Interesting Motivating funda

Motivations

Funda#1
The single most important thing that effects our lives is who we spend time with. Who we spend time with is who we become. Basically we in our lives become one of two types of people. A person who creates or a person who destroys. It's easier to destroy than it is to create. It's easier to tear down than it is to build up. What takes years to build can be burned down in minutes. But the joy one can have in destroying something is temporary, because you know you are not a creator, you're not adding value, and your life reflects it. Seek those people who are living life at the highest level. And your life will change. If you want to play tennis, you don't play with someone worse than you are. You find someone better and you have to rise just to be in their presence. One last thing. Remember that proximity is power. If you want to be a dancer and you are living in Iowa, it's going to be hard to be the best. Take action and surround yourself with people who are playing at the level you want to play. Often talented people never achieve their goals, because they put themselves in an environment where their skills can't be maximized. Even a great sprinter can't succeed if he races in mud. Go where the action is for what it is you are focusing on. If it's farming, go to a farming town, if it's media, go to a media location. Go where it's happening and the resources you need will appear. ------- Anthony Robins


Funda#2 :-Completion
There are certain people who avoid completion. Completion offers you the chance to fail. The two primary fears all human beings have is the fear that we are not enough, and therefore number two fear pops up, that we will not be loved.Every type of avoidance behavior is merely a way, even if it feels negative, to prevent ourselves from the pain of feeling insignificant and unloved.The secret is to turn this pain on itself, turn fear on itself. We all do whatever we can do avoid pain so what you've got to do is not only make a list, but get emotionally associated with what it's going to cost you if you don't change this pattern now.In addition to getting that leverage to make change a must, and by the way that is the secret, changing has to become a must not just a should If it's a must you'll find a way, if it's a should, you'll keep talking about it. But secondly, you need to set yourself up for some small wins. Complete a chapter of the book, or a paragraph, or a page. Lose five pounds, instead of the fifty, and see that as the completion, and you'll build the muscle and the belief in yourself that will create the behavior to change yourself long term.------- Anthony Robins


Funda#3:-Decisions
All change happens with a real decision, it happens in a moment. Some people make small changes some people make big decisions.It's totally determined by can you make the tough decisions or not. In my own life most of the success I've had has come from making small decisions regularly that were successful. But the greatest changes honestly was when I was faced with the most difficult decisions, decisions that could have cost me everything financially or emotionally. When you are willing to make those tough decisions, you have a life you are in control of, and the changes you make have no limit. Remember it's in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.
------- Anthony Robins


Funda#4:-Some things to Learn
I've learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I've learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I've learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you'll miss them when they're gone from your life. I've learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life." I've learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I've learned that you shouldn't go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back. I've learned that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But if you focus on your family, your friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you. I've learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I've learned that even when I have pains, I don't have to be one. I've learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love that human touch -- holding hands, a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I've learned that I still have a lot to learn. People will forget what you said; people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.


Funda#5:-The 90 - 10 Principle
"Distance between success and failure can only be measured by one'sdesire.."Discover the 90/10 Secret: It will change your life The 90/10 secret is incredible! Very few know and apply this secret. The result? Millions of people are suffering undeserved stress, trials,problems, and heartache. They never seem to be a success in life.Bad days follow bad days. Terrible things seem to be constantlyhappening.Theirs is constant stress, lack of joy, and broken relationships.Worry consumes time, anger breaks friendships, and life seems dreary and is not enjoyed to the fullest.. Friends are lost. Life is a bore andoften seems cruel.Does this describe you? If so, do not be discouraged. You can be different! Understand and apply the 90/10 secret. It will change your life!What is this secret?10% of life is made up of what happens to you.90% of life is decided by how you react.What does this mean? We really have no control over 10% of what happens to us. We cannot stop the car from breaking down. The plane may be late arriving, which throws our whole schedule off. A drivermay cut us off in traffic. We have no control over this 10%. The other 90% is different. You determine the other 90%! How? By your reaction. You cannot control a red light, but you can control your reaction. Don't let people fool you; YOU can control how you react!--------- Anthony Robins

Funda#6:-Do it yourself
" LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE OF IT " You have the power to succeed. The day you take complete responsibility for yourself, the day you stop making any excuses, that's the day you start moving to your goal. Nobody is going to do it for you. Only you can make it happen. You're the only one that has to live your life. Success on any major scale requires you to accept responsibility. Begin to choose the thoughts and actions that will lead you to success. Nothing will happen by itself. It will all come your way once you understand that you have to make it come your way. Next year can be so much better if you begin to act upon your dreams. The power to fulfill them all is within you.

Funda#7:-Just Do it
Enjoy having it done One of the biggest burdens you can create for yourself is to put off something that needs to be done. When there's a task that you've put off until later, it hangs over everything you do. It drags you down and brings unnecessary stress.Is there something you've been putting off, something you could do right now, something that needs to be done? Why wait any longer? Go ahead and free yourself from its burden. Go ahead and get it done. It will free your energy. It will free your time. It will free your mind and your spirit. You're going to have to do it eventually, so get it done as soon as possible and avoid letting it drag you down any longer. Don't let procrastination drain the life out of you. Get it done now and start enjoying the fruits of your labor. You'll feel great to have it done.
-- Ralph Marston

Funda#8:-Buried or Lifted
If you find yourself at the bottom of a deep hole in the ground, and somebody starts shoveling dirt into the hole, what are you going to do?Are you going to give up and resign yourself to being buried, or are you going to step up on top of each fresh mound of dirt until you're finally able to step out of the hole? It all depends on whether you look at the dirt as something that will bury you or as something that can lift you higher. In short, it's a matter of attitude and perspective. Every day, problems, frustrations, challenges and uncertainty are heaped upon you. They can bury you if you let them. Or,they can lift you if you'll step up to them .Which will it be? Don't stand still and let yourself get buried when, with a bit of effort,you can use the very same situation to lift yourself up.
-- Ralph Marston

Funda#9:- Keep Going
If you've already achieved some success today, keep going. Build on that momentum and you'll achieve even more. If you've known nothing but frustration and disappointment today, keep going. Change your approach based on what you've learned and you'll get yourself where you want to go. Through it all, keep going. The only way to lose is to give up. The only way to win is to persist. It's a clear choice. You can give up now, you can settle for less, or you can continue for as long as it takes to achieve what you've set out to achieve. Time will pass no matter what you do. Time will keep on going. Your best strategy is to keep on going, too. Make use of every moment. When you're exhausted, get some rest. Then get back up and keep on going. You are destined to make things happen. You are here to make a difference. Keep on going, and in the persistence of your efforts, you'll find a level of joy and fulfillment that you otherwise could not know.
-- Ralph Marston

Funda#10:-Why not today?
There is something you've always wanted to do. There is some desire that you've always told yourself you would someday pursue. Well, why not today? Today is the perfect day for you to begin. Of all the days you have available to choose from, today will give you the earliest start and the best advantage. There is an ideal version of you that you've always dreamed of becoming. You can start right now to work toward becoming that person, toward living that life you've always wanted. Taking the first step is not difficult. It is well within your reach. It's your life we're talking about here. Don't you want to do everything possible to make it as great Time is constantly passing by. Starting right now to pursue the life you've always wanted will immediately put time on your side. As soon as you make the commitment to move forward, every moment will bring you closer to your goal.Get up and go for it. Start right now to create for yourself the life you deserve, the very best life you can imagine.
-- Ralph Marston
