    Blog #217 – Do these 3 things to enhance your life.

    1. Raise Your Standards

    You will get what your minimum standard is. What you accept is what you will get. You will find a way to meet your musts but not your shoulds

    2. Destroy and Eradicate All Limiting Beliefs

    These beliefs are weights are your ankles. Free yourself from these thoughts that are holding you back and reach your full potential.

    3. Be Thankful For What you Have

    If you have gratitude for what you have you will not take it for granted. You will see the value in it and know how to be resourceful.

    Blog #216 – This is why you lack abundance

    If you always think in scarcity then those things you think of will be scarce. If you always say, “I can’t afford it! It costs too much! I don’t have enough money!”

    You are linking the feeling and emotions of lack to these things.

    “If somebody offers you an amazing opportunity but you are not sure you can do it, say yes – then learn how to do it later!”

    Richard Branson

    You are saying yes to your future self. You are aligning yourself with who you want to become and not who you are now.

    Blog #214 – Would you rather work 40 hrs or 80 hrs a week?

You are motivated by the person you are becoming. You are constantly improving yourself and adding new tricks to your repertoire. You game is raising every year and everyday.

    Blog #210 – What is Social Proof?

    People can be influenced easily by the masses. If someone is unsure of what to do they will often look to see what everyone else is doing and they will do that. This can be good or it can be very bad.

    In the book, Influence by Robert Cialdini, it talks about how after a public suicide is highlighted on the front page of the newspaper then the number suicides will go up. These are the people on the edge and then get validated. This is a drastic example of social proof but I think this could be why school shootings are up.

    We look to those around us for how we should act and what we should do.

    You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

    Jim Rohn

    Blog #208 – How to get more done in less time.

    There are many distractions and traps out there. Everyone is fighting over you attention. They want you to look at their profile, to like their picture, to buy their product, to see their show or for you to give them your attention. Your attention and focus are the most valuable thing you have.

    How good you are at focusing is a predictor at how long its going to take you to finish something. If you know you are easily distracted then do what you can to eliminate distractions. Turn off notifications.

    Start with short bursts of focused attention. Set a goal to focus on something for 5 min and no longer. Use interval focus to make progress. Keep making progress and it will become a lot easier.

    Blog #207 – To get you have to give

    The action of reciprocation is a powerful human instinct.

    If someone gives you something then you feel obliged to return the favor. The funny thing is that the person you give something to doesn’t even have to like you. If you give them something then they will likely return the favor in even greater value.

    People do not like to feel like they are in debt to people.

    A small gift can get big returns.

    Blog #206 – Salespeople start High then go Low

    Ask for more than what you want.

    It is human nature to want to negotiate and make deals. The price given is never the final price. There is always room to barter and negotiate.

    If you are a salesman then start with you most expensive items first. The customer will see these enormous price tags and be blown away. Then show them what they really want. When they see this more average price it will feel like a whole lot less than just going with the average price first.

    Blog #205 – Emphasize the contrast to influence people

    This strategy is to be used for ethical purposes only.

    When trying to influence people there are two things you must accentuate.

    1. The pain of their current situation. This extreme amount of pain will continue or get worse if they stay on their current trajectory.
    2. The pleasure of their dream situation. This is the immense amount of pleasure that will flood their body when they take the influenced action.

    This is how sales people and marketing people take advantage of the unsuspecting consumer.

    Blog #204 – The Struggle is Guaranteed

    No matter what life is going to have ups and downs. There will be pains and pleasures.

    All of the pain is a given.

    The success and pleasures are up to you. These feelings are not given. You have to go out and take these. You have to make these happen. This is what it means to live a life with no regrets. Even if things do not work out you want to be able to say you gave it all you got. You went after your dreams. You didn’t make excuses.

    You might as well fail doing something you love.
