  • The Desperation Cycle And Failing Motivation  By : Kurt Mortensen
    Many think motivation is useless because it doesn’t ensure long-lasting results. This thought tendency can be seen in what I call the Desperation Cycle.

    We all know we are creatures of habit. We are like water following the path of least resistance. As creat...

  • She Shared This Success Principle Just As The Clouds Parted  By : Keith Matthew
    Laura and I just returned from a 10-day getaway to Disney World and I have to say - I feel GREAT!

    I love to help people start businesses and live their dreams - so much that sometimes I forget what it's like to play : )

    During the plane ride back from the place where "Dreams Come True," our 6-year old, Elina, suddenly turned around and dropped a success principle on me that Walt Disney himself would have been proud of!

    Pay attention here because a 6-year old is about...

  • What Is Success?  By : Roy Thomsitt
    I recently read a thread in a forum in which somebody was dismissive of other people who wrote about success. His argument was that they wrote about success but were not successful themselves.

    I made no comment, just smiled as others were diving in to dismiss what was nothing more than a self glorifying remark. To make such a statement he must have had a very narrow minded view of success, presumably relating success to massive wealth. Even on such a narrow, and plainly s...

    I am sure that many of you are deep into the drama and excitement of the holiday season. There is so much to be done and so much to think about and consider that many can hardly think of anything else.
