<p>I’ll be addressing those in a couple days.</p>
<p>For now, I want to address one question that comes up more than most.</p>
<p>It’s usually a version of;</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>“When should I start (my product, approaching prospects, using the system)?”</strong></li>
<li><strong>“What’s the best way to (use the system, create product, approach a prospect)?”</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>The question seems good on the face of it, but the problem is it’s use as a way to delay actually doing something. So for that reason, it’s self-defeating.</p>
<p>Perhaps you’re a perfectionist and <strong>want everything “just right” before taking action</strong>.</p>
<p>Maybe, you just want to “make sure” you’ve done all you can before doing something.</p>
<p>Regardless, the issue <strong>comes down to action</strong>.</p>
<p>A simple success secret to remember is; &#8220;You can’t get from ‘here’ to ‘there’ without doing something.&#8221;</p>
<p>Let’s start with the system that you <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/wp-login.php" target="_blank">can access here</a> &lt;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p>I continue to receive email from those not sure what they should write where. Even though there are<strong> dozens of videos and audios</strong> teaching the exact steps.</p>
<p>You see, to <strong>get what you want</strong>, you have to define what you want&#8230;and that can be scary. To get what you want, you have to take action&#8230;and that can be scary.</p>
<p>When you come up to this fear, it’s an indicator that you’re about to leave your comfort zone&#8230;and that’s a good thing.</p>
<p>Delaying using a proven success system is an indicator that you’re <strong>uncomfortable</strong>.</p>
<p>Waiting to approach prospects (potential paying customers) is an indicator that you’re uncomfortable.</p>
<p>Most allow this fear to paralyze them, to keep them from taking action.</p>
<p><strong>Not you!</strong></p>
<p>You have a system to <strong>guide you step-by-step</strong> through the actions that can change your results.</p>
<p>The best way to start&#8230;is to start. <strong>Jump right in and start</strong> filling out the pages.</p>
<p><strong>Guess</strong> at defining your ideal life.</p>
<p><strong>Make mistakes</strong>, cross things out and just go for it.</p>
<p>That’s the beauty of the Let Your Millionaire Out Success System, by using it everyday, you can <strong>have fun creating and re-creating</strong> your life.</p>
<p>The resources are there waiting&#8230;can you work through the discomfort to get what you want?</p>
<p><strong>I know you can&#8230;do you?</strong></p>
<p>Go check out your resources and follow the steps outlined.</p>
<p>For those who are really hesitant, just spend a few minutes on the Power Start.</p>
<p>The secret to your success is to <strong>do a little each day</strong>.</p>
<p>Success is waiting..but you have to do something to get there.</p>
<p>To Your Millionaire!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/stupid-simple-time-management/">Stupid Simple Time Management</a> | <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com">Let Your Millionaire Out</a></p><p>Time management is not about time.</p>
<p>Time management is about you &#8211; it should be called “<strong>You Management</strong>.”</p>
<p>Last I checked <strong>time has been pretty consistent and predictable</strong> to the point of being boring. Twenty-four hours in a day. Seven days in a week. Three hundred sixty five days in a year.</p>
<h3>Not much to figure out or “manage.”</h3>
<p>No, let’s be clear. It’s not time you need to manage. It’s doing just fine. But you, now that’s another story.</p>
<p>My own struggles with time management go way back.</p>
<p>I was an <strong>expert in every time management system</strong> or planner available. From “The <a class="zem_slink" title="The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" href="http://www.amazon.com/Habits-Highly-Effective-People/dp/0743269519%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzemanta-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0743269519" rel="amazon">7 Habits</a>” to the original “<a class="zem_slink" title="Franklin Planner" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_Planner" rel="wikipedia">Franklin Planner</a>” to a 2&#215;2 card system that had me shuffling colored cards in and out of slots.</p>
<p>Nothing seemed to help me manage my time better. I continued to struggle.</p>
<p>Early on, I’d show up at the office, turn on the computer, check email, browse internet news. Then, I’d go where my curiosity lead me online, or to the most pressing email in my inbox.</p>
<p>I knew better but I just couldn’t seem to break the bad habits. Each morning seemed to <strong>feel like I was getting on the hamster wheel</strong> just to spend my energy going nowhere.</p>
