Understanding how to respond to unpleasant situations

March 31, 2016

Who we are and how we think generally informs our reactions to various complex situations in life. Your responses to any given situation, whether in business or personal life, often dictate unpleasant outcomes.

Rather than taking our time and responding in a professional, polite manner, we spend most of our lives reacting. We become accustomed to this kind of recognition in every situation we encounter. We often neglect to pause and reflect before responding to any personal remarks directed towards us.

How many times have you found yourself in this type of environment, whether it's a text, email, or a face-to-face confrontation? Instead of taking a deep breath, we respond with a text, email, or reply to the person we are conversing with. I acknowledge that I have made mistakes on numerous occasions. We all have been.

So how do we change our approach when facing confrontation? The first thing you should do is take a deep breath and allow your mind to calm down before you react to the irritating statement. Pause your thoughts and reflect on the words spoken or the information you've read. You might need to practice this several times until you feel comfortable with how you're starting to react now to the rude words; that would usually trigger a reply without thinking.

When dealing face-to-face with a hostile disagreement, you should just look at the person and watch how they react. Sometimes they will calm down, providing time for you to analyze the statement that agitated you. Now you can calmly reply to the remark with the smartest, most compassionate response possible. Sometimes the smartest thing to do is leave a bad situation. Some remarks are not worthy of a reply.

By changing your words, you will create positive and productive results.

I have put together this slideshow to help you learn how to react with the correct choice of words. Therefore, the next time you encounter a perplexing situation, you will be more equipped to manage any complex dispute, whether via text, phone, email, or in person. You will be in total control and utterly amazed with your performance.

All the Best,

How to Change unacceptable habits to positive habits

March 29, 2016

In my previous article, I discussed strategies for avoiding costly mistakes during the process of building your success. The most significant change we all need to address is our habits; while some may be acceptable, the majority are simply unacceptable. Is there a formula for this quadratic equation?

I like to use the puppy approach; if your dog dies, you replace it with a new dog and learn to love it. It helps you cope with the loss of your beloved dog, who has been a part of your family for years. Applying this strategy to any obsession you're struggling with requires an active practice that fosters growth and a positive mindset.

When you replace an unacceptable pattern with a particular affirmative habit, it helps you forget that pattern ever existed or provides temporary relief until you adjust to removing it totally from your daily routines. Similar to the aftermath of a breakup with a loved one, most people attempt to find a replacement for their loss. They need that comfort zone—it's not easy, but it's helpful until they adjust to a suitable partner.

If we understand this practice correctly, each time we want to make an adjustment, such as breaking away from a bad habit, we need to replace it with a substance that will occupy our time during the unpleasant feelings we are experiencing. Keeping your mind occupied is an essential element; I do agree it is easier said than consummated.

Here's a perfect example: you want to quit drinking, but how do you find a replacement? You get home, and the first thing you do is crack open a bottle of beer, perhaps a glass of wine, or whatever it is you enjoyed drinking. Consider exercising, going for a jog, taking a walk, or simply riding your bicycle instead of consuming alcohol. You need something to substitute the terrible habit of drinking during those times.

Rather than following the same route home, where you would typically pause to grab your preferred beverage, consider taking a different route. These small steps are crucial for achieving this kind of success. During your drive home, you will see new things and not stop at the same shop.

Essential Elements for Breaking Bad Habits

The first step you will need to establish is the pattern you want to remove from your daily routines. The mind has mysterious abilities when you write down the problem you want to remove permanently. Write a short description of what you are craving to change, along with the strategy you will use to eliminate this pattern. Share your emotions and feelings, explaining why you need to modify this habit from your life and how it will transform your attitude. Describe how this change will enhance your present circumstances and foster a more productive mindset.

You will need to understand what triggers these unacceptable patterns. 
Who is with you when these obstacles arise? 
Are you in an unfamiliar or uncomfortable place? 
Do they occur at a particular time of day? 
Boost your results with this process—a hidden secret that only a select few know!

 

We'll teach you a powerful system that will change you after one session.

The more information you can gather about the habits you want to change when you're writing your action plan, the more it will increase your overall results with the transformation.

What Creates Bad Habits?

Most of the time, boredom and stress are the primary causes of our unacceptable habits, which include drinking, smoking, and laziness, among many other habits we have attempted to eliminate from our lives. Sometimes the patterns stem from deeper issues, necessitating a significant amount of time to fully understand the root cause. In some cases, we may need to seek professional therapy; never be ashamed of taking this route.

