Secrets Of The Richest People: WHAT ARE RICHES?

"Had I but plenty of money, money enough to spare,"  wrote Robert Browning. And money is the greatest attribute of riches. A universal desire, money is the materialization

of riches, the stuff that makes the rest possible.

            Are you looking for financial security? For retirement, for education or leisure? Riches are the overflowing abundance of material possessions - houses, cars, boats, furnishings - everything you ever wanted.

            Centuries ago, Horace wrote, "By right means, if you can, but by any means, make money."  For many people it is a path towards happiness, a cure-all for worry and peace of

mind.

            For others, riches come in the form of satisfaction and personal independence. Satisfaction comes from accomplishment in employment or attaining goals. It is that

feeling of contentment and confidence from a good task well done. Riches are closely linked with success. And with that comes fame and acknowledgment of position. Success might be

the feeling of well-being from the rewards of good effort. Or the enthusiasm and vitality triggered by recognition.

            "Success is how well I enjoy the minutes," said producer Norman Lear.

            Throughout history, the people who lived with riches often achieved them by hard work, diligence and a belief in themselves. For some people, it took courage, genius and

stamina.

            But for many others, it took nothing special but the desire to turn dreams into reality. Whether you want millions of dollars, recognition as an artist, or personal freedom, you have the ability to make your life as rich as you want.

            Think about what you most desire. It may not be hard cash, but what it can buy. Or it may be those feelings of inner satisfaction, from creating something beautiful or strong.

            You may want personal independence from the work week, or freedom to live anywhere you want. You may be looking for something meaningful and significant in life -

something other than things money can buy. Whatever your goals, and however difficult they seem to be to accomplish, you have the ability to become who you want. Take a look - can you see yourself surrounded by riches?

            Picture the world open and in front of you, ready to become the form of your dreams, ready to stage your desires. "Why then, the world's mine oyster," wrote Shakespeare, "which I with sword will open."

.

To your Success,

Ebi Jerry.

The Power of Success By Susanta Kumar Paul

Everyone craves for success that adds a sense of happiness to his or her life instantly. We are naturally optimistic, and love to relish the idea of being successful in everything we do in our lives. However, we cannot enjoy success easily as we need to go through much hardship to be successful in life. But, if we have the flavor of success we long for, it can make us ecstatically happy, leading us to the path of another success.

When years of failure sap us of our confidence and hopes for success look bleak, only a piece of news of our success in anything of our lives can hold us back from being depressed and frustrated. We can bounce back from our miserable condition that often pushes us to the mire of failure. In fact, success works as a tonic, boosting our ego and confidence. It also helps us restore our confidence and faith in ourselves. It often comes to us as a surprise, sweeping us completely over it. We often tend to develop a feeling of suspicion and uncertainty in us. Fear of failure grips us like wild fire. We get imprisoned by our negative outlook.

Sometimes our limitations set by ourselves make our lives motionless, goalless and directionless. In this case what we want earnestly is to experience a bit of success that is defined differently by different people.
When we are burdened with negative thoughts or obstacles, we constantly try to relieve ourselves from this poor condition. We make a plan to be successful in what we do, though it may not work out always.

However, we give up and collapse when our plan or goal falls flat. In fact, when our plan fails to live up to our expectation, we tend to find ourselves discouraged and disappointed. Being disheartened, we throw ourselves into the spate of frustration. However, we try to do everything we can to pursue the path of success. We do not feel relieved and relaxed until we satisfy ourselves with happy news.

Reaching to the desired goal of your life is a matter of great success for you. It makes you amazingly resilient and determined to rely on your ability and confidence for dealing with failure in a brave manner. It also assures you of a good life style, controlling your overflowing emotional instability. After all, whatever you do, whatever you think, whatever you plan, you feel yourself larger than life when you have success in life.

 

To Your Success,

Jerry.

It's the most important attribute we develop throughout our life. You can put yourself in plenty of success if you go on with everything you do, displaying an air of confidence.

Those who are confident show a positive and assertive outlook towards life, and can turn to everyone for emotional or mental support. It's something that ignites the light of success for those who face the challenges of life with confidence.

