How To Live A Successful And Balanced Life

2 Comments

I have just finished a book called The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. And this is exactly what I am going to share with you today. To tell you frankly, I’m really inspired by the information in that book.

Although it is just a small book, but its content truly opened my mind. I will strongly recommend everyone who wants to live a successful and balanced life to grab this book.

What I’m going to share with you here today are the rough ideas of what the book is all about. I believe that the information is great and empowering. If after you finish this post and find it boring, it is my plain English and my normal writing style that makes it so.

That is why I strongly recommend you to grab The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari. It is worth much more than its price tag. There are so many self-help books I have read and I dare say this is one of the best.

So here are the 7 wisdom that the book is going to teach you…

Wisdom #1 - Master Your Mind

I believe that you will think this is a common success tip for you. However, don’t underestimate this. Robin Sharma made it a masterpiece in explaining this and I felt totally inspired when reading this chapter myself. You know, I’ve been in self-development field for some time now, thus, if this book can inspire me, I bet it will do the same for you.

In this book, the author represent the mind as a garden. Therefore, you have to make sure your garden is clean and take care of it all the time. If you ever throw any toxic waste into your garden, all the beautiful flower and green grass will be gone. It is exactly the same for your mind.

The quality of your life is determined by the quality of your mind. What you think in your mind, you will create in your life.

Although that you cannot control what is happening to you such as a heavy traffic, flood or earthquake, but you definitely can control your mind and your thoughts. This is a gift from God that separate you from animal.

So by controlling the thoughts you have in your mind, you will be able to control your response and how you act according to your surrounding. As a result, you will be able to master your own destiny.

You can choose to read this article to the end or you can choose to be skeptical and leave this page right now. You have the power to choose and you can control your thought. This is what makes you human. This is what gives you the power you need to achieve anything you want in your life.

Thus, make sure you take care of your garden (mind) appropriately. Feed your mind with inspirational books and empowering information all the time. How you nurture your mind will show in your outer world.

If you are living in poverty today, it is because you have a poor mindset that focuses on poverty thoughts. There is nothing wrong with you. The only thing that is wrong are the thoughts that you are thinking. This explains why some people are successful and some people are living in mediocrity even though they are totally perfect physically.

Wisdom #2 - Follow Your Purpose

To live a successful and balanced life, you have to know exactly what you want physically, emotionally, spiritually and of course, materially.

If you don’t know where you are heading, you will never know when you have reached there. This is exactly what is happening with most people. They do not have a clear direction in their life. Most people are blur with what they want in their life, and as a result, they become the lost sheep and they will just follow the crowd to wherever the crowd goes.

Do not let this happen to you!

Do you know how can you attain lasting happiness? It is by constantly pursuing your goals and advancing towards the purpose and direction of your life.

The key point here is to find out your true talent, passion and your real purpose in life. Some people discover that they are great speaker and so they become a teacher or a lecturer. Some people have the talent in singing and so they end up becoming a great artist. What about you?

The main key is to have the discipline and vision to see your heroic mission and to serve others when you realize it.

A lot of people spend their lives dreaming about happiness and becoming successful. Yet, they never spend even 10 minutes to really find out what they truly want to accomplish in their life and writing down everything they want in life.

Thus, from now on, find out your true purpose in life and pursue the things you want.

Do you know that the first best time to plant a tree is the moment when you were born into this world? And the second best time will be now. If you never have a dream before, this will be the perfect moment for you. Don’t waste your life anymore. Know your purpose in life and pursue what you want.

Wisdom #3 - Practice Kaizen

Kaizen is a Japanese word. It simply means the habit of constant and never ending improvement. If you have read Anthony Robbin’s book, you will know what he means by this.

Success comes from the inside before you can manifest it into the outside. If you want to improve your outer world, be it your health, relationship or finances, you must first improve your inner world.

Here is a short quote from The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari:

When you have cultivated a deep sense of faith in your abilities and an indomitable spirit, nothing can stop you from succeeding in all your pursuits and living with great rewards. Taking the time to master your mind, to care for the body and to nourish your soul will put you in a position to develop more richness and vitality in your life. It is as Epictetus said so many years ago: ‘No man is free who is not a master of himself.‘

Someone who don’t know how to lead himself cannot lead a big corporation. Someone who cannot nurture himself will never know how to take care of his family. This is why you need to constantly improve yourself before you can improve your outer world.

