Success is an accomplishment, whether it be great or small and it's an understanding of the potential and power of an entire human life. Success is an awareness of value and it's the cultivation of value through discipline.
It can be tangible or intangible successes of process of turning away from something in order to turn towards something else from no exercise to exercise from Kandi to fruit from not investing to investing successes responding to an invitation, an invitation to change to grow, to develop, to become to move up to a better place. So, with a better vantage point, but most of all success is making your life. What you wanted to be? Considering all the possibilities considering all the examples.
What do you want for your life? That is the big question. Remember success is not a set of Standards from our culture, but rather a collection of personal values clearly defined and ultimately achieved. I learned the law of sowing and reaping And in the law of sowing and reaping is also the story of the law of averages jot. This down, the story of the sower, come from the Bible. I'm an amateur on the Bible but
this is such a useful story. Here's what the story says, and take the notes because the drama is in the details. The solar was ambitious. Evidently he was ambitious. When you read the whole story, you'll conclude. Yes, this was an ambitious sower. Here was number two, he had excellent seed the sower who sowed the seed had excellent seed. And the excellent seed can be an excellent opportunity and excellent product, and excellent stool. So we've got an ambitious or with Excellency.
But now here's the rest of the details of the story for your information, for the drama of your life. So you can understand things better learning. Some of this is how I got rich by age 30. Number one, it says the store goes out to sow the seed, but the first part of the seed Falls by the wayside and the birds get it so jot, this down, the birds are going to get some of the sea. The birds are going to get some of the sea now, you say, well, mr. On. What does that mean?
Well, I invite John to come to a meeting. He said, he'd be there, Tuesday night, Tuesday night, I show up. John isn't there? I say, John, I wonder why John didn't make it now? I know the answer. The birds, the birds John had this great idea of coming to the meeting to look at an opportunity and somebody stole it and said, you're not gonna go see network marketing. And he says well maybe not so every jot that down now the
birds are going to get some. Now when the birds get some you've got two options, number one is to chase Birds. And say, well let me get a hold of the person to talk to you. Now to come to the meeting, I'll tear him a new page but I wouldn't do this. Here's what happens if you go chasing birds, you leave the field. If you go chasing birds now you leave the field which is going to distract from your future not bad. So you can't chase birds and try to straighten this stuff out.
Here's what it is. It's just one of those things. And here's the best comment, when things are a little disappointing. Isn't that interesting? You just, you just have to say, I thought sure he would be there, he promised promised, but I know it was the birds and you just have to say isn't that interesting philosophy? Philosophy is the Chief Cornerstone in the foundation of the five. Major pieces to the life puzzle. A major factor in determining, how our lives turn out.
Is the way we choose to think everything that goes on inside the human mind in the form of thoughts, ideas, and information, forms, our personal philosophy, our philosophy then influences, our habits and behavior, and this is really where it all begins. How our personal philosophy is formed. Our personal philosophy comes from what we know and from the process of how we came to know, all that we currently know throughout our lives, we receive input from a multitude of sources.
What we know comes from school, friends, Associates media, influences home, the streets. It comes from books and the process of reading and it comes from listening and observing the sources of knowledge and information that have contributed to the formation of our Current philosophy are virtually unlimited as adults. All of the new information that comes our way is examined through the filter of our personal philosophy. Those Concepts that seem to
agree with the conclusions. We have already reached our added to our Storehouse of knowledge and serve to reinforce our current thinking. Those ideas that seem to contradict our beliefs are usually quickly rejected. We are constantly in the process of Checking our pre-existing beliefs for accuracy, or confirmation in the light of new
information as we blend. The new with the old, the result is either the strengthening of our past beliefs, or the broadening of our current philosophy in light of new, and valuable information about life and people the same beliefs that form our personal philosophy. Also determine our value systems. You know, the people you surround yourself with having a phenomenal impact God in your life. I think it was Karl menninger from the Medical Foundation. One Time said, environment is
more important than heredity. The people were surrounded by have a greater bearing on our life and our success in life, then what's built into the jeans at Birth? There's genetic condition. There's environmental conditioning. Well, this environmental conditioning goes on all the way through life. You will find as you improve the quality of your life, improve your thinking, you're going to attract a different group of people in your life and they are going to add to your life.