Understanding the core source of our unacceptable habits provides a solution that we can implement with satisfactory results. You do not need to be someone else; you need to visualize your success with breaking patterns that are holding you back from a much more peaceful, enjoyable lifestyle.

I hope this will assist you in initiating the process of permanently eliminating any negative habits from your life. While it will take time and effort, if you commit to this program, you will see progress.

How to Avoid costly mistakes well building you're Success

March 22, 2016

The number one obstacle will always be the person who is pressing to achieve success; that would be you. No one is responsible for your past failures; understanding this will help you define yourself. The reason I make this statement is that it is never our fault; we never take accountability for our personnel development. However, we never change our methods of approaching it with a confident frame of mind.

Understanding our miscalculations is like winning a lottery; we then have the ability to improve our vulnerabilities. We are all humans; we deal with numerous issues daily, face numerous distractions, and often lose focus. How do we change all of this? Our inner desires are solely focused on achieving success in our lives. We want our spouses and families to feel proud of our achievements.

We have read countless books, listened to CDs, watched videos on personal development, and spent significant amounts of money in an attempt to change our habits. However, nothing works or provides the solutions we are seeking. The reason is that we always give up. The majority of us, though not all, are simply not committed to changing any bad habits we have.

Being unable to focus on your daily goals can be detrimental. The most logical reason I can think of is that most people, myself included, lack a clear understanding of their life goals and aspirations. You think you do, but reality then sets in and slaughters your dream. The primary reason wasn't as significant as you believed it to be.

Another logical reason we all suffer is one of the most misunderstood; few will accept it. The fear of failing stems from the knowledge that our dreams might not materialize again. Fear can also serve as one of the most powerful motivators in your life. You can harness it to propel your aspirations forward. It generates unadulterated energy, igniting your thoughts and influencing your mindset.

Most often, our comfort zone destroys our dreams. When your mind begins to deceive you, it tries to convince you that your life isn't as bad as it seems. Why should you feel the need to make any changes? You have everything you need at the moment. Adopting a risk-taking mindset will yield the results you have consistently achieved in your personal development.

How can you transform your mindset to achieve a laser-like focus on your desired goals, dreams, and desires? Modifying the people you associate your time with is a good start. Start understanding that time is your most valuable commodity, one you will never get back. Utilize your time wisely and plan your day to tackle and accomplish tasks today, not tomorrow.

My rule is, Yesterday is history. 
Today is a mystery, and tomorrow is an adventure.

You must embrace all new challenges that arise as opportunities. Recognize that intelligence develops over time; if you don't understand something, research it thoroughly. Google it, and study what you did not know at the time. You will find the answers. Learn from all of your past mistakes, and never repeat them again.

Keeping a daily journal is not a detrimental idea; during your private time, write about your day's activities, some positive, some negative. The reason for this is that you can always go back and reread your journal, allowing you to learn from your experiences. Just the other night, I re-read some of my thoughts from 1987. I reflected, "Well, I forgot about how happy I was on that day." I did it before. I can achieve this mindset once again. You understand why keeping a daily journal is beneficial. No one knows I do this—my private time, my thoughts, emotions, as well as a little history of the past. However, the secret is now revealed.

All the Best,

How to Guarantee You're Success Drive with Tapping

March 20, 2016


First of all, what is tapping, and what can it do for your direction toward achieving success? Tapping is a technique that provides your brain with relief from stress and anxiety, removing negative vibes and situations, including chronic pain, from your mind. I find tapping irresistible and enjoy it because anyone can master it in a short amount of time.

How does tapping work? Focusing on the body's energy meridian points provides your brain with knowledge that eliminates many negative thoughts and allows your mind to feel completely relieved. Your mind draws energy from the universe in a manner similar to how the laws of attraction function. Tapping allows your mind to relieve itself from built-up stress, creating a much sharper focus of concentration without distractions from negative vibes.

When you apply tapping to your daily activities, you will notice a drastic change in your overall performance. I came across tapping by accident. I felt overwhelmed, had zero energy, and lacked motivation due to a relationship breakup. I began researching strategies to manage my emotions and overcome the challenges that were consuming me.