During my university days, I'd a friend who was not very studious by nature. He didn't give up though he wasn't in the habit of studying a lot. However, he treaded the uncommon path in which satisfactory result stemmed from confidence to a great extent. Since he didn't believe in the common path of pursuing education and making academic result only by studying a lot, he utilized his dormant talent, developed his potentialities, upholding his confidence incredibly. He didn't feel weary though he failed to show off his power of bookish knowledge. He was able to exert his strong command in the whole class with the answer of every question asked by the teachers.It seemed that he was the only student whose main focus was on study. He made an all-out effort to answer any question with confidence; no matter how irrelevant and incorrect his answer was. Without bothering about his setback, he excelled himself in terms of ingenuity and agility. Though his grammatical mistakes, lack of appropriateness, lack of clarity and some lapses associated with pronunciation and expression let him down, he dealt with them smartly and overcame them as well. However, the teachers started appreciating his answers profusely, which raised his confidence at the apex. All teachers, meanwhile, rested their confidence on him and looked on him in the hope of getting any kind of feedback they wished to have in the classroom.My friend ended up being the focus of the class and became a great favorite with the teachers as well.

Ultimately, he proved himself to be a talented and assiduous student who managed to go a long way, fulfilling his cherished dream of making outstanding academic feat by handling and upholding his unwavering confidence smartly and convincingly.

To Your Success,
Jerry

Creating a Magnetic Attraction For Prosperity

From the very beginning there have always been certain people who seem to have the good life of everything anyone could want, while others can't get anything; so what is it that actually makes the difference between these two classes of people? It all comes down to the ability to attract prosperity.

What everyone needs to recognize is that each one of us are continually attracting something. For someone who is poor, then misfortune has become a way of life. However, if you're poor, then the likelihood is strong that you are baffled as to how you brought this upon yourself. The good news is that the exact same devices are employed to attract prosperity as that of attracting poverty.

 

 It can be unpleasant, but you have to totally admit that you've caused your existing condition; you have to acknowledge this; you have to grasp it. You might have a few adverse emotions, but they will only be short-lived. The focal point is to persuade yourself that you are to blame for your present situation.

When you finally acknowledge your obligation to your current situation, you'll be able to turn it around and start attracting prosperity. The manner in which you achieve that is by simply adjusting your ideals.

"Wait a minute! I am already concerned about escaping this mess. I'm constantly focused on getting out of the hole, where I can take on a better life." Sound familiar? If this is the case, then you have isolated a simple, but critical error in your reasoning.

You will achieve what you focus on, but your mind will center on the main issue instead of any condition you might place on it. And so, while you are concentrating about "not being in this mess" your subconscious disregards the word "not" because it is conditional. Instead, it zeros in on "this mess" and that's what it inevitably attracts


When you finally realize how this works, you can start planning exactly what you want in preference to what you can't get. So rather than "getting out of this mess" you begin to think about "living in a beautiful home."
This is just a brief case, however there's another crucial stage at attracting prosperity, and that's at being specific. The more specific you tend to be; the further believable it will be to your subconscious mind. Why is that of such concern? Because once your subconscious has confirmed something as true, it will accept it as a part of reality and do everything to make it happen.

Apart from concentrating on what you need and being specific, you also have to build up strong emotion to reinforce your thoughts. If you've ever seen yourself doing certain things with an emotional flare, even though your common sense was telling you to stop, then you can realize how profound emotions can be. The secret to creating magnetism that gravitates toward prosperity is to put the power of those emotions into action and make them work for you.

You can have your dreams unfold before you. Attracting prosperity is a simple issue of following the right steps to bring it to reality. It takes practice, but the rewards make it all worthwhile once you have grasped your goals.

To Your Success,

Jerry

Cont...25 Tips Toward Boosting Your Confidence And Self esteem...tip 18-25

Welcome back friends....

18. “Happy Foods”:

Happy foods, such as chocolate, strawberries, lemons, ice-cream etc will increase the serotonin levels in your brain, leading to an increased feeling of happiness.

Feeling happy is a natural confidence boost. So go on, enjoy your food! (in moderation, of course).

19. Face Your Fear:

Is there something you are afraid of? Face it full on. Doing something scary and overcoming the fear is a fantastic way to boost your confidence. So go on, jump out of that plane (with a parachute of course), drive that car, speak in front of a large crowd, ask for a promotion, or whatever it is that scares you. You'll feel absolutely brilliant once it’s done.

20. Willpower:

Create a goal that you really want to reach. Possibly something like weight loss before a certain time, giving up smoking or having a certain amount of money in the bank within so many months etc. Take baby steps, and use your willpower until you succeed at reaching your goal.

It will be really hard, as will power can be very elusive at times, but keep going and don't give up. Once you have reached that first goal by using your willpower you will have the confidence to create new goals AND reach them.
 
