Success - The Game

 Martial arts. I used to train everywhere I went. I wasn't typical and I took private lessons for the most part. I had a passion for it and I wasn't satisfied with moving at the pace of the slowest person in the class. It probably cost me 8 or 9 times more, but I learned quite a bit...and I bypassed years of classroom training.

I would always reverse-engineer the moves so that I could gain an understanding of why it is designed that way. I would practice soloand imagine a situation where I would put this to use, for the sake of training my mind. There's no use in knowing the techniques if you're going to panic in a real-life situation. The only way to learn this, was to place myself in real situations. But I knew the subconscious mind didn't know the difference between real or an emotionalized visualization.

I immediately noticed how my body responded differently in pretend situations than in a classroom setting. I felt different mechanisms kick in, though at the time I didn't know what they were. I'd experience tunnel vision...advanced heart rate. I felt the blood rush to the outer muscles of the body.

I stayed in these moments to figure out exactly what was happening...what I was feeling. I then brought it up to others that were much better than myself, and while they didn't all know what was going on scientifically, they knew how to change it.

"When you're caught in a real situation, convince your mind that you're only sparring..." And boy did I convince. The mechanisms did not kick in and block my thought process.

In short, when you're dealing with life, with goals of any kind, you're going to be faced with a "real" opposition. This opposition will weigh in on your emotions and restrain you from making the right decisions. I tell people to take this challenge like a game. It will keep your mind clear.

The achievement of your goal is the finish line, and every action you take towards your goal brings you one step closer. Your opponent's job is to stop you from getting to your goal, and the only way he can do this is by creating things that cancel out your action. If the bridge that you intended to cross is burning down, you won't give up on your goal. Your focus(in the game) is on the end result, so you only tell yourself, "Well that option didn't work. How else am I going to get across?" Your focus is on the end result...not on the current circumstance.

In life, we have learned to look at circumstances, rather than end results. Time to change your perspective.

Motivational Speaker - Overcoming Depression 

 You'll be given a taste of science right now that will grant you the keys to any emotional state that you want to create or undo. I am a motivational speaker on success, typically on financial success, but I come from a neurological angle. This information is the key to any achievement. After all, success is not money, but achievement.

We're going to roll fast.

All of our actions are ultimately an end result of our beliefs. We are commanded by our beliefs and habits. Our environment supports these. The three together make up our CONDITIONING. We only do 4 percent what we desire to do and 96 percent what we're CONDITIONED to do. Beliefs are neural networks on the subconscious mind. They are pathways that we follow...pathways of instruction. The subconscious mind is responsible for 96-98 percent of our actions and perceptions. We don't see with our eyes, rather our eyes only allow light to enter just like our ears allow sound to enter. It is our brain that deciphers what that data actually is. So we see with our brains. In a nutshell, here's how it works. It is important that you know this.

We have something call the Reticular Activating System(RAS) that works like a filter between the communication of our conscious and our subconscious mind. It is like a search engine that is looking for any and every bit of data that is relevant to your beliefs. Whatever it finds that is relevant, it sends it over to our conscious mind and only then do we consciously recognize it. An example would be how you may buy a new car, and suddenly you're noticing every car on the road that's like yours. It's not that those cars were not there before, you just weren't tuned to see them.

There is also another mechanism in the brain called the PSYCHO-CYBERNETIC MECHANISM(PCM). This mechanism is responsible for making sure that we are always staying within the boundaries of our beliefs. If we step out, it sends a chemical into the body that causes doubt, fear, and anxiety. This in turn, causes us to back away from whatever we're doing, and get back to what the brain thinks is SAFETY. It determines what "safety" is by how often we travel that path or entertain that belief.

So now, let's put this into an example. You believe you're in a state of depression (or whatever it may be). Your brain knows what you think depression is so it gives your RAS instruction to let you recognize everything that supports that belief. The articles, the shows, the songs, the people, etc. You'll be reading of symptoms of depression, noticing that you have exactly that. Everything that is pro-happiness or opposing to depression, spits out because your RAS thinks it's not what you're looking for.

Somehow you take the next step and force yourself to read a book that just seems like it will help. The hope you find in the book hits a part of your conscious mind, causing you to feel for a moment, that you can overcome this. It gets placed into your declarative memory system, and your brain sends a chemical called dopamine into your body which makes you feel happy and pumped that you will change. However, the declarative memory system(explicit memory system) is not the part of the brain that makes changes. The objective is to get this over to the implicit memory system...the embedded beliefs.

By changing the beliefs, we change the things that the RAS is going to let you consciously recognize. We also reset what the PCM recognizes as "safe" so that it stops juicing you with doubts and fears that keep you from achieving.

