How Successful People Handle Stress And Disappointment Pt 4

“Because happy, successful people make these practices habits, they’re more successful than those who don’t. It isn’t the location that matters. Two similar businesses on the same corner can have very different results. One does all the same marketing, spending, and delivers value as the other but one is wildly successful and the other is not. Research has determined the difference is mindset. It IS attitude. One feels successful while the other struggles and doesn’t. Get this!

It’s important to activate your attitude and enjoy the good feelings. The most important part of feeling gratitude are the feelings. The most important part of visualizing your future and what you want it to be are the feelings that accompany your visualization. Emphasize and feel the feelings. Enjoy them. Savor them. Accentuate them and linger with them. The more you feel good and the longer you feel good the better overall. The conscious mind is the rational, logical mind.

It is smaller and has less to do. What it does is important but pales in comparison to the subconscious mind which is the emotional mind and governs so much more than the conscious mind. To program the subconscious, to train it to work for you, you must speak its language. That language is not words. NO, no, no, no, no! It is the language of feelings and emotions. What you feel informs the subconscious of how you are and what you want. It will produce more of the same.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Develop successful habits that support you. I repeat, because the happy and successful businesspeople made these practices habits, they were more successful than those who did not. They were and are better able to keep going. They don’t give up but handle and navigate challenges and disappointments more productively than others who don’t. Because they keep a daily regimen for being positive, happy, healthy they work better and enjoy life more. You can, if you will.

As you develop and sustain successful habits your life takes on a wonderful new sense of meaning. Everything becomes much easier and more enjoyable. The tough times don’t necessarily go away but you handle them better and get through them quicker because you are much more resourceful. It is your day today! How are you going to spend it? I ask this because your attitude WILL determine your altitude. Remember, research asserts and demonstrates that attitude is the number one predictor for success in all areas of your life. Activate your attitude. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

The 10th Great Law: The Law Of Change

“The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again but expecting different results. Because, if you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got. The Law of Change states history will keep repeating itself unless and until you learn your lessons and change your life. It is about trust. Realize and trust the Universe gives you what you need. If there are changes occurring it means you are growing. Get this.

Changes means any or all changes. It doesn’t mean just the changes we want, hope for or expect. Good and those we consider not-so-good, our problems and hardships, obstacles and difficulties create a new path for you so you can create a new and better future. How? By creating a better you. You become your authentic self. The law means doing and undoing so you discover who you really are.

Therefore, history will repeat itself until you learn from the experiences and do something different to end the repetition. You end the cycle and discover freedom. You discover who you are. When YOU are different, you think, speak and act differently so you get different results. The law of change is about the opportunity to become the best version of yourself. We are creatures of habit and patterns. We have routines.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Patterns and habits repeat until you do something different to change them. History repeating is a huge sign that you are going down the same path. It’s an opportunity to awaken and choose differently. To get a different outcome you must be responsible for changing the outcome. You have choices. To change the pattern, you must first recognize the pattern and then change it.

The same experiences or lessons come up again and again until you notice and do something about it. Keep in mind, insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different result. Change something. Change your mindset, your feelings, what you say to yourself. Change your habits and behaviors. Change your environment, where you go. Change relationships. Change your reactions. ‘If it is to be, it is up to me!’

You have the power and the responsibility to choose. You’ve that same power and responsibility to shape your present and future reality. Let go of the past. Stop worrying about the future. Be responsible for your reality. Hold yourself accountable. It is the opportunity to change for the better. It’s the opportunity to initiate the change and be the victor rather than the victim. Be in charge of changes instead of changes being in charge of you.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

History repeats until you learn the lesson and do something about it. It is cause and effect. If you’re continually seeing the same themes, patterns and cycles play out in your life again and again, if they repeat themselves, stop, step back, take a pause, get into neutral and ask, ‘what lesson do I need to learn?’ Is there anything I’m attached to, beliefs I could change, old stories I should change or update or connections I could let go of?

