1. Have a look at your lifestyle
There may be various factors that play a role in the life that you are leading. These aspects may be taking away from you the ability to focus and concentrate appropriately.
Do you feel weak and tired, so you cannot concentrate properly? That could be because you are not having enough sleep, or you are not exercising, your diet may be unbalanced - either not eating enough or eating plenty of junk food - or perhaps you are overworked, stressed out or even burnt out.
Take a lifestyle check. See where you can improve on it.
2. What is your purpose?
Ask yourself a few simple questions to get your brainstorming session going. Questions such as: What is important to me right now? Is my job important to me? Is my relationship with my partner or spouse important to me? Is getting that promotion what I really want? How important is it for me to attend next week's event?
Get the idea? Ask the questions that pertain to you. Seek out what is important for you.
3. Set your objectives
Having goals and objectives is what gets us going, what motivates us to reduce watching TV and socialising with friends.
Objectives provide a clear focus on where you want to go and it excites within you the enthusiasm to pursue that goal. You will have a reason for getting up earlier in the mornings, for staying up a little later at night, or for putting the extra hour or two at the weekend.
Find your purpose, your objective for getting things done. Bring in some excitement into the project you are working on; become enthusiastic about it, then make it your priority to get it done, and find ways to enjoy working at it.
And when you finish that task, reward yourself with a well-earned five-minute break or pat on the back. Just reward yourself with something that really pleases you.
3 easy ways to get ahead in life
Befriend Your Fear
Fear is an illusion of the mind. It can cripple you and stifle your very existence if you don't know how to conquer or befriend your fear. Fear is the opposite of Faith or belief in oneself. If you are not confident in your abilities, fear is bound to plague you.
If you are a dreamer and want to accomplish your goals and dream, you have to put aside fear. It is reasonable to say that fear is a human condition that when felt can release such intense emotions that keeps you from moving forward. As long as you don't let the fear stop you from the pursuit of success, then it is Ok to feel the fear and still face your situation head one. Most people have fear of different things depending on the level of consciousness that they have become aware of in their lives.
Fear of failing, fear of success, fear of loneliness, fear of the unknown, fear of mistakes and fear of flying are some of the fears that cripple some people into living life at its fullest. There is no way that we can stop fear from showing up because since we are only human, it is quite likely that we will have some kind of fear. However, if you can reach inside and find a way to befriend that fear, it will eventually go away and you will be amazed that it wasn't really worth it.
Fear is a mechanism to challenge you. The television show, "Fear Factor," exemplifies this fact. If you learn how to get past the fear, you can become successful and experience the joy and relief of relinquishing that fear.
If fear is stopping you from fulfilling your dreams, you may need a coach or mentor to help you to recognize your fear, embrace your fear, and diffuse your fear. Let your coach or mentor assist you in releasing the fear and not allowing it to control you. You may need some tools to equip you on how to handle fear.
Here are some quick suggestions:
1. Don't push away your fears. Embrace them. Find out what is causing you to fear and stretch yourself so that you won't miss out an opportunity due to fear.
2. Befriend your fears no matter what they are. If this fear is causing you to stand still and not be able to move forward, it is time to deal with it head-on. If you are afraid to take the risk, go ahead and do it anyway. It is OK to stumble and get back up. It is not OK to sit with the fear and do nothing.
3. Ask yourself, "What is the worst thing that can happen?" You might be surprised by the answer you get. Don't let the fear consume you so much that you cannot accept the response you get. . If the worse thing that can happen still frightens you, then you need to do it anyway. Sometimes, it is all in your mind.
4. Take risks. Allow someone like a coach to help you to realize that success comes with failures and you don't know the outcome until you try. Allow the coach to support you in your decisions or give you a different perspective on your fears.
5. Getting someone else's viewpoint may be just what you need to calm your fears.
6. Encourage yourself. Increase your confidence by doing research on whatever makes you fear.
Managing your fears requires how you approach those fears. Self-confidence is a sure way to conquer your fears and to build your confidence, hire a coach or mentor who will help you to feel good about your decisions and work on dreams.
Your Imagination Is The Key To Success
Most people who first begin their personal development journey believe that all they must do is see what they desire and then hold that image for awhile and then everything will change. This is not true if you continually hold your image of what you desire; however refuse to take action nothing in your life will change. Your imagination is the key to your success however it is just part of it.
What do you want to accomplish? Are you looking to become a better parent, do you want to write your own book, develop a website ... etc Whatever you want to achieve all you must do is find someone who accomplished what you want to do before you did and model exactly what they did. Never stop listening to what the successful people before you did or have to say about how to reach success in the area you desire. Listen to the insight on how they utilize their minds about certain things and how they have overcome the challenges they have encountered. Be willing to take their advice and apply it to your own life. Most people pick up a book and their intentions are good they want to achieve success and begin taking action towards what they desire; however for one reason or another they do not listen to what the successful people have done and decide to do it differently.
