I have recently come across some interesting findings on success. I used to think extremely successful people had some sort of “success gene”, that they were born with some innate know-how on how to achieve great things. However, with a lot of reading and studying I have come across some principles of success and have come to realize that these people, these extremely successful people are not born with this knowledge, they acquire it! This means that success and the science of creating success is something that we can all learn, study and master. The study of success is a science, it has predictable outcomes. What you put in to it comes out in the tail end.
Here are some interesting definitions of success:
“Success is not just being important, it is being significant.” –author unknown
“Success in life is becoming what you truly want to be”. – Wallace D. Wattles
“Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.” -Earl Nightingale
So how does one learn to become successful and achieve the results their desire? They learn and study the science of success; they learn and study the habits of successful people. In most cases this practice involves raising your awareness, habituating the practice of goal setting and planning and learning to focus on the present.
Did you know that it has been said that most individuals only spend 1% of their life focusing in the present? Most people do not focus on their current tasks and activities. They are thinking about their past; the fight they had last night with their significant other, the children’s soccer game after work, the weekend plans, etc. They do not allow and demand of themselves to actually fully be and act in the present. Did you know that it has been said that only 2% of the population actually thinks creatively? In addition, 3% of individuals think that they think, and 95% of the population would rather die than think? Since thought has been linked to results and understanding that mental activity does not constitute as thinking, this means only a small percentage of the population really understand and uses the power of creative thinking to fast forward to their goals and realize their ideals. These are the people that are extremely successful, they choose their results.
So how does one become more aware and learn how to work at their full potential and realize their goals? They progress through the seven levels of awareness. These levels are as follows:
Our first level of awareness is our animal awareness, this level is innate, we are aware of ourselves and others, we are aware of the needs to sustain life.
The second level of awareness is the mass level. This is where an individual's awareness remains quite limited. Their decisions are based upon what everyone else is doing, they do not think for themselves. They conform, they follow the masses. The majority of people, more than half are at this level and stay at this level their entire life time. These individual do not use creative thought. Most of them are not happy with their current results. The third level of awareness is aspiration. This is where an individual becomes aware of deep feelings and desires that may be different than that of what everyone else is doing and they start to explore these feelings, desires and thoughts. They are wanting more, they want further growth and development professionally and personally, they aspire to be more. This is when they want to break away from the masses and become an individual. This is when we aspire to learn more, to become better people, to serve our family, friend and community better.
The fourth level of awareness is the individual level or stage. This is where a person uses creative thought to create their own identity statement; this is the who, what and the why, their ultimate purpose in life, their own personal “because”. This is the level where they figure out their passion, their goals, their dreams and their plans, and this purpose is unique to that individual. These are the individual reasons and purposes that drive us.
A fair percentage of individuals make it to these 3rd and 4th levels, unfortunately for many, limiting beliefs, poor self esteem, lack of confidence, feelings of doubt or other negative emotions keep many people here and they are unable to break free to the next levels of awareness. These individuals who remain in these levels never really quite get the results they desire or reach their goals efficiently or timely.
The next level of awareness is discipline. This is where an individual becomes aware of how to use thought, goals, planning, and desire to manifest the outcomes and results they want. Those with discipline to stay on course, steadfast towards their goals, no matter what is happening around them or what other people (the masses) are saying to or about them, those that learn, study, practice and habituate the science of success and wealth reach this level. Many drop out here and fail to progress beyond this point due to lack of discipline, or give up too soon before their results manifest, often times just before they reach their goals. Those that move on to the next level of awareness practice these habits of success are rewarded.
Stop a moment and take an opportunity to think about why we want to aspire for more, it is to better serve others and to live a fuller life. Those individuals who have a strong desire to do things better move forward through the various levels of awareness. The 6th level of awareness is experience. Through the study and habituation of the skills and knowledge of how to become successful and wealthy, and through steadfast discipline, one will begin to see how the process works. When they see the results they desire manifest, they will become stronger in how they practice and do more of the same. When they do not see the results they desire, they will change what they are doing, practice with discipline until they see the results they desire.
The 7th level of awareness is becoming a mastermind. Only a very small percentage of the population reaches this point. These individuals have learned the science of success, they understand how the science and process works, they have fine tuned their practices and habits based on their experience and are extremely effective at attracting success, resources, people and even wealth. They are very effective and efficient in reaching their goals, receiving their desires and manifesting the results that they want. They choose their results.
Think of the capacity of helping others, serving others better and achieving your desires, when you can choose your results. Think of the positive impact you can have on your life and other peoples' lives when you are a mastermind. Every one of us reading this article has the mental facilities and capacity to become a mastermind.
Changing the personal effects and your patterns of success at work is more important than you might think. The cost of negativity in the workplace is around $3 billion annually, according to an estimate by the U.S. Department of Labor. Not only are negative work environments costly for your company -- they're also taxing on your health and quality of life.