Ask yourself. Because if you are feeling it somewhere within you already know the answer. That’s why you feel that way. That’s why the lessons repeat. It’s the opportunity to let go, release, forgive and forget, learn the lesson and move on so you can start a new path. Change is scary for most people, but you can get through it and experience a wonderful new you filled with and experiencing joy and fulfillment. Be grateful for this opportunity.

Recognize it and embrace it. It is here to help you be better. Most people resist the hardship and problem lessons and stay stuck in the revolving patterning. Recognize, realize and release. The way out is through. Change can be scary sometimes, but when you embrace change and start on a new path, you open yourself to experiencing genuine joy, fulfillment, and growth. When troubles come, realize they’re a doorway to a better future.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

There is something you must know, learn and do to open the door. Until you identify what you must do differently, it will repeat again. Think, feel, speak and do it differently and you create a different opportunity. If you’re stuck in a seemingly endless loop THAT IS THE SIGN! If things start changing or falling apart IT IS THE SIGN! All of it is a good sign that you can and may already have taken some positive and significant steps.

For the new to become reality the old must go. The closet must be emptied to make room for the new stuff. You are going through a house cleaning. Things break down to free you from the old habits and past. New stories ahead. Change doesn’t change you. You change yourself by what you learn going through changes. What conclusions you draw, what labels you use, what stories you tell matter. For you to change, you must change.

Wishing, wanting, hoping, worrying about the future or regretting the past won’t change you. For you to change you MUST shift what you are thinking, feeling, saying and doing. Different actions create different results. Positive change will happen. I repeat, positive change will happen but only when you have actually changed. Learn from your mistakes, learn from the lessons and apply what you have learned. Otherwise, the lesson will come back.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

If you don’t change it you are allowing history to repeat itself. A change will only happen if you have changed it to learn from your past mistake and work effectively on it. If you don’t learn the lesson, you are allowing your history to repeat. When you get it, the cycle can end. If you seem to be in an endless cycle, stop and reflect. Get into neutral and discover what you might be missing. Don’t blame, change. Forgive, release and let go.

Make new decisions. Think new thoughts. from new positive beliefs and habits. Suffering can end. ‘Transform yourself by the renewing of the mind.’ Discover the peace that passes all understanding. remember the saying, ‘this is the day the lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it.’ That means all of it. Not some of it. The good and not-so-good because all of it is for your benefit. BUT you must discover this truth for yourself. Get it? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

ATTITUDE IS THE NUMBER ONE PREDICTOR OF SUCCESS IN ALL AREAS OF YOUR LIFE!

Why You Should Give To Others Unconditionally

“When your goal is to help another feel blessed, to heal and to prosper and you’re not looking for any return your motive is pure. You want to help another just because you want to help. When you give to others this way, when you give unconditionally you not only benefit them, but you benefit you. Because your focus is not on what you can get but on what you can give. Your care is for them not for you. You open yourself up for the universe to gift you.

Giving is an incredible gift YOU give to you! When you give this way, you are open to allow others to give to you too. Because your care is for them and not expecting a return on your kindness, you open yourself to be gifted in whatever way it manifests. If it manifests instantly that’s wonderful. If nothing immediately happens that’s wonderful too. Everything is perfect. Giver’s get. Not because they want a return, but because they give.

Give unconditionally. Today, practice graciously giving and graciously receiving. Allow yourself to remain open and receptive. Let others give to you. Find delight in the smallest of things. Celebrate being open. Know good things are coming your way even though you may not be able to see them. Live in faith. Give and allow. Practice the Golden Rule. Think the best and do the best for others. Celebrate them. Go the extra mile in helping people.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Rejoice in their good fortune when good things happen for them. Celebrate everything! Know that good things will always come your way without demanding anything. Practice gratitude. Really feel grateful. Discover this inner joy and bask in it. As you do these things you become more of these things. You transform! You become what you think about most during your day. Your life can completely transform. You will find yourself more blessed than you might imagine. You will heal and you will prosper! The results of your thoughts and actions can be miraculous. Delight in this day. Celebrate everything” Rex Sikes

If You Want To Feel Great, Feel Grateful!

