I changed virtually everything in my life from my emotions to my finances
from my confidence to my physical health how did I do it well I use what I call
the ultimate success formula and here's what it is it has four steps if you want
to create the success in your life it always comes back to this you can use
whatever technology you want to reprogram yourself but these are the
four steps for success step number one you've got to know your outcome in any
situation in life you got to decide right now what do I want out of this
situation in my life the more clear you are on what you want the more you
empower your brain to come up with answers there's an old phrase that may
have been overused but I think it's pretty accurate it says clarity is power
you must get focused on what you want and in this tape program we have a
goal-setting workshop that's going to help you to get precisely clear and what
you want in your life mentally emotionally socially spiritually
intellectually so that you have something that's the driving force
behind your behavior how can you use this first formula to make a difference
in your life right now how could just getting clear and knowing your outcome
help you well I believe when you know your outcome you've empowered yourself I
mean let's say for example you're in the middle of an argument and have you ever
gotten caught up in an argument we're so caught up in it that you forgot what
you're even arguing for but you knew you had to win I know I've been there see if
in the middle of that argument you were to ask the question hey what's my
outcome in this situation you're gonna probably find out your outcome is not to
argue the outcome you want is to resolve something when you get focused on what
you really want out of a situation you'll empower your brain to use its
resources to produce results right now so get into that habit the habit of
asking yourself what's my outcome and throughout these thirty days I'm gonna
constantly ask you how can you use this what I just said what's useful about
that for your life what is your outcome and applying this in your own life it's
critical to continually focus on your target even if you're just going to buy
to visit with a friend on the way over to see a friend ask yourself what's my
outcome maybe the answer is well just have fun or to make my friend feel
really appreciated and loved now if you know that your outcome your
chances of having more fun or making your friend feel loved go up a thousand
percent versus if you just go over and hang out and wonder why you're bored now
I'm not saying you have to be so goal-oriented that every minute you're
trying to achieve something I'm just saying it's useful to let your brain
know the direction that you're heading and everyone I know who succeeded had to
start with getting clear on exactly what they wanted here's step to the ultimate
success for him by the way step one I did I decided what I wanted physically
financially emotionally in my business I looked at everything spiritually and
once I knew I had the first stage of my personal power
step two - tapping your power is you got to use it that is you've got to get
yourself to take action and move towards the achievement of your goals now what
most people tell me is but I don't know what to do I don't know I never ever
what if I try it it doesn't work all I can say Dee is this if you try it it
doesn't work you got an education you're better off than where you were before
because you now know what doesn't work and you'll probably make a distinction
or two that'll help you succeed even more most people life have no idea what
they want but worse a few people know what they want but they don't do
anything about it they just sit around a hope or say
someday honey we'll do this someday is now someday is here I remember hearing a
phrase years ago that said the road to some day leads to a town of nowhere and
someplace you don't want to end up in so you got to get yourself to take action
how do you do that you decide I hear people all the time
saying well gosh how do I change my life and my answer is decide to make a
decision right now you're not willing to settle for anything less than you can be
that you're not willing to live the way you're living right now no matter how
good it may seem that you're gonna push yourself to the next level demanding
more from yourself than anybody else could possibly expect is true power
and all it takes is deciding remember the word decision in its original Latin
root means to cut off from when you decide you cut off from any other
possibility the biggest trap that keeps people from taking action is their fear
their fear of failure their fear of success their fear of rejection their
fear of pain and fear of the unknown the only way to deal with fear is face
it look at Ida and take action in spite of it I'm sure
you've probably heard of some of the seminars I do in which we teach people
how to break through their fears and take action and at the end of the
seminar they get a chance to use what they've learned to overcome a major fear
and literally walk through fire between 800 and 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit now a
lot of people think it's crazy but why would you do a thing like that well it's
not to teach people new picnic skills and it's not mind over matter right now
you could walk through fire I'm not encouraging you to make sure you hear me
but you could it's absolutely possible you don't need me to do it you could
also be up at 6 o'clock a.m. with total passion for living you could also have
the person of your dreams be in your life right now you could also be earning
what you're worth you can also have more influence on your children than
virtually anyone else but few people do it's not what we can do in life that
makes the difference it's what we will do and we don't follow through because
we don't know what we want oftentimes and when we know we're afraid to take
action listen fear can service fear isn't all bad say it'll make us pay
attention as long as fear is a counselor and not a jailer make sure that you
listen to your fear make some more distinctions and then get yourself to
take action in spite of it and I gotta tell you breaking through fear is like
anything else it's like a muscle in the beginning if you try and lift a heavy
weight boy you might say gosh I can't do this but if you start small and you
build every single day for like 30 days for example then what's gonna happen is
every day you get a little stronger and pretty soon it becomes effortless to do
what used to feel like it was impossible it's time for you to develop the muscle
of making decisions quickly and easily and following through on them here's the
third key element to the ultimate success formula once you know what you
want and you get yourself to take action do your actions always work of course
not most people might fail much more often they succeed in fact the most
successful people are the most successful people because they've failed
more than anybody else I mean think about it think about it in baseball in
baseball a Hall of Famer someone who is the best in the world at what they do in
the area of baseball they fail seven times out of ten how'd you like to have
a life like that bottom line is to get in the Hall of Fame they only succeed
about 30 percent of the time they failed more
than 70 percent of the time and you know what that's how life is - hey listen and
doing this taping with you and talking to you personally I may not sound
elegant all the time cuz I don't care what I want to do is get across to you I
want you to get the message in your gut that's what matters me if I say
something it doesn't work I just move on to something else and I ask you to try
the same thing in life most people life out of their fear of failure don't try
anything at all that's ultimate failure you've got to get yourself to take
action you got to get yourself to follow through and you've got to be willing to
notice whether it's working or not that's step 3 notice what you're getting
from your actions in other words you know what you want you got yourself to
take action now notice isn't working am I getting closer to my goal or further
away don't kid yourself or just keep taking action because after all you work
so hard to do it this way I might as well keep on doing it so you don't want
to get locked in a tunnel vision remember flexibility is power what
you've got to do those know what you're getting I mean a standard example is
have you ever had somebody come up and talk to you and they're going on and on
and on and you're trying to be very polite and they mistake you're being
polite there's a way to speed up this formula and that way is this instead of
just knowing what you want and taking random actions you can use what I call
role modeling to accelerate the pace of your success what I did is I said okay
what do I want I'm 38 pounds overweight I want to lose this weight I want to be
38 pounds lighter and I want to have more energy I want to feel more vibrant
in my life you can tell by my energy level that I'm a real low energy person
now compared to I was that seriously I decided what I wanted and then what I
did is I said okay I got to take action but what action should I take I didn't
know I tried dining a zillion times and you know what it would work I would lose
weight and then I gained it right back again and I'd lose weight and gain it
back again so what I decided to do is instead of just taking some actions and
sooner or later figuring it out I decided to use a role model I said let
me find someone who's already getting the results that I want
let me find out what that person is doing and do the same things that is I
believe that success leaves clues that if people succeed it's because they're
doing certain things over and over and over again
and if we do the same kinds of things if we plant the same kinds of seeds we're
gonna reap the same kinds of rewards regardless of our age or a background or
religion or our color or agender none of that matters what matters is the law
works for everyone and if you apply it it'll work but you got to know what to
do and so this program is the result of me going out and modeling people that
are successful that is instead of reinventing the wheel and having you and
I keep doing trial and error on everything I said hey let me find
something is already in the results find out what they do do the same things get
the same results speed up time you gotta remember knowledge is not power
knowledge is potential power I mean don't you know someone who knows what
they should do with their life knows they should change your life knows how
they can change their life and they still don't do it you know somebody like
that may be intimately like maybe you for example at times then the bottom
line is knowledge is not enough we got to get ourselves to follow through so
what did I do I found somebody who had been overweight
like me had become thin and stayed thin for years I found out what this person
did and I did the same things I'm gonna teach you in this program what to do to
do that it wasn't just dieting that's not enough as a result of following
through and taking the same actions I lost 30 pounds in 30 days I lost all 38
pounds in about 7 weeks and I haven't gone back and the reason is I didn't
just change my diet I learned to mentally condition myself to feel
differently about certain foods I was addicted to so I no longer had a desire
for them the things that used to push me over the edge I did the same thing in
the area of relationships I found a man who had the woman of my dreams and I
hope dogged him and said hey how did you attract this woman and I talked to her
and said why do you like this guy you know why are you in a relationship with
him and I began to find out certain things he did that made that
relationship work and I start applying some of the same things and I did the
same thing financially I went from a place where I had no confidence to
myself emotionally feeling depressed to a place of total strength and
financially I mean a measurable change to say the least I was broke living in
my 400 square foot bachelor apartment what happened in less than 12 months I
moved my 1,200 square foot apartment major progress at the time 3 times
bigger to about 4 months later I moved to a
10,000 square foot cash literally a castle built in 1925 with a
big three-story turret overlooking the crashing waves of Del Mar California I
don't tell you this to impress you I tell it to impress upon you how quickly
you can make changes in your life if you learn to master this incredible computer
between your ears called your brain that's we're gonna study we're gonna
study neurosciences the sciences of success conditioning that's what this
whole program is about and we're gonna do a little piece at a time so it's
simple if you will do that the culmination of the 30 days you will find
you've gone on a mental diet that'll change your life forever if success is
really this simple if you could go from being where I was years ago broke in
every sense of the word emotionally broke physically broke socially broke
and financially broke to wealthy in all those areas meeting my dreams becoming a
millionaire in less than 12 months if that's really possible if it's really as
simple as using your personal power and being flexible in your approach and
modeling those successful people if it's really that simple how come everybody
doesn't do this that's a good question a lot of things in life are really simple
but people don't apply them cuz they get caught up in day to day stuff like well
you know I've got to pay my bills I get caught up in making that living instead
of designing the life and they come to the end of their life and find out they
lived only 1/10 of it not because they weren't intelligent simply because they
didn't get clear about what they wanted they didn't get themselves to
consistently take action and develop that decision-making massive action
muscle in their emotional body they didn't vary their behaviors and now
they're stuck it's not a place I think you want to be otherwise you wouldn't
invested in this program and you wouldn't be taking the time to listen
now so what I'm asking to do is break through those fears that stop you and
you know the biggest one that comes up again and again we've already mentioned
it is failure I want you to know that failure can be your best friend I mean
think about it the greatest successes in the world are people who often have so
much pain from a failure that drove them to much greater success did you know
those little 3m stickers for example those ones that you see that you can put
there I think they're called post-it notes you can ride on them and put them
on something and take it right off instantly do you know that was a result
of a massive failure by the chemist he was working at the time to create an
heesu that would last forever something that
you could never pry things apart with and as a result he came up with a stuff
that didn't work at all but he was smart enough to say hey what can I use this
for how can I use this supposed failure and he turned it into a multi-million
dollar business Lee Iacocca most people would agree is one of the more
successful role models in our country now I got a question for you how can be
so successful cuz he's a wonder kid well yeah you could say that he worked for a
company called Ford Motor Company and he worked his way through the ranks right
up to the top worked his tail off was driven what really marked him his
ability to get people to take action his personal power he developed skill
because he was willing to try almost anything he wouldn't accept no for an
answer but you know what he had a little run-in with a guy by the name of Ford
and he fired him and it burned him pretty good now I got a question for you
do you think when this company named Chrysler came by and they look like for
sure there was no way they could be turned around do you think if he hadn't
been fired by Ford that he would have taken it he might say oh of course he
would that's the way Lee is well I don't know according to his wife she said at
the time he said honey I don't think anybody could turn this thing around she
said boy well I bet mr. Ford will be real happy to hear that that's all it
took he was so angry from the pain and failure of his past quote unquote
failure that he was gonna show him that it wasn't his failure that mr. Ford made
the mistake another companies mentioned IBM it all started because a guy by the
name of Tom Watson who worked for a competing company called NCR got fired
by the CEO there also he got so mad he said I'm gonna develop a company that
will dwarf your someday see welcome frustration I got to tell you something
when I get frustrated I've learned to get excited I've learned to literally
condition myself so that frustration greats excitement you know why because
I'm frustrated I know I'm about to have a breakthrough it means my brain is
searching if I get confused about some things that are going I'll never learn
this my response to that is hey I'm about to learn something because my
brain is searching for a new answer and if it keeps searching it's gonna come up
with one I believe the emotions that many of us
consider negative like frustration and rejection and pain can be our greatest
friends because they can drive us to success you know what I think one of the
things that happens for a lot of people when they get successful is they get
superstitious like they worked so hard for the success
and they now finally have it so all of a sudden they don't change they don't bury
their baby they kind of like want to stay the way things are they get
incredibly conservative and they miss out on the juice of life stay out of the
trap listen when people succeed they tend to party when they fail they tend
to ponder now the pondering many times we create our greatest successes in life
just remember it's impossible to fail if you try something and it doesn't work
just try something else and learn something from what you just did as long
as you learn something you've succeeded something else I want to remind you of
as well and that is sometimes people say well gosh I'm gonna do these exercises I
know I'm gonna be better physically and emotionally and psychologically I don't
feel more confident but I want to work on my career I want to take my business
next level I want a business program I want to tell you what personal power is
one of the most powerful business programs because it deals with the
source of all your business which is you when you're in better shape suddenly you
negotiate more effectively when you're in better shape your creativity flows
when you're in better shape you're a better manager of people that's why if
you saw the infomercial which is how I assume you got to this program then you
saw people like for example Bill Farley of Farley industries endorsing this
program saying is one of the best business programs they ever went through
well that's because Bill became a billionaire before the age of 40 all by
using these personal power type of techniques so I want you know this is
very business oriented or a Bill Nicholson it was a turnaround expert
from major corporations you know in the early 80s he took on a major corporation
that was losing a million dollars a day and turned it around so that within four
years it was doing more than four billion dollars in revenue and the
highest net returns of the history of the company so I want you to know that
these people endorse is because it works so if you're a little bit skeptical I
understand that but understand changing yourself is the first place to change in
your career and changing your business right now as this tape ends I want you
to do your first assignment really simple
remember I told you the way to build a muscle so that you're really strong it
starts small and build so we're gonna start with something really simple I
want you to think of two actions you've been putting off two things that you
should do two things that you need to do but you keep putting it off maybe it's a
phone call or two maybe it's somebody you've had
poor communication with and you need to clean it up but you're not doing it
maybe it's just going in the house and cleaning it up right now maybe it's some
kind of report you need to do I don't know what it is but right now I want you
to think of what are two actions you've been putting off that if you were to
take them now it would increase the quality of your life either simply will
just increase the quality of your self-esteem because you feel good
because you actually followed through or maybe even more powerfully what are two
decisions or two actions you could take right now that would immediately change
the quality of your life maybe it's to stop smoking maybe it's to eliminate
certain kinds of food but if you were gonna do something right now that was
gonna change your life what are those two actions and what I want you to do is
decide remember to decide means to cut off any other possibility to resolve
once and for all this is it there's tremendous power in that start with
something small if you want and then build but right now right down to
decisions you've made and then take action on them immediately I mean right
now I mean even before I finish talking here stop the day pick up the phone and
make that call you've been waiting for do not put it off another minute I don't
care what it takes there's power and momentum I'm a big
believer that once you set a goal once you make a decision you should
immediately in that moment do something to start making progress towards it that
way you can't cop out later on or get caught up or lose your momentum so
please do it now and I know not all things can be done right now so maybe
it's something you have to do tomorrow morning but whatever you're gonna do
make the decision and then commit to follow-through and then check in
tomorrow cuz this is the first step to grabbing your personal power and
remember there's no way to fail you might say well gosh what if I do this
and it doesn't work what if I try this and it doesn't happen hey what if I
screw up then screw up big go for it do a big screw up because then you'll learn
something hey remember success in life is the
result of good judgment good judgment is usually the result of experience
experience is usually the result of bad judgment so if you got some bad judgment
it doesn't work out you'll learn something it'll make you more successful
in the future just go for it don't be afraid make it happen you may
say well it's such a little thing to do I'll do it later if it's little then do
it now okay I'm on your side hey what I'm
trying to be here for you as a good coach you know I don't care how
successful you are we all need a coach
you
