Survival Mode Can Kill You

By J Randy Hall

I can’t count the times I’ve heard the expression “survival mode” over the past year.  It seems like every company struggling due to the recession moves into “survival mode” as if they physically relocate the entire organization to a place where thinking past next month’s numbers will get you kicked off the island.  After all, “if we don’t resort to survival mode now we may not be around for the long term”.   The same thinking was around three years, five years and ten years ago and it sounded like “if we don’t make our growth numbers this quarter we may not be around for the long term”.

Survival mode is not new.  In fact, it’s the very kind of thinking that contributed greatly to us being in a recession in the first place.  We just have a better excuse for it now that we can point to a reason for being myopic.  There’s no question that in this economy businesses need to manage the bottom line, cut costs, rationalize their talent and make hard decisions.  But there’s nothing about that list that businesses shouldn’t be doing on a daily basis.  What’s dangerous about survival mode is the focus on the immediate future rather than the efforts to build a lasting sustainable business.

Let me give you a real world example of two companies that dealt with the recession in very different ways.  Both are service providers in the same industry and both experienced a severe drop in revenue as the economic crisis began.  The first company immediately began to reach out to their customers and confirm that the customers would abide by their contracted agreements. When there was a sense that the customers may need to shift their earlier purchase decisions pressure was applied to keep the services on the books with no changes. The CEO applied just as much pressure to the sales teams to “do whatever it takes” to hold customers to their agreements. In the first few months, it had the desired effect and bolstered the slipping revenues for the company.

The second company in the exact same situation took a different approach.  The CEO had everyone call their customers and tell them that clearly the marketplace was changing and that maybe the customers needs were changing as well in this new economic climate.  They asked each of their clients to sit down with them and re-evaluate their needs.  The company expressed their willingness to make any adjustments that were right for the customers business now, even if they were different than when they signed the service agreement.  At first, they had many customers reduce their services, but they didn’t panic.  Through those candid conversations with their clients they discovered some new ways to help them deal with the economic challenges and the clients often learned of services that they weren’t aware of because they had never used them before.  While the company took an initial revenue hit, they broadened the client’s view of their capabilities and built priceless good will by reaching out to renegotiate the current contracts.  Their revenues are up 15% over last year.  The first company is down double digits and struggling to keep the doors open.

Every leader needs to make tough calls and rationalize costs in this extremely challenging market situation but those who use the recession as an excuse to think only about tomorrow’s revenue will emerge from the recession far weaker, if they emerge at all. It will take creative and thoughtful leadership to bring a business through this turmoil ready to grow.  Business leaders staring only at next month are rarely creative or thoughtful.  Those leaders have panicked and the organization will panic with them.  Tough choices, make them, cuts that help you run more efficiently and leaner, make them too.  The moment you stop focusing on the future as a leader though, you lose the ability to reach it.

Self Improvement Seminar Helps to Take You to a Higher Level of Success

By Sunny James

Article placed here by Janet Schlarbaum

It is easier than you may think. You can read inspirational and motivational books or listen to audio. The results that you can get from this type of information is very limiting, even though it is very good and up beat. Because most folks get stuck some where along the way and then do not have a clue how to get beyond where they are at and they just quit. This leads to their own failure and then the vicious cycle works on you.

If you are truly wanting to get great long lasting results then it is best to get yourself involved with a training seminar where you have a coach that teaches and mentors you. They know how to inspire and motivate you to get the types of results that you are looking for in your life.

Highly successful people know the true importance of getting on going training and mentoring for themselves this will help them excel.

When you learn through one on one coaching or group coaching there is a level of accountability and results that you just can not get from a book. Then when you are stuck some where along the way you have the help and mentorship you need to get you back on track. This type of training is so valuable and the level of results that you are get can not be matched through any other way of learning.

There Are Not Two Minds

By Shirlee Hall

There is a power that can bring more wealth, health, happiness and joy into our lives once we learn how to contact and use it. If things are not working the way you would like them to in your life, you will need to do something that you have not tried as yet. There are potentialities within the deeper part of the mind that will take form in the world without through conscious control. Within the subconscious part of the mind you will find the solution for every problem and the cause for every effect. We are constantly being influenced by the subconscious. The secret is to know how to open the door to that part of the mind and become skilled in practicing the inner powers and knowledge.

Whatever you impress on your subconscious mind is expressed in life as a condition, experience or event. Your subconscious works according to the law of belief…your belief. If you do not like what is manifesting in your life, change the laws of your mind. Law, belief, thought and reactions run the subconscious. The reactions are your experiences, events, conditions and acts. If you desire to change the inner laws established through experience and acceptance, it is helpful to apply scientific methods that work according to the law of action and reaction.

Although there is only one mind, it possesses two distinctive characteristics…objective and subjective, conscious and subconscious, waking and sleeping, surface and deep, voluntary and the involuntary, the male and female and similar terms. You are a gardener planting seed thoughts in your subconscious all day long based on habitual thinking. It stands to reason that if you plant thoughts of peace, happiness, right action, good will, prosperity, self-mastery, success and love, the soil of the subconscious part of the mind will eventually reap the desired harvest. The first step is to take charge of your thoughts since they are the seeds. It is of utmost importance that thoughts are monitored. It is only then that you can apply the powers of the subconscious to your advantage.