<p>And then I stumbled on what I call a <strong>“stupid simple” time management tip</strong> that dramatically changed my results. And it was not limited to business.</p>
<p>But before I share it with you, consider <strong>the ‘cost’ of not managing YOU</strong>.</p>
<p>Have you had those days where you get to the end of the day and <strong>wondered what happened?</strong> You were busy but nothing seemed to get done.</p>
<p>Maybe <strong>you have those days too often</strong>.</p>
<p>Every once in a while I have one of those days. A lot less than I used to. But when I do, I feel terrible.</p>
<p>I feel guilty <strong>for what I “could have” accomplished</strong>. I feel upset with myself for not doing more. I feel like I <strong>wasted a day without much to show for it</strong>.</p>
<p>Then I’d get depressed because I was “one day further” from living the life I wanted.</p>
<p>Overall, it just sucked.</p>
<h3>Productive Days</h3>
<p>We’ve all had them. You know, those days <strong>where you’re “on fire”</strong> and accomplish things like a person possessed! Nothing is too complicated. No task faces a chance when coming up against you.</p>
<p>You’re a <strong>shining example of efficiency and effectiveness</strong>.</p>
<p>If only that feeling would last. And then you’d login and see those emails. Get sidetracked by those voicemails&#8230;and find yourself back on the hamster wheel.</p>
<h3>Stupid Simple</h3>
<p>Sometimes being stupid is the best thing I can do. Being stupid means lacking common sense. And let’s face it, <strong>common sense is not what it’s cracked up to be</strong>.</p>
<p>There’s a lot of time management tips shared by well-meaning people. Problem is, <strong>you have to manage all that information</strong>&#8230;and managing is the very problem you’re struggling with.</p>
<p>Times like that, <strong>I need simple</strong>. I need something that doesn’t require managing or figuring out.</p>
<p>I need one-thing that is the foundation of my day, everyday.</p>
<p>That’s where the <strong>“Stupid Simple Time Management Strategy”</strong> comes in.</p>
<h3>It’s This: Do One Thing.</h3>
<div id="attachment_359" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 241px"><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank"><img class="size-medium wp-image-359" title="let your millionaire out success system" src="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/crossroads-231x300.jpg" alt="let your millionaire out success system" width="231" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Front Cover of LYMO Success System</p></div>
<p>Huh? I can hear you say.</p>
<p>Seriously. On your “To Do” pad, <a href="http://goo.gl/79E6D" target="_blank">Outlook</a>, <a class="zem_slink" title="ICal" href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/what-is-macosx/mail-ical-address-book.html" rel="homepage">iCal</a>, notebook, or even your <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank">Let Your Millionaire Out Success System</a> &#8211; write out just one thing to achieve today.</p>
<p>Better yet, <strong>just write out and commit to doing one specific thing, each and every day</strong>.</p>
<p>Let me explain.</p>
<p>If you plan your day, you may write down 5, 7 or even more things “To Do” today. At the end of the day, there’s usually some not done (or all). And then tomorrow, you go through the whole routine again.</p>
<p><strong>The problem is you’re feeling a little less confident</strong> because you didn’t follow through on your “commitment.” This is a descending cycle of convincing yourself you’re not [fill in the blank with a non-supportive thought].</p>
<p><strong>Try This.</strong></p>
<p>Consider <strong>the one thing that will move you closer</strong> to your ideal day, week, year or life. Whatever. What one thing, if accomplished today, will move you a little closer to what you really want?</p>
<p>Write it down. <strong>That’s your one thing</strong>. Now go after it. Don’t do anything else until it’s done. Or if you have to, don’t end the day until it’s done.</p>
<h3>It’s About Commitment.</h3>
<p>Can you see this through? Can you accomplish this one thing? That’s really what this is all about, achieving what you commit to achieving.</p>
<p>“Oh, but I can’t pick just one thing,” you might think.</p>
<p>Do it. <strong>Pick one thing and one thing only</strong>.</p>
<p>How would you feel if you committed to do one thing, but accomplished five? A lot better than committing to seven, and only accomplishing five. Same amount of work, but feeling a whole lot better.</p>
<h3>Advanced Stupid Simple Time Management</h3>
<p>As you go committing to one thing each day, understand the difference between conditional and un-conditional commitments.</p>
<p>A <strong>conditional commitment</strong> describes the variables under which you’ll do something. For example, you might commit to writing every morning, Monday through Friday, for an hour.</p>
