What's the Best Use of Your Time?
Did you know that if you drive 25,000 miles per year,
you spend the equivalent of 13 40-hour weeks behind
the wheel? Imagine how much you could learn if you
were listening to audio programs instead of talk radio!
That's a full-time one semester academic program.
That could be your best way to change yourself.
Here's a good place to start. There are 15 CDs and
you'll learn a boatload of skills that will make your
success easier than you ever thought possible. Did
I mention that you save $200?
See the couple who bought the house of their dreams
that they thought was impossible, the salesman who manifested his dream car,
the failing real estate agent who went to #3 in all Canada and the sales manager who took
his insurance office in a little town of 17,000 people to the top - bigger in sales than New
York, Chicago or LA. How did they do it? Bob Proctor explains it all here and shows you how.**
Lead Article
Giving Away Your Power
“It is easy to dodge our responsibilities,
but we cannot dodge the consequences
of dodging our responsibilities.”
- - Josiah Charles Stamp
Here in the United States we're in the middle of the
political silly season that shows up every four years.
This is where otherwise intelligent people run around
making obviously impossible promises to otherwise
intelligent voters who argue passionately about
which impossible promise to believe.
Here's why this charade works - most people do not
want to take responsibility for their lives and their
choices. If they perceive a problem, they want
someone else to fix it, or pay for fixing it.
What most people don't realize is two things - our
lives work much better when we learn to take
responsibility, and when we play the victim we
give away our power.
If I choose to build a house in a river bottom or on
the Gulf Coast, should others be required to pay
to rebuild it (in the same place!) when the inevitable
happens and it's destroyed in a flood or hurricane?
If I have a job in a badly managed company or a
declining industry and I don't do anything to build
my skills to prepare me to move on, should others
be taxed to do it? The auto industry says yes.
If I get an impossibly high mortgage at impossibly
low rates, am I a victim to be bailed out when it
resets to a high rate in two years, just like the
documents I signed said it would?
Here's the point - if our problems are someone
else's fault, then we learn nothing from the
experience and we are powerless to fix it. What
does that predict for our future? More victimhood.
However if we take responsibility for our choices
we engage in a process of growth in which we
become ever more competent in life. We reclaim
our power by learning that we can recover from
our poor choices and not make them again.
Here's what I believe is fundamental about life.
We live in a Universe that's designed to support
us and we can create the lives we want by a
employing the tools of purpose, vision, faith,
gratitude and effective action. No victims need
apply.
Are you giving away your power to anyone?
Take it back now! It's a little more work at
first but you'll be glad you did.
To your success,
Wes
