Act As If............


"Some people see things; and say, 'Why?'
But I dream things that never were;
and I say, Why not?"
~George Bernard Shaw


I got this from a book called Chicken soup for the soul by Jack Canfield and friend Mark.I'll recommend it anytime so get a copy if you have not already done so.

It starts by saying one of the secrets of success is to start acting like a success before you are one.Act as if. If you had already achieved your dream ,what kinds of clothes would you be wearing?
How would you treat others? Would you tithe a portion of your income to your church or favorite charities?Would you have more self-confidence?Would you take more time to spend with your loved ones?


"Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible".
~Cherie Carter-Scott

It is suggested that you begin to do those things now.and you will begin to attract your desired friends and outcome.

Start acting as if you already have everything you want. Most people think that if they have a lot of money ,they could do the things they want to do ,and they would be much happier. In fact, the reverse is the case.If you start by creating a state of happiness and abundance ,then do the things you are inspired to do from that state of being,you will end up having all the things you ultimately desire.



"Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world."
~Harriet Tubman

The law of attraction states that you will attract to you those things that match your state of being. If you focus on what you don't have, you will send out a message of lack and you will attract more lack into your life.Remember the old adage that says "the rich is getting richer and the poorer?"
It isn't that the rich have more money to invest and earn interest on, it is also the fact that their state of abundance attracts more abundance.

"Your mental attitude is something you can control outright and you must use self discipline until you create a positive mental attitude – your mental attitude attracts to you everything that makes you what you are."
~Napoleon Hill

A little more about coaching

"Let us work as if success depended upon ourselves alone, but with heartfelt conviction that we are doing nothing, and God everything."
~ St. Ignatius Loyola


Getting a coach is fantastic and will help you reach goals you almost taught can never be attained.

You must know that coaching is not therapy or a quick fix machine. It is a step by step process to bring out that best. We've all got a best inside just waiting to pop out and needs a little push.
What the coach does is to love you, believe in you and help you work through walls.

With a good coach you can create something amazing.

The whole world is in competition Yes!!!!! and this can be frightening.

I'll suggest that you do this for you .The minute you make one achievement .....you fuel yourself for another.

You don't have to be 100% in what you set out to do ,the important thing is -the step was taken and like i say.... IT GETS BETTER .

"Take the first step, and your mind will mobilize all its forces to your aid. But the first essential is that you begin. Once the battle is started, all that is within and without you will come to your assistance." ~ Robert Collier

Thats the fact of life ..the more you take action the better you get.

Dr Susan Jeffers : "If you feel good about what you are doing and feel it can help the world in some way ,then push on."

She also said and i agree with her "Fear is such a common thing. If we could just accept that fear is part of life and collect the tools to help us push past all our fears ,we can all become stronger more loving people.

Very often , every time you try something new you're going to experience fear.

The things you want the most are often the things you most fear approaching.

If we remember the words in the Bible that says " I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Affirm it ,Believe it ,Act it.

Affirmations also helps to build our courage to walk in the mist of fear. and the Bible has loads of them.Affirmations thats backed with power.

Note this - Do not let your vision get blurred.

What is Coaching


Coaching is a simple yet very effective form of personal development where client and coach create an alliance that promotes and sustains the client's personal growth and competence.

It helps the client define where they want to be and helps them get there faster and easier than if they worked on there own, giving up who they are for who they want to become.

Many of us don't become who we want, feel, dream because of fear,doubts,thoughts,beliefs and so many other things that stand in our way of living a free and purposeful life.Some of us are successful in our own terms but still find a feeling of emptiness inside .

This is where the coach comes in ........ it is true that a lot of us have done well ,very well for ourselves and think we are self sufficient but i tell you no one is self sufficient everyone needs someone and someone professional. Take a look at the best footballers that you know or any athlete ...... imagine if they didn't have a coach ....what do you think ...... will they be that good?

Life in general is like sports you need to work out and even when you think you are exceptional. You Need A Coach.

Something we all need to know is ......New babies are born everyday,they get older and catch up with us while we are still thinking our dreams and planning it out.


"There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, "Yes, I've got dreams, of course, I've got dreams." Then they put the box away and bring it out once in a while to look in it, and yep, they're still there. These are great dreams, but they never even get out of the box. It takes an uncommon amount of guts to put your dreams on the line, to hold them up and say, "How good or how bad am I?" That's where courage comes in." ~ Erma Bombeck

Your coach will help you take it further and further and further.

Like the sports man who has achieved, you breath in the air of satisfaction, victory, joy, fulfillment, ......Fill in the words .......on how you would feel if you achieved........ well you get all that and more when you get that outcome you so long for.

"Action is the real measure of intelligence."
~ Napoleon Hill

My My My ....... How Time Flies





"Procrastination is the fear of success. People procrastinate because they are afraid of the success that they know will result if they move ahead now. Because success is heavy, carries a responsibility with it, it is much easier to procrastinate and live on the 'someday I'll' philosophy." ~ Denis Waitley


Its 1.06am ,I can't believe its the 10th of may ...which means its two months and five days already since the first post went up.

This is exactly what happens when we say ...tomorrow and another tomorrow and another tomorrow .......for tomorrow never ends.

I do not want to end today without putting something up it doesn't matter what .....the most important thing is that i did some thing today. I know that with every addition it will get better.

I urge you not to delay any more ..for time waits for no one...the more time you waste the weary you get and the more reasons you have to give up and hmmmmmm..........i wont say it because you will achieve and not be like those who saw themselves at 60yrs and said ......THAT WAS MY IDEA .

Time once gone can't be brought back but we can make very good of the time ahead so much so that we don't remember the time lost.

The cure for procrastination is positive ACTION. Eliminate the barriers to positive ACTION in your life, whatever they may be, and you will unleash an unstoppable power within.

I will end this by leaving this wise saying...

"The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your
life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us.
If you can do that, and live that way, you are really
a wise man." - Euripides

GIVE UP NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!

This is for everyone out there who has a big dream but just don't know what next to do.

persevere!

I read the other day about a professional athlete who, the newspaper says, is still holding out. They do not think he will sign this contract until he gets everything he wants. But, the article continued, he is in danger of holding out too long. He may not only end up without what he wants, he may also end up without a contract.

Some people hold-out on life. They hold out until they can be sure they will succeed. They hold out until there are no uncertain ties or until they can see a solution to every problem. They wait until there are no risks. They forget that holding out on life can be the biggest risk of all.

"THE SADDEST WORDS OF TONGUE OR PEN ARE THESE:

'IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN!'"

"Will it work out?"

"Can I be sure?"

"Can I wait until the risk is gone?"

These negative thoughts come like birds snapping up the seed of positive, life-renewing, growth-producing, risk-taking thoughts that are intended to inspire us to live happier, more joy-filled lives.

Determine today to stop holding out.

Sign the contract.

Take the risk.

Today I will let God's positive ideas control my thinking.---curled from Dr Robert H. Schuller .
