“The greatest prison that people live in is the fear of what other people think.”
~David Icke
Are you stuck in that prison? A lot of people are. A lot of people live their lives constantly worrying about what other people are thinking about them. If that's you I've got some great news for you. Are you ready? You sure? Here it comes...You don't need to worry about what other people are thinking about you because...THEY AREN'T THINKING ABOUT YOU!
Most other people are so worried about themselves that they don't have any time to think about you. They are caught up in their own life issues or maybe they are so worried about what you are thinking about them they don't have room to think about you. What do you think about that?
Remember when you had that great idea and you told someone and they thought the idea sucked? Did you move forward on that idea or did you drop it? Chances are you dropped it because you were valuing their view on things more than your own! Since when did we decide that other people's views are more important than our own? We too often dismiss our ideas when someone else thinks it's stupid or dumb or bad.
Can you imagine Thomas Edison telling people he was going to produce light from electricity? What do think they said to him? What about when the Wright Brothers were working in their bicycle shop and told one of their customers that they were building a flying machine?
Stop living in that prison and break out now!

Planning, Preparation, Practice And Performance
"How you run the race-your planning, preparation, practice, and performance-counts for everything. Winning or losing is a byproduct, and aftereffect of that effort." ~John Wooden
How are you running the race? How is your planning, practice and performance? Do you plan daily, weekly, monthly, yearly or do you just do what you've always done and get by doing that? Are you practicing your performance? Really? When was the last time you practiced your sales presentation? When?
See, winning takes place in the preparation, not in the presentation. All those years that Wooden coached UCLA, he never spoke about winning and losing, only about maximizing his players abilities. His success proves that the winning is in the preparation.
Winning or losing is a byproduct, and aftereffect of that effort. Do you realize that? Most people don't see it that way. It's your preparation that allows you to win or causes you to lose. Are you spending enough time preparing or are you just winging it?
So I will ask again, how is your preparation? Stop worrying about making the sale and prepare like a champion for the presentation and you will win as often as Wooden did. (for those of you too young to remember Coach Wooden, he won 10 NCAA Men's Basketball Championships in 12 years)

Break Your Own Records
"Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but to get ahead of ourselves -- to break our own records, to outstrip our yesterday by our today."~ Stewart B. Johnson
Are you getting ahead of yourself or are you trying to keep up and get ahead of your neighbors and friends? See, our society has made it a game about keeping up with the Joneses. All the advertising is directed at making you feel as if you need everything to keep up. And if you don't, well, you might be thrown out of Scottsdale!! I mean, come on, we have a reputation to uphold here...lol
How shallow have we become to buy into that crap? I sure hope that we are finding our way out and just worrying about keeping ahead of ourselves. That's where growth is! That's where change is! That's where happiness is!
Take a moment to think about how you can 'outstrip your yesterday by your today.' What would it take to make today a better day than yesterday? That's all you have to do...consciously think about how you can make today better than yesterday...and then do it!
When you realize that even the poorest American is in the top 3% of people in the world as far as wealth goes it might change your thinking. Or that 60% of the world doesn't have running water or indoor plumbing, or that 50% has never made a telephone call, you will realize that our job is just to get ahead of ourselves and not anyone else.

What Other People Think
Many people allow their need for other people's approval to control their lives. They spend their lives worrying about what others think of them.- Rick Warren
Do you have the need for other people's approval? Do you let that control your life? Too many people are controlled by the need for approval from someone other than themselves.
One of my favorite quotes is "It's none of my business what you think of me." That quote is freeing and restrictive at the same time. It tells me that I don't have to worry about what others think of me and that's the freeing part. The restrictive part is that I have to keep reminding myself that it is none of my business!!
Don't spend you life worrying about what other people think about you. Want to know why??? It's simple, really...OTHER PEOPLE AREN'T THINKING ABOUT YOU!!! They are too caught up in their own crap to be thinking about you and your crap.
Go be who you were meant to be and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. You are the only one who matters. It is your choice. Choose!
