June 2020 - Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

Your Imagination Versus Your Realty

“What is real? Research will tell us we don’t interact directly on the world but through neurological filters. That means our subjective experience of objective reality differs from what ‘is there.’ We delete, we distort, we generalize incoming data.

This means at best we interpret the objective reality through these filters, which also include beyond our senses, our values, beliefs, experiences, and our memories. This means we have little clue as to what objective reality is. We miss so much and don’t even know it.

There’s so much more than we can be aware of. We never see the entire picture at once or at all. We only see tiny, really tiny, bits of it. Still, we’re able to function, live productive lives, and act as if we know what’s going on, even if we really don’t. It’s pretty amazing.

Energy Flows Where Attention Goes

Your brain, or the universe, doesn’t know the difference between what you imagine on the inside and what you see on the outside since both are subjective AND subject to filters. This is why what you think reality to be is what reality is for you.

This is why we create our own reality. When you experience unhappiness, or lack of money or success it IS because of what you’ve been focusing on. Your thoughts determine your reality. You get what you focus on. Your past thoughts shape your present days.

You can change the ‘reality’ you’ve manufactured and experience by changing your thoughts. Use your imagination. Make believe you already are happy, successful and have all the money you want. Be smart about imagining and create good outcomes and results.

You Get What You Focus On – You Create Your Reality

Use your mind to create the good you want. Stop using your mind to create pain and suffering. Learn how to let go and release the old ways. Begin to live in the new way. What you persistently think and feel determines what you persistently experience and live.

When you change your focus and pretend you already feel happy, successful and wealthy you begin to feel instantly better about each. As you feel better about each, you begin to experience more of each. Happiness, success and money begin to flow into your life. You create reality so create the reality you want! This is important. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

READ LIFE ON YOUR TERMS AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!

“As one of the ‘Top 25 Network Marketers in World’ and also a recovering alcoholic with over 30 years sobriety, I am constantly asked to review and read books on personal development either in business or recovery. Most of them are just like the last one I read. Nothing ever seems new or too useful. And then came Life On Your Terms by Rex Sikes. From the first page, I knew this book would be different and better. And the more I read the more right I was. Read this book. It will change your life. Even if your life is great, like mine is today, it will make it even better. I have so many people reading it, from my son to my AA friends to my business associates, because it works for everyone. I LOVE THIS BOOK!” – Tom Chenault, The Tom Chenault Radio Show

The Secret To Getting More Money

“The secret to getting more money seems counterintuitive but it is not. If you want to live a prosperous and abundant life there are things you must do. Everything is an exchange. There is no free ride. When you work it right the floodgates open and riches flow.

Go First. The universe returns what you first do. If you want money then give money. Give money first. It doesn’t matter the amount. It could be a penny, a dollar, a five or a ten. Give it to get it. Get it? You get back what you first put out. Your cause creates the effect.

If you want more money celebrate getting it. If you find a penny, get excited. Be thrilled. It doesn’t matter the amount. It matters you celebrate. The universe loves a joyous giver and a joyous receiver. When you throw a boomerang, a boomerang returns. Not a teacup.

Go First – Go First – Go First – Go First – Go First – Go First

You get back what you put out. Be positive. Be cheerful. Give generously whatever you can give. Receive happily whatever you receive. Attitude is everything. You’ll discover more comes your way. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Life Is What You Make It! How’s It Going?

“The goal in life is to feel fabulous and live the life you deserve to live. You are already living the life you think you deserve. If it isn’t everything you want then you need to think that you deserve a whole lot more. Expand your universe and what is possible.

The wealthy grow up with examples of privilege and prosperity, of having and having more, of dealmaking and accumulation The rest grow up with struggle, work hard, a job, maybe you can get ahead if you work hard enough, the ‘self-made’ person, poverty, and lack.

Mindset determines how far you go. If you grew up with a less than wealthy mindset you can learn to change it. The opportunity is yours. The choice is yours. Stick with what you have or improve upon it. Transform yourself and your life, or don’t. Get it?

A Quitter Never Wins And A Winner Never Quits

The control we have is over our thoughts. We either assert control or live with whatever we’re dealt. If you want a more wonderful life it begins with your thinking. Start thinking differently, Use your imagination to include all good things. Dream big and enjoy!