“Inside every adversity is a seed of equal opportunity! In every moment, good and not so good, there IS much to celebrate and enjoy. Look for, and find, whatever it is, no matter how tiny. Validate that and celebrate. If you want to feel great, feel grateful! When you practice feeling true gratitude, the results can be profound! What Is Gratitude? Celebration and gratitude unlock the door for greater opportunity and benefit.

You can feel grateful. You can feel thankful. You can appreciate your circumstances knowing all things can work together for good. Gratitude means that instead of complaining, whining or blaming we focus on, and express and feel good about all we have. Whether little or lots we are appreciative. Gratitude means we appreciate the people, the circumstances, the situations and events in our lives and the things we have.

Instead of thinking about what we don’t have or should have, we focus on the good, even in the bad moments. We manage our thoughts and feelings and as a result our psychological health improves. A leading researcher in gratitude study, Robert Emmons, confirms, after multiple studies, that the practice of gratitude increases happiness and reduces depression. Not only do we feel better, but we also stop feeling not-so-good. Get it?

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Other research concludes it improves resilience in people and raises self-esteem. It reduces aggression and helps increase empathy. We not only feel better psychologically but physically. Physical health Improves. People who practice gratitude tend to be more relaxed, have more enjoyable feelings and happier memories. They are less envious and less materialistic. They are more optimistic and less self-centered.

The practice of feeling grateful reduces toxic chemicals in the body and increases the experience of overall more wellbeing. People feel less stressed and overcome trauma more easily. Grateful people experience fewer aches and pains and are sick less often. They have increased energy and are apt to exercise more. They take better care of themselves, and they sleep better. All of which contributes to longevity.

It was determined that sleep comes more easily to those who spend time counting their blessings prior to bed. People who wrote down things they are grateful for had longer and improved your sleep. All of this helps your Relationships improve for a variety of reasons. People who feel and express gratitude tend to be more social and develop nurturing friendships. Thanking others, even strangers, tends to lead to more opportunities.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

People who were grateful and appreciative recognized and accepted their own, and others, accomplishments more readily. They are kinder. This not only means happier and healthier with better relationships but that career results also improve. Grateful people tend to experience better career success. They’re more likely to make better decisions and accomplish their goals. They network more and use their time more wisely.

They are more productive. People who are more grateful tend to generate more income. None of this should surprise you if you are practicing gratitude. People who are grateful experience positive transformation and more happiness. The important areas in one’s life all showed improvement. These benefits were tied to keeping a gratitude journal. Do you practice gratitude? Do you have a gratitude journal? If not, start.

The simple act of writing down what you’re thankful for and what makes you feel good has profound effects. The results, or the benefits, come to those who take even just five minutes to concentrate on their blessings. Take some time each day to feel grateful. Stop everything else and focus on what you feel thankful for. It’s worth it when you do! The more people express true gratitude the more people experience greater happiness. If you want to feel more satisfied with life, develop an attitude of gratitude. It’s easy! Just count your blessings and have a beautiful day. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

ATTITUDE IS THE NUMBER ONE PREDICTOR OF SUCCESS IN ALL AREAS OF YOUR LIFE!

The Third Great Law : Humility

“As we approach the concept of being a leader AND the Los Angeles Tribune Leadership Week May 1-7, which I am proud to help produce and host, I bring attention to the 3rd Universal Law of Karma. These laws are outstanding principles that we can use to help improve ourselves and our world. The 1st law is Cause and Effect. It states, ‘what you sow, you reap. This is important.

As a leader, what you put out, returns to you. It’s why I say when you throw a boomerang a boomerang returns, not a teacup. So, always put out your best. Be the most loving, caring and kind. Be compassionate. Stop wanting and wishing and feeling frustrated, fearful, doubtful or desperate, because when you focus on those, and lack you create more of the same. Stop.

