The Rhino in Cow Skin

I’ve heard this incredible story a few times over the years. I’m not sure where it generated from, but I must share it.

This story reminded me of the typical office pool or the rat race in general. People stuck in a rut, doing the same thing everyday. I had a good look at myself and saw that I was meant for a better life style. I found my courage and charged.

Here’s the story….

There’s nothing usual about a herd of cows grazing a fenced in field. Everyday, the same old, same old.

Until, one day, one of the cows happened to see something extraordinary as he was taking a drink of water from the pond located on the field. He saw his reflection. He looked up and the other cows and then back again at the pond. This cow did not see a cow in his reflection. He saw a tough skinned, long horned, powerful Rhino.

His newly found identity had given him courage. He knew that he was different and didn’t belong in this field. He was destine for something better.

He glanced at the fence that was about 100 yards away from where he drank the water, looked around and then, in an instant, began to charge towards the fence that bound the herd of cows to the boring field where they existed as mindless animals.

As he charged, the rest of herd began to shout at him to stop and not to go beyond the fence into the unknown. The Rhino would not listen to his companions and plowed right through the fence. He wasn’t worried about what the others thought of him or facing the unknown. All he could think about was achieving his goal of becoming his true self.

He kept charging through high grass, corn fields and into a forest. This did not even slow him down. The forest was filled with rocks, trees and hills, but he pushed himself as hard as he could. He took on each challenge with wonder and excitement, overcoming them one by one.

Finally, he made it through the obstacles that he faced and found himself in a clearing at the top of hill. He took a moment and looked back at the cow field.

Can you guess what he saw?

Not a herd of cows but a herd of Rhinos bunched at the opening in the fence. Every single on of them was a Rhino dressed in cows’ skin. They too were tough skinned, long horned and powerful. If only they could see themselves as they truly are and make their own path to the clearing on the top of hill, forming an extremely powerful new team.

I’ve seen myself as the Rhino and have broken free from the fenced in field. I’m tackling my obstacles on a daily bases. There will always be challenges. I welcome these because they are what make me even stronger in my internet marketing business and for my team of Rhinos. Our growth is endless.

Find the Rhino in yourself. Discover the courage within you to break free and charge. Take action today.

There is plenty of room at the top of the hill. I’ll save you a spot.

Going for the Gold with Your Internet Marketing Business?

Have you ever wondered how an Olympic athlete wins the Gold? Go for the Gold! Internet Marketing TrainingIt’s not a huge secret but it’s a powerful one.

First of all, it does take years of training and dedication in their chosen sport.
Second, they must be focused and eliminate distractions.
Third, and most important, is the desire and faith.

Of course, these sports are extremely physical but mindset is also important. Without the focus, desire, determination and faith, they are lost and have no chance of winning the bronze, silver and ultimately, the gold.

The winners actually visualize themselves standing on the podium with their country’s flag and national anthem playing in the background. Not everyone understands the true meaning of faith. Described in the dictionary, faith means trust, belief, belief without proof, religion, promise, loyalty, constancy. These descriptions must be embedded into your subconscious mind in order for you to have true faith.

Faith alone doesn’t cut it either. You must also have emotion attached to your faith. Without the emotion, faith can fade away. Napoleon Hill, the author of Think and Grow Rich, states that thoughts which are mixed with any of the feelings or emotions constitute a magnetic force which attracts, from the vibrations of the ether (forces of the universe), other similar or related thoughts.

Have you wanted or believed in something so badly that it was all you could think about? You dreamt, ate, walked, talked about it consistently?
This is what you should be feeling about your Internet Marketing Business.

You must have the faith and emotion in order for your visions to come true. Take a pen a paper and write down these five definite and practical steps.

1. Think of the exact amount of money you desire. Don’t just say to yourself that you want make lots of money. Come up with a fixed amount and write it down.
2. Figure out what you intent to give in return for your riches. This would a product or service. You can’t get something for nothing.
3. Pick a date that you intend to achieve this goal. Without a fixed date in writing, your goal is just a dream and may never be accomplished without a deadline.
4. Lay out a plan to carry out your desire. Start doing things immediately, even if you are ready or not. Start taking action.
5. Read your written statement two or three time a day. Doing so will put these steps into your subconscious mind and your gold will become a reality. Working on your personal development daily is key to your golden success.

Let’s not forget that you must also make sacrifices in your everyday life to get the gold. Just like the champion athletes have scheduled training sessions, get plenty of rest, stay healthy, and cut out all distraction to stay focused.

Only you know what you must cut out to make time to work on your internet marketing business. Get rid of distractions, such and the television and phone. Also, set a definite daily schedule listing your tasks, time to spend on them and stick you it. If you have other distractions in your home, such as family, let them know that you are busy so you can concentrate on your business tasks. If you have pets, lock them out of your office space.

