Acquiring The Missing Piece, The Drawback of Goal Setting

Hey guys.. I met my friend who’s asking about my blog and it remind me to update this blog again. I have been really busy this past few months until I don’t have time to update my blog. There are SO many interesting thing I found & learn that I would like to share, especially about goal setting, Whoa.. I really shocked about the dangerous of goal setting that I learn about it recently, I really excited to share about it, you gotta keep reading it until finish.. really.. seriously, 5-10 minutes reading this post will help change your life, but before that, let me do update on my goal from my previous posting creating milestones toward big goal for those who’re wondering about the result. Well, my milestone last time was obtaining 5 figures income net/month from affiliate marketing. I couldn’t met that milestone on July, I can only manage to obtain 5 figure gross, but I’m pretty happy with the result, considering I’m only doing it part time and the net was pretty close though :) This past month I have tried to figure out how to solve this missing link toward my that big goal, I roughly know what need to be done, but a lot of work need to be done, perhaps I’ll try to outsource thing that can be outsourced.

Key To Success: Be Willing To Make More Mistake

Most of the successful person out there are normally those who is willing to make more mistake. Successful people are willing to risk making mistake, they don’t take mistake personally as in front to their self worth, instead, use it primarily for learning.

Here is the ultimate success formula: Action -> Feedback -> Correction

When you take action in this world, most of the time you’ll get feedback based on the action you took. From the feedback, sometimes you need to take correction of your action. Then you take action again and do the same cycle again until you become better. It’s this simple to become success but not so many people will follow this step. People will be stopped by their own stories on the feedback and correction. “Oh.. I’m not good enough..“, “I’m a failure“, “I shouldn’t doing this“, etc.

Successful people understand this simple concept and keep taking action get feedback and do correction. They don’t really have the whole story around it, they just do it. Only your own BS stopping you from taking action.

Most people want things to go very right, everything line up perfectly before they take action. Otherwise they will say “I don’t think this is for me“, “Oh.. this is too hard“, etc. You have to understand that correction is natural, in your business, money, relationship, personal development. How many people notice that “two steps forwards, one step back” is natural.

Talking about perfection, perfectionist will actually have hard time to become successful. Perfection is actually a form of fear: fear of failure, fear of disapproval, even fear of success. Often perfectionist have feeling of unworthiness behind that. They’re trying to feel what they don’t feel they have, trying to feel perfect means they don’t feel good enough. Here is the issue why perfectionist stuff doesn’t work, if the source/person take action, they do something and the source is not good enough, then everything they do is not good enough. If you’re a perfectionist that always feel not good enough, then everything you do will also not good enough. Not only what you do is not good enough, but everyone /everything around you is also not good enough. You can’t win this way.

Your True Self Is Not Necessarily Who You Are Right Now

What? My true self is not necessarily who I’m right now? Yes, you got it right. For some people, who you are right now might be your true self, but most people, they don’t. First, let me introduce the term: True Self or Higher Self Vs False Self or Conditioning Mind.

One the most important thing that you can learn in your live is to differentiate between this two. The true self is your original self, who you came in to the world as. The false self basically is who you learn to be in this world in order to live and survive in the world. Since child, we learn who we are from various way and one way is from experience, and this way of being that we learn or created is called our personality (false self / ego self), this false self is an idea that you made up when you’re very little who you are and who you need to be in order to live and survive in this world.

Your personality is based on the need to survive, it’s not necessary to enjoy and thrive in the world.
Our way of thinking and being is based on conclusion in which the assumption is generated based on a child’s mind. Based on research, 90% of your personality is formed before 10 years old. Other than our assumption, we also got some conditioning from our family, friends, media, environment. But all of this stuff is NOT the real you. It’s only a recording of information that you learn from a child and it’s running unconsciously until now. It’s only recording that you learn as a child, and now it’s stored in the unconscious mind.

Stop Trying To Please Everyone

It’s not uncommon a lot of people in this world trying to be someone they’re not, they even try to please other people just to get recognition, attention and approval. This is #1 misery people do in their life without reality and indeed this is the fastest route to unhappiness.

Instead of trying to get approval from others, you need to have your own self-approval by accepting yourself and your own heart. Accept that you’re unique and special. You shouldn’t concern too much what people think or thought around you. You should have this principal: If other people like you, it’s awesome. If other people don’t like you, you’re just fine.

I’m what I’m, and this is my evolution. what others perceive on me is their evolution” ~ Unknown.

Integrity: The secret to get what you want in your life

This time I would like to bring a great topic that I really really value it in my life, and I just know the huge secret and potential behind it, Integrity. All this time, I thought self-confidence was more important to achieve success in your life. I focus only on how to boost and maintain high self-confidence and find it’s a bit hard to keep it up all the time, especially when what you’re doing seems go so wrong.

Harv Eker taught me that we need to honor integrity more than anything. Here is the big secret of integrity:

Integrity -> Trust -> Confidence -> Action.

Integrity will lead to trust, trust will lead to confidence to produce action as your result. When you have high integrity, it will boost your self trust and it will boost your self confidence as well. And guess what, it will not only boost yourself, other people will have trust on you and other people will have confidence on you and willing to take action for you too. You see here, integrity is a higher power of energy. When people have higher energy, people will get attracted to you and when they show up, build them (of course you need to have leadership as well).

So, how to build your integrity then?

The Law of the Seed

This is a very good piece of thought. Read carefully and relate it to your life.  Take a look at an apple tree. There might be five hundred apples on the tree and each apple has ten seeds. That’s a lot of seeds! We might ask, “Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few more apple trees?” Nature has something to teach us here. It’s telling us: “Not all seeds grow. In life, most seeds never grow”. So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more than once. This might mean:
-You’ll attend twenty interviews to get one job.
-You’ll interview forty people to find one good employee.
-You’ll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum cleaner, one insurance policy, or a business idea
-And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special friend.When we understand the “Law of the Seed”, we don’t get so disappointed. We stop feeling like victims. We learn how to deal with things that happen to us. Laws of nature are not things to take personally. We just need to understand them – and work with them. IN A NUTSHELL: Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds.

The Millionaire Mind Intensive – Part 1

I just completed the Millionaire Mind Intensive training last weekend, it was 3 full freaking days 9am-11pm training and I can only say it in one word.. It’s AWESOME! Seriously… I never regret I spend 3 full days doing this seminar. Now I really believe this program was worth hundreds-thousands of dollar in value. The reason he’s charging very inexpensive and gives some free tickets away is because this is the first time T. Harv Eker brings this program to Asia, well he need to build reputation in here after he has been famous in US. He is not only good at money, business & self development, but he’s also a spiritual person. I have learned a lot of thing that change the way I see about money and myself. Ok, enough said about him, the reason for me to post this blog is to share what I have learned for benefit of everyone who read this blog who interested to know. I definitely can’t write everything I have learned in 3 days in here, but I’ll summary the important point that I consider useful for me. Here we go:

According to Harv, the secrets of wealth actually lies in creating a supportive, wealth-producing belief structure. It boils down to this: to get rich, we must think rich.

The Millionaire Mind Intensive (Asia – Singapore)

Today I receive 2 free tickets for Harv Eker’s 3 days seminar this coming friday in Singapore : The Millionaire Mind Intensive “The Secret Psychology of Wealth” that he claimed it cost $1290 each ticket in US. I don’t really believe it’s value $1290, but I don’t really bother it since I’m not paying any single cen. Well, it’s actually not really free ticket, I got the ticket as bonus because I bought his product before that I thought a bit overprice. Anyway, Harv Eker claimed after attended this 3 days intensive course, he will be able to change our financial life forever by changing our “Money Blueprint” (refer to my previous post of the definition) by participating in some kinda games or something. I’m gonna see what kind of ‘games’ that he promised can change our financial life he will deliver during this 3 days seminar. I’m inviting my good friend who loves motivational self improvement thing to come with me. I know there will be a lot of sales pitch during this seminar, but asides of that, I’ll absorb and post it here any of his valuable information that worth taking home for benefit of everyone. So, stay tunes of my next post!

Here is the preview of his intensive course just in case you want to see:
