Constant Motivation required...

You know this week I have realised again how easy it is to slip into old ways.

I have been working online and offering help to my visitors for years right?

I have been giving advice, tips and techniques about how important it is to believe in yourself. I have always known this to be true.

This week I have been continuing to work on a big project I have for my website and as with everything worth doing there are ups and downs. It is critical not to become negative when you experience one of those downs.

It is a hard, lonely road when you face your problems and challenges alone. I decided to get help and now have a mentor - someone to help me and motivate me to try new things and reach for success.

This week I started to rethink what I was doing and negativity got the better of me. Yes I pretended to myself that I was considering the worst case scenario but really I was just preparing myself to limit my success.

Do you believe in the law of attraction?

If you think you can do something you will. If you think you cannot then you will not. You attract the things in your life according to your thinking.

I do believe this.

So why did I start to think negatively? This won't work. My results will not be that good. This is a problem, that is a problem. Shame about this and pity about that...

I needed to get positive and my friend told me exactly what I needed to hear...

"Karl you have GOT to be more positive..."

"Get your head in the game and stop all the negativity ... think BIG and you will make BIG ... put a ceiling on yourself and you will fail rapidly!"

How true. You see, we all go backwards sometimes but I'm here to tell you today that you need to stop yourself at those times and decide to move forward again.

Self improvement is the most worthwhile thing yet it requires self motivation and constant work. When you get down, don't stay there - do something to help yourself...

We'll talk about what you can do to help yourself next time but for today one peice of advice:

Get the help of a friend or if you have a major project in mind get the help of a professional. When someone is supporting what you're doing and there to help you when you fall or stumble it can make it so much easier.

Purpose

I've just prepared the November issue of my newsletter to keep
you up to date with what's happening at more-selfesteem.com and
I'll give you the link in a moment..

Your self esteem depends on your goals and the direction of your
life doesn't it?

But this week I would like to ask you - why are you doing what
you are doing?

Whatever you are trying to do in your life, if you're clear why
you are doing it you will have something very precious...

Purpose.

So spend some time this weekend thinking about the reasons why
you are making the decisions you are and the why's behind your
actions and words.

Thanks!!

What are you Working For?

No, I'm not only referring to work here but any goal you're trying to achieve right now.

Before you can make progress towards any improvement or goal you need to ask yourself one all-important question. This step is often forgotten..

Ask yourself why.

Why are you doing whatever it is that you are doing?

If you focus on the why's behind what you think you want you will be so much more certain to succeed. You will be clearer when you need to decide. Your actions will be designed to help you make your dream reality.

Often low self esteem takes hold because of confusion about your purpose and reasons for what you're doing. Self-doubt grows out of confusion and indecision.

Don't be content to ask yourself what you want but also ask why you want it?

Go deeper and you will understand yourself better and be surer of your path ahead.

Always ask yourself why and what it is that you're really in search of. When you spend time digging into your real reasons for your decisions - you will find they are not the reasons you've been telling yourself for so long.

In the same way, looking at the why's may show you that what you're trying to achieve is not really what you need.

Focus on the why's and be clear about what you want...

Find the Good

Just heard this quote and thought you might like it...

"Find the good. It's all around you. Find it, showcase it, and you'll start believing it," Jesse Owens

You always have a choice to focus on the good in your life or the bad.

Why not try changing your focus today?

What is the enemy of Depression?

How are things with you today?

I've got another quick message about beating depression for you,
please read this and use it because it can change your life...

How does depression do such a great job of wrecking your life?

What is the worst thing that it does to you?

It stops you from taking action.

Action is the most important factor in moving your life forward.
No action means you cannot take opportunities. Inaction also
makes you confused and unhappy. It allows others to take the
advantage and you allow this to happen. Inaction can be the
result of fear or stress but really inaction is
depression's partner.

So if you want to overcome depression you need only to take
action.

Now depression is a clever thing, it is not stupid, it is your
brain working against itself. Depression works to stop you taking
action. It crushes your ability to make decisions by confusing
you, stressing you, making you angry and sad and then it makes
you tired and takes away your motivation.

What can you do to help yourself:

1. relax and listen to calm music
2. read some inspiring quotes
3. watch a comedy on tv
4. smile

Do something! Anything! But start to take action. Don't accept
depression. A positive step in the right direction means a step
away from depression.

I have suffered from depression as bad as it gets and I know the
choice is either give in or take action to move forward. The
first step is always the most difficult...

I have found a great program that will help you, I recommend it
100%

Strengths and weaknesses

I would like to talk about strengths and weaknesses today.

There are two types of thinking when it comes to your strengths and weaknesses.

Some say "work on your weaknesses and make them into strengths."

Others say "work on your strengths and ignore your weaknesses."

Which is right? Which do you agree with?

I believe that from my own life I believe that if you want to be successful (whatever that means to you) you need to do the following as soon as possible:

1. Know your strengths and weaknesses
2. Decide which weaknesses you have to improve. Those you absolutely must improve.
3. Concentrate your work, business, goals and life on your strengths.
4. Move away from the things you are weak at unless you really should not avoid them.

I tend to be closer to the second answer at he start of this post, then don't I?

If you want to reach your potential and become a success in any area of business or in life you need to play to your strengths. If you are good at mathematics, don't be a hairdresser. If you are good with your hands, don't work in an office job.

Develop the things you do well and do them even better, this is where you can be better than others. The best contribution you can make in the world is doing what you can do best.

In business know what you are good at and do that. Leave others to do what you cannot do well.

Chances are what you do well, you love and what you are weak at is what you do not like.

I think the wise person follows a path that takes them towards doing more of what he or she loves and is good at. Ditch the rest and you can start to be happy.