Emulate Your Mentors
One of the most effective secrets to success that I did not mention earlier is emulating other successful people or having a mentor.
Study people’s thoughts, habits and methods of acquiring success, these should be people you admire or who have reached the goals that you are aspiring for. Start to think like them and emulate them and you will get the same successful results. Read their books, take their programs, get into their minds and thoughts. Pick up their habits. Allow them to mentor you.
Those who have mentors advance more rapidly professionally and personally. But mentoring may not be what you think it is. We all have mentors. We all have many mentors. Sometimes it is just becoming aware of who your mentors are.
Mentors are people in your life who listen, encourage, support, challenge and advise you. They provide direction. They help you to take a look at your situation or issue from a different perspective and help you to see the possibilities and options that you did not see initially. They allow you to make an informed and thoughtful decision and assist in problem solving to increase your confidence, strengthen your abundant attitude.
Two decades of intensive research has proven what we all know intuitively: those who have significant relationships with people they consider mentors advance more rapidly professionally and personally. They become aware and learn the attributes of successful, fruitful and highly energetic people. No one advances forward quickly without significant help from others. You do not even need to know these people, just learn the way that they think.
Create a mental committee of people who you admire create your panel of mentors, or have accomplished goals in your field; tap into their energy. Studies have shown that mentoring is the most effective way to successfully accomplish your goals, in the shortest period of time. Absolutely do not skip over this one. You must get a mentor if you want fast and successful results.
You must learn from the masterminds. You must learn how to raise your level of awareness and share like mindedness with these souls. They say you become the composite of the 5 people that you spend the most time with. If you are serious about creating new results, you should dedicate as much of your free time, energy and resources to soaking up the information and knowledge mentors can provide you.
Read their books, listen to their tapes, over and over again until you can hear them in your mind and you start to speak and think like them!

Practice the Art of Allowing
The art of allowing means several things. It means being receptive to allowing all the good and abundance that is flowing to you. This is where you take the foot off the brake and put it on the gas....your flow of increase opens up when you understand this concept. You begin to allow things to happen instead of subconsciously impeding the flow.
Be flexible and receptive. This means practicing the art of allowing. Be open minded to the people, ideas, thoughts, intuition, inner guidance and desires you feel within you. Desire is Power seeking expression, the universal mind is seeking to celebrate and express itself through you. Allow it to happen. This means acting in accordance to your inner knowing, eliminating judgmental and biased views of others and working on the creative plane as opposed to the competitive plane.
Keep in mind that situations, ideas, people, and conditions change. If you keep your blinders on, you'll miss many opportunities that can assist you to perform your goals with speed, ease, comfort and joy. You must keep your eye on your goal and believe in the concept of infinite opportunities. When you believe in the infinite possibilities that are open and coming to you, and practice the art of allowing, you open up the flow of abundance and prosperity to you.
Part of allowing it being grateful for everything and bit of abundance that comes to you. Starting your day with gratitude. Practicing gratitude is a tremendous way to raise your thought vibrations and attract more of what you desire to you. The law of gratitude works when you think and feel thoughts for all of the blessings that you have and that are coming to do. Always include gratitude as a part of your daily affirmations.
Enjoy your abundance and have fun allowing it in!

