

Let's begin by discussing the three different approaches to learning. Task orientated, ego-orientated and those that focused on work avoidance.

Those of you who are task oriented, whose goal is learning for its own sake, are more likely to value and use deep-processing strategies; for example, to try to integrate new information with what you already know.

Individuals who are ego oriented, whose goal is primarily to demonstrate that they perform better than others, are more likely to value and use surface-level strategies, for example, to memorize new formulas just before a test.

Others out there who are focused on work avoidance are not likely to value or use either deep-processing or surface-level strategies.

Although most people believe that deep-processing strategies are more effective than surface-level strategies, they are not likely to use the former unless they value learning for its own sake and are interested in doing their best regardless of the performance of others.

Outside influences play a major role over individual's reasons for learning, it is important to understand "the potential effects of these reasons on your learning behaviors." I suggest that everyone should be encouraged to learn for the sake of learning; that is, to learn for understanding and meaningfulness, and to not place such great importance on competition and recognition in the business and personal arenas. This process of learning for understanding will be more beneficial for as you climb the ladder of success since you will be UNDERSTANDING what you have learned, not just learning about the subject to "hold your own" in a crowd.
Natural learning is based on curiosity and projects where participants share knowledge to reach a goal. Knowledge that is useful for a project is customized to the project needs and personality of the participants. Knowledge is gained by tapping information sources through research, trial and error, networking, and intuitive forces. The ability to tap these resources and make sound judgments is the key to achieving your desired goal. As one goal is achieved, another is established. Each goal requires new knowledge and skills, and this is achieved through the ability to acquire knowledge from a variety of sources.

Learning can be accomplished in several other ways too, such as learning through repetition, observation and last but not least motivation.

Repetition Builds Recognition
Ever wonder to yourself why McDonald's and McDonald's brand names seem to be everywhere you turn? The answer is very simple; this is a tired and true method of advertising called Repetition. The more times you see a product advertisement, the more an association is built in you and it becomes ingrained into your subconscious mind. That is why you reach for the Coke "quenching your thirst" with Coke due to the massive repetitions your mind has been subjected to on a daily, monthly and yearly basis. This same method can be used for learning too. Rote learning has been a staple in the learning field from the beginning of time. Constant studying of the same information over and over seeps that knowledge deep inside your mind so that when it is needed it is automatically available for your use. The more repetitions you see of information the more impressions are burned into your subconscious mind. If you desire to learn about great Motivational passages, study and learn them over and over again until they become second nature to you.

Use observation as a tool for learning
Learning from other people's experience can help you achieve more in your life even faster by cutting your life's learning curve in half and also sparing you a lot of unnecessary heartache and self-doubt. I am sure you heard some of the most successful people in your line of business say, "I wouldn't be here today, if it wasn't for the people who had gone before me?" Now you ask yourself, do you really think you have to repeat the mistakes that others have made in order to succeed? Absolutely no, that's unnecessary. But society as a whole would have you believe it's the best way to learn. I believe if you're going to make a mistake, try to make it something new. You do not have to reinvent the wheel every time. Follow in the footsteps of those that went before and save the time and energy to improve the process!

Motivation is integral part of learning

The more you are aware of your thinking processes as you learn, the more you can control such matters as goals, dispositions, and attention. Self-awareness promotes self-regulation. If you are aware of how committed (or uncommitted) you are to reaching goals, of how strong (or weak) your disposition is to persist, and of how focused (or wandering) is your attention to a thinking or writing task, you can regulate your commitment, disposition, and attention to that subject.

"Leadership is constantly changing, and survivors learn to change with it."

"Yesterday, natural resources defined power. Today, knowledge is power. Yesterday, leaders commanded and controlled. Today, leaders empower and coach. Yesterday, leaders were warriors. Today, they are facilitators. Yesterday, managers directed. Today, managers delegate. Yesterday, supervisors flourished. Today, supervisors vanish."
-- Dr. Denis Waitley, The Toastmaster, December 2000.

