Living in The No Excuse Zone

Living in The No Excuse Zone
“The best job goes to the person who can get it done
without passing the buck.”
Napoleon Hill 1883 -1970, American Author,
Motivational Speaker  

As I see it . . . . . . . .
Living in the no excuse zone

The life that you make for yourself . . . . is a life that you made through your actions.

You become a mirror image of your actions. People will judge you by your actions . . . . and the results of what you achieve. People want action . . . . and results . . . . they don’t want excuses.

Your actions will either move you forward . . . . and closer to achieving your goals. Or your actions will have a negative effect on you. . . . and move you in the opposite direction,  moving your goals out of your reach.

When things are moving in the wrong direction you have to reverse the slide. Adjust your activities . . . . your thinking . . . . and your actions to get you back on the right track and moving in the right direction.

You are either going in the right direction moving your closer to achieving your goals . . . . or in the wrong direction taking farther away from success.

Operating in neutral gives you a false sense of security because there is no neutral on the success journey. When you’re in neutral you’re not holding steady or moving forward at a slower pace. In reality operating in neutral creates a backwards slid that will accelerate . . . . and you will move away from success at an accelerated pace.

Making excuses about a condition compounds the situation . . . . and makes it worst . . . . and increasingly more difficult to deal with. 
Referrals . . . . new business . . . . opportunities . . . . and success go to the person that has demonstrated their value . . . . and have created the reputation through their actions.

Your future success is found in the possible zone . . . . where if you can imagine it you can achieve it.

Live you’re live through positive actions . . . . and live your life in the no excuse zone. Live your life . . . . and focus on solutions and productive activities.

Lasting success is found in . . . . living in the no excuse zone.

Be Persistent in Your Actions


Be Persistent in Your Actions
“The majority of men meet with failure because of their
lack of persistence in creating new plans
to take the place of those which fail.”
Napoleon Hill, Self-Help Author,
Motivational Speaker 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Be Persistent in your actions 

Have a plan in place before you start . . . . and take the actions on your plan that will help you to achieve successful results.

One of the keys to a good action plan is to have the ability to adjust . . . . and to change the things that are not working. Make the adjustments that are necessary to keep to on track . . . . and moving in the direction of your goals.

Remain focused on the big picture . . . . and in achieving your goals. Be flexible in your action . . . . but strong in staying the course.

Keep moving forward in the direction of your goals. Adjust or remove what’s not working . . . . and replace your actions with new and more productive activities that will keep you moving in the right direction.

Be persistent in your actions . . . . adjust when it’s needed . . . . and stay on course. Always keep your sights on achieving your goals . . . . and moving in the right direction.

A Combination of Consistent and Focused Effort


A Combination of Consistent and Focused Effort
“Patience, persistence and perspiration
make an unbeatable combination for success.”
Napoleon Hill 1883 - 1970, Motivational Author and Speaker

   
As I see it. . . . . . . .

A combination of consistent and focused effort

Success is not an isolated event . . . .  Success is the result of a consistent and focused effort in the direction of achieving your objectives.

To achieve your objectives you have to know what you want to achieve. How you’re going to achieve them . . . . and the price that you’re willing to pay to achieve the desired results. Once your objectives become crystal clear in your thinking  . . . . reduce your objectives into writing and create your goals for your success journey.

Written goals create a measureable path to follow on your success journey. Your goals will give you clearly marked directional signs to keep you on track, along with your action plan will keep you on purpose.  

Have patience in your success journey as success is not an overnight endeavor. Anything worthwhile has an element of time . . . . and effort to achieve the desired results.

Your success journey will require persistence . . . .

Your path to success takes on many dimensions. At times you’ll be traveling on expressway. At others time you’ll be bogged down on a muddy road where it seems that you’re not making any progress.

When we get bogged down you have to remain focused on your goals and remain persistence in achieving them.

Anything worth while is worth working for . . . .

At times you will have to work smarter to achieve the results and at other times you will have to roll up your sleeves and work harder. At times you’ll find that perspiration may be just what’s needed to put you over the top.

An unbeatable combination for success is . . . . success is not an event and there is no one single event or single effort that makes a person a success. It’s a combination of consistent and focused effort in the direction of our goals that creates success.

Recurring Thoughts

Recurring Thoughts
Any idea, plan, or purpose may be placed in
the mind through repetitive of thought.”

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Recurring thoughts  

What you continually think about becomes an embedded thought . . . . in your sub-conscience mind.

The thoughts are continuously repeated in your sub-conscience mind until . . . . they are on automatic replay. The interesting part is they are continually repeating themselves over and over again . . . . in your self-conscience mind without conscience thought.

The thoughts that become are recurring in your mind will start to dominate your thinking . . . . and become the driving force in your actions. You will mentally and physically move in the direction of your recurring thoughts.

Life is a Pattern of Behavior


Motivational Power Quote

 Life is a Pattern of Behavior
“Seldom can one pattern of behavior
be eliminated without replacing it with another.”
Napoleon Hill 1883 - 1970, Author and Motivational Speaker


As I see it. . . . . . . .

Life is a pattern of behavior

We comb our hair the same way every day without thought.

We put our shoes on the same way; the same foot first without thinking about it.

Everyday we put our shirt or jacket on exactly the same way.

Everything we do in our life is a pattern. Our patterns fall within our comfort zone and are acted out in our subconscious mind out without a conscious thought.

There are behaviors that are contributing to a productive life and some behaviors that need to remove from our lives.

The best way to change a pattern is to replace it with a new pattern of behavior. To change a behavior we have to want to change the behavior and be determined to make the change.

It takes thirty days to change a behavior. There will have to be a commitment to change and the efforts to permanently effect the change to a behavior.

Identify the pattern of behavior that you want to change, now identify a pattern that you will replace it with.

Make the commitment to make the pattern change is the start your pattern of behavior change. Work on the change everyday until it becomes comfortable and give it time to take root.

Life is a pattern of behavior and we have the power to change out behavior or reinforce a behavior.

because your words and influence
will plant the seeds of either success or failure
in the mind of another.”

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Think before you speak

The words you speak will be a direct refection of who you are as a person and creates your personal power to influence others. Your words will have the capacity to influence the people that you come in contact with.

Your words can be the stimulus for a person to take action or give them direction on a path the follow.

Words of encouragement can make a difference in a person’s life. We can influence the person to believe in themselves and help to propel them to greater heights. Or we can have a negative influence on another person that offers no help or hope.

Your words affect and influence your success or failure.

You continually engage is self-talk and your words have a major impact on your thinking and your actions.

Keep your thoughts positive and your thoughts will have a positive influence on the direction you take on your success journey. One that will lead to success or one that will move us into the direction of failure.