<p>The “Monday through Friday” is the condition to the commitment. You gave yourself Saturday and Sunday.</p>
<p>While still powerful, <strong>there’s a crack that can be exploited</strong>. Perhaps one Thursday morning, you sleep in, and hey, what’s one extra day, you think.</p>
<p><strong>Unconditional commitment</strong> is exactly that. It’s those things that you commit to regardless. Things like integrity and fidelity are (hopefully) examples of unconditional commitments.</p>
<p>Now imagine applying one, just one, of these to business. <strong>This can be a very powerful time management strategy</strong>.</p>
<p>How?</p>
<p>Imagine if you committed, every single day, seven days per week, 365 days per year (unconditional) to:<strong>Talk to one person about how you could help them.</strong></p>
<p>That’s 30 people per month. That’s a lot of potential business.</p>
<p>Are you beginning to see the power of this strategy?</p>
<h3>WARNING: Your Word is Your Bond</h3>
<p>Don’t be reckless with your commitment.</p>
<p>Start small and stay small until you’ve mastered this.</p>
<p><strong>Make one commitment and stick with it</strong>. Over time, you may be tempted to increase the number. Be vigilant with your commitments.</p>
<p>And be really careful with unconditional commitments. I have one regarding exercise. There are seven simple exercises that I do each and everyday. Period. I call them “The Daily 7” because&#8230;I do them daily&#8230;and there are seven of them.</p>
<p>But the other night, about half an hour before going to sleep, I realized I hadn’t done them. Did I say, “Oh well, I’ll do them twice tomorrow?” Nope, I made a commitment.</p>
<p>So, there I was, right before bed, doing my daily exercises. It wasn’t fun, but I felt a lot better because I had followed through.</p>
<p><strong>Go ahead. Pick one thing</strong>, if done everyday, could produce radical results in your life.</p>
<p>Don’t struggle with this or take three days to figure out. Pick one thing, <strong>the first thing that pops into your mind</strong>&#8230;not what you think you “should” do&#8230;and write it down.</p>
<p>Now commit to doing it everyday.</p>
<p>And if you have the guts, share your commitment below in the comments section.</p>

</div>
<p>The <strong>benefits of being skeptical</strong> far outweigh blind faith and conventional wisdom. When it comes to success, there are many attributes and lessons to be learned.</p>
<p>I was reading an interview with <a class="zem_slink" title="Investments" href="http://www.wikinvest.com/metric/Investments" rel="wikinvest" target="_blank">investment</a> legend <a class="zem_slink" title="Jim Rogers" href="http://www.jimrogers.com/" rel="homepage" target="_blank">Jim Rogers</a> about his recent book “<a class="zem_slink" title="A Gift to My Children: A Father's Lessons for Life and Investing" href="http://www.amazon.com/Gift-My-Children-Fathers-Investing/dp/1400067545%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzem-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D1400067545" rel="amazon" target="_blank">A Gift to My Children: A Father’s Lessons for Life and Investing</a>.”</p>
<p>Jim Rogers is best known for co-founding the Quantum Fund with billionaire <a class="zem_slink" title="George Soros" href="http://www.georgesoros.com" rel="homepage" target="_blank">George Soros</a>.</p>
<p>This fund famously returned 4,200% in just 10 years. He retired at age 37 to travel the world, and has since written five books on investing and success.</p>
<p>He has a long storied career and I encourage you to learn more about this man and investment legend.</p>
<h2>What’s That Have To Do With You</h2>
<p>I found the interview a good read and noticed near the end, the interviewer was asking about some of the wonderful <strong>life-lessons he learned</strong> over his career and various travels.</p>
<p>He responded:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>Rogers</strong>: Sure&#8230; Be skeptical&#8230; Be curious&#8230; Don&#8217;t believe anything you read until you&#8217;ve done your own research, your own thinking. This idea is responsible for some of my biggest successes.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>Be Skeptical, Be Curious, don’t believe anything you read</strong> until you’ve don your own research and thinking.</p>
<p>This characteristic <strong>made him hundreds of millions of dollars</strong> financially, and served him in other areas of his life.</p>
<h2>Being Skeptical Is a Good Thing</h2>
<p>Why this interview struck me is that recently, on two occasions, I’ve been <strong>charged with being skeptical</strong> as if it were a bad thing.</p>
<p>The people directing the charge <strong>implied negative intent</strong> &#8211; mostly because I just didn’t “buy” what they were saying, or <strong>reserved agreement or judgement</strong> until I’d done my own research.</p>
<p>I took their charge of skepticism as a compliment. So should you.</p>
