Having a Role Model

As important as personal experience is, think how invaluable it is to have a role model as well - someone who's navigated the rapids before you and has a good map for you to follow. You can have a role model for your finances, a model for your relationships, a model for your health, a model for your profession, or a model for any aspect of your life you're learning to master. They can save you years of pain and keep you from going over the falls.

There will be times when you're on the river solo and you'll have to make some important decisions on your own.

The good news is that if you're willing to learn from your experiences, then even times you  think were difficult become great because they provide valuable information- key distinctions - that you will use to make better decisions in the future. In fact, any extremely successful person you meet will tell you - If they're honest with you - that the reason they're more successful is that they've made more poor decisions than you have . 

People often ask, "How long do you think it will take for me to really master this particular skill?" And I ask them, "How long do you want it to take?" If you take action ten times a day ( and have proportionate "learning experiences")  while other people  act on a new skill  once a month, you'll have ten months   of experience in a day, you will soon master the skill, and will, ironically, probably be considered "talented and lucky."

I tell you now, "Mastery takes as long as you want it to take".

The Magnificent Obsession - Creating A Compelling Future....

GIANT GOALS PRODUCE GIANT MOTIVATION So often, people ask me, "Where do I get my energy? With all that intensity, no wonder you're so successful. I just don't have your drive; I guess  I'm not motivated. I guess I'm lazy." My usual response is, "You're not lazy! You just have impotent goals!" Frequently I get a confused look to this response, at which point I explain that my level of excitement and drive comes from my goals. Every morning when I wake up, even if I feel physically exhausted from a lack of sleep, I'll still find the drive I need because my goals are so exciting to me. They get me up early, keep me up late, and inspire me to marshal my resources and use everything I can possibly find within the sphere of my influence to bring them to fruition. The same energy and sense of mission is available to you now, but it will never be awakened  by puny goals. The first step is to develop bigger, more inspiring, more challenging ...

The Path to Wellness

Beauty is not limited to just the exterior. Beauty is intentionally nature and our physical appearance is just a small part of it. Therefore one should endeavour  to look beyond size, weight, height or skin colour to transform our personality. A number of self help books will tell you how to deal with the many aspects of one's life. To live a wholesome life one needs to transform the way we look at nutrition, grooming and attitude towards our day-to-day life. Beauty is not limited to just the exterior - size, weight, height or skin colour. Beauty is internal in nature and our physical appearance is only a part of it. Therefore one should endeavour to look beyond external factors to transform our personality. The first step in this transformation  is the acceptance of the fact that we are beautiful as we are. The important thing is to take good care of our skin,, hair  and body by eating well, exercising and maintaining basic hygiene. One must pay attention to their ...

WHY DOESN'T EVERYONE SET GOALS?

You might be thinking right now, "Well, this all sounds so inspiraional, but surely just setting a goal doesn't make it happen." I couldn't agree with you more. All goal setting must be immediately followed by both the development of a plan, and massive and consistent action toward its fulfillment. You  already have this power to act. If you haven't been able to summon it, it's merely because you have failed to set goals that inspire you.  What's holding you back? Surely you've been exposed to the power of goal setting before. But do you have a list of clearly defined goals for the results you will absolutely produce in your life mentally, emotionally,physically, spiritually, and financially? What has stopped you? For many it's the unconscious fear of disappointment. Some people have set goals in the past and failed to achieve them and, as a result of their disappointment and their fear of future pain, they stop setting goals. They don't ...
