HOW TO OVERCOME CONFUSION IN YOUR DECISION MAKING PROCESS

Hi. Just a little digression!

     

This day I just want to ask about your online business. You see,there are some things that could easily bring confusion and discouragement  to you as you struggle to make a living online.

One of those easy starters of discouragement is information overload.

Are you presently suffering from this online disease?

Are you so overwhelmed with  too much information that you don’t even know what to do?

If yes then I counsel you to quickly redeem your mind and brain right now by taking to the instruction that follow soon.

Decide that you will not open your mail for at least three(3) days.

Use those free days to reassess what you have been trying to do and 

what result you have to show for it.

There is a saying that you can not continue doing the same thing and expect to get a different result.

Therefore It might be time for you to replace what is not working with the one that works.

And remember that giving up is not an option.

Hope this helps!

To your online success

Personal Success in Business - The 10 Steps!

Being aware of your own approach to Business is the key to your success. How aware are you of your own response to challenges? How well do you manage yourself? What kind of 'leader' are you for your Business? How disciplined are you?

Do you even KNOW the 10 Steps to Personal Success in Business?

Believe it or not, this is an area that many business owners ignore and dismiss. They simply go from day-to-day until something happens to make them stand up and take notice. Being aware of how your mind works is an important foundation for growth. As a business owner and decision maker, it's your responsibility to be completely aware of every aspect of your business.

Here are the 10 Steps to Personal Success in Business.

Step 1 - UNAWARE / UNCONSCIOUS INCOMPETENCE

This is where you don't know anything and don't do anything. Things just happen. You live each day as if you photocopied it from the day before. You're at the bottom of the ladder to success.

Step 2 - REACTION

You're operating on animal instinct. It's fight or flight. You simply react to whatever comes your way without thinking. This is a very stressful place to be.

Step 3 - GROUP

This is where most people are, yet it's the most dangerous step. It's where you follow everyone else - the masses. It's comfortable here. You seek reassurance and guidance from peers, family and friends. The thought of breaking away is scary. Maybe you've had a great idea to break out and do something innovative but when you mention it to a network group, friends or family for their opinion, the response may go something like: "Are you kidding?", "Haven't you seen the news?", "I can't see that working!". So, you put the one thing that can TRANSFORM your life back in your pocket, agree with them that it's a bad idea and stay as you are. You're back in your comfort zone, feeling safe. You feel relieved, thinking everyone else is right - after all, you think to yourself, who would have supported if you had taken that next step?

It might be comfortable being with the group, but it holds you back. When you move out of the group, it's the best step you can take!

Step 4 - ASPIRATION

You want to BE more, DO more and HAVE more. How many times have you aspired to do something but done nothing about it? Have you ever made a resolution then forgotten about it? Can you remember a time when you used to think about doing something but never got around to it?

Having an aspiration is good, but without action, it doesn't amount to anything.

Step 5 - HESITATION

Now, you step forward into your future. But wait! You look around and then panic because you're on your own. Being a leader can be lonely and when you look behind and see the group, it's easier to step back into that old comfort zone. How many times has that happened to you?

Step 6 - DISCIPLINE

At last! This is the key step. It's when you take congruent action AND MOVE FORWARD. When you have the discipline to do this, you know you've taken the most important step towards your personal success. You no longer hear those people calling you back. All you focus on is your future, pulling you forward.

You've decided to do something positive and have taken the ACTION to do it.

Step 7 - EXPERIENCE

Almost immediately, by taking decisive action your knowledge increases. You learn new things and gain the confidence to continue moving forward. Others follow you, perhaps for the first time. You're now the leader. You gain the experience of having taken action and this experience encourages you to continue going forward, gaining experience of new situations all the time.

Step 8 - RESPONSE

Now it gets really interesting...With your new discipline and growing experience, you learn how to respond, rather than just react as previously. When you're confronted with an issue, instead of a quick reaction or hiding from it, you evaluate it, test & measure different options, and then respond with the best solution.

Step 9 - 'KAIZEN'

This is the Japanese principle of constant-and-never-ending-improvement or "ongoing change for the better". Your focus is on continuous improvement. This step is the natural state of successful people. It applies to every aspect of your business and your life.