<p><strong>To be skeptical means to not be easily convinced</strong>, to have doubts or reservations.</p>
<p>To me, it’s the opposite of blind faith.</p>
<h2>Another Benefit of Skepticism is You Can Get More Clients</h2>
<p>Getting more clients, investing and overall <strong>success can happen quicker through skepticism</strong>. Let me explain.</p>
<p>Let’s say you get an email offering a <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/" target="_blank">WordPress Plugin</a> that will; drive and convert traffic, build a product for you, sell it and send you the money while you sleep &#8211; all you have to do is <strong>give them $97</strong> and it’s yours.</p>
<p>This scenario is easy, you get this emails almost daily and are already so skeptical, you probably won’t even go check out the offer.</p>
<p><strong>But what about investing?</strong></p>
<p>Are you the type that hears a good tip on <a class="zem_slink" title="CNBC" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=40.8986111111,-73.9391666667&amp;spn=1.0,1.0&amp;q=40.8986111111,-73.9391666667%20%28CNBC%29&amp;t=h" rel="geolocation" target="_blank">CNBC</a> or a friend, and goes and buys 100 shares?</p>
<p>The <strong>investing skeptic</strong> may consider such a tip like the email offer, and just discard it, or best-case, research the company and compare it against what they heard.</p>
<p><strong>Politicians</strong> say a lot of things, but what they do is more important. One might say they seek peace, but continually authorizing more military intervention.</p>
<p>And what about all those<strong> fitness/exercise infomercials</strong> &#8211; do those products really work?</p>
<p>Well, that’s why they use all those testimonials, to try and <strong>address your skepticism</strong>.</p>
<h2>What About Getting Clients</h2>
<p>When talking to prospects about what I do, I sense some hesitation, or doubt. They seem to <strong>put on their “skeptic hat”</strong> once I talk about anything business related.</p>
<p>I think it’s based on our heavy sales and marketing culture. <strong>People are bombarded with advertisements</strong> and pitch’s all day long. It’s made us all a little more skeptical.</p>
<p><strong>And that’s a good thing.</strong></p>
<h2>Here’s How You Can Benefit From Skepticism</h2>
<p>When you’re talking or writing to prospects, <strong>consider them as highly skeptical. Consider their objections</strong> to your various claims, features and promises&#8230; and address them.</p>
<p>What <strong>objections come to mind</strong> regarding your product or service?</p>
<ul>
<li>Cost?</li>
<li>Have too many other programs I haven’t implemented?</li>
<li>Not sure what I get out of your program.</li>
<li>Not sure what it does.</li>
<li>Not sure how it works</li>
<li>Not sure why I need it</li>
<li>How do I know it will work?</li>
<li>What if I don’t like it?</li>
<li>Is it expensive (or a good deal?)</li>
<li>Why are you uniquely qualified to sell me this?</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Can you think of others</strong>?</p>
<p>By understanding their objections and other considerations keeping your prospect from signing up, buying or otherwise engaging your services, you can <strong>address these in your messaging</strong>.</p>
<p>Dealing with skepticism as a business person <strong>is not a passive affair</strong>. If you rely on your prospect to go and research the answers to the above objections, you won’t see many sales.</p>
<p>If, however, you anticipate the sources of their skepticism and <strong>address their concerns</strong>, you can help them overcome their doubts and make the purchase.</p>
<p>And that’s when you can start welcoming more business, and success, into your life.</p>
<p>To Your Skeptic,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/simple-success-secrets/">Success Secret: Do This Before Anything Else</a> | <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com">Let Your Millionaire Out</a></p><p>During a recent support teleclass, I shared a lot of the strategies that I have <strong>used to achieve success in numerous ventures</strong>. These took me years to learn and cost me thousands (many thousands of dollars).</p>
<p>There was some confusion over accessing the call.</p>
<p>Since I went through the Let Your Millionaire Out Success System, I opened the call up to only those members who have purchased it.</p>
<p>If you have the system, you can simply go to the download page and gain access to the recording. I&#8217;ll send an email with further instructions.</p>
<p>If you didn&#8217;t purchase it or weren&#8217;t able to make the call, let me recap it for you.</p>
<p>I created the <a title="Click to learn more..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank">Let Your Millionaire Out Success System</a> years ago as a starting point when working privately with clients.<a title="Click to learn more..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-359" title="let your millionaire out success system" src="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/crossroads-231x300.jpg" alt="let your millionaire out success system" width="231" height="300" /></a></p>
