Use this mantra to be the victor of life’s tests. – REPLAY

Every test in life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to break us or make us.
The choice is ours whether we become Victim or Victor.
– Tammy S. Ernst

Tammy Ernst sounds like she trained at the same martial arts school as me. This quote from Tammy is very similar to the “mantra” we stated at the beginning and end of each class in our dojo.

Shiken haramitsu daikoumyo

This sacred Buddhist mantra in Japanese is taught and used by all members of the Bujinkan Dojo. The meaning as explained by my Sensei when I started the training was:

“In every encounter or experience in life, we have the chance to gain total enlightenment. It’s up to us to determine if those experiences are positive or negative.”

This phrase became my mantra for life. This is how I like to look at the experiences I have in life. I try to look at all of them as positive as I can.

You can see how Tammy’s quote is so similar.

Every test in life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to break us or make us. The choice is ours whether we become Victim or Victor.

We choose whether we will be better or bitter. We choose to let our experiences break us or make us. We choose to be the Victim or the Victor. It’s a tough choice for some, easy for many. Unfortunately, most people choose to be the Victim. They choose to let the tough life experiences break them, they choose to be bitter.

What do you choose? Are you a Victim or a Victor? Are you going to let life’s experiences break you or make you? Will you choose bitterness or Betterness!

Join me in choosing to be a Victor. Join me in letting life Make Us into what we want to be, Better!

S2-E48 – Do You Procrastinate, Delaying Your Success?

“Success is not obtained overnight. It comes in installments; you get a little bit today, a little bit tomorrow until the whole package is given out. The day you procrastinate, you lose that day’s success.”   ― Israelmore Ayivor

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E48_-_Are_You_Procrastinating_Final.mp3

Good day my friend. Today I want to present a quote for one of my good friends and coaching client that is fighting the battle with Procrastination. Do You Procrastinate and Delay Your Success?

We all suffer through procrastination at some time in our life. If you don’t today just wait until tomorrow. OK, that was a bad attempt at a joke. But, for many if not most people it is a constant struggle. It isn’t caused by you. Well, not consciously anyway. It is caused by your subconscious mind.

The quote is true. We get bits and pieces of our success. When we procrastinate, we lose that day’s helping of success. If you procrastinate, that time cannon be made up. You lose it. Do you want to lose any part of your success?

Procrastination

Procrastination is a tool of the subconscious mind. Our subconscious mind uses Fears to control our lives. The Fear of Failure, the Fear of Success are two fears that are often manifested by the subconscious as procrastination. Our subconscious mind, if not programmed to understand success as a known it will start using fears to sabotage your own success. The Fears of Success and Failure are both the same but different. Don’t you hate it when people use that saying – “the same but different”. You can’t be the same and different or can you. They are the same in that your subconscious mind doesn’t recognize success. It doesn’t understand it. It isn’t positive or negative, it just is. Depending on how we are raised, how our environment was around us as we were growing up, the subconscious mind will view it differently.

Fear of Failure

If I was brought up within a successful thought process, than I could have a fear of failure. Our parent may have shown disfavor when we didn’t achieve what was expected of us, what they wanted or thought we should do. Because we didn’t meet up to their expectations we were derided or not shown positive responses. Our subconscious mind can cause us to think that if we fail at what we are trying to achieve, then we will once again be derided or shown disfavor. To prevent this from happening, our mind set about not letting us complete the tasks that would lead to this activity. Procrastination is the tool, the way for the mind to prevent this situation from occurring.  You can’t fail if you don’t start. 

But, You Do! Not starting is a failure to accomplish what you wanted to start. Then the mind starts saying the next time, “What, You have never completed anything before. What makes you think you can do it now? The Impostor Syndrome then start to move into your mental house.

Fear of Success

Our subconscious mind, when it doesn’t recognize success as a known, it will often present in the form of Fear Of Success. You start trying to do something that could make you successful and it your own mind starts freaking out.

“Wait, you’ve never been successful at this kind of thing.  You can’t make $5000 per week. You’ve never made more than $2500 a month. How are you going to make that kind of money?”

The mind, when it doesn’t recognize our actions and thoughts as knowns, it will start to sabotage your success. It will do things to keep you from doing what it does not know. It will make you procrastinate.

It doesn’t matter if that change is positive, it will not recognize you doing it and then do whatever it can to shut you down; to protect you!  It’s not being mean. It wants to make sure that you are doing what it recognizes as it’s own truth.

