Success In Life

The practice of living in the positive attitude of faith and optimistically persevering are indispensable success factors for any great accomplishment

All human beings have the innate success-power to direct their own lives.

 

Imaginative goal-setting activates this power.

 

In other words, deliberately envisioning what you want to manifest sets the manifestation process of that outcome into motion.

 

To be successful, harness your power of creative visualization by imagining yourself living in the conditions, goals or outcomes that you desire.

 

However, don’t make the common mistake of presuming that the easy and immediate fulfillment of your desires automatically follows when you imagine yourself succeeding.

 

When you visualize what you want you set the manifestation process into motion and then life starts delivering to you the exact conditions that you need to go through in order to manifest or accomplish what you desire.

 

It may be that you need to pass through extremely challenging situations to manifest what you want or to achieve your goal.

 

But to get where you want to go you may have to pass through difficult conditions that you manifested through previous negative visualizing, like worrying about failing or expecting to be disappointed.

 

You may have to first overcome severe obstacles to develop the abilities, strength, and knowledge you need to finally be successful at manifesting your intended outcome.

 

However, once you visualize your desired outcome, there really is no need for you to feel anxious or disappointed. Whatever occurs is exactly what you asked for, because going through it is necessary to arrive at where you want to go.

 

Avoid diverting the manifestation process by imagining that your situation is NOT what you need to go through to progress along the path to success, that your present difficulty or let-down is a sign that you will NOT succeed, that your efforts to achieve success have led to failure.

 

When you envision failure, feel disappointed or worry about your future you are manifesting more of what you do NOT want.

 

So after you envision your success, TRUST that everything that happens next is exactly what you need to go through to achieve your goals and objectives.

 

The practice of living in the positive attitude of faith and optimistically persevering are indispensable success factors for any great accomplishment.

 

Difficult circumstances give you the perfect opportunity to let go of discouraging visualizations and worry-habits.

 

So here is how the power of creative visualization REALLY works as a key to success:

 

Every experience that happens to you PERFECTLY ALIGNS with your visualization of success in life.

The Success Wisdom of Waxing Positive

Think Positive

Whatever your present challenge is, focus on positive goal-setting and you will come up with an idea to advance towards your goal.

You will probably never come across success stories in which the highly accomplished man or woman plunged into despair when things did not work out as planned.

 

When facing a challenge, apply the wise success strategy of waxing positive.

 

A positive attitude tunes you into solutions and opportunities.

 

When we wax negatively, we permit a habitual emotional reaction to tune us into more problems.

 

Do you complain when things do not turn out the way you had wished?

 

Complaining reinforces negative attitudes and it will attract conditions that you find even more frustrating.

 

Whatever your present challenge is, focus on positive goal-setting and you will come up with an idea to advance towards your goal.

 

To be successful, work free of the complaining habit, so you can focus on where you want to go and continue moving toward success.

 

Wisdom is knowing how to proceed in line with what you really want to accomplish.

 

When we slip into feelings of discouragement, frustration or insecurity, we block our access to wisdom.

 

To access success wisdom, expect to know what you can do to achieve any goal you have set for yourself.

 

Positive expectation is the mindset that prepares you to turn the way things are into the way you want things to be.

 

By keeping your mind free of negative judgment or negative opinions regarding what is happening, you preserve your creative freedom to recognize and take advantage of the opportunity to achieve your goals and objectives.

 

When you trust that you can and will succeed you demonstrate an internal success factor shared by the most accomplished and fulfilled individuals.

 

When you judge a situation as negative, you blind yourself to its positives and miss the possibilities for succeeding, which is NOT how to be successful.

 

So don’t wax negative when things don’t turn out as planned.  Take command of your mood, attitude and thoughts. Apply the success wisdom of waxing POSITIVE.

Importance Of Positive Thinking

To apply wisdom for success, ALLOW yourself to fully experience however you happen to be feeling

There is an important emotional dimension to wisdom for success: however you feel is okay.

Don’t resist your feelings of unhappiness, resentment, frustration, shame, regret or insecurity.

Emotional Wisdom For Success:

When you accept, embrace, and fully TRUST how you feel, how you feel turns joy.

 

We students of positive thinking and motivational self-help need to remember this.

Much of the self-help success tips that we study focus on the importance of positive thinking and positive feelings, and rightly so.

But we need to remember to NOT by fear anxiety, resist discouragement, judge ourselves as “wrong” when we feel angry, over-burdened or even defeated.

To apply wisdom for success, ALLOW yourself to fully experience however you happen to be feeling.

Invite your feelings in, EMBRACE them. They will turn into beautiful harmony.

One vital thing to know for success in life, though, is what to do with your THINKING when you feel down.

It can certainly help to focus on inspirational quotes and motivational sayings.

But what is most important for success in life is to NOT indulge in thinking that makes you feel down or makes you feel worse.

If you cannot engage in positive thinking, at least keep your mind free of NEGATIVE thinking.

Try this wisdom for success exercise:

  1. Spend a few moments allowing yourself to experience how you are feeling in the present moment.
  2. If your mind begins to wander, immediately shift your attention from your thinking back to your feeling.
  3. Remain aware of your body to release any tensions that you might be feeling, so you relax fully and consciously to the flow of your feelings.