Understand and always keep this in your mind, “the only limits on your life are those that you set yourself”. You can achieve anything you want in your life. As long as you practice the principle of Kaizen, you start to liberate your true human potential.

So practice this principle from now on. Live the life you always wanted. Be the one who you always want to be. Work hard to improve your body and your mind. Get out of your comfort zone and do the things you fear. And start to live life with passion and limitless energy from within you.

This is all that I’m going to share with you. If you feel that this is inspiring and it opens your heart and your mind, do as I say, invest yourself in this The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.

If You Want To Change Your Life, This Is Where You Should Start

Add your comment

Do you want to change your life?

This is where you should start, from your mindset - or in other words, your thinking.

You are what you think. It is what you think that will affect your decision and the action you are going to take in your life. Your mind is where everything begins. It is the idea in your mind that will makes you successful and rich.

Many people seem to not understand that in order for them to change their life for the better, they will have to start from their mind.

Most people thought that if they want to be rich, they must own big bungalows, sports cars, dine in the finest restaurant and so on. This is just the opposite.

You have to first change your mindset before you can change your physical life.

Think about it, someone who is proactive will actively search for opportunity and he will eventually found one, take action on it, and create amazing results from that.

What if you are not someone who is proactive? The whole story will be different. If you have the thinking that in order to be rich, you will need to have luxury cars, living in big bungalows, and more, you will never be rich.

This is exactly what is happening with most people. When you ask someone what do they need to consider rich, they will tell you all sorts of luxury cars, houses, and many more. Once they have all these classy stuff, then they will consider themselves as rich.

This is totally the opposite of the thinking of a successful person. Every successful person knows that you must first get rich in your mind in order for you to attract wealth, and then only comes to obtaining those classy stuff.

If you think that you need to have a sports car to be rich, you are putting the cart before the horse. This may seems ridiculous, but this is exactly what most people are thinking.

Wealth does not comes from your material possessions.

Have you ever wondered why most people who win lottery lose all their money within 1 year? This is because once they get the money, they use it to buy all the things that they think will make them rich. And this is what causes them to lose all their money.

Have you ever wondered why some people like Donald Trump, who had lost all his money, gone broke, but able to turn it around and be even more wealthy again?

This shows only one thing, wealth is created from your mindset. What you think will determine how wealthy you are.

I believe that now you are clear that if you want to change your life, be rich and successful, you will have to start from your thinking.

So how can you change your thinking and your mindset?

The answer is very simple, you can either learn it all by your own experience or you can learn from other people. Learning from other people will be the best choice as you will never have to go through all the mistakes that you are going to make yourself.

You can shortcut your learning edge by replicating the mindset of other successful people. What you can do then is to read and learn more in this field. Pay a visit to your local bookstore and grab some books regarding the field you are going to learn about and start changing your life right now.

Remember, you are who you think you are. If you think you can do it, you can do it.

How To Activate The Law Of Attraction

I believe that you know what is the law of attraction and how it works. This law simply states that to get what you want in your life, you must first manifest it in your mind. This is exactly what we have been discussing right here in this article.

This law of the universe is one of the most popular laws. It was made famous by the hot seller, The Secret.

Since the releasing of The Secret, millions of people have addicted to this law. Unfortunately, most people find this law does not work for them.

Why is this so? If you have read The Secret and you have also applied the principle taught in the book, but you haven’t manifest what you want into your life, it is simply because you are not following through the other laws of the universe.

Did you know that the law of attraction itself is incomplete?

There are still many other laws of the universe that many have forgotten. As a result of this, most people who practice the law of attraction alone end up fail to manifest their dreams and their goals.

Bob Proctor – one of the key figures in “The Secret”- believes that the Law of Attraction is incomplete, and for the first time ever, he reveals the 11 Forgotten Laws that will finally uncover the Law’s true potential.

It is said that the 11 Forgotten Laws add up will form a concise and complete system that has been specially formulated and PROVEN to give you accelerated – and permanent – success.

So before you pour in your time, your money and even your hope into the law of attraction, find out what Bob Proctor has to say about his 11 Forgotten Laws.

