Success Secrets Hidden In Your Brain

My favorite secret to success is not well known.  It’s helped me with numerous challenges.  Here’s how it works.  You have a question, challenge or situation you want a solution for.  And before you choose a solution, you probably like to have a few options to consider before deciding on which option you feel is best.

Wouldn’t it be great to outsource all this “brain work” so you don’t have to ‘think’ about it? With a “10 List” you get all of this and hopefully a better chance at achieving success regardless of the task or challenge.

What’s Your Challenge?

Let’s take the example of getting more clients.  Perhaps you’ve been struggling with ; “where can I find qualified prospects?”  You would then turn that into the “10 List” format – “10 Places I Can Find Qualified Prospects.”  You write this at the top of a page, then write numbers 1 thru 10 down the left hand column.  It would look something like this:

“10 Places I Can Find Qualified Prospects”

1. At rotary clubs
2. At the exercise club
3. Ask my accountant
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

If you can think of any places right away, write them in.  If not, set the paper aside, put it in your organizer or your Let Your Millionaire Out Success System.  That’s it.

Your Secret Brain Hack

What you’ve done is activate the neural circuits in your reticular activating system.  In essence, you’ve “outsourced” the discovery of more places to find qualified prospects to the subconscious part of your brain.  The secret to your success is recognizing that approximately 96% of your brain power is used by the subconscious part of your brain.

Most people are trying to solve problems with the conscious part of their brains – the other 4%.  It’s like choosing to use a skateboard instead of a race car to drive across the country… sure, you’ll probably get there either way, but one is going to be long and drawn out, the other, fast (and fun).

Throughout the coming days, out of seemingly nowhere, ideas of where to find prospects will “pop” into your head – write them down.  You may be in the shower, driving the car or exercising, that’s okay, write them down or record them into your phone’s voice memo feature.

If you must, call yourself and leave a message, it doesn’t matter, but it does matter to capture these thoughts within 3-5 seconds or they may disappear for good.

So, grab a sheet of paper, write your “10 List” at the top and enlist your brain to help you achieve a new level of success.