The short version of changing your beliefs is summed up as, "What you constantly hold in your mind and focus on with emotion, gets impressed onto your subconscious mind." In turn, if you still focus on your current beliefs, you are still feeding them. So your objective is to focus on things that are pro-happiness for you...things that you would only dream of doing. It will be difficult. It won't be painful, just difficult because it will take your full commitment. People don't succeed because they do not determine to do WHATEVER it takes to change.

It's up to you. But it's a world of healing and abundance. And it's yours for the believing.

Motivational Speaker - Changing From The Inside Out 

 The outward is simply an expression of what's going on within your brain. People who are always looking for negative things in others will always have negative things coming their way. They may utterly hate negative things... but laws are laws: your brain only let's you see what it is programmed to look for.

The conscious mind is only responsible for 2-4 percent of our actions and perceptions. The rest of it is subconscious. Try to understand that our actions are simply a result of what we believe. Our beliefs are neural networks on our subconscious mind. They form our perceptions. They are responsible for how we see things. Did you ever notice how after you bought a certain car you are suddenly noticing other cars like yours? Were they not there before? No, your brain just spit that info out before it was able to come to your conscious recognition. It does this by something called a Reticular Activating System(RAS) which is a search engine based on your beliefs.

Life will bring you what you expect. What you expect, not necessarily what you desire. It will bring you what you desire only after you train you mind to expect it. This brings us to another phrase: "I'll believe it when I see it." The phrase in actuality, is completely backwards. It should say, "I'll see it when I believe it."

All of the upcoming info applies to all and any part of life, but because I typically speak motivationally on success, I'll speak in that language. Success is not money. It's achievement. Our brain allows us to recognize music or cars or smells or whatever is part of it's belief or habits system. This system is our conditioning. It is 50 percent genetic and 50 percent environment. So if our conditioning is that of lack, our brain takes that as instruction and makes it easy for us by filtering out whatever is not part of our conditioning. So we only see the articles, the tv shows, the statistics that support our conditioning. Everything else is equally present, but it is spit out as irrelevant data. Articles about success are not registered...and if they get considered, the brain will send a chemical in the body that causes doubt, fear, and anxiety. It does this because it feels you are stepping out of your "comfort zone".

No one with a conditioning of lack can maintain wealth for longer than a short period of time unless they change from the inside. This is why 85 percent of people who win the lottery are in the same or worse condition within 3 years of winning. The conditioning must be changed. This is a difficult process, and it takes time and discipline. But life will give you what you demand of it...what you're conditioned to find. It's the way we were created. It's a divine design.

Hard-wired Failure - Motivational Speaker

 Why is it that 85 percent of lottery winners are in the same or worse position that they were in, within 3 years of their winning? Why is it that soon after you get a raise, you are back in the same spot you were in before the raise? Coincidence? Never. Destiny.

There is a mechanism in the brain responsible for keeping us at our current level of success. It will consistantly return us to its setting, whether we go below or above that point. It is called the PSYCHO-CYBERNETIC MECHANISM(PCM). It job is to maintain the set of instructions that it is receiving, that our beliefs recognize as "safe". Not safe like, "it's safer to have a million bucks than to not have money" but like, "we've been traveling this path so often and for so long, that it's obviously safe." The body likes comfort zones and the PCM will try to keep us there.

How? Chemicals. As soon as we leave our programmed comfort zones, the PCM kicks in, and chemicals are released into the body that cause doubt, fear, and anxiety. Think of this: when you're getting ready to cross the road and you suddenly see a car flying over the hill, fear of getting hit draws you back to the side. The PCM kicked in by reflecting on the embedded belief that if you get hit, it's...well, it's not a good thing, so it shot this chemical into your body that successfully kept you from crossing.

Now think of this: you have an embedded belief that you will never have a lot of money, or that money comes very hard. After all, you're only making $30,000 per year. The moment you are presented with literature that is contrary to that, such as advice or strategies to build wealth, your super faithful PCM goes off, sending you the juice, and keeping you from going into foreign territory. "That's just a scam. There's no way I could ever do that. It's too big of a risk." And yet again, the outer noise drowns out the inner song.

That's the first dose. If you somehow step beyond that, you'll get more much stronger doses. Like knock-out editions. The only way you can ever win, is by resetting what the PCM recognizes as safe. Your conditioning - your beliefs and habits. This is changed by changing your immediate environment. It takes long. A few months of consistant focus. Oh, and you can't fail. If you do you have to start again. The "don't give up" part comes in from the beginning until the time you have successfully changed the setting.
It is summed up like this: if you don't commit yourself to getting your goal at all costs, you won't win. Being somewhat interested will only waste your time. Your neurology won't change from just interest.

