Far too many  of us spend more time planning our weekend than planning our lives.  Then we  suddenly realize that life has passed us by and we weren’t even aware it was happening.  It is then that we become interested in what we most desire in life.  It is then that we start to focus on what we…

Time and time again we read about ordinary people who do seemingly  extraordinary things that they never thought they were capable of doing. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you…

Of course you are going to say that you don’t waste time with day- dreaming. But the psychologists contend that people spend somewhere between 30 and 50 percent of their waking hours thinking about something other than their function at the moment.

Since your  brain is working 100% of the time that you are awake, it would seem wise to see that it is following a profitable thought pattern.  One accomplished psychologist has suggested using a watch as an illustration. 

It would seem wise not to  expect a cheap, mass-produced watch to perform with…

There comes a very unexpected time when a blinding revelation comes to us and we see things differently than ever before.    It is then that we learn to tap into a treasure chest of knowledge that we had not previously realized was there.  Usually we learn about ourselves gradually over a long period of time from quiet introspection.  Some of us have learned to tap into the…

One of the most important natural laws of case acceptance states: “People don’t buy initially because they are enthusiastic about the service, but because you are.” Enthusiasm is contagious. Let me illustrate with an example from a most unlikely place.

There it a wonderful feeling that comes at the end of the day when you realize that you accomplished the things you planned to accomplish when you started the day.   If sometimes you end the day only wishing that you had done so, the information that follows will be very helpful.

You awake each morning with a purpose.   The day is something you can control,…

guidance to what you do.

Now you know that you can think your way to success.  You just need to choose the pattern that seems…

Perhaps you have not heard of James Dyson who is a very accomplished modern inventor.  One of the reasons for his relative lack of prominence is that one or more of his inventions made such an improvement on present day products that it greatly reduced sales of the current products.

He couldn’t get any present vacuum cleaner company to produce his…

I t would be so boring to have a singular interest and to be always exercising it. Those with whom you associate would surely prefer someone with a broader interest in a variety filled world.

John Quincy enjoyed introducing variety into his life.  He was always seeking the company of people who had a variety of interests.   He had a law degree and used his…

BEING A BETTER LISTENER

Maybe someone you know quite well accuses you of being a poor listener.  You might consider running

a little test. 

Check your assumptions.  See if you think you are already sure you know what is going on in the head of the other listeners.  Run a test by asking a question such as “so you mean,” or “so you are…
