Whenever You Notice This You Must Do Something

“Whenever you notice your attention on the less than glorious, whenever you notice yourself thinking or feeling less than glorious thoughts and feelings, gently remove your attention. Withdraw it. Don’t get upset, angry or sad about it.

Don’t criticize or chastise yourself. Just notice it and then shift your thoughts and feelings toward something more positive. Move from the negative into neutral, a place where it doesn’t matter, and from there, move into more positive thoughts and feelings.

You must learn to do this deliberately. Take the energy away from the less than glorious and put it toward the positive. When you do this repeatedly you build the habit of moving from the negative to the positive easily and effortlessly.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

You begin to spend time more naturally in the positive. When you are able to do this consistently you become what you focus on most of the time. THEN, since most of the time you are positive, and the negative doesn’t bother you, you are free and open to create, make happen and attract what you do want. Your energy is devoted to creating the wonderful life you want to have. Get it? It’s how you create your best life ever. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

“Life On Your Terms’ is a hall of fame level book written by Rex Steven Sikes. I am such a fan of this book. I truly think this is one of the greatest personal development books written of all time.” Moe Rock, Owner & Publisher The Los Angeles Tribune Available at amazon.

Cut This Off And It Will Die

“If you water plants they grow. If you cut off their supply to water they wither and die. IFyou give them sunshine they can grow and thrive. IF you cut off their supply they wither and die. Whatever you nurture grows. If it is neglected it will die. Get this it’s important.

If you plant flowers or weeds, food or poison, whatever you plant as long as it has food and sunlight it will grow. If you remove the food and sunlight whatever you planted will wither and die. It does not matter what it is. It will die.

When you fight negative thoughts and you resist them or worry about circumstances and events, or are depressed about them, you are giving these your attention and energy. You are watering and feeding them. You are helping them to grow.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

This is why you keep getting what you don’t want. If you cut off their supply they will wither and die. You need to withdraw the attention from the less than glorious circumstances. You need to cut off the life-giving force from the negative.

Remove the food, water and sunshine you put on the negative and place your focus on what you do want. Neglect the bad and focus on the good. Concentrate on the positive. Water, feed and nurture the positive. You get whatever you focus on. Energy flows where attention goes. You can change your thoughts and transform your life. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

“Great advice follows. Pay attention and do what it says and you can greatly improve your experience. It is simple. It is direct. It is short but it is powerful advice. It is not just advice but is based on principles that are eternal. Find a way to apply this now.

‘Hold thought steadfastly to the enduring, the good, and the true, and you will bring these into your experience proportionately to their occupancy of your thoughts.’ ― Mary Baker Eddy

Do this and you will greatly benefit. Don’t do it and things will mostly remain the same. Get it? It’s up to you. Celebrate everything! Rex Sikes

Said So Plainly: Here’s What You Need To Do

“For centuries this has been suggested. I’ve done as much for 40 years. As have numerous others. You’ve heard it perhaps, but until you actually do it, one could say it falls on deaf ears, or that nothing is going to change. Knowing you can and should do this, means do it.

When you do everything changes. You don’t have to sift through crap because you already mastered that. The solution isn’t in the problem so remove your attention from it and shift to the solution. Focus exclusively on the solution! What is the solution?

Read this quote. Apply the learning: “When you find yourself creating mental poisons, begin instead to feed on the bread of heaven, the bread of peace, harmony, love and goodwill to all. ‘I helped my brother’s boat to the shore and, lo, my own boat was also at the shore.’” Joseph Murphy

Long Term And Short Term Plans: Do This

“You’ve taken the first step. You’ve clarified your Definite Chief Purpose, your big mission, your longterm goal. Fantastic. The second step is to develop a plan for accomplishing your purpose and to take the first steps. Your plan will change and you’ll adjust it.

It is important to get moving forward and make things happen. Step by step along the way. Don’t waffle or worry just take small action steps towards making it happen. Perhaps, you read a book, take a seminar, learn how to do or perform some aspect of your purpose.

Perhaps, you get a mentor who can advise you. Perhaps, you start investigating resources, regulations or practices you’ll need to know. Whatever it is get going. To help you start setting short-term goals to accomplish each day, week or month. This will keep you on track.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

You need to maintain your focus. If your purpose is the top of the ladder each run is a goal you accomplish along the way. You may not yet know what each rung is but you will as you keep at it. It will become clear. The short-term goal keeps you from procrastinating.