Step 10 - AWARENESS

Finally, you display the characteristics of success. You Plan, Do and then Review. You've learned how taking action produces results and how the right decisions give you the right results. You're ready to start creating new steps of your own!

So, do you recognise the steps above?

Perhaps not. After all, most people are stuck in the Group level and don't know there's anything above them. Or maybe you've already stepped out and are taking action. You may even be further ahead. However, unless you've made it to the DISCIPLINE stage, the best you can ever be is in constant hesitation. This robs you of time, your most valuable non-recyclable resource.

Challenge yourself! How are you going to move up a level?  How do you get away from following the masses? All it takes is just one step at a time.

Find out who the successful people are in your industry and find out what makes them successful. They are the few going in the opposite direction from the masses.

Study them. Follow them.

Remember, the power to your Personal Success in Business is developing yourself personally.

These 10 Steps are just one element of the 7 Principles of Business Success, developed from years of studying the best business models worldwide to create an easy model to follow.

Unstoppable Success in Business

Becoming an unstoppable success in business, or life, requires that you have unstoppable belief in yourself and your goals. Once you have established your Purpose and your Passion, you have in effect carved out the road map and set your compass for the journey. So what is it that is going you sustain you on that journey to success in business??  Belief. Your ability to believe in yourself is what separates you from the other 95% who will simply never get started. Most people will tell you that they will 'believe it when they see it'. A true entrepreneur, however, will tell you that they 'saw' their success a long time before others believed in them.

Some people do start off with a belief so strong that it radiates like a beacon on a mountain top. Think Muhammad Ali: "I am the greatest. I said that even before I knew I was. Don't tell me I can't do something. Don't tell me it's impossible. Don't tell me I'm not the greatest. I'm the double greatest." No wonder he became World Champion. It was written in his destiny. He clearly made sure of it by writing it their himself.

Lack of belief, which really translates from fear, doubt or an underlying lack of deservability, is probably the biggest single factor standing between a person and their success in business. And one of the reasons for that may be that they think they need faith as big as a mountain before they have any chance of success. But here's the deal: A car can travel from one side of the country to the other at night without being able to see further than the next 100yds in its headlights. And you do not need to have a faith that illuminates the whole staircase, you just need to be able to see the next step, as articulated by the inspirational Martin Luther King. Some days your flame of belief may burn hot, other days the winds of doubt may blow so strong, your flame almost dies. That does not matter. What matters is you ability to nurture and protect the ember of your dreams so that it never completely dies. All you need to become a massive success in business is a seed of belief. The crucial thing, however, is that you nurture that seed, you feed and you water it, you tend it every day, until that seed grows into its true magnificence. An example of the soaring heights to which unstoppable belief can take your dream is Mahatma Gandhi. And yet by his own admission, he was not born with that faith. What Gandhi possessed,however, was an unshakable Purpose and he put forth the effort to cultivate his belief until it matched the true magnificence of his Purpose. He said of his remarkable achievements: "I claim to be no more than an average man with below average capabilities. I have not the shadow of a doubt that any man or woman can achieve what I have if he or she would put forth the same effort and cultivate the same hope and faith."

So how do you develop or nurture a spirit of unstoppable belief so that you continue to strive for the next level of success in your business?

The number one key to success in business is to develop the mindset of success. Surround yourself with the evidence of success. Use motivation and inspiration to develop a positive mental attitude, which in turn feeds your belief system and translates into a 'can-do' attitude. Learn to recognise when the seeds of doubt creep in and learn techniques to replace those doubts with beliefs. Success needs a fertile ground in which to thrive, so make sure you tend it on a regular basis.

Second is to surround yourself with a community of like-minded success-orientated people. People who are always ready to pull you up, not push you down. People who are ready to share ideas, encouragement, positive constructive advice. And mastermind with those people. Listen not just to their words but to the intent behind their words. Borrow their attitudes and beliefs and adopt them as your own. Become the person you desire to be literally one day at a time.

In my next article on achieving success in business I will discuss 10 steps to developing an Unstoppable belief system. Remember: "Believe in yourself and there will come a day when others have no choice but to believe in you."