"Give a person an idea, and you enrich their life. Teach a person how to learn, and they can enrich their own lives" - Author Unknown

When you base your goals on personal achievement with a burning desire, self-discipline and persistence, you "it is the pursuit of achievement first" elements that cost nothing to acquire. The money will come with knowledge and determination to succeed. You must first strive toward achievement with resources available to you at that time, learning to move ahead with what you have, however limited that may be. In other words, just do it and believe yourself!

To start, you need a vision of the person you want to be.

Seven Successful Rules of Motivation:

1. Set a major goal, but follow a path. Each path has several offshoots that go in many directions. When you learn to succeed at these offshoots, you will be motivated to challenge your grand goals.

2. Always finish what you start. A half finished project is of no use to you. Quitting is a habit. Break the habit and see your successes multiply. Develop the habit of finishing your self-motivated projects. The results will astound and inspire you to achieve your desired outcomes.

3. Socialize with others on the same path. Mutual support is an enormous motivating factor. You will develop the attitudes of your closest companions. If they are lost, you to will be. If they are on course, you will be too. To be a Millionaire, you must associate with people who have Millionaire attitudes!

4. Learn how to learn. Dependency on others for knowledge is a slow time consuming processes. You have the ability to learn without tutors. In fact, when you learn the art of self-education you will find, if not create, opportunities to live successes beyond our wildest dreams. Belief in yourself is one of the strongest of all motivators.

5. Tune in to your natural abilities with an interest that motivates you. Natural abilities create motivation, motivation creates persistence and persistence gets your goals accomplished. Whatever you can conceive and believe you can achieve!

6. Ramp-up your knowledge of subjects that inspire you. The more you know about a subject, the more you want to learn about it. A self-propelled upward spiral develops with success at the Apex.

7. Don't be afraid to take risks. Failure and bouncing back after a disappointment even stronger than before are elements of motivation. Failure is a learning tool. No one has ever succeeded at anything worthwhile without some sort of failure. If you learn from your failures, they are not failures at all but a true learning experience.

Learning to Make Quality Decisions
You need to find the correct path. With each step you take, you will learn how to complete small projects and tasks. At the end, you will collect all the small accomplishments and combine them into a successful achievement. You will meet and exceed your goals.

By knowing what path you are on, you can make quality decisions that will guide you to your ultimate positive outcome. Others with more knowledge on a subject can help you if they know what your goal is. Be clear about your goals, write them down and redefine them as you progress on the path of success. Always bearing in mind that you can take divergent paths and still realize the same outcome you desire. Be flexible but vigilant to stay the course.

You need to learn how to prevent potential problems. Problems are caused by a lack of knowledge, not bad luck. Problems destroy dreams, not money. Keep your problems to a minimum by studying your goals outcomes everyday. Read them aloud twice a day, once in the morning and before retiring for the evening. Remember, your subconscious mind does not sleep so always feed it clear, clean positive thoughts before going to bed. In this way your mind will continue to work out the details for your ultimate victories and successful outcomes of your dreams.

As a leader in your field, you will need to know how to bring the best out of people. No one knows what their true potential is until an opportunity presents itself. Be a positive influence, inspire other people to reach their dreams and goals. As the great motivator, Zig Ziglar, once said, help enough people get what they want out of life and you too will get what you want.

The rewards of success are money, power, and influence. These rewards are well deserved after learning to believe and succeed. However, their uses are not to be taken lightly. Misuse of any of the three will lead to a heavy burden to bear. Use them wisely for the benefit of everyone. In the hands of a true leader many good outcomes can be realized personally and professionally.

The lie that has had the greatest impact on my life, was the lie that "Experience is the best teacher." You're probably saying to yourself, "What are you talking about, experience is the best teacher." Well I beg to differ, and I hope this gives you some food for thought.