It’s either this or perpetuating the old. Regardless of what you were dealt, you can choose a better hand. People fail because they quit. They don’t actually do it. They try it. Many people fail because they think it’s unrealistic to be positive all the time. They don’t start.

If you want your life to change you must change some things in your life. You must change your thinking. Bad things and misfortune are blessings because they help you clarify what you don’t want and what you do. It’s an opportunity to shift your focus and thoughts.

We Become What We Most Frequently Think About

Use the opportunity to transform. There’s no reason to live with what you don’t like. You can positively and legally change things. Change your thinking and your feelings change. Change your feelings and your behaviors change. Change these and your results change. You can be, do and have more of what you want. You can create your best life ever. So, will you? It is up to you. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How Likely Will You Be Happy And Successful?

“Some people luck into success. It’s true. Some are born into it. The majority of people are not. Most people make their own success working together with others. Financial success is determined by who is willing to give you money for your products and services.

Attitude is the number one predictor of success. Do you have the right attitude to succeed? It is an important question and one that deserves some good time in self-reflection. If not, you can develop the correct attitude to make your success much more likely.

Another important question and predictor is how willing are you to change? You cannot do what you have always done and expect to succeed. Especially, if you are not currently succeeding. You must change things and overcome limitations and bad habits. Get it?

Minds Are Like Parachutes They Only Work When Open

One of the very first things you must change is any resistance to changing. Your willingness to change and do things differently, to incorporate the new attitude and mindset, is crucial to your success. If you aren’t willing to change, most likely you’ll not succeed easily.

Be willing to change and then make changes! Another major factor is how well can you learn? Are you willing to learn? Are you willing to learn and change? Learning means experimenting and persisting. You change some things, get feedback and make adjustments.

You must be open-minded and willing to adjust. You can’t keep repeating the same old things that have held you back and expect success. You must be open to learning and incorporating the new changes and must be willing to apply them. Do nothing. Get nothing.

If The Parachute Fails To Open – Don’t Worry We Will Replace It

Your attitude is crucial! Are you willing to change? Are you willing to learn? How teachable are you? This is important to assess! If you aren’t willing to learn and change and you aren’t teachable what hope do you have? Little! You must be teachable, but few are.

To be teachable you must be open. Empty yourself of your opinions, reasons, limitations, what you think you know, and be willing to think things differently. You must be able to listen and hear. Many think they are teachable but aren’t. Are you? How would you know?

Are you willing to apply what you learn? Are you willing to take feedback and adjust? Are you willing to continue until you succeed? If not, don’t expect much. If you are, you are ahead of most. Those who succeed do what those who don’t won’t! You must be willing.

If You Want Your Life To Change You Must Change Some Things

Reflect on these. Be honest in your assessment. On a scale from one to ten how willing are you to learn and make changes? How teachable are you? How open are you? How willing are you? If you score under a 7 or 8 you need to make some important changes.

If you score above a 7 or 8 are you being truly honest? If yes, great! Have you emptied your cup so there’s room for more? I refer to the Zen story I often share. If you’re filled with your knowledge and know what’s best, you aren’t truly open to receiving more. Get it?

Empty your cup. Become willing to learn and change. Become willing to be instructed. Then apply the knowledge you receive. If you do nothing with it, you haven’t learned it. You don’t know it. Apply what you learn and do what it takes to move forward. Most won’t. Will you? Mindset matters. Attitude determines your altitude. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Be Careful How And What You Think And Do

Take this to heart. Let it instruct and guide you. Sound advice for your success. Simple and straightforward. How do you think your life might change if you did more of this?

‘My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen to my words. Never let them get away from you. Remember them and keep them in your heart. They will give life and health to anyone who understands them. Be careful how you think; your life is shaped by your thoughts. Never say anything that isn’t true. Have nothing to do with lies and misleading words. Look straight ahead with honest confidence; don’t hang your head in shame. Plan carefully what you do, and whatever you do will turn out right. Avoid evil and walk straight ahead. Don’t go one step off the right way.’ Proverbs 4:20-27 GNT

Perhaps, all of us would benefit together if more of us applied these thoughts. After all, we are all in it together. Find the good. Count your blessings. Appreciate your family and friends. Live with compassion for self and for others. Guard your thoughts, words and actions. Savor the seconds. Make all your moments magical and marvelous. Delight in your day. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How To Tame And Even Eliminate Negative Self-Talk

“Do you believe the things you tell yourself? I’ll bet you have told yourself some pretty nasty things through the years. It is sad if you bought into them. If they motivate you to be different and better, okay. But if all they do is make you feel worse, then stop it.