<p>From my experience, there are <strong>foundational issues that must be in place before</strong> you can effectively grow and change your results.</p>
<h3>What are the Basics?</h3>
<p>Simple, look at the basic structure.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s the <a title="Click to learn more..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank">daily success system</a> which helps you get clear about what you want while developing a <strong>daily habit of deliberately creating your day</strong>.</p>
<p>Then there&#8217;s the <strong><a href="http://www.LetYourMillionaireOut.com/laser-focus/">Focus</a>, <a href="http://www.LetYourMillionaireOut.com/passion/">Passion</a>, <a href="http://www.LetYourMillionaireOut.com/personal-power/">Power</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.LetYourMillionaireOut.com/profit-passion/">Profit </a>Modules</strong>. You can put the pieces together. You need to focus your energy, doing what you&#8217;re passionate about. You have to be able to act in spite of fear (Power) and know how to make money doing what you love.</p>
<p>Those are the basic elements that must be in place, from my experience, before you start worrying about USP&#8217;s, <a class="zem_slink" title="Search engine optimization" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimization" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">SEO</a>, branding, <a class="zem_slink" title="Sales process" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sales_process" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">sales funnel</a> and everything else. If you try to build on a weak foundation, you&#8217;ll find that your &#8216;house of cards&#8217; will eventually come tumbling down.</p>
<h3>The Call and the System</h3>
<p>The daily success system was the focus of the call, and thus, this article.</p>
<p>My success in <a class="zem_slink" title="Special forces" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_forces" rel="wikipedia" target="_blank">Special Forces</a>, building businesses, running Ironmans and other ventures, can be attributed to taking daily, consistent and effective actions. It required perseverance.</p>
<p>The Let Your Millionaire Out Success System was developed <strong>to give you a simple, 10-minute-per-day, practice to deliberately creating your results</strong>.</p>
<p>The initial 15 pages don&#8217;t look so intimidating, but as was shared yesterday, you can quickly get caught up into it and dive deep into layers of yourself you weren&#8217;t aware of.</p>
<h3>The Hardest Part</h3>
<p>The System is something I&#8217;m very proud of. Like you, I&#8217;ve read hundreds of self-help, success and other related books. I&#8217;ve gone to dozens of seminars and bought numerous home study courses.</p>
<p>My challenge, years ago, was <strong>condensing that information into actionable steps without becoming overwhelmed</strong>.</p>
<p>You see, I found myself with over a dozen notebooks, strategies and recommendations. I had a success journal, gratitude journal, to do list, <span class="zem_slink">vision boards</span>, affirmations and numerous other things I was trying to keep track up, and was even more confused than before I read all those things.</p>
<h3>I Needed Simplicity</h3>
<p>That&#8217;s when I said; &#8220;Enough!&#8221; I <strong>decided to simplify the key points and strategies</strong> of what I studied, learned or personally experienced as effective strategies.</p>
<p>I wanted to integrate everything <strong>into a single system, make it simple, and not invest more than 10-15 minutes per day</strong>.</p>
<p>Why 10-15 minutes? Because I always had 10-15 minutes, but anything over that and I&#8217;d come up with excuses for why I couldn&#8217;t.</p>
<h3>How About You</h3>
<p>You&#8217;ve, no doubt, read a lot about business, success and mindset. And like me, you may still have a lot of that information all over the place while you<strong> &#8216;try to figure out&#8217; how to integrate it all</strong>.</p>
<p>My advice is to <strong>organize it quickly and make sense of it, or put it aside and forget about it</strong>. If that sounds like too much work, I&#8217;d suggest picking one strategy or habit and focus on developing it until it becomes part of how you do things &#8211; and then pick the next one to develop.</p>
<p>Or, you can <strong>speed up the process and use the system I developed</strong>. But, only for 10-15 minutes per day.</p>
<p>This will give you a step-by-step system <strong>to follow everyday for consistency</strong>.</p>
<p>It will ensure you&#8217;re deliberately creating your day.</p>
<h3>Most People Do This</h3>
<p>From my experience, most people don&#8217;t have what they want because they don&#8217;t know what they want.</p>
