Is The Law of Attraction a Matter of Talent or A Matter of Luck

I think that when things work out, many times we think of that famous line, "The Universe cooperates in my favor!" Is this what Law of Attraction is?? Everything just seems to fall into place; coincidences seem to make the path easier, luck seems to be on my side. I have had that feeling! Have you?

But if you really think about it, the so-co consipiracy of the universe is nothing mystical; and nothing benefits us in some random manner without us having done anything for it to happen. We did do something. We have desires, dreams, ideas, plans, persistence work, kept our convictions concerning our purposes, and despite all the obstacles, we never let our enthusiam weaken. And then all the efforts, emotive persistence, consistent work started to pay off. The right people appeared, not out of luck, but because we attracted them with our energy..

Opportunities come not by chance, but because we, network marketers, personal developers, mentors and coaches, have laid the groundwork for other marketers to follow. People think and sometime believe that to have talent, it has to be a matter of luck; however, very few think that luck itself may very well be a matter of talent. What is talent then? It is a matter of knowing how to listen to your intuition, believing in yourself and who you are, and who you are becoming, knowing how to prepare, knowing how to create trust, create relationships, and to know how to create a good impression, and knowing how to execute our expectations.

I personally think that this is why certain people attract to certain professionals. The law of attraction happens when you are commited, consistent, persistent, truthful, hopeful, faithful and caring and truly giving from your heart with no strings attached to people who need help.

I have found in my life, faith is my secret weapon.

Live your dreams!

What does it take to be a successful entrepreneur? It takes ambition and the desire to truly master the art and science of becoming a successful entrepreneur. And in my opinion ambition is far more important than brains, because if you have ambition you can always hire good brains. What is your number one rule of thumb in business? The more people we serve, the more money we make. It’s as simple as that Do you think it is easier now than when you first started? Well, first of all, it’s never easy; but in this day and age technology and the internet have made access to global markets a lot more accessible. What is the number one skill an entrepreneur should learn? I think it’s raising capital for their business. In today’s world you have to be so damn good for people to give you money, you need to be proven because there are simply too many unethical people out there. Most entrepreneurs do not know how to do this and are therefore limited in how much they can grow. Do you think there are generic qualities required to be a successful entrepreneur? Me and Donald (Donald Trump) have put together, based on our experiences, five qualities that all successful entrepreneurs require which combined gives them the Midas Touch. The first quality every entrepreneur needs to possess is strength of character. In business, many times an entrepreneur is tested, and as you become more and more successful the more you are tested, so how you show up as a person is a good indication of the type of entrepreneur you are. The next quality is the ability to stay focused. F.O.C.U.S means Follow One Course Until Successful – the emphasis here being on Until Successful. Most entrepreneurs fail because they lack the strength of character and the ability to stay on course until successful. The third quality is relationships. Whenever you find a struggling business, a bad marriage, or an investment gone bad, you will find a bad partner. This does not mean the person is a bad person. It just means they are a bad partner, the wrong person for the task. Working with the right partners is essential to becoming a successful entrepreneur because at the end of the day you can’t do a good deal with a bad partner. The fourth quality is an entrepreneur’s ability to build a brand. Many entrepreneurs work hard building a business, but only a few build a brand. Building your business into a brand is essential in developing the Midas Touch. For example, the Coca-Cola brand is worth much more than all the building plants, equipment, and capital goods making up the business. The fifth and final quality comes down to getting the little things done. Too many entrepreneurs think small and fail to focus on the little things that count. What should an entrepreneur look for when bringing on board a new business partner? In a partner you are looking for someone with synergy, a person who shares the same values and mission, and can bring something to the table that you do not have. What is the number one skill you possess that has allowed you to succeed in business? I would have to say personal development. It has taught me to be truthful to myself and other people. I always seek professional help from my list of advisors and occasionally I see a therapist because to be an entrepreneur you have to be nuts. Why did you decide to be an entrepreneur? I decided to be an entrepreneur because I didn’t want to be limited by how much I could earn and essentially I didn’t want to be poor. Setting goals on how much money we want and over time we have realised that to earn more you have to give more. Excepts from a Q&A interview with Alex Pirouz, Robert Kiyosaki discusses what it takes to be successful in business, the No 1 skill every entrepreneur should learn and the five qualities required by every entrepreneur in order to become successful.

