76. Stinking Thinking Makes Hope A Dope
    Many centuries ago there was a Greek philosopher who lived on the Aegean Sea and wanted to go to Carthage.

Well, ok then, I'm a Cadillac. :>). Nah…that's not the kind of thinking I talking about. What do you really think you are? Hmm…Just how organized and orderly are your thoughts?

77. Motivating Yourself To Succeed In Business
    You've got an idea for your business. Maybe it's a million-dollar idea. Most business ideas that end up being even remotely feasible could be turned into a million-dollar idea with the right tweaking. So you start out, gung-ho, to set the world on fire and get your idea off the ground. Then BAM! It happens. Your first obstacle. You try this, and then you try that; you try to go around it, up it, over it, through it, but nothing is working and you've just about given up hope. You're ready to thro…



78. Allow Yourself To Be Happy
    People often ask me explain my statements, and the title of this article usually has people forcefully telling me that it’s ‘the others’ that won’t stop them from being happy.Er, wrong.In fact, it *is* usually ourselves that stop us from being happy. Society and education gears us to expect life to be a slog, many decades of working in a job we don’t like, with the reward of, oh, let’s say a whitepicket fence to go with your borderline pension.This kind of mental conditioning leaves us more ofte…

81. Become your own Guru
    Become your own GuruBy Linda Landry (c)I have been an Internet 'marketeer' now for nearly a year. One ofthe first things I learned was there were a lot of people willing totell you how to make money on the net. I would get lost in cyberspace because I was redirected to sites offering to tell me howto become rich with little or no money to invest. It was usually anE-book they were selling. I purchased a few and I learned somethings but mostly that the way to become rich was to sell theirinformati…

85. Read Your Way To Public Speaking Success
    How to Read Your Way to Speaking Successby Mike MooreThe most important thing a speaker can do to enhance a career is to become an authority in their specific subject area. You want to reach a point where people automatically think of you when they are looking for information on your topic or are looking for a speaker for their event.To do this you must read extensively in your field. I believe that speakers are leaders and leaders are readers. If you don't read then listen to tapes or lectures…



86. Can One Person Increase Motivation in Another Person?
    The answer is yes, of course, right? People motivate other people. After all, what about coaches and inspirational speakers? They are paid to motivate other people to do great things. But ask the parent who would like to see a better report card, the boss who is sure to catch several employees off task at any give time, or the spouse who hates picking up someone else’s dirty laundry from the bathroom floor and you will hear that motivating others is IMPOSSIBLE!Consider the two types of motivatio…

88. Traveling Out Of Body
    I can see the cops coming! They're a good thousand feet away. I can clearly make out their uniforms and swinging nightsticks. How can I be seeing this?I didn't dare mention it to my fellow underage drinking mates lounging with me on the grassy knoll in the park. Am I making this up? Projecting it somehow into my vision? Forcefully, I shook my head back and forth in an effort to free my mind of its strange perception.But the view of the two police officers remained in my sight, as they sauntered …



89. Motivational Posters - Are They All Bad?
    Is there really a place for motivational posters in your home office? The thought of putting these posters in your home workspace may sound cheesy to say the least. Even worse it could even remind you of those dreaded, awful days when you were tied to a desk and forced to enjoy the company 'decoration' of mission statements, useless slogans and their idea of motivational posters (more like propaganda eh?). All these things were meant to make you more productive each day, to enhance your company …



90. WHAT INFORMATION CAN DO FOR YOU
    In many of the times you listened to radio broadcasting, read newspapers, books, magazines, and watch television shows. All you heard, read, and saw, are information.

It's just a matter of 'hanging in by the fingernails' with the hidden strength o…



92. Perception
    PERCEPTIONA friend of mine said to me one evening, “this is what I admire about you, whenever you say you’re gonna to do something, you do it”! People always ask me how do I stay motivated? How do I stay encouraged? Whenever I am asked this question my answer is always the same. I tell them that I stay focused and motivated by remaining in an autopilot mode. However, when I ponder that question on a deeper spiritual level, I come to the realization that the true answer is much more involved than…