<p>Oh sure, they&#8217;re experts of what they; don&#8217;t like, don&#8217;t want or don&#8217;t have. But when you ask them what they do want, they reply; &#8220;I don&#8217;t know.&#8221;</p>
<p>I share a quote in the system; &#8220;<strong>If you don&#8217;t know where you&#8217;re going, any road will take you there.</strong>&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;More&#8221; is not an effective desired outcome.</p>
<p>More money can be a by-product of doing what you love, but &#8216;more money&#8217; is not an effective goal for most people.</p>
<p>I designed the <a title="Click to learn more..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank">Let Your Millionaire Out Success System</a> to help you, through a very deliberate process, to get clear &#8211; really clear &#8211; about what you want. It&#8217;s the process I used to breakthrough my own fog of confusion, and the process I continue to use daily.</p>
<h3>In Conclusion</h3>
<p>No matter what you do. Whether you <strong>take the shortcut and get</strong> <a title="Click to learn more..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/new-to-lymo/" target="_blank">my system</a>, or decide to figure it out for yourself. I&#8217;d encourage you to take daily, small, effective actions that move you closer to the desired outcome you want. And if you&#8217;re not sure what that outcome is, or it doesn&#8217;t inspire you, I&#8217;d recommend getting really clear before moving forward.</p>
<p>To Your Millionaire!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/how-far-do-you-want-to-go/">How FAR do you want to go?</a> | <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com">Let Your Millionaire Out</a></p><p>The other day I had a conversation I have often.</p>
<p>My friend was working on various projects, making some progress, but not the results they were looking for.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ve probably heard that you can be a jack-of-all-trades, yet master of none.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve dealt with it myself when I have 15+ projects I want to get done, think I have to schedule time for each of them each week. But, that doesn&#8217;t work out for me, as I tend to end up feeling overwhelmed, while making little headway.</p>
<p>What does work is much less dramatic. It comes down to asking myself a simple question:</p>
<p><strong>How FAR do I want to go?</strong></p>
<p>F.A.R. = Focused Action leads to my Result</p>
<p>Pretty simple really. But not necessarily easy.</p>
<p>It means being like the plate spinner at the circus. What does the plate spinner do? You know the guy who gets 10 plates spinning at the same time.</p>
<p>Does he try spinning all 10 plates at the same time?</p>
<p>Of course not, it&#8217;s obvious, he would become very frustrated, very quickly&#8230; and fail.</p>
<p>No, the plate-spinner gets one plate spinning before attempting to get the 2nd plate spinning. Once he does this, he goes back and makes sure the 1st plate is still spinning, gives it a few more spins, then moves on to the 3rd plate.</p>
<p><strong>Implications for you?</strong></p>
<p>If you&#8217;re trying to:<br />
- Get some videos made<br />
- Write articles<br />
- Book speaking engagements<br />
- Work on proposals<br />
- Update your website&#8230; oh, you get the idea.</p>
<p>Pick one thing, get it &#8216;spinning&#8217; and then move on to the next one.</p>
<p>Even if you just spent one week per activity, how do you think your results would be affected?</p>
<p>How FAR do you want to go today?</p>
<p>To Your Millionaire!</p>
<p>David</p>
<p>PS &#8211; If you&#8217;re having trouble &#8220;picking the first one&#8221; you may want to consider the <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html">Focus Module</a> to help you choose.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/success-quote-i%e2%80%99ve-missed-over-9000-shots%e2%80%a6/">Success Quote: I’ve missed over 9,000 shots…</a> | <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com">Let Your Millionaire Out</a></p><p>One of the more famous quotes on success is this one by Michael Jordan. It doesn&#8217;t matter whether the quote is about sports, hobbies or general life principles. A good quote will encapsulate all categories.</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;I&#8217;ve missed over 9,000 shots in my career. I&#8217;ve lost almost 300 games. 26 times I&#8217;ve been trusted to take the game-winning shot&#8230;and missed. I&#8217;ve failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.&#8221;</strong><br />
~ Michael Jordan</p></blockquote>
<p>Arguably one of the best basketball players in the world thinks &#8220;failing&#8221; often is the key to success.</p>
<p>I only disagree with Michael with semantics.  I believe mistakes are missing the shots, failure would only be if he refused to play after missing a shot.</p>
