First your mind needs a track to run on to create your success.

A couple weeks ago I brought this resource to your attention, so if you didn’t get it, go take another look. It’s the new Science of Getting Rich Program from Bob Proctor, who has built a 40 year career teaching this, and his good friends and fellow experts from “The Secret”, Jack Canfield and Michael Beckwith.

This program is the first place I would recommend you look for personal growth and wealth building from the inside out.

For some of you, happiness and having a goal achieving process is your key to being motivated. Without exception, this is the most realistic and effective way I’ve seen to actually multiply your happiness…

But after you’ve got the millionaire mindset and you’re visualizing what will make you happy, you need
a product that’s ready to sell so you can start generating income immediately.

Just think, the Self Improvement industry is a multi-BILLION dollar a year industry, and it’s growing faster every day.. and now YOU can have a piece of the action!

The next step is to have a persuasive presence to create relationships with clients, JV partners, etc. You need to have a powerful persuasive story to tell the world.

http://budurl.com/a8e2

Then you need free access to media outlets who are looking for someone just like you, so you have someone to tell your story to that will generate media buzz for your business.

http://budurl.com/n8ey

And then you go back and start at the top and go more in depth on your learning in all these areas. The process never ends, the only thing that changes is your ability to get more and more out of these tools as your knowledge expands to use them on a deeper level.

How do you get to the point of saying yes to yourself or having someone else say yes to you?

You’ve been doing it naturally, without any conscious thought, since you were a toddler
convincing another child to give you the toy he or she was playing with.

How do you think you got a date each time you’ve wanted to go out with someone new?

How did you convince your last employer they should hire you for the job instead of another, equally qualified person?

How do you get your kids to do what you want them to do? Or do you?

Remember that time you really wanted to eat at your favorite restaurant, and everyone else in your group had different ideas? You convinced them by talking about how great it was, the atmosphere and the particular dishes
you thought they would enjoy, didn’t you?

The way you talked to them was based on the rapport you had with each individual and the group. You took their personal preferences into consideration and gave them the benefits of your restaurant based on their needs and desires. You thought you were being nice, and you were right.

You know how to persuade people to see your point of view and how it benefits them, don’t you? You got
them to say yes. That’s called sales.

Don’t be afraid of the word sales. The truth is you’re already much better at sales than you give yourself credit for. In fact, you spend quite a bit of your time every day in sales. Just look at the sales talents you just discovered. It’s how you get a date, a job, a spouse, a client. It’s the basis of every relationship you have because sales is nothing
more than good communication skills used for a specific purpose.

Does that shock you? I can hear you reading this and saying to yourself, “She isn’t talking to me, I don’t like sales, and I would never trick people like that.”

There are three myths about sales I’d like to dispel:

1. Most people don’t consider themselves to be in sales if they aren’t employed as a salesperson.

2. Sales is hard edged, manipulative, unpleasant, and confrontational with a winner and a loser.

3. If you are nice and considerate to people, it will be taken as weakness.

Those statements couldn’t possibly be true if you look at the way you use persuasive communication skills, otherwise known as sales, in your day-to-day life. Sales is persuading people to go along with what you want
because it’s to their benefit as in the case of your children or showing someone how you have the best solution to her problem in business. Just like you did with your restaurant choice.

So why are you making it so hard on yourself?
There shouldn’t be any difference in those conversations and the conversation you have with a potential client.

I want you to read this sentence very carefully…

The only difference is in your head, because you look at it differently when you’re asking someone for money!

Think about it for a minute. You would have no anxiety about persuading someone to give you the opportunity to help them if you were going to do it for free, would you?

So why do you let your unconscious beliefs about this word “sales” sabotage your effectiveness when it comes to having the same conversation about helping your client, but now you are asking to be paid?

You’re still offering the same service as you were when it was free, right? But it doesn’t feel like selling when you’re doing it for free, does it?

Weird head games you’re playing with yourself that are preventing you from being relaxed, happy, successful and wealthier than you are now!

Most likely this realization isn’t all it’s going to take to get you on track with being comfortable having the money conversation and asking for the sale. So if you want to move forward quickly, let me help you.

Until next week, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Just comment on this here.