Harmonize with the Nature of Your Dominating Thoughts
Understand that each thought you are thinking creates your future now. This is the Law of Attraction in Action. This concept is often referred to as pre-paving our future. Thoughts have energy that creates a vibration, these vibrations attract people, events, conditions that are in alignment with the same or similar vibration energy. When you think low energy thoughts, such as negative thoughts, fear, doubt, worry, anger, regret or grief, you attract low energy people, situations and events to you.
When you think high energy thoughts, those of optimism, love, passion, forward thinking, abundance and advancement, you attract high energy things back to you, that is the natural law of attraction. You basically create your future by using the natural laws of the Universe, primarily the Laws of Attraction and Cause and Effect to bring people, events, things and situations that correspond to the natural frequency or vibration of your thoughts. Thoughts have the power to deliver to you exactly what you want when you think them with persistency and consistency daily. It is your responsibility to stay positive in your thoughts. The Law of Attraction is working constantly whether you believe it or not. It always has been and always will. Take a look at your current results, they are all a result of attracting people, things and circumstances to you based on your previous thoughts.
This means you can choose your results by choosing your thoughts. You can create new thoughts and learn to reject thoughts that do not match up with your vision and goals. Tell yourself “reject”, and cancel any negative thought when you have began to think poorly. Once you have rejected the negative thought, now choose a new thought, create one that is positive and decisive and choose only thoughts that empower you. Those individuals that are masters at using the mind, and choosing their results are always acting and thinking positively and decisively.
“Our brains become magnetized with the dominating thoughts which we hold in our minds, and, by means by which no man is familiar, these ‘magnets’ attract to us the forces, the people, the circumstances of life which harmonize with the nature of our dominating thoughts.” –Napolean Hill
Fascinating isn't it?!?!

The 5 A’s to create a full and successful life:
1) Abundance: life expression includes the mind, body and spirit. Life is always for advancement, growth and increase. Life expression is always for fuller life. Life is meant to be abundant in all ways, in the mind, body and spirit. Focus on abundance, there is only abundance. Do not think of or focus on lack, limitation or anything bad or negative, this includes eliminating these words from your vocabulary: “I cannot” and “yeah butt….” Life, the universe is abundant, remove your self from any and all thoughts that are focused on limitation, lack or competition.

Learn, practice and master the concepts of the law of attraction so that you become a co-creator of your results.

When we feel good, we are in alignment, when we do not have good feelings, we are not in alignment. We have the capacity to use your conscious mind to change our thoughts in order to create positive feelings, those feelings that raise our vibration. Our feelings cause our actions, then according to the natural law of cause and effect, our actions cause a reaction, that is attraction. This reaction changes our results. The only way you can change our results is by changing our thoughts, feelings and actions that cause new reactions and new results. This can only happen from the inside.

Live in the Now!
Live in the Now: life is a journey, enjoy the journey do not focus on the destination. That is also a message in a movie I saw recently "The Peaceful Warrior"...very good!
There are only three: past, PRESENT, future. It's been said that most folks only spend 1% of their life in the present. Allow and demand of yourself to be fully present in the moment. Those that do live in the present are the small percentage that choose their results and make things happen.
Reject thinking that doesn't support your chosen writing objective, including rejecting non-article related mental chatter (your kids soccer game, your workout tonight, your relationships with others, your toys, etc). Your goal is to zero in on the task in front of you. Enter the zone. Deny all incoming calls. Don't check your email. Move to a place and time you can write without being disturbed. When you become fully present, endeavor to live and the Universe will bend around you. You will be happier, more focused, fullfilled and successful at whatever you do.