<p><strong>When I first tried out for Special Forces</strong> in the US Marine Corps, I took an all-day (8+hours) test where you were &#8220;disqualified&#8221; if you failed any event during the day.</p>
<p>On my very first test (it was timed) I tripped and fell 10 feet to the ground.  I had a choice. I could stay on the ground a few more seconds and miss the opportunity to succeed. Though, I would have a good &#8220;excuse&#8221; for not making.</p>
<p>Or, I could <strong>jump back up</strong> and keep going. <a title="Learn how to get back on your feet..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/power-module.html" target="_self">Getting back up after you&#8217;ve been knocked down</a> is not easy. It&#8217;s a learned skill for most people.</p>
<p>What this success quote by Michael Jordan teaches me is to keep moving forward. To keep taking action. To keep failing faster and faster, so I can get to my desired outcome.</p>
<p>That day on the obstacle was <strong>not the only time I fell </strong>while serving 8 years in Special Forces. I had plenty of obstacles stand in my way. The trick is not avoiding them, but <a title="Get out of your own way and succeed..." href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/power-module.html" target="_self">charging into them head on</a>. Persistence is a learned skill, and all my successes came at the end of tremendous persistence.</p>
<p>Write this success quote down on a 3&#215;5 card and stare read it out loud everyday until it becomes a part of your method of operation.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/success-secret-key-focus-factors/">Success Secret: Key Focus Factors</a> | <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com">Let Your Millionaire Out</a></p><p>Master these elements and harness the power of having laser-sharp focus.</p>
<p>When I discovered and used the key focus factors below, I transformed my scattered energy into highly concentrated effort and began to burn through my obstacles.  I achieved more each week then I used to in a month.</p>
<h3>Let me explain&#8230;</h3>
<p>I used to <strong><em>have many projects going at one time</em></strong>.  I was figuring out how to increase sales, hire people, study marketing, exercise, spend quality time with my family.  I felt completely <em> scattered and ineffective</em>.</p>
<p>It seemed that although I had a lot going on, I had little to show for it.  That all changed when I discovered and mastered essential elements to <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html" target="_blank">achieve laser-sharp focus</a>.</p>
<h3>It&#8217;s not about balance&#8230;<a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html"><img class="alignright" style="margin: 10px;" title="Focus to Let Your Millionaire Out" src="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/images/IMCA_Finish.JPG" alt="Focus to Let Your Millionaire Out" width="241" height="345" /></a></h3>
<p>I hear that word thrown around as if it&#8217;s some kind of elixir.  Sure, it&#8217;s a nice concept, but from my perspective, misunderstood.</p>
<p>Balance does not mean equal and that&#8217;s the big mis-perception.  When you struggle with focus, chances are it&#8217;s because you&#8217;re trying to do it all.</p>
<p>You&#8217;re trying to get too many things done at once.</p>
<p>When I was building my first multi-million dollar business, I worked most of the time and spent much less time exercising or being with a significant other.</p>
<p>That was the choice I made for the results I wanted (more money).  So, I was in balance, but work occupied most of my time.</p>
<p>When training for <a href="http://www.ironman.com" target="_blank">Ironman Triathlons </a>(I&#8217;ve done four so far), I exercise about 20 hours per week (swimming, biking, running, weights and stretching).</p>
<p>This demands more of my time, so I work less, spend less time with family and more time sleeping (recovering from all that training). I was in balance, but a large chunk of time was spent training.</p>
<p>With my family, business and exercise routine, I&#8217;m constantly fine-tuning how to focus my energy and arranging my priorities.</p>
<p>You see, when you make the choices based on your priorities and from a position of strength, then you&#8217;re in balance.</p>
<p>If you make your choices from fear and obligation, then you&#8217;re probably &#8220;out of balance.&#8221;</p>
<h3>So, what can you do now?</h3>
<p>In dealing with my own ability to develop laser-sharp focus, I developed two things that you can use right now to bring more focus to you life.</p>
<ol>
<li>Follow a daily success ritual. Consider the <strong>Daily Power Start</strong> as described in the <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/getthesystem.html" target="_self">Let Your Millionaire Out Success System</a>.</li>
