Achieving Success

To achieve extraordinary success, a surface-level commitment simply won’t suffice. It demands a profound willingness to delve into the depths of your potential, to push beyond perceived limitations, and to relentlessly pursue your aspirations with unwavering dedication. It’s not merely about wanting success; it’s about cultivating an insatiable hunger for it, a burning desire that fuels your every action and decision.
This journey necessitates a comprehensive and multifaceted approach to discipline. While excelling in a single area showcases admirable focus, true, sustainable success at the highest levels requires a broader spectrum of self-mastery. Imagine a finely tuned instrument; each component must be in perfect harmony to create a symphony. Similarly, your life requires discipline across various domains to orchestrate the success you envision.

Consider these crucial areas where unwavering discipline becomes the bedrock of exceptional achievement:

  • Time Management: Exceptional individuals don’t just manage their time; they master it. They understand the finite nature of each moment and allocate it with meticulous precision to align with their priorities and long-term goals. This involves strategic planning, ruthless elimination of distractions, and a consistent commitment to maximizing productivity.
  • Consistent Effort: Success isn’t a destination reached through sporadic bursts of energy. It’s the cumulative result of consistent, focused effort applied day after day, even when motivation wanes. This requires the discipline to show up, to put in the work, and to persevere through challenges and setbacks.
  • Continuous Learning and Growth: The landscape of success is constantly evolving. Those who reach the pinnacle maintain an insatiable curiosity and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. They embrace lifelong learning, actively seeking new skills, perspectives, and insights to stay ahead and adapt to change.
  • Physical and Mental Well-being: Peak performance demands a sound mind in a sound body. Disciplined individuals prioritize their physical health through consistent exercise, nourishing nutrition, and sufficient rest. They also cultivate their mental resilience through practices like mindfulness, stress management, and emotional regulation.
  • Financial Prudence: True success often entails financial stability and the ability to leverage resources effectively. This requires the discipline to manage finances responsibly, to make informed investment decisions, and to avoid the pitfalls of impulsive spending or debt accumulation.
  • Relationship Cultivation: Success is rarely a solitary endeavor. Building and nurturing strong, meaningful relationships – both personal and professional – requires consistent effort, empathy, and effective communication. Disciplined individuals invest time and energy in fostering these connections.
  • Adaptability and Resilience: The path to success is rarely linear. Obstacles, failures, and unforeseen circumstances are inevitable. The truly successful cultivate the discipline to adapt to changing conditions, to learn from setbacks, and to bounce back with renewed determination.
  • Integrity and Ethical Conduct: Lasting success is built on a foundation of unwavering integrity. Disciplined individuals adhere to a strong moral compass, making ethical choices even when faced with difficult decisions or temptations. Their reputation and trustworthiness become invaluable assets.

Therefore, to achieve the level of success you truly desire, ask yourself not just what you want to do, but what you are willing to do. Are you willing to embrace the multifaceted discipline required to cultivate excellence in these crucial areas? Are you prepared to make the consistent choices, sacrifices, and commitments necessary to transform your aspirations into reality?

The journey demands more than just talent or ambition; it requires the unwavering commitment to becoming a disciplined individual across the spectrum of your life. Embrace this holistic approach to self-mastery, and you will unlock a far greater potential for the profound and lasting success you seek.

Did you fall down?

awwww….did you fail? did someone tell you no?

do you give up or keep going on what you believe in?

Remember when you were a baby or toddler, learning to walk? When you fell down, did you say “This walking thing is not for me, I will let people carry me from now on” Or did you GET UP, dust off your bootstraps and try it again! And now, what, I bet you can RUN too!

Same in your business, at the beginning you might fall, you probably will! But keep getting up, pretty soon you will be #running and #WINNING! Don’t give up!

How to Attract Abundance by Following Your Inner Promptings

I have a gift for you today so make sure to read to the end!  
Today’s mail is about the best kind of prompting.  

An Inner Prompting “A gift that comes from within.” 
Most of the time, a prompting is a thought or feeling that inspires
you to: 
Do something
Reach out
Say something
Share something 

Whatever the reason, your inner prompting motivates you to act. 
Promptings are gifts to us human beings that should be recognized and acted upon quickly (like within 60 seconds) if possible. 

Otherwise, it could be too late and a missed opportunity to make someone feel special or positively change a person’s trajectory. 

Let me ask you… Have you ever felt the disappointment of a missed opportunity from the dreaded: Should’ve, Could’ve, Would’ve 

Disappointment comes from NOT acting on your promptings. On the flip side, abundance comes from acting on Promptings! 

Attracting abundance by following your promptings is a simple process: ActAppreciateAttract Learning to recognize inner promptings begins within yourself! So, my gift to you is “The Promptings Process Ebook;” click the link to download yours for free:  

I’m so excited that you are one of the first people to receive this Ebook! This Ebook will guide you to fulfilling your purpose and attracting prosperity into your personal and business life by perfecting, recognizing, and acting on your inner promptings. 
Enjoy the Ebook,
Laurie 

P.S. I always respond, so feel free to reply and ask any questions you have; I love to help guide people to act on their promptings. 

Are you a potato or egg?