I spent almost two days studying, reading every article, and watching many YouTube videos on this subject. What convinced me was the sense of freedom I experienced after following the steps for the first time in a long time. So I decided to apply it to my daily activities, using different levels of negative vibes holding me back from achieving results I was unable to accomplish.

You will become a lifetime student, mastering and eliminating each negative emotion that holds you back from achieving the success you visualized. The mind holds and controls our destiny in life. This applies to all aspects of life, including health, finances, emotions, and spirituality, as well as any hindrance that obstructs the development of a healthy, uncluttered mind. Our thoughts dictate our consequences.

Eliminate all the negative sensations you face daily and create a much healthier lifestyle that provides you with endless possibilities of success you have anticipated achieving.

How to Increasing You're Marketing Skills when writing Headlines

March 10, 2016

Marketing is an unpredictable environment, what worked yesterday may not work today; if we keep this in mind, we will adopt and implement current market trends in our niche industry.  Understanding our market is the most important aspect of becoming a very creative and innovator marketer.  We can write the most original articles, but if no one reads them, they are counterproductive and nowhere to be found in cyberspace.

Marketing is not only a skill but an “Art”; we need to multiply our audience, gain their attention and entice them to read further what we are offering. Once we have accomplished this step, we have an opportunity to make a first-class impression.  So let’s be fair the most import line on your ad, would be the headline of your article. What we all read first, the headline also know as the title of any article, book, etc. If it does not trigger our interest, more than as we click on the next item until we found one we like. Let’s review some ideas to writing real ingenious headlines for your ads, articles or eBooks.

-Telegraph the promise of a positive benefit.

-Emphasize the strongest benefits in conjunction with your niche market, as competent as possible.

-Outline two and sometimes three benefits on your title that will seduce readers.

-Stay away from fancy words; keep it simple and easy to understand.

-Review and make sure you have used proper spelling and grammar.

-The last one l like using is to make your headline stand alone.

-If you can create an attractive title, which stimulates curiosity, it's an absolute bonus.

                                     Excellent Tool for rating your headline

The Stand Alone Test:

What a stand alone tests means is how much of response have you gotten or will get. Here is an example of this trial, “Write for More Information’ would this draw attention from your audience if they like what they had read so far. Leaves your reader with a moment of curiosity, in most situations they will provide the information you have requested so they can have that information. You're trying to sell the sizzle, to induce them to click on your link. 

Writing creative headlines is an art and science all in itself, and well worth spending some time learning and mastering.  The best headlines written are the ones you find on tabloids, such as “The National Enquirer” (l would strongly recommend and suggest you studying these ads in the tabloids.)

They have some of the best Headlines that gain your immediate curiosity and for unknown reasons you have done what they wanted you to do. Buy their useless material! Here are some examples of some original and productive headlines those tabloids like to use. “AMAZING DIET SECRETS OF HOLLYWOOD ACTRESS THAT CAUSES OVERWEIGHT LOSS.”  

You can see how this will work for you, and again you bought their magazine their mission was successful. The headline caught your attention.

With a stronger comprehension of how important a "Headline" you should review and change your headline or title until it has some of the fundamental ideas l have listed for you. 

How effective is my Headline for this article, check the score, and what part of my Title links with the three areas of emotions. Just copy and paste the title into the search browser.

           3 Areas to concentrate when creating a Clever and Effective Headline

                                                              -Intellectual

                                                              -Empathetic

                                                              -Spiritual

How do we Protect Ourselves with Hyperinflation

March 4, 2016

First of all, we need to understand what the term Hyperinflation means? It is currently happening worldwide the country can not sustain or keep up with their deflated currency.  Everything we bought yesterday costs more today.

How and where do we invest our money in, certainly not with any bank, stocks are very unpredictable, the same with most mutual funds, or stock options, very confusing and expensive if we decided on the wrong road for our financial return. Could cost our retirement savings we had at one time. Here is the best performing asset in 2016.

I am no expert in this field, but I do listen to the ones that are experts in this area of expertise, Jim Rickards, Mike Maloney, and  Nick Barisheff to mention a few. What controls inflation, debt indeed plays an essential element. Take for example the American deficit at the end of 2015 was $18.1 Trillion dollars with a budget for the fiscal year of 2016 to be approximate $19.4 trillion, mind boggling. How will America and many other countries make their interest payment on their debt? Print more money which is only a bandage that increases additional inflation.

