Personal Development Precedes Business Development

“If you want to be wealthy and happy, learn this lesson well: Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job.” ~Mr. Shoaf (Jim Rohn’s mentor)

Are you working harder on yourself than your job? Really? How are you doing that?

We all try to work hard at our jobs, but how much time do we really spend working on improving OURSELVES? Sure you might go to the gym, run, exercise and eat right, but how much time are you spending on improving YOUR MIND? Are you learning new words to expand your vocabulary? Are you learning new and better ways to make decisions? Are you learning new things? Maybe a new language, studying about history of The United States, not the history you were taught in government schools...

Personal Development precedes Business Development, so if you are struggling in your business, or just stuck, get back to working on yourself!  You cannot improve your business without first improving you.

Every little bit of time we work on improving ourselves gets paid back with compounded interest, so spend a little time working on YOU. And then, start spending more time working on YOU. You will be surprised and happy about the results...

Self-Confronting Questions

"Some self-confronting questions: 'Where do I want to be at any given time? What do I have to do to get myself from where I am to where I want to be? What's the first, small step I can take to get moving?' "~ George A. Ford

If you ask these questions of yourself, they can be intimidating, scary and challenging. Here's part of the key in answering them...you must have total clarity of what you want and where you want to be. See, must of us have a general idea of what we want, but not a crystal-clear vision of what we want. “If you are clear about what you want, the world responds with clarity."

"What do I have to do to get myself from where I am to where I want to be?" Ask and ANSWER that question now. Oh, you can think about it, but until you seriously ask yourself that question, you will never be able to get to where you want to be. It takes steps. Figure out what steps you need to take to get you started towards where you want to be. You don't have to see the whole path, just get started.

George Bernard Shaw said "Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself." Start creating the life that you want, NOW. Remember, it's your choice, no one elses. Stop looking and start creating. It all starts with your thoughts!

The Vision in Your Mind

"The vision that you glorify in your mind, either you revere or you fear."~James Allen

Any thought that is either feared or revered gathers energy around it and becomes the life we build. This will become you. What you resist, persists. Did you realize that? Most people spend too much time thinking about the things they don't want as opposed to the things they want. The result? They get more of what they don't want!! Spend more time on the things you want rather than on the things you don't.

Chris Lee said "Everything you've done in life - the good, the bad - have all brought you to this moment. Someone out there obviously wants you to do something significant, right now. That person is you." Do you want to do something significant? I think most people do, but they don't know what. Look inside, everything you've done in life has brought you to this moment. That's where you will find your gift to the world. Inside you.

Expanding Your Imagination

“All I’m saying is that to liberate the potential of your mind, body and soul, you must first expand your imagination. You see, things are always created twice: first in the workshop of the mind and then, and only then, in reality. I call this process ‘blueprinting’ because anything you create in your outer world began as a simple blueprint in your inner world.”~ Robin Sharma

Do you liberate the potential of your mind, body and soul? Really? Most people are just happy to exist, with never giving a second thought to expanding the mind, much less the body and soul...

To expand your mind it all starts with imagination. Imagination. Remember when you were 5 years old and you could be anybody and do anything? Why have you lost that imagination? Sure, there are some creative people out there who never lost their imaginations, but most of us had our imaginations beat out of us by well meaning parents, teachers and friends.

Before you can make anything happen in your reality, you need to make it happen in your imagination or in your mind. Did you realize that? Do you understand that? Start creating the world you want on the inside and it will be created on the outside. Start seeing the things you want on the inside.

You can change your reality at any moment...Make it NOW!

Clarity of Mind and Passion

“Clarity of mind means clarity of passion, too; this is why a great and clear mind loves ardently and sees distinctly what it loves." ~Blaise Pascal

Do you have clarity of mind? Really? Most people don't and that is their biggest challenge to getting the things they want. They aren't clear on what they really want. They say I want this or I want that and never become CRYSTAL CLEAR on what it is that they truly want. Take some time right now and think if you are Crystal Clear on what you want, because without it, you're just wasting your time.

Do you have clarity of passion? If you don't have clarity of the mind, you can't have clarity of passion. You can have passion but if it isn't clear, it isn't as white hot as it can be. Most people have some passion and they may even say it's real strong passion but imagine your passion 10 times stronger, 20 times stronger. That is what will happen when you have clarity of passion.

Work on having Clarity of Mind and Clarity of Passion today and let me know how it went and how different you felt.