One of it’s biggest tools is PROCRASTINATION. ”

Hey, you have so much else to do right now. Housework needs to get done right now. You need to go work in the yard. Hey, you haven’t seen all of the episodes of Justified. You know you can watch them on Amazon Prime, right. Let’s sit down and watch just one episode.”

Unfortunately, that one episode turns into 3-5 and the next thing you know, 3-5 hours has passed and the time you were going to work on writing your book, recording that podcast episode, whatever you goal is. The tasks you need to do to complete them are replaced with activities that do not accomplish your goals.

Wait I spent 3-5 hours researching stuff for what I am trying to do. Really? I heard and believe that 85% of research is Procrastination. If we have to do research on a topic to complete our goals, then make that a timed task that you need to complete. Research is important, but don’t use it as an excuse. If you time-box for research, you will recognize that your subconscious mind is trying to sabotage you when that time starts getting wasted on other non-productive tasks. Non-productive in the accomplishment of your goals.

Your Subconscious Mind will make you procrastinate to destroy your dreams.

But you can change that. You can change the unknowns into knowns while at the same time working to achieve your dreams. You can reprogram your subconscious mind to think of this success as a known. You can change your own mind into recognizing that making $5000 per week or even per day is a known. When it recognizes what it is like putting tens of thousands of dollars in your bank account every week or day, it will then stop sabotaging you. It will then start removing those negative voices and limiting beliefs with positive, success-seeking beliefs.

That’s what I did after I learned The Mental Bank Method and why I incorporate this technique into the Goal Achievement Success System. This is how I was able to go from working at low paying jobs making minimum wage, to $17K, then $37K, then $75K then to $150K plus – without a college degree.

Mental Bank

S2-E39 – See the positive in negative events . . . Joel Osteen

You’re going to go through tough times – that’s life. But I say, ‘Nothing happens to you, it happens for you.’
See the positive in negative events.
Joel Osteen

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E39_-_Joel_Osteen_-_Think_Positive_Final.mp3

 

Hi fellow Goal Getter. I appreciate you listening to the show. I really apologize for the delays in getting back to the show. I am going through some challenges and changes in my life at the moment and I have allowed it to affect my thoughts and my attitude. I am a positive person and do my best to keep myself and other thinking positive and keeping our motivation going so we can achieve our goals.

I am going to start a series on Positive Thinking Quotes. I think it is important to think positively. To be positive. But don’t get me wrong. I don’t believe that positive thinking alone will be what it takes to achieve our goals. Reading and quoting positive thoughts won’t get you farther. It will help keep us motivated and inspired and help you remember your Why.

And it’s certainly makes us feel better to be positive than to be negative, right?

The power of positive thinking is powerful. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale wrote the great book, The Power of Positive Thinking. I highly recommend it. I read it so many time when I was young. I remember after the first time I read it, I told my minister I was excited about the idea. I remember standing on the front steps of our church after a Sunday service and him saying, “Tony, thinking positive is a bad thing. You need to be realistic.”

I was amazed with this statement. This was my last Sunday at this church. I couldn’t believe that a preacher, a man of God would not believe in the power of positive thinking. God wants us to be positive and to believe in ourselves. I did not believe that this man spoke for God.

We are going to go through tough times at points in our lives. We are going to experience stress, sadness, and issues. However, as Joel Osteen, another man that speaks for God, says above, these tough times are happening to you but for you. It is a learning experience. Like, failure, which is a tough time for most of us, we should see these in a positive light. What can we learn from it? What does it teach us?  How does it help us toward our feelings. Are we going to let it strengthen us or defeat us?

See the positive in the negative events in your life and you will grow.

Go Out Today and Think Positive About the Negatives in Life

S2-E38 – Leadership is not genetic. Leaders are made not born.

The most dangerous leadership myth is that leaders are born – that there is a genetic factor to leadership. This myth asserts that people simply either have certain charismatic qualities or not. That’s nonsense; in fact, the opposite is true. Leaders are made rather than born.
~ Warren G. Bennis

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E39_Warren_G_Bennis_-_Leaders_Final.mp3

 

 Thank you, Mr. Bennis. Warren G. Bennis was a scholar and renowned author on leadership. Perhaps one of the the founders and forerunners of the modern leadership movement, Warren Bennis has debunked the myth that leaders are born. That cannot be farther from the truth.

As, Mr. Bennis said, the thought that people are born with leadership skills, that it’s part of genetics is total nonsense, a myth.

