The trick lies in making the activities you put off more interesting, easier, and less unpleasant. One way to make a job easier is to break it into smaller jobs.

Tellez, M.A. I find that most people are convinced that a resume is a necessary part of the job search, especially if an employer says so. Tain't necessarily so! Often an employer wants a resume because they don't really know what the job entails. They want a recital of what the job seeker knows or doesn't know about the job in question, without factoring in the personal about a real, live human being! The resume gives both parties something to go on, at least on paper. If the resume doesn't meet the eleme ... Are You Seeing a Vision? by Caterina Rando As we look at bringing your business to the next level, I ask you a very important question: do you have a vision—a Technicolor snapshot in your mind of what your ideal life looks like? If not, create one. Not a goal; goals come later. Visions are more powerful than goals because visions have an emotional component. When you see a picture, it evokes emotion—involving your heart, not just your head. This is far more powerful than only writing down an idea. For example, if you were to say, I want ... Self-Esteem in the Performance Arts by Dr. Patrick J. Cohn Many athletes and performers I work with often wrongly determine their self-worth by how successful they feel about their career. When an athlete performs well or feels successful, he or she can feel good about him or herself. But the opposite is also true: despair and low self-esteem results when this person does not perform well or view him or herself as a failure. Self-esteem is a core issue in my work because it affects every aspect of your life, not just dancing. Ballerinas are especially v ... Know your Mission by Clyde Dennis One passage states If you want to defeat them, distract them. Another reads divide and conquer. In the game of life there is a constant battle raging within and all around you for your attention. It’s like two opposing teams wanting to occupy the same spot on the playing field. That playing field being you. Each team is wanting to control where you go, what you do, who you do it with, etc. It is ultimately the unspoken goal of each of these teams to determine what you accomplish in your lifetime ... The Characteristics of a Winner by Clyde Dennis As kind of a hobby I like to watch people. Just kind of sit back and quietly watch how they react and respond to others and their environment. Through the course of this activity I've noticed a few things that the real winners in life seem to have in common. I'd like to point out a few of these characteristics for the purpose of reinforcing them. So without further delay or introductory verbiage... Winners have a pleasing attitude and personality. - Success seems to come more easily to those who ...

Control Your Own Destiny by Gerri D Smith “You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.” -Brian Tracy In order to make choices that may change your destiny, you must first know yourself and what you are creating moment by moment. What you do in the present moment brings you closer to being in command of your destiny. When you focus on past experience and the knowledge you’ve gained from school, work, ... Make Mistakes and Become Successful by Kenia Morales Would you like to start your own business? Become a super star? Get a college education? If none of the desires that I mentioned above motivate you then what does? Now ask yourself: what is holding you from making your dream a reality? Could it be fear of failure? Fear is a natural emotion that can help us stay safe. With fear we won’t throw ourselves from a building, cut a finger etc. which is a good thing. However, in reference to our desires fear can be fatal. It can paralyze us, often helps ... To be, or Not to be (Average)? by Clyde Dennis When is hate OK? When it's the feeling you have toward average. Let me make this point clearly and without reservation. I hate average! What is average? My dictionary describes it as being about midway between extremes. Being not out of the ordinary. Common. You know, Average. To me average is having a focus that's on just doing enough to meet the standard. Average is showing up for work, or school or that interview or meeting at precisely the time you're scheduled to start. Average is choosing ...

Think Small! by Laurie Hayes Many people have written to me about their personal goals and one I see quite often is “Get organized,” specifically, “Get the house in order.” When I ask what obstacles are in their way, the most common response is “procrastination.” By the time it gets to the point of showing up on a goals list, household organization has been neglected so much that the results have culminated into a mountain so big even the bravest of us want to run in the opposite direction! Procrastination is often the by-p ... Ingredients For Success by Ophelia Sanchez Management by Objectives, strategic planning, quality, teams, re-engineering. Passing management fads?

Exceptions Break The Rule by Ronnie Nijmeh The golden rule isn't: Treat others as you want to be treated... unless they tick you off. Nor does the commandment Thou shalt not steal come with restrictions or blackout periods. It's a rule — a very powerful rule — that should be followed in all circumstances. Any exception would break the rule completely. What's the point of a rule, goal, or plan if you don't follow it? If you're not willing to follow a plan, idea, or goal straight through, then don't bother pretending. You're only settin ... | ||||||