Only entertain the best thoughts, feelings, words, actions and practices. Because what you sow you reap. The 2nd Law is Creation wants you to understand that behind every creation IS a creator. Your current and future, and past circumstances are the result of what you created. What you sow you reap. If you want positive circumstances, you must think and take positive action.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Nothing happens on its own, without a creator or a creative process. Think, feel, speak, and act your very best to create the very best and to navigate the tough times. Understand you are 100%. The 3rd Law is Humility. This is an important law. They all are. Understand this.

Understand that more can be said about each law. I share different aspects in other posts. I am presenting a lot in a nutshell each time. Going deeper into the laws is a fruitful exploration. The great law finds more explanation in Newton’s Laws. For every cause there is an equal and opposite effect and for every effect there is a cause. Ancients knew this long ago. Study these.

The Law of Humility tells us you and I create our current reality. It is said in the other two laws as well, but this law encourages us to accept it. We caused things to happen through our thinking, feelings, words, choices, actions, practices and energy. It isn’t about others or the circumstances, it is understanding and accepting your role in the creation process so you can change it. Get this.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

To change something, you need to first become aware of what needs changing. Then YOU must accept it. To change the circumstances, you are in you must first accept the role you played in creating them. By being willing to accept your role you remove the blinders, the blind spots so you can see what you must change to create the life you want. Embrace your role as the creator!

The Law of Humility encourages you and me to be humble. Be humble and understand that you are the cause and the creator of your circumstances. Understand that these laws reflect on each other. They are interconnected. Your current situation and your future ones are the result of your past or present thoughts, feelings, words, actions and practices. Own your results.

You must be humble ENOUGH to be able to see and realize and appreciate your part in the process. Evaluate, reflect on who you are and what you do that creates what you experience. Don’t blame others or seek excuses. Be humble. Learn from your mistakes. Mistakes are part of the process. When experimenting and you don’t get the results you want, you adjust. Get it.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

We succeed through failure and hardship when we understand the process. When we don’t get frustrated and quit. Understand success is a series of failures. To learn from mistakes, you have to be willing and able to accept them. Some can’t yet. They blame and excuse. You can succeed more readily when you first learn from your mistakes. Be humble enough to accept this.

When it comes to being a leader, be humble. It is not about you. It’s about the outcomes or results. It’s about the people who gather around. Be humble enough to give credit to the team who helps. Remember a rising tide floats the boat and everyone in it. It’s not just the captain who should get credit. Give credit. Uplift. Edify. Give recognition and praise. Encourage and nurture.

Seek harmony, cooperation and collaboration. A visionary on a mission need those who can embrace the mission. They, even more than the leader, will be the people who help make that happen because the leader can’t do it all alone. However, the leader sets the tone and the vibe. Leadership is top down and if you want exemplary boots on the ground be an example of it.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Walk the talk and talk the walk. Be congruent. Be approve reproach. What you do it the light, onstage, do in the darkness, backstage too. Be compassionate, kind, caring and helpful. BE accountable when the team or anyone makes mistakes. After all they are in your care and following your lead. Assume accountability and responsibility. Don’t evade it or tack it to others.

Create an experience where all can grow and flourish. I’m fond of saying leaders never say they are a leader. That is hubris. Others may call them leaders. And remember it is about them and the results it is NOT ALL ABOUT YOU! Not only share the spotlight but stop talking so much about you! A leader is a tour guide. The tour guide points out pitfalls and points of interest for others.

The tour guide doesn’t talk about the tour guide but about what you see, hear, feel and experience on the tour. The bus driver doesn’t talk about the bus driver. So many people today blow their horns because they believe for others to follow, they must know who you are. Remember, you are known by your actions more than your words. Actions speak louder. Get it.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Stop bragging to try to influence. Be an example and the influencer will flow. Speak less. Listen more. Understand and help people solve problems and move ahead without it being all about you and how you are different and save them. That’s boring. It’s overdone today and it is boring. Jesus didn’t brag about feeding the 5 thousand or healing and helping others. He just did it.

