It takes just 3-4 weeks to make a habit stick whether it be a good habit or a bad one. So here is an idea to motivate and inspire you to create success habits!

It will take some deliberate action daily starting today. Are you ready?

What words do you speak or think, that you need to change to ensure success in your life?

For example:
Let’s suppose you meet some difficult tasks with the thought: “I can’t do that”. You might even speak these words.

This difficult task you are facing may well take you out of your comfort zone.

During a recent trip back to my home country (New Zealand) I found some time to regroup and reflect on the future of my blogging efforts. I wrote a little about my time of regrouping in my personal blog, kiwichamp.com

It is always good to take some time now and again when you can step back and reflect on where you are going and why. This will certainly help to you to:

“I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.” Christopher Reeve

So you too can be a hero!

I remember when I first started on the mission field I was told that if you made it for the first five years, then you would actually have a great chance of being a “veteran”. Wow!

Getting over the first hump is the most difficult:
Yes, it is true, the highest dropout time is during the first five years. Once you make it over that hump, you practically become a veteran by default.

Of course there is still a long journey ahead but because you found strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles, the next stage of the journey seems so much easier. Now you at least know the language and the culture.

There is a very obvious and common denominator between all of those who have achieved a great level of success in their lives.

• This common ground is that they all maintain a very positive attitude. They all have a champion mindset.
• They always look for the opportunities when difficulties arise. They recognize that every obstacle is an opportunity to conquer and thus to grow stronger and better.
• They do not focus on the problem, but rather look for the answer.
• They have learned how to conquer every situation and not just cope with it.
• They know how to embrace change as a friend that will lead them to new opportunities.

Your mindset is very important if you are seeking to become successful in any area of your life. You may be seeking to success in business, in your family life, with weightloss, health. It does not matter what area you are focusing on becoming successful in, the most important thing you need is the right mindset. You need to maintain a champion mindset.

You can find a lot more about how to create and maintain a champion mindset by going over to my blog, Mindset for Living – Champion Mindset.

And make it the beginning of the best part of your life!

On Mindset for Living I wrote an article about how you can set realistic yet life changing goals for 2009. You can find that article right here

A great way to help you keep on track with your goals is to evaluate through keeping a journal. To some keeping a journal may not be very appealing.

The very thought of it may create visions in your mind of tediously writing your life’s story every day. I remember trying to do that as a youth. Every day (for a few days anyway) I would write things like: Today I went to see my grandparents. We played golf in Granddads back yard … etc. That can get “old” and even tedious after a few weeks. At least it did for me.

But no, ..
