The Only Path Through The Wilderness Of Life

Friday, July 05, 2013
Posted by Unknown
The only way to really get through life is to be honest with yourself. That is easier said or written than done or practiced. But, it is the only real way to get through life in a good way.

I can name so many bad ways to get through life, but only that one good way that I mentioned in the first sentence, honesty. Sure, it can seem ridiculous at times and at most times when everything seems to go really bad. I would like to say this though, when you are honest with yourself, you do not have much else to live up to or impress. You just do what needs to be done. Sure, that is simple and succinct seeming.

Can it always be put into practice easily without wanting to take an "easier" way out? I will answer that question momentarily in the next paragraph. Right now, I will explain why honesty with yourself is the easiest way out and the hardest. Sure, we all want a path out of the wilderness without being hurt, messed up or with as little damage as possible, of course. Since, in reality, getting out and surviving whole starts with the resolve to do such a thing, I will say this: You cannot get out unless you accept or take the way out. Hard or easy, effort must be made to get out of a situation.

When Things Aren't Going Your Way

"For every adversity, every failure, every heartache, carries with it the seed of an equivalent or greater benefit." - Napolean Hill

Who has the perfect outcome in all situations? No one that I know. We all make plans or have hopes and dreams that don't always end up the way we wish them to. But, that doesn't mean that you aren't on the right path or that things won't ultimately work out in the end regardless of what you are going through.

Many times when going through some adversity or crisis we think it's the end of the world and there's no light at the end of the tunnel. It may very well be the end of something as you once knew it or hoped it would be but it certainly doesn't preclude you from having a life. And a good one at that.

How is it possible for a few people to succeed? How do they survive when other people are overcome by the problem? How do they win when others lose?

The answer is very simple. It is all how does they perceive their problems. They look at the problems realistically and periodically.

If we follow the following six principles, then we can put the problem in a proper perspective.

If we knew them, understand them and practiced them, we would be a winner
Want to know how to learn from failures? Your journey starts this second. The fact that you're reading this article is proof that you're prepared to take on the challenges that you might not want to face. It takes courage for people to realize that they need help on how to learn from failures. And you, my dear friend, have that. Learn from your mistakes and move on with your life starting with these steps.


Life is wonderful. Life is great. How blessed are we that we have a new opportunity every 24 hours?! There are no bad days if you keep everything into proper perspective. Be inspired to motivate yourself. There are certain things you can do, on a daily basis, to help you live a positive life.
If you've lost your motivation, how do you get it back? If next to getting out of bed, is the difficulty of getting out of the shower, it could be that you've lost the motivation that you once had for your work.
There are a number of reasons why people lose their motivation. Overwork and lack of proper relaxation probably head the list; but once you've lost it, how do you get it back. How can you recover the enthusiasm you once had when you started?
The answer lies in your perspective. When you first started, you had a dream that consisted not only of what your business could do for you, but also what it might look like: what your office would be like; the number of employees you've have; the respect you'd get from your peers or your family. No doubt, you also yearned for the financial benefits as well, but as you've no doubt discovered, the money alone is a short term motivator.
No, that which has caused you to become demotivated is the your perspective has changed. Instead of seeing the benefits, you've begun to dwell on the cost. You know that you're already giving 100% and may even be working all the hours that you possibly can; but when you hit a plateau despite your best efforts, then it's all too easy to lose your sense of judgment and proportion. It's easy, even comforting in a morbid sort of way, to put it down to some personal inadequacy, and give up.
This is what most people say about goals. "I don't need goals; I'm doing fine."
But the truth is, living your life without goals and objectives is like going from north London to south London on the underground but without use of the underground map with which train to catch in which direction. Hopping on and off station-to-station and hoping for the best. If you are doing well today without written goals and plans, you could probably be doing many times better in the future if you had clear targets to aim at and the ability to measure your progress as you go along.
If you have tried and failed before and look to give it one more try, you have to know your mistakes and learn from it and set realistic and time-bounded goals to make sure you are still in the right track.
Effective GOAL SETTING is essential and a critical step to achieve success. If you want to achieve the end result you have envisioned in your mind whether it be success at a business, the lifestyle you always dreamed of or finally having the financial security for your loved ones. Whatever end result you have, goal setting is necessary to achieving it.
Fortunately, goal setting is a skill, like time management, teaching, selling, managing, or anything else that you need to become a highly productive and effective person. And all skills are learnable. You can learn the skill by practice and repetition until it becomes as easy and as automatic as breathing. And from the very first day that you begin setting goals, the progress you will make and the successes you will enjoy will dazzle you.