There are other people who do not believe that imagination is the key to success and do not believe that what you focus on expands. However these are the people that will never experience the life they truly desire. I recommend you get your hands on the book by Napoleon Hill and read it and begin applying the principles. People from all sorts of life have utilized these principles to achieve their success in life.
For example this is a definite chief aim that was written by someone who achieved great things in life (you can find this in the Think and Grow Rich book):
"I Bruce Lee, will be the first highest paid Oriental paid superstar in the United States. In turn I will give the most exciting performances and render the best of quality in the capacity of an actor. Starting in 1970 I will achieve world fame and then from then onward till the end of 1980 I will have in my possession $10,000,000. I will the live the way I please and achieve inner harmony and happiness."
Bruce Lee Jan 1969 (Secret)
Anyone who has achieved any type of success in life understand that your imagination is the key to success. It has worked for many people and will continue to work for everyone else who is willing to put forth the effort and learn how to control their thoughts.
10 powerful Strategies To Attract Success
step 1: Take this tip for answering the phone and take it into your e-mail dialog. It's a great simple way to get more results from all of your efforts.
Step 2: When you trust the outcome is perfect, you defy all of the judgmental mindset that typically prevents you from achievement. Try it. This is a discipline and not everyone can master it. When you do get very clear on the outcome being right -- regardless of how it may feel or seem -- others will be more attracted to your light. Everyone wants someone who is calm and clear in a storm.
Step 3: Expect the exceptional. What if you answered every call as though it were going to be news that you won the lottery? Except something good to happen. Tell people all day "I just know something amazing is going to happen today." Be firm on knowing something good will happen. It really changes your chemistry and uplifts everyone around you.
Step 4: Imagining something good is different from expecting something good. Actively picture a client calling you with great news. Actively picture yourself selling something you want to sell. Actively imagine, tap those visualization muscles you may have let lax, and get clear on a picture of something amazing showing up. If what you want is to make a sale, picture a sale going through. If what you want is to attract new clients, picture someone saying to you "you have exactly what I have been looking for!"
Step 5: Get clear on where you want to be a year from now. Write a letter to yourself in the present tense. "Dear self, it is X date in the year 2009 and I cannot believe how much I love my career, my home, my friends, my family." If you don't know where you are going, how can you communicate that to anyone else? The Law of Attraction is about focusing where you want, consciously, to ease the path and attract everything you want into your life.
Step 6: Let it go. Have some fun where you are right now. This is critical. Letting go is a critical step. This is a key component of intentionally causing the Law of Attraction to consciously bring practical results into your life.
Step 7: Get wildly happy about the small things. You know the phrase don't sweat the small stuff? I say get crazy happy about the small good stuff that shows up. You find a nickel on the ground. You are asking for more money and then you find a nickel. Most people go "ok great that's not 1 million so blah blah blah." What if you go "OH MY GOSH I FOUND A NICKEL!" And if you have kids in your life, they really get into this. They'll start bringing you pennies, nickels, even dollar bills. Kids love enthusiasm. So does everyone.
A call from a potential future client who found you somewhere and heard about you but is not ready yet to buy everything you want to sell? Get happy. Seriously celebrate. I cannot stress this point enough. When small things don't make you happy, there is this kind of pattern where the big things get blocked. So get crazy wild in enthusiasm about the small stuff. Special note: If no one knows what you are doing, you may want to temper your decimal level of enthusiasm in the office to avoid comments about your mental health. Or show them this article and get into it with your whole team. This step is a major key in putting the Law of Attraction into Action.
Step 8: Appreciate beauty in everyone. Instead we judge. We criticize, we think about how people are not like ourselves or are not as good as someone else. Stop all that and see what is good in people. This is going to be telepathically communicated to everyone you meet. When you are in awe and wonder, people get that. And they like it. Since your success will most likely occur when you are in relationship with people like buyers, sellers, clients, friends, business contacts, office mates, then it only makes sense to tune up the relationships to a higher level. One way to do that is to be in awe of every person you meet. Try it!
Step 9: What are you resisting? What are you holding back? What don't you want? Do you want clients but you don't want lots of clients? Do you want money but you don't want lots of money? Do you want to lose weight but you don't want to lose all of your weight? Look at things differently. Picture what you do want and want it with all of your being. Let go of anything that is not about seeing yourself as an amazing being of light.
Step 10: Choose to experience success. It is that simple.

Nobody is going to come along and hand you what you desire on a gold-lined platter of ease.
