Get ready for a golden idea that will accelerate your personal success beyond your imagination.
Are you like most of people who may sit with themselves and define their strengths and weaknesses?
And after that you start developing a plan to improve your weaknesses to become a better person.
And while applying your plan, you face a lot of difficulties and you might surrender with the excuse that it is a habit that can't be changed.
If you are like those people, then accept my apology: you are limiting your chances of success and putting yourself in a great struggle.
By following that method you are wasting time and effort and you are far beyond the fast track to ultimate personal success.
Now forget about that method and let me give you the golden idea to accelerate your personal success:
"Focus 80% of your time and energy building and improving your strengths and focus the remaining 20% on improving you weaknesses".
Don't say it is strange because your strengths will become weaknesses if you left them without continuous improvement.
Your strength will decrease fast while your weakness may improve slowly and you will end up being a "middle" person with no unique talent or value.
To be a person of value you have to focus on your uniqueness and special talent. Develop it, improve it, and the most important thing is: use it, use it and use it.
Forget about your weaknesses; no body is perfect. And focus on your strengths. Focus on the unique value you have more than anyone else.
If you do that you will accelerate your personal success and become a person of great value.
Build on your talents and strengths and don't give much attention to your weaknesses. No body is perfect.
Again, here is the golden idea for accelerating personal success:
"Focus 80% of your time and energy building and improving your strengths and focus the remaining 20% on improving you weaknesses".
My friend, you can make a difference.
I believe in you.

Manifest a Desire
What does it mean to manifest a desire? Lets look at the words manifest and desire. Manifest means to offer proof, attest to or to display clearly.
So when we say manifest a desire, we say to display your desire as having been fulfilled or to offer proof of something.
For example if your desire is to have a house and you eventually have gotten the house you wanted then its safe to say that your desire has been manifested.
Now I have first explained what it means to manifest a desire. So lets now talk about various ways that one can manifest a desire.
One of the ways and the most popular way to manifest a desire is through action. In other words you define what it is you want or desire and you start working on it.
But is that the best way to manifest a desire? I think not. Why do I say that. Action is effort and effort is taxing and besides, there's no guarantee that you will manifest your desires.
Just look around you in the world. Everybody is working themselves to a standstill, but does it mean they are getting what they want?
Hardly. They are just barely getting by. People are having houses and cars but its not really theirs. This is not really a good way to get the things you want.
There is another and better way to manifest a desire and it is to use your mind. You see your mind is much more powerful then many people realize.
When you use pure action to manifest your desires you are chasing after something that is doing it's best to run away from you. On the other hand, when you use your mind and the laws of the Universe you are attracting what you want towards you.
The benefits of using your mind to manifest a desire are many, but let me give you just a few.
* It takes less time,
* It takes less effort,
* You are happier,
* You have time to spend with the people you love,
* Your success is guaranteed
However when you try to manifest your desire through pure action, this is what you get.
* You may not enjoy what you do, like with most people, because you only do it to manifest a desire,
* You are constantly tired
* You are frustrated and angry that things are nor working out for you,
* You have no time for the people in your life because you're constantly working.
So as you can see from the above. Action is no substitute for pure focussed energy to manifest your desires faster then you can imagine.
Remember the times when you believed in yourself and were positive about something, how it went? And remember the times when you did something mechanically without really believing in it?
That's the power of belief and though demonstrated there.
You can manifest your desires and you can start today, using your mind.
Attract success instead of chasing it. Visit my website and discover the tools I use to manifest my desires.

