Written by Caterina Rando


Some daysrepparttar wind andrepparttar 123533 world all seem to be working with you- you find a parking spot inrepparttar 123534 perfect place, get through to people when you call them, accomplish tasks with ease. Atrepparttar 123535 end ofrepparttar 123536 day, you feel your business or career moving forward. Then there arerepparttar 123537 days when you drag yourself around,repparttar 123538 phone seems to weigh 40 pounds, you can't find what you need,repparttar 123539 copier jams and atrepparttar 123540 end ofrepparttar 123541 day, you feel like you would be further along if you stayed in bed. Some days, some weeks seem to go well because your Success Stamina is high and others seem challenging because your Success Stamina is low.

Maintaining your Success Stamina is far more complex than simply keeping up your physical stamina by getting enough sleep, eating a power breakfast and skippingrepparttar 123542 Martinis at lunch.

Your Success Stamina isrepparttar 123543 proper combination of enough attention to your mental, emotional, spiritual and physical well being. When you neglect any of these aspects of yourself your stamina for success will be compromised:

To keep yourself in action and to keep everything flowing inrepparttar 123544 right direction, identify which ofrepparttar 123545 following factors you can focus on to improve your Success Stamina:

Keep Your Eye on The Pie Your momentum will stay high when you have a clear vision of what it is you are working to accomplish. Every morning take two minutes to focus on visualization of you having achieved your desired outcome. See a vivid mental picture of that large commission check in hand, of you signingrepparttar 123546 contract or overseeingrepparttar 123547 installation ofrepparttar 123548 equipment you are selling. Whatever success is to you see it. Hold that picture in your mind through outrepparttar 123549 day.

Thinking and Planning Time Atrepparttar 123550 end of each day take time to plan forrepparttar 123551 next day. During that time identify what it is you want to accomplish tomorrow. What resources you need to do that, what questions you need answered. Planning allows you to be proactive rather than reactive, which is what happens when you wait untilrepparttar 123552 last minute. Planning also allows your subconscious mind time to figure out your strategy for completing tomorrow's tasks.

Focus on Relationships First Inrepparttar 123553 hustle and bustle of making things happen we often forget that there are people we are serving through our work. By focusing on those people, getting to know them, listen to them and increase our clarity about what their needs are we will sharpen our senses for how we can create solutions that will best serve ourselves and our clients.

Such Is Life, And It's Getting Sucher And Sucher

Problems, disappointments and trouble;repparttar three skunks that sometimes think they are our children. At least they want to stay around long enough to give us a college education. Butrepparttar 123532 education we get may be only halfrepparttar 123533 story, See what you think!

Nailed To The Cross!

Have you ever felt like you were jinxed? That somehow you were just born onrepparttar 123534 wrong side ofrepparttar 123535 tracks? Have you ever felt like whenrepparttar 123536 bird of paradise flew over it wasn't snow balls he was dropping?

Joinrepparttar 123537 club;repparttar 123538 club of life that is. You know, I have heard it said before, and I may have said it sometime inrepparttar 123539 past myself, that trials and troubles are here to teach us something. I sure they probably can if we pay attention.

But, you know something? There is another side of that coin. If troubles and problems and pain are here to teach us something, why don't we give all of our kids a hammer to take to school and tell them to hit themselves inrepparttar 123540 head with it because they will learn better ifrepparttar 123541 hurt all day?.

I realize that is a preposterous idea, but you get my point. There is probably truth on each side ofrepparttar 123542 coin, but I prefer to examinerepparttar 123543 other side and see if there might be something we can learn from that.

An Ace Up Our Sleeve!

Suppose we say there is no reason forrepparttar 123544 PDT. suppose we say we had nothing at all to do with them coming our way. Suppose we say, we were not born onrepparttar 123545 wrong side ofrepparttar 123546 tracks, we are not jinxed, and it has nothing to do with bad luck.

Ok, so if we say PDT is not just to teach us something, and make us fit forrepparttar 123547 next battle, why are they here? How about a very simple answer? That's justrepparttar 123548 way that life works. And, every one of us is included inrepparttar 123549 design. So,repparttar 123550 universe has a job to do and we do too.

Just A Good Ole Boy!

This kind of article always brings uprepparttar 123551 subject of Job and his troubles. The Bible says Job was a righteous man. So, it wasn't Job who broughtrepparttar 123552 problems on himself. He said he didn't do anything to deserve them. He wasn't jinxed and did not have perpetual bad luck.

In fact, historians tell usrepparttar 123553 whole ordeal with Job only lasted around nine months. And, then Job got everything back he had lost. Job did say something interesting though. He said, "The thing I' have always feared has come upon me". Umm. Interesting.

The thing I have feared. That could lead us right back to what's going on inside our head. So, it's not your inherited bad luck, it's not some hex that some witchdoctor has put on you, and it's not I always end up withrepparttar 123554 short end ofrepparttar 123555 stick kind of deal.

The end ofrepparttar 123556 stick we end up with does have a lot to do with what is going on inside our head, If we believe that we always getrepparttar 123557 short end, then life does it's job by helping us getrepparttar 123558 short end. If we believe that we win a few and lose a few,repparttar 123559 universe goes into motion to help us win a few and lose a few.

Letting The Cat Out Of The Bag!

The universe didn't single anyone out and say ok, you getrepparttar 123560 short end 90% ofrepparttar 123561 time and someone else getsrepparttar 123562 long end 90% ofrepparttar 123563 time. The universe, at least in my experience, has shown that it does not care who gets roughed up 90% and who gets to sail through easily onrepparttar 123564 winds of fortune.