Ten Mistakes That Can Affect Your Business Success

Ten Mistakes That Can Affect Your Business Success

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Linda_Hancock]Linda Hancock 

So often people talk about the things that you need to do in order to achieve business success but very few ever mention the things and choices that a person allows to interfere with their progress and business. This article will focus on issues that business owners tend to ignore or continue doing without realizing that their success will be limited or destroyed over time.

1. Financial problems - If you have not set up your business with the proper procedures and backing, you will soon find that you are out of business. You need to have a Business Plan and the financial support that will allow your business time to grow in the start-up phase.

2. Relational - Many people surround themselves with people who drain their time and energy. If you have a business partner who is not working on the same goals as you are, it won't be long until the business will suffer.

3. Personal - Dishonesty, old negative patterns, untreated mental or physical ailments, family demands or hidden "secrets" can all interfere with your business success.

4. Addictions - When people have an addiction, it take priority over everything. In fact, alcohol or drugs can become a "first love" that steals reasoning and resources not only at a personal level but also from a business endeavor.

5. Incompetence/Inexperience - When you do not know what you are doing, mistakes can occur frequently. Your time and reputation will likely suffer as you try to clean up the mess!

6. Poor self-care - People who are tired, under nourished or ill are not able to reach their potential. As a result, everyone, including that person, the rest of the staff and the client suffer.

7. Lack of Focus - Many businesses fail because time and energy are invested in the wrong things. You need to know where to invest your attention so that you have good revenue and an acceptable bottom line.

8. Poor Service - Clients come to you in order to have their needs met. If this doesn't happen, they will not only look elsewhere for services but also spread the word that your business is not very helpful.

9. Inflexibility - You need to be able to adjust your ideas in order to improve the business. Stubbornness without consideration of options will kill a business in a world that welcomes change and new ways of doing things.

10. Other Psychological Factors - World trends and economic times can have a strong impact on how a business will do. If you are not motivated or able to handle stress, you will likely soon find that running a business can be an overwhelming adventure.

Positive Words, Key To Success

Positive Words, Key To Success

Our words control our lives in more ways that most people can even imagine. The power and effect our daily confessions and affirmations have on our lives is literally mind-blowing, when you consider the fact that our words determine the very course of our lives. I grew up hearing a lie. That lie was," Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me." Maybe you heard that before to. And maybe, you thought that this saying was a good thing to believe and repeat to your children. But this quote, regardless of how innocent it appears, is deceptive. 

It is not true that words can never hurt you. Words can kill you. Words can destroy you. Words can bring you down. Words can literally destroy your true purpose and potential. And words can destroy the true purpose and potential of others who may be spoken to in a negative light, all the time. Job said that words can break a person in pieces. The essence of what comes out of our mouths on a daily basis is what is determining the actual results we are experiencing all the time. If things are not working in your favor, check your words.

The Bible teaches that the power of death, destruction and misery, as well as the power of life, peace, vitality and success is in the authority of the tongue. We cannot escape the effect of our own words upon our minds, spirits and lives. And this is compounded by the words of others who we allow to speak into our lives as well. What we need to ask ourselves is, what are we saying continually, and what are we hearing continually. 

It is a proven fact that we will never rise beyond the level of our confessions. If we speak negatively all the time, we will experience negative results all the time. Our constant negative speaking will produce within us negative expectations, which shall result in negative patterns of behaviors and negative results in our relationships, situations and circumstances.

However, if our words are constantly positive, we will produce within ourselves positive and confident expectations of good things, which shall result in positive behaviors which produces positive and worthwhile results. Our words matter.

Seeing that death and life are in the authority of the words which we speak, should we not ponder carefully what comes out of our mouths on an on-going basis, eliminating the negative, and embracing the positive? After all, we are in the drivers seat. Our words are just that, our words. Granted that we may have been influenced by this person or the next, the truth of the matter is that we decide what we will accept and what we will reject. Wow. This means that we really are in the drivers seat. 

If you desire true success, you must learn that the number one key to becoming a real victorious person is to take one hundred percent responsibility for your life and decisions. So again I state that your words are just that, your words.

For this rest of this week, watch every word that you allow to come out of your mouth. Ponder them carefully. Look at your speaking patterns. If you discover that they are constantly negative, then work on changing them. But what is the first step to changing my words from negativity, to positivity, you ask? You just took that step when you read this article. Now read it again. Then second and third step are in here as well.