Can you build wealth and success through daily spiritual practice? That’s the topic of today’s article. No it’s not just sitting and saying OM for half an hour, but setting a foundation for your life that shifts your energy and focus to what you really want to create. That was also the topic of my conversation with NLP co-developer, Richard Bandler , on yesterday’s Success Blueprint Radio show. Richard gave you several concrete things you can do right now to get the life you want. And a third resource for you on this topic is the series of videos you can grab as a gift from Natalie at Mind Movies . I absolutely love her videos and they don’t cost you a thing. Take a look for yourself and find out why she’s gotten over 1450 inspiring and positive comments left on her blog! http://budurl.com/qd42 Yes, that’s me in the photo, getting ready to break a board as part of one of my early Tae Kwon Do tests. Find out more in the article posted right below this. And yes, before I became a redhead a couple years ago I was a blonde. Looks like American Idol is living up to the buzz of this being the most talented season ever from what I’ve seen so far. Have you picked out your early favorites? Comment here and tell me what you think. Last week when talking about Idol I said that there’s just something so inspiring about watching people go for their dreams! You have an opportunity to watch people either grow and change and possibly become a star. Well, that certainly applies to the Olympics this week. I’ve been DVR’ing every day and find I can go through the three and a half hours in about an hour and see everything I want to see. And boy is there some great moments to see! Last night was a record number of medals in one day for the US team. It reminded me of the old line from “Wide World of Sports” if you’re old enough to remember that. They used to say “…the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat”. Watching athletes crash and burn and then get up and keep going, competing through the pain is inspiring. Image via Wikipedia There are also lessons to be learned about the psychology of a real winner in business and in life by listening to their interviews afterward. So watch and let me know who you’re most inspired by and why by commenting here.Life happens, be ready for it. Set your goals high enough that they require you to stretch your comfort zone and you’ll be amazed what you can achieve.

How would you like to become a Self-Improvement Millionaire?

Just think, the Self Improvement industry is a multi- BILLION dollar a year industry, and it’s growing faster every day.. and now YOU can have a piece of the action!

Down through the ages, great thinkers, inventors, artists, statesman and philosophers have credited their spiritual connections for their successes.

If this seems like a strange place to begin, you may be wondering what this has to do with building wealth and success.

Daily spiritual practice is the foundation everything else builds upon to create an abundant life of wealth and success.

Let’s be real. If it didn’t take any effort or any changes from what you’re doing now, you’d already be incredibly wealthy and wildly successful. If you already are, I applaud you for reading this article and continuing to grow.

If you don’t have everything you want, you have to ask yourself …“How much effort is the life of my dreams worth to me?”

Another good question to ask yourself is, “Am I willing to do something different in my life to get a better result?”

I can tell you from personal experience that in the years I’ve been following a daily spiritual practice, I’ve seen a tremendous increase in energy, focus, creativity and abundance. Yes, there are many days I don’t feel like getting up early.

But I’ve been doing it long enough that I know the difference in the days I do and the days I don’t, and it’s just not worth the extra time in bed to sacrifice the benefits of the calmness, peace and level of focus it brings.

You can start with something as simple as being grateful for the opportunity of another day. Even before you open your eyes you can say to yourself silently or out loud, “Thank you for this day filled with love, opportunity and abundance.”

Some people find yoga and other types of more meditative exercise to be just the thing to follow their spiritual reading. When I began doing Tae Kwon Do at the age of 40 while living in Mexico, I found doing the forms, very meditative.

Any type of daily spiritual practice will keep you uplifted while you achieve the level of wealth and success you desire. It will also keep you grounded in the truth of who you are.

Every major religion has a book full of great spiritual reading. You could read from different texts and get a broad view of many different beliefs. You may be surprised to find how much common ground there is from one text to another.

A book with no affiliation to any particular religion is The Course in Miracles. I’ve been a student of the Course for more than 16 years. At one point it says, “You would never be afraid if you knew who walked beside you.” I love that quote. It reminds us that we’re never alone in our pursuits.

Would you like to be incredibly wealthy, full of energy and purpose, living a life that makes you outrageously happy?

Would it be worth getting up a little earlier or missing the first half hour of the news in the morning?

What would you begin today if you believed you didn’t have to do it by yourself?

If you would like personal mentoring, send me an email detailing what you would like help with.  As your mentor I hold a bigger vision for you than you hold for yourself.  When you have faith and a team that believes in you, it gives you courage.  When you don’t have to do it all yourself, all things are possible for you.  Commit today to go for your dream 100%.

I received this great news of what your donations, as one of my subscribers, have helped to accomplish. It comes directly from the company I work with on this VitaMeal program, so I’m posting their message to me here for you:

Following the devastating earthquake in Haiti, the Nu Skin family has demonstrated its force for good culture with an outpouring of support for those affected by the tragedy. On behalf of Nu Skin Enterprises, we want to thank our distributors and employees for their generous donations of VitaMeal and monetary contributions to the Nu Skin Force for Good Foundation. To date, the company and its distributors are donating more than $1 million in cash and product to the Haiti relief efforts.

