This road map is how I made a multiple six figure company my first year in business.

If I could do that year over again, I...

Ultimately, how you look at your life, is what will make you happy or unhappy. When you are consumed with negative thoughts and beliefs, you will discover that you are unhappy with your life. Eventually, your perception of the world will become your reality.

This is why changing your mindset is so important because it will make a substantial difference in your life.

Here are four signs that it’s time for you to change your mindset.

You Focus on Everything That’s Wrong

A sure indication that you need to shift your mindset is when you continuously fix your attention on the disappointments and worry in your life.

To change this mindset, you need to take some time to think about the things you are thankful for in your life. This will help to keep the negative thoughts from overwhelming your perspective.

You Refuse to Face the Truth

Complaining all the time about reality won't change anything.

Always complaining about your life is your...

Having constant negative thoughts pouring through your mind will quickly put a damper on your creativity, and tends to get in the way of realizing your true potential.

While we all know that being more positive and optimistic in our lives will help us find success, but many struggle to make the change from a negative to a positive mindset.

This week I will give you 3 simple keys to help you overcome negativity and change your life.  Are you ready?

Recognize When You Are Using Negative Thoughts

Often, when we are being ridiculed, facing disappointment, or not wanting to put in the effort, we'll use negative thoughts to protect ourselves.

When we think negative thoughts, like "It won't work," or "I can't do that," we are permitting ourselves to play it safe.

When you catch yourself thinking negatively and talking yourself out of action, take a step back and remind yourself that the most successful people have also faced failure.

...

When it comes to finding your true life’s purpose, the key to achieving what you want may lie in your ability to utilize visualization to achieve it.

Knowing how to visualize the outcome that you desire will help you become a stronger, happier, and more effective person and help you find your true life’s purpose.

This week I want to share with you three easy visualization techniques – to help you reach your goals:

Treasure Map Technique

This visualization technique uses both a physical component as well as the obvious mental one.

The first thing that you need to do is to think of something that you would like to achieve.
Begin by drawing a physical representation of all the factors that are involved.

If you want to earn the top score on an exam, draw a picture of yourself, a building to represent the school and a book to represent study.

You want to try and make the drawing as detailed as possible. The drawing itself isn't the critical...

When it comes to awakening your true calling, success begins with a goal. Big or small, goals will give you some purpose and keep you headed in the right direction.

Unfortunately, for many of us, we remain stuck at the goal stage. We begin with good intentions, but then we can't seem to make it happen. Before we can believe in a goal that we've set for ourselves, we first need to have an idea of what the goal looks like.

Seeing is Believing

This is where visualization comes in, which is nothing more than a technique for creating a mental image of a future event. When we visualize that which we desire, we start to see the possibility of achieving it. It is through visualization that we can catch a glimpse of what is our “preferred future.” When this happens, we find the motivation and prepare ourselves to pursue our goal.

Why Visualization Works

According to research, visualization works because the neurons in our brains, interpret the imagery...

How often do you tell yourself that you can't wait for the weekend to arrive? ...And how often do you tell yourself how much you hate Mondays? Be honest! 

I so often hear people say things like that. I see it on Social Media and all other places. All the time.

It makes me sad. It shouldn't be that way.

Don't misunderstand me. I want for you to look forward to the weekend to arrive. I want you to  look forward to spending more time with your family, doing things you love, to sleep in, and just enjoy your life.

What makes me sad is knowing that there are so many of you who hate Mondays. Who get stressed out and angry when you know you have to go to work when Monday arrives. 

Just because you can't stand your job. You hate it. But you stay. Monday after Monday. Week after week. 

That is sad! You should look forward to Monday and a new week at work! You should look forward to meeting your colleagues and do what you love. What...

Today I want to tell you a little secret. A tiny, but yet so powerful secret. It’s the secret of building a mindset of success. A mindset that helps you reach your goals. Every single time.

When you tell yourself that something is difficult or impossible, it normally is. For you. Not for the person that are telling herself it’s not. She will make it. Because she will try. She might fail a time or two, but she will continue trying until she make it.

It’s just like Henry Ford said back then. He said:

«Whether you think you can, or you think you can't--you're right.»

 And he was right.

It’s all about the mindset. It’s all about your mindset.

You see, if you tell yourself every single day that you are tired, stressed out and anxious, that is also what you will become.

But if you tell yourself that you can do what you set your mind to, things starting to shift. You might not believe me right now. You’re...

Whether we like to admit it or not; it’s oh so often fears that are holding us back from getting where we’d really like to be. It’s our fears that are holding us back from something new. Something we are supposed to be doing with the rest of our lives...

I have talked about fear earlier. Both in a couple of the episodes of Create Your Dream Career TV, and in earlier blog posts. But I can’t stop there. I have to address this black, scary, unseen thing called fear. I have to address it. Not just once or twice. But as often as possible, just so we at last can see that it wasn’t as scary as we thought it was...

Let’s talk about the fears when it comes to changing our career for something better.

First of all, if you close your eyes and imagine yourself as a 90-year-old you. You are about to say goodbye to this world. When you are sitting there in your chair, looking out the window, what would you tell yourself? What would you...

When I start coaching a client, and we start to talk about what career would be "the one" for them, I always write their answer down with a question mark.

Do I not believe them? Of course I do! I believe that they "think" that what they describe to me is "the one" career for them. But it's often not what's right for them... What they really, really want. Deep down.

You see...

There are so many factors that makes us believe it's something special we should be doing for a living. 

I want to share 3 of the factors with you here in this blog post, so let's dive right in!

Are you ready?

Number 1, Your Values

Your values describes who you are. They describe what you really want in life, and how you should live your life in order to live the life you really deserve and desire.

Sometimes your values can work against you. It's not that you have the wrong set of values. Nothing is wrong or right when it come to your values. They only...

Of course you wouldn't. It could be a matter of life and death if you tried.

You would need to have someone by your side that knew what to do, and when to do it. Right? And you had to learn it step by step, not by rushing in on the large fire right away...

I know this. I know how crucial it is to get the help you need. To get the stories, the tricks, and to learn the smart way to fight fires. To get all the information and training you need, before going out there on your own.

I know this because I was one of them. I was one who needed to learn how to fight fires. I was one of those who needed to learn how to handle the feelings and desperation of people who had just experienced the worst that could happened to them.

You see... I was a firefighter back then. I was a firefighter for 9 years before I became a fire chief. Never in my wildest fantasy would I ever let one of my men in on a call out if he hadn't had someone to coach him on what to...
