Motivation Articles

Since I have started this series on manifesting your heart's desires, I have been manifesting like crazy. I've had more ideas, more support, more love, more clarity, more direction, more drive tha I've had in years...and years. I thought I was motivated before, but that was nothing compared to what's going on now. Well, if you haven't figured it out by now,the last step in the process of manifesting your heart's desires is the action step. I can't tell you how many people don't take the appropriate action though. It's huge.

Are you ready to take your personal or professional life to the next level? Is everything in place? Are all your "ducks in a row?" We often hear people using these (and other) clichés to let others know that they're planning to do something big... someday, sometime in the future. Have you noticed that many people are constantly "getting ready" to do something, yet never quite getting there – often not even beginning the journey? Are you doing this yourself? Are you stuck in

I am in the habit of asking a simple question to myself before doing anything, particularly when I am in doubt. And that question is: “Is it good for me?” If I get the answer “yes” then I go ahead otherwise I drop the idea. For example, before eating any food I ask myself “if eating this food is good for my heath?” If the reply is in affirmative then I eat otherwise I leave it.

nWhy is it that we’re sailing along, making good progress it seems, and suddenly hit a roadblock, a dead end, and why is it that this seems to occur over and over and over — as a repetitive pattern? Could it be, possibly, that our energy batteries are reversed?nnLet’s answer that question by briefly examine psychoenergetic reversal. This is an intriguing concept. Howard Brockman says psychoenergetic reversal is “a category of self-sabotage that can blo

I am sure you have heard all the claims that advertisers make about losing weight, growing hair and getting rich. More often than not none of these schemes work. But here is one fact that does; a habit good or bad can be created in 21 days. Science has shown us that if you do something for 21 days straight it becomes a habit and the longer you stick with it the stronger your habit will become. The reverse is also true in regard to bad habits. If you have a bad habit, make a h

Women have done quite well in last two decades in the fields where men dominated earlier. The number of women working has increased big time. This includes some of the most powerful figures in corporate world too. In today’s time womenare filling positions of influence in corporate boardrooms, hospitals, athletic competitions, and even Politics. The field of motivational speakers is also no more limited to men. There are some Female Motivational Speakers In India doing phen

I noticed a definite self-sabotage theme last week: Are you aware you might be doing things that keep you small, lower your game and cause you to head in the opposite direction to the one you know you're destined to be traveling? I trust it would be useful to take a look at ways to address self sabotage and how to get clear on big enough reasons to stop that old behavior and adopt some new strategies so that you'll sparkle like a diamond - and love the process.

Few truly worthwhile things are attained without adversity, obstacles and conflict all of which can make us stronger, smarter, better, and tougher. In Think and Grow Rich Napoleon Hill writes:nnMore than 500 of the most successful men this country has ever known told the author their greatest success came just one step beyond the point at which defeat had overtaken them...Opportunity 'often comes disguised in the form of misfortune or temporary defeat...Thomas A. Edison "fail

Whether you are a group leader, or a storeowner, or even an ordinary man walking down the street, one thing is for certain: people don’t trust you. Why should they? They don’t even know who you are. Life experience (not to mention ghastly news coverage) has warned them not to be naïve about life or about strangers that they meet. Can you blame them for not trusting you? Just because you smile, just because you start a company or an organization, doesn’t mean that you are trus

I tuned in to listen to my radio show on the new station and was very disappointed not to hear it. They were airing an infomercial for a personal cleansing product instead. When I told my husband the show wasn’t on, he reminded me that the time had changed and the show would be on in an hour. I ...

1. Spend less than you earn: This is the first Rule that you must do if you want to create a considerable amount of wealth. Many people spend first and invest what is left. This is in comparison to the rich, who invest first and spend what is left. Each time I start a savings pla I always make a spreadsheet to keep track of my progress. I put the words in bold and underlined over the top "Invest first and spend what is left.” If you can grasp this first basic rule you are well on your way to creating wealth.

Shoes are indeed the most integral part of wardrobe. Finding the shoe which is stylish yet comfortable and sync with your rest of the wardrobe could be travail. However, things get more convoluted when shoe hunt is for women. Women happen to be more fashion conscious and trend follower. In their pursuit of finding the well designed and trendy footwear; they, sometimes, opt for something that can harm their health. Yes- it is an out rightly wrong perception that footwear has got nothing to do with health.