 

Practice this for at least 1 minute each day.

The more you practice this, the more you develop trust in how you feel.

In this blog, please share your experience of this self-help exercise, including your thoughts about it, and any questions you might have.

So when you feel down, apply the wisdom for success of THOUGHTLESSLY experiencing your feelings.

For instance, if you happen to feel lonely over the holidays, or too physically impaired to celebrate with gusto, just feel how you feel.

If your mind begins showing you a sad or frightening mental movie about your life, take your attention off your thoughts and focus it instead directly onto your present state of feeling.

Don’t judge yourself for NOT being able to apply positive thinking. Trust how you feel as you apply this wisdom for success, you will soon find yourself feeling better and better and better.

To employ success secrets like confidence building, routinely and deliberately visualize yourself achieving results that match your wildest desires

Nothing is a source of confidence building like success.

But visualizing yourself succeeding comes very close.

Individuals who have achieved great success are extremely self-confident relative to their area of success.

Individuals whom I have known who have amassed great wealth, for instance, have the attitude that even if they lost their wealth, they feel totally confident that they could rebuild their wealth.

Confidence building is one of the great success secrets.

Notice how you feel after you accomplish something important to you.  You probably feel more self-confident.

I have found that visualizing myself succeeding is also confidence building.

By contrast, visualizing myself producing disappointing results causes my confidence to wane and my insecurity to rise.

To employ success secrets like confidence building, I therefore routinely and deliberately visualize myself achieving results that match my wildest desires.

The results of this practice are wonderful.  I feel less stress, less anxiety, more inspiration and more fulfillment every year, and I am delighted as I witness my positive dreams coming true!

Knowing success secrets is useless unless you put them to work.  Here is an exercise for doing just that:

  1. Make a list of three accomplishments that would thrill you.
  2. Spend one minute focusing your mind on visualizing yourself easily accomplishing each.
  3. Then, imagine the feeling of being absolutely self-confident about your ability to achieve those goals.  Spend 1 minute on this for each item on your list.

Please share in this blog your experience and the results
of this confidence building exercise.

Embrace Your DIS-Comfort Zone

Wisdom For Personal Growth

Personal growth can be described as the wisdom of embracing your discomfort zone for higher success

In the Wisie for Success video, “Beyond Your Comfort Zone”, we read these inspirational words for personal growth:

“Beyond the area where you’re already comfortable, there are new possibilities waiting for you.”

We usually resist stepping outside our comfort zone, as when some technological innovation forces us to change our ways.

And yet, once we finally embrace the change, we find the innovation usually helps us to be more efficient and effective.

One of the unavoidable laws for achieving higher levels of success is that you must evolve beyond the habitual modes you currently find comfortable.

Personal growth can be described as the wisdom of embracing your discomfort zone for higher success.

Consider these inspirational words from that same success-wisdom Wisie video:

“Everything you experience is contained in what you expect to experience…”

These inspirational words remind us of the fact that expecting something to be difficult makes it difficult.

When you have to do something that threatens your comfort-zone, avoid projecting in your imagination that it WILL be difficult.

Relax by staying present – that is, focused on the present moment, and handle what you have before you in an unstrained, relaxed, step-by-step manner.

This helps you to move THROUGH your DIS-comfort zone in a more COMFORTABLE way.

To achieve greater success or to overcome a setback in what do YOU need to step outside your comfort zone?

What wisdom have you gained through your life-experience that relates to the power of expectation?

In this blog, share your thoughts and questions about the wisdom of embracing your DIS-comfort zone.

Remember this: life is set up in a way that insures you will never be able to stay in your comfort zone for long.

Inevitably you will have to go beyond it, because personal growth and life are really one.

key to success

One self-help key for achieving your greatest goals may for you to pay more attention to how you are feeling in the present moment

There is no greater power than happiness for achieving success, as the following inspirational quotes suggest:

  • When I am feeling happy I am at my best. When I become too serious my creativity shuts down and I find myself clashing more in my relationships.

  • I have learned that I simply have to be enjoying myself at work to as productive as I can be.

  • When I’m feeling really good inside I notice that things just seem to work out and fall into place.  But when I’m feeling down, everything turns into a struggle.

Of course these inspirational quotes are not intended to downplay the need for self-discipline, mental focus, and a sense of responsibility, but happiness seems all to often to be underrated.

One self-help key for achieving your greatest goals may for you to pay more attention to how you are feeling in the present moment.

By permitting yourself to enjoy the journey instead of waiting until you achieve your goal to finally relax enough to be happy, you will be more successful.

What are YOU waiting for to be happy?

What goals do you believe you need to achieve, what problems do you first need to solve, to permit yourself to enjoy your life and work?

In this blog, share your thoughts and questions about
the self-help power of happiness as it relates to success.

It may be that the old saying “it sounds too good to be true” is preventing you from tapping into the great success-power that is joy.

But there is really only one way to find out if you can succeed joyfully, and that is to risk an experiment. Each day deliberately practice living and working a little more calmly, confidently and joyfully, to see if the inspirational quotes that opened this blog can also apply to you.
