What do you WANT?

A flower doesn't turn toward the sun because it needs to, but because it wants to, and so the process is effortless and joyful.

Continuous Learning by Brian Tracy

"I believe that through learning and application of what you learn, you can solve any problem, overcome any obstacle and achieve any goal you set."
- Brian Tracy

Brian Tracy is a man of many ventures. He has had a long and prosperous relationship with the business and corporate world -- thus his experience is very valuable to others. Enjoy this article from Brian Tracy.

Continuous Learning
By Brian Tracy


Throughout the developed world, we have moved from an era of manpower to an era of mind power. We have moved from the use of physical muscles to the use of mental muscles. Today the chief sources of value in our society are knowledge and the ability to apply that knowledge in a timely fashion. In the information age, knowledge is king, and those people who develop the ability to continuously acquire new and better forms of knowledge that they can apply to their work and to their lives will be the movers and shakers in our society for the indefinite future.

When you learn and practice the techniques for rapid learning, when you join the learning revolution, you will learn how to unlock the incredible powers of your mind. You will learn how to become smarter & faster than ever before. You will learn how to become a master of your fate rather than a victim of circumstances. You will learn how to take complete control of your present and future destiny so that you can accomplish and achieve anything you want in life.

The answer to almost every question and the solution to almost every problem in the world of work is to learn and practice something new and different. When you learn how to use the incredible power of your brain to absorb and apply new ideas and information, you will be able to lead the field and rise to the top of any profession or occupation.

Here's another question for you: What is your most valuable asset? In terms of cash flow, what is the most valuable thing you have? Well, unless you are very rich, or have a family trust account, your most valuable asset is your "earning ability." It is your ability to earn money. It is your ability to apply your knowledge and skill in a timely fashion to get results for which others will pay.

Specific knowledge and specific skills will become obsolete with the passing of time, but learning how to learn is a permanent skill that you can use all the days of your life. The people who join the learning revolution, and who learn how to learn faster, like those people who first learned how to operate computers, or learned how to become excellent in their fields, will be able to earn more in one or two years of work than the average person earns in perhaps five or ten years.

By joining the learning revolution, you will enhance every area of your life. You will be able to help your spouse and your children unlock and realize more of their individual potentials. You will be a better friend in helping your friends use more of their abilities. And you will be a better manager, developing the skills that will enable you to get far more out of yourself and other people than ever before.

Secret Traffic Formula that Changed an Industry

I want to share with you how I'm learning to cream the competition using a secret "traffic formula" that changed an industry. And the best part -- the formula is mostly industry independent.

Michael D*** has unexpectedly released a video showing how a 20-something year old kid went from waiting tables, to 7-figures in less than 18 months. He created a strategy called the “Traffic Formula” that let him produce endless free leads, and instant cash for his business, anytime he wanted.

In 2006, he revealed this formula to the public for the very first time, and it literally changed the networking industry forever. And his pocketbook since he charged $1,000 to teach the system.

He also went on to build the 2nd largest group in his MLM organization, and made over $7,000,000 from his home office.

The video is a full 36 minutes long. No sales pitches. No strings attached. No cost.

In the video, Michael literally gives you the formula.

Next, he demonstrates the power of the strategy by showing you how he made his friend Eben around $250,000 just by sending a few emails... in a totally different industry.

Finally, he shows you how he generates over 600 leads/prospects every single day for free. Remember, this formula works for any industry that has to find customers.

So here's the video link.

Five Simple Tips For Living Life Well by Marlise Karlin

Your success starts between your ears... in your mind and in your thinking. Marlise Karlin has a unique ability of rebooting people through their experiencing The Simplicity of Stillness®. In this guest article, Marlise offers us five simple tips for living life well -- that cost nothing, but are invaluable in making the journey of life more enjoyable and balanced.

Millions of people find themselves overloaded with responsibilities and distractions in their complicated lives, and although they try to stay healthy from a physical standpoint by eating well, exercising and getting enough sleep, they are only nurturing their bodies, but neglecting to nurture their minds and spirits as well.

Marlise Karlin offers Five Simple Tips for Living Life Well
Reboot Yourself by Nurturing Your Body & Mind

#1: Breathe Into the Moment

In the midst of a busy day, take a few moments to find stillness. Slow your pace, breathe deep, and refocus your attention away from the mind-chatter. Instead, reflect on what is most meaningful to you in life, and carry those inspirational thoughts with you throughout your day.

#2: Take Inspired Action

Being in constant reaction mode will leave you feeling exhausted & unfulfilled. After taking a moment of reflection and stillness, follow through with the necessary steps to achieve the goals you set forth for the day. If a disruption occurs, acknowledge it and look for a solution, rather than allowing it to derail you. Notice how your new focus helps you to stay on track with greater ease.

#3: Water Your Garden

Truly acknowledge the people in your life for the value they bring to you and the world. As with a garden, relationships need to be nurtured and appreciated. With even a sprinkling, the relationship will bloom – and the beauty of what is given will return to you tenfold.

#4 Be Aware of Your Attitude

Notice how you feel and how you radiate those feelings outward. If you have a positive attitude, people will not only gravitate to you, but it might even help change the attitude of others from negative to positive. If you are projecting love, generosity and hope, others may follow your lead. Realize how what you give comes back to you!

#5 Make Choices

Acknowledge that you have the ability to make choices that will keep you moving forward toward your overall vision, rather than letting other people, or life’s circumstances distract you from staying focused on what matters most. Choose what moves you toward your goals that give you the greatest rewards – inside and out.

“People are running at a hundred miles an hour, racing with the clock, trying to squeeze in ways to stay healthy and fit,” said Marlise Karlin. “It’s important to realize it only takes a few minutes a day to completely reboot ourselves by nurturing both mind & body to become more balanced and healthy.”

Your Career Change Should Rely on Your Dreams - By David Couper

Today's guest article is from David Couper. David is a subject matter expert in the field of Career Change. I choose to share this article with you because of David's unique approach to dream fulfillment as it relates to your regular employment. When you go to your job every day are you also working towards your dreams? If not, why not? This is great food for thought as we do anything in our daily lives. We are either reaching for our dreams or we must question why we are doing what we are doing. Every minute. Life is too short and our time is too precious to get derailed from our goals and dreams.

Your Career Change Should Rely on Your Dreams
- By David Couper

Do you have dreams? Of course you do because you are human. But are you living those dreams? Are you making them happen? If you have answered no to the last two questions, it is time that you start living your dreams because you only live once. You get one chance to make things happen for yourself.

One way you are really going to make things work for you is through a career transition. This is because our careers more or less dominate our lives, and how we feel about our career can impact how we feel about the rest of our life. If you take your dreams and base your career off of that, then changing careers won't be so difficult. As a matter of fact, it will be more exciting than stressful.

Here is some career change advice that you can use when achieving your dreams:

* Don't just settle for any career just because it pays good money. You need something that will make you happy. The monetary factor is not always what someone needs to be happy. So don't step out on your dreams over money. Many individuals will tell you that satisfaction outweighs monetary rewards in many cases.

* Always evaluate every aspect of a new career and ask a lot of questions. This is necessary to make sure you will be doing something that you will find purpose in. If you feel like the tasks you do each day are empty, you are going to feel empty.

* One of the best ways to really make your dreams come true in a career transition is to pump up your confidence and know you can make it happen on your own. This means entering a field you have always wanted to get into by starting your own business. If you are passionate about it, you will make it happen. Just don't quit your current job today and then wonder how you're going to pay the bills tomorrow.

* Take your time. Make sure you don't get in a hurry when making your transition because that is where mistakes are made. In a few months, you may find out that things weren't exactly what you hoped they would be.

If you're not really sure what your dreams are for your career, do some career testing. This is something you can do through your local workforce development office, or you can find tests online. These tests will tell you what sectors you are suitable for based on your current skills and things you like to do.

It is very important that you do a job you like so you can feel like you accomplished something at the end of the day. And the ideal career also keeps you from mixing your work with the rest of your life when you should be focusing on other things. In other words, you are able to achieve that work-life balance that is very important to your very existence and that of your family.
