How to Exercise Your Vision

Filed under: Cultivating Passion and Significance — Tags: , , , , , , — Freedom Personal Development @ 6:00 am

David DenisDo you remember the ads in comic books for X-Ray specs? Hmmmm. What if, rather than glasses that let you see people naked, you could look behind the mundane circumstances, beyond the difficulties and obstacles and through the fog that surrounds us to see the opportunities and possibilities that exist all around you.

That is the virtue of vision, and you can train yourself to do it.

Seeing is the first step to forging that better reality. In sports, your body follows the direction your eyes are looking. In the same way your will, your intellect and your spirit will move in the direction of your inner vision. You can create it if you can first see it in your mind and in your heart. Seeing it Read More...

Understanding the Law of Attraction

Filed under: Goal Setting — Tags: , , , , , , — Eric Plantenberg @ 6:00 am

Eric PlantenbergIf you are like most people, you are hearing the buzz about the Law of Attraction (LOA). And if you are like most people, you get the gist of it… kind of. Let’s get clear right away about what the LOA is and what it is not. The LOA states that your focus determines your reality. The focus of your thoughts, feelings, and actions cumulatively determines your reality.

The LOA is not some incomprehensible force that mysteriously manifests your every thought into certain reality. This is very important to understand for several reasons.

First and foremost, the LOA is not 100% responsible for every event that happens in your life. Crazy, Read More...

First, we must understand what the Law of Attraction is. Understand it’s nothing new; it’s been around since the beginning of time. It’s a law of nature. The Law of Attraction basically states that everything that you have in your life, every positive thing in your life, is a result of you attracting it. That’s pretty easy for people to accept, but the Law of Attraction also states that everything negative in your life you’ve also Read More...

I am going to tell you how you can improve the quality of your life by paying attention to and changing the words you use. If you have heard of the Law of Attraction, then you probably understand that people attract what they think about. In other words, your thoughts, positive or negative, determine your destiny.

Your Thoughts Create Your Reality

(1. Right click the link 2. Choose “Save Target As”)

According to the dictionary definition, reality means “the state or quality of being actual or true.” If something is true then everything contrary to it is not true. Or in other words, is not reality. Therefore, there must only be one reality.

Yet I’ve heard so many people say things like, “That may be true for him, but that’s not true for me.” But truth be told, what is true in this world for one person is Read More...

The Purpose of External Accountability is……

Tom WeberIf you remember, yesterday I asked the question “What is the purpose of external accountability?” Many of you didn’t have an answer, and if you are like most people you were wondering why I included the word “external” in the question.Well, today the answer shall be revealed. And it will change the way you feel when someone else helps to keep you accountable or when you ask someone to be your accountability partner.

Think about this, why would we ask someone to hold us accountable? It is because when we tell someone else we are going to do something, we will keep ourselves more on track to accomplish that thing, be it a task, assignment, or goal so that we Read More...

What is the Purpose of External Accountability?

Tom WeberAccountability is one of the most powerful tools and motivators that many of us have at our disposal. Most of us have had either an accountability buddy, coach or manager that held us accountable from time to time. But most of us do not realize that there are different types of accountability and that they each have a separate purpose.

We are all familiar with external accountability. That is when someone else holds us accountable. We must understand its purpose before we graduate to the next level of accountability. Without understanding the purpose of external accountability it can sometimes feel as if our accountability buddy or manager is pushing us around, micro managing, or giving us a guilt trip Read More...

Living in the Present

Filed under: Personal Freedom — Tags: , , , , , , , , — Freedom Personal Development @ 6:00 am

Ken BudkaWhen you think about it, life really is just a series of moments. It is a collection of activities, encounters, adventures, interactions with other people and just the things that we do.How enjoyable and fulfilling we find our life is directly related to our attention and our focus in the one second that is now, the moment which is our life.

Realistically, the time that we spend with other people, with our friends, family, even our clients or associate, doing things in our life, it is all very finite. We might think that there will come another time, a down the road or a next time. But that moment often does not materialize. And even if it does, it is a different timeframe, a different perspective and Read More...
