<h2>Create Your Success Mindset &#8211; Pt 1</h2>
<p></center><br />
 <br />
In our last several posts, we&#8217;ve been discussing how to create a <em>Success Mindset</em>. We began by discussing some tools you can you to help you achieve this. We talked about having a <em>Strategic Business Plan</em> and how to create our own <em>Mission Statement</em>.</p>
<p>Today we&#8217;ll discuss how to nurture and hold on to your Success Mindset &#8230; even in the face of adversity.</p>
<p>What would you do if I told you that today I was going to give you a simple strategy that you could do on a daily basis, that would <em>ensure your business, personal, and financial success</em> &#8230; if you would just do it religiously for one year.</p>
<p>Sounds good, doesn&#8217;t it?</p>
<p>Would you do it?</p>
<p>Of course you would. Well, that&#8217;s what this post is going to do for you today. Before the end of this article, you will have in your hands a simple practice that will absolutely guarantee that <em>you will change your entire life within the next year</em> &#8230; provided you simply do it daily. If you follow these instructions <em>you will completely change your current mindset</em>. You will successfully create and nurture a <em>Success Mindset</em> &#8230; and because everything you are begins with your thoughts &#8230; <em>you will change your world</em>.</p>
<p>This is not hyperbole or &#8220;hype&#8221;. I have nothing to gain by sending you off to do some useless &#8220;hocus pokus&#8221; for the next year that&#8217;s not going to do what I promise. You aren&#8217;t paying me for the privilege of reading this &#8230; or for what you&#8217;ll learn here today. My only motivation here is to help you by imparting a strategy that <em>I know</em> really works.</p>
<p>How do I know it works?</p>
<p>I know because I&#8217;ve done it myself &#8230; and I&#8217;ve done it myself because I&#8217;ve been taught by others &#8230; and those others learned this information because research has been done by many before into the habits of wealthy and successful people &#8230; and that research has discovered that those people have certain traits, habits, and ways of thinking in common &#8230; and <em>this strategy lies at the very foundation of their success</em>.</p>
<p>So will you do this? Well, that, of course is up to you. BUT &#8230; I&#8217;m going to make this little strategy SO SIMPLE, you&#8217;ll be hard-pressed to come up with a good excuse as to just why you wouldn&#8217;t.</p>
<h3>Pt 1 &#8211; What Is A Success Mindset?</h3>
<p> <br />
Everything begins as a thought. No one ever got a new pair of pants without first thinking, &#8220;I want a new pair of pants&#8221;. No one ever became a nurse without first thinking, &#8220;I want to become a nurse&#8221;. No one ever achieved great wealth without first thinking, &#8220;I want to make more money&#8221;.</p>
<p>You MUST ASK for what you want.</p>
<p>The trouble most of us have is that <em>we&#8217;re always asking for the wrong things</em> &#8230; we ask for the things we DON&#8217;T WANT! When we achieve something or gain something we like, instead of focusing on how much we like it, how grateful we are for it, what we did to gain or achieve it, and how to get our hands on more of the same thing &#8230; we immediately start thinking and focusing on how terrible it would be if we lost it, or it was taken away again. We fall into that negative trap and when we do &#8230; we&#8217;re actually <em>ASKING FOR THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE REALLY WANT!</em> When we start dwelling in that negativity we absolutely guarantee that we WILL lose the thing we wanted so badly.</p>
<p>Seriously consider this point: To gain the things we want in life &#8230; whatever that may be &#8230; we need to constantly ASK FOR IT.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t care WHO or WHAT you&#8217;re asking it of. It could be God, Buddha, the Universe, Quantum Mechanics, or some Cosmic Muffin, for all I know.</p>
<p>I also don&#8217;t care HOW you&#8217;re asking. It could be by Prayer, Intention, or Animal Sacrifice &#8230; it really doesn&#8217;t matter to the point I&#8217;m making here.</p>
<p>The thing to remember is this:</p>
<div>
<h4>Whoever You Ask &#8230; And However You Ask It &#8230;What You Receive Is Determined By One Thing:</h4>
</div>
<h4><em>What You Are Willing To Settle For</em></h4>
<p> </p>
<p>So &#8230; as you learn this powerful technique I&#8217;m going to teach you &#8230; and as you go about your daily routine &#8230; always keep asking yourself this question: <em>&#8220;Am I Asking For More? &#8230; Or Am I Settling For Less?&#8221;</em></p>
