Shake off what most people might perceive as failure.
Talking to myself this morning, deciding what steps will I take today towards my Goal. And some mornings decisions are easy especially when things go your way and what you worked on gives you the results you expected... wright? You are inspired to take more action, that's when self-motivation is not a problem at all.
But what happens when for a couple of days things just don't go the way you wanted them to go, when it seams like everything is just biting you in the butt?
What happens then? How do you act, how do you decide to use your energy then, will make the difference and always has.
Passion, persistence, stepping out of our comfort zone, and most important getting back up after failure...these are the traits of a true champion! Getting up again and doing it different and better.
How do I find the inner power? How do I keep advancing? How do very successful people do this?
It takes confidence and self belief. You can have all the knowledge in the world all certifications, diplomas but nothing will help you if you don't believe in yourself.
Do you know you can have all the plans in the world - but if you don't work on your mindset you'll be stuck there for a while.
We must spend as much time on the MINDSET for SUCCESS as we are on the marketing and planning and all that which will be useless without the mindset for success.
The Success JOURNEY is one of the most profound personal growth Paths you can take.
And any new level of success you achieve becomes a new level of personal growth.
We all have amazing talent and potential within us.
How do you use yours?
Hope you give this some serious thought so you don't have to be stuck there for a while.
Please leave your comments or questions bellow.

Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.
Even if you fall on your face, you're still moving forward.
Starting 2011 - we can get into it like a lost sheep or WE CAN Make up our Mind we are going to do it Big , we are going to do it Different.
So, I decided to go for the second. What did you decide?
The way I look at it : If what we are doing isn't working the way we want it to work, don't be afraid to change it , start approaching it a little different, right?
Sounds easy enough.
I mean Commitment to a New Goal it's easy, no big deal (especially for the first 2 weeks of the New Year ha,ha,ha) but buying into it, keep our commitment, creating new habits and beliefs not so.
Choosing New Habits and committing to a new way of doing things is an Art I would say.
So if you decided to do it different and by that I mean do it better and bigger this year, here are some aspects you could incorporate in the process, because changing habits is a process, a system.
1. Don't change things by fighting existing reality, to change things you need to create a New Model - that makes the existing model obsolete.
2. Write it down - make your commitment in writing, sign it and give your written commitment to someone you respect and trust - This is like a Policy against failure. Make 2 copies and keep one.
3. Read your commitment out loud every morning - first thing in the morning and just before going to bed.
And here we go getting into Habits again...hum, fun part begins.
ACT!
P.S. Now make sure your signature means something, something as simple as keeping your promise to yourself will build or chip at YOUR SELF IMAGE.
Please share your experience with us and if you have any questions please ask, it would be my pleasure to compare ideas with you.

Do you believe it's Talent or Practice?
Do you believe it's Talent or Practice or Hard work?
If you rely on talent to get you there, will it get you there? Where?
Well, where you're going in life. Where are you going? What do you really want?
And before you'll be willing to make the kind of commitment that is required to get there my friend, you must have a very clear answer to that question.
So, don't read any further until you make a commitment that you'll take 30 min. today and write down the answer to that question.
Do you believe you'll achieve higher levels of success if you poses innate talent for excelling in your field?
OR
Do you believe very specific practice will get you to higher levels of success?
If you have the right answer and you believe that, there is a chance that you will do the work that is necessary to achieve high level performance, to achieve world class levels of success.
So what do you choose to Believe?
Please share with us your answer?

Stop seeing yourself the way you are; start seeing yourself the way you want to be.
Stop seeing yourself the way you are; start seeing yourself the way you want to be.
How fascinating.
While doing some Self Development, practicing some things....that I must improve in(I do actually have some of those) ha,ha,ha, I found myself just part paying attention to what I was doing, while another part of my energy was focussed on worrying about not making a decision on flight to beautiful scuba-diving destination "Corn Island"....
Re-focus Lorena, re-focus! So, I do, just to find myself off track again....Then the fascinating part happens.
This "little voice" said : It's O.K. Lorena, you always figure out how to do it in the end anyways.
Good "little voice"! Supportive, powerful,empowering, building on Self Image. But is this always the case? Am I always empowering myself? You know what mean?
Then I stopped to think: It might be worth making a habit of listening to what I say to myself in other circumstances as well. What do I believe about myself in other areas of life?
You know, our beliefs can make us or break us. Our beliefs can help us move towards our Purpose, Vision, Goals or in the opposite direction, or away from.
It is our BELIEFS that will take us towards higher levels of success in all areas of life.
Call to Action :
Take time today and think, I mean really think.
What are your beliefs? Your core beliefs? The ones that you act on without giving it any thought.
Write it down.
Will pick it up here in our next post and take next step, to replace some of our beliefs that don't serve us any longer.
Please leave your thoughts below.

Here is the secret to success: Work like hell!
Here is the secret to success: Work like hell!
Self Development is becoming more and more my favorite thing to do. And if you frame the definition of Self Development right, you can make everything that happens during any day a Lesson / an opportunity to grow in awareness or as a human being.
A Lesson in what we want to Be or do, or a Lesson on what we don't want to Be or do.
Blaming other people or our circumstances, not taking Responsibility for our Actions, for our thoughts, our Results in all areas of life will just send you around and around in circles your entire LIFE.
We can't change other people. We know that....Right?
The only thing we can change in life is our awareness, how we approach a situation the next time around. In other words taking responsibility and approaching a situation or a person differently next time around.
The question is how do we grow in AWARENESS?
Well, Successful people get it done in one easy step… the extra one!
Study/Learn everyday, take time for Self Development everyday, Practice everyday.
And most important crate NEW HABITS continuously / habits that will take you towards your Purpose, Vision and Goals.
Practice becoming better at what you do both personally and professionally everyday.
Sounds easy enough?Right?
But, if it's so easy WHY most people are not doing it?
You were not Programed to do it "That Way", and a lot of the things you do must be Re-Programed, well that's if you want to improve what you do, improve your life, your success.
Most of us can't do it alone. We need mentors to help us look at thing from a different prospective, help us get out of our Comfort Zone on regular bases, create new habits, stay motivated and taking steps daily.
Call to Action : Make 2011 different, take a Quantum Leap on this beautiful Journey you are on. Life is short my friends, make the best of everyday you've got.
DO THE THINGS YOU REALLY WANT TO DO IN THIS LIFE.
Surround yourself with people that know where they are going in life,people that are going somewhere specifically, find a mentor to get you out of your Comfort Zone daily.
Make a decision to start TODAY you've already waited enough, you've been in the same position in life enough.
Grow , take the extra step my friends.
Share with us your commitment to do better in 2011. What is your first step?

Don't give away your power... Join "The 1%" Group
Isn't it interesting how we give other people and circumstances credit for our challenges in life?
Don't give away your power my friends...
Have you noticed that there's the Group of people that I call "The 1% " that have the "Anything is possible" attitude, and the willingness to take action & they excel far greater in life than those who blame others for their limitations.
"The 1%" choose their thoughts, their feelings and their actions. Always!
Call to ACTION : Starting Today make a decision to keep your energy focused on where you are going in life,on your Purpose, keep your focus on Improving yourself, drop yesterday's mistakes and just focus your energy on how you can do "Today" better.
Write down one area of your life where you are limiting yourself. Then, write out your dream results in that area.
All the "Results" you have manifested in your life are a result of your thoughts.
Talking to successful people provokes us to grow, to think biger, to think in dimensions in which the average person never goes to, change the direction of our life. Surround yourself with people that have positive attitude and know where they are going in life, who have a Purpose.
And remember focusing on what you don't like about you takes away any energy you have to change it.
