  • Writing Your Own Powerful Affirmations  By : Wendy Betterini
    A common question I see from people just beginning their personal development journey is, "How do I write effective affirmations?" Often they will go in search of existing affirmations that they can apply to their own situation, but they may or may not find something that works for them.

    In my experience, it is much simpler to come up with our own personal affirmations because they'll get right to the heart of the matter like nothing else can!

    First, let's explore th...
  • Land On Your Feet. Every Time.  By : Mary Kay Buttery
    We always exist in a state of grace. Grace is our benevolence of heart, and our generosity of spirit. Grace is unconditional love and the beauty that is our humanity. When we know that we are blessed with grace, we can't help but want to live our lives in grace ...grace is a permanent part of our being. Knowing we are graced gives us hope, makes us more magnanimous, and allows us to trust that we are taken care of.

    No matter what situation has arisen for me, when faced wit...
  • Seven Steps To Achieving Your Goals  By : Kim Olver
    This is the time of year when many goal setting gurus being to talk about reflecting on your goals for the past year and looking ahead to the new goals you will create for the coming year. I recognize the huge importance of having goals but I also think it is useless to talk about goal setting without an even stronger focus on goal attainment.

    Anyone whose ever celebrate the New Year has set a goal but what takes goal setting to the next level? I’d like to share with you m...
  • This Year Will Be Different - Getting Organized  By : Sheila Hull-Summers
    "This year will be different," we optimistically tell ourselves. Like many small business owners, each January, we begin the task of trying to get organized (again). We gather all the necessary tools - file folders, shredders, enormous garbage cans, appointment books, and computer software. We attempt to purge files and cabinets, add new shelving, create checklists, record deadlines, gather tax data, and generally de-clutter the piles that have accumulated on every surface of...
  • Why Haven’t I Created The Life I Want?  By : Ophelia Nicholson
    One of the most amazing things about being human is that every dream or creation leads us to want to dream bigger, or to create a bigger dream than the ones we had before.

    One of the main reasons why your life looks the way it does right now is YOU WEREN'T SPECIFIC ENOUGH. Thought you'd never have to hear that again, right? And so we got a version of what we wanted, but it wasn’t the complete version. See, we spend a lot of time looking at what we don’t want, but very lit...
  • Adult Add: Why Can't Somebody Else Do It?  By : Tellman Knudson And Stephanie Frank
    When you're bored, and you have ADD, you procrastinate about doing boring things and become frustrated, and well... they just don't get done. There are many things that you can do. We’ve already really beaten into the ground the fact that, as soon as you can, you need to start outsourcing and delegating them one at a time to other people.

    However, when you have to do the boring tasks—when you’ve got to do the dishes, take out the garbage, or some kind of accounting if your...
  • New Year…new Life? The Recipe For True Motivation  By : Piercarla Garusi
    The approach of the New Year is for many of us a reason for a resolution to change something in our lives. If you look in a women’s or health magazine, or in the adverts in the media or on the web, there are resolutions everywhere: improve your image, lose weight, improve your diet, stop smoking, go to the gym, start a new hobby, learn a new language, etc.

    But if we want to keep our resolutions, we need to make them smartly.

    A very important factor is ‘why’ we decide to...
  • A Simple Recipe For Success – Never Accept Limitation  By : Oluwafisayo A.
    Beethoven composed some of the world’s best music. His handicap? He was deaf. One of the world’s greatest leaders was US President Franklin D. Roosevelt. His handicap? He served from a wheelchair.

    Wilma Rudolph was born into a poor home in Tennessee. At age four, a double pneumonia and scarlet fever left her paralyzed with polo. She had to wear a brace and the doctors said she would never walk again. But her mother encouraged her; she told Wilma that with God-given ability...
  • The Impact Of Suggestion  By : Kurt Mortensen
    Expectations influence reality and create results. Individuals tend to make decisions based on how others expect them to perform. As a result, people fulfill those expectations whether positive or negative. Expectations have a powerful impact on those we trust and respect, but, interestingly, an even greater impact on perfect strangers. When we know someone expects something from us, we will try to satisfy him or her in order to gain respect and rapport.

    You have probably ...
  • Trifles Make Perfection…  By : Oluwafisayo A.
    A bystander observed Michelangelo as he took a long time retouching every detail of a statue he’d been working on for many days, and asked why he bothered with them. Michelangelo replied; “Trifles make perfection and perfection is no trifle.”

    The greatest enemy of best is good. If you’re satisfied with what’s good, you’ll never have what’s best. (John Mason). The quickest and easiest way to become a high flyer is to do more and then more than is required and then to contin...
  • Motivation In The Place Of Work  By : Mike Francis
    In the businesses, it seems that few things motivate people to achieve more than avarice. If I make A and B, then perhaps I can work one to increase out of the business. All thought us like this at the same time or others. Or, if I do not obtain this not made, perhaps I will obtain put fire. The life well and to have as much money as possible are two of greatest motivations the than we will never know during our lives.

  • NLP A Personal Development Tool  By : Charles Williams
    Like many personal development innovations, NLP – which stands for neuro-linguistic programming – is a product of the 1970’s when the idea of cognitive patterns creating a subjective form of reality that by virtue of its ability to be manipulated, could be slated into personal development tools.

    The goal is to align perceptions – usually of the individual self – with desired outcomes, such as behavioral changes. A large number of proponents of NLP have come forward with an...
  • Transformational, Long-Term, Permanent, Lasting Change  By : Kurt Mortensen
    Change is the key to our success and to our financial future. Often in our own lives, however, change is something we fiercely resist. Even when achievement sits on our doorstep, we’re still too comfortable to make an adjustment. The very first place to look for transformation is within. When you take ownership of yourself, your life and your income, you are on your way to harnessing success.

    I learned early in my life that if things needed to change, it was up to me to ch...
  • Importance Of Setting Limits For Yourself  By : Sylvia Jameson
    Every once in a while we find ourselves in a situation that goes beyond the limits we would like to set. It may be something as simple as not being able to say ‘no’ to a neighbor who wants to borrow your car, and maybe the car is returned late which in turn causes you to get delayed going to work. If you could have said, I will not let anyone borrow my car when I need it, it would have saved you a lot of trouble. A limit can then be defined as a situation where you have contr...
