Process of Winning ...Must be Your NEW FOCUS!

In life when we strive for something ...we do not want to let go out of sight the Prize or the expected outcome. Sometimes it becomes our Obsession. In my recent reflections, what I come to realize is that what I have to Focus on is the Process of reaching the Worthwhile GOAL. The JOURNEY itself is what we need to savor. We master our craft, we become the expert in what we do. Practice..Practice...Practice ....forget the GOAL or the PRIZE. Before YOU know it...you will have more than what you expected in return. You become a better person and you become the YOU. Everything you touch will turn into GOLD ...people will sense it and they will feel it. They would be ATTRACTED to You and would want to join you in your pursuits and be with your company. 

In this post, I would like to share with You , the contest that me and my wife joined. In this contest we have the chance of  Winning a Brand New Ford Focus 2012. The New Ford Focus raises the bar with unmistakable design and impressive efficiency. Focus also helps keep you connected and offers available driver-assist technology.

Our FOCUS shifted from Over-zealously wanting to win this car to doing the necessary actions that will enable our chance to go higher in winning it. What are the strategies or the processes that we plan to do and how to execute them well. Part of the strategy is this post on my blog. The other things we do are part of the learnings I acquired from earlier seminars and trainings that I have attend: Internet Marketing, Social Media Marketing, and Laws of Persuasion are all put into use.

Me and my wife are having Fun doing the process of  Having You Viewing the video, Enjoying it, and learning about the New Ford Focus. If ever we WIN it, it is Absolutely Fantastic! If not, we still had FUN and Great Learnings, most importantly meet New Friends while doing it! To Your Maximum Potential!

Here's that video..they count Unique Views only so Ask Your Friends to View it as Well =)

Dare to Soar Series - The Courage to Aim High

Standing on one of the highest peaks in Mount Pulag

Successful people do what unsuccessful people won‟t

Create something bigger than yourself.

Greatness is available to all.

Soaring is not taught within the walls of academia.

Like the eagle, once we have learned to soar it almost seems effortless.

The heart is a powerful tool.

The faster you move, the higher you soar.

Rise above mediocrity.

The higher you soar, the more beautiful the view.

Success comes to the man or woman who gives more than they receive.

There is freedom in excellence.

You usually hit where you aim-aim high.

A life without goals is a life without meaning

Choose results over rhetoric

The nest is a temporary environment

Resign from all your worries. When you can mentally do this, good things have a way of working for you.

There is a danger in the comfort zone.

Never ever accept mediocrity

Those who envision greatness usually achieve it.

Make sure the mission is honorable.

Give life something unexpected, something extra. The payback will greatly surprise you.

“Never, never, never, never give up.” -Sir Winston Churchill

Doing the right thing requires courage.

The road to excellence has a little traffic.

Don‟t fall into a pathole of indifference.

A dedicated hearth is powerful.

Enthusiasm has a way of rolling over the mistake.

Give more than you are asked and you will receive more that you can dream.

Kindness and courage are great companions.

There is comfort among the stars.

Listen to your conscience.

Why accept the challenge? Because it's there.

We are all supplied with the tools for success.

Creativity is a gift, an unlimited source of power that can change your life when you learn to harness it.

The rush to adrenaline is worth the risk.

The power of desire cannot be calculated.

Go the extra mile.

The horizon of life offers great opportunities.

Those who have the right kind of character don‟t tremble at the first sign of adversity.

Great achievers dream the impossible dreams.

Venture where others don‟t dare to tread.

Practice while others are sleeping.

There are great opportunities in high places.

The higher you go, the less competition you will find.

One must never mistake the silence of the forest for the absence of activity.

Without vision, we are blind to opportunity.

Your choice: victim or victor.

Champion only accept excellence.

The Most Important Meeting..

...You’ll Ever Attend Are the Meetings You Have With Yourself by Denis Waitley

What matters most is how you see and think about of yourself!
Remember You are Awesome! 

( The key is awareness. I am still guilty of this from time to time. Before I know it, I found myself being too critical of myself. Taking too much time wallowing from my mistakes and shortcomings. I am sure this happens to you a lot too. Follow below advise by one of my virtual mentor Denis Waitley , and you will certainly be on your way to higher achievement and personal excellence. To a Happier YOU! Enjoy =) )

You are your most important critic. There is no opinion as vitally important to your well-being as the opinion you have of yourself. As you read this, you’re talking to yourself right now. “Let’s see if I understand what he means by that…. How does that compare with my experiences? I’ll make note of that—try that tomorrow…. I already knew that…. I already do that.” I believe this self-talk, this psycholinguistics, or language of the mind, can be controlled to work for us, especially in the building of self-confidence and creativity. We’re all talking to ourselves every moment of our lives, except during certain portions of our sleeping cycle. We’re seldom even aware that we’re doing it. We all have a running commentary in our heads on events and our reactions to them.

-           Be aware of the silent conversation you have with yourself. Are you a nurturing coach or a critic? Do you reinforce your own success or negate it? Are you comfortable saying to yourself, “That’s more like it”. “Now we’re in the groove.” “Things are working out well.” “I am reaching my financial goals.” “I’ll do it better next time.”

-           When winners fail, they view it as a temporary inconvenience, a learning experience, an isolated event, and a steppingstone instead of a stumbling block.

-           When winners succeed, they reinforce that success, by feeling rewarded rather than guilty about the achievement and the applause.

-           When winners are paid a compliment, they simply respond: “Thank you.” They accept value graciously when it is paid. They pay value in their conversations with themselves and with other people.

A mark of an individual with healthy self-esteem is the ability to spend time alone, without constantly needing other people around. Being comfortable and enjoying solitary time reveals inner peace and centering. People who constantly need stimulation or conversation with others are often a bit insecure and thus need to be propped up by the company of others.

Always greet the people you meet with a smile. When introducing yourself in any new association, take the initiative to volunteer your own name first, clearly; and always extend your hand first, looking the person in the eyes when you speak.

In your telephone communications at work or at home, answer the telephone pleasantly, immediately giving your own name to the caller, before you ask who is calling. Whenever you initiate a call, always give your own name up front, before you ask for the party you want and before you state your business. Leading with your own name underscores that a person of value is making the call.

Don’t brag. People who trumpet their exploits and shout for service are actually calling for help. The showoffs, braggarts and blowhards are desperate for attention.

Don’t tell your problems to people, unless they’re directly involved with the solutions. And don’t make excuses. Successful people seek those who look and sound like success. Always talk affirmatively about the progress you are trying to make.

As we said earlier, find successful role models after whom you can pattern yourself. When you meet a mastermind, become a master mime, and learn all you can about how he or she succeeded. This is especially true with things you fear. Find someone who has conquered what you fear and learn from him or her.

When you make a mistake in life, or get ridiculed or rejected, look at mistakes as detours on the road to success, and view ridicule as ignorance. After a rejection, take a look at your BAG. B is for Blessings. Things you are endowed with that you often take for granted, like life itself, health, living in an abundant country, family, friends, career. A is for Accomplishments. Think of the many things you are proud of that you have done so far. And G is for Goals. Think of your big dreams and plans for the future that motivate you. If you took your BAG—blessings, accomplishments and goals—to a party, and spread them on the floor, in comparison to all your friends and the people you admire, you’d take your own bag home, realizing that you have as much going for yourself as anyone else. Always view rejection as part of one performance, not as a turndown of the performer.