I love magic. I know many magicians and often attend magic conventions and shows. I haunt the dealer room, where magic tricks are sold. I'm looking for the tricks that make people gasp in surprise and delight. Unfortunately, most magic is on the level of a prank or kid's joke. That's not for me, so most magic that I see disappoints me. But one day I met a magic dealer at a convention who was very friendly. He took his time with me, listened to my needs, and then responded wit

Multi-tasking is a way of life for many, while others try to avoid doing more than one thing at a time. For some of us, it is something we must tolerate in order to maintain some sense order and accomplishment in our daily lives. By definition, multi-tasking is simply the action of completing multiple tasks at one time. While most of us perform ineffective forms of multi-tasking, only effective multi-tasking can improve work flow and create efficient task completion. Effectiv

Understanding the mind's role in motivation and behavior is one of the most critical elements in physical fitness success. If you struggle with changing habits and behaviors or if you can’t get motivated, then even the best training and nutrition program is not much help. nnA fascinating fact about your non-conscious mind is that it's completely deductive in nature. In other words, it is fully capable of working backwards from the end to the means. You do not need to have t

You are probably asking yourself right now; “what does the game of dominos have to do with low cost lead generation?” I have one brother and one sister. When we were young our parents would give us games for our birthdays or for Christmas. One of the first games we were given was Dominos. My mother, being a school teacher, always found fun ways for us to learn as we grew up. Understanding how to play Dominos gave us an insight for learning how to use numbers, math and - s

In my humble opinion, the single most important life-skill is communication. So get to work on yours. The end.nn*How great would it be if I could write posts as short as that and still have the desired impact? Make a statement, provide some instruction and then wrap it up. All in under ...

Building the Bridge to Your Reset: Do you ever get the feeling you're hurtling through life and it's dragging you along a bumpy road? I've heard it said that the concrete mixer is coming whether or not you tell it how you want the concrete poured. Would you rather design your front set than have concrete setting all over your front lawn or vegetable garden. Tomorrow will come, whether you're clear on your direction or not.

Any of you who know me, have heard me say this dozens of times,”businesses run on cash, not just hard work and enthusiasm.” But as an entrepreneur, it’s easy to forget that. You get pulled in so many different directions; newsletters, blogs, videos, new marketing gimmicks, fancy new products … well, you get the idea. So if cash is King or Queen in business-land, you need to be crystal clear on where you’re spending your time and your energy to maximize your impact so you can bring in more of that all important life-blood. In business speak this is known as “profit clarity”.

Sometimes the hardest thing for people is finding a way to motivate themselves. They say they want to do something and they don’t do it. One of the most important things about getting yourself motivated and staying motivated is to know your own motivation triggers. For those of you who know me, you know a lot about my book, “Words That Change Minds” which talks about all these different motivation triggers. But, let’s talk about some specific things that are important to you

Do you enable or empower the people around you?nnImagine for a moment that you’re having a bad day. Not too hard to do right, as we’ve all had them. Imagine now calling someone close to you, that you are needing to talk to, to help you though it. You tell them all the thoughts and feelings you’re having. The tough time at work, or the difficulties with your teenager or the argument you had with your spouse. Everything just doesn’t seem to be going the way you want it

Last year, I threw my TV out. Well, I didn't literally throw it out. However, I did cancel cable and removed the television from the main areas of my home. That means no access to TV in the living room, dining area, or kitchen. I live in New York City in a tiny condominium. Therefore, when I say I removed the TV from my living room, dining area and kitchen, I'm talking only about one small TV.

My favorite part about living in New York is that everyone here has a story about how they "made it". It's almost romantic. Looking for a job is here is hyper-competitive and most recommend finding your job here before you move. However, most companies won't take you seriously until you have a tri-state address on your resume. Can you say paradox? So let's talk about my situation in particular. I scored a great deal on an apartment, so I figured I'd just move and land

The other day as I was driving home on the freeway at the warp speed of 35 miles an hour, in traffic and I heard myself saying “Justice” statements. “I will get to that when I just…” “If I can just get…” or “If I could just get 15 minutes”. I then saw a law firm’s billboard add with the ...

Motivation Leads to Change Discomfort may often be the reason why individuals change. Receiving poor grades make us know what we should study. Bills remind us of our need to search out a means of income. Becoming humiliated gives us the ‘drive’ to fight for ourselves to keep us from other embarrassments. It might be a bitter experience, a relative’s tragic story, a wonderful story, or an inspiring speech which may help us get up and get the appropriate amount of determinatio

Happy to be here At the risk of sounding a little arrogant, I gotta say, my life is great. Overall, I'm pretty darn content. Not in a smug way, just in a happy-to-be-here kinda way. Yep, love being alive, love my family, love my friends, love my job, love where I live, love my country (you ...