People spread his message. He didn’t post his picture on billboards. Get it. Be humble and stay humble. Why, because it helps you be in touch with who you authentically are and informs your mission. If you get egotistical and unrealistic about you, your vision will become confused, your mission will get sidetracked and the results you get won’t be satisfying to anyone but maybe you.

Stop bragging. Add value. Let the others do the bragging for you AND the will if you are authentic and worth it. If your primary desire is to add value to them, to uplift and edify to help them overcome limitations and break free they will be your press agent. Word of mouth will spread. Concentrate on helpful actions and outcomes and let them sing the praises and spread the word.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

No one likes a braggart. People do like people who walk their talk and who are genuine and genuinely helpful. It’s less important and fulfilling to brag than to get incredible results that others brag about and share the news with others. Stay humble. Stay humble enough to learn from mistakes and adjust so you create the outcomes for yourself and others you desire.

After all, cause and effect are the law, and you are a creator. Stop creating dog crap and create diamonds and good for all. If you are interested, I have a 3 part video series on YouTube reflecting on leadership as encouraged by Napoleon Hill. It is a casual presentation by me on the traits and qualities that make one a good leader. I recorded it outdoors. Videos are 20 -30 min.

From it you can learn, embrace and practice the principles to become a better leader BECAUSE to lead others you should first know how to lead yourself. You can watch it here. I posted the 1st of 3.

Can It Be Any Clearer?

“‘The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.’ – Marcus Aurelius. Can it get any clearer? Do nothing and things remain as you think they are. Change your thoughts and everything transforms. Why? Because you transformed your thoughts, YOU transformed. When you are different, you see, speak and do things differently. Seek to be optimistic and positive. Be filled with gratitude. Appreciate and celebrate all things. Your happiness depends on it. Everything transforms when you can celebrate everything! SO, celebrate everything! “Rex Sikes

The 1st Great Law: Power Is Yours To Use: Cause And Effect

“The First Great Law: Cause and Effect states whatever the energy and thoughts, whether positive or negative, you put out to the Universe you get back. Whether it is good or bad is up to who you are and what you broadcast. This law says to get what you want, you must embody those things. It is Be it, Do it, Have it. Most people have it the other way around and are ineffective.

Who and What you are determines what you do which determines the results you get. Science points out for every cause there is an effect and for every effect a cause. It isn’t a matter of if, it is a matter of when. If you throw out a boomerang, a boomerang comes back to you. Not a teacup. You get what you vibrate and broadcast. Therefore, feel grateful, optimistic and positive.

Your feelings determine what you get. Your feelings are your vibration. To get great ROI vibrate the best, most wonderful and postive feelings. Live in gratitude and joy. Appreciate what you have no matter the amount. Feel eager and enthused. Be high-vibe happy and joyful. Don’t rain on your own parade by wallowing in negativity. Uplift and edify yourself. Expect the best.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Radiate these feelings and more good comes back to you. NOT only that, but the more you feel this way, the more you begin to develop the habit of feeling this way. Soon it becomes WHO you are and what you do. BUT, to develop the habit you must repeat it correctly, frequently, consistently, for long enough. It’s simple and it is completely up to you.

Do it and things change. Do nothing and nothing changes. I will apply an old quote. Forget what it’s about and understand what it means. ‘The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing’ Nothing will change if you do nothing or if you dabble or are haphazard. If you want change you must change. Get it? Be consistent. Develop the good habits that serve you. From within to without. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

“How To Become Alert To Opportunities

“How do you become alert to opportunities around you to advance your career and make your life more of what you want it to be? How do you stimulate your imagination? How can you direct your attention to discover what’s available you may have been missing? You don’t want to miss out, do you? Napoleon Hill had a precise method that works. It works wonderfully well.

It’s easy to do and will bring you great insight and reward. To benefit you must put it into practice. If you dedicate yourself to this method, it will work for you too. Hill stated, ‘I know that if I need my own mind to be opened up to receive opportunity, the best way in the world to open it up is to start looking around to see how many other people I can help.‘ What? you say. Stay with me now.

