			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We cannot confine ourselves to a single definition of the law of attraction. For some it’s karma while others associate it with the golden rule. The law of attraction is about energy – the energy of our feelings. It works like a magnetic pole, i.e. sending out energy from one end which is received at the opposite end. </p>
<p>What we do to others happens to us also. Whether we are caring, loving or even hurtful, the emotions get back to us through different actions. The law of attraction rewards each and every emotional move. You show love, your reward is love. You show hatred, your reward will be hatred. The law of attraction works like the law of gravity; it holds on to the same path. The same kind of feelings will be triggered back to us in more than one circumstance. Whenever we encounter a circumstance we don’t like, we always have an opportunity to attract something different and better. </p>
<p><strong>The Value of Feelings:</strong><br />
What is important in the law of attraction is to understand what our feelings are. We can always attract better circumstances and live the way we want by having control over our feelings. It is all about owning one’s feelings and allowing them to flow and then releasing them without any high expectations. Having expectations is necessary since we do have certain desires and intentions. No matter who you interact with, you will always experience some kind of reward with the emotions you released during that interaction. This force is natural and is thus called the law of attraction.</p>
<p>Changing a particular circumstance always depends on us. Most of the time these emotions are generated unintentionally and we do not determine the flow of emotions. According to the law of attraction, by releasing these emotions, intentionally or unintentionally, we have already created the situation we are in right now. Habitual reactions can be changed which in turn can affect our future to a great extent. The change will always be positive. Whatever the cause of emotions, try and acknowledge them. Don’t run away from it. They are real and must be accepted. It requires enormous amounts of persistence, courage, perseverance and determination to make an attempt to shift our feelings.  </p>
<p>Holding back your emotions and finding the right time to execute them will help you fight negative emotions. Challenge your negative emotions. Try to analyze and question every decision you take. The law of attraction requires that we analyze circumstances very carefully before being drawn to them. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is a misnomer to believe that it is possible to do time management. Time is finite and available in equal measure to everyone in this world. Still, with the same amount of time at our disposal, someone becomes Bill Gates and another person rots away in penury. Whereas it is true that there are many other factors and resources that result in such diverse outcomes, the main aspect to be considered is that one person dared to think differently and managed his activities in the limited available time and another person could not adjust his activities fruitfully.</p>
<p><strong>Time Management Is Activity Management</strong><br />
The limited amount of time in a day cannot be managed differently by different people. It is only the amount and types of activities that you do, which will make the difference to the outcome. The management of your activities is more important. So, how do we manage our activities?</p>
<p><strong>Planning</strong><br />
The core of any successful activity is the initial planning of the same without which you are bound to stray in wilderness. Without planning, you will just be flipping from one activity to another without accomplishing any tangible results. Planning of activities in relation to time management is very important. The first step in planning your activities for a day is to set a particular goal or various goals for the day. Unless you are clear in your mind as to what you wish to achieve, you will never get there and your activities will be haphazard without any preconceived direction. This will obviously lead to regrets at a later stage when you will feel that you should have conducted yourself in a different way but by that time, the damage would already have been done. It has, therefore, essential to decide what you want to achieve and in how much time.</p>
<p><strong>Listing Of Various Activity Stages And Prioritizing Them</strong><br />
Once you have defined your goals, the next step is to list the various activity stages that will lead you towards the fulfillment of these goals. Having done that, you should go through the steps once again and put them in proper sequence in order of the priorities. You would also need to estimate the time that each step might take so that you can get a realistic view of the probability of achieving your goals. </p>
<p><strong>Saying No To Interruptions </strong><br />
It is very important to visualize the possible interruptions that you might face while performing the various activities as per your plan. You need to be fully prepared to deal with such hindrances and to be able to tactfully avoid interruptions such as unnecessary telephone calls or unwanted visitors. </p>
<p><strong>Put Your Plan In Black And White</strong><br />
Documenting your plan and keeping it in front of you will be very helpful as you can avoid missing out any essential activity or for gauging the progress of your work in relation to the overall target. </p>
<p>If you can master the art of activity management, you will find that effective time management will follow automatically.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Looking at how you &#039;listen&#039; for money gives insight into what you believe. If you believe it, then you are not out of integrity and you CAN raise your standards, aspirations and level of success!</p>
<p>One of the things that stops people from having money is how they listen to themselves about whether or not they deserve to have money. People have thoughts that they do or do not deserve money&#8211; and even those who deserve it tend to have a limit on how much they really deserve. </p>
<p>People listen, not from abundance, but from scarcity. And they don&#039;t even know they&#039;re doing that.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All <a href="http://www.followvicslead.com">home businesses</a> require some kind of consistent work. Staying at your home can get you in a comfort zone of not putting in the necessary work to be successful. Most successful home business owners will tell you that motivation and consistency is the key to success. Motivation plays a major roll into how much work you put in, how much money you want to make and ours you want to work in a day. </p>
<p>Set aside at least 1 hour to do something <a href="http://www.zigonlinenow.com">motivational</a> rather it be listening to and audio, video or writing something down that you love to do. Set your goals high and never stop until you reach them. You can buy any kind of notebook or journal to keep your goals in from places like Walmart and other places that sell school supplies. Although motivation requires a will to succeed you also need to have consistency. </p>
<p>It doesnt matter how much motivation you have today, you will need to have that same motivation for the rest of the year or until you have reached your goals. Tell yourself that today I will have a positive attitude untill I reach my goals in my home business. </p>
<p>Having consistency is what sets you apart from everyone else in a business or anything that you do in life. Think about why people fail when they go on diets? They dont have the motivation to stop eating the wrong foods or they lack the consistency of staying on the diet. If you want to build a business you will have to have motivation every day. With that, you will need to stay consistent. </p>
<p>When you get your journal or notebook, tare out a piece of paper and write how you will be motivated and consistent for the rest of your home business existence. Sign and date this paper and put it somewhere that you will see and read every day. Places like your bedroom door, the front door of your house, or even on the refrigerator door. Just make sure that you look at it every day. </p>
<p>The keys to success are simple to read. Take action and just do what you set out to do. Make your home business one of the greatest financial decisions that you ever made. Motivation and consistency are the keys to success. A person that fails to plan, plans to fail. </p>
<p>The key to home business success is simple. All you have to do is have a positive attitude and everything will come together.</p>