Now you are ready to start implementing your steps and take your internet marketing business to the gold. Get on the podium with Internet Marketing Skill

I’ll be cheering you on when I see you standing on that podium.

Don’t Make a New Year’s Resolution…Make it a Revolution!

Well, it’s here….2010! This is the time that the world is making New Year’s resolutions. What is a New Years Resolution?
The problem with doing this is that most of us set the standards too high.
Some goals are truly impossible to reach.

Definition of resolution is resolving, firmness, purpose or thing resolved upon, decision of court, vote or assembly.

Most resolutions are made to loose weight, exercise more, eat healthier or even make more money and become a successful entrepreneur.

All of these are good and profound; however, if the bar is set too high, we find it overwhelming, unreachable and what were good intensions diminish. We begin to have thoughts of our goals being the impossible. We then quit and go back to the way we were, even worse than before sometimes.

Bad habits come back, lying back down on the couch while television becomes our way of life (can’t miss that show, Homer Simpson's failed New Years Resolution
therefore I can’t go for that walk or go to the gym), unhealthy snacks, and we stop focusing on our businesses ending
in other venture that doesn’t work.

What I have done instead of a New Years Resolution is set myself to be a New Years Revolution.

Definition of revolution is great change, complete rotation, turning or spinning around, take over.

I am now a Turn Around Specialist. I am taking action to change my life habits, without setting an unrealistic goal. I am eating healthier, the weight will come off without even thinking about it. I am exercising more, even my dog is getting more out of that, making my muscles, lungs and heart stronger, giving me more energy and preventing diseases. I want to be around for the ones who love me.

Key to a Successful 2010 Even improving the financial and quality of my life are in motion. I am seeking knowledge to what I don’t know. You never know what you don’t know until you find it. Get it? I am focused, determined and I have a decided heart. Nothing is going to stop me from growing into a healthy, happy and successful entrepreneur in my business.

No matter which business you decide to venture into, it can work. You must believe, stay focused, determined, turn off the TV and have passion for what you are doing. With these traits, you are sure to reach your goals. Don’t set the compensation too high and too soon. Anything worthwhile takes time and will also build a strong foundation to develop into your dream life style.

So my challenge to you is to stop setting unrealistic goals, known as resolution, and to turn yourself around and be a revolution. Take back the control of your life today! Your actions will change your life, for the better.

To Your Revolutionary 2010!

Burn those Bridges Behind You!

When do most of us take action or start to live? It’s when we face death. Do or die situations. Life is precious and we seem to recognize that when tragedy hits. “I’m going to enjoy all the things that I haven’t given myself time to do.” “I’m going to live life to it’s fullest.” “I’m going to be kind to everyone and forgive my enemies.” “I’m going to reach my goal!”

WAKE-UP! Live NOW! Do those things NOW! Be kind and forgive others and yourself NOW! Do what it takes to reach that goal as an entrepreneur in a home based business NOW! DO or DIE! Burn the Bridges behind you and go Forward.

It’s time to burn the bridges that got you HERE! Don’t look or go back. Go Forward! Take ACTION! Listen, Learn, Share and Implement from those who have the success that you are seeking. Follow their system, trust their system and others will follow and trust YOU! Contact me and I’ll introduce you to a real business model where you will receive these values.

Cut the ties that bind you. Surround yourself with like-minded people. Set a date for your goal to be reached and stick to it. If your goal is to fire your boss, for example, write your letter of resignation, with integrity, and date it. Give to someone that will hand deliver the sealed envelope to your boss on the date you have written. No turning back now! Then, do you think you would do everything to reach that goal? DO or DIE!

You must have PASSION and LOVE for your goal. Without the passion or love, it’s just a DREAM. You may miss your mark at first, but Do NOT give up. We are what we think about. If we fear or think FAILURE, that is where we are headed. Think success, happiness, health….whatever you “want” in your life. DO NOT think about what you DON’T want. The universe hears what you are concentrating about. Start Climbing Today!

What will it take for YOU to reach YOUR goal? So get up off your behind and burn those bridges! TAKE ACTION! NOW!

How to Become Successful in 7 Decisions.

If you see yourself as the leader that you are…STOP! See yourself as the leader you can be!

A book I am reading at the moment reveals the 7 decisions to becoming successful. It was highly recommended by a good friend of mine. This book is “The Travelers Gift” written by Andy Andrews. The Traveler's Gift by Andy Andrew

#1. “The buck stops here” – Do not dwell on the past. It’s done. Take responsibility for your actions and future.
#2. “Seek Wisdom” – Never stop learning. Follow leaders. Give back and share what you learn.
#3. “Action” – Control the situation. Inspire others to go forward and they will follow you. You will become a leader.
#4. “Decided Heart” – Passion!! Best way to describe this decision.
#5. “Today, I will be happy” – Not feeling happy today? Write done everything that you are grateful for and happiness will be yours.
#6. “Forgiveness” – Don’t just forgive others, forgive yourself. Let yourself off the hook! Move forward.
#7. “I will persist without exception” – Failure is NOT an option! Do NOT give up! Do not let anything stop you from reaching your goal.

