Self-esteem = Income


"The better your self-esteem, the more money you will make. The fastest way to increase your self-esteem is to improve your self discipline. Do exactly what you say you will do, when you say you will do it, push yourself to make it happen, do whatever it takes, and you will attract money like a nuclear-powered magnet."

Putting the Steel Back In Your Spine

It’s time to get strong. Time to take control of your life and step up to the next level. Time to kick butt. Time to make it happen. It’s YOUR time. The time is NOW. John Steinbeck said, “I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.” This is how to move up from the level of a servile sycophant to the level of a warrior, from compromising toady to powerful winner, from politically correct brownnose to legendary leader, from a wandering generality to a meaningful specific.

There are two kinds of people out there – people with a wishbone and those with a backbone. Most of us don’t want to offend anyone, until we realize that the only people who are offended by directness, honesty, and straight talk are losers. Many people don’t want to rock the boat, but they don’t understand that when you rock the boat the wimps fall out and you’re left with the winners. Political correctness is the most powerful weapon the evil enemies of western civilization have. You can quickly emerge from the cocoon of fear and timidity as a courageous pioneer who can create the world you want.

It all starts with your own self-esteem. Your self-image will determine exactly what you accomplish in life, how much money you make and how much fun you have. People follow leaders. People want to be associated with champions. Success starts with what you believe about yourself and what you tell yourself about your abilities, circumstances, options, past and integrity. It’s all in your head, Fred. So how do we start adjusting our image of what and who we are? It’s easier than you may think.

1. Make a copious list of all your successes. Focus on what you have done right and what you have accomplished, nothing else.

2. Make a list of your strengths and positive attributes.

3. Make a list of all your opportunities and abilities.

4. Align yourself with the most powerful, influential, successful and honest people. To do this, join the DollarMakers Joint Venture Forum right now.

5. Change your environment (what you see, read, hear) to stimulate success. Your home, car, office, and workspace should carry visual and audio images of what you want, not what you don’t want. Pictures of your goals and aspirations will inspire and focus you. Whatever you focus on will grow. Only read books and watch TV programs that will build and strengthen you.

6. Change your self-talk. Don’t use words and phrases like:
“I guess, I think, Maybe, I suppose, Perhaps, I’ll TRY, I’ll do my best, Hope.” This is loser language.
Change the way you talk to others and yourself. You will make it happen. You know. You expect. You guarantee. Whatever it takes. You will make it happen. You are a nuclear powered money magnet. Every day, in every way, you’re getting richer and richer. You are an unstoppable warrior. You are strong and courageous, fearless and bulletproof.

7. Educate yourself about your profession. Knowledge builds confidence. Learn everything you can about being a Joint Venture Broker and practice it 24/7 and you will make more money than you can imagine. Throw yourself into your profession and work and be prepared to make mistakes.

8. Demand success and do not compromise. Remove losers from your life. Expect to win and demand that people deliver what they promise. Set high standards and don’t listen to losers, leeches, and naysayers. Remember this: Weak people are dangerous. Judge people by what they do, not by what they say. Hold them and yourself to account and keep your word. Be the steel fist in the velvet glove and don’t be afraid to take the gloves off.

This is the way to move from fear to faith. In order to find loyal friends, be loyal. In order to attract winners, be a winner. Tell the truth and to hell with the consequences. Live according to your own values, and nobody else’s. Don’t get distracted by the rabble – focus on what you want, not on what you don’t want. When you are attacked, fight fire with fire. Find a winning horse and ride it. Hitch your wagon to a star. Together with other winners, you can accomplish anything. They will tell you what you can do and help you to do it. They will show you all your opportunities and remind you of your strengths. Set specific, exciting goals and stick to them. Never waver. Never quit, and your dreams will all come true.

Finally, a good start is to read “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand. Most losers never get more than half way in that book. Winners read the whole thing and then every other book she wrote.