You cannot do everything,<br />

<p>You choose your thoughts and actions.<br />

You have to make it happen. </p>
<p>There is something you can do to change your situation.<br />
The people that really succeed in the world<br />
are the people who look for the circumstances they want,<br />

<p>Your life will always be to a large extent what you make of it. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Three Elements You Need To Be Successful in Your  Entrepreneurial Business<br />
by John Hayes </p>
<p>(Excerpted from the Jim Rohn Weekend Event &#8211; Excelling in the New Millennium) </p>
<p>There are many keys to running a successful business, but here are three typical areas I see that small business owners and salespeople often ignore.</p>
<p>1) Have a system for everything. If you do not have a system for your business, you have chaos. What we often do in our businesses is we go out and we do the same things over and over and over again, rather than writing it down and putting it in a book. Saying to your staff &#034;Here&#039;s how you do this, you can do this better than I can.&#034; Systematize everything.</p>
<p>2) You have to get out of whatever business you think that you  are in (most people think that they are in the restaurant  business or the sales business, etc.) and get into the  &#034;capturing and keeping a customer&#034;  business. Once you get out of the car or MLM business and start to zoom in on what customers you want to capture, who&#039;s right for your business and what you need to do to keep them then you have identified  a major key to running a profitable business.</p>
<p>3) Make sure you have the right customer. Not every customer is created equally. Find the customers who best fit what you are doing. Sometimes you might need to fire some customers. Sounds harsh, but for the survival of your enterprise you have to know where to focus your resources so that you can get the maximum return on your time and money.</p>
<p>Begin working on these 3 key areas: Have a system for everything, adopt the &#034;capturing and keeping a customer&#034; mindset and finding the right customers and you will be well on your way to having the<br />
successful business you desire.</p>

<p><strong>&#034;You&#039;ve got to be before you can do and do before you can have.&#034;</strong> &#8212; Zig Ziglar </p>
<p>Read the quote above again&#8230; </p>
<p>&#034;You&#039;ve got to be before you can do and do before you can have.&#034; </p>
<p>In short, you have to be a person of character and do the right things, and then you can have the things you really want. </p>
<p>To make the &#034;be, do, have&#034; theory valid, believable, and usable on your part, look at some examples in your own life: </p>
<p>1. Take a sheet of paper and draw two vertical lines to make three columns. </p>
<p>2. At the top of the left-hand column, write &#034;Be&#034;; in the middle column, write &#034;Do&#034;; and over the last column, write &#034;Have.&#034; </p>
<p>3. In the right-hand column, list all the things that you really want in life, whether it&#039;s an education, good family relationships, a beautiful new home, a fancy luxury car, a trip around the world, better health—you name it. </p>
<p>4. Work your way down the center column of the page, identifying the things that you have to do in order to have the things listed in the right-hand column. </p>
<p>If you want a successful marriage, as an example, you must be willing to share your innermost thoughts and concerns with your mate. You must carry more than your share of the workload, encourage your mate when he or she is down, and defend your mate against criticism. You need to remember special occasions (which go beyond Christmas, birthdays, Valentine&#039;s Day, and anniversaries). Be particularly helpful when your mate is having a &#034;down day,&#034; is not feeling well, or has had a tough time on the job. Apply the philosophy that &#034;you can have everything that you want out of this marriage if you will just help your mate get what he or she wants.&#034; Everybody&#039;s list varies, because each of us has his or her own needs, beliefs, and interests. However, the formula remains the same. </p>
<p>5. Go to the left-hand column and identify what you have to be in order to do so that you can have. As a brief, simple example, and continuing with your desire for a successful marriage, look at the &#034;be&#034; part of the formula and think your way through this process. Some of the things that you must be are faithful, attentive, loving, caring, helpful, empathetic, encouraging, persistent, committed, kind, thoughtful, considerate, and responsible. Not having all these qualities at this moment is okay, because they&#039;re all skills, and skills can be developed. </p>
<p>Regardless of what you want to have—whether it&#039;s a better education, more sales, a beautiful home, closer relationships with your children, or a handicap of 10 on the golf course—you can use this basic formula. Just look at what you have to do in order to accomplish that objective, and then examine yourself and determine what kind of person you have to be in order to do so that you can have. </p>