 21. Ask questions:

Any time you find yourself worrying about something you haven’t done, or something you think you should have done, ask yourself positive questions. Instead of thinking “I’m terrible for missing my friend’s birthday” think “What can I do to make my friend feel special?”

Or, instead of “Why can’t I ever seem to do things on time?” change it to “What can I change to better manage my time” Creating positive questions will release the negative energies which have a tendency to pull down your self confidence.

22. Learn:

Accept that not everything works out the way we plan it. Decide to accept any mistakes and rejections as part of a learning curve that we all need to go through.

Without mistakes, you can’t learn from your own experiences. Remember, experience builds confidence, so always learn as much as you can.

23. List:
Write a list of every single thing you're good at, anything from clipping the dog’s toenails to putting up a shelf. Take the time to sit and actually think about what you ARE good at and add them all to the list. You'll be surprised at how many things you end up jotting down, no matter how minor or trivial they may seem at the time.

Whenever you have a spare 5 minutes, or if you're feeling a little low, take the list out of your pocket and read it. This is a great little way to give yourself a nice confidence boost.

24: Help out:

There are lots of ways to help others, and feeling useful and helpful are great ways of building your confidence. Just make sure you do things because you WANT to do them. You could call a good friend who may be down at the moment-even take them out for coffee, you will brighten both your days, or you could possibly help out at an old folks home or similar. Knowing that people appreciate your help will boost your confidence for sure.

25: Show the way:

Think of the one thing you do best of all. Think long and hard about this one. Thought of something? Now, find a discussion group or similar related to that topic and spread your wisdom by answering questions, offering advice or help to anybody needing it. If you can’t find a group, you could even start one yourself.
People will look up to you and that will give you all the more reason to feel confident about yourself.

To your success,
Jerry

Cont...25 Tips Toward Boosting Your Confidence And Self esteem...tip 9-17

welcome back...

9. Total Honesty:

Be totally honest with yourself at all times. If there’s something you don't like, admit it. If there’s something you don’t want to do “right now” and it isn’t necessary for health and safety reasons then just don’t do it until you feel like it.

Same goes for the positive aspects. If there’s something you want to do, and it’s not hurting anybody, then go ahead and do it. If you start feeling great about yourself for no apparent reason admit it and enjoy the feeling.

10. Responsibility
Take full responsibility for your own actions. Don't shove the blame for anything over onto someone or something else. We all make choices in our lives, and once we take responsibility for those choices we tend to choose better for ourselves.

Once we start to choose better, we feel better and things start falling into place. On the other hand, don't take over someone else’s responsibilities just because you feel “you have to”.

11. Pretend:

If you feel unsafe, unsure or nervous then go inside yourself and pretend you’re a hot-shot lawyer, actor, actress, singer or whatever you need to be.

Make believe you’re presenting yourself as that person would until you feel better. Trust me, you WILL feel better, and eventually have no need to be anything but yourself.

12. Keep Trying:
 
If you’re trying to do something but don't get it right first time round, then try again, and again, and again, constantly learning from your mistakes until you get it right. When you finally DO get it right, you’ll feel wonderful about it.

13. Credit where credit is due:
 
If you’ve done something really good, and people compliment you on it, accept the compliments with thanks! Understand that they’re complimenting because they really ARE impressed with what you’ve done.

Believe in you and give yourself a pat on the back. (Although physically it would probably be easier to just give yourself a round of applause).

14. Stand Tall:

Standing up straight will ALWAYS make you feel better about yourself than slouching does. Stand with your feet slightly apart, suck in your tummy and behind, broaden your shoulders and straighten your neck. It’s an amazingly quick confidence boost.

15. Say Hello:

Make it a rule to say hi to at least one person you don't know EVERY day. Give them the smile you flash at yourself in the mirror, the biggest and best one you can find. They’ll smile back automatically, and they’ll walk away with a little extra confidence boost thanks to you.

People look their best when they smile, and they also feel better by smiling too! This ultimately means you get a confidence boost too, for making someone else feel good about themselves.

16. Never Say Never....Ever:

If you think something can’t be done, then you'll end up proving yourself right eventually. So never say never, just keep plugging along until it works for you.

If other people are telling you it can’t be done, you're going to feel such immense satisfaction at actually doing it that your confidence will soar.

17. Get Active:

Don't sit around the house just doing nothing. Get up, go out, cycling, walking, exercising, anything that might invigorate your brain. A lively brain full of thoughts will help you gain confidence.

To your success,
Jerry.
