You know repparttar story. Everyone whinges about their job but they keep turning up year in, year out........ still whinging.......... Allways saying "I don't want to do this job for repparttar 123130 rest of my life"......blah blah blah ...... whinge whinge whinge.

It has turned into some weird Australian culture of entrapment.

Anyway, after talking to Bob I realised what it took to change. I had to educate myself. So off I went. I enrolled in a night course on PLC's (programmable logic controllers). Basically computer programs that run machinery.

What a waste of time that turned out to be. I got a piece of paper saying that I was qualified, but in actual fact I knew nothing about repparttar 123131 bloody things. I came out of that course more confused than when I started.

Oh well I'll chalk that one down to experience. So next I thought I'd enroll in university (part time at night) because my next door neighbor had done this course on adult education. I thought "If she can do it, so can I".

To cut a long story short this great adventure into academia lasted one whole semester. I dropped out of this course thinking that university teachers were a bunch of jumped up twerps that wouldn't know if their arse was on fire. And when they discovered it was on fire they would spend repparttar 123132 next ten years writing a thesis on "the discovery of anal self combustion".

I guess I was looking for something a little more practical.

I was at a mates place one night and after a few beers we started talking about repparttar 123133 future and what we were hoping to achieve. As a result of this conversation he pulls out this folder with some investment information in it and gives it to me to have a look at.

So I take it home and read through it and it talks about stock markets and real estate. I thought "this looks all right". Then I started looking around for courses on repparttar 123134 subject.

I soon found a number of these courses by so called guru's. I pondered for a while and thought bugger it I'll borrow some money ($5,000) and attend a couple. They really opened my eyes. This gave me a new focus. Now it was time to make some real money.

So that's how I got started. I made a decission to improve my situation and I took action. It took a couple of years before I even got on repparttar 123135 right track. At first I thought that you had to get an education through some form of college or university. Boy was I wrong.

The best form of education you can get is self education. Buy books and look at web sites. Find a mentor or like minded individuals. Don't re invent repparttar 123136 wheel. Find out what other people have done and copy their system.

So even if you don't have any money ta spare, go to repparttar 123137 library and borrow some books and make a start. Get my newsletter at www.howtogetfilthyrich.com/newsletter.html Just by repparttar 123138 simple act of reading you are doing something. You are creating a habbit of success. And that habbit is what will take you far.

Harnessing the Power of the Unknown: Move from Repeating the Past to Re-inventing the Future

Written by Connie Butler

Continued from page 1
One of repparttar

things that prevent you from experimenting with unknown territory is that you believe you won’t be safe. Once again you use your imagination against yourself and your goals rather than accessing repparttar 123129

resources that will support you in entering unknown territory. So how can you move into new territory safely? 1)Navigation: One of repparttar 123130

premises I hold in working with clients is that we each have our own innate intelligence, our own North Star by which to navigate. Have you ever had repparttar 123131

experience of just “knowing” that something was right for you? That is repparttar 123132

action of your own innate intelligence, your own North Star. The more you can develop your contact with that innate knowing, even feeling it in your body repparttar 123133

more you have a sextant with which to navigate repparttar 123134

unknown. This connection is learnable. Using it you are able to sense and know repparttar 123135

right move without accessing negative imagination. You become more agile in making accurate decisions. 2)Innate Talent: identifying, following and developing your own innate talent will always move you into new territory and if you are true to it will always lead you into safe territory. Some people awaken their innate talent in their current jobs and discover new levels of success; others wrap entirely new businesses around that talent. In either case, new success and fulfillment result. 3)Intention: In order to navigate safely you need to have a sense of where you are going, once more not based solely on repparttar 123136

past but flexibly moving towards possibility. Developing a clear intention here that is in alignment with your talents and your values creates natural stepping-stones in this unknown landscape. They feel right! Setting a clear intention allows you to envision where you are going and when new opportunities arise you can recognize them as a possible steeping stones. Your positive, informed imagination aids you in finding repparttar 123137

right next step. 4)Guidance and Support: Because we often have to move against our patterning and learning in this movement towards repparttar 123138

new, it is useful to have a mentor or guide to help you discern when you are straying off your navigated course and moving back towards repparttar 123139

past. The right guidance at repparttar 123140

right moment can offer new tools, prevent you from being myopic and open your vision to a whole new horizon. It can also accelerate your progress.

I suggest that you spend at least a few moments in repparttar 123141 busyness of your life to question what your relationship with repparttar 123142 Unknown is really about. Do you relish it? Do you fear it? Do you ignore repparttar 123143 richness that could be there for you? Do you repeatedly use negative imagination to hold you back to mistakenly “keep you safe”? Then take a look at some of repparttar 123144 tools I have suggested that can assure a safe passage for you and honestly ask yourself how you are developing each of them. Who can aid you in scouting new territory for your personal and professional life? Develop those relationships- they are repparttar 123145 invaluable ones!

You can excel in life and in business as you keep dynamically moving forward into new territory. Connie Butler

The greatest danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short, but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark. (Michelangelo Buonarroti)

I have just happened on a book that describes much of my approach in working with people. It has been heartening and inspiring for me to read his words. The book is Crossing repparttar 123146 Unknown Sea: Work as a Pilgrimage of Identity by David Whyte. Pick it up I assure you it will enliven all that you do.
