How to - improvement techniques for wealth and success

I’ve just spent three days on T Harv Eker’s Millionaire Mind Intensive. It was the first time he’s run the course in the UK and there were over 2000 people there.

I have to say I was pretty impressed. Harv teaches a money management system which anyone, even kids can use. It’s also good for people who don’t have much money, in fact, he says that the reason they don’t have money is because they don’t manage what they do have.

As part of the course you also get detailed instructions to follow on a daily basis - very practical steps to help you move forward both with setting up your business/passive income and with reprogramming your mind for wealth.

So it was a real mixture of practical and motivational stuff. And easy enough to do in a few minutes a day.

I’ll be recording my progress. So come back if you want to hear how I’m getting on!

Goal Setting For Success Part 2

The second step in our plan to set goals which are successful is:

Step #2 Write Those Goals Down . . .But Don’t Forget About Them

Everyone says it - if you write your goals down, you have a muc greater chance of achieving them. they say this as if it is a magic formula which will make all your dreams a reality, but as you have probably experienced, just writing your goals down won’t create miracles. In fact, if you are anything like me, you’ve probably done exactly as you’ve been told, written your goals according to whatever method is recommended and then promptly forgotten all about them .

Goal Setting for Success Part 1

Goal setting for success in any area of your life can be difficult. Ther is so much that seems to get in the way of achieving the most important goals. It can be anything from other people’s attitudes, failures you’ve experienced in the past which make you reluctant to try again, and all sort of fears about your ability. Sometimes these obstacles get to be too much and you give up on every achieving your dreams.

So how can you overcome the obstacles which are standing between you and your gratest dreams?

It can be difficult, but here are a few steps which will help you move towards your goals more quickly and ultimately achieve success.

Step #1 Choose What You Want

How often have you had parents, teachers or friends tell you what they think is right for you? It happens all the time. The thing is, that no-one else can really make the decision for you. So if other people are trying to push you into a particular career, walk away. You can consider what they have said, some of the advise but be relevant and helpful. But ultimately you must follow your own heart.

Your Plans for the Year

We’re now three weeks into the new year. How is it working out for you so far? ARe your plans for the year taking shape? It’s been a slow start for me. . . We spent about 3 weeks before Christmas redecorating the kitchen, with the result that not much else got done:)

Then it was January and time to do the accounts, my least favourite activity! Having finally got all the paperwork out of the way, I’ve come down with a really bad cold, which has made me feel pretty rough for a week so far and isn’t over yet.

Still . . I have made a start on my plans for the year, with my first piece of software finished and the second in production.

But it does just show that life can be unpredictable, you have to be flexible and rest when you need to.

Dragged myself out of bed to take a friend to the cinema for his birthday on Wednesday. We watched Slumdog Millionaire – brilliant. If you are feeling low with the recession, the weather, the January blues etc, go and see it – it will cheer you up.

Ways to Keep Your Job

Over the next few days we’ll take a look at a few steps you can take to keep your job, while everyone around you is losing theirs.

Okay, the first way to keep your job is to increase your productivity. It’s easy to become frozen into a state of inaction in a crisis situation, but that isn’t the best way to deal with the current economy. While you could think there is no point in working hard, after all, you’ll probably lose your job anyway - so why bother, it’s much better to have a positive approach.

If you show some initiative and make a point of doing your best, it won’t go unnoticed.

If the boss does have to let some people go, he’ll be reluctant to get rid of his best workers - so become one of them.

And in the worst case scenario, whre the company does go bankrupt and no jobs are saved, you’ll at least get a great reference and that will go a long way to getting you hired again.

How to Get Your Career Back on Track

As we move into the New Year, it doesn’t look as if the economy is going to improve any time soon. There are signs of more businesses going to the wall adn serious job losses are being predicted everywhere.

So what can you do if you want to hold on to your job? It might feel as if the situation is hopeless, but there are a number of things you can do to help you either keep your present job or if you lose it, put yourself in a stronger position to get a new job.

Today let’s look at continuing education.

For some time now, continuing professional education has been a buzz word or is that a buzz phrase? The reason for this is that we are experiencing change at an unprecedented rate. For previous generations, it would take centuries and then decades for major change to come about. But for us, change is happening at a much faster rate than ever before.

Think about it, mobile phones or cell phones were invented soem time ago and by the 70s were still huge, impractical objects. Mobiles or cell phones as we know them didn’t become commonly used until the early 90s. but look how much they have developed - and how quickly since then.

In the last few years, we’ve been able to take photographs, surf the internet and read email on our hand held phones.

And communications isn’t the only industry which is experiencing such rapid change - but all of us communicate with others in our jobs and so we need to keep up.

If you want to stay in work, or be able to get a new job quickly, one of the best things you can do is keep up to date with what is going on in your own industry and keep on top of the technology used in your job.

Wise employers realize that it’s a bad idea to cut training programs when times are tough and if you are fortunate to have such a boss, find out which training course or funds you are entitled to and take advantage of them.

If you can’t get training at work, make a point of using some of your spare time to keep up to date, even if it’s just learning how to use the latest version of Word.

Employees are expected to engage in continuing education these days and if you want to hold on to your job, keeping your skills up to date will help you do so. And it will also help you get a new job if you lose your present one in the recession.