The same #boilingwater that #softens the #potato#hardens the #egg.It’s about what you’re made of, not the #circumstancesWhat do you do when you go through the fire, or are put in the hot water?Does your #heart become soft, and you get closer to #God, you see how God brought this into your life, for you to turn and help others, you #critique yourself, and see what you can change to better yourself, you have #empathy for what others have said or done to you, #forgive them, knowing that they need to work on themselves, and it is them, not you….Does your heart become hard, you become #bitter about what others have said about you or done to you, you become #angry at God for allowing it to happen, say you have your own body/life you can do what you want, #ridicule others, choose to play the #victim mentality to stay #angry/mad/sad and live in that place….Remember either way you choose, you can still #season with lots of #love and grace and become even more better in the end also!

Write a Note

FIVE powerful notes to write that will CHANGE your LIFEPhone calls are great. But when you want to say something important, writing a note, especially a handwritten note, (or even in a card) can be even more powerful.
Why? Notes are unexpected. (Who writes letters anymore?) Notes can be savored. Notes can be saved. Notes can be pulled out and reread dozens of times.
The memories of phone calls can be fleeting. Notes–meaningful, sincere, genuine expressions of thanks, of praise, of feelings–can last forever.
Here are five notes you should write today:
1. Write a thank-you to someone who believed in you. Belief is a powerful thing. Some people have incredible stores of self-belief, but most of us are given confidence and self-assurance by others. Slowly but surely, through their encouragement and support, we develop a stronger sense of self.
At some point, someone saw you struggling and gave you hope. At some point, someone saw something in you that you didn’t yet see in yourself. Who you are today is a direct result of that person’s faith in you.Belief, founded or unfounded, is incredibly powerful–and when someone else believes in us, it’s unforgettable.Tell someone what a huge difference he or she made in your life. Reading your note will make a huge difference in that person’s life–and in your relationship.
2. Write an apology to a person you let down. We’ve all made mistakes. We’ve all done things we regret. Or we haven’t done things–and we regret not acting. We’ve all failed to step up, or step in, or show support, or lend an ear or shoulder…
Maybe you feel you’ve moved past it. Maybe you feel the other person has moved past it, too. Maybe you’re dreaming.An apology not made is the elephant in a room. No matter how much time has passed, it still colors every subsequent interaction. Kill the elephant. Say you’re sorry.
Just don’t follow your apology with a disclaimer. Don’t say, “I’m sorry, but I was really mad because you…” or “I’m sorry I blew up at you, but I do think you were out of line, too.”
Don’t say anything that in any way places even the smallest amount of blame on the other person. Say you’re sorry, say why you’re sorry, and take all the blame. No less. No more. The elephant may never totally disappear, but once you apologize, sincerely and genuinely, the elephant will no longer matter–to either of you.
3. Write a note of congratulations. You don’t even have to know the person. If you liked a book, contact the author and say, “I loved your book.” If a local entrepreneur landed a major customer, send a note and say, “I realize you don’t know me, but I was so impressed I just had to congratulate you!”
Just make sure you don’t follow your congratulations with some sort of request. (Unfortunately, that’s the oldest trick in the networking book, that some coaches have taught but that literally negates the congrats, so don’t do it.)
Bonus points if you explain the impact the person’s accomplishment had on you. Maybe it motivated you. Maybe it inspired you. Maybe it changed your life in some small way. If so, say so.
Then you’re not only congratulating people for a job well done–you’re letting them know they made an impact in someone else’s life.You’re letting them know they matter. They’ll feel a little better about themselves–and you’ll feel better about yourself, too.
4. Write an offer to help. Many people hesitate to ask for help. They see admitting they need help as the same as admitting a weakness. In a hard-charging, Type-A world, who willingly shows vulnerability?
But everyone–everyone–needs help. So offer to help. But don’t just say, “Is there anything I can help you with?” That won’t work: We’re trained to say, “No, I’m fine.”
Be specific. Find something you can help with. Say, “I know you’re working on that. Can I help you finish?” Or say, “I’ve always wanted to know more about this. Can I help you work on it?”
Offer in a way that feels collaborative, not patronizing or gratuitous. If you want, make it a “redeemable coupon” that entitles the recipient to take you up on a specific offer. Offer in the right spirit and people–especially people who might be struggling–will jump at a chance to draw on your energy, enthusiasm, and talent.
And in the process, you’ll strengthen a bond and make a better friend.
5. Write an unexpected compliment. Every day, people around you do good things. Most of those people don’t work with or for you; in fact, most of them have no relationship with you, professional or personal. Compliment one of them for something for which it’s least expected.
Write a note to a doctor who helped you through a rough time. Write a note to a college professor who made you see the world in a different way. Write a note to your town praising the snowplow crews. Write a note to someone who did something thoughtful not because it was expected but simply because they could.
Expected feels good. Unexpected makes a huge, and lasting, impact.
The note you write may be displayed for a long time, serving as a reminder that every job, no matter how seemingly thankless or invisible, is appreciated by at least one person.
You.
And that’s an awesome way to be remembered.

7 cardinal rules in life

P 7 Cardinal Rules in Life
1) Make peace with your past – so it won’t screw up the present.
2) What others think of you is none of your business. (Just always do right, because it is right to do, as long as you do that – you don’t need to worry)
3) Time heals almost everything – give it time (don’t make it go away, or make you forget, but sometimes you will learn to more laugh and smile and be thankful and grateful for the memories, rather than cry and wish)
4) Don’t compare your life to others – and don’t judge them. You have no idea what their journey is all about (most people don’t wear post-its on their foreheads telling you everything they are going thru or have been thru – be kind to everyone)
5) Stop thinking too much – it’s alright not to know the answers. They will come to you when you least expect it.
6) No one is in charge of your happiness, except you
7) Smile – you don’t own all the problems of the world
