Are You Ready to Build a Solid Foundation?

Invest a little time to introspect and ask yourself - "How strong is the foundation of your life right now"? "Are you content that you have built a rock solid base, from which you can launch your future success"? I believe the foundation of your life is built on your values, which are comprised of your character, integrity, belief, loyalty and honesty. To truly be successful in life you need to ensure that you have a foundation, which is harmonious and based on all the crucial elements of your personal values.

I have seen people compromise on their values, where they have walked all over other people to acquire great financial wealth, using deceit as a tool for their success. These people appear to have all the flashings, which go with success, but they lack true friends and deep relationships with people, who matter. There are also those business professionals, who invest so much time into their corporate lives that they alienate their families, as they climb the corporate ladder. Or the business tycoon, who has acquired great financial wealth, but is lying alone in his bed in the hospital recovering from his second triple heart bypass operation. None of these people have an understanding of balance and harmony in their lives.

You must Invite Harmony or Balance into your Life

As my experience grows and the more I see people around me compromise on their values. Where they live lives, which are out of sync with the harmony and balance in the universe, the more convinced I become that we have a responsibility to not only focus on one element in our lives, at the expense of any other. We must strive for harmony and always remain in alignment with our authentic self. We can never be content or fulfilled, if we live in a place which is unbalanced or out of sync with the universe or our own inner values. Your values are the cornerstone of your happiness and contentment.

As you know, We are thinkers and Doers

We all think thoughts, which drive our actions or lack thereof. As you know we also act according to our most dominant thoughts. So if your dominant thoughts are focused on lack, negativity or losing, that is exactly what you will get to see in your life. I believe that we are all wonderful creators and winners in our own unique and special way. So if you want to achieve success and meaning in your life, you must act in alignment with your values and must remain focused on thinking positive developmental thoughts.

Now is the time to Think better thoughts

You are where you are, because of what you have thought up until now. So if you want to change where you are going to end up one year, five years or even ten years from now, you must change the way you think. Your thinking drives your choices and decisions, which in turn determine the actions you take or fail to take and as the actions you take or fail to take, determine the results you experience. The obvious way to improve your results is to change the way you think.

Build your Foundation Stones?

Invest some time to think about your values or the foundation stones I have described earlier in this article, namely character, integrity, belief, loyalty and honesty. These make up the raw materials your mind uses to create all its thinking. You are at the core of all your thinking. So as you can imagine your thoughts determine, what you have, what you do and are the key factors determining the results you will get to enjoy in your life.

They are effectively the code, which determines how your life will turn out in the end. Unlimited opportunity resides within you. It is time to accept that success is not a result of chance, but choice. Make the wiser choice right now and choose to be authentic, live according to your true values and success is yours for the taking.

Tony Robbins: Formula to Becoming Unstoppable

How an Attitude of Gratitude Changes Everything

Just had to share this post from Bob Procter, which epitomises why being grateful is a must, for positive impacts in our lives. Enjoy! 

Most people know it’s good to be grateful, but many don’t understand what gratitude really does for us.

Expressing gratitude instantly shifts your energy. It puts you in harmony with your source of supply so that the good in everything moves toward you.

I like the way Wallace Wattles puts it in “The Science of Getting Rich.” He said, “The grateful mind is constantly fixed upon the best. Therefore, it tends to become the best; it takes the form or character of the best and will receive the best.”

Many people express gratitude first thing in the morning or before going to bed at night. Well, here’s another time to express it: whenever you feel overwhelmed with problems.

You see, if you have challenges in your life that are dominating your thinking—a shortage of money, a business problem, a relationship problem—you will have a tendency to focus on the problem. And by doing that, you add energy to the problem. And then the problem grows.

The next time things don’t seem to be going your way, just stop what you’re doing, and think about all of the things you have to be grateful for. I know that’s a pretty tall order, but if you do it, everything will start to shift in an instant. Just like snapping your fingers. When you change the way you look at the problems, the problems will change.

I gave Sandy similar advice a while back…

I had done a seminar in Phoenix and Sandy was going through a rough time in her life. I was leaving town and she asked if we could grab a cup of coffee before I flew out.

So we went to a coffee shop, and she asked if I could give her a few ideas to help her maintain a positive attitude. I said sure, and then I picked up a napkin and grabbed a pen. On the top of the napkin, I wrote: Every morning think of ten things that you are grateful for.

Then, I said, “When you get finished writing the ten things down, send love to three people who are bothering you.”

Now most people have difficulty doing that. If someone is really bothering them, they send bad energy to that person. Don’t do that, send love to them—not for the other person’s sake, but for yours. Sending love puts you in a wonderful vibration that will attract good things to you.

The third thing I told Sandy to do was to be quiet for five minutes and ask for guidance for the day.

Sandy wasn’t sure that it would work, but she did it anyway—and it worked. I knew it would work because gratitude shifts our energy to what’s good, and that attracts more of what you want.

Gina, my executive assistant, created a daily gratitude exercise of the tips I provided to Sandy. We recently shared this exercise with the PGI team, and now we’re sharing it with you as something you can use to attract more good things into YOUR life.

Just print this form and do this gratitude exercise every day. I guarantee your life will shift.