<li> Become a student of Focus Strategies. For Faster Results, do the Daily Power Start and master the strategies in the <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/laser-focus/">Focus Module</a></li>

<p>This is just too good a story. It&#8217;s a fascinating story whether you gleam any success secrets out of it or not. I grabbed quite a few, but more than that, I just found this very interesting.</p>

<p>In thirty-eight years, <em>The Price is Right</em> never had a contestant  guess the exact value of prizes in the Showcase showdown. Until Terry  Kniess outsmarted everyone — and changed everything.</p>

You, no doubt, have dozens of distractions each day.</p>
<p>The trick is learning how to &#8216;say no&#8217; or otherwise keep these distractions from side-tracking you. It&#8217;s one of the main benefits of the <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/getthesystem.html" target="_blank">Let Your Millionaire Out Success System</a> and <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html" target="_blank">Focus Module</a>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the difference between &#8220;doing something&#8221; and &#8220;wanting to do something.&#8221;</p>
<p>In addition to the many resources on my site, I like to broaden my own perspectives by staying up to date on the latest news, lessons and strategies of others&#8230; and share them with you. That way, you can rely on just one source to scan the internet and keep you up-to-date on the latest news.</p>

<p><strong>You can&#8217;t fix it if you keep <strong>focused</strong> on how broke it is</strong></p>
<p>All these statements will do is keep me <strong>focused</strong> on the fact that my car is broke. What should I be doing, when my car is broke down? I need to be <strong>focused</strong> on: <strong>Getting</strong> it fixed. <strong>Getting</strong> the money to pay for <strong>getting</strong> it fixed. &#8230;</p>

<p>I started to use the timer on my iPhone and set it for 15 to 30 minutes, during this time I would not do anything except for the one subject that I wanted to <strong>focus</strong> on. After a few days I have noticed that I am able to <strong>get</strong> twice as much &#8230;</p>

<p>Let&#8217;s face it, <strong><em>it&#8217;s not time that you manage but yourself</em></strong>.<a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html"><img class="alignright" style="margin: 10px;" title="time management tips to let your millionaire out" src="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/images/personalorganizer.jpg" alt="time management tips to let your millionaire out" width="212" height="141" /></a></p>
<p>Your ability to focus implies you have the ability to manage yourself, and your time, more effectively.</p>
<p>When I started out in my first business (building a warehousing &amp; distribution business) I faced many distractions each day.</p>
<p>Whether sales reps stopping by, employees needing guidance, fork lifts breaking down, and hundreds of other possibilities. There&#8217;s was always something that could take my time.</p>
<p>And you understand this too. <strong>There are always people and events attempting to take your time</strong>.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s up to you to protect yourself from these distractions, because what they really are is &#8220;Dream Snatchers.&#8221;</p>
<p>Really, when you let someone or something take your time, you&#8217;re giving up a little piece of your dream. Asking yourself whether this distraction moves you faster to your desired outcome or farther away, is a good start.</p>
<p>Next, it&#8217;s important to have a consistent method to manage your schedule.</p>
<p>What I found works is to <strong><em>build a fortress around your time</em></strong>.  This means to Protect &#8220;blocks&#8221; out of your day and week to work on specific projects.</p>
<p>Some &#8220;Time Blocks&#8221; may only be 2 hours long (i.e. 8-10:00 a.m.) to work on a specific project.  But imagine if you did that every day for a week, do you feel it would make a difference?</p>
<p>If you ever struggle with overwhelm or too many distractions, you may want to consider developing better habits and skills to manage your time.</p>
<p>Focusing your energy on one activity at a time during these &#8220;Time Blocks&#8221; is a great way to build your focus muscle. Practice this habit over time and very quickly you&#8217;ll start to understand the true power of concentrated energy.</p>
<p>The Power of Focus can help you create your desired outcome, but only if you remain rock-solid in your concentration and keenly focused on your desired outcome.  Build a fortress around your time to better manage your actions.</p>
<p>As a result, you&#8217;ll see less of what you don&#8217;t want and more of what you do. The  <a href="http://www.letyourmillionaireout.com/focus-module.html" target="_blank">Focus  Module</a> is designed to help you harness your energy and cultivate new time management  habits.</p>