“He who has a why to live can bear almost any how.”rn-- Friedrich Nietzsche Tis’ the season to be jolly and eat and drink more. Or does it have to be that way? This time of year is a time of reflection about what matters most in life, about friends, family and those in need. It is a time to reflect on the higher power, the Creator and to connect with him and his plans for our life. One day this life will be over. Treasure every moment, live sensibly, treat each other kindly and always remember and help those in need.

Do you find it difficult to motivate yourself? Are you always putting things off till tomorrow? Do you feel tired and lacking in energy? If you answer "yes" to one, or all, of these questions maybe you are running slow in your life and need some help to speed up. Scientists agree that speed creates energy. So, if you work at speed then you should gain energy. In general, this tends to be true. You could have a chore to do that you don’t feel like doing. If you just get on wi

I am famous for saying that change doesn't happen ove ight -- it happens over time. Any type of change you are creating is going to take time. You have to make the change a habit so that it is something that is simply an integral part of your life, and no longer something odd or different. Once ...

Habits. We’ve all got some great ones and some really bad one. The ability to quickly and consistently create new habits is a major factor in anyone’s success. Studies and research has found that it takes us 21-40 days of consistent, daily action to create a new habit, and a little longer if we are not taking daily action. When setting a new goal or target, personally or professionally, one of the easiest ways to reach it, is to set a new habit. Here are some examples: Goal: Pay off a credit card debt

I met a lady recently. Her eyes were simply amazing. They had a sparkle in them that could light a football field. These are the kind ofrneyes that you look at and are simply in awe of. Like a moth to a flame, they are irresistible. So, why did I share that with you in an article about living on purpose? Because, she was not living her purpose. She did that because she was told all her life by other people that it was not OK to be who she was. She was told to back off. She was told to “tone it down”. Her energy was too strong for people to handle.r

Years ago I asked Rhonda Byrne — the woman behind the Law of Attraction hit movie The Secret — an important question. We were having dinner in Maui when I asked, “How did you come up with the idea for the movie?” She thought for a long time before answering, “I called it forth.” “I called it forth” could mean a lot of things. But the other day I came across a quote from film maker David Lynch that made it all come together: “Ideas are floating like fish. Des

Motivation is one of those things everyone is looking for these days. They believe they can only accomplish their goal if they were only motivated.

We all have excuses as to why we can't do something. Ask anyone and they can give you a million excuses why it can't be done, why they haven't moved forward on their goals, and on and on. Making up excuses takes a lot of energy and time. So since, as humans, we seem to enjoy making up excuses, I ...

A radical inner transformation and rise to a new level of consciousness might be the only real hope we have in the current global crisis brought on by the dominance of the Western mechanistic paradigm. ~ Stanislav Grof A brisk walk on the beach and luminous meditation, perched on a giant sandbag on Cotton Tree beach, pulled together today's message for you which includes The Four levels of Transformation, Five Key Strategies to Feed your Vision and Six points to Create Your Vision.r

Many people are looking forward to making a success of their life, but I have found out that many fail to achieve their desired result because they do not have a plan on ground. You cannot go far in life unless you know exactly where you are heading to and how you intend to get there. A ship that will sail the turbulent seas is one that has set its sails. The big question is: “Do you have a plan?” Every successful man has a short, medium and long term plan.

I am a bit weird, a bit different, but show me anyone who isn't. Those who are trying to conform and act 'normal' are just as weird as those who aren't. Those that are considered a bit 'eccentric' or 'out there' should be celebrated if they are being their authentic self. As they say 'I am not ...

I am not really one for New Year resolutions. I kind of think I need to be continually making changes and improvements throughout the year. However, this year, I cleaned closets, rearranged my kitchen, brought stuff to the Salvation Army, AND, of course fit in some time for both relaxation and celebration. I am not sure what got into me. It just felt like the right thing to do to clear things out and make room for the new! So, I thought I would spend a little time talking abo

Once upon a time... there was a kid. A kid who loved to eat. Not unlike many kids, really. But this kid was different. He didn't just enjoy the occasional cookie or bowl of ice-cream. Or burger and fries. No, he lived for food. And when he wasn't eating... he was thinking about eating. At ...

With everything that’s going on in our daily lives, we regularly need to use some effective and proven motivation tips to get all our work and jobs done. We all at some time or other find ourselves in a rut where we have little motivation to get things done.

It could be that y

The old adage goes like this" health is wealth". It is indeed true in every sense. Although, in today's era; people have put it on the backbu er.