What backs up the U.S. buck, there is no commodity at all. Why Richard Nixon eliminated the gold standard, so he could have his freedom with the U.S. Buck used all over the world as the currency of choice. When Governments need more money, they just print it, who cares at the time, that is their solution. Then along came Mr Ronald Regan, the white shining armour man who had to compete with the cold war with Russia.

What did this competition prove other than increasing spending on their Military Forces, just created more debt? Ronald wanted to have the most up to date weapons, planes, ships, submarines to protect the world. We do appreciate his judgement, but only got us all into a painful period that took years to come back and haunt us all. It arrived several years ago; Mr Bush help the increases also with his reckless spending with a war that never proved any of the claims he had made.

Some of the Solutions for Hyperinflation

-Central Banks have to stop printing more money so they can keep up with the interest on the deficit.
-Government has to find a way to lower their expenditures 
-Increase taxes, with a better system of collecting taxes that are outstanding. 
-Federal Government has to raise the Reserve Requirements
-Federal Government has to implement stricter limitations, regulations with tougher disclosure for mortgage brokers and stock brokers

What are some of your thoughts with Hyperinflation, do you think it is happening at an alarming rate?

The biggest problem with Government Data released for public viewing is that its masquerade corrupted and manipulated by unreliable information.

The Art of Duplication with an E-Commerce or MLM Business

March 1, 2016

When I joined my last and current e-commerce company, I was labelled as (NFL) I am also not talking about the National Football League. What it stands for is (No Friends Left) for me to contact.

When I would start talking about my new business, my friends politely excused themselves from my presence. Honestly now, how could I blame them, they all had been so supportive of my other projects, whether as customers and some even took the gamble to become a member of my team.

I have been with this company now for over five-plus years, not one friend, not one relative did I encourage to join me. They do ask me if I am still doing that business I had talked about; my reply yes I am. Some even ask how is it working out so far, I tell them yes it's working out very well.

Understanding Networking Marketing is Imperative

Why is this so important, the moment we mention Networking Marketing, people immediately create the reasons why it will never work, or will you ever make any money with this scam.

Truth to the matter, people fail as stock brokers, writers, professional athletes along with many other professions they associate with or decide to make it their career.

It's just reality with the career that we chose for making a living with for the rest of our lives. There is no guarantee just because you graduated with the highest mark in your class you're not guaranteed success in that field of choice.

If you learn and study the very few who succeed, you're going to increase your odds against failure.  Your sponsor is the key element of your success; they need to be a coach, leader as well as provide you with the foundation for you to build a successful business.

Resources are training you with the business aspect, educating you on how to become a master of Duplication. Without any duplication this type of activity will never generate the income, you desired.

They need to take the time and show you how to approach your prospects, friends or relatives. Each one has a different approach; you can not sell a family member the same way you are selling a raw prospect.

The Secret with Duplication is working a hot market:

Questions for some what's a hot market mean? How do I create a hot market? Where do I find a hot market? These's are important questions that we need to be aware of if we are going to accomplish this project successfully.

The Hot market involves prospects who already know you and your reputation from past projects, a family member, close friend or business associate. They already trust who you are. Many will join for the simple reason they trust your judgement with what you are doing or have accomplished.

When I signed someone up, I would make it as comfortable as possible. Never asked him how many people they knew, I would always ask do you know two people who would also do what you are doing. Eliminating the thinking that I would need thousands of people for me becoming successful.

Now he is thinking in a logical frame of mind, yes I am pretty sure I know two people who would also benefit from this project. The principal component is all they need to do is introduce two new prospects to this journey for results to happen.

Providing this type of logic has benefits, you have simplified the recruiting process down to just two prospects. When I used this formula, we were closing in a ratio of 68 - 72 percent of new partners that joined our team.

What we did was repeat the same process with each new partner who joined us. Do you know two people who would also benefit from doing what you are doing?

We ae now always working a hot market, because the new prospects trusted the reputation of his sponsor. Keep in mind you never know who the new partner knows as a prospect. Never judge the level they come in at, it doesn't matter, when you work with them they will upgrade to the level that feels comfortable once they are ready.

A big mistake many Network Marketers do, they will push for the new prospect to join at the highest level, for their benefit and no one else's. Creating duplication is working smart, understanding how to use empathy at all levels will provide massive rewards.
