How Bad Do YOU Want to WIN?

This is something you must ask yourself on a regular basis. Sometimes we tend to start things and not finish them. Or sometimes we start things with the intention of finishing them but something or in some cases someone gets in our way or distracts us from accomplishing our goals. The world we are living in has us distracted by many things and we are always looking for that "new shiny thing" which takes us off of our main goal: winning.

What does it mean to WIN? Winning may mean something different for everyone but I believe that most people can agree that winning is when you have experienced a reasonable amount of success in some area of your life. Some of you may not have experienced any success yet, but the remedy to failure is to keep on trying until you are successful.

Being consistent, persistent and determined to WIN is a part of the equation, but not all of it. You also need to know WHY you want to win. Not only do you need to know WHY, but you also need to know what purpose would your winning in a certain area or situation in your life serve? Will it help you out of a bad situation? Will it benefit all those who are involved? Ask yourself if what you are aiming or reaching for is worth it.

Last but not least, be dedicated. You have to be dedicated to yourself, your goals, and your dreams. No one is going to fight for your goals and dreams as hard or as much as you would, so why not fight for your success? My mentor and world renowned motivational speaker Les Brown has a saying, "No matter how bad it is, or how bad it gets, I'm going to make it!". That's the type of attitude that you must have for your life and for your dreams in general!

Having an "I can do it attitude" or a "I'm going to make it no matter what" type of mindset is what separates the losers from the winners and the followers from the leaders. So next time you question whether or not your goal or dream is possible, just ask yourself "How bad do I want to WIN?"

3 Keys to Move You Closer to Your Goals

In life you MUST have a reason for living. That reason must be stronger than anything in this world. You must have a passion, a burning desire to be more than what you are, to have more than what you have and to do more than what you are currently doing. You MUST want the thing you want with all the power and energy you have to bring that thing from the spiritual into the physical and into your experience.

There are some keys or habits that are required to develop enough fire to bring what you want to you faster than the speed of light. These 3 tips will help you stay in alignment with what you want. Use them for any area of your life that you are currently working on and you can use them anytime you wish.


Focus


You must be focused. You have to be as focused as a acrobat in the circus walking across a type rope. If you lose focus or concentration, you will fall or fail at bringing forth the results you want. You must put all of your energy and attention into what you want, giving no attention to the opposite of it. You must look forward and keep moving forward towards the thing in which you want. Block out all distractions. Make up your mind that you can and will have what you want.


Determination


You must be determined. If you are determined to get a thing, then the universe will bring it to you by way of your faith and belief that the thing is yours. You can have, be or do anything you want! Know that this is true for you and everyone else! If you know what you want, and you hold that idea into your mind you can cause it to manifest by your relentlessness and powerful determination to bring it to pass into your life.


Commitment


You've got to be committed to your success. Block out all negative people and influences. When you make a commitment to have the thing or things in which you want, the universe will open up the pathways and bring what you want to you. But you must be able to see the whole thing through. Yes, you may have some temporary defeat, but remember that failure is only temporary. Success is around the corner for those who hold to their idea of what they want and believe that no matter what they are going to get it.


Remember these 3 simple things everyday when you are in the pursuit of your goals. They will come in handy and help bring you closer to success!
