continued from Smaller Indiana…… you might even change your weight ’set point’. You don’t have to be allergic to change your thoughts but your thoughts must change before you stop eating bad foods.

You have a ’set point’ so to speak with your money as well. No matter how motivated you get at any certain time, if you don’t change the way you think about money you will have the same mediocre results.  Harv Eker has made it easy to understand and realistic to change.  Check this out:  Tony Scelzo

My summer has been spent studying, traveling, and working with as much mountain bike riding added in as I can.  I suspect I spend more time in higher education and study than I ever did in school and truthfully, this is education I am hungry for.

So, in pursuit of my education I listened to a conference call the other day with Jack Canfield.  What fabulous information he shared.  It was so good it bears repeating and sharing with you all.  Jack said something that I have heard before but now it makes sense in a whole new way.  The quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask.  So instead of asking, ‘why didn’t I get that promotion?’ or ‘why don’t I get lucky like Joe ? (insert the name of your relevant friend and/or colleges) ask new questions.  Consider asking, ‘why do I deserve love?’ or ‘why will I get the next promotion?’ or ‘why am I cool like Joe?’

Your brain is designed to answer what ever questions you pose to it.  Want better answers, want better ideas? Ask better questions. Your brain will answer, it will find answers for you… find the good ones.

Oh and one more thing… check out Tut.com and sign up for the daily emails, they are short, funny and definitely inspirational.

When you find the lesson, write it down.

I was working with one of my clients recently about moving on, moving on from relationship fallout and the changes coming in her life. She found this tip helpful:

1. Look for the lesson in the situation.

When you are standing there looking at disappointment or perceived failure focus on something else. Instead allowing your emotions to grab your hand and take you for a run down the beach of the emotional ocean, STOP and shift your focus to investigative reporter. Search through the rubble with the idea that you can find the lesson that you learned. If you can find the lesson in the situation you face you improve your chances of not repeating the experience.

Think about video games for an example. You play the game and with each level you are getting better. However, if your character gets killed on level 5, then you get to try again. But you never get to go to level 6 until you have mastered or at least passed level 5. In this case, (the same as real life) you can continue to work at mastering level 5 OR you can quit. I see many people who hit those challenges the very first time, they get knocked down and they stay down and say that it isn’t meant to be, or they blame outside circumstances. Just shift the focus. Shift the focus to finding the lesson you learned and you can come away from any “failure” (Failure is in quotes because I don’t see many situations as failures just lessons, just exercises to hone us for success.) as a success.

Maybe it’s about intent. If you stand over the rubble of some tragedy in your life with the intent to grieve, then you cry and you think back on what you had and grieve the loss of how things could have been. (And it is reasonable and healthy to do some of that) However, if you stand over the rubble with the intent to find the lesson, you are going to find ways to improve your future experience. When you can accept what is, you move faster towards what can be.

This idea works with business and marketing just the same. If you find that you are having the same challenges come up time after time, go back to the last experience and find the lesson, no matter what it takes, so you can move to the next level.

What lessons have you learned lately?

As many of you may know by now I have been studying fervently at leadership, business, sales and enlightenment. At one of the camps I attended last year we had to learn the value of ‘CORRECT AND CONTINUE!’ I think it was one of the best leadership skills I learned.
The lesson was ‘CORRECT AND CONTINUE’ not ‘COMPLAIN AND CARRY ON, not CORRECT AND BLAME, not ‘REACT AND RETREAT’, not even ‘STOP AND OVER ANALYZE.’ In contrast you might see the value of the lesson. As I have said before, it is only in challenge that you get to see your true reflection and verify if you have grown or not. I am delighted to say that the reflection is coming back better than it was before!

(Time for a little celebration! Ta da da dda! Ta da da dda! that is the music to my little happy dance. One of the other lessons I learned this year is to CELEBRATE MY WINS! - how am I doing?)

Harv talks about failing forward, in order to better understand …. anyway here is the thing: We planned the Millionaire Mind Event for April 2, but due to scheduling conflicts we have rescheduled the event to May 21 - “same Bat time same Bat channel” (which translates to it’s the same time, same place, different date) While we have tried to notify everyone, there are some who have slipped through the cracks. If you planned to come but didn’t get the updated information, I beg forgiveness. Grab your calendar and pencil in the new date and then be sure to register. Please know that we are doing our best to ‘CORRECT AND CONTINUE’ because we believe that living the principles is the best way to teach them. I learned these lessons from T. Harv and I am passionate about sharing them with any of you that are interested.
