Creating a Winning Self-image

“The ”self-image” is the key to human personality and human behavior. Change the self image and you change the personality and the behavior.” – Dr. Maxwell Maltz It would be almost impossible to overstate the importance of the self-image. It molded our personality, defined our character, and it directs our behavior. The self-image is the [...]

Designing and Building a Life v/s Survival Mode

The position that we are presently holding in life matters little. What is really important is how we feel about it. A person who has the right attitude but only has a penny left in his name is in better position than the man who is desperate because he only has a million dollars left. [...]

Our Internal Bank of References

We have a mechanism inside of our brain that analyses every one of our experiences, determines what it means and then stores the results in our bank of references. The process started while we were very young and has been going on ever since. That is the process that allows us to perform automatically most [...]

The Importance of a Life’s Purpose

“Great minds have purposes, little minds have wishes.” – Irving Washington Every moment that we are awake, the little chatterbox in our mind is active. It’s a bit like a radio that cannot be shut off and, just like a radio; we have many different stations that we can tune in. Some of these stations [...]

The Best of Tony Robbins – Life Changing Words

One of the greatest milestones in my life came about the day that I stumbled upon the following citation by Tony Robbins, “Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity, and responsibility to give something back by becoming more.” When it is well understood and assimilated, this one sentence contains an entire [...]

The Art of Selective Ignorance

“Real knowledge is to know the extent of one’s ignorance.” – Confucius Strange as it may seem, in some cases, ignorance can be a blessing. Most of the world’s greatest achievements came to be because someone simply did not know that it could not be done. That’s when it would be appropriate to invoke the [...]

The Obsession to Win – A Component for Success

“A loser doesn’t know what he’ll do if he loses, but talks about what he’ll do if he wins, and a winner doesn’t talk about what he’ll do if he wins, but knows what he’ll do if he loses.” – Unknown Success is the end result of multiple victories honorably won. For that reason, anyone [...]

The Theory of Egoistic Altruism

You cannot give what you don’t have. Just as you cannot give away money that you don’t have, you cannot spread happiness if you’re not happy yourself. Same thing with love. Unless you are able to love yourself, you simply cannot truly love others. These may be shocking words for some but it’s the truth. [...]

The Process of Self-actualization

“Not only do you have to decide what results you are committed to, but also the kind of person that you’re committed to becoming.” – Anthony Robbins Basically, self-actualization means working toward becoming all that we can be. It should be a process that starts at birth and last until the last curtain falls. Unfortunately, [...]

The Reason that we Act the Way that we Do

As we forge our way through life, we are guided by our values and our personal map of the world. These two elements determine the way that we think and the way that we act. An understanding of this guiding mechanism is essential for anyone who wants mastery over his own life. Albert Einstein said, [...]

How to Avoid Frustration

“To live for results would be to sentence myself to continuous frustration. My only sure reward is in my actions and not from them.” – Hugh Prather Crushed expectancies create frustration which in turn leads to crushed self-image, blows to self-worth and major damage to self-confidence. The number one cause of procrastination is the very [...]

How to Get Real and Stay Positive

To be positive does not mean hiding the head in the sand and pretending that all is well when it’s not. If your shirt is on fire, it needs to be attended to. If you’re living off your credit cards, you are not in the land of plenty even if you’ve read The Secret and [...]

Feeling Good À la Carte

Feeling good is an art. It’s an art that can be learned, practiced and refined. We don’t need to wait for outside influences to make us feel good. It is possible to feel good most of the time and it’s also possible to feel good for no reason at all. For that though, we need [...]

How Achieve Self-improvement

Have you ever heard someone say, “I read a book on Positive Thinking once and it did not help me.” If that was not so sad, it would laughable. That’s like saying, “I skipped a meal once and I did not lose any weight.” It’s not what we do once that changes anything. Personal positive [...]

If You Don’t Take Control of your Life…

“In life you need either inspiration or desperation.” – Anthony Robbins Your ship is sailing. Either you grab the elm and steer it where you want it to go or someone else will do it for you. We are all on a grand voyage called life. It can be a fantastic odyssey of epic proportion [...]

Self-sabotage and Limiting Beliefs

“If you raise your standards but don’t really believe you can meet them, you’ve already sabotaged yourself. Our beliefs are like unquestioned commands, telling us how things are, what’s possible and what’s impossible. – Anthony Robbins It is said that if we redistributed equally among the population all the money available in the world, in [...]

Scanning the Brain for Virus and Malwares

Our computers are equipped with Anti-virus programs that will hopefully stop any malware from infecting our hardrive and affect the performance of our beloved PC. These programs are quite effective but, just to make sure that we have no bugs, we perform periodical scans. Unfortunately, our brain is not equipped with any Anti-virus program and, [...]

Succeed and Improve your Health

Tony Robbins defined success as, “Conducting your life in such a way that it gives you tons of pleasure and very little pain.” By that definition, success would be, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the best possible way to restore, promote, protect and enjoy the highest possible level of physical and mental health. Stress [...]

Why Self-improvement is Such a Slow Process

A wise man once said, “A message can go around the world in less than a second but it may take months or years for that same message to travel from the ears to the brain.” That is especially true when it comes to self-improvement. One of the strongest forces in the human organism is [...]