Leaders are made. Leaders learn skills as leadership itself is a skill. Many people with upbringings that are less than stellar, with ancestors that were far from leaders have made great leaders.

They learned the skills necessary to lead and then applied those skills. Charisma is not necessarily a genetic trait. Many people learn the science and mechanics to understand life and people and then take that into their mental thought processes and become that person. That leader.

This thought, I believe, stems from the male-dominated business environments of the past where they believed that only men were capable of being leaders. Therefore, they had the genetic makeup required to be leaders. Well, we all know this is bunk. Let’s face it, there have been many great leaders that have been women. There genetic makeup had nothing to do with it.

Don’t let this old myth stop you from striving to be a good leader. Learn what makes a good leader. Then strive to be a great leader.

Thank you for listening to Goal Getting Podcast. I am going through some transitions in life. As I do this I started thinking about my original goal for the podcast. The original goal was to provide tips, strategies and inspiration to Goal Getters. I had originally set the podcast up as a weekly edition with then intent of sharing the lessons of my Goal Achievement Success System and to interview expert guests that has achieved success in areas of their life that you Goal Getters might be working on yourself.

I started an experiment in July of last year providing the Goal Getting Quote of the Day. It was well received and I had a lot of you start following me because of that addition. The frequency went from 1 day a week to 7 days a week, with one day being the Weekly lesson, interview.

With my career change in September, which you may remember was a goal I had set and achieved 2 years sooner than I expected, my schedule has gotten busier at work. I took a winter break to start Season 2 which would be longer segments focusing on a quote and a longer lesson to go along with that quote. I wanted to keep the podcast down to less than 20 minutes.

With the new transition and the increased workload at the office and my #WorkOnWellness goal I am committed to, I realize that I must go back to the original plan of the podcast.

I will be reverting back to the original one show per week beginning in May. I will do three days this week and next, I hope.  That is my goal for the next two weeks.

I hope you understand and will continue to support Goal Getting Podcast. Let me know what you think.

S2-E37 – Don’t waste a minute not being happy. If the window won’t open. . .

Don’t waste a minute not being happy. If one window closes, run to the next window – Or break down a door.
~ Brooke Shields

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E37_Brooke_Shields_-_Be_Happy.mp3

A better thought has not been said. Life is too short to be unhappy for a minute. Don’t waste your life, your time, on being unhappy. It is up to you to determine your happiness. If you aren’t happy in a situation, you can choose to be happy or remove the unhappiness.

As Brooke Shields says, if one window closes, run to the next window. Our life has many windows. We just have to be prepared to run to the next and then the next. Don’t just stare out the same window if it’s a window to unhappiness. The view will likely be better elsewhere.

What’s more, her further statement is even greater. Just break down a door. When you are unhappy, it is sometimes better to knock down the door to get out of one room or to get into the next room.  Don’t be afraid to be assertive. If the door won’t won’t open for you, knock it down.

S2-E36 – People fail when they quit becoming.

Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.
~Anais Nin

 

Click Below to Listen to Today’s Show

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E36_Anais_Nin_Life_is_a_process_of_becoming_Final.mp3

The thought that life is becoming is true. It never is, it is always becoming. We are ever changing. We go through stages and states in life. We do things and try things, we experience life. Passion drives us in many new areas and many new experiences. When we get to the point where we find a state and decide to stay in that state, that stage, we are in, as Anais Nin says, a kind of death.

My friend Bud, says, Without change there is is no growth. When we don’t grow, we become stagnant. We essentially die. Only dead things don’t grow.

When people lose their passion for new experiences, new states, new stages their mind starts to atrophy. Do you know people like this. Instead of working to move to the next state, they stay dormant. I know people like that. They are stuck in the past. They don’t see the new experiences as a form of growth. They don’t see the new experiences as a positive. They want to be what they are or more so what they were at one time.

This is not healthy. Life moves on. Life grows. Experiences change and new friends and feelings form. We all must seek to experience new changes, to keep becoming. If not, we die. If not physically certainly mentally, emotionally, or spiritually.

Go Out Today and Keep Becoming! Enjoy the States You Experience

S2-E35 – Let the beauty of what you love be what you do. –Rumi

Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.”
~Rumi

 

Click Below to Listen to Today’s Show

http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E35_Rumi_Do_what_you_love_Final.mp3

This is a simple quote. When you are in love or doing what you love, life is beautiful. When we love something, it is beautiful. Whether we love a man, a woman, art, a flower, an pet, a place, whatever we love, it is beautiful. Rumi, the 13th century Persian poet often spoke about love. Here he is talking about how the beauty of what we love should be what we do.

