Success starts ONLY here...

The one thing you and ONLY you have full control over is your thoughts. Your thoughts shape your beliefs and your beliefs form your values, which in turn produce the reality in which you find yourself.
Therefore, to change your life you must fist change your thoughts. How is this done? Where do you start? You start by beginning to pay attention to your thoughts.
As the day progresses your mind wonders from thought to thought without any roadmap. You may start in house in the morning, but by lunch your thought may be in Asia, Europe, or even on another planet, by evening you may even be in a different universe.
The only way to take control of your thought is by beginning to pay attention to them. Write down what you find yourself thinking. Is it positive or negative, reality or fantasy? Whatever your thoughts are write them down and examine them at the end of the week.
So you have monitored your thoughts, what’s next?
You must begin to take control of your thoughts and focus them in a positive and productive direction. To do this though you need a map showing where you find yourself now to where you want to go next, a set of goals with purpose.
Most people set goals and then don’t follow through, why? Well most goals are usually something like I want to lose weight. This goal is not specific nor does it have the push and pull reasoning behind it.
Let’s follow through on the goal “I want to lose weight”.
This goal may seem like a good goal but there are at least 2 major things missing, a target amount, and a target time. Without these two items no goal you set will have much of a chance of succeeding. For a goal to succeed you must have specific targeted goals with specific target time to succeed.
A better goal would be: “I want to lose 10 pounds 30 days from now by Month, day, and year.”
This is a much better goal because it has a targeted amount and date. But this goal still leaves room for possible failure. What is missing is the reasons why you want to accomplish this goal and the reasons that you can NOT fail.
Every person is motivated and ruled by two factors the need to avoid pain and the desire to gain pleasure, with pain overruling pleasure if the subconscious believes that the pain will outweigh the pleasure gained.
For example if you knew you could walk 2 miles and dig at a spot marked with an X and find $500 you would probably do it because the reward outweighs the pain of walking 2 miles.
But suppose you have to walk 100 miles to dig a spot marked with an X to find $500, would you still do it? (And NO you cannot drive)… Does the reward still outweigh the pain of walking 100 miles?
How about walking 100 miles to dig up $100,000? Is that now worth the walk? How about $1,000,000?
Your answer to the questions above will differ from everyone else because everyone has differ beliefs and values and different views on what pain and pleaser are and which outweighs the other.
Can you change which one you choose? Of course, but it all revolves around changing your thoughts, which form your beliefs which form your values and your opinions on what is pain and what is pleasure and what the pain-pleasure limits are.
Of course changing all depends on whether or not you are currently happy with your belief-value set.
Remember if you don’t want to change you won’t! You MUST want to change in order to change.
The same goes for internet marketing. If you want to succeed and make money online you must first believe you can, then set goals with the amount you want to make by which date. With that said you must also take into account what you need to learn and how and what you are going to sell.
Remember thought that any success first starts with YOU and in your own thoughts. If you don’t believe you can do it, they you can’t, if you believe you can and set specific goals and reasons then you can.