Magic can and will happen when you take the focus off yourself and your needs and begin to wonder how you can more fully benefit others. How so? You get out of your own way. You stop thinking in your old habitual ways about you, your life, your limitations and your resources. When you begin to get curious about how you can help other people you open new doors.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

You aren’t thinking the same old ways because you are thinking about others. Get this! If you want your life to change you must change some things in your life. If you always do what you always did you will always get what you always got. You must be transformed by the renewing of your mind. You must shift your focus. You must start thinking in new and different ways. Get it?

Look at what others might need and what you can do to fulfill their needs. When you take the focus off yourself it opens your mind, your brain to travel in new directions. Guess what. You actually find ways to help. When you help others benefit, you open the door for those others to reciprocate. BUT you must do it with a clean heart, without seeking any compensation in return.

Because when you do it for THEM, it will come back to you. If you’re trying to get something by doing ‘them a favor’ they won’t be receptive to it. Why not? Because most people can innately tell if you are genuine. AND because your focus hasn’t shifted! It’s still on you and your needs. It’s only disguised by thinking you’re helping others when you are still only out for yourself. Nothing’s changed.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

When you go the ‘extra mile’ for others, for no reason at all, they know it. They get it! They start feeling they want to return good to you. You attract back what you put out. When you seek to benefit others without return, they seek to benefit you in the same or similar manner. The Law of Reciprocity states people feel obliged to give back to others.

That can happen in the form of a behavior, gift or service they have first received. The Law of Attraction states what you put out returns to you. The Law of Vibration states everything is in motion. Harmonious frequencies sync up. Even the scriptures point out that we will be judged the same way we’ve judged others. Matthew 7:2 implies reciprocity is a norm or a rule. The Law of Cause and Effect means you should be the cause. Go First!

Act first. The cause ALWAYS precedes the effect. Shift your attention to others. Even if not everyone reciprocates, if some take your help and do nothing, you benefit from exercising your mind. You thought differently. You benefit by opening your heart and helping others in need. You shifted your focus to get out of your own way. Your imagination is piqued because you’re looking for needs to be filled. Win/Win!

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

It’s winning all the way around. You’ll win more with new awareness because sometimes you need to take a rest. Take a break and let go. You can get further faster if you’re not always pushing and trying to accelerate things. Balance is required. It is give and receive. Stop, release, Let go of the attention you have kept focused on yourself in the same old ways. To see and experience new things you must go and do new and different things.

Take a different route. Change your focus, attention, energy and efforts. Change it up to get change. Give to receive BUT always with a pure heart and intention and you’ll discover the magic. Your mind will open to possibilities, resources and opportunities you’ve not noticed. You’ll see and experience new things. Why? Because you aren’t thinking the same old way. Think differently. Focus differently. Get it? When you do, you’ll wake yourself up to the newness and goodness that always surrounds you. You’ll feel better too. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Ask Yourself, “What Do I Believe About Myself?

“Ask yourself, ‘What do I believe about myself? Who do I think I am?’ The answers matter. Whatever you believe about yourself determines what you think is possible. The beliefs you hold determine whether you are happy and successful or not. You feel uplifted and confident, or you don’t. Understand this. Whatever you hold to be true about you affects you. Who you think you are causes what you do and don’t.

The feelings you feel come from who you think you are. What you say and how you speak about yourself, and the world comes from who and what you believe yourself to be. Most people believe the world, circumstances, events and others hold power over them. They say, ‘I’m unhappy because he or she did this to me. I’m a failure because I never got my shot. The bank won’t approve my loan so I can’t do anything.’

Those are thoughts. Your beliefs are thoughts you repeatedly think to yourself. They may not be true, but they can hold you back if you let them. They’re what you say to yourself. They’re how you explain yourself and the world. AGAIN, they’re only thoughts. Here’s the big deal. You are the thinker. You think thoughts you came to accept about yourself while you were growing up. Then you looked for evidence of them.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Through experience you either validated them or dismissed them, let them go and decided to think something else instead. Many find validation for the limitations they accepted. If you thought differently, you could discover other ‘truths’. If you thought, you can instead of can’t it would’ve made a difference. DO you get this? Thinking makes it so. Saying it is so and seeing it as so, makes it that way.

