Have you ever asked that very important question? 

Go ahead, ask it right now…

“Why is life sooooooo great?!”

For years now Tony Robbins has been teaching that the quality of our lives is in direct proportion to the quality of questions we ask ourselves. For the last couple years, I’ve found tons of evidence that supports that…even neurological brain science!

The Power of the Subconscious Mind

Whatever questions you ask yourself, the subconscious mind will drive the answer in a way that is supportive of the question you ask!

For example, if you were to ask yourself ‘why does my life suck?’ your subconscious would kick into gear and say: (more…)

Yesterday afternoon while I was browsing the Steve Pavlina forums, I engaged in a very interesting discussion regarding the unhealthy nature of the concept ‘hard work,’ which was posted by senior forum member Cylon. In it he asks the question, “If it’s fun does it still count as “Hard Work?”

Due to the great insight both him and I received from the discussion, I had to share with you some of the highlights.

Hard Work and Stress

Cylon: “I think the concept of “hard work” as we use it in our western culture today, is unhealthy…on one extreme, embracing it can turn you into a stressed out workaholic, who has stress related illness, and dies young…On the other extreme, many people who may actually enjoy taking some deliberate, focused action will avoid it unnecessarily because they have associated any action whatsoever as being “hard” or “difficult” (basically, no pleasure involved)”

Have you ever acted in a way that made you think, “What in the bloody hell am I doing?!” Perhaps you’ve spent significant, indepth thought wondering to yourself why you do the things you do, through the common question of, “Why did I do that?…” Maybe, you even looked at others and thought, “What in the world is wrong with her?! Why would she do that?!!”

After today’s post I can assure you you’ll be able to answer those question in a way that will serve you at a very high level.

Since I returned earlier this week from staffing Tony Robbins latest 5 day event, ‘The Ultimate Business Mastery Summit,’ a lot of his materials have been rolling through my head…And specifically what he refers to as ‘the six fundamental human needs,’ which I briefly mentioned in Tuesdays post about turning failures into blessings. Today we’ll go much more indepth on those so you have a complete understanding of them.

First we have to ask ourselves… (more…)

‘God dammit, look what I did.’

‘I’m such a failure.’

‘There I go, screwing up again.’

‘Why do I have to be such a f**k up?’

‘Why can’t I be good at anything?’

Have thoughts like these ever gone through your head? Have you ever kicked yourself for not succeeding at something? If you have, then perhaps you’re looking at failures in a negative light.

You say: “Duh Sean! Failures are negative! How could they not be?”

Ahhh, grass hopper! Let’s take a dive into the realm of altered perception…

What are failures?

• They are not signs to tell you to stop trying.
• They are not signs for you to give up.
• They are not signs that you do not have the ability to be successful.

What I believe failures are, are (more…)