This 13th century idea is about what we call Passion today. When we are passionate about things, we see the great beauty in them. Rumi’s wisdom here is that we should be doing what we love. When we are doing what we love, life is beautiful. Life is happy.

I keep mentioning the sign I saw on Facebook, but it resonated so deeply with me that I keep thinking about it.

If you think about something day in and day out, every waking moment – and it makes you happy. You should be doing that.

I believe Rumi would think the same. When you think about something day in and day out, every waking minute, you are in love with it. It is beautiful to you. It is your mind’s focus. If it makes you happy, you should be doing that.

Love what you do. If it is a career, love what you do. I heard someone say recently, No job pays enough to suck! Same thing simplified.

Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life.

I’m just full of these one liner quotes in this episode about passion in your work. I am big on passion these days. I believe we have to have passion for what we do, who we are with and in living a passionate life. Live life to it’s fullest.

Go Out Today and Let The Beauty Of What You Love Be What You Do!

Passion, it lies in all of us, sleeping… waiting… and though unwanted… unbidden… it will stir… open its jaws and howl. It speaks to us… guides us… passion rules us all, and we obey. What other choice do we have?”

Man, I love this quote about passion. I am going to take it, print it and put it on my wall. Josh Whedon is a great director and screenwriter. He is a quote master as well when it comes to passion. In his line of work, it takes passion to succeed. It takes passion to create and bring a movie to market.

I think Josh is correct. We all have Passion. It is within us all as we grow. Children have passion. Too often it is stifled as we grow. But at some time, for most of us it will stir. It will open it’s jaws and howl as Josh says.

Passion when we pay attention to it speaks to us, it does guide us, it does rule us all, and we must obey it when it rises within us.  What choice do we have?

If we don’t obey it will drive us crazy, it will fill us with stress and longing. You must obey when passion comes to call. You must use that passion to take on your challenges each day.

Take passion and use it for yourself and for others. You are the champion of passion if we obey.

Go Out Today and Choose To Use It! Use The Passion Inside You!

S2-E33 – What the world needs is people who have come alive.

Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
~Howard Thurman

Because what the world needs is people who have come alive. – What the world needs is more people with passion that act on that passion and come alive to succeed.

Howard Thurman has probably heard the same thing I have heard. Ask yourself what the world needs and you will be successful. He doesn’t necessarily agree with this. Why? Because if you just try to do what others want, you will eventually not be willing to do it any longer. As soon as the joy runs out, as soon as you stop believing that the world is right about what they want or as soon as you stop believing in the same thing, you will quit. You will not have the passion it takes to keep that goal alive.

What Thurman is saying is to ask yourself what makes you come alive. What is your passion. Passion makes us come alive. It makes us get excited about things. When you find your passion, what it is that makes you come alive, then go and do that.

It reminds me of a sign I saw recently on Facebook – If you think about something day in and day out, with every waking moment, and it makes you happy, You should be doing that!

That’s the same thought that Thurman has here. Don’t worry about what everyone else wants or needs. Think about what makes you come alive! What makes you happy. Then go out and do that.

The world needs more people that have come alive. People that have come alive with a passion for something they believe in will do what it takes to succeed.

Go Out Today and Find What Makes You Alive – And go do that!

S2-E32 – There is no greatness without a passion to be great . . . Tony Robbins

There is no greatness without a passion to be great, whether it’s the aspiration of an athlete or an artist, a scientist, a parent, or a businessperson.
~Anthony Robbins

There is no greatness without a passion to be great! Passion is the driver for human greatness. We’ve been talking about passion for the last week. I believe that passion is the biggest motivator of mankind. People who become great, who strive for greatness do so because they have a passion for their beliefs.

Without passion, there is no intensity, no burning desire to complete or be anything. That’s the sad state of the world today. People don’t have passion for their own beliefs. Those with passion for their beliefs work to make themselves great, to make their countries great, to make their religions great.

Whether that belief is good or bad, passion is what drives the person to do the things they do. They have the burning desire to succeed at what they do.

Imagine if we all had that passion for good. If we had the same passion for the good beliefs, what could we do?  If we believe in our own greatness and the ability of our goals to be great, we will set the bar high. We will set ourselves to move toward greatness instead of mediocrity.

Go Out Today And Use Your Passion For Greatness to Be Great, To Create Great Things.
