Live your Best Life


My friends,
If you value life, then do not squander time.
For that is what life is made of - Benjamin Franklin

As we enter a new Decade, I just wanted to share some 
of the principalsI gathered through the years as a scholar of life.
Just promise me this, after you’ve read this email, 
take your self seriouslyand just go out there and take action, 
follow through with your words andyou’ll see the universe 
unfolding your dreams before your eyes.
This leads me to the first principle I wish to share with you,
this is the crucial check point in your path.

You must know what it is that you truly want
We all think that we know what we want, but think about it.
We aren’t talking about that car or those pair of shoes that temporally
becomes the object of your desires and after the initial “honeymoon”
period has worn off turn into a mode of transport and those shoes
 become dust collectors? The moment is fleeting.
Make sure you know what you really want and just to be sure,
ask yourself why you want it and how your life would improve.
    
You must believe that you deserve it.
You are the only person in this whole world that is responsible for
you reach your full potential and achieve the things you want in life.
You must deem yourself worthy, otherwise you’re going nowhere.
You know you are capable of more than sitting in front of the hypnotic box.

As Napoleon Hill once said:
“There is a sure way to avoid criticism—be nothing and do
nothing. Get a job as a street sweeper and kill out ambition. The
remedy never fails.”

Take Action
Without this principle, 100% of all successful people would have failed.
The universe revolves around a single physical principle that is called
entropy, i.e. energy needs to be added to turn chaos into order.
It sounds deep, but all that it means is that you need to take action,
give your energy in order to bring about the things you want in your life.
The tried and true way to achieving or becoming anything you want
is taking action. If you can figure out a concrete goal to achieve,
consistently take the necessary steps towards that goal and
modify your approach every time you get a setback,
you will be the success that you read about.
This is the formula.
The only thing that differentiates those who succeed and those who
fail is how long you carry on trying.

Go on, go out and achieve, make 2011 the beginning of your
best decade!

Confused mind

The confused mind always says, "No."

Make your presentation simple. If your presentation is long and complicated,
most people will say "No" because they are afraid of what they don't understand.

I have see this happen and been guilty of this myself.
A sign to look for is when their eyes glass over.
Then you know you have been talking too much
instead of asking them what are their needs and wants.

If your presentation is too simple, your interested prospect will then
eagerly ask you for more information.

The simplest of course is to invite them to watch a DVD, read a brochure
or visit a web site.

Don't forget to follow up. Ask what liked about the information package.