See the people were surrounded by their thinking is going right into our mind. We want to mix with people who are really making it happen. Take a look at your five people that you're with most often and ask yourself. If I have children, what I want them to grow up to be like that. The answer is no, we better start looking for some new friends. If the answer is yes, you're already in the right circle of people, think about what I'm
saying. The people who are surrounded with have a phenomenal impact on my life and helped make us who we are. And the majority of the fears that we have are not life or death fears, and not, those kind of fears, but through our imagination, We blow them out of proportion and we give them more power than they actually have or deserve. And we permit them to govern Our Lives. We permit them to determine how far we can stretch out on our dreams and discovering our
stuff. And as we begin to look at ourselves and begin to wait a minute, just getting to the point. As you assess yourself, then begin to prove yourself and just a way whole admit Holloman I've been sweating this out. What can what's the worst thing that can happen to me on this? Will it kill me? Will I die? Why am I going through all of these changes over this? How much power does this really
have? And I am I the one that's feeding the power into it. So, a lot of times, we, we allow ourselves to be fed and to be programming to, to being afraid of you. Watch the news and read the newspaper. You'll be scared to come out the house. Am I, right? You be afraid. So what kinds of things? What kind of thoughts are you feeding your Consciousness? What kind of things are you putting in your mind that will enable you to either move forward or to justify why you
are staying? Where you are? Another piece that I look at that. When I finally decided that I was going to go to the dentist pain was so great. I couldn't hold out any longer. All of a sudden the fear that matter I give or take me my some people need fear, you know, have a friend that we told him. Hey man, do you need to lose some weight you getting overweight and out of shape? And at all age we need to have a regular program and buts it. Man, I've been fat since I was a
little boy. You know, I'm big boned. I've never seen a fat skeleton though. Your Well, but became ill, how many of you ever see the best skills and raised? Yeah. Alright, but became ill passed out and I was there. The doctor was talking to him, and but I think was going to go right back to the same old eating habits and doing everything, you know, is it look? Here you are a diabetic, is it? Now here are some of the side effects. You know, you could go blind.
You can become an amputee none of that touch tape. He said, you can become impotent, he said, Yusei has lost weight exercises every day. He's in the body sculpt tree. 48 years young, he looks great. I can't believe but just that one statement made all the difference in the world but is our new man today. So what is it that has to happen to you? Some people don't take her Corrective measures to improve their health, until they get a pronouncement. That they're about to die.
Then this daughter. Okay. All right. I'm ready to do whatever you want me to do, but they won't do that. They can see people drop it off, like flies around there. Well, that's them. You got to go from something. We go through life. Really blocking ourselves constantly and fears. One of the greatest instruments that we could use to stifle our true potential. When you begin to look at your life, you can decide to use fear as a blocker, or you can decide to use it as building blocks
that you decide. Hey, look here, I'm going to move in this direction. I'm not going to allow anything to stop me from doing what I want to do. Real Shake somebody's hand on your, right. And left and say, I'm unstoppables persuasion anything. So if you want to persuade your children, if you want to persuade someone to take a look
at your faith. If you want to persuade someone in business, if you want to persuade someone to help you in anything or help them in anything, it's real simple for me. Monster belief and so you can't transfer to me that which you're not experiencing yourself, right? So you can't give me a people. Always try to come with a magic word. The magic, close the magic. This and there are words, you shouldn't shouldn't use and persuasion. No. About it right there.
Are think there are words that are more effective than other words and clearly to be successful in any business, you need to know what those words are in your business, but the best persuaders the best motivators. The best speakers, the best physicians, the best school teachers, the best parents are incredible.
Persuaders, and what they do is they come from a monster place of conviction and belief that they can transfer you to, because people respond to energy much more than they do words. They respond to what they feel. Not what they hear and see here and see are real low. All influencers energy Spirit transfer of energy is what people respond to. And so I'm cognizant all the time of getting in a state of total belief in certainty about what it is that I'm going to
represent or speaking. If I'm speaking on stage about a particular topic and then transferring that energy into people and that seems generic or hokey but it's actually what great persuaders do. In fact, if you're listening to this, you think of anybody that you know who's incredibly persuasive, they may have great words, they probably do, but it's something you feel. Them right? But that's the difference between a great doctor and a so-so doctor. Great doc says, here's the
prescription. You're out of here. Another one is going to work or not. I know another one you leave there feeling that. You're going to be healed. Fiddling you're in good hands you feel their certainty. You feel their confidence. Say when you hear a speaker, if you're buying real estate from somebody but it's not just buying things, it's a great Pastor in a church, a great person if you do TM who's taught UTM, it's their certainty, it's the energy you feel.
And so, for me, it's always getting to, I have to really believe Of what I'm saying. I have to really feel it to transfer to
