For Mental Development: Take the negative input out of your life. 1. Read at least 15 minutes from an empowering & uplifting book...The Key words are Empowering & Uplifting. The Madonna & Dennis Rodman books don't count as well as most of the Novels that are out there...Did you know that research has found that 58% of High School graduates never read another book from cover to cover the rest of their adult life. Approximately 78% of the population have not been in a book store in the last 5 years, and that a full 97% of the population in the United States does not have a Library Card...How much easier can it get than free? The Average child spends less than 1% of their free time reading and about 54% of their free time in front of the Television (either watching it or playing video games)...Speaking of TV, that's the next point...Turn it Off! 2. That's right, for those of you who are paying attention, #2 is Unplug your TV...Now wait a second...before you get too excited let me make a quick point...If your company offers a Satellite program that has training and company information on it, of course you can watch that...Just stay away from the Sitcoms, the Movie Channels, and especially the News...Please stay away from the News...What if you miss something important you may ask. Trust me, if something really important happens, you don't have to watch the news to find out about it...Someone will call and let you know soon enough...OK, let's move on to the next point. 3. Listen to a Tape...One that Educates & Empowers...This means Turn off the Radio and turn on the Audio when you're driving in your vehicle...Turn your automobile into a Moving University. 4. Don't read the Newspaper...The Newspaper publishers understand that Negativity sells so that tends to be the first thing you see on the Cover and woven throughout the Newspapers...Stay away from this. 5. Read your Goals & Affirmations. Get clear about what you want to create in your life and affirm it daily. 6. Limit or Disassociate from negative people...I remember Les Brown saying that there are Toxic Relationships and there are Nourishing Relationships...The Toxic Relationships are Poisonous and can drain you of every bit of energy you have...And trust me, if you want to be massively successful in this business, you are going to need plenty of Energy...Speaking of Energy let's move on to a couple of points that could help out in that Area... For Physical Development: 7. Exercise...Do something. Walk, take the stairs, park a little further away than usual, go to the gym, etc. 8. Drink Plenty of Distilled Water...Go for 8 -- 12oz. Glasses per day. You will be surprised at the Health benefits you will derive just from drinking plenty of water... For Business Development: 9. Use your Product Daily...You want to become your own best customer and you want to personally get the benefits your product offers on a daily basis...Don't expect anyone else in your organization to do it if you're not. 10. Add One New Name to your List. Every day you should be talking to people. Forget about them joining your opportunity or buying your products...Just think about meeting new friends. 11. Expose the Opportunity or Conduct a Follow Up 12. Give a positive story or word of encouragement to someone in your Success Team (Downline) or Support Team (Upline)...Just include something positive everyday...Say something that shows respect, appreciation, approval, and so on...It could be with a Card, A little Note, A Fax, an E-mail, or by using a Voice Communication system you may have set up with your organization. Here's a Bonus one which will make it a Baker's Dozen: 13. Take Time for Reflection...At least 15-30 minutes per day...Take a few moments to just be alone without other disturbances and distractions around...Even if you have to go in your closet...Or take a nice hot bath...Meditate, Seek Wisdom, Courage, Forgiveness, Pray...Give Thanks & Gratitude for already having accomplished that which you want...Call it your Quiet Time or your Spiritual Time or whatever you want...The point is just to spend some time connecting with whatever you want to connect with...Focus on the positive because what you Focus on will expand. Well, that's the "Daily Dozen"...Baker's Dozen that is... I shared the Daily Dozen with a guy who said they wanted to get their Bonus Check up & he said "Jerry, that sounds nice and I think it could even work but I just don't like to read." I said, "Where did you hear me say that you have to Like to Read...I didn't say that, I don't think it says that in your distributor Manual, I'm sure your Support Team Leaders didn't tell you that...You don't have to like to read...That's Optional...You just have to read. In fact, you don't have to like any of what I've mentioned. Always remember that the requirement is not that you like it, but that you do it...If you repeat the Simple Discipline of the Daily Dozen for the next 30 days, it will help you develop new Habits...Habits that will be conducive to you getting what you want from life...And here's an insight: First we make our Habits, and then our Habits make us...

Why don't we make a goal to make at least 12 new friends next year?..and touch someone's life in a very powerful way... And at the same time...touch our own lives with their Friendship? So many folks out there are hurting, and now one of the most powerful ways to live life is simply to be a friend to someone, and all you have to do a lot of times is just... Listen. That's it...nothing more...but there is a great benefit to that... You will Learn from it, as everyone has different life experiences, and we all can learn from them... All Successful people have a Very ACTIVE Listening.... They Listen with their Hearts as well as their Ears.... They Listen with their Eyes, not just their minds...And that is what makes a powerful friend...and finds them...the ability and willingness to Listen and Learn... One of my mentors, who is worth more millions than you and I would have time to Count, told me... "Every Conversation is a Learning Tool...only the Wise utilize it for that...Only the successful turns Strangers into Strategic Partners..." Can you see the Power in Making 12 new Friends next year? Or More...? Make a note to yourself to put yourself in New places, new circumstances, new circles, new restaurants, new charities, new bookstores, new movies, new opinions...wherever folks hang out of like or unlike mind, and just strike up a conversation..... You never know...That one Conversation could be the One that opens the Doors and Floodgates of Success into your life.... Blessings..

