Are You Living Your Life Or Someone Else Life?

I work with a lot of people and I get a chance to see what makes a lot of them tick. 99% of them are living on someone else terms building someone else dreams. 9 times out of 10 they are miserable, but they continue to live this life because it's comfortable. Daring to believe that the life that they really desire can be the one that they live everyday. Too lazy to put in the work that it will take to live life on their terms not truly understanding that when you are doing what you love, you won't mind the work. They don't want to put in the time that it will take to change their mindset, because living life on your own terms means that you have to change the way you think about things. Fear of the unknown keeps them paralyzed even though they know that they can take the leap if they had enough Faith. But even their Faith is shook. So how does one go about living life on their own terms you may ask. Well I am happy to share with you some of the steps that I've adopted to do just that.

 1. First you have to make a decision that you want to live a life that you truly love.

2. You have to pay attention to what your purpose is. Notice that I said pay attention. The reason being is because your purpose is already in you, but you haven't paid it any attention because it comes so naturally to you that you just do it without thinking about it.

3. You have to stop chasing money. As long as you chase money it will continue to run from you.

4. Don't try to please everyone, because you can't. Be true to yourself and know your worth.

5. Take some time to find out who you are. Until you do this and be completely honest with yourself you will always live on someone else terms.

6. Don't let envy or jealousy into your life. Don't compare yourself to others. No one is better than anyone else. You can have exactly what you want when you make a decision that you want it. When you make the commitment that you will do what you have to create the life that you want. When you remove envy and jealousy from your life.

7. Don't forget to pray and ask for guidance. This is the most important thing especially when you are struggling try to make sense of your life knowing that you want something different but just don't know where to start or what to do.


Life is short. Stop living on someone else terms and start living on your own terms!

Until Next Time

Motivate Yourself To Success

The greatest reward success brings is self-satisfaction.  Although we often assume that the accumulation of wealth is the only measure of success, it is but one measure.  It is an important one to be sure, but true success is marked by the satisfaction of knowing you have done a job and done it well--that you have achieved the goal you set for yourself.

Einstein, for example, never attained great wealth in his lifetime.  But could anyone say he was unsuccessful?  Einstein reached the top of his profession and changed the world because he knew what he wanted to do and had a plan for achieving it.

How can you motivate yourself to succeed?  The answer lies in following the same method Einstein and all other enormously successful people have followed.  Develop a burning desire for something that you wish to have in order to reach a greater goal you have set for yourself.  Remember, there is a difference between merely wishing for something and deciding definitely that you are going to have it.

Once you have that burning desire, you will develop an intensity of purpose that will allow you to simply brush aside obstacles that seemed insurmountable before.  All things are possible to the person who believe they are possible.

Set yourself a definite goal in life.  Write it down.  Commit it to memory.  Direct every thought and all your energies to making it come true.  Instead of letting monetary setbacks throw you off course, search in them for the seed of an equivalent benefit which can help you get back on track to attaining your goal.

When Henry Ford began work on his first horseless buggy, less farsighted people many of his own relatives and neighbors laughed at him.  Some called him a crazy inventor.

Crazy or not, Ford knew what he wanted--and had a burning desire to achieve it.  He also refused to recognize any limitations.  Lacking formal education or training as a mechanic, he simply educated himself.  Nothing stands in the way of a person determined to reach a life goal.

Ford changed the face of America.  His mass produced automobiles made transportation affordable for the average family and opened up the country.  Whole industries grew up around the automobile:  Without Ford's "Tin Lizzie," there would have been no need for a network of highways (and the jobs their construction created), service stations, fast food franchises and motels.

Another perfect example is John Wanamaker who began as a clerk in Philadelphia retail store.  From the beginning he made up his mind he was going to own a similar store someday.  When he announced this to his boss, the store owner laughed and said, Why, John, you don't have enough money to buy an extra suit of clothes do you?

"No," Wanamaker said.  "But I want a store like this--or even a better one.  And I'm going to get it."

At the height of his success, Wanamaker owned one of thee greatest mercantile establishments the country has ever known.

"I had very little schooling, " Wanamaker said years later.  "But I acquired the education I needed the same way a locomotive takes on water--I scooped it up as I ran.

Remember, Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind of man can achieve.  The person determined to attain success starts where he stands, making the best of whatever tools he has and acquiring whatever else he needs along the way.  Start from where ever you stand today.

Want To Create Expert Status? Check Out These 15 Ways

I just finished up the radio show and I talked about ways to create expert status.  This post will include 16 ways to create expert status.  Out of the 15 I've personally used 13 of the ways.  You may know of some other ways that you may want to add and by all means go ahead and do so.

1. Write a book.  This is probably the number one way to create expert status.
2. Write an Ebook.  An ebook does not have to be as large as a book.  You can start with 15 or 20 pages.
3. Write articles and have them syndicated across the web.  Media people are always looking for content to fill their publication.
4. Blogging.  You can use the same article that you wrote and add it as a blog on your site.
5. Publish your own ezine or newsletter.  Make sure that the your publication has information that the user can use.
6. Create training videos.  They don't need to be long.  They just need to be filled with great information.
7. Start your own web- TV show.  This gives you the chance to show your stuff live.
8. Host a show on your local cable network.  By doing this you will be come a local icon.  You never know who's watching.
9. Teach a class via a tele-seminar.  This is so simple once you have decided what the topic will be.  You can do it for free or for a fee.
10. Become a speaker.  Start speaking on a local level first to get your feet wet.  Once you've done that introduce yourself to organizations and let them know that you are available for speaking.
11. Start your own radio show.  You no longer have be a show on traditional radio to become a talk show host.  The internet has so many ways for you to start your own show and have it syndicated across the web.
12. Get booked as a guest on other people show.
13. Facilitate classes at an adult education center
14. Host webinars online which are visual classes
15. Host live seminars and workshops

These are some powerful ways to up your status.  I must say though, that all of the ways listed are content producing.  You must have power and engaging content to keep your audience interested and coming back for more.  If can do this, they will be happy to share your information with their network.  I do it all the time.

Until Next Time

Make It A Great Day!