The Nourish the Children Initiative

Our charity partner, Feed the Children (FTC) has been working through their network to get VitaMeal to those in need as quickly as possible. In fact, the more than 150,000 meals that were at the FTC medical clinic were pulled from the damaged building and have already been distributed to those in need. Another 180,000 meals will arrive in Haiti this week and will be distributed from six locations to earthquake victims. Over 200,000 additional meals are being delivered each week to FTC for delivery to projects in Haiti where they are feeding about 15,000 people every day. We are pleased that Nu Skin’s Greater China region, an area that has also suffered from the devastation of an earthquake, has also earmarked all of its January VitaMeal purchases, along with an additional corporate donation of product, to the relief efforts.

Because of your generous donations we expect to provide more than 1.5 million meals for Haiti by the end of February. And we will continue to send monthly shipments of VitaMeal to this earthquake ravaged country on an ongoing basis. VitaMeal was in Haiti before the earthquake and VitaMeal will be there for the long term.

For more information on the Nourish the Children initiative or to purchase and donate a bag of VitaMeal (30 meals; US$22) please visit http://budurl.com/VitaMeal . We appreciate the generous donations of our distributor force to meet the disaster relief needs in Haiti which are above and beyond our ongoing VitaMeal distribution projects around the world including in China, the Philippines and Malawi.

I am happy to answer any question you have about this program or help you make a donation of 1 bag or 100 bags. It’s up to you. You can also pass this information along to help spread the word. We have a matching program in place that starts with an extra bag for every 5 bag donation and goes from there. So every little bit helps.

Thank you for caring!

And thanks to Steve Pohlit for posting on his blog!  http://manifestmastermindblog.com/2010/02/new-version-we-are-the-world-to-help-haiti/

***FYI: Use this link  http://budurl.com/VitaMeal to donate directly. There isn’t a link on the NTC site that will work for you because you need to fill in a sponsorship number. http://NourishTheChildren.com has information on the complete worldwide program and is not specific to Haiti. You will need to create a customer account and it does not commit you to anything but this one-time donation. If you are interested in donating on a monthly basis, please contact me using the “contact us” form on this site.***

But look for a minute at the upside of what can happen when you acknowledge your fear, take a deep breath and take that next step anyway.

Let’s take 48 year old over night sensation, Susan Boyle for example. Susan is a great case in point for growing into your destiny. We all have catalysts that occur in our lives allowing us a brief door to walk through to something much larger.

The question is, will you recognize the opportunity and will you be brave enough to walk through it. Susan Boyle said yes to herself this time and look where it’s taken her.

On January 21, 2009 she stepped on the stage for her audition on Britain’s Got Talent. I think we all know the rest of that story.

When I blogged about seeing her video on April 16th, it had gone from 9 million views the day before to 13 million. Today with the top 2 version of the video totaling about 120 million views, Susan Boyle’s performance was Youtube’s most watched video of 2009. (Here’s the page to watch the video since they’ve disabled embedding.)

Fast forward a year and on January 19, 2010, Susan Boyle has sold 8,000,000 copies of her debut CD in just 6 weeks and has been #1 on Billboard the entire time. I believe I also heard it made her the biggest selling female artist ever.

Look where that one decision to go for an audition has taken her.

Are you brave enough to grow into your destiny?

What is it going to take for you to create a blueprint for your life?

When will you ask yourself the important questions that will begin the conversation you must have with yourself?

We all have a passion, a life purpose, a reason for being here. When you discover what to that is specifically for you, you will re-connect with your source. Your life will be in alignment and things will flow much more easily.

And your financial situation will flow as well because you are in alignment. Buying into the belief that you can’t make money doing what you love is a huge lie that is costing you your life’s work.

When you are living on purpose, everything fits, it just works. You’ll feel like there’s more time in the day, more energy in your body, more passion in your voice, more love in your life.

Isn’t that what you want? Of course it is, so what is holding you back from going for your dream?

This is just the beginning of the story for Susan Boyle. She’s only one year into this journey of growing into her destiny. Even so, it must be obvious to you that this is a perfect example of what being in alignment looks like. What has happened for her couldn’t happen if she wasn’t following her path.

What would your life look like a year from now if you decide today that you are going to make growing into your destiny your top priority this year?

I’m encouraging you to post your vision for your destiny on my blog and declare yourself publicly because thinking about it or just visualizing it is not enough. You need to declare it to the Universe and put yourself on the line.

A study at Brigham Young University show that the more fully you steps into your goal, the bigger chance you have of achieving it.

Here’s the commitment levels and your chance of achieving it:
That’s a good idea                                                           10%
I’m going to do it                                                             25%
Setting a specific date                                                     40%
Having a specific plan                                                     50%
Telling someone else                                                       60%
Set a specific time to share with someone                  95%

So you pick what you’d like your chances of success to be and act accordingly.

Until next week, I’d love to hear your thoughts.  Just comment on this post on my blog at http://www.LynnPierce.com
