Here are some notes from Tony Robbin's Personal Power II which I decided to restart the '30 day' personal power challenge. For those of you who don't know Tony Robbins, he's a life and productivity guru. He does not just give positivity advice, but is a big business and time management expert.
Personal Power
- Clarity: KNOW YOUR OUTCOME (Set Goals)
Clarity is power- focus on the ONE THING that will make your life better and more productive. This is your life goal.
Get clear on what you want. What you want physically, spiritually, in business, money, investing etc.
- Then DECIDE and take ACTION
Only you have the Power to ACT You have to take action by making decisions whether they lead to possible pain/pleasure.
First be willing to fail-- (obviously don't take this literally in every case like putting all your money into a business that could make you lose all your money.
Failure - use to take action despite feeling it... it's a muscle, you must take action over and over--- (Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg)
3. Objective Observation. Sensory Acuity Notice what you're getting from your actions. Good self-assessment and honesty. (ie Ray Dalio giving absolute feedback from or Warren Buffet who is constantly honest with his investment strategies.)
Ask yourself if the action is working or not
This is the difference between someone who fails and keeps at it, despite
Examples of not knowing when to change your objectives and strategies: someone on Shark Tank who has a terrible idea, they might be smart and savvy, but they just keep pouring more good money into a bad concept
ie./ somoene in Cryptocurrencies pouring money into a failed Crypto- ie Tron while it was dipping, or someone still believing in Bitconnect when it's been proven to be a failed ponzi in disguise as a cryptocurrency
Keep changing approach
Use Role Modeling (do what other successful people are doing)
This is how you can accelerate success.
1. this works better than trial/error
2. just copy others success
- Flexible. Keep trying and Changing your approach. Try and fail, tweak your goals and try again. Most successful business people and investors try a lot of different approaches, then try again if they fail!