How Do You Define Success?
"Success isn't a result of spontaneous combustion. You must set yourself on fire."
~Arnold H. Glasow
This really is a great quote. Not only is it interesting but also inspiring.
One of the truths that I find most frustrating as a teacher and a coach is that many people believe that success, in whatever field of endeavor they are currently striving, is rather like winning the lottery. In fact, it certainly seems from the evidence that they in fact believe that success is even more random because they aren't even buying a ticket. They are simply passively waiting.
If you listen to people talk you won't hear many people voicing this opinion of success but look around you and watch what people are actually doing--or rather not doing--and you will quickly see what I mean.
Many people want things--they want to be rich, they want to be at the top of their profession, they want a successful marriage, they want to raise great kids, they want to be respected in their community, and so on. But what do they do to achieve this success? Are they working both hard and smart toward their financial goals and living frugally while they do so? Are they constantly learning and striving at their job? Are they showing their spouse love, consideration, understanding, and generosity? Are they spending time with their children both modeling how to be a good person and being generous with their love and understanding? Are they regularly proving themselves an asset within their community by being a good neighbor in every sense of the word?
We all know that we must accomplish these tasks as I set them out to achieve success in these areas. Probably I missed something as well. I am hardly a model of success in every area. I would in fact describe myself as fair to middling. {g} I am certainly not rich but the bills get paid and our basics and then some are covered without too much stress. My boss, peers, and subordinates think I am doing a pretty good job as well as those that I serve professionally. While my marriage is in fairly good shape I know I could certainly put more into it. I think I have a great kid but know well my failings as a mother. I contribute to my community but no where near the level that I could or should.
How do you define success?
Is it money, career, love, marriage, family, friendship, respect, community?
For me, success is primarily about love. How many lives do I touch with mine? How many hearts? Who has been changed by my existence in a positive way? I hope that people judge me as a good person and that if I died tomorrow that there would be great mourning.
If we really want this success then we will set ourselves on fire. We won't wait for spontaneous combustion.

Are You A Time User Or A Time Waster?
If you are like me, you’ve often wished there were 48 hours in a day instead of just 24. There never seems to be enough time to get everything done that you want. Since we just have about 16 hours a day not counting sleep time, it’s important how we use the time we have.
On the average, people waste about 2 hours a day. This is mainly from poor planning. If a person is unorganized, they waste time trying to find things, they miss appointments, they only do one thing at a time when they could be doing two.
Good time management is a major building block to success. Oftentimes, it’s not how much time we spend working but how efficiently we do the work. The key to successful time management is careful planning and setting priorities.
Plan your day, your week, and your month in advance. Know when things need to be done. A great way to “buy time” is to multi-task. Do more than one thing at a time. There are many things that do not require concentrated mental effort. These are more easily combined.
“Failing to plan is planning to fail,”

Even though I am a big pro football fan, I can’t justify sitting down and spending three hours watching a game. I have to be doing other things while I do it. Thank goodness for instant replay! I’ve found this is a good time to spend icing injuries or some other busy work. I can also record the games and watch them while exercising. I exercise about 30 minutes a day so during the football season I can watch a game during the week without wasting any time doing it.
When you run errands try to do as many as you can on one trip. If you are self-employed, you can combine personal errands that are on the way to a business errand and have the mileage written off as a business expense.
I’ve been fortunate to have been able to work at home for the past ten years. It’s been great because I hate to waste time commuting. If you must commute, you can use the time to listen to audio self-improvement tapes, audio books or anything educational.
If you are a regular exerciser and belong to a gym, think about working out at home. If you lack the space and money for exercise equipment, try traditional body weight exercises. A little research on the Internet can show you websites devoted to this subject. Even though I lifted weights for 20 years, I’ve converted to body weight exercises. I’ve found they feel better and get the same if not better results. Of course, if you go to the gym to socialize or network, that’s okay. You’re doing more than one thing at a time. You can go walking with your wife. That way you’re getting exercise and husband / wife interaction at the same time.
Setting priorities enables you to get the most important things done. Keep you eye on the big picture. Don’t let low priority things bump off the higher priority tasks from your schedule. If you’ve only got so much time, it’s imperative you spend your time doing the things that bring you the most benefit.
“Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least.”
– Goethe
Time is so precious. If you want to be successful in life you need to be spending more time being productive and doing things that are moving you forward. Spending hours a day watching TV, playing computer games, or surfing the Internet is not productive time usage. We all need downtime but you need to determine how much is really necessary. If you use your productive time efficiently then you will have more time to relax and do the fun things.