The Key to Success - Motivation and Inspiration

Good People, Bad Mindsets 

I'm just going to jump right into this. People want you to fail. Plain and simple. It sounds a little harsh and unrealistic at first, however if you consider the following you will realize that it is true. While most people will not come out and say it directly, we as a culture are indirectly bred to think this way. From the time we are born, we are exposed to countless media outlets that scream "No matter how much you have, it is not enough."

 We are trained from a very young age to believe that we need to look a certain way, have a certain thing, or act a certain way in order to be considered successful, or even in a lot of cases "normal". After years of being surrounded by this, our minds are predestined to behave in a certain way. When a person hears of another persons success, hundreds of thoughts will immediately be thrown around in their head, among which most will be negative.

 No matter how good an idea you may present to a friend, 90% of the time they will give you 1000 or more reasons for why that idea will not work. They don't do this in a manner that is direct and insulting, and in fact usually portray it as an attempt to help you. "But have you thought about this?", "Do you realize how much that will cost?", "I'm only trying to help", and so on. The fact is they are trained to think that way because subconsciously their brain is telling them that you may succeed, and leave them behind. It's a natural tendency that is very hard to fight against. Most people don't even realize what they're doing and truly believe they are being helpful by offering "logical" advice. But the fact is, unless they are speaking from 100% personal experience, the only "logical" advice they have are ideas that their brain has generated on the fly. They're good people, they just have bad mindsets.

Get Out of Your Way

In the same way other people try to get in the way of our success, we too have a tendency to get in the way of our own success. Given the same principals as above, a lot of people over many years of exposure to today's culture begin to feel that no matter what they do, they will never have enough. As I've once said already, we are basically brainwashed from a young age to believe we will never have enough, and after hearing this nonsense for so long, we almost have no choice but to believe it's true.

Here's the truth. If you don't make a conscious effort to discover your skills, and other things that make you yourself, you will inevitably fall into a state of mind that tells you that you're no better than anyone else. So many people actually believe they haven't a single thing at all to offer this world, and that is truly a disease of the brain if I have ever heard of one. If you want to think that way, then you WILL be just like everyone else. But I can assure you there is no fun in that. Each of us have our own set of skills, ambitions, and goals and it's those things that set us apart from everyone else. The fact is, though, that most people will not act on many of those skills, or ambitions, or goals and therefore will fall into the same place that 90% of the world falls into. If any of us were given the literal choice one day to conquer all of our goals and get the most out of life, or to fall into contempt and die peacefully bored, we would obviously choose the first.

 The truth is, however, we DO have that choice. We fortunately get to make that choice every day we wake up. The sad truth is that most people will choose the second option. Why? Because it's easy. It's really easy to just get out of bed everyday, go to work, eat dinner, then go back to bed and do it all over again the next day. We as a culture love cycles. We love tradition. Why? Because we know what to expect. If we didn't have a routine to follow, we would never know what to expect, and that makes a lot of people uncomfortable. But here's the truth. You can die peacefully bored, or you can live life with a little uncertainty and quite probably change the world. Get out of your way, you have big things to do.

Ok I'm Ready! Now What 

If you're reading this right now and feel motivated and ready to go, great! But here's the thing. If you stop here, in a matter of a few days or even a few hours, you will fall back into the same slump you were in when you started. It is imperative...

THE EVIDENCE OF AN UNFAILING FAITH

I want to take my text from Hebrews11:1-5.Now faith is the substance of things hoped for,the evidence of things not seen.You need an evidence to serve as a conclusive basis for your beliefs in life..You will never doubt anything that has an evidence.

For example,an evidence that you have money in the bank is your bank statement.Similarly,a title deed to a piece of land is enough of an evidence.In the same vain,the promises of God are made real in your life by faith.How can you be so sure that you will prosper,excel in life and business and ministry?You know it by faith.The proof you have now that you will make it big time is the promise of GOD in his world.

Should any body ask you why you are so sure that your tomorrow will be better than your today ,simply show him the evidence or proof---your faith.
Therefore you must not destroy your evidence,your proof of a better tomorrow.Do not allow the enemy of your soul to steal your evidence or make you doubt your proof.It is by faith you will even please the Almighty GOD.

This is why you must keep your faith at all times.
Hope this helps
