Live As A Victor Not A Victim

“Keep on going. As you move forward you’ll get feedback for when you go astray. This is an incredible opportunity so don’t miss it or waste it. Many complain and feel defeated when things don’t go the way they hoped but it’s a great opportunity to make corrections!

12. Steer back to center, whenever you need to. Be in charge of your thoughts, feelings and actions. Live as a victor, not a victim. Be glad you have a feedback mechanism that signals you to be flexible. The system with the greatest flexibility actually runs the show. It’s you!

13. Persist. Never quit. Adjust your plans, be flexible, but keep going. You will get there. If you give up and throw in the towel it is over. As long as you keep moving forward you can get there. The records of history is filled with those who didn’t give up. Those who did, aren’t.

Learn To Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

Those who quit are forgotten. Those who prevailed until they broke through are remembered and celebrated. The list is long of those who succeeded but not nearly long enough if it doesn’t include you. Manage your thoughts and feelings. Steel your will. Persist.

14. Practice the Golden Rule. Think positively. Not just for yourself but about others. Think the best of yourself, others and circumstances. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Treat others well even if they don’t do likewise. You do it. You go first!

What you put out there you get back. Like attracts like. Make it a practice to only think thoughts and speak words that bless, heal and prosper yourself and others. Uplift and edify. Think optimistically and positively. Keep your mind focused on the good. Think ‘I can.’

Learn To Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

Expect the best of yourself, others and circumstances. Energy flows where your attention goes. If you aren’t thinking the best thoughts, feeling the best feelings and behaving the best for self and others what is the alternative? Get it? DO these things and your life will change. Make these a habit and you’ll get your goals and make your dreams come true. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Criticism Or Praise? Asks Jospeh Gordon-Levitt: Here’s His Answer

“Actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt recently asked which you’d prefer, criticism or praise? ‘Would you rather be unable to hear compliments or unable to hear criticism?’ He asked. Then he answered in a video which I share below. Just click the link.

My answer is feedback I need for correction. Praise not so much. I don’t need a swelled head. While it’s good to receive compliments, it’s more useful to be able to correct behaviors when necessary. Having a good and trusted source for feedback is most desirable!

Both are good and necessary at correct times. Wisdom is knowing the right time and how to deliver criticism in a way it can be heard, understood and embraced without upsetting the recipient. It’s also good to be able to deliver a sincere compliment so it can be received.

CLICK TO WATCH JOSEPH GORDON-LEVITT ON CRITICISM

Watch the video. I think it is good and includes elements important in communicating well with others. Be constructive and be specific. The same is true about a compliment. Be specific, not vague. ‘That color blue is a great wardrobe choice. You’ve great matching skills.”

As opposed to ‘You look nice.’ Learn to use the ‘feedback sandwich’. It’s most useful. Begin with a compliment or praise, insert a constructive, specific critique. End with a compliment. ‘You did a nice job, looks great. You might want to outline it in black, but you did great.’

Get it? Compliment, feedback, compliment makes it easier for the other person to accept, understand, and be open to making the changes you suggest. They may not. They need not but you won’t have offended them by offering suggestions. Learn this. It helps!

How To Get People To Do What You Want Without Begging

To get along with others understand what is most important to them. Learn how they like to be approached, listened to, spoken to and treated. Understand what makes them tick and you’ll be far more influential. It pays to learn how to do this. Watch and listen!

If you want people to listen give them your full, undivided attention and respect first. My motto is, ‘go first!’ You give your attention and respect then they are more likely to reciprocate with theirs. Never ask for that which you aren’t willing to give first! GO FIRST!

Get this! Don’t expect others to do what you won’t. If you want love, respect, honesty, fun, enjoyment give yours first. ‘Remember, when you throw a boomerang out a boomerang returns. Not a teacup.’ You get back what you put out. It’s basic law of attraction. Get it?

How To Get People To Do What You Want Without Nagging

You make life and getting along with others much easier by making some simple changes inside you. Change your thinking for the better and your entire life can change for the better. This means you must go first. If you want it, you must do whatever it legally takes to make it yours. Don’t sit and wait. Claim it. That’s why I keep reminding you to celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

You Must Go Through Hardship And Here’s Why!!

If You Are So Enlightened How Can You Be Critical?

“People ask me, ‘if you are so enlightened and positive how can you be critical of certain politicians or the actions of some people?’ The short answer is everything will work out. AND We’ve an opportunity to learn from mistakes. The thing that can’t be undone is death.