First of all, experience is not the "best" teacher. It's a "good" teacher, but not the best. A better teacher is "other people's experiences." I call this the "Been There, Done That" Principle. As a matter of fact, I believe that you should only learn from your own experiences if it's the "only" teacher available. But most of the time, it's not.

Your "perfect property" is waiting for you. Stay Motivated to learn all you can about your chosen goal and reach for the Top, never, never quit! It's all their for the asking!

Live the Principle of Abundance; there is enough for everyone and you deserve your share!

Until next time Best Wishes and Continued Success!

Let’s begin our journey with Step 1 of Build the Foundation 1st!
· Step 1: “Survey your perfect piece of property”-DREAM

Dreams are defined in Webster’s as: a cherished desire ambition, aspiration. No truer words have been spoken. Dreams are the stepping-stones to meeting your goals and ambitions. Dreams often contain significant information for us, putting light on what has happened in our lives, or what is happening and providing insights about our future. You must search out your property (dreams) before making a purchase. Set your sights high, believe in yourself and your right to have the perfect property for yourself.

Dreams provide the nourishment for your “plants” (thoughts) to sprout forth and multiply into an endless field of happiness and truth. Take care to plant the best seeds you have. Feed them pure, clean thoughts and keep your field “weed-free” (negative thoughts). With space to grow, you will yield an amazing crop and feed yourself for the rest of your life.

To Achieve the really big goals and dreams we want always involves breaking it down into do-able little steps. Inside each of us is the burning desire to fulfill our “destiny”.

Notable Quotables:
Hold fast to dreams for if dreams die, life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.
- Langston Hughes

Let us learn to dream, gentlemen, and then we may perhaps find the truth.
- Freidrich Kekule

Don't dream it - be it
- Richard O'Brien, Rocky Horror Show

The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
- Eleanor Roosevelt

Dream lofty dreams, and as you dream, so shall you become.
-James Allen

You have all the reason in the world to achieve your grandest dreams. Imagination plus innovation equals realization.
-Denis Waitley

“The first step is to fill your life with a positive faith that will help you through anything. The second is to begin where you are.”
Norman Vincent Peale

As we travel through the journey of life, we all sooner or later reach a intersection where we must decide which course of action we will take on: whether we will boldly cut a pathway to a whole new level of achievement and happiness, taking a chance on making our lives everything we have dreamed they could be or instead simply choosing to stay right where we are right now. In these monumental moments, when we stare our destinies right square in the eye, will we choose to make all of those treasured dreams we hold close to our hearts come true or will we allow them to woefully slip from our grasp?

Richard M. DeVos couldn’t have stated it any better when he said, “The only thing that stands between a man and what he wants from life is often merely the will to try it and the faith to believe that it is possible.”

Then there are those others; the select few bold enough to relentlessly pursue their dreams. These people consistently see opportunities where others see barriers and constantly perceive the potential where nearly everyone else can only observe life’s obstacles. These daring adventurers choose a much more aggressive line of attack than their ‘I’m OK right here’ contemporaries; looking for ways to attempt the impossible, to make their grandest dreams come true right before their very eyes. As a result, these visionaries never run out of promising possibilities to go after.

“Our aspirations are our possibilities.”
Robert Browning

Everyday look at a world teeming with countless possibilities, with each day brings more excitement and fulfillment than the day before. Live it, experience it and truly relish in the fascination of your hopes, dreams and desires. It is all out there for the asking. Ask, ask and ask again. Unbelievable opportunities come your way with incredible results.

“Our thoughts and imagination are the only real limits to our possibilities.”
Orison Swett Marden

Dale Carnegie once said, “We all have possibilities we don't know about. We can do things we don't even dream we can do.” Regardless of whether we realize it or not, each of us holds within ourselves a mighty depository of power and strength capable of taking us places we can barely imagine ourselves going. Wondrous places, breath taking places; places that our dreams are made of. The world is abundant. There is enough for everyone. You can choose to dip into it with a shovel or a dump truck. Either way, abundance abounds, take your share there is plenty for everyone.