Of all the communication you do, none is more important than how you talk to yourself. Your internal dialogue has more to do with your success in life than any other factor. Every minute you are awake, you engage in 800 to 1,200 words of self-dialogue. In these conversations, you solve problems or create them, make decisions or avoid them, judge, praise, disparage or motivate yourself. You can dwell on past mistakes or plan future achievements. Obviously, the more positive your self talk, the stronger and better prepared you become to face your daily challenges. In the computer world, the word GIGO means "garbage in, garbage out." Your mind works the same way. What you talk to yourself about directly affects how you live your life. Saying the right words to yourself will create a positive mental picture in your mind. That picture will encourage and motivate you to take the right actions that will lead to your personal success. Those Encouraging Words Whenever you catch yourself engaging in negative self-talk, try the following: 1. Choose one thing for which you are grateful and talk to yourself about it. This blocks out your negative self-talk. The mind cannot hold two conflicting images at the same time. Gratitude is one of the most powerful emotions you possess to have the rich fulfilling life you deserve. 2. Choose something you like about yourself. Describe it. Are you smart? Are you kind? Are you creative? How does this enhance the things you do? How does it advance and enrich others? What is its impact on your family, work or community? 3. What future event are you most looking forward to? Describe it to yourself in vivid detail. Elaborate, expand, and expound. Add Technicolor and stereo. Allow yourself to daydream. All your accomplishments are first a thought, a dream or goal pulling you toward it. 4. Keep an inspirational book, tape or CD handy to reinforce your positive self-talk. Use them whenever are feeling negative. When you are moving around, listen. When you are settled in one place, read the words. Being your own biggest booster doesn't mean you're immodest. It means you're smart. Life is a do it yourself job, and if you don't motivate yourself, who will? Remember: five years from now, you'll be the same person you are today -- except for the people you meet, the situations you've encountered and the thoughts you've thought. Keep your internal dialogue positive, upbeat, and future-oriented. No one is in a better position to be your biggest cheerleader than YOU! =================================================== To learn more about Sheila Murray Bethel and to save 20% when you purchase her best-selling audio series, Leadership That Makes a Difference and Searching For Success, visit http://www.yoursuccessstore.com. ==================================================== CREATING OPPORTUNITY by Jim Rohn ==================================================== An enterprising person is one who comes across a pile of scrap metal and sees the making of a wonderful sculpture. An enterprising person is one who drives through an old decrepit part of town and sees a new housing development. An enterprising person is one who sees opportunity in all areas of life. To be enterprising is to keep your eyes open and your mind active. It's to be skilled enough, confident enough, creative enough and disciplined enough to seize opportunities that present themselves...regardless of the economy. A person with an enterprising attitude says, "Find out what you can before action is taken." Do your homework. Do the research. Be prepared. Be resourceful. Do all you can in preparation of what's to come. Enterprising people always see the future in the present. Enterprising people always find a way to take advantage of a situation, not be burdened by it. And enterprising people aren't lazy. They don't wait for opportunities to come to them, they go after the opportunities. Enterprise means always finding a way to keep yourself actively working toward your ambition. Enterprise is two things. The first is creativity. You need creativity to see what's out there and to shape it to your advantage. You need creativity to look at the world a little differently. You need creativity to take a different approach, to be different. What goes hand-in-hand with the creativity of enterprise is the second requirement: the courage to be creative. You need courage to see things differently, courage to go against the crowd, courage to take a different approach, courage to stand alone if you have to, courage to choose activity over inactivity. And lastly, being enterprising doesn't just relate to the ability to make money. Being enterprising also means feeling good enough about yourself, having enough self worth to want to seek advantages and opportunities that will make a difference in your future. And by doing so you will increase your confidence, your courage, your creativity and your self-worth - your enterprising nature.

Meyer ==================================================== Integrity is where it all begins! Integrity is real and concrete! Integrity is measurable and includes traits like being honest, keeping your word, standing your ground for what is right, and maintaining your honor. It is something you can't pretend to have. Real integrity is treating others the way you want to be treated even when nobody is watching. The Golden Ruler If your foundation is one of integrity, your choices and decisions will bear that out. On the other hand, if you lack integrity, that too will become evident. Your upright actions will show in every instance that: "I do the right thing simply because it is the right thing to do." In the book of Proverbs, it says: The integrity of the upright guides them. Also, A person of integrity works securely, but he who walks a crooked path will be found out. Here are some benefits I have found from keeping integrity: * Increased sales and profits * Inspiration and motivation * Unexpected favor * Respect and appreciation * A good name and reputation * Peace and contentment * God's blessings in every part of my life IN CONCLUSION, we are talking about the Golden Rule here... LET'S PUT OUR RECRUITING AND SELLING SHOES ON WITH INTEGRITY, like the leaders we really are! =================================================== To receive more information about Paul J.
