Change - Why you must get used to it.    

  

You must get used to change. Change is defeating and even devastating to those who cannot adapt. Change can overwhelm. One of the most important skills to master in an ever faster changing world is the ability to accept change and to adapt to it.  

  

And the world is changing. Look at just the last ten years for examples of how much has changed:

What will the world be like in 2020? We can only guess. We cannot know. We can only know this: it will be different. There will be more change.  

  

Whether you are trying to protect your health, become successful in any endeavor or business, or build and save your wealth - you must accept the inevitable changes that will come, including the ups and the downs, and you must learn to keep going forward anyway. Learn to master change or it will master you. 

  

Wishing you success and prosperity,

Featured Classic Book Review by Daniel R. Murphy 

    

Title and Author :     

The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schwartz, Ph.D.    

  

 Synopsis of Content :    

 

Schwartz illustrates for us how to use self talk to our advantage and how to defeat those kinds of negative thought that drag us down. He uses a Mr. Triumph and a Mr. Defeat to illustrate this.  

 

  

In Thinking Big the reader learns how to squelch the voices, both internal and external, that tell us we cannot succeed and how to exploit our ability to use our inner voice to give us more confidence.  

 

  

Thinking Big means thinking about what we can do and believing in oneself as a self discipline. This 1959 classic is as true and useful today as it was a half century ago. It is further support for the age old concept that when you truly believe you can do it then you can do it, and the how to do it follows. In this book Schwartz gives some good ideas on how to make that your reality.  

 

  

Readability/Writing Quality :      

This is written in the dense text popular in the 1940s and 1950s. The book may be slow going for modern readers more accustomed to the leaner and better organized books of today. If you can wade through this however it is worth it.  

 

  

Notes on Author :    

 

The late Dr. David J. Schwartz, Ph.D. was a Georgia State University professor and President of Creative Educational Services, Inc. He was a leading authority on American motivation and leadership. Long before today's self improvement gurus were teaching self talk Schwartz was teaching people to tell themselves that they are better than they think they are and they will succeed!

Three Great Ideas You Can Use :    

 

1. Think progress and believe in progress and you will find progress and success.  

 

2. What you think about your own ability and potential will have great influence on what you do ultimately achieve.  

 

3. Salvage lessons learned from each setback and move forward always.

Guest Book Review 

   

Breaking Through Limitations    

Book Review By Paula Price  

  

I had the privilege a couple of years ago to meet John Kanary (Life Success Coach & Author of "Breaking Through Limitations") through the company I was working for at the time. I was an executive assistant to the head cheese, and once a year we would bring in a big time guest speaker to spend a day or two with our office. John Kanary had been a guest of ours over the years, however this was a first for me and what an honor. 

  

While he was with us, it was my job to also assist Mr. Kanary with anything he may need, so I had the opportunity to interact and speak with him quite a bit. At the end of one of his sessions I took the opportunity to make a comment to him. I said "you know John, it's very interesting how a lot of what you have said this morning are principles echoed from the Bible". And he smiled and nodded! I think it's interesting how people pay leaders in the industry like him thousands to come speak to their people to give them lessons on mind sets etc. (which is great) when it has been sitting around in a book for years! It's not just some history book....it's the book of life! Life's manual! 

  

Anyway, after an amazing couple of days listening to this man of such great motivation and challenging sessions, he kissed my hand and thanked me with this book, and wrote in the front "Paula, Thank You. Love & Light, John Kanary" 

  

I had never heard of this man until this encounter. Now impacted by his truths & wisdom, here I am a couple of years later picking up this book he gave me for the first time because I'm now an entrepreneur and this stuff is being challenged in me. Thank goodness I already have the word in me...but stuff like this is always a great refresher, and a great training tool to share with my own team. 

  

It's never easy to create, develop and take action on a new and specific way of thinking for your business, or even life for that matter, in the beginning. But Emerson hit on the head when he said "We must persist in the task and one day it will become easier, not because the task itself has become easier, but because we have learned to master the task". This is Self Mastery. 

  

"So many people are living dull and shallow lives because they are prisoners to their self imposed limitations". Why is it when people look in the mirror they see the few things wrong with themselves, and not everything that is right and has potential of great successes? "Trusting only in what you can see is very good logic and very secure. Most importantly, it is also very boring and lacks of courage!" 

  

Courage: It is not the absence of fear; It is the ability to take action in the face of fear! 

  

"It is a simple dynamic law of life that you must either progress or regress. You can not stand still even if you want to. Growth is optional, but change is not. The question is not "do you change", but rather "how do you want to change?" Do you want to move forward or backward; up or down the mountain? The method is to develop focus which will provide the excitement, inspiration and motivation so that you can look up as you scale the mountain." 

  

"The purpose of life is to live. To become everything that you are capable of becoming How are you using your life? Do dreams come alive for you? How enriching is your time? Are you in control or is time?" 

  

So..what are you going to do about your life? Simply exist? Is your career/job you're in right now for that very purpose? To help you exist each month by paying YOUR bills? Were you in a position this past week to make a difference in the lives of those in Haiti? If you weren't, don't you think it's time to change that? 

  

See learning from people like John Kanary and his books are great...but until you make that decision to actually put it to action. Until you decide to live your life and not merely exist in it. Until you discover that this isn't all about you and that other people are waiting and relying on your success so that you can help them with theirs. Until you realize this, you will always remain the same, right where you are. "To explore the oceans you will have to lose sight of the shore. Things don't change; we do! What habits do you need to live the way you want to live?" 

  

"When you decide to make your new belief so strong, so all important, so all inclusive that the mental substance in your difficulty will be dissolved and the problems will begin to drop out of sight....limitations will turn into unlimited potential!" 

  

Great Book! I encourage you to read it and allow it to plant a seed inside of you... BUT make sure you water it!

Be Inspired II by Roger Thomas Lincoln 

    

His parents divorced when he was 12 and he felt a great pain at the loss. He wrote a disturbing poem and his father sent him to a psychiatrist. His childhood and young adulthood were troubled by his anger and frustration. 

  

At 21 he joined the Holly Sugar Company as manager of advertising. His unorthodox dressing style and independent streak caused him trouble with the more conservative executives of the company. He bucked convention by wearing red socks with brown shoes yet wearing those red socks he became ITT Salesman of the Year, three years in a row.  

  

He went on to help found the American Baseball Association and was president of the New Orleans Buccaneers. He also helped found the World Team Boxing Association.  

  

Ultimately he gained national attention with his own TV show, The Morton Downey, Jr. Show. He then got lung cancer from cigarette smoking and both stopped the habit and went on to promote anti-smoking. Downey died in 2001.