<p>These thoughts are <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Viagra Jelly">Viagra Jelly</a>  at the foundation of what I&#8217;m bring you here, and they are the explanation of just why this wonderful but simple technique is so powerful. With all this in mind &#8230; let&#8217;s proceed to gather together the tools we need to put this all together.</p>
<h3>Did You Create Your Strategic Business Plan &amp; Mission Statement?</h3>
<p> </p>
<p>Did you go through the process we described in the last two posts and create your <em>Strategic Business Plan</em> and write out your concise <em>Mission Statement</em>?</p>
<p>If you didn&#8217;t &#8230; then this is the time to get that done. Go back to those posts and do that now. You&#8217;ll need them both &#8230; especially your Strategic Business Plan &#8230; if you&#8217;re going to proceed. What we&#8217;re going to do here is bring these all together into a kind of synergy &#8230; something you can use in your everyday work process that will keep you focused on the job at hand, and keep you from getting lost in the negativity of fear.</p>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve got your Strategic Business Plan and your Mission Statement in hand, we can proceed. So if you haven&#8217;t done it yet &#8230; go to the sidebar on this webpage and find the posts about your Strategic Business Plan and your Mission Statement. Do them in that order and then go ahead and proceed to the next post. You&#8217;ll find a Direct Link at the bottom of this post that will move you onwards through the process.</p>
<p>See you on the next page!</p>

<h2>Pt 2 &#8211; Using Your Daily Checklist</h2>
<p></center></p>
<p>So &#8230; you&#8217;ve visited the previous posts and composed your Mission Statement and your Strategic Business Plan, right? All caught up are we? Good &#8230; let&#8217;s move on.</p>
<p>Now, you have your Mission statement, and you know what that&#8217;s for and how to use it. If you don&#8217;t, you can find that information in the previous post where we covered all that.</p>
<p>You also have your Strategic Business Plan. You also understand the use of this item from the post on the subject, and you should use your it in just that way.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s where things get really powerful! We&#8217;re going to incorporate your Strategic Business Plan with another tool you probably already use. We&#8217;re just going to create a variation on a theme &#8230; a certain way of combining these things &#8230; that will keep you energized, laser-focused, and nurturing your Success Mindset each and every day of the year of this year-long project.</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>You Do Use A Daily Checklist, Right?</h3>
<p></center></p>
<p>We haven&#8217;t covered a <em>Daily Checklist</em> in this series as I&#8217;m taking it for granted that you use one. My good friend Janet Legere is always teaching the importance of using a checklist on a daily basis. Working at home we&#8217;re susceptible to all sorts of distractions. Working online makes it even worse. The Internet&#8217;s middle name seems to be &#8220;distraction&#8221; for most of us. A Daily Checklist is vital to organizing our business, staying focused, and really getting anything accomplished at all. If you&#8217;re not using a checklist it&#8217;s likely that you&#8217;re simply flailing <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Kamagra Gold">Kamagra Gold</a>  around uselessly, expending a lot of effort and accomplishing nothing.</p>
<p>Just a quick review of your <em>Daily Checklist</em>:</p>
<p>Preferably every evening when you finish work &#8230; or, alternately, each morning before you begin &#8230; you simply sit down and write out a list of the things you need to accomplish in your next work session. You prioritize that list, then proceed from the top on down. You assign a certain amount of time to each item so as to fill your work day. When you reach the end of the time assigned to any item, if it&#8217;s not yet completed, you STOP and move on to whatever is scheduled next on the list. Any incomplete items are simply moved to a time frame the next day to be completed. Those that are completed within their time frame are simply dropped from the list.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s basically how your Daily Checklist works, and just doing that alone is tremendously powerful to your productivity and your business organization. As I said, I take it for granted that most of you reading this are already doing this in some form or another. If you&#8217;re not &#8230; start now!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the point of all this:</p>