Managing Our Three Resources
Here is another neat thing to think about:
We need resources to live, improve, advance, succeed and give back to others. Yet we really only have three resources: Time, Money and Energy.
In reality we can only manage and increase one of them. We want to increase these resources so we can lead fuller, more productive lives and better serve others. Do you know which one of the three resources we can manage and increase?!?!?!
I found this rather interesting... time, despite all those books and courses on time management, time cannot be managed. We always have 24 hours in a day, no more, no less, you cannot increase time. Therefore time cannot be managed. Now, activities can be managed but activities are not a resource.
Energy cannot be increased, remember back in physics class, where potential energy and kinetic energies of an object are always equal, energy is, it is neither created nor destroyed... it just is .... when a ice cube melts to water, the energy of the molecules is the same, although they are no moving at a hiher velocity. So energy cannot be increased and it cannot be managed.
So, that leaves money, money is the only resource that we have that we can manage and increase. The sources are abundant. So if we want to increase our resources so that we lead fuller lives, become more successful professionals, expand our practices and business offerings, better serve our patients and communities, we need to learn how to increase this resource, how to make more money, how to create and attract wealth. When you think about it for a while, it makes sense.... I am fascinated by the information out there. Thank you again for letting me share my thoughts with you all!

We need resources to live, improve, advance, succeed and give back to others. Yet we really only have three resources: Time, Money and Energy.
In reality we can only manage and increase one of them. We want to increase these resources so we can lead fuller, more productive lives and better serve others. Do you know which one of the three resources we can manage and increase?!?!?!
I found this rather interesting... time, despite all those books and courses on time management, time cannot be managed. We always have 24 hours in a day, no more, no less, you cannot increase time. Therefore time cannot be managed. Now, activities can be managed but activities are not a resource.
Energy cannot be increased, remember back in physics class, where potential energy and kinetic energies of an object are always equal, energy is, it is neither created nor destroyed... it just is .... when a ice cube melts to water, the energy of the molecules is the same, although they are no moving at a hiher velocity. So energy cannot be increased and it cannot be managed.
So, that leaves money, money is the only resource that we have that we can manage and increase. The sources are abundant. So if we want to increase our resources so that we lead fuller lives, become more successful professionals, expand our practices and business offerings, better serve our patients and communities, we need to learn how to increase this resource, how to make more money, how to create and attract wealth.

Inspirational Quote and Action
“Nothing is ever quite as bad as it could be.”
-Amy Hempel
Today’s Inspired Action:
Develop a good word habit. Record your conversations while you are on the phone or talking to others. Listen to your choice of words and focus. Think about the words you are using. Make a list of the ones you wish to stop saying. Work to eliminate the negative or self limiting words from your vocabulary. Once you become conscious of the words you want to eliminate, it is easy to substitute a more positive, empowering word.

Aptitude: Unleashing Your Creative Powers
Aptitude:
Creativity is an aptitude that everyone possesses, yet not everyone fully expresses. Independent of what your individual talents are, you use creativity everyday in how you approach and perceive life situations, issues and people. The difference between people who use their creative power to choose their results and manifest outcomes they desire lies in the degree or depth of their belief and in what ways they decide to use creativity in daily life and the thought process.
Aptitude in relation to creativity means the ability to create new ideas and thoughts from the inside, regardless of the appearance or influence of external factors by combining, changing or reapplying ones that already exist. It allows you to take from what you already know and build on it, to create an experience that is new and different, yet out of past experiences to get new results.
Aptitude develops out of awareness and develops as one gains experience and advances towards the Mastermind level.