What we hold in our mind determines how far we travel just as how much gas we have in our tank determines how far we can go. What you believe about yourself saves you or sinks you as Reverend Ike would say. AND again, here’s the thing. A thought isn’t anything but an electro-chemical impulse interpreted in the language you use. You think, ‘I am fat.’ Then you think, ‘I shouldn’t think that.’ Thoughts on thoughts.

You feel bad for being fat. Then on top of it you feel bad for feeling bad. Get this. Your inner critic, voice, monologue is just a kind of automatic tape loop that goes on endlessly. You may never be able to turn it off. However, you can decide what to listen to just as you can choose what to listen to on your radio. You are the thinker. You are the one who can choose. You may not have known this, but it’s true AND it’s up to you.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Instead of giving your power away to others, circumstances and events, take it back. Instead of thinking you’re a bad person for having certain thoughts, decide to think better thoughts. Think you are a good person. The only reason you don’t yet is because what you think is a habit. You think the same things day by day. You think the same thoughts over and over depending on what’s going on. They’re habitual.

Learn to think differently and you’ll feel differently. If you take the same path every day you see the same things. Take a different path and you see different things. Think different thoughts and you’ll feel different. Accept responsibility for thinking your thoughts. Blaming others, your past, parents or circumstances will just keep you stuck and not able to change. Decide to become choosy about thinking and think differently.

Decide to only think the best, most positive and optimistic thoughts about yourself and you’ll feel different. Feeling different will cause you to say and do different things and get different results. Want better results? Think better thoughts! Listen to what you say and how you say it and you’ll learn what you believe to be true. Your beliefs are expressed constantly. Your opinions and what you value are clues. as are your rules.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Ask yourself what you believe about yourself and who you think you are. If you don’t like the answer, change it. Whatever the answer was or is, IS causing you to suffer or enjoy your life. Ask yourself the question frequently and you’ll discover your assets and limitations. Beliefs aren’t true or not. They’re just useful. They either serve to make you feel better and do things or they don’t serve you.

Whatever problems you have or think you have come from your habitual thought patterns. Thought patterns are the automatic repetitive tape loops. Thought patterns can be changed. All habits can be changed. Believe it or not. BUT what you believe about your ability to change thought patterns determines the kind of experience you may go through. Get it? What you think is true, is true for you. Easy or hard? you decide!

They uplift or sink you. If you think you can or think you can’t, you’re correct. Said Henry Ford. He also said, I never let what I can’t do prevent me from doing what I can. Think about these statements. He says, don’t let your thoughts rule you. It’s important to understand. You ought to rule your thoughts. Whatever you believe determines how you will act. How you act determines your results. Start choosing to think better.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Understand that’s who you are. You’re the chooser! Stop acting, being and living like a victim. Take the reins and ride the horse. Tell the horse where you want it to go. Don’t let the horse decide. Don’t let automatic, habitual auditory tape loops or internal repetitive negative imagery decide for you. YOU decide. You take charge. You speak it and see it as it ought to be. What you believe and speak IS what you get! Get it?

Do this exercise to clean house. Throw out the old junk and make room for the new. Stop giving your power away. Stop blaming others or yourself. Start living better by thinking and feeling better. What you believe and say about yourself creates your heaven or hell. What you think about you bring about. Choose what you want to think and feel. You choose which road you want to travel on to get somewhere. YOU. YOU choose!