<p>Your Daily Checklist is a great organizational tool. It helps with focus and can really ramp up your productivity while increasing the ease with which you get things done. However, <em>it is only a list of things to do</em>. It&#8217;s not designed to help maintain your <em>Success Mindset</em>, to motivate you and keep you focused on your &#8220;why&#8221;. Those things are provided by your <em>Mission Statement</em> and your <em>Strategic Business Plan</em>.</p>
<p>In the next post, we&#8217;re going to meld these things together in such a way that &#8230; if you use it as I&#8217;m teaching you here &#8230; you can&#8217;t help but change your life for the better.</p>
<p>So &#8230; that&#8217;s it for this post. To proceed to the next video and the real &#8220;nutz and boltz&#8221; of how to put this great strategy to work for you daily &#8230; simply use the link you&#8217;ll find below to press on!</p>

<h2>Pt 3 &#8211; Boost Your Success Mindset</h2>
<p></center></p>
<p>Welcome to the third and last part of our series. This is where the rubber actually meets the road. In this post, we&#8217;ll cover the actual &#8220;how to&#8221; of the great motivational and mind-training tool I&#8217;ve been leading up to with all of this. </p>
<p>NOW &#8230; here is the one little tip that I invite you to practice for one year on a daily basis that I GUARANTEE will literally <em>change your life</em> by <em>changing your mind</em>..</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>Specifically Prioritize Your Strategic Business Plan</h3>
<p></center></p>
<p>What we need to do now is to prioritize your Strategic Business Plan in a very specific way. You&#8217;re going to be taking your plan and from it you will make another list. This list will be prioritized into 3 Specific Categories:</p>
<p><strong>1 &#8211; Things To Be Accomplished Within The Next 30 Days.<br />
2 &#8211; Things To Be Accomplished Within The Next 90 Days.<br />
3 &#8211; Things To Be Accomplished Within The Next 6 Months.</strong></p>
<p>Have those three headings on your list, and take the items from your Strategic Business Plan and insert them under the appropriate heading according to their completion time-line. </p>
<p>Now &#8230; prioritize, honestly, the items from your plan as they appear under these three headings. In other words, under the 30 Day Time-Frame heading, put the item that&#8217;s truly most important first, the second in spot number two, etc. Be HONEST about this in the sense of importance &#8230; not what is easiest. Which one NEEDS to be done first is the way this should be approached.</p>
<p>Then &#8230; do the same for all three categories.</p>
<p>Now, once that&#8217;s done, we&#8217;re going to put this prioritized list aside for a moment and go on.</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>Frame Your Daily Checklist Within Your Strategic Business Plan</h3>
<p></center></p>
<p>Remember that prioritized list of items we just created from our Strategic Business Plan? Well, it&#8217;s time to grab that now.</p>
<p>Now we&#8217;re going to customize our Daily Checklist to include the most important and highly-prioritized items from our Strategic Business plan right into the same document. To do that, I&#8217;ve created a template for you. To download that customizable template, simply use the link below, and then follow along for the explanation on how to use it.</p>

<p>You&#8217;ll notice that, at the top of the document, before the numbered items of your daily activity begins, you are going to insert Items &#8220;A&#8221;, &#8220;B&#8221;, and &#8220;C&#8221;. These are part of the template and what you insert will not change daily.</p>
<p>These items will be taken from the list you just made from your Strategic Business Plan, and they will be listed in this way:</p>
<p><strong>A: The most important item from your 30 day time frame.<br />
B: The most important item from your 90 day time frame.<br />
C: The most important item from your 6 month time frame.</strong></p>
<p>These will be printed daily displaying at the top of your daily checklist. Below them will come a numbered list that you will fill out on a daily basis, but these three at the top will remain the same. They will serve as reminders of what the daily items are meant to accomplish.</p>
<p>The first item from the top part of your list to be accomplished will be Item &#8220;A&#8221;. When that happens you can remove it from the Checklist Template. At that point, it&#8217;s a great opportunity to re-visit and update your Strategic Business Plan &#8230; re-prioritize and re-list &#8230; and re-do your Daily Checklist template.</p>
<p>You do see the power of this, don&#8217;t you?</p>
