Let me ask you a question. Have they convinced you that you
cannot succeed? Have they convinced you that this market is
impossible? Have they convinced you that the market turning
around is the only thing that can help you?
Well, I got good news and bad news. The bad news is shame
on you for letting an outside force or entity to control
your outcomes but the good news is…
IT IS VERY EASY TO STOP LISTENING TO THEM!
First of all, who are THEY? They can be the media, your
friends, your family members, your parents…it may even be
those from your childhood. Perhaps you saw your parents go
through tough times and recall how tough that was and you
are simply reliving those memories in your current life.
There are two quick things you can do RIGHT NOW to change,
it will take some time and dedication but, they are FREE
and what the heck is your alternative?
First things first, if the person giving you advice is
struggling, not a millionaire, or does not live the type of
life you wished that you lived, STOP LISTENING TO THEM. Take
this one step further and learn how to only accept that
advice that HELPS you toward your goals. Want some
examples?
The statement that I hear over and over is “It is tough
to make money in this market”. Well, if you read my past
blog at http://theforeverwealthclub.com/blog/date/2008/11
you know that 2008 marked the year that more billionaires
were created than ever before, so, just take that statement
and throw it out the window or continue believing it and
like James Ray says: Your wish is my command! You see, if
you simply make statements like that or believe them, you
force them to become true. And yes, I am talking about the
law of attraction but it really goes deeper than that. In
the bible when Moses and his people were in the desert, the
people came to Moses and told them they didn’t have water.
So what did he tell them to do? He told them to pray for
rain. When he visited them and they cried about praying and
praying but no rain showing up, he asked them where the
ditches were. They looked puzzled and asked what he meant.
He said, and this is so important to understand, where did
you expect the rain to go if you didn’t dig ditches?
ARE YOU DIGGING THE DITCHES TO ACCEPT YOUR RAIN?
You need to have an invisible force field around you that
protects you from all malignant statements. Negative
statements about your future are cancerous and need to be
quickly thrown away. Negative events also need to be used
for what they are meant to be used for. Let me give you an
example.
I got a massage the other day and I came out to my car and
the car would not start. The battery was so dead that my
door locks would not even work and I had an important
meeting to get to. Did I sit there and moan and groan? Did
I say how much it sucked and say woe is me? No, my very
first thought, the one that came to me instantly was, I
wonder who I am supposed to meet for this to happen. You
see, everything happens for a reason. Every bad event in
your life happens for a reason. They may happen because you
do not currently hold the mental state to accomplish a goal
you are focusing on. They may happen because had your life
gone on as planned, you would have missed out on something
wonderful. Heck, they may happen to save you from something
even worse! So, back to my car not working…
After I called AAA, I grabbed some food and sat on a bench
outside of an animal hospital. A lady came out about 2
minutes later, obviously distraught, and asked if she could
sit down beside me. I said sure (and kind of laughed inside
on how fast this one happened). She got on the phone and
called someone, I assume her husband, and expressed her
dismay at the health conditions of her dog. When she got
off the phone I told her that I hoped her dog would get
better soon. She spent the next 40 minutes telling me all
about her dogs, how she rescues animals and how much she
loves her pets. I sat there quietly and listened,
contributing where I could but let her go on and on about
her pets. After all this time, she got up, looked at me,
told me I was a great guy, thanked me for listening and
went about her day. She looked infinitely better than she
did when she came out of that hospital. I don’t say this
to impress you but to impress upon you that you can make a
huge difference in someone’s life by just listening to
them. Now, another interesting thing that happened is when
the AAA driver arrived, I didn’t have cash to tip him so
I looked in my trunk, found an unopened set of Audio CD’s
for the secret, which, he had never heard of, and gave them
to him. Hopefully he will get something out of them and
change his life as I did when I first listened to them.
Now, ready to change your life? Ready to wipe those excuses
out of existence? Then let’s do it RIGHT NOW! I told my
good friend Tim Hart this step and he calls me every couple
days to tell me that something else just happened from doing
it.
Every single day, write down what you want to accomplish in
the present tense.
If your immediate response is that you don’t have time,
then I am here to tell you that you are full of crap and
get over it. I write a page and a half every single day no
matter what and it takes about 15 minutes to do. Here are
some of my more generic ones that you can instantly use as
examples:
I feel wonderful now that I only have fantastic things
happen to me.
I am so happy that I have such wonderful personal and
business relationships.
I feel so happy that I have so much money coming in from
all kinds of avenues.
If you notice the pattern, I am stating them in the present
tense, only using positive terms and saying them with
emotion. Do not worry if you have a hard time believing
your statements at first, with repetition and not listening
to negative forces around you, they will start to stick. To
start this process, pick one statement and focus on
something you can measure shortly. The more you see
results, the more you believe, the more they will start to
work. If someone owes you money, then write a statement
saying how grateful you are that you were paid from that
person.
STILL CONVINCED YOU CANNOT SUCCEED?
The great Tony Robbins was in New York City and told his
team that he wanted to go around and give bags of food to
the homeless. He told them to rent a van so they could
transport the food. Hours later he asked where the van was
and they said there were no vans available as they had
called all the rental places. Determined to get his way he
went into traffic and started knocking on the windows of
vans, stating what he wanted to accomplish and if they
would let him use their van. After 30 minutes he knocked on
the window of the head of the salvation army and
accomplished his goal.
WOULD YOU KNOCK ON THE WINDOWS OF NEW YORK CARS TO
ACCOMPLISH YOUR GOALS?