“Every man believes that he has greater possibilities.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson

Brian Tracy had this to say about our possibilities: “The potential of the average person is like a huge ocean unsailed, a new continent unexplored, a world of possibilities waiting to be released and channeled toward some great good.” You need to seek out those oceans of plentitude that you long to navigate. You need to explore that uncharted territory that calls out for discovery, stepping into the unknown with a sense of purpose and direction. And more than anything else, you really need to focus everything you’ve got into being — and doing — the best that you can.

Your perfect property is waiting for you.

Dream your dreams and Believe in yourself and your awesome abilities!

"Good timber does not grow with ease, the stronger the wind the stronger the trees.”

2005-10-08T09:51:00.000-04:00

Have strength against the sea of trouble it won't last long. Have strength against all adversity it won't last long. Have strength in yourself it will last a lifetime!

We are tested on a daily basis in our lives, how we react to it makes us who we are. You can overcome any trouble by believing in yourself and your principles. Once you abandon your principles the walls of strength are on their way down. Your principles are the mortar that holds your self-esteem, self-confidence, belief in yourself and your courage to face all obstacles together. Be vigilant as to any "cracks" forming. Inspect your wall of principles daily to insure its strength against any decay from self-doubt. Believe and it will be so.
In times of trouble it is not a time to challenge your principles, it is a time to reinforce them even more against the sea of trouble you may be experiencing. Stay strong, you can weather any storm that comes your way because you are unwavering and built to stand for many years to come.
As a side note-I have included a few links for you to look at in the right hand column that are awesome. If you love to eat at nice restaurants and want to save 50-60% off the meal check out Restaurant.com link. They are gift certificates that you can use or give away and restaurants are located throughout the USA. We have used them in Atlanta, New York City, Tampa, Orlando, Phoenix, Tucson, Buffalo, Ohio, New Orleans, and Destin, Florida to name a few!

A Matter of Mastery

2005-10-05T09:11:00.000-04:00

Tomorrow comes to us under any circumstances we choose. We can choose to believe in goodness and happiness or in despair. I choose the former in that I love life! I love the idea of challenging for the top in myself because there is no way to excel without exerting a greater power than the opposing forces wield. That is what triumph is-overcoming rather than being overcome. Success or Failure is simply a matter of mastery-we conquer or get conquered!

No matter the test, man first struggles within himself where he first wins or losses. It’s all up to you. Do you succumb to defeat or do you rise above the circumstances and lead your victory charge unto your enemies. Victory is sweeter with the forces of right and belief behind you. Faith in yourself and your ideals will take you all the way to the top.

Yes the price of greatness is a GREAT responsibility! People look to greatness for answers so inherently you are thrown into the spotlight through your wisdom and knowledge. This does not have to be an albatross but more like a medallion of greatness that can be worn by you. For, in your greatness, a generation can be changed!

We are all destined for greatness; it’s in the cards. Find your medium and announce to those seeking the truth and honesty that you are here if this is what they desire. Your responsibility will be to give them your knowledge so that they may too experience the feeling of greatness and belief in themselves that you believe and live by.

Goodness is part of your life. Make positive changes so that you can attain all you desire. It’s all in your head; how you think, act and feel, create the perfect reality. To change your path, you have to change the pre-wired synapses that are already built. Through positive “self-talk” and positive actions you will become the person you desire to be. It's all there if you just BELIEVE and have FAITH in yourself and the world around you!

"How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would have achieved success?” Elbert Hubbard

2005-10-03T11:28:00.000-04:00

The world is on the fast track but all good things take time to accomplish…seems like a paradox doesn’t it? It all comes down to you as a person. Do you have the patience to see your life’s journey through; do you stay the line when it looks a little easier “over there”? Persistence, dedication, confidence and determination are key elements in the “periodical table of success.” Having a good chemistry with yourself will lead you to discoveries that once seemed daunting and insurmountable. Believe in yourself, go the extra mile…the results will astound you.