1 Comment

Hey, I don’t know whether this is your first time here. If this is not your first time around and you’ve been here for some time, you should know who am I and maybe you know a little bit of my story.

If you are living a mediocre life today, this is the right place for you. Continue to read on and you will discover how I changed my life from no one to become a full time internet marketer who makes most of my income online.

My name is Shawn Lim. It is my privilege to have you here.

What I’m sharing here in my blog is tons and tons of self-improvement or success-related information that can change your life if you put them into use.

The problem with most people is that they read what I share here, get excited about it for a few seconds, or maybe a few minutes, but then they never really put the strategies into their life.

This is exactly what is happening to me 3 years back.

I remember it clearly that 3 years ago I was still studying in university. That time, I’m eager to success, but I just don’t know how I can make it.

I Want To Make Money, I Want To Be Rich, I Want To Be A Millionaire, BUT I Don’t Know How

I just know that money is important to me and if I’m rich, I can buy all the things I want. This is the time when I come across with network marketing.

I don’t know about you, but I know that most people want to be rich and successful in their life. Unfortunately, most of them fail to achieve their dreams and make their goals come true. This is what I’m going to share with you here. I’m going to tell you what changes my life and turn my life into the better.

I have the intention of becoming rich. And so it happens to me that I get to know the get-rich opportunity from network marketing.

If you have been involved in network marketing before, you should know that every successful network marketers possess one common thing. This ‘thing’ is their mindset.

After struggling for success for a few years, I discovered that not only successful network marketers have a common mindset, in fact, every successful people in life have the same thinking and mindset!

This is what amazed me and keep me going in the self-improvement industry.

I like self-improvement a lot and this is one of the reasons I created this blog as well. And because of my passion in this field, I read a lot of books and listen to a lot of audio tapes.

The longer I stay in this industry, the more I read, the more I learn, the more I know, I started to see a “common patterns of success”.

From that moment onwards, I found out that if you want to change your life, or whatever you want to change or acquire, you will have to start from your inner self - your mindset.

It is what you think that will lead you to where you want to end up. Many people fail to achieve what they want simply because their mindset are not align towards what they want to achieve in their life.

If You Don’t Know This, It Is Not Your Fault!

The key to success is extremely simple and easy to implement. What blocked most people from achieving what they want is the lack of determination and commitment.

Everything starts from your mind. If you never thought of wanting to read this right now, you will never continue to read. If inside your mind, you have NO passion to succeed, you will never continue to read to discover my secrets to succeed.

If you never thought of wanted to watch movie, you will never end up in the cinema. If you never thought of wanted to improve the quality of your life, you will never come across my blog.

It is your mindset that will determine your habit, your behavior, the decision you are going to take and the actions you will make in your life.

So as you can see it clearly now, it is all about your mindset. What you think and focus on, you will achieve.

It is as simple as this. This is the most basic key to success. As long as you follow through this principle, you will definitely be clear of how to achieve what you want. Everything will become clear to you and you will start moving forward toward your goals and dreams.

If you don’t know this fact, it is not your fault as there is no people telling you about it. Thus, don’t blame yourself because you still have the time and resources to achieve what you want in your life.

The Thing That Changes My Life Forever…

I know that all the knowledge I acquired is not from one single book, it is from all the materials that I have read, all the audios that I’ve gone through and all the experience I earned in my life.

However, there is one thing that I strongly recommend you to get in your life. I have read so many books and I can tell that this is the one that you will definitely need if you are serious about living the kind of life you want in your life.

This book is written by one of the youngest self-made millionaires and success coach from Singapore. He is one of my favorite gurus in self-improvement field.

His book, Master Your Mind, Design Your Destiny is what I considered one of the self-improvement classic that you definitely must read.

What you are going to discover in this book is that Adam has compiled all his knowledge, especially from the section of mind power and NLP, you will find this book worth a million.

What I like about this book is that it gives clear examples and explanations. And the most important point is, Adam also makes all the success principles easy to follow with simple and step-by-step strategies. As a result, if you follow through and take action according to the book, you will become who you want to be.

After all, if this book can help me to achieve my goals and my dreams, I believe that it can help you as well.