Your death, mine and our loved ones. We have two choices: harm people or help people. I am not a fan of Zero-Sum, win at all cost and crush the opponent, thinking. I believe in the basic goodness of humans. Positive thinking means we can handle whatever comes up.

We can handle it because we believe we can. We can learn how to handle it and we become more capable. This is positive thinking. Knowing we have the opportunity and ability to review, get feedback, adjust and continue. We can improve and be better.

There Is No Such Thing As Failure – Only Feedback

I think what’s going on today, and many of those who occupy the leadership positions, are symptoms of many broken things. We’ve a chaotic, confusing president whose actions have contributed to many deaths here and around the world. I think he is wrong.

IT IS WHAT IT IS BUT we have the opportunity to correct it. So, we must deal with what is not, and what might have been, and what will be. We can look at these and decide how we want to improve the situation. Then we must take right actions for the good of all.

I aim a spotlight. I say, ‘Hey, pay attention.’ I am the oil indicator on your dashboard. Nothing more. I try to get attention by being provocative and hope people will think for themselves. They don’t have to agree with me, But we shouldn’t wear blinders.

Correct Mistakes Along The Way – Adjust And Continue – Persist

We should want to open our eyes. Some do and will. Others don’t, but will. And some others won’t for a while. Ultimately, everyone wakes up, but maybe not this lifetime. So, meanwhile some sleep while others act. If we do nothing to oppose evil we are part of it.

You can act without getting caught in the mess. If you look down at a yardstick you see it has two ends and a lot of middle. You don’ have to be on either end, if you can remain at another vantage point. Then, call it as you see it. An alarm is used to alert and to warn.

Face it. If you had a booger hanging out of your nose, don’t you want someone to tell you know so you could take care of it and improve your appearance or condition? If you’re headed in the wrong direction, wouldn’t you hope someone would tell you? Hmmmm?

You Are Where Your Thoughts Have Brought You

If you see a car speeding down a road about to plummet over a cliff, might you not scream loudly at the driver to let them know the danger. You might do anything to get their attention. You might even yell, ‘HEY ASSHOLE!’ if you thought it would stop them.

That might get some driver angry enough to slam the brakes and want to come back and beat the crap out of you BUT you’d have helped them avert disaster. Anything less and they might just think you want something. Who knows for certain? But you would act to save a life, would you not? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

What To Do In Very Tough Times

“In times of challenge and crisis great opportunity exists. We could miss it if we don’t become aware. When challenged, when the apple cart is overturned, we may not know what to do. We may not have the tools to repair it. We may not know how yet. It seems bad.

But during times of hardship and crisis people come to the aid of each other. It’s at this time we discover our resourcefulness and our compassion for each other. During these times we learn what not to do, what isn’t working, and what to try next. It’s adjust and continue.

We experiment. We try. We fail. We get needed feedback about what we need to correct from failure. We adjust and go again. We keep adjusting until we find solutions. We evolve our thinking and our practices. We get better and work to improve the situation.

Skill Comes Of Doing – Success Comes From Taking Right Actions

We won’t, if we freak out. If we panic we may drown. Instead of lying back in the water and floating we thrash about and sink. We need to stay calm. Keep the faith that though times are tough we can get through them if we will keep attempting to. We can. We will!

We must focus on what we do that makes a difference. Never lose sight of that. Steps in the right direction eventually get us to our destination. In uncertain times we can find certainty if we remain calm and work together in harmony toward solutions. We can!

If we stay level-headed, keep the faith and believe we can make a difference, we will Positively work to make that a reality. Then we will always be moving forward, even during set backs. Attitude makes all the difference in the world. Manage your emotions.

The More We Do The More – The More We Can Do – Learn

If you think you can, or you think you can’t, you are correct! During times of adversity seeds of opportunity exist. During this time we can better learn how to learn and how to be prepared and how to face challenges positively with courage and grace. We can evolve ourselves. Let’s work to create a better person inside each of us and a better world to live in together. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

What Is Reflected Back Needs To Be Addressed

“We are all mirrors for and to each other. What is reflected back is what we need to address. Whether opportunity and blessing or hardship and skirmishes. Find the blessing, the love, the peace, the forgiveness and all good things contained within.

Others are mirrors for us and we are mirrors for them. The time for discovery is always now. When the student is ready the lesson or teacher appears. Whatever we face in life is what we need to address and learn from.

