Personal Responsibility, Self Confidence and Success
Successful people commit to taking personal responsibility for their lives and careers. They also exude self confidence. When you commit to taking personal responsibility for your life and career, you build your self confidence. It's a win/win. The more responsibility you take, the more your self confidence grows. When you commit to taking personal responsibility for your life and career, you act. And action builds self confidence, unlike inaction and procrastination which kill it. So commit to taking personal responsibility for your life and career. You'll not only put yourself in charge of your success, you'll build your self confidence in the process.
Successful People Treat Problems and Setbacks as Opportunities
Stuff happens: good stuff, bad stuff, frustrating stuff, and unexpected stuff. Most of it is out of your control. Successful people respond to the stuff that happens in a positive way. Humans are the only animals with free will. That means we -- you and me -- get to decide how we react to every situation that comes up. It's your choice. Successful people choose to respond to events proactively. They do what they can to make the best out of any situation in which they find themselves. Use them to become a better, more successful person.

Become the Star You Are Meant to Be
You want more out of life than just a job. Whether you work for a large company, a startup, a nonprofit, or you are an entrepreneur, you want to be a star; a complete and total personal and professional success. But professional success is complicated and may be elusive. To achieve professional success and become the star you are meant to be you need a professional success blueprint.
Tough Times, Optimism, Personal Responsibility and Success
Successful people are self confident. Self confident people are optimistic. They face their fears and act. They commit to taking personal responsibility for their lives and careers. When you are optimistic and commit to taking personal responsibility you realize that the stuff that happens to you is not nearly as important as how you choose to react to the stuff that happens. I used the recent economic downturn to add another component to my business. I learned a lot in the process and created a more sustainable and stronger business. And that's how I suggest you think. When the fates seem to be conspiring against you look on the bright side. Figure out what you can learn from the situation and how these learnings can help you move forward. Then commit to taking personal responsibility for doing what it takes.
Create Your Success by Faking it Till You Make It
Self confidence is crucial to building a successful life and career. When your actions -- your posture, tone of voice, etc. -- demonstrate your confidence, other people believe in you and your ability to perform. On the other hand, when your actions demonstrate a lack of confidence, others doubt your ability. When you stand tall, look people in the eye and speak in a direct manner, you will appear to be self confident -- even if you aren't. When you appear to be self confident, people will treat you as if you are.
Successful People Beat Procrastination
Successful people are self confident. Self confident people are optimistic. They face their fears and act. They surround themselves with positive people. Procrastination is the manifestation of fear. When you find yourself procrastinating on any task, identify what you fear about that task. Once you identify your fear, you'll find that you can put it behind you and get on with the job at hand. Procrastination and fear are the enemies of self confidence and success. Face them head on, and you'll not only build your confidence, you'll succeed in your life and career.
Face Your Fears and Live Your Dream Life

Playing the Big R Game
What is one of people's greatest fears -- the fear of dying? Of public speaking? Spiders? The I.R.S.? Sure, many people share these fears, but the one I'd like to explore today I believe is larger than all of these put together. It's the fear of REJECTION -- the Big R. And while a lot of people in sales struggle to overcome this fear every day, no one is immune. Let's face it, one of our greatest desires is to be accepted and loved. And often times, being rejected feels like the exact opposite. So, how might we overcome this innate fear of rejection? How about a little 'purposeful play' to lighten the load. Here's a game I created over twenty years ago that served me well then and with a little modification, a number of other times.
Beyond the Barrier
All of us have fears that we face. These fears cause us to do certain things and cause us not to do other things. Fear is a very natural and normal response in most cases. However, from time to time it is important to ask ourselves, "Are my current fears well-founded concerns that are keeping me out of trouble or are they irrational thoughts that are keeping me from where I should be?"