You might think, ‘Well, that is easier said than done.’ AND yes, if you think that it certainly will be tougher than if you think, ‘Okay, let’s do it!’ What you choose to think and what you choose to believe affects how you feel, what else you think as a result of that and behaviors.

We all believe hurtful things and stupid things about ourselves. We were conditioned to do that growing up. We learned to have negative self-talk and limiting beliefs. Okay, are you going to live the rest of your life with that or are you going to change it? Choose.

Laugh At Your Problems And They Are No Longer Problems

If you want to change it here is one thing you can begin to do right now that can make a difference anytime you get down on yourself, talk poorly to yourself, rag on you or believe something that could be, and most likely is, absolutely untrue about you. Try it out!

Pretend for a moment you are god, or infinite intelligence, or a beloved and trusted friend, or simply your own higher awareness and ask yourself, ‘What would god say about me? What would my friend say about me? What am I not noticing that could benefit me?’

‘Would god say this? If I had more awareness what might I notice that I am missing? What would my higher self tell me to do? What else might s/he tell me to notice and pay attention to? Would s/he say I should or shouldn’t believe this?’ What would god have me think instead?’ Get it? Stop believing your old nasty thoughts!

Believe You Can And You More Likely Will – It’s Up To You

You can find alternative points of view that serve you better. The only reason you tell yourself the nasty things is from habit. Change your thinking about your thinking. Change your beliefs about your beliefs. Start choosing what you want to think and believe!

Stop perpetuating old, painful, negative conditioning. Believe the opposite, the positive and the new. Question everything and find the good, the silver lining and the gold. Train yourself to find the positive and the good instead of reliving the nasty old crappy thinking.

If you haven’t trained yourself to question those negative beliefs and self-talk, release it and replace it with the positive, now’s the time. Drop the hurt. Let go of the old way. Think of how much god, your friend or the universe loves and cares for you. They’d nurture you.

Want Your Life To Change – You Must Change Some Things

They wouldn’t waste your time insulting you. Why should you? Practice loving self-care. Shift from what was a problem and that which limited you into new positive ways to think, feel and be. Look for those things to pat yourself on the back. Find your wins.

If you can’t find that many yet, keep looking and you will. Meantime start creating some. Do this. Do it for a week or two. Stop the negativity and try on a different point of view. See yourself from someone’s loving eyes. Adopt a different consciousness.

Create the opportunity to be different and a couple weeks from now you’ll want to continue. Savor the seconds, make marvelous the minutes, delight in the day! Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How You Need To Think About Your Current Issues And Difficulty!

“Some people are having difficulty with current events. Some are troubled by shelter at home, wearing masks and social distancing. I’d like to remind you of a few points that might make a difference for anyone having some upset with current circumstances.

From chaos stars are born. The earth is going through birth pangs. Adversity contains within it the seed of opportunity. While that in itself may not seem like much help it can be if you adjust your thinking and your focus. We get what we focus on.

If you focus on how things hurt, you get more of it back. If not in actual events in how you feel. You can’t go uphill thinking downhill thoughts. It is up to us to grow the seeds of opportunity into positive new wonderful changes for all. Again, it is up to you and me.

The Kite Rises Highest Against The Wind

There is nothing wrong with birth pangs. It’s part of the process. There’s nothing wrong with problems when we learn from them. We grow stronger. Stop Perpetuating the problems. Take the lessons and grow wiser, smarter and make positive changes.

It wasn’t that long ago that settlers faced incredible hardship to move from the East to the West side of the U.S. Caravans or wagon trains of settlers endured great hardship to find promise 1000s of miles away. We should be able to watch TV at home, right?

It is what we make of it. Perhaps, we have gotten a little bit too soft. We’ve been too coddled and are a bit too wimpy. Troubles make us stronger just as weights or resistance training grows our muscles. We adjust and continue. We persevere. Find that pioneer spirit!

Adjust And Continue But Remember You Have A Backbone

Perhaps, we needed this ‘housecleaning’ or ‘energy clearing’ to get back on track. Maybe, we need some chaos and adversity to re-discover ourselves, our strengths and our resources again. Everything is a blessing when you consider everything a blessing. Get it? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

it is my three part video series on Leadership – and it is so true we need positive role models at this time.

One Of The Most Important Principles You Must Embrace For Success!

“What you want is first created in your imagination. When you worry you’re using your imagination to create precisely what you don’t want. It’s important to take charge and master your mindset so you create what you intend to and not what you don’t want!

Napoleon Hill pointed out, “First comes thought; then organization of that thought into ideas and plans; then transformation of those plans into reality. The beginning, as you will observe, is in your imagination.” Decide what you want and organize your thoughts.

Focus on creating it to the exclusion of all else. Hill pointed this out too, “The majority of the 10,000 people whom I have analyzed were not succeeding because they had too many irons in the fire. They knew how to do too many things and had not enough knowledge of any one particular thing.”

Stop trying to do too many things. Get in for the long haul. Short periods of duration only to quit, not only don’t get you there but interfere greatly in making it happen. Those who succeed focus, commit, and persist until they see it through. They keep the faith!

The Wright brothers, Edison, Henry Ford, the USA mission to put a man on the moon, Oprah Winfrey, Steven Jobs, Gandhi, Lady Gaga, Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Mary Kay Ash, all are people of great dedication and commitment. They did it and so can you when you stop dabbling and dive right in and keep with it until you make it happen. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Wake Up From The Trance You’ve Been Living!

“We need to wake up from trance and overcome limiting beliefs we’ve been hypnotized into believing from a young age. Waking up from trance is as important as going into trance. The hypnotic messages we received is that we’re less powerful than we are.

We need to realize we have choice. You can take charge of your life and live wonderfully different than you may have lived for years. If it’s incredible keep doing what you are doing. If it isn’t then you need to make some positive changes. Get it? It’s about waking up!

Each of us must wake up to our authentic self and our true potential. We’ve bought into victim mentality for too long. It’s time to take charge of your thinking, feelings and behaviors so you start getting far better results! If you don’t you’ll keep getting what you’ve got!

Take charge and discover your potential for creating a wonderful future vastly different from the less than glorious past you’ve lived. This decision to act is before you every moment. If you haven’t made it yet, you still can. If you hesitate all you do is delay. Stop waiting. Decide now. Start creating your best life ever today. Will you? I hope so. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

How Long Will You Tolerate Your Pain And Struggles?

“Your day to day reality is what you make it. Some people expect others to make their day for them. They hope and pray things change or that someone does something to make their experience different. They put all their eggs in an external basket. It doesn’t work.

It doesn’t work and it doesn’t work that way. You are either in charge or not in charge. You decide which it is! Either you sail and steer your boat or your boat drifts. You must harness the wind or paddle your boat to get anywhere. You chart the course and work to get there.

Some people make difficulties a bigger deal than necessary. Difficulties help you grow if you learn from them. The Wright Brothers experimented with flying until they flew. Once they flew, they improved on it. They did what they had to do to get airborne!

If You Want Things To Change You Must Change Some Things

You must too. If you aren’t in charge of you, someone or something else is. You won’t like that. That’s for sure. If you want things to change you must change some things. If you do what you have always done, you get the same results. Nothing changes that way.

Life is all about change and learning to make things better. We evolve and improve. You can extract yourself from poverty to make yourself wealthier. You can get fit and become healthier. You can live happier. You can accomplish just about anything once you decide to.

You can, and most importantly, should activate a powerful winning attitude to be happier, healthier and wealthier. Stop being a victim of circumstance and become their master. You may not be able to change things, but you can change your response to circumstances!

Do What You Always Did – You’ll Keep Getting The Same Results

There are many reasons to learn this! If you do nothing, nothing will change. Tomorrow will be similar or just like today. If you take action and learn to improve on you, then your future can become more of what you want it to be. It’s up to you. Do nothing, nothing improves.

The choice is yours. The questions is how long, and at how much expense to you, are you going to wait to do it? The longer you wait the more it costs you. It’s as if you left a pile of money on the table and walked away.

Worse yet, you never get back the time you lost. Today, is your moment of decision. Every single day you’re offered the choice. How long have you refused the opportunity? How long have you lost out? When will you act in your own best interests? I hope you decide to move forward now. You know the saying. “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.” Do it and then truly celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
