A Layman Version Of The Successful Language

Try to imagine yourself in a physician’s clinic. You have undergone a series of tests trying to diagnose a simple episode of diarrhea. Now, the laboratory results and tests reveal the disease. The physician now starts explaining everything using highly sophisticated medical terms. You are now confused with what he or she is trying to tell you because of the terms he or she used. It made you more anxious of your diagnosis instead of the other way around. Instead of comprehending your current state you become more unaware of what’s happening.

Would you ask that physician to explain it to you in layman or opt to get a second opinion from another physician who can explain it crystal clear?

What I’m trying to say is this. If someone alienates you to perform a simple task, ask the person who delegated you until its crystal clear. No loss! Right? Getting a second opinion is an option but will just waste precious time and effort. Asking directly to the person involve will just optimize your performance and produce expected and maximum results in no time. Now, learning the language of the successful people are simply discussed in layman at Brian Tracy’s book, “Eat That Frog!” The language of successful people is so simple and direct. It’s either a “yes” or a “no”. No “ifs”, “buts”, “maybes”. They tell you directly if it’s a hit or not. By learning how to converse like a successful person requires discipline, focus, confidence, action, swift delivery and creativity. Most of the techniques taught in the book aren’t the usual things you learn in school but very vital if you’re decided to achieve success. What you learn in the four corners of your classroom is different in the real world. All you need to learn is to think like a CEO, work like the company owner and motivated like a kid. “Eat That Frog” reveals it all by telling you to think on paper and eat the biggest and ugliest “frogs” in your work pond FIRST. It will surely help you comprehend the language of success.

Bringing Out Your Successful You

Have you been wasting your God-given time torn with your work and just waiting for success to give you a chance? Honestly speaking, all the time you’ve been waiting for success, you totally ignored it all your life. Success is a discipline mate.

They have been undergoing series of trainings and lifestyle modifications since last year. They have been training with discipline and motivating themselves to push everything to the limits. “No pain, no gain” is their motto. Now, if you’re still sitting there and doing nothing, you wouldn’t even taste or see a glimpse of success in your life. That is for a fact. If you want success, you have to work hard for you to earn it.

Technology Can Pull You Down

“Beep!” sounded my blackberry. “Ding Dong!” rang the bell in my mobile phone. A machine voice speaking out of my Mac book, “You have 888 new emails!” over and over again, these devices have been sounding off and alarming me for more than 15 times in a minute. I can’t stay in focus with my job because I get tempted to check who has messaged me. I love it but it’s not doing me any good. I may say now that technology is bringing me down. It makes me attend more to these gadgets and work less. What a distraction!

Brian Tracy’s spanking hit, “Eat That Frog” discussed how turning every technological device OFF will make you work efficiently and focused. I believe that but how can I check my messages, my emails, etc. if I turned everything off or even in silent mode. I would still feel the “itch” to even peek at it. But, “Eat That Frog” tells how you can manage your time efficiently. It makes you earn extra FREE hours by just doing your tasks with focus.

So, I’ve tried it one day and see if I can stand it. What I did was to break everything to me gently was to designate 15 minutes every 3 hours to check my messages. By golly, it really worked! I get my work done in less time and still afford to check my mails. I guess I wanted to learn the hard way and tried it myself. What’s ironic about it was when I accidentally left my mobile and blackberry in a cab two days ago and I’m honestly enjoying it. I do still have plans to purchase a new one. But, it amazes me how simple life can be without these technology devices.

Worries Of A Procrastinator Ready For Change

I woke up this morning with a very lucid dream. I saw myself in a room – without a door and window. It felt more of like I’m in a box. The feeling was eerie and I didn’t like where I was. I was trying to get out but it seems that I’m stuck. Until I saw this ladder just lying down on the floor and realized that it was just there all the time. I hurriedly went to the ladder and saw that it wasn’t sturdy enough to carry my weight. But, I still struggled to put it against the wall and trying to climb up the ceiling (apparently, it was the only way out). When I was about to touch the ceiling and saw the light, I woke up. The ray of the sun passing through the window was naively mantling my whole face. I then got up from bed and spent 10 minutes just thinking and reflecting about my dream. Everything felt so real. I then snapped out of it and knew what I had to do. I had this really big project coming up in less than 2 weeks and I still haven’t done anything relevant for it. No inputs were done and wasted time gathering all the necessary materials. I haven’t even spent quality time with my family for the past 6 months and still bombarded with tons of tasks. I realized that only if I applied the principles from Brian Tracy’s book, “Eat That Frog!” my life would be a lot more organized and easier. But, I can’t start procrastinating and blaming myself again – that will just waste time. So, what I have in mind is to apply it now like a “lifesaver” and see if I can pull everything off. I just hope everything works.

The Art of Success

I understand that you are now what I used to be. I have found myself in a trap where I felt that I am going nowhere and bounded with the so-called “rat race”. I lived a stressful life before. I was trying to achieve financial freedom but found myself just working to pay all my monthly bills. My life didn’t change until I became a “frog eater”.

Brian Tracy’s book, “Eat That Frog!” made me a much more relaxed and positive person. It taught me simple approaches in my daily tasks and responsibilities. Just by eating the frogs, I learned how to prioritize and approach everything. I can now say I live a successful life. I enjoy my family’s company, my development as an individual and my finances is starting to establish.

The art of success entails discipline and focus. Never soak yourself up with a lot of external pressures. It simply destroys your initiative as an individual. Learning from Brian Tracy’s work of art is simply fascinating. The techniques are easy to follow and it brings everything in perspective. The art of success is like a jigsaw puzzle where only you can figure your way up.

Motivating Thyself

“What is it in me that holds me back?”

“What should I perform to accelerate my motivation to accomplish?”

These are common questions when one is in the crossroads. We are now living in a fast changing world where the demands of each profession sky rockets. If you’re not contented with your current job simply tells you that you are not growing as an individual in that field. Your interest and your drive to succeed are in the drain. No matter what your efforts are, you still feel unmotivated and held back. You envy others who enjoy their profession that ends up in procrastination.

Stop there and try to pause for a while. You have been dwelling in the most powerful negative vibration – self-destruction.

Brian Tracy’s hit, “Eat That Frog!” tell you to stop & relax. Try to define your purpose again and know where your passion rests. By doing so, it’ll give you a fresh start and find yourself motivated again. It will make everything clear like a bird’s eye view. It’s just like a footy game. The audience sees what the players did or did not. The players just played but didn’t see what you saw. Be the audience. Look everything in a different angle. You might just find the missing piece of the puzzle.

Motivating thyself needs not to be rushed. You need to spend time for yourself because it’s your self silently shouting for attention. By jump starting your game plan and focus will help improve your performance. According to Gandhi, “There is more to life than just increasing its speed.”