Inside every one of us is a winner. What separates the haves from the have-nots is the BELIEF that you ARE making the right decisions in your life. You ARE focused on attaining your ideal life. You ARE having FAITH in the world and most of all yourself. Everything is abundant; money, happiness, and success to name a few. Your job is to BELIEVE you are already in control of any one of them. They are already out there just waiting for you take command and keep moving in your direction of choice towards your ideal life.

“Success is in the mind of the beholder”

2005-09-30T10:56:00.000-04:00

The mind is an amazing thing. It can lead you down the path of prosperity or the path of ruin just by the input that it receives. By putting good, clean, pure positive thoughts into it’s gas tank, it will run efficiently and give you the most “mileage” for the fuel. It’s all in your belief system and the dedication you have to reach your “destination’. Believe, have faith, stay strong to your truths and listen to your intuition and your trip will be a fruitful one, one that will bear happiness and the ideal life you desire. It’s all up to you. Only you are you and your perception of the world goes a long way in where you end up. For as you know, the world is ABUNDANT and everything you want is yours for the asking if you ask for good and positive in your life.

2005-09-28T10:39:00.000-04:00

“Conscious Creation is the act of consciously applying the laws of the Universe in order to CREATE our ideal life.” Anisa Avens

It’s another day to create your reality. Life is going to move on with you or without you. You must decide at this very moment that you will apply the laws of the universe in your behalf so that it can help you create the ideal life you desire. No time to waste, but to put the plan into action and have some patience and belief in its outcome for your good.

It’s the hardest thing to do when you feel that you’re stuck in second gear, to believe and have faith. But, as you know it's only temporary and that soon you will be rolling down the highway at top speed; speeding to our sanctuary of love and happiness. Believe, you must always believe in your ideal future.

Abundance is yours for the asking!

2005-09-26T12:12:00.000-04:00

Good day!
Allow me to introduce myself, I am John Paul Dumas, Sr. I am an author and a artist in addition to my other real passion of "moving people" to a higher sense of self-worth and happiness. I have been called, "Mr. Motivation" and the "Can Do Guy". Through an unshakeable belief in yourself anything can be accomplished, no matter the situation. By using simple laws that exist in nature you can draw to yourself the positive powers of the universe. The "Law of Attraction" is one example. It simply states that "what you put out there, is returned to you tenfold". One of my personal sayings is "Believe like you have never believed before". A beginning point to put you on your way to your ideal life.
Today I launch a blog pertaining to getting it all in your life. The world is an abundant place. A beginning on a path that will reawaken your life and your journey to fulfillment.
In the coming days I will be exploring the factors that make life truly the outcome you desire from Belief to Action.
In upcoming blogs, I will reveal to you shortcuts to wealth, health and true abundance in your life. We believe in the goodness of the world, humane treatment to animals and the growth of people. Our soon to be company, AMJO will live by our credo; "The Caring Company".
My "Inspirational Millionaire" organization will show you through creative products just how you can have the life you deserve! You will be privy to a six-part newsletter called "Build your Foundation 1st" chalked full of information that you can glean and use in your own life to build a solid foundation of belief, faith and direction in your life too.
Later blogs will include excerpts from my books on loving relationships (as I have with my incredible wife, Amy) the two books are"Notes in the Key of Love" and "A Man for All Seasons". A children's book called "The Gum Tree" for ages 3-5 will be available for purchase in the near future. A great story about a little boy who listened to his "papa" and learned a valuable lesson. It was completely illustrated by myself and comes in hardcover format or soft cover.
Lastly, original artwork from my wife will be featured, they will be available for purchase through a limited number of Prints.
I look forward to helping you to become the person you have always wanted to be. Together we can do it!