Small steps will keep you moving forward if attaining your purpose takes months or a year or more. Plan out your day. What do you intend to do to move the needle forward? Plan it, schedule it and do it. Act with intention. Stop being haphazard. Focus. Follow through.

At the end of the day, you can evaluate your actions and set your plan for the following day activities. Realize you may not yet know or experience the benefits or all the results of your actions right away. Notice and eliminate time wasters and aim to be productive.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

Not everything will work but you may have to go through it to discover what does work. Keep the faith. Make plans, set goals and work the plan. Take each step and review. Then take the next step. Keep going and you’ll get there. It’s easier than it may sound. Aim at being the best you can be. manage your thoughts, feelings and actions to stay positive and committed. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Proven Process For Success

“You may not know how to succeed yet, but there is a proven process for success. Learn the process, understand it, and apply it and you can transform your life into the life you dream of having. It works when you work it. Nothing will happen if you do nothing.

The first step is to know your purpose. Napoleon Hill called it your Definite Chief Purpose or Definite Chief Aim. Know your mission. Know exactly what you intend to accomplish. You must be clear on what this is? If you aren’t yet clear, get clear. Why do most fail?

Because they neglect this step. Hill says they drift. Without purpose, they’re like a cork bobbing in the water driven by the wind this way and that. With a definite clear, specific chief purpose people succeed. Think Oprah, Jim Carry, Lady Gaga, The Wight Brothers.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

Those who prevail know what they want and then pursue it until they have it. They know it is mindset first and then the rest of everything falls into place. Get clear! It’s the first step. Remember a journey of 1000 steps begins with the first step. Decide now. We’ll discuss more in upcoming blogs. Meanwhile, celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

Get Over It! Resistance Is Part Of The Process

“Inside you, you already are all possibilities. Don’t short-change yourself just because you have in the past. Just because you were conditioned to short-change yourself, doesn’t mean you still have to. Decide to be different. Then work at being different. Stick with it.

Choose to be the person you’d like to become. If you don’t like what you are doing, do something else. Do anything else. Develop a positive mindset, practice it, manage it. When you master these basics you’ll manifest marvelously and get incredible results.

Believe you can and you will. Believe you can’t and you won’t. It is that simple. You can become a champion using the law of attraction because you are already using it. Maybe you are getting what you don’t want but you are using it. Now it’s time to learn how to do it.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

Create some space, through awareness to think, feel, speak and act in new, different and more productive ways. Repeat this correctly and consistently until it becomes a habit. Do it in the face of resistance and difficulty and you will transform the resistance.

Resistance is part of the process. When you lift weights you utilize resistance to grow muscle. Get this. Adversity is part of the process of moving forward. When you finally understand this you’ll transform yourself into one who can more easily move ahead. That’s why I keep saying celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

No Matter How Grumpy Doing This Improves Your Attitude And Well-being

“This practice benefits you in so many ways. You can experience greater satisfaction in your relationships and improve your connections with others. You’re more resilient and better able to handle stressful events and have a lower risk of depression.

Research has demonstrated this time and time again. The ancients knew it too and have recommended this daily practice for centuries. Let’s explore a little. I disagree with the notion of a ‘negativity bias.’ The brain isn’t biased for the negative it is biased to survival.

It searches out threats to survival not negative things. We consider those things negative. The brain doesn’t judge. It just looks to keep us alive. That said, some people live chronically stressed and focus on the negative. It’s no way to live and prevents us moving forward.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

The daily practice of looking for the good and people, events, circumstances and things to be grateful for is powerfully transforming. The following is a quote on one practice from researchers Seligman, Steen, Park And Peterson.

Positive Psychology Progress: Empirical Validation Of Interventions

‘We asked participants to do their assigned exercise for only one week. We did not suggest that they should keep it up thereafter. In retrospect, we believe that one week may not be enough time for participants in the using signature strengths in a new way condition and the three good things condition to develop sufficient skills and experience.

Yet participants in both of these conditions proceeded to benefit from these exercises up to six months later. We found that the participants who continued to benefit from the exercises were those people who spontaneously did them beyond the required one-week period, without our instruction to do so.’

I’ve recommended beginning and ending each day with journaling numerous things you’re grateful for. I recommend 25 but even if you only do a few it is better than doing nothing. Don’t just list things but review them and feel them. You’ll get the hang of it soon enough.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

At first, it may seem a bit difficult but once you ‘prime the pump’ your ability to find and feel the good you’re grateful and express it will flow! Everything gets easier with consistent, persistent practice. Take a few moments first thing in morning and last thing at night.

