Are You Happy To Lead A Mediocre Life Just Because Others Do?

By Pat Campbell When we read historical novels, we may laugh at the pointless lives that the gentry of that period led. The well to do who lived centuries ago spent their lives in idle pursuits totally oblivious (in most cases) to the wretchedness of the poor who spent all their waking hours working in return for meagre sustenance. And they were so overly concerned with living their lives according to regimented protocol; it just wasn’t "the done thing" to do things differently than the way the neighbours did things. The lives of the poor were just as pointless because they failed to realise that they could improve themselves if only they tried. The few who did succeed in breaking free of poverty were generally ostracised by their families because they dared to do things differently. But are we any different today? Have we really learnt anything at all? The activities of the 21st century are vastly different from those of previous times but many are just as pointless. And today, in this current advanced era, people on the whole are still far too concerned with what their family, friends and neighbours think. Very few people are willing to change. Is your life perfect? If it is then there is no need to change anything. But I have never yet met anyone with a perfect life, have you? Some people have a career they love but their family life suffers. Some people have very good relationships with their families and friends but their health and fitness are not very good. And some people have a totally stuffed up life in nearly all areas. Even if we have some things right, there are always areas in which we can improve ourselves, we shouldn't just get to a certain age and stop. Life is all about learning; it isn’t something reserved for the young. People will say, "Oh I couldn’t do it that way because everyone I know does it this way!" But are all those people you know getting perfect results! Very unlikely! So why keep doing things a certain way, with mediocre results, just because everyone else does it that way? Isn't it time to make a change and do things your own way? Maybe, just maybe, you will see vast improvements in your life. And if you stuff up or don't get it quite right the first time, don't give up. Just keep on trying things out until you find what really works for you. Don’t be bothered by those who try to deter you. Your true friends will support you and the opinion of the rest of them doesn't matter! One thing to remember - if others object to what you are doing or becoming, it is because it is a reflection of something in their own lives that they need to deal with. When they see you becoming successful in some area of your life, they feel unsettled because they know that they should be trying to make improvements in their lives too and you are reminding them of that deficiency in themselves! So it is never about you, it is about them. The sad fact is that most people are quite prepared to plod along living a mediocre existence. They really cannot see that there are better possibilities for them if only they make an effort. But you can see the possibilities, so go and live your dreams! My aim is to help as many people as possible realise their full potential from both a human and spiritual perspective.

Four Steps to a Super Attitude

By: Brian Tracy Decide How to React It is not what happens to you that counts. It is how you react to what happens to you, especially when you have unexpected problems of any kind. In this newsletter, you learn powerful strategies you can use to keep yourself thinking and acting positively and creatively. Here are four things you can do to assure that your attitude is the very best it can be, under all circumstances. Focus On the Future First, whatever challenges you face, focus on the future rather than on the past. Instead of worrying about who did what and who is to blame, focus on where you want to be and what you want to do. Get a clear mental image of your ideal successful future, and then take whatever action you can to begin moving in that direction. Get your mind, your thoughts, and your mental images on the future. Think About the Solution Second, whenever you're faced with a difficulty, focus on the solution rather than on the problem. Think and talk about the ideal solution to the obstacle or setback, rather than wasting time rehashing and reflecting on the problem. Solutions are inherently positive, whereas problems are inherently negative. The instant that you begin thinking in terms of solutions, you become a positive and constructive human being. Look For the Good Third, assume that something good is hidden within each difficulty or challenge. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale, a major proponent of positive thinking, once said, "Whenever God wants to give us a gift, he wraps it up in a problem." The bigger the gift you have coming, the bigger the problem you will receive. But the wonderful thing is that if you look for the gift, you will always find it. Seek the Valuable Lesson Fourth, assume that whatever situation you are facing at the moment is exactly the right situation you need to ultimately be successful. This situation has been sent to you to help you learn something, to help you become better, to help you expand and grow. Decide to Be Positive A Positive Mental Attitude is indispensable to your success. You can be as positive as you want to be if you will simply think about the future, focus on the solution and look for the good. If you do what other successful people do, if you use your mind to exert mental control over the situation, you will be positive and cheerful most of the time. And you will reap the benefits enjoyed by all successful people. Action Exercises Here are three steps you can take immediately to put these ideas into action: First, become solution-oriented with every difficulty you face. Make a habit of looking for the answers to your questions, the solutions to your problems. Second, seek for the valuable lesson in every adversity. Make a list of every idea or insight you can gain from every setback or difficulty. Third, think on paper. Take some time to write out every detail of the problem, and then take the most logical next step to solve it.

The Foundation of Leadership

By: Brian Tracy The most important quality of leadership, the one quality for which you want to be known, is extraordinary performance, with the goal of achieving extraordinary results. These results then serve as an inspiration to others to perform at equally exceptional levels. People ascribe leadership to those men and women who they feel can most enable them to achieve important goals or objectives. Why People Respect You We develop great perceptions of those men and women we can count on to help us achieve what is important to us. Men and women who make great sales, or who establish admirable sales records, develop influence in the minds and hearts of their coworkers and superiors. They are spoken about in the most positive way. The Halo Effect Men and women who are responsible for companies or departments that achieve high levels of profitability also develop charisma. They develop what is called the "halo effect." They are perceived by others to be extraordinary men and women who are capable of great things. Their shortcomings are often overlooked, while their strong points are overemphasized. They become charismatic. The Source of Charisma Charisma actually comes from working on yourself. It comes from liking and accepting yourself unconditionally as you do and say the specific things that develop within you a powerful, charismatic personality.

Be Determined and Purposeful When you set clear goals and become determined and purposeful, backing those goals with unshakable self-confidence, you develop charisma. When you are enthusiastic and excited about what you are doing, when you are totally committed to achieving something worthwhile, you radiate charisma. When you take the time to study and become an expert at what you do, and then prepare thoroughly for any opportunity to use your knowledge, skill or experience, the perception that others have of you goes straight up. Accept Complete Responsibility When you take complete responsibility and accept ownership, without making excuses or blaming others, you experience a sense of control that leads to the personal power that is the foundation of charisma. When you look like a winner in every respect, when you have the kind of external image that others admire, you build your charisma. When you develop your character by setting high standards and then disciplining yourself to live consistent with the highest principles you know, you become the kind of person who is admired and respected everywhere. You become the kind of person who radiates charisma to others. Focus on Results Finally, when you concentrate your energies on achieving the results that you have been hired to accomplish, the results that others expect of you, you develop the reputation for performance and achievement that inevitably leads to the perception of charisma. You can develop the kind of charisma that opens doors for you by going to work on yourself, consistently and persistently, and becoming the kind of person everyone can admire and look up to. That's what charisma is all about. Action Exercises Here are two things you can do immediately to put these ideas into action. First, ask yourself every day, "What is the one thing that I and only I can do, that if done well, will make a real difference to my company?" Whatever your answer, go to work on that. Second, decide upon the most important results you can get for your company and make sure that you and everyone else is working on those results every hour of every day.

Tapping into the Science of Getting Rich

By Marisa Singhnarinaath Did you know that it is possible, in essence, to think your way rich? That there is a certain mindset shared by successful, wealthy people, and that understanding and using that mindset can help you bring riches into your life? It sounds a little farfetched, but in fact these ideas have been around since the early 1900s, when Wallace D. Wattles wrote the book "The Science of Getting Rich," which is still held up today as an example of mind science, or using the power of the mind to manifest what you want in life. Wattles wrote that success is not about living in a particular place, being from a certain background, or even having luck. Instead all successful people think in a certain way that allows goodness, success and money to come into their lives. The way he described this right way of thinking was that you must have a "clear and definite idea of what you want." He said "unformed longings and vague desires" would not bring you want you want, instead you must be really clear on exactly what you desire down to the last detail. It's not enough, he said, to want money or a new house or a new car. You have to want a million dollars, a three-story beach house on the Carolina coast with hardwood floors and stainless steel appliances, or a bright red Hummer with all the bells and whistles. He explained that using the science of getting rich or mental science to attract anything into your life is like sending a telegram (today we might say like sending an e-mail): you don't just send all the letters of the alphabet and hope that the recipient can decipher your message. In the same way you can't just ask for wealth, comfort or happiness from the great telegram receiver and expect to get exactly what you want. Instead you must give a detailed account of what it is you desire, whether that's by forming a mental picture, writing down what you want or even collecting pictures of the ideal home, car, relationship, or whatever else it is that you are looking for. Having a clear vision, though, is only part of the battle. You also have to have unwavering faith that the thing you desire most can be yours. Wattles wrote that you should be able to believe that the thing you want is already yours. You should be able to imagine yourself living in the house, driving the car or spending the money, vividly seeing that future life that you are building with the power of your intention. It takes some practice to have both that clear vision and unshakable faith, but once you learn the secrets you can literally have anything you want just by visualizing, asking and believing.

