Are You Expecting To Succeed?

Written by Gordon Bryan


Or are you expecting to fail?

Sounds like a silly question, doesn’t it. But it isn’t!

I’m going to delve intorepparttar world of sport to illustrate this point.

You may or may not like sport, but it is fantastic for personal development examples.

Right then, here we go…

Golf – Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus. Tennis – Pete Sampras, Bjorn Borg. Boxing – Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali.

What do they all have in common?

They all expected to win, and here’srepparttar 123424 kicker, any opponent facing them expected to fail!

People attract what they think about.

This is because conscious thoughts can programrepparttar 123425 subconscious mind, which in turn makes you act in a certain way, withrepparttar 123426 subsequent consequences.

The 6 sports stars above, they won many events before they’d started.

When You Don't Get What You Expect; Inspect What You Got!

Written by Richard Vegas


What do you do when everything goes wrong? What do you do when there is no place to turn? What do you do when today is just not your day and tomorrow isn't looking too good either? What do you do when you tell everyone what you need and all they tell you is how to get along without it?

A Force To Be Reckoned With!

Did you know there is a definite way to link up withrepparttar best things life has to offer? Did you know that there are blessings ready to crawl all over you right now? Blessings are everywhere you turn. I can just hear someone right now; "Vegas, you're just a few grapes short of a fruit salad."

Consider this: does it seem strange that no one thinks it is abnormal to believe that bad things might happen to them? Consider this: If I say something like, "that's just my dumb luck" and you hear me say it, would you think it is strange? No! In general, most people would not.

Those words don't sound foreign to our hearing. We hear them all our lives. We don't even give it a second thought when we hear someone say something that would be detrimental to their well being. We just accept it as a part of life.

Consider this: If I say, "Everything in my life always goes perfect!" And, you hear me say it; would that sound strange to you? Sure it would. There seems to be something inside of us that resists saying something good about ourselves.

Believe In Yourself!

It may berepparttar 123423 fear that we will jinx ourselves if we say it, or that we don't want to sound like we are boasting or bragging. So, if you heard me say that, would you think I'm lying? Well, let me forrepparttar 123424 record right here and now say; "Everything in my life always goes perfect!"

How you say? It is easy when you consider that it's not a matter of circumstances. The problem is; it's not easy to not considerrepparttar 123425 circumstances! The circumstances are there; they're like bugs crawling all over us.

Everywhere we turn we feel like we have to figure out an answer to this and that. And, if we don't, we get as nervous as a pregnant possum; which just ads torepparttar 123426 feeling that we are going to end up like death warmed over.

A Bird's Eye View!

Even thoughrepparttar 123427 circumstances are striking fear inside of us;repparttar 123428 real issue is not what is happening atrepparttar 123429 moment. The circumstances can be bad, if we userepparttar 123430 traditional definition of bad circumstances. Yes, things can be bad. But, life is more than circumstances!

Life is about living. And, you're not living when you're being pushed around by bad circumstances. Consider this: When you are living under your circumstances, you are being pushed around by something that can't touch you.

The circumstances can't break your leg or eat you. All they can really do is to give you a good case of foot in mouth disease. And, all too frequently, that's exactly what happens.

The Burning Question!

Think about something! There can berepparttar 123431 biggest storm you have ever faced swirling all around you at any given moment. But,repparttar 123432 circumstances i.e.:repparttar 123433 storm, are not what is going to beat you. Do you know whatrepparttar 123434 only thing that can beat you is? You ready? Losingrepparttar 123435 fire of desire!

What isrepparttar 123436 fire of desire? The fire of desire isrepparttar 123437 mechanism inside of you that says; "Everything in my life always goes perfect." You know; that rusty mechanism inside you that you haven't oiled in six months. I'm teasing, don't you get mad at me.