To create the new belief, determine what you want it to be. Is it that you have a monthly income of a million dollars? Then focus on that with all your feeling and emotion. Take time to do it every morning as soon as you get up. Do it several times throughout the day, and again at night before falling asleep. Do this for many weeks without failing. You must find a way to outdo your own negative influence on yourself. If you can do this, you have mastered success.

Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part 4) 

 This is part 4 of the series "Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence..." If you haven't read the preceding articles, now is your que. We've spoken of self-image, visualizations, and created the base of a new set of habits. By now you are aware of the three factors in the formula: beliefs, habits, and environment. Remember that because we are changing the beliefs you hold of yourself, we can't rely on that factor, but have to play with the other two. We've already juiced the habits. Now, we must look at the environment.

Recall that the achievement of your goal is simply an end result of certain beliefs and habits and that your immediate environment is the container wherein these beliefs and habits are held. Your immediate environment is what supports your beliefs and habits...which ultimately becomes the achievement of your goal. The problem with most who attempt to change is that their environment, the container, is not constructed in a way to be able to support their goal.

It is because of this that people give up. It's not that they're necessarily unwilling but unprepared. Did you ever notice how you may go to a seminar, listen to a motivational speaker, read a good book, etc. and be totally convinced that you not only can, but WILL change? And then you leave and within a few hours, the motivational effect dies? It's because your environment does not support the goal that you have in mind to achieve. It doesn't support what you heard. So your objective is to change your environment to what will serve you.

Your immediate environment is the books/articles that you read, the music you listen to, the shows you watch, the people you spend time with. The last one is probably the most important one, but the other ones play an incredible role as well. Scientists say that we're the average of the 5 people we spend the most time with. Your first job is to take some time and find people that have characteristics like those that you want, and then start surrounding yourself with them. Surround yourself with people that do not give up...people that are achievers. Read stories of people who did not give up. Don't watch shows that have negative things in them. IT WILL REFLECT IN YOUR LIFE!!

Start looking up videos of people who have come from the bottom to the top, because they didn't give up. Do whatever it takes to throw off any negative influence that is coming your way. Don't tell people who don't believe in you or your efforts. It's that simple. Just don't tell them.

You must start taking action in the direction that you intend to end up. If you want to be confident in meeting people, start being the one to approach them. Pretend until you have enough to really do it. Pretend a lot. It won't happen on its own.

Remember this: You can't drive into your future by looking in your rear-view mirror. You'll crash no matter how smart you are. And one more thing: Once you have mastered the ability to overturn you OWN negative influence on yourself, you have then mastered success...and any achievement. This means, when you are feeling down, in THAT moment, jerk your self out of it by reflecting on a positive influence by reflecting on your goal.

Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part Three)

 If you have not "Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part 1)..." and part 2, it'd be a great idea to check that out. In the preceding articles, we covered self-image and visualizations. In this article, we'll put it into a system.

We mentioned how our habits, beliefs, and immediate environment work together, and how if you change any one of the three factors, the formula still stays the same, meaning the other two factors will adjust accordingly. Because we're working to change the self-image, the beliefs we hold of ourselves, we can't depend on the "beliefs" factor. So we work with the habits and environment.

Proper physical exercise gives you great health, and proper mental exercise gives you great wealth...great achievement.

You're dealing with the most important person in your life: YOU. You're going to need to start treating yourself the same way you treat the person you most love, and we'll develop a system for it. How would you treat this person? You'd probably spend time alone with them. You'd probably do things for them. You'd make them smile, and buy things for them and make them happy. That's what you're gonna need to do for yourself.

Here are the rules:
1. You come before anything else on your schedule. You'll make time. If you don't, you'll fail.
1. You meet with yourself every morning before your day starts, for a minimum of 15 minutes.
1. You commit to this for 30 days minimum.(The moment you commit, you won. Look up the meaning of commit.)If you fail at any point, you must restart.

Here is the habit readjustment. Take a piece of paper, and write "I WON" on it. Staple that paper on top of your decription(your vision). Every morning before you get out of bed, think of your goal...you new self-image. Don't compare it to what you think you are, just visualize for a minute or two. Get up and pick up the paper with your vision on it. Look at the top page, and read out loud, "I WON." Pretend like you won. Put that smirk on your face, that half-smile or whatever. Now go somewhere nobody can hear you, and where you can walk/jog alone. Emotion is well activated with motion, so you're going to need to start moving. Right before you start, read your vision out loud. Be sure it is written in the present tense, like, "I am so confident. I am very fit..." rather than, "I will be..."