If Your Dreams are Big Enough,The Facts Don't Count!

I would like to share a quote, that I got from a great Coach and Mentor, Larry Beacham. If you are struggling to find your passion you need or will stop and take a quiet moment to identify exactly why you are doing what you are doing.



If it is for money, cars, vacations, prestige and all the trappings of this world, I hate to to disappoint you, because you really haven't found your passion. These things are worth having, but when it gets hard and you don't know if you're going to make it, these thing will NOT move you to continue . It is not until you can identify the core purpose that you will truly do whatever it takes. Here is a great quote by Les Brown. Use this quote in your autosuggestion and self-talk.



If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it, to work day and night for it it, to give up your time, your peace, and your sleep for it. If all that you dream and scheme is about it, and life seems useless and worthless without it. If you'll gladly sweat for it, and fret for it, and plan for it, and lose all your terror of the opposition for it. If you simply go after that thing that you want with all of your capacity, strength and sagacity; FAITH, hope, confidence, and stern pertinacity. If neither cold, poverty, famine or gaunt, sickness and pain; a body or brain can't keep away from that thing that you want. If in darkness and grim you beseech and beset it, with the help of God , you'll get.

Stepping Stones to Success by Using the Slight Edge Approach by Jeff Olson

"Success in life comes one day at a time and, as Jeff Olson suggests, one step at a time. The Slight Edge will show you how your daily decisions can be the ultimate key to your success."Ken Blanchard"

“The simple little disciplines done again and again over time would move the highest and mightiest mountains” This is what is known as the as the Slight Edge Philosophy by Jeff Olson. Being in MLM/Network Marketing, for me personally, I need to use this approach. I always thought by doing a little bit everyday was doing the slight edge approach and philosophy. What I didn’t do is discipline myself the right way. I got overwhelmed, tired and to the point of being in the arena of almost quitting MLM/Network Marketing.

I have had some work trying to get back on track, not only with organization, not only with my mindset but with my exercise. Today was my first difficult hike this summer. The trail was called rock circuit trail. Which means it was a difficult hike with a lot of rock climbing and basically alot of rocks. While I was hiking, I had to look in front of my feet, constantly. As I was hiking, I got to thinking about Jeff Olson and the Slight Edge approach. I remember writing an article last year, when we had two massive snow storms in a row and it was my attitude that got me through it. I remember Jeff Olson Slight Edge Philosophy. Autosuggestion and prayer got me through today's hike and through this past winter.

When you do things for a reason or with meaning, things are easier, your attitude is better and you are more focused. It was and is important for me to focus what is right in front of me and not what was is ahead of me.The point I am trying to make is you have to be positive, disciplined and focus on what is right in front of you by taking baby steps. Take baby steps and it when you do take baby steps, you learn how to master the slight edge philosophy. “Learning how to learn”.

Because I took some time off from marketing, I had to take along hard look and step back at what I had been doing for the past two years. Is network marketing my passion? My passion is learning, teaching, networking and people. These last two years have not been wasted but I know I could have been more focused, committed, and understood things, followed through more efficiently by taking the slight edge approach more seriously, and disciplined myself better, things would and probably be different today.

It’s not just about doing a little bit every day. It’s about DISCIPLINING YOURSELF to commit, focus and do something with meaning. Learning “how to learn” as Jeff Olson states in his book. It doesn’t have to be huge; it just has to be meaningful. When I read Jeff Olson’s book called the Slight Edge, my understanding is that when I do something every day with meaning and continue to do it, you begin to discipline yourself and understand what you are doing, and it keeps me moving forward.



I can say today, that my passion is to teach, network and learn; my passion has and will always be to help others.



If there is a part of Jeff Olson and his book that I want you to takeaway, it is to remember when you were in the process of learning how to walk, you crawled, you stood, you walked, you fell and in the process of all of this you learned how to walk, how miraculous.



What is different today is people want to run; they don’t want to take baby steps with any goal. When did you lose the ability to make a goal, go for it, and get it?