<p>I knew you would, because it&#8217;s obvious! You are incorporating your <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Kamagra Soft">Kamagra Soft</a>  short, mid, and long-term objectives &#8230; those you&#8217;ve decided on through creating your <em>Mission Statement</em> and your <em>Strategic Business Plan</em> &#8230; with your <em>Daily Checklist</em> &#8230; so that ALL OF THEM WORK TOGETHER, constantly working to help keep you focused on doing JUST THE NEXT STEP &#8230; but, also keeping your &#8220;whys&#8221; and &#8220;hows&#8221; right there in front of you all the time.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s It! You&#8217;ve got it!</p>
<p>Now, all you have to do is to &#8220;wash, rinse, and repeat&#8221;.</p>
<p>At the beginning of this series, I made you a promise. I&#8217;d like to re-iterate that here. I promise and guarantee you that if you will create your <em>Mission Statement</em>, and your <em>Strategic Business Plan</em> &#8230; use them as described and combine them in this way with your <em>Daily Checklist</em> &#8230; you will set in motion a chain of events that will create and nurture within you a true <em>Success Mindset</em>. It&#8217;s inevitable.</p>
<p>From this activity, your thoughts will begin to change, as your focus is constantly directed to <em>what you actually want</em> &#8230; not what you fear and don&#8217;t want. Every single time you begin to fall victim to being &#8220;overwhelmed&#8221;, or &#8220;losing focus&#8221; &#8230; both of which stem from fear of loss &#8230; you will find yourself being re-energized, re-motivated, and re-focused on what you DO want &#8230; and WHY you want it &#8230; and HOW you&#8217;re going to get it. You&#8217;ll automatically find yourself asking for what you want by doing the things you need to do to achieve what you want &#8230; and you&#8217;ll do those things easily, happily, and you&#8217;ll get more done in less time and with less effort than you ever thought possible.</p>
<p>So &#8230; I&#8217;ve given you a lot of good information here, haven&#8217;t I?</p>
<p>You can see the value of taking it to heart and acting on it now, can&#8217;t you?</p>
<p>Good! You&#8217;re going to be absolutely amazed at what this will do for you. AND &#8230; I promise you that you needn&#8217;t wait a year to see results. Download the template file today, get the items you need together, and start using it tomorrow. You&#8217;ll find that within a couple of days you&#8217;ll be having more fun and you&#8217;ll begin to see results almost immediately. The reason I make this a year-long challenge is simple: You&#8217;ll see HUGE results in that time. You&#8217;re entire life will change!</p>
<p>I promise!</p>
<p>As always &#8230; if you have questions about this or want to discuss it in any way &#8230; I&#8217;m available to you. You can see if I&#8217;m in my Virtual Office on that page of this website &#8230; or find me on Skype or through the Contact Me page. I&#8217;d be happy to help in any way I can.</p>
<p>Have A GREAT Day!</p>

<p><strong>==========================</strong></p>
<p><strong>PS:</strong> If you remember &#8230; at the beginning of this series, in Video #1 &#8230; I told you I was going to ask you to do something. Well &#8230; here it is. Take it seriously or not &#8230; that choice is yours.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll notice I&#8217;m just giving this information to you. I&#8217;m not charging &#8230; I&#8217;m not putting it in an eBook and selling it through ClickBank. BUT &#8230; I am so sure this will work for you that I&#8217;d like to propose something here:</p>
<p>Take this advice. Do this faithfully for one year. At the end of this time do an assessment. Make an honest accounting of just what you think this advice and little lesson was worth to your business. When you come up with a figure &#8230; ask me for my PayPal email &#8230; and then send that amount to me.</p>
<p>I guarantee you &#8230; if just ten of you reading this do this exercise as described &#8230; I&#8217;ll have a REALLY GOOD YEAR!</p>

<h2>How To Write Your Strategic Business Plan</h2>
<p></center></p>
<p>Here&#8217;s <a href="http://enoprescription-cialis.net/item.php?name=Kamagra jelly">Kamagra jelly</a>  a question for you: If you were going to drive from Los Angeles to Nashville, would you get in the car and start driving without first having a good idea of how to get there? No, you wouldn&#8217;t. Unless you were planning a very relaxed, meandering journey &#8230; with no urgency and no particular arrival time &#8230; you&#8217;d get on Google Maps, look up the exact address in Nashville that was your destination, and plan your route from beginning to end. You&#8217;d have a strategic plan to carry out that was designed to achieve your goal of getting to Nashville.</p>
