The Secret to "YOUR" Success Is..........

THE SECRET TO "YOUR" SUCCESS IS.......

"A POSITIVE ATTITUDE"

There is definitely no other greater determinant on how you will succeed in your family, job, career, and profession than having a Positive Attitude.  Positive Attitude is the foundation on how you should embrace life.  It should be the feeling you get as soon as you wake up in the morning.  It should be the feeling you get when you drive to work.  It should be the feeling you have when you talk to your customers. Definitely the feeling your in when you talk with your boss. 

A Positive (feeling) Attitude, therefore, is the foundation for your everyday success.  

Now, does Positive Attitude occurs naturally?  NO!! 

Believe it or not, Positive Attitude requires a lot of mental, conscious work in order for it to happen. Here are a few examples on what I mean on this. 

1. As you drive by looking for a gas station, you see the price of a gallon of gas is at $4.40 for regular unleaded. what is your reaction?

2. Your child just received a "D" on his test exam, what do you say?

3. Your Best Friend is telling you about a "juicy" gossip about another close friend what do you do?

4. Your Boss decides to put you under performance evaluation, how do you act?

Now in any of these examples you decide to think, act, or respond "Negatively" Don't worry, most do.  As people we are conditioned to withdraw from a bad situation.  We are also conditioned to listen to negative things rather than positive ones.  Do you watch or listen to the News?  Guess what, local and international news headlines are mostly negative ones. Imagine a local and International News headline starting off with a fireman saving a kitten stuck on a tree. hmmm.. Or a local school child winning the spelling Bee.  hmmm.. again.  Not so much of an attention catcher is it?

Since a Positive Attitude require mental work, follow a few of these suggestion:

1.  "Stop blaming others for your situation." Remember, a victim never prosper.   I have not met a successful victim in all my years.  The Economy, the boss doesn't pay well, the wife or husband hates what I do, etc.  Get my drift? 

2.  "Be a solution provider, not a solution taker."  If you teach your mind to solve problems  that others deem as unsolvable, you will receive success quicker than most people.

3. "Think first, Before giving suggestions or advise."  The truth of the matter is, not everyone will welcome an advice.  Listen and only give advice when asked for.

4. "Avoid Negative People." You know who they are.  These are the people who put an emotional gas to your emotional negative inner fire.  These people are dream killers, relationship killers, and emotional drainers.  Stay away at all cost.

5. "Understand that your choices has always been yours."  You have the power to change your situation.  The only one stopping you is "YOU."

6. "Attend Seminars, Read Books, Listen to Cd's on Positive Attitude."   There are so many "Guru's" on positive thinking.  What comes to Mind is Dale Carnegie, Napoleon Hill, Zig Ziglar, John Maxwell, Earl Nightingale, Henry Ford.  Know who you want to follow and start reading.

7. "Check your language thoughts." 

• Is the Glass half-full or half empty? 
• "I'm Glad the price of Gas is only $4.40 not $6.40."
• "I'm Happy My Boss challenges me on a performance evaluation, Now I can show him how great of an employee I'm really am!"

8. "Thank and Count your God-Given Blessings Each Day."  YES! Spiritual strength provide humbleness to all the positive gifts we receive. 

So, there you go. Follow some of these advice and you are on your way to reeling in a positive attitude mindset.  With enough practice, you will see the world in a totally different way. Problems that used to bother you will no longer do.  You will be more aware of negative talks and chatters; thus giving yourself a choice to leave the negative environment.  You will also see a difference on how your co-workers and bosses treat you.  Many will be amazed in your transformation; thus attracting more positive oriented friends while scaring away the negative ones. Start positive thinking now and create a whole new world for yourself and for your success.

6 Good Reasons why you need to get paid everyday like the Rich!!

Have you ever questioned yourself why you need to live within your means?  Have most financial planner and institution talked about how you should live with the word "budget" in mind?   Are you being paid hourly or a salary that you receive every 2 weeks or monthly?  Than you are definitely not alone.

Most people in the U.S. work as an employee or as self-employed individual.  Whether government entities, huge corporations, private businesses, or the service sectors, we almost have to wait days, weeks, and months in order for us to get paid.  The word "Budget" thus become an important part of our vocabulary as we go through our everyday life.  Now imagine your world where you are receiving a check, bank credit, or cash money at the end of the day, everyday, that is equivalent to what you would normally receive with a paycheck at the end of 2 weeks.  Also imagine if this income everyday that you receive grows, and grows as time passes on.  Now you may ask youself, is this really possible?

I would say to you "Yes" this is possible, but it generally would not involve a person being an employee, salary, or self-employed.  Now there are exceptions such as rich salaried positions such as a CEO of a multi-million dollar company, or highly paid athletes such as Lebron James. You get my drift right?  Most middle-class Americans will probably not fall into this highly paid positions.  Getting back, how do we attain getting paid everyday like the rich does? 

By starting your own business.  

You may ask, What if I fail?  Isn't starting a business risky and expensive?  I would say to this it depends.  A start-up lawn cutting business require more time than money and you may get paid everyday on it.  You may start-up your own franchise business which requires royalties, initial buy-in, and monthly dues that tend to be quite expensive.  So, It does vary depending on the startup business you have your eye on. You may also join a direct business models such as MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) and receive business skills and guidance from members. This form of business require buy-in memberships with product to sell thereafter. Again, whatever you decide on, decide on something atleast.

Why do we need to start our own business?  I'll give you a few 5 good reasons.

1. Time: After a few short years growing your own business, you can buy your own time to spend with whatever you decide to spend it on.
2. Control:  Boss, Managers, Supervisors will be a thing of the past. Sorry, IRS is still on your back even as business owners. However, many tax benefits are enjoyed by the rich not seen by middle class americans.
3. Money: Getting paid everyday beats getting paid once a week, every 2 weeks, monthly, or even yearly.
4. Inflation: As Inflation keeps going up, prices of goods follow. With today's economy, salary hourly wages, and comissions keeps going down, thust inflation affects our dollar spending capacity.
5. No more "budget":  What!! is this real!! No sorry, the rich still do have a budget in mind. however, I would assume it looks much different from yours and mine.  Their budget possibly does not necessarily deal with the everyday "house budget" rather they deal with business operational, asset, liability budget.  So in essence, yeah!.. no more focus on "house budget."
6. Experience: Once you taste earning income everyday, you will never go back to your old job and career no matter what the setback you will experience with owning your own business. 

Again, being in business is not for everyone.  However, for those who does try to swim in this vast and competitive world, the payout in the long run is worth the risk. I believe not owning or controlling your own destiny is alot riskier than any business you may have a chance to develop for yourself.  So, try one out, your future may depend on it.
