It has been said that it takes 21 days of consistent action to change a behavior
or create a new habit. Often times we want something different but old tapes
continue to play in our head that keep us from reaching our goals and dreams.
This can range from trying to drop 10 lbs to gaining the courage to start your
work at home based business.
The truth is going from an employee to an
entrepreneur can be a little scary. However one of the ways to reduce fear and
increase success is to lean on the wisdom and experience of others who have been
successful in life.
Some may be famous and others not. Nevertheless, the
wisdom if you choose to listen can help you create a paradigm shift in thinking
which the foundation to massive success. I have always loved to listen to the
champions that have gone before.
Here are 21 quotes that I have thought
about often and used to inspire me to down size my boss and it can do the same
for you.
1. Once in a while it really hits people that they don't have to
experience the world in the way they have been told to. ---Alan
Keightley
Were you told to go to school and get a good job? I was. While
I know my mother meant well and thought she was preparing me tobe able to have
access to the pearly gates of success she could not know how things would
change.
However, I knew that I wanted more? How about you? Remember, you
don’t have to settle for 60 hour work weeks, 30 minute commutes, your kids in
day care or relocating for the promise of career advancement. You don’t have to
be part of the grind…the rat race.
2. You will never change your life
until you change something you do daily. --- Mike Murdock
Are you afraid
to get started? It may seem overwhelming but if you focus on simply daily
actions the big goals take care of themselves.
3. No one lives long
enough to learn everything they need to learn starting from scratch. To be
successful, we absolutely, positively have to find people who have already paid
the price to learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals ---.
Brian Tracy
Get help right out the gate. Find a mentor, coach,
mastermind or become a part a community that will help to support you in your
success. You want to become a life long learner. Attend seminars and boot camps
in your specialized area knowledge. When you learn from people who have been
successful and you model their activities you will get their results.
4. By stretching yourself beyond your perceived level of confidence
you accelerate your development of competence. --- Michael J. Gelb
The
only way to gain confidence in a certain area is to take action. It is in the
action you will start to have small victories which will increase your level of
success.
5. If you don't program yourself, life will program you! ---Les
Brown
Don’t let other people make decision for your life. If you have no
plan on you will create wealth during your working years your employer will.
Have no retirement plan? You don’t the government to be your strategy. Remember,
it’s your life and it’s now or never.
6. There are two primary choices
in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for
changing them. ---Denis Waitley
No matter what your current conditions
are you have the opportunity to change them. However, this only can happen if
you take total responsible for the direction of your life. If you don’t like
where you are forgive yourself and focus on solutions. Don’t focus on problems
or why you think something can’t happen. Start to ask powerful questions the
answers will start to appear.
7. Everything you need you already have.
You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice
person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you
and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality. --- Dr. Wayne
Dyer
8. Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear
is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that
most frightens us. Who are we NOT to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and
fabulous? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. We
were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in
some of us; it's in us all. ---Marianne Williamson
When I first heard
this quote it brought tears to my eyes. What talent or gift do you have that you
are allowing fear to rob you from achieving? Doing what you were called to do it
is bigger than you. You are unique and sharing your gift with someone could make
a difference in their life. Are you playing it too small? Are staying in a job
that doesn’t stretch you? What can you do to make a difference?
9.
You'll see things "you never knew you never knew." --- Disney's
Pocahontas
The journey and pursuit of freedom allows you to see the world
in a different way than others. As you grow you will naturally see opportunities
that others can not see. Jason Oman author of Conversation with Millionaires
calls it “Money Goggles.” Even if you were in a pitch black room you will have
infrared vision in the area of creating opportunities to make money.
10.
A different world cannot be built by indifferent people. ---Peter
Marshall
You can’t have what you want in life by being indifferent.
Successful people are passionate and sometimes radical in pursuit of their
dreams. Don’t allow yourself to be in environments that discourage
you.
11. What is it that you like doing? If you don’t like it, get out of
it, because you’ll be lousy at it. You don’t have to stay with a job for the
rest of your life, because if you don’t like it you’ll never be successful in
it. ---Lee Iacocca
Why would you ever spend most of your waking hours
doing something that you don’t like? The key to success is finding something you
love to and set the standard for excellence.
12. Simply making consistent
investments in our self-education and knowledge banks pays major dividends
throughout our lives. --- Jim Rohn
The self-education I have pursued
after college has been my greatest return on investment. There is something to
be said when you develop skills that you know will support you in any economy.
Specialized knowledge applied with all out massive results will yield hefty
financial and emotional rewards.
13. Finding your purpose may be a
lifelong pursuit or you may have discovered it when you were 5 years old.
There’s no absolute timeline for anyone. That’s a good reason never to give up,
to keep on discovering things every day. --- Donald Trump
If you have not
discovered your life’s purpose don’t be hard on yourself. Start to ask yourself
questions and enter into a discovery process. Allow yourself to dream without
concerns of how you will get it done. Every time you think you have found the
answer did a little deeper with more questions. Rarely are your true goals,
purpose and desires on the surface of your soul. Often times they have been put
away for safe keeping to protect yourself from disappointment. Keep discovering
new things until your purpose is crystal clear.
14. What material success
does is provide you with the ability to concentrate on other things that really
matter. And that is being able to make a difference, not only in your own life,
but in other people's lives. ---Oprah Winfrey
When you get the money out
of the way your world expands even greater. Oprah exemplifies this principle.
She now looks for ways to help others in everything she does. Whether it is
giving more support to your family or contributing to a worthy cause, having
freedom as a work from home entrepreneur will allow you make your mark in the
world.
15. The world cares very little about what a man or woman knows;
it is what the man or woman is able to do. --- Booker T. Washington
So
what can you create and add value to the world? I love this quote because it
demonstrates very clearly that what matters are results at the end of the day.
Don’t get caught up in theories. Make sure you are constantly taking action that
moves you towards a specific goal.
16. There are risks and costs to
action. But they are far less than the long-range risks of comfortable inaction.
--- John F. Kennedy
Are you so afraid to fail that you just can’t get out
of the box? Don’t be. Many people have “failed” their way to million dollar
empires. It is better to do something and be wrong then to do nothing at all.
When you choose to do nothing someone else usually makes a decision that impacts
you and you ending up doing something you don’t want to do.
17. I don't
believe in circumstances. The people who get on in this world are the people who
get up and look for circumstances they want. --George Bernard Shaw
There
is no such thing as luck. You create the luck by working and preparing for the
opportunity. When you start to put yourself out there the universe gives back.
Make sure you are clear of your intentions and then go and make it
happen.
19. It's not the hours you put in your work that counts, it's the
work you put in your hours. --- Sam Ewing
You have the same 24 hours in
the day as Bills Gate and Oprah. Don’t sabotage yourself by saying, “Well they
can do it because their rich.” Unless you inherit wealth there is a price that
everyone has to pay. You don’t have to work all day at your work from empire.
However, you must consistently put time in if you want success.
20. You
must do the thing you think you cannot do. --- Eleanor
Roosevelt.
One of the greatest gifts you can give yourself is to do something you
think you can not do. It doesn’t have to be something huge. A simple action of
courage goes a long in adding to your confidence in every area of your
life.
21. You will never leave where you are, until you decide where
you'd rather be. --- Dexter Yager
Until you know your purpose you will be
at risk for staying in a job that slowly eats away at you. Why? You simply don’t
have a strong enough goal to leave your current job. When the goal is strong
enough you will search to find the answers.