<p>Well, your online business is the same. Before you even start marketing anything online, you need a strategic business plan designed to help you achieve your goals. One of the main reasons people fail when they begin to create income from home is for lack of a coherent and specific business plan designed in advance.</p>
<p>If you have no business plan as yet, but you&#8217;re already working online &#8230;  it&#8217;s not too late. Follow this simple guide, create your strategic business plan &#8230; and many of the problems you&#8217;ve probably encountered will simply disappear.</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>Why Do You Want To Create Income From Home?</s/h3></center></p>
<p>To create your strategic business plan, first ask yourself <em>WHY</em>. Why do you want a home business in the first place? If you work from home, and successfully make money from home, what will that bring to you that you desire so much? You&#8217;ll want to write down reasons that might be general in nature, such as &#8220;I can spend more time with my family&#8221;, or &#8220;having more money will take away the stress of constant worry about bills&#8221;. You should also write down reasons that may be specific to your own business, like &#8220;I want to get these great products into as many hands as possible to help improve their health&#8221;, or &#8220;the more people use my products the more we help the environment&#8221;.</p>
<p>BUT &#8230; be specific &#8230; and <em>ACTUALLY WRITE IT DOWN</em> in list form.</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>HOW WILL YOU GET WHAT YOU WANT?</h3>
<p></center></p>
<p>Your list should lead you to the next step in creating a strategic business plan: Your roadmap.</p>
<p>Once you have your list, take each item, study it, and decide what needs to be done to achieve it and how exactly you&#8217;re going to do it. Give yourself a timeframe to achieve each item and break it all down into smaller, easily digestible steps. Then, write a short paragraph about each item on your list, and detail what you need to do to get there, how long it&#8217;s going to take, and the steps you&#8217;re going to carry out to achieve each item in your plan. </p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be concerned about being overly detailed or wordy. This can be simple and direct sentences like, &#8220;I will build my online mailing list by using giveaways on traffic exchanges and list building web sites&#8221; &#8230; or, &#8220;I will sponsor non-profit organizations into my business who can use our services as fund-raising activities&#8221;. Remember: your strategic business plan should be something you can glance at as a reminder when you need to &#8230; not something that reads like Tolstoy and takes you a long time to get into. Simple, direct, and short is best, as long as everything important to you is included.</p>
<p><center><br />
<h3>PRIORITIZE AND UPDATE YOUR BUSINESS PLAN</h3>
<p></center></p>
<p>Now you have your &#8220;why&#8221; and you&#8217;ve added a &#8220;roadmap&#8221; to it. Next, <em>prioritize your plan</em> by simply putting each paragraph in order of importance. Ask yourself, &#8220;Which one of these items needs to be done first?&#8221; &#8230; &#8220;which second?&#8221; &#8230; and so on. Of course, some will overlap, but arrange them in as good an order as you can. Then &#8230; get started!</p>
<p>Keep in mind that a strategic business plan is not a static thing. Items on your list will be completed and passed by. Situations will change and new items will move into your radar and onto your list. You are not the same today as you will be two years from now, and your business isn&#8217;t either. Neither is the market in which you operate. All of this fluidity means that your strategic business plan will need updating on a regular basis. You should revisit it in detail at least once a month. Remove things as they are accomplished and add the new items as they present themselves.</p>
<p>Having a strategic business plan for your Internet business &#8230; instead of flailing around on the Internet blindly and with no clear objective in mind &#8230; is essential to your success. The success of your business plan depends on whether or not you actually write it down and keep it handy. If you have it to refer to when things go wrong or times get tough &#8230; and you&#8217;ve created your business plan correctly &#8230; you&#8217;ll find it will go a long way to assure your success.</p>
<p>Have A GREAT Day!</p>