Now it's time to start moving. It's fine to listen to music if you prefer. You must get in a thankful state and you can do this by just saying "Thank You" over and over again. "Thank You...for my opposition, thank you for my health, thank you for my..." As you are moving, say very powerfully, "I WON! I WON! I WON!" and keep repeating it to the beat of whatever form of exercise you are doing. Start adding in your different incantations, like, "I am so confident with...." and "I easily achieve all of my goals" or whatever you determine to have. Alternate your "Thank You"'s in there. Wait, it gets worse.

It is not enough to just say it for the sake of saying it. You MUST CHANGE YOUR PHYSIOLOGY! You gotta have the expressions...the "I'm taking down the world" look. But watch what it does to how you feel! It's awesome and you will begin to look forward to this because of how empowered you feel. Scientifically, your brain is causing your whole body to respond. I do this every day. In my car. On a trail where people rarely go. In fact, I'm as idiot as they get...I will be shouting at myself! But I also accomplished and continue to accomplish incredible things...by changing my beliefs. I'll be yelling "THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! BRING IT ON! BRING ME YOUR BEST GAME!! DO I LOOK LIKE SOMEONE THAT BACKS DOWN?? JOKES!" And then there are days where all I say is, "Thank You, Thank You" the whole time, all the while my goal is playing through my head.

This must be done before you start your day. It will be working in you all day. You'll find yourself repeating "Thank You" regularly.

At night, look at your vision right before bed, and read it out loud, starting and finishing with, "I won" and immediately imagining it. These are a few habits that you will have to upkeep with all faith. You will start noticing changes very quickly, but do not stop before at least 30 days, of unfailing practice, have passed.

In the next article, we'll cover information on your immediate environment.

The last part will come soon.

Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part Two)

 If you haven't read "Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part 1)..." this is your signal.

You have your description on paper now. Creating it into a mental image is done by reflecting on the description and visualizing yourself doing all of that. Visualizing is watching a movie play through your head, where you are doing everything that you described. However, visualizing is only effective if you mix emotion in it. The visualization takes place in your conscious mind, precisely the faculty of the imagination. The emotions are part of your subconscious mind, and this is where we are trying to transfer the image to.

We are going to make this image a part of your belief system, and beliefs are neural networks on the subconscious mind. These neural networks are what command our bodies to do what they do. Emotions are particularly strong parts of these networks, and when they are activated, think of them as becoming sticky. Whatever you are holding in your conscious mind at the time gets stuck to these "emotions" and bypasses some of the filters that normally stop things from coming to your subconscious mind. This is why things that you were seeing or experiencing during an emotional time, are deeply ingrained in your subconscious mind. So if you activate these emotions, especially very strong ones, and you're visualizing what you intend to be at the same time, it will be much more readily accepted by your subconscious mind.

This image is your goal. The achievement of a goal is a result of certain beliefs and habits. The environment is what supports beliefs and habits. Immediate environment, that is. Like the people you spend time with, the books you read, shows you watch, etc. The three work very tightly together: environment, beliefs, and habits. If anyone of them is adjusted, the other two automatically adjust accordingly.

However, we are trying to create new beliefs, so we can't rely on that part. We must work with the habits and environment. I will cover that in the next article: "Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part 3)..."

In the meantime, look at your goal, and visualize for at least ten minutes today, and again right before you go to sleep. That will begin to prepare you for the system.

Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part one)

 You got it. Let me tell you how. And you're hearing it right from the horse's mouth. I was at the bottom of this can. Now I'm close to what I determine the top to be. In my eyes, that would be absolute confidence, success, and humility.

We all know what "lack of confidence" is, so I'm not going to give you my story. I'll just give you the key and show you where to use it.

We are a product of our self-image. In other words, we are what we are because of what we believe ourselves to be. The image we hold of ourselves gets programmed into our subconscious mind and then our brain takes it as an instruction to find or make that. The problem is that most of us are unaware that this is how it works so we ruin it for others and don't correct it in ourselves. Because we don't know that it works this way, particularly when we're kids, we let others create this image of what we are. The system still works the same way, in that the image held gets imprinted onto the subconscious mind.

So the formula is very simple. Drinking it is the difficult part. Kinda. The key is to create the image you want of yourself and hold it in your thoughts. Focus on it...feel it.

You must get precise...no exceptions. Get a piece of paper and start writing. There is a psychological reason for this. Figure out everything of how you want to be. How you handle certain situations, how you talk to people, what/who you look like when you talk/walk, how you eat and exercise, etc. Figure out also how you want people to treat you. Determine what your occupation is or what kind of company or car you own. This should take you no less than 30 minutes to do initially. If it does, you're not being precise enough and you might as well hang it up.

You will add to this image over the next few days things as they come to your mind...as you see different people/things. After you write the initial description, proceed to "Self Esteem - A Call To Confidence (Part 2)" for the next instructions.