If there is more despair than joy we need to adjust. If there are more problems than solutions we need to learn from what is going on and make changes. Everything is feedback. Recognize it and you begin winning the game. Failure to become aware of this means you continue to miss out. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

There’s no such thing as redundancy. I repeat. There’s no such …

“It is a lie. There is no such thing as redundancy. I repeat. It is a lie. There is no such thing as redundancy. Okay, that may be a bad joke but the truth is we learn through repeating things. Everything we learn, we learn through repetition. It’s conditioning.

From rolling over as an infant, to tying our shoes, feeding ourselves, speaking, playing piano or computer games, reading and writing, doing mathematics, selling our products we have learned through repeated trial and error. We learned by repeating until we got it.

It is a process of trial and experimentation leading to correct practice. Getting real-life feedback and then correcting mistakes. Trying again or performing and then we repeat. Get more feedback. Correct, perform, feedback. Correct and repeat.

What We Want To Do With Ease We First Do With Diligence

We continuously make adjustments on the feedback .Heck, walking is a redundant process. Get it? As speakers and educators we learn we are to instruct our listeners this way: Tell them what you will tell them. Tell them. Then tell them what you told them.

Then they are to review what you told then and continue to review and add to it. Repeat it through time because this is the way we best learn. We need repetition to remember it and to wire in the thoughts, feelings and behaviors. Day and night are repetitive.

Fall in love with repetition and you will discover many nuances you miss by only visiting something once. Learn the way you naturally learn things instead of fighting the process and you will begin to move forward faster. Get it? Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Do This When It Sucks

“What do you do when life throws you a curve ball? Because it will, you know? It always does. You can wonder why and fret about it or you can do the best with what you got. You can roll with the punches. You can make lemonade out of lemons. Get it?

It’s up to you. Whenever challenged, facing problems or obstacles realize every situation is an opportunity to learn. You get feedback. Maybe, you need to love yourself more. Maybe you need to forgive yourself or somebody else. Maybe you need to try a little harder.

Maybe , you need to relax and let go. Maybe you need to learn something new. Smart up! Maybe you need to persist. Maybe you need to stop tolerating or allowing the bad and start focusing on the good. Any situation, challenge, block that arises is an opportunity.

Anything that sucks is an opportunity to learn a new way of doing things. Learn to let go into marvelous new ways of being, stop repeating the same old mistakes, Make new decisions that assist you in powerfully transforming your life. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

The Imagination Has To Be Muscular

“Here’s an important quote: “The writer must have a good imagination to begin with, but the imagination has to be muscular, which means it must be exercised in a disciplined way, day in and day out, by writing, failing, succeeding and revising.” Stephen King

This is not only true about writing, but about all things one wants to do; be a juggler, get wealthy, be happy, develop character. Do it, get feedback, correct it/ adjust and continue. Repeat with corrections, adjust as needed and continue on. Visualization/imagination helps!

We get better through correct repetition by accepting feedback, making corrections and continuing to move forward. We don’t improve when we quit. We don’t improve if we ignore or dismiss feedback to make the needed adjustments and corrections. Then we try it out again and adjust as needed. It is process and it is priceless. It is how things work. Keep at it. Make it better. You will succeed through persistence. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

I’m Afraid Of Failing – Excuse

“Fear of failure is an excuse similar to I doubt I will succeed. One means fearing the future outcome as unwanted. The other means not able to see the outcome you want. I am afraid of failure differs from I am unable to imagine succeeding. One is fear the other doubt.

Sadly, using either excuse means similar results. You don’t get what you want because you are afraid to fail so you don’t take risks or do what’s necessary because of fear. OR you don’t go for it because you think it won’t matter if you do. You won’t succeed anyway. Sucks!

You must realize neither of these are true! Neither are accurate. They are both lies, but you have been repeating them to yourself. That’s the case with all excuses. They aren’t real but you think they are. You treat them as gospel and behave accordingly.

If You Think You Can Or You Think You Can’t You Are Right

To change and move forward, change your thoughts. Change your beliefs. Change your mindset. Develop a champion mindset where failure, worry, fear and doubt don’t inhibit you. If they do anything they motivate you to go for it even more. That’s a possibility!

Of course nothing is a possibility if you don’t think it is. This is why taking charge of your attitude and managing your mindset is so important. You won’t even try if you don’t think you can succeed or you’re afraid you will fail. Change this. Failure is only feedback.

If you fear failure why? What does failing mean to you or about you? They’re just another set of lies wrapped around your worth or self-image. Beliefs tend to cluster like grapes. Where you find one limiting belief you will find others. Change your beliefs and your life will transform! First step, stop the excuses. Learn to be different and celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes
