Entrenched Assumptions And Mindsets

“Routinely seek opinions from people who ‘know nothing’ on a subject. These can be the most refreshing sources of new information, since they are not entrenched in assumptions and mindsets.”~Jim Canterucci

Are you dealing with people who are entrenched in assumptions and mindsets? Are you that person? Most of us have our assumptions and mindsets but are yours really working for you? I mean really??  Or are they working against you?

If you are doing what everyone else is doing, how are you different? How do people know that you are different, because you say you are?? Doesn't work, you need to show them you are different. Too many people and businesses try the "me too" style of business. They copy what the leaders are doing and say, "look at us, we do it the same way."

Be authentic. Be who you are, not who you think you have to be!

Today, when you are doing a regular part of your business, check and see if you can do it differently. See if there is a better way. Don't do it the same way because "we've always done it that way."

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

Are Your Thoughts Your Thoughts?

“Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.”~ Oscar Wilde 

Are you you? Or are you what someone else wanted you to be? Maybe your parents, teachers, peers? Did you do stuff to please other people or did you do stuff that you wanted to do? Who are you? Think about it for a while and then try to decide if you are being authentic or you're being what others want you to be.

Are your thoughts someone else's opinions or are they yours? Have you washed other people's opinion through your brain and come up with what you believe or are you just living a mimicry? You can believe what other's tell you, but be sure to run it through your own analyzer (brain) and make sure that you can say, "yes, I believe that too." Because you thought about it, not because someone else said it.

Quotations are a passion of mine, but my passion isn't a quotation. There's a mind-bender...figure it out yet? Is your passion just a quotation or is it real, vivid, alive, driving you forward?

Like we talked about yesterday, passion is the wind that drives your sail and nothing great was ever done without passion. 
One way to find you passion is to fill out the "Reflect Back and Plan Forward" worksheet. If you would like one, send an email to david@mentoringyoursuccess.com or text your email to 602-577-2624 and I will send it to you.

Don't Be Trapped By Dogma

“Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone elses life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”~Steve Jobs

Are you living someone elses life? Are you living with the results of other people's thinking? WHY? You only get one shot at this life, live it the way you want to, not the way others want you to live it.  Too often well meaning people try to guide us into things THEY think we need.  That leads you right into living with the results of other people's thinking.

Are you letting the noise of others opinions drown out your inner voice? That inner voice is your intuition and some say it is devinely inspired.  I call my inner voice Ziggy (for the cartoon and Sigmund Freud).  We have wonderful discussions and then I tell Ziggy, "Thanks for sharing, CANCEL!"  Don't let anyone's noise affect your intuition. Don't let your brain drown out the inner voice, because it will try to.

Do you have the courage to follow your heart and intuition? The only thing that can stop us is our fears, real or imagined. Are you following your heart or are you just along for the ride, the ride that started out a long time ago and you have never challenged yourself to change your direction.

When you have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, then everything else is secondary. Go for it. Just do it. Be who you were meant to be!!