Understand whatever you choose to believe is true for YOU. It is your subjective truth. We’re not talking about objective, external truths. That’s a different discussion. What is true for you IS true for you. Whatever ever you choose to believe and there’s millions and millions of choices becomes YOUR truth. It’s your truth about you, others and the world. YOUR truth determines what you find in your world and what you miss.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Remember, YOU are the chooser and maker of your truth. You don’t say the road chose you. Be the boss of your thoughts. If you will, you’ll discover how much more wonderful life can be. Life gets better and better the more you love, laugh, learn and celebrate. The more grateful you are, the more incredible everything becomes. Want a good life? think good thoughts. Want more money? Think prosperously! Get it?

Want to be happy? Think happy thoughts. Want to feel peaceful? Think peaceful thoughts. Want love in your life? Think more loving thoughts. Decide what you want and think it into being. From within to without. Decide what you deserve. You are worthy. You can do this. It can begin to immediately change when you change it. Your problems no longer need to be your problems. They can be former problems. Let them go. Change your thinking (your beliefs) for the better. Do this. Rock it! Read ‘Life On Your Terms’ for much, much more. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Stop Whining, Complaining, Blaming, Excusing! My Money Manifesto # 13

“Are you tired of missing out? Bored with ho-hum. Do you want more? Would you like more good things to happen for you? Do you want more love, friends, fun times, or money to spend? Might you be interested in feeling happier, healthier, less stressed, more freedom? Understand this. If you want more but aren’t getting what you want, it’s because you’re focused, even unintentionally, on the crap.

You end up a crap magnet by intentionally and unintentionally allowing less-than-glorious thoughts, feelings and words leak from you. You attract the very things and feelings you don’t want by thinking, feeling, and speaking about what you don’t want. Whether it’s a cold and poor health, your discord with others or lack of money and time to do what you desire. Your complaining and blaming are the cause.

If you are focused more on what you don’t want, more of your time BUT you wish, hope and pray things improve UNDERSTAND THIS. It won’t get better until you stop what you are presently doing and begin directing your thoughts to who and what kind of person you want to be. Change your self-image. Change your inner pictures. Become the person who finds the good, the optimistic and the positive to express.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

Put a guard before your lips and mind. Stop speaking about problems, worries, fears, poor health, lack and frustrations. Eliminate the negative. Accentuate the positive. Seek and find the good. Emphasize the good. Your thoughts determine your feelings, your words, your actions and your results. Stop letting results you don’t want determine your actions, words, feelings and thoughts. Manage your mindset.

‘Every thought therefore is a cause and every condition an effect; for this reason it is absolutely essential that you control your thoughts so as to bring forth only desirable conditions. — All power is from within, and is absolutely under your control; it comes through exact knowledge and by the voluntary exercises of exact principles.’ Charles Haanel

Every thought IS a cause and every effect a condition. Be the victor by being the cause. Stop being a victim by allowing conditions to rule you. YOU decide. It is from your being that doing arises. What type of person are you? Direct your attention towards who you want to become and become that person. Then you will do, speak and have right. Remember, where real lasting power comes from. From within you.

DEVELOP THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE, MINDSET AND BELIEFS TO TRANSFORM YOURSELF

‘Direct your effort to a realization of the mental resources, always at your command, from which all real and lasting power comes. Persist in this practice until you come to a realization of the fact that there can be no failure in the accomplishment of any proper object in life if you but understand your power and persist in your object, because the mind-forces are ever ready to lend themselves to a purposeful will, in the effort to crystallize thought and desire into actions, events and conditions.’ Charles Haanel

You always have the mental resources and power at your command IF you will only persist in the practice UNTIL you finally realize there is never any failure. ANY thoughts you have, especially emotionalized and repeated, crystalizes into actions, events and conditions. ANY thoughts. So, choose your thoughts. Direct your thoughts. How? Become the person in charge of your thoughts. BE it. Do it.

Have it. We become what we think about most frequently. Stop complaining and start appreciating! Get this. Express ONLY the good! Become good! Do the good and you’ll have the good. It can’t get much plainer or simpler. Emotionalize, feel the good feelings of the good thoughts. Feel the love. Feel gratitude. Feel the appreciation repeated, consistently for long enough and you become it. Understand this and YOU transform. More next time. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