Limitations and Choosing Your Results
When working through an issue, an effective way of achieving the results you want comes from breaking down and exploring the various types of limitations we encounter and developing an action plan to overcome the limitation to achieve success.
Control limitations: Determine the amount of direct control you have over the situation or issue. Limitations are typically related to levels of knowledge, skill, awareness, role responsibility or authority. By exploring your limitations you can take effective action in order to gain confidence, wisdom or divert to the appropriate person with the authority or in the appropriate role. Work in cooperation with these parties in order to secure the results you choose.
Total Value Limitations: Determine if it is a fight worth taking on. You may find yourself in a situation where you have enough control or authority to effect a change, but you realize the gain will not be worth the effort, time, money or energy of making the decision. This involves management of the three critical resources of time, money and energy. In the end the gain has to be worth more than the risk associated with making the change.
Acceptance Limitations: Determine if it is a situation that you are in alignment with, evaluate your emotional responses and feeling toward the direction of the result. If you can live with the situation, move on. Acceptance is not always agreement, but a decision and choice to live with a disagreeable situation that is beyond your control. The secret in choosing your results also involves identifying situations in which you may be agreeable to disagree and live in the choice of disagreeing when the situation is out of your control.
Once you have explored these factors, you can determine an appropriate response to the situation. In order to choose your results when facing an uncomfortable issue or circumstance evaluate the most appropriate response from below.
Look for a different perspective: There may be conditions or understandings that are influencing the outcomes which are currently beyond your level of knowledge or awareness. This may involve a paradigm shift and going through the terror barrier.
Influence a different outcome: You may be in a position to influence key decision makers into making a change and adopting your beliefs. Practice the art of persuasion, know what outcome you desire and work from the end.
Accept what cannot be changed: You may not have enough direct control over the outcomes when faced with issues where you lack the full authority or responsibility or control, the best result is to make peace with the situation and agree to disagree or accept the outcome. You are choosing peace with the results.

Negative Emotions Associated with Conflict or Change
Negative Emotions Associated with Conflict or Change
Let’s examine the negative emotions associated with the terror barrier or conflict.
Fear, frustration and lack of control are the most common ones, I have an entire article titled "Change of Focus" posted on www.AcquiredHope.com and book "Acquired Hope" that details all of the negative emotions dealing with coping with change. Overcoming these negative emotions and getting the results you want often comes with a change in perspective.
Frustrations and fear often develop out of feelings of a lack of control. Understand this, control, in the sense of determining an absolute outcome or result, is usually limited to oneself. You cannot control another person. All you can do is control your own thoughts, feelings and actions. When you understand this, you stop wasting time, energy and effort trying to control others, and you learn to focus your energy on creating the appropriate thoughts, which lead to only positive feelings, inspired actions and hence a new set of conditions, circumstances and environments, which lead to new results. These will be the results of your liking, as these are results that you have chosen. You and only you have now created this new set of results.
Now, you cannot control other human beings, but you do have the ability to influence people and therefore influence results. The art of influencing involves persuasion, enticing or swaying the other person to adopt your point of view, your reflection point, your opinion or in the sales world, your product. They often say that closing a sale is merely getting the other person to adopt your belief in your product. You have successfully influenced their actions and believe to be in alignment with yours.
What most people want is control over outcomes, but rarely do they have the personal power to make changes to secure the cooperation of other and truly achieve the results they want.
Learn this skill, obtain this power, it is all about awareness. Learn to choose your results: www.ChooseYourResults.com

Wisdom and Awareness
Wisdom is the ability to exercise good judgment. When we are faced with challenging issues or circumstances in which we are not familiar with, when we face the “terror barrier”, wisdom is needed. Often times wisdom is the having the awareness of the situation and the knowing of the possibly outcomes and then establishing a plan in order to obtain the outcome or outcomes of your choosing, as opposed to leaving the end result up to chance. Which often times is not the result we desire and not the result of our choice. By leveraging experience and understanding, you can gain clarity, confidence and power in taking effective actions in order to resolve the issue, frustrations, fear and to regain focus.
Wisdom allows you to respond as opposed to react in a situation. This is part of the process of being able to choose your results.
Breaking through the terror barrier becomes easy, once you learn what is going on, that you are shifting paradigms or conditioning and you change the emotion from fear to one of acceptance.