SCOGOSTOLOGY: The Dynamics And Philosophy Of Human Problems--By IKEY G-KHAN GALACTICCA

By IKEY GALACTICCA What Are Your Problems In Life? There are more than 6 billion human beings on Earth now. Some are rich. Some are not. Almost all have something in common: they all have problems. Human problems vary according to the gender, age, ethnicity, race, country, city and state. Some problems are existential. Others are created by human beings. What are your problems? Do you have a financial problem? Family problem? Love problem? Problem at your job? Problem with your friends? Problems at your business? Do you have problem with your in-laws? Do you have a racial problem? Personality problems? Anger problem? Medical problem? Are you depressed? Do you suffer from anxiety disorder? Are you lonely? Do you hate your parents? Do you hate your spouse? What exactly is a problem? A problem can be defined in many ways. When we encounter a situation, which is opposed to our ambition and desire, we can say we have a problem. When we are in a situation, which causes us to experience pain, or loss we can say we have a problem. Sometimes what is a problem to one person is not a problem to another person. A problem can be relative. When we have a problem we feel sad and frustrated and attempt to do anything we can to solve it. Understanding Problems What many people have in common is that when they have a problem, they are too sad and frustrated and anxious to solve it that they are unable to think and understand it. A problem understood is half solved. If you do not understand how a problem originated, it may be impossible to solve it. By understanding the origin of a problem and its nature, we can gain insight into it and that insight will bear the solution. Some problems may originate from the mistakes we have made or the mistake others close to us have made. Some problems may originate from our past actions, either in this life or the past ones, which we had forgotten about. Whatever we do in life, we create energy because life is energy. Even solid matter is energy. So whatever we do. We create energy and that energy is polarized either positively or negatively. Once created it continues to exist and move until it comes back to us. Energy cannot be destroyed. But it can be transformed from one form to another. So, in reality what we call “problems” is energy that does not favor us. This energy might have been created by us or by others but because it is opposed to our goals, ambitions, desires and wishes, it becomes an obstacle, and therefore a problem. When we transform this energy into a form to favor us, we say we have solved the problem. But in reality, no problem can be solved. Problems can only be transformed from a negative and unfavorable energy to a positive and favorable energy. For this reason, it is important that when we have a “problem” that we pause to study it to know its origin, its nature and gain insight about it. It is this insight, which will automatically help us to transform the “problem” into a “solution” (that is from one form of energy to another form) Origin of Human Problems In reality, positive and negative energy are one form of energy that are polar opposites of each other and compliment each other. So, in reality, there is no problem in Existence. What we call problems are "energy constructs" which do not favor us. Therefore problems can be solutions and solutions can become problems. When anything is taken to its extreme, it is transformed to its polar opposite. Therefore when you go to the extreme of a problem, it will automatically be transformed into a solution. And if you go to the extreme of any solution, you will create a problem. Every problem has its solution as a seed embed inside it. In addition, every solution has a problem in form of a seed embedded into it. A problem is a continuum of a solution and vice versa and there is no end in this continuum. That is why no problem can be solved. This is the irony of Existence. Extremities are the points at which energy transform from one form to another. In life, we have been improperly conditioned regarding our attitude to life. We are born with a mind and a body. We grow up in a family and then we are sent to a school to obtain education and to be socialized. Throughout our education and socialization, we are not educated about REALITY or EXISTENCE and our relationship to it. We do not know where we come from, why we are here, and where we are going and what will happen after we leave Earth. We have a mind and senses but nobody explains to us what is mind or senses and how to use them. We are like somebody who buys a car and try to drive it without learning how to drive and without having a map of the city. We have a body, which is our car and a mind, which is like our driver and the senses that are like a computer. In addition, we are inside the car and we do not know the driver or the car and we just sit inside and let the mind and the senses take us wherever they want. This is one of the reasons why we have problems in life. We do not know where we came from, why we are here and where we are going. We are not in charge of our lives. We are being driven about in life and have no choices and control of what we get or what we do or what we happens to us. This is why we suffer and are sad and frustrated.