These decisions will never let you down. Always refer back to this list when you ask… “Why me?” You should be asking..”Why not me?” Never again will I blame others for my past, present or future. I am responsible for my own actions and decisions.

I am learning and growing everyday in my life and business. I hope that this enlightens you when making your decisions.

I highly recommend that you pick up a copy of The Traveler’s Gift by Andy Andrews today. It could very well change your life!

To Your Success,

Virginia Wild When in need, accept help.

Emotional Freedom …. Body and Mind

We are all filled with wonderful and frightening emotions. These emotions can control our lives, if we let them.

Happiness or sadness, calm or anger, fear or courage, grateful or envy, forgiveness or vengeful, frustrated
or in control, passion or numbness, warmth or bitterness, proud or ashamed, confidence or shyness,triumphant
or defeated …. what other emotions come to your mind? Which ones do you let control you or do you control?

It is said that opposites attract. So, why not transform the positive and negative emotions together and create
a powerful you!

What we must do is control our emotions. Once again, we have the choice.

Right now, today, this moment, is all we have. Let’s take control. We cannot change the past or foresee the future,
but we can alter the course of our future.

Celebrate your small achievements today and give yourself a pat on the back. Did you get out of bed? Did you
brush your teeth? Did you pay $5.00 towards that credit card debt? Did you take action today on directing
your future to freedom? Baby steps…..one foot in front of the other. Take a look in the mirror in the morning
and say to yourself, “I will not let my emotions control me! I will control my emotions!Emotional Freedom

In other words, for us to have true emotional freedom, we must build a connection our body and mind (spiritual
and thought). Always give first and never take. By helping others, we help ourselves. We feel…..well….
great! Smile, let someone in line, open the door for someone, etc. Our positive emotions will pass onto others
and create a better world. It starts with you.

These steps also apply in internet marketing. Share, teach, forgive, do not judge, …. people follow people, not businesses.

There are four types of emotional traits.
1. Intellectual – head strong, control, spirit comes last
2. Empath - open, sincere, takes on others’ emotions (if someone’s angry, they become angry)
3. Gusher – in touch with emotions, a little too much – shares eveything
4. Rock – strong, steady, there for you … doesn’t share their own emotion
Recognize these in others and your can learn how to communicate precisely.

Remember….. Emotional Freedom brings true happiness in our body and mind, plus success!

Alpha Leaders are Strong and Bold

When starting out as a leader, we tend to be shy, procrastinate and wait to be given the next step to take. This is what is called a Beta Leader. Betas typically lack in confidence and live life on what others dictate. That way, they have someone else to blame for their mistakes and failures.

Then, we have Pre-Alpha Leaders. They have the vision, courage, willingness to change and lead themselves into challenging situations. One must lead themselves before they can lead others.

We must follow a leader in order to become leaders ourselves. Which brings us to the Alpha Leader!

Alpha Leaders attract others by being confident, focused, respectful (expecting it in return), taking responsibility for their actions, welcoming and craving challenges and being BOLD!

Do NOT be afraid to take the initiative to put your plan into action. Experiment and learn from your mistakes. What works for others, may not work for you. Trail and error is one the best ways to educate yourself. Be bold and put yourself out there for others to follow!

Soar high like an eagle and you will be an Alpha Leader! Click here to Soar Like an Eagle

To your success,

Would You Cut Off Your Arm?

I heard a very interesting story tonight about a man who had trapped himself between a bolder and a rock.

He was stuck there for 6 days. Hope for a rescue was diminishing. Anger set in. He was mad at the rock,
the bolder, the sun, the wind blowing dust in his face. Then he realized that he, himself, was responsibleClick here to get UnStuck
for his situation.

Coming to the conclusion that he had to do something drastic or loose his life, he finally cut of his hand from
above the wrist. He was now free! He traveled 7 miles back to his vehicle and was rescued.

This story applies to everyone in life today. We must take responsibility for our own actions and decisions.

When making the chooses to change our lives, for whatever reason, we must be willing to cut off our own
arm to achieve the freedom we deserve. Stop watching tv, playing video games, surfing the internet for
jokes,etc… and put our energy and time into ourselves and our businesses.

We can all reach the top of that ladder with persistence, dedication, determination and focus.

So get rid the negative things that are slowing you down on your journey to success and freedom and
join my team by going to here.

All the best and happiness in your success!
