Success Mindset #4:

MASTER your MIND {Think about your thinking}

Your MIND = your best friend

or your worst enemy

“You become what you think about most of the time”

– Earl Nightingale, The Strangest Secret

This is a BRAIN CELL.

It is the basic building block of your brain. You have

1,000,000,000,000 a million million cells in your brain. We use just 2%!

Brain Cell

If a neuron dies, the surrounding neurons will take over some of the activity from the disabled one. You can actually grow new dendrites if you continue to intellectually stimulate yourself through reading, doing puzzles, and playing games like chess.By creating more dendrites and more connections, you create more chances for thought generation. So every time you have a new thought, you literally change your brain at a chemical, electrical, and physical level. MOST IMPORTANT…… a thought is real!

THE STORY OF NICK –

Family man. But a worrier and pessimist.

A railroad worker who always expected worse to happen... And then one day while working at the railroads

Nick got accidentally locked!

www.saltandlight.ph

Since he was in a refrigererator car, Nick assumed that the temperature inside was a freezing 0°C. He started shivering and thought to himself, “I'll freeze to death if I don’t get out of here.”

Nick wrote a message to his wife and family on a cardboard box:

“So cold,” “…body's getting numb. If I could

just go to sleep. These may be my last words.”

www.saltandlight.ph

The strange thing was the boxcar’s refrigeration unit was broken and the temperature inside was just around 16°C — far from freezing.

But the autopsy on Nick’s body showed that he had frozen to death!

Nick’s thoughts froze himself to death.

“As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.”

– Proverbs 23:7 King Solomon

What are the thoughts in your mind?

What do you think about most of the time?

Are you hopeful? Or are you worried?

Study on Worry: “What People Worry About”

40% are worrying about things that never happen anyway. 30% are worrying about past, unchangeable decisions. 12% are worrying about illnesses that never

happen. 10% are worrying about adult children and friends

(who are able to take care of themselves). Only 8% are worrying about real problems. 92% ng lahat ng pinoproblema ng maga tao are about

things that are not within our control!

Paul to the Philippians (gamot sa worry) “Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. If you do this, you will experience God’s peace, which is far more wonderful than the human mind can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:6-7 (New Living Translation

Placebo Case Study

www.saltandlight.ph

Placebo heart surgeries anyone?

Businessweek, reporting on the economics of the billion-dollar heart surgery industry, reported that those who had thought they had undergone laser heart surgery to improve their blood

flow received the same benefits as those who went through actual heart surgery.

I.e. “Hindi na barado!”

The Pygmalion effect Self-fulfilling prophecy

Examples: Children – “baka madapa ka!” “bobo!”

“Friends” – “baka malugi ka!” Country – “Wala nang pagasa”

Pygmalion effect in business

...performance will improve if your supervisors communicate positive thoughts about people to people. If the supervisor actually believes that every employee has the ability to make a positive contribution at work, the telegraphing of that message, either consciously or unconsciously, will positively affect employee performance.

What are the thoughts in your mind?

What do you think about most of the time?

Are you hopeful? Or do you worry?

“You become what

you think about most of the time”

– Earl Nightingale, The Strangest Secret

…So master your thought life.

Your most important capital is not money but your intellectual capital.

Think on these things… Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are

true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are

lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any

praise, think on these things. – Phil 4:8

Success Mindset #9:

Hindi takot mag TRABAHO

Work HARD vs EASY Money mentality

P80M Lotto Winner, Naputulan ng Kuryente. "Last Sunday’s debut telecast (True Stories on QTV featured) the story of a man who won over P80 million playing the lotto sweeps—and eventually lost most of it. In fact, his fortunes have fallen so low that the electricity in his “mansion” has been cut off, and his kitchen shelves are bare. (Inquirer.net, 1/29/10.

Florida Lotto winner wished he had never won. Family members say Abraham Shakespeare, a truck driver's assistant, was constantly hounded for a piece of his $30 million lotto winnings. Shakespeare's brother told The Associated Press that Shakespeare often wished he had never bought the winning ticket. `` `I'd have been better off broke.' He said that to me all the time,'' Robert Brown said. (In April of 2009, Shakespeare was murdered and buried in the backyard of his friend.) Read more: http://www.miamiherald.com/

10,000 hrs. principle

“Greatness requires enormous time” - Malcolm Gladwell

10,000 hours = 20 hrs of work/practise @ wk x 10 yrs [or 4 hrs of practise @ day x 5 days @ wk] + opportunity = success = “outlier”

Success Mindset #10:

OWN THE BUSINESS – don’t let the business own you!

There’s more to life than WORK and BUSINESS

Set your mind on not just being a success

But on being the most... loving spouse, or parent, or brother, or sister, or son or daughter…

Raising Funds by Producing, Organizing and Promoting Events (c) Ardy Roberto 2008

Entrepreneurial MINDSET Your business is NOT your life:

“Once the business threatens to break-up our marriage, I will close or sell the business. I choose FAMILY

over the business.”

Entrepreneurial MINDSET

To avoid burn out... FIRE yourself!

Find a way to make the business run without

you. (April 8 story)

Entrepreneurial MINDSET

Your business is NOT your life.

Own your business, don’t let your business OWN YOU!

Ask yourself these (Gerber) questions:

How can I get my business to work, but without me?

How can I get my people to work, but without my constant interference?

How can I systematize my business like a franchise?

Entrepreneurial MINDSET

Work ON your business not IN:

• Place systems • Place a team • Coach • Let go…

Entrepreneurial MINDSET

Work hard ON your business in the first few years so that it can run profitably and successfully WITHOUT YOU for the next few

decades. (Or enables you to SELL the business, so that your money starts working for you)

Entrepreneurial MINDSET: Your business is not your life

Set your mind on not just being a successful entrepreneur,

But on being the most... Loving spouse, or parent, or brother, or sister, or son or daughter…

Entrepreneurial MINDSET: Your business is not your life

At the end of your life, what matters most is the love and respect of those who matter most.

So make sure that you own the business and the business does not own you…(don’t fall in love with your business or else…)

Entrepreneurial / Investor MINDSET

Own your business, don’t let your business

OWN YOU!