I also recommend you draw your attention to what is good throughout the day. In my workshops, people balked at the 25 things but a day or two later asked if they could do more or do it longer. Of course! We take gratitude breaks periodically during the day.

When people enter the seminar room, after breaks, before and after meals and before closing for the day we focus on the good. People feel better and have fun finding good to focus on. Energy flows where your attention goes. What you focus on expands.

Change Your Thoughts And You Transform Your Life

You begin and end your day better. Think about that! You’ll enjoy the day more and get improved sleep. Instead of worrying and reviewing the ‘not-so-good,’ focus your attention on the good and feel how good it is. Take time to feel gratitude because it works wonders.

Do this every day and the benefits exponentially grow. You’ll think, feel and behave better to get better results. You’ll be happier, healthier, more productive while being more relaxed and stress-free. You’ll appreciate and enjoy life so much more. It is worth it. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

If You Don’t Manage This It Manages You THEN LOOK OUT!

“If you aren’t managing your thoughts, if you aren’t controlling your thoughts and directing your thoughts toward the results you want, then your thoughts are running wild and they are managing, controlling and directing you. Either you are master or they are.

Whatever you currently have in your life is a result of your previous thinking. What you enjoy tomorrow will depend on what you begin thinking and doing today! Either you continue to perpetuate negativity or you promote and perpetuate positivity. Which is it?

If you take charge of your thinking you can start getting the good things you want in your life. You can BE and you can DO and you can HAVE anything you want in life when you realize you are the one who creates it. No one else. You alone are responsible for your life.

Change Your Thoughts To Transform Your Life

Most people don’t want to hear or acknowledge this. They prefer to blame others, god, the weather, politicians and priests. Does doing that improve your life much? If you want to change for the better you have to change what you focus on and what you do.

It is true you must work cooperatively with others, and get along, to succeed in life. No one is an island AND your attitude matters. Your attitude determines your altitude and whether or not you will get along with people you can help and who can help you. Get it?

All things begin with your thoughts. They are either positive or negative. If you keep getting that which you don’t want it is time to change your thinking. Change your focus. Stop doing the old way and try something new. It is completely up to you. It is up to your thinking. What will you decide to think about today? It’s important. Celebrate everything!” Rex Sikes

This Dictates The Results You Get! Be Sure To Do It Or Else

“Science states there’ s Cause and Effect. We look for causes outside ourselves because that is what we grew up conditioned to do. We blame others, events and circumstances for our woes. Sometimes, we even blame it for our luck. This is a huge mistake to make.

When we assume responsibility for results, events and circumstances, even if it is not true and only a reframe, we put ourselves in the driver’s seat. We’re not a passenger but we are in charge and have the power to get where we want to go.

To not decide to be responsible and take charge of mindset is to continue to live haphazardly, by default, blaming things outside of us, making excuses and living with lackluster results. One powerful decision can transform all that. It is a decision we must make daily.

Change Your Thoughts To Transform Your Life

We need to choose what we think, feel and do. We need to understand we shape our destiny and that we have the power to make things happen. We may need assistance from others to bring things about, so we cooperate with others for greater results.

Positive things happen when you think positive. You take charge of your thinking. You steer yourself in positive and productive directions. You get to your destination because you know where you’re going and you’re responsible for getting there.

Because you take control of your thoughts you make good things happen. You become a powerful positive force. You have a choice to think positive “I can do it!” thoughts or negative “I can’t do it.” because it’s the only real choice there is.

Change Your Thoughts To Transform Your Life

What you decide to think determines the quality of your life. Your predominant thoughts and attitude determine what you experience. Whatever you focus on expands. What you think about most of the time each day is what you get. Either you can or you can’t. Decide!

If it’s to come true, it’s up to you. If you don’t think it’s possible or that you can, most likely you won’t and will have to live the consequences. If you think it is possible and you can do it then most likely you’ll try and you make changes to move you forward. Get it?

Whatever seed you plant is what grows. You don’t get beans if you plant corn. you won’t live a positive life thinking negative thoughts. If you don’t control your mind your mind will control you. Do you want to be controlled or in control?

Change Your Thoughts To Transform Your Life

Decide what you’ll do and what you will water and nourish. Whatever you nourish is what will grow; weeds or beautiful plants. If you don’t tend your garden it will be overrun by weeds and pests. You determine the results you go after. Think positive thoughts and get positive results. Celebrate everything! Rex Sikes
