How to Take Control to Reach Your Business and Personal Goals Faster

Dear Conscious Entrepreneurs,

Are you as inspired by the Olympic Athletes as I am?  It’s been amazing to watch as the best of the best in the world demonstrate mental and physical excellence.  It reminds me that there are no excuses for doing less than my best and that true excellence is possible if I am committed to it.

How does one achieve excellence? Ask the athletes.  Each one will tell you that is a combination of intense mental and physical training that creates champions.  By carefully choosing their thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions (physical training), they are able to achieve magnificence.

And this is how you will do the same.  You are capable of more than you’ve ever dreamed.  The reason we choke up when we watch an Olympic athlete achieve greatness, is that we recognize a piece of ourselves in them.   It is the piece of ourselves that dreams big and doesn’t ever give up, no matter what.  Olympians represent the best version of ourselves.  From their example, we can follow their formula for success and start setting our own records.

On your mark….get set….GO!

How to Create Olympic Results
By Carlene Ashby

“Every choice moves us closer to or farther away from something. Where are your choices taking your life? What do your behaviors demonstrate that you are saying yes or no to in life?” — Eric Allenbaugh

Your Thoughts + Your Beliefs + Your Emotions + Your Actions = Your Results

Out of the millions and billions of circumstances, people, events that are occurring in your life and around the world, there are only four things you are in control of: Your thoughts, your beliefs (which are really just thoughts you think over and over again), your emotions and your actions.  That’s it.  Everything else is out of your hands.

Therefore, it makes sense to be precise about the four things you can control and choose them carefully.  This is the only way to be successful in life.  That may sound like hyperbole, but it is not.  If you do not take control of the only four things which you are able to control, it will always seem as if life is happening to you.

People who do not take responsibility for their own thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions are destined to be perpetual victims of circumstances. You are the captain of your own ship; therefore you must choose your course carefully or simply be thrashed about by the ocean of life until you eventually become washed up.  Sorry to sound harsh, but I won’t lie to you or sugar-coat the truth.  We get enough of that in life.

So, based on the above equation, ask yourself this question, “based on my results, what are the thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions that are working for me or not working for me?  For instance, if your results right now are not enough clients, not enough time and not enough money, what are your thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions that match those results?

Prosperity Assignment:

On a fresh sheet of paper, draw a line down the middle.  On one side, make a list of the results in your life that you are not happy with.  Doing this will help to create clarity about what results you would like to create.  On the other side, make a list of the results you desire.

On another sheet of paper, divide the page again.  On this page, write a list of the thoughts, beliefs and emotions that you have that are not supporting you.  If you get stuck or confused, look at the list of undesired results you created on the previous page.  Ask yourself, “What must my thoughts, beliefs and emotions be to create these results?  Be brutally honest with yourself and take your time.  On the other side, make another list of the actions that you are taking that are creating your undesired results.

Now look at your second list with your unsupportive thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions.  Which of those thoughts, beliefs and emotions are you willing to let go of?  Are you willing to replace them with new, supportive thoughts and beliefs?  Excellent!  Cross out the thoughts, beliefs, emotions and actions you want to release.

On a new sheet of paper, (I know, I know, this isn’t a tree-friendly exercise) write a list of the results you desire.  Be specific and think BIG!

On another sheet of paper, create a list of the thoughts, beliefs and actions you would need to think, believe and do in order to match those results.

Post these last two sheets of paper where you’ll see them daily.  I put mine on my bathroom mirror so I read them a few times a day.

Make sure you put your required actions in your daytimer or electronic organizer so that they get done!

Happy choosing!