Why You Lose Your Motivation

Do you ever get to where every day feels like Monday? Or, you think that it's Friday, only to learn that it's Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday? Are you convinced it's nearly 5 pm, and discover that it's only 3.00?
If you do, chances are that you've been overworking for some considerable time. Oh, you may not feel that you're overworked; but loss of motivation is a tell-tale sign that this is the case, especially if for you work is play, and play is work. If you love your work, it's all too easy to think you're relaxing, when in fact you're working.

5 Reasons Why Motivational Speakers Are Hired

Monday, December 05, 2011

When you need to motivate and inspire people to either do better in their work or become better persons, then you need motivational speaker for that. These types of speakers are those who help individuals on how to cope and handle their daily lives and even their efficiency over their work. The persons who mostly hire them are those who want to see an improvement with their workforce towards generating better results with their daily work.
These motivators encourage and inspire individuals to do better in their work and to become better persons.
Here are 5 reasons as to why a motivational speaker is hired.

 1. To Generate Better Results
There are times when a workforce or employees hit a stage where they are slowly becoming fed up with the same work routine every day thus making them bored and shrugging off some work in exchange for some time for themselves. The best way to change their attitude towards their work issues is to hire a motivational speaker to help and encourage them to look at their lives in a different perspective in order to not be easily fed up with anything they do. Thus in turn when they have applied new techniques and daily routines then they can look at their work in a different manner thus making them more active into producing excellent results.
2. Inspiring New Blood
Companies, corporations and business establishments that have recently hired new employees require a motivational speaker. This is to help them in inspiring the new members of their establishment to embrace the work that they have just received. The speaker is to talk to the new employees during their training in order to incorporate in their training their motivational techniques. There are times when the motivational speaker themselves become the actual trainers.
3. Encouraging Ideas
An important part of a business conference or seminar is the part where the motivational speaker takes center stage. This is the time where these speakers will do their inspirational magic to encourage the audience and the guests to push through with their business ideas. To inspire them to incorporate their ideas and their techniques should they wish to venture through to their dream business.
4. Step by Step Guide
Motivational speakers provide a step by step guide to their audiences, guests or clients so that they may have a reference of which stage they will proceed to next. These are just simple guides that help individuals on what steps to take right after in order to follow a certain path that will lead them to a satisfactory result.
5. Results
When motivating individuals, these motivational speakers expect results by the end of each of their discussion so the best way to do that is to ask questions to their audience and who ever answers correctly will be awarded. This is a technique to use in order to find out if the guests and the audience have truly been paying attention to the speaker during their discussion.

Reading is fun!, share the fun!!!
It's inevitable that at some point in our lives, we'll face failure and disappointment. It could be in our relationships, careers, business, studies, a driving test and so on. The most important thing is being able to move forward from that situation and not giving up on your goal, if it's something you truly desire. Know that it's okay to even change direction. If you're facing failure and disappointment, try these steps to help you move forward.

1) Grieve and then pick yourself up

It's alright to be sad and to wallow in self-pity. But just for a day. You do not want to keep yourself in that state for long because each day presents a chance for you to start over and improve your life. Just because you failed at something does not make you a failure as a person. Distinguish between the two. You can fail at something today, then succeed at it tomorrow. There's always another chance. And you will take it. So once you've wiped off your tears and eaten a whole tub of ice-cream, it's time to start afresh.

2) Take stock

It's important to look at how you that situation unfolded. Could you have done things differently? You need to be brutally honest with yourself here. If you messed up, then accept responsibility. You want to learn as much as you can from that experience to avoid making similar mistakes. There's a lot of information on the internet from where you can learn how other people handle similar situations.

3) Go back to the drawing board

Now that you know how things went wrong and have drawn lessons from it, it's time to make a fresh plan. This time you'll incorporate the lessons you've learned or find a totally different approach which may work better. If there are some weaknesses on your part, find out how you can strengthen them.

4) Take action

Don't hesitate to take action because you fear failure again.Look at it this way, if you act, your chances of success are 50%. But if you do nothing, your chances of success are zero. Do the math. Get inspiration from people like Thomas Edison, the light bulb inventor. He failed so many times but each failure was just one step away from success.

And the fact that you've failed before means you're actively engaged in life. And that's to be commended.

Chin up.
