[Thursday Club] Suggestions & Knowledge – BOOM!
Hey there sunshine – it’s FRI-YAAAYYYYYY!!!!
Next week don’t forget to tune in for our session on Personal Branding with Mike Valetta and Mark Ewing. I tease these guys all the time that they are the next Beekman 1802 – Maine version. They just launched a new brand that is AMAZING – but I’ll let them share…
If you are new to the Club – welcome. Poke around the insider group, learn, comment in the forum and let’s get some work done!!!
Thanks to one of my fav clients and Thursday Club members Heather for pointing out that we need to spend a lot of time on Napoleon Hill’s 13 principles. Truly – this made my day. I’m such an NH geek that I could talk about him all D A Y L O N G.
Challenge Accepted.
Recap – last week it was all about Desire and Faith. If you don’t give yourself a 10 in this area you will struggle. You need deep desire and 100% faith that you can accomplish whatever it is you want to accomplish. If you aren’t a 10 – work on it. PS – call me if you are struggling. Here’s my calendar.
Today – it’s about principles 3 & 4.
#3 Auto Suggestion. This is about using affirmation to get where you want to go and is really how you solidify your FAITH.
You need to picture yourself IN the end zone as the winner already.
Don’t use words like I think I can – use I AM. Skip over the I will do that – I AM doing it.
I always go back to my marathon. There was zero doubt I would finish even though I had HORRIBLE conditions that day. I just kept focusing on how I would FEEL when I crossed the finish line. I focused on putting one foot in front of the other knowing each one would get me to where I wanted to be.
I am a marathoner. I am a finisher.
Go to your goal. Look in the mirror and SAY I am a SUCCESS, I am FIT, I am an AUTHOR – even if you aren’t there YET – you need to start acting like you are. Eventually, you will begin to believe it and increase your FAITH.
#4 SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE
You are here – so you are already a seeker of knowledge, but Napoleon Hill and all successful people are Knowledge Ninjas – as they are in CONSTANT LEARNING mode. Constant.
EVERY DAY you need to enrich your brain with something that elevates you towards your goal.
Daily you need to GAIN EXPERIENCE in whatever your goal is. You want to be a paid Actor – then daily you need to hone your skills.
This needs to be DAILY. Make it part of your daily actions. Schedule it. It doesn’t have to be hours, but it does need to be consistent.
This is important: Be a focused learner. Find out where you need to hone your skills the most and focus on that. If you want to publish a book – you need to write daily, you need to find a writing coach that can lead you down the right path.
HOMEWORK
- Rate yourself on a scale of 1 to 10 on where you are with DESIRE and FAITH
- Write down your AUTO SUGGESTIONS – the I AM statements – repeat them daily
- Block your calendar with SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE learning time. DAILY.
Time to kick some butt! See you Thursday on the inside