Somewhere along the way in your/our lives, we were conditioned. You and I became unwilling to take baby steps. You and I lost faith in the universal truth that the simple little disciplines done over and over, again and again over time would move mountains and be profound.



The Slight Edge philosophy is based on doing things that are easy-little disciplines (baby steps), in which, over time done consistently, add up to the biggest achievements. The problem is that all those things that are easy to do are just as easy not to do. Why is something easy not to do? If you don't do it; it won't kill you TODAY. But, that insignificant error in judgment, compounded over time, will d destroy you, kill your dreams and desires and ruin any chance for you to have success, you can count on it.

How I Transformed Adversity into Success.

I was speaking to someone who I admire in this industry. When he spoke, I felt his vibrations and his vibrations were so positive. He made such an impact on me; I could actually feel how driven, motivated, and positive he was with every word he spoke. I had to re-think about my life and personal development, because I want to be just like him. Although, I do great with my daily autosuggestion, positive thinking and spiritual growth; after speaking with him, I thought to myself, I wanted what he had. I wanted to feel that there is nothing in this industry I cannot do or become. I started wholeheartedly to focus on my personal growth and development. I now know the formula for success, “MINDSET +Skillset=Success”.

How can I change my mind of Adversity? How do I stop thinking about all the struggles, misfortunes, and difficulties I have and had in my life and in this industry? How can I transform adversity into success? How can I dominate my subconscious mind completely? I have realized adversity isn’t an obstacle to get around in order to resume living my life and becoming successful. It has to be part of my life. I think of it as an obscuration or shadow, sometimes I see it alot and sometimes I see it a little, but I know it is there and it is always with me. There is adversity in everyone’s life and it’s all very real and relative to every single person. Adversity can and has an impact on everyone. But what I have learned and learning is once we adapt to adversity, we can change and transform.

Overcoming adversity, opening ourselves up to setbacks, and choosing to see it as natural, we can adapt to it and use it in a positive way. What a great idea! It amazes me and impresses me how many stories I have read and what I have learned. Great leaders confront and act on adversity. They change difficult, into simple and misfortune into fortune and great wealth. They thrive on chaos and adversity. No adversity seems too great. What I figured out and what helps me is, there are days that I experience mundane events that seem to create setbacks in my life. My solutions: adapt, transform and change.


Perhaps until we are tested, we don’t know what we are made of. Maybe that is what adversity gives us; a sense of self, and a sense of our own power. We can give ourselves a gift and re-imagine adversity as something more than tough times. Maybe we can see it as change. Let’s learn from it. Embrace it and accept it. The great Charles Darwin wrote about evolution. He illustrated the truth about the human character. It is not the strongest who survives, nor is it the most intelligent who survives; it is the one that is most adaptable to change. Change your thought, learn HOW to think and take advantage of your adversities.


“Adversity is like a strong wind. It tears away from us all but the things that cannot be torn, so that we see ourselves as we really are.” Arthur Golden, Memoirs of a Geisha

“If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you think about it.”Mary Engelbreit

Can You Sell Yourself to You?

The implication seems to be that while physical appearance seems so

important, these days. Being attractive finally occurs more for the type of characteristics that we

practice (interior attitudes, confidence, and integrity) than how we look physically, (exterior beauty, clothing, etc).

Anyone who has lived for a while knows that in human relationships, your character or integrity is what makes relationships work. Integrity is what can be relied upon much more so than how a friend, spouse, partners, neighbor, employer, etc. looks.



It also seems to me that our inner attitudes and integrity, compassion, and confidence must first be

practiced on ourselves before it yields anything of substance. For instance, I

can set about to practice compassion toward others. If I do not practice

compassion toward myself first, then the compassion that I think I am

practicing toward others is finally just another exterior practice for others

to see—in hopes that I might impress someone. If I practice compassion on

myself first, then I begin to appreciate what real compassion is. Then, when I

am compassionate toward another, it comes from a very different place. It is

genuine. My compassion has integrity. The other person feels the difference,

and knows that there has been a genuine interchange between us. This is how I feel when I interact with someone.



Physical appearance cannot have that kind of effect on others. Remember, Virtue gives what physical appearance denies. Remember you are selling yourself and offering a solution to people problems.

Believe in yourself and love yourself. You are attractive!!