Conscious and subconscious are only terms. The two are spheres of activity with one mind. The conscious is obviously the thinking part or reasoning tool. It chooses and makes decisions while the subconscious sphere accepts what is impressed upon it or what you consciously believe. It is helpful to look upon the subconscious as the soul, which accepts any kind of seed, good or bad. This is why it is important to guard our thoughts during experiences of loss, limitation and sorrow. The subconscious simply responds to the nature of thought and suggestion. There are many successful techniques available to help clear out the negative impressions. The problem is most people don’t stick with their intent. To bring about a solution, repetitive practice is required. Through repetition and perserverance, good results will happen. It could take weeks or longer but, changes will manifest.

Since the subconscious is incapable of making selections and comparisons, it is very important that you select your thoughts, ideas and premises that will help and not hinder peace, prosperity, joy or health. All great spiritual teachers suggest we guard the gate to the five senses. The conscious part of the mind uses the five physical senses to observe the objective world. Knowledge is gained through the five senses. The subconscious or subjective part of the mind works independently of the five senses; it perceives through intuition. In other words, the subconscious is the storehouse of memory, the seat of emotions. It has the capacity of clairvoyance and clairaudience, can leave your body, travel to distant lands and bring back information. It is through the subjective part of the mind that you are able to read the thoughts of others and know things that the thinking mind has no way of knowing. It cannot argue or reason, only accept any suggestions given to it as being absolutely true.

You can reverse beliefs that work against your happiness through the repetition of constructive and harmonious thoughts. Habitual thinking of your conscious sphere establishes deep grooves in your storehouse. This is fine when thoughts are positive. Understanding this process, it becomes very obvious that it is important to offer the inner creative force positive programming. A good practice is to write your desires down and repeat them daily as your personal transformation plan. Feed your subconscious with thoughts that will work for your happiness and good. Begin by stating that your desire is being directed to the Infinite Source and your intention is to harm no one. Establish an attitude of gratefulness and keep with this discipline for a thirty day period. The subconscious will accept your suggestions and act upon them.

Janet Schlarbaum Ways To Happiness

Are You Delighting in Distractions?

By W. Alan Hickman

Article suggested by Janet Schlarbaum

We are more attractive when we plan for distractions.
On your way to accomplishing your targets, it is important to plan for and manage the distractions that will likely occur in your life and your businesses.

I have an author friend who said, in the midst of a distraction filled day, “I have so many distractions I can’t live my life.” To which I responded, “Jack, all those distractions, they are your life.” Changing the way we think about distractions can alter how often they show up and how they affect us.

“You are today where your thoughts have brought you; you will be tomorrow where your thoughts take you.” — James Allen

One new way of thinking about distractions is that they are simply small delays or rest-stops on your path to achieving your targets and opportunities for growth.

If you do not expect and plan for the likelihood of interruptions and distractions, when they do occur, they often appear as catastrophes and breakdowns; major obstacles or roadblocks, splitting your energy and preventing or stopping you from achieving your sales and marketing targets.

Distractions in essence are neither good or bad and they come in many forms.

* Taking a vacation or time to rest.
* Bringing a new employee up-to-speed.
* The resignation of a key employee.
* Physical illnesses or computer viruses.
* Tension between co-workers.

Take a moment now to consider and list the types of distractions you have experienced in the past that could possibly occur again in the future. This list, by it’s very nature, may be exactly what you need to stay clear and focused through the next distraction.

What Are the New Thought Concepts?

By M. Daniel Walsh

Article submitted by A Forever Recovery

Social movements are very organic things, they just sort of happen as people come together with a variety of shared beliefs.  We  call these shared beliefs a paradigm.  Paradigms are fairly loose things, often defying concrete definitions.  Most of the time, as in the New Thought Movement, the movement is sparked by an assortment of characters expounding and exposing distinct yet similar beliefs (paradigms) usually with commonly held elements.

For clarity’s sake; every movement is bound to have an assortment of leaders within it teaching similar, yet distinct version of the same thing.  The common elements held by all of these teachers make up the paradigm itself.  These common elements when taken together make up the paradigm of the movement, regardless of the core concepts themselves.

The reason this is important to understand is that the New Thought Movement has gotten really big all over the world in the last 150 years.  In fact it’s gotten so big and has so many well recognized leaders each offering their own versions of the same thing that it’s become pretty difficult to separate the forest from the trees and pin any sort of definition on it at all.  If you ask ten people what New Thought is, you’ll get ten different answers.

The Common Elements

What if we really did ask ten different people what the core New Thought Concepts are?  Each of them gives a unique answer, but are there elements common to the them all?

The New Thought Movement, like most other social movements has a tendency to both congeal, and defy congealment. Here’s what I mean, organizations like INTA (International New Thought Alliance), AGNT (Association for Global New Thought), and ANTN (Affiliated New Thought Network) have all emerged and sought to become the central body of the movement.

Each of these organizations seeks to present a common, unified face of the movement to the global community.  However, like those ten people who each offers us a different definition, the same thing happens across these massive international organizations.  Three central groups, three different Declarations of Principles.

This is all very natural and happens in any movement of sufficient size.  The problem is that with so many groups attempting to define the same thing in different ways, there’s a tendency for the static to become overwhelming.  So instead of looking at what makes them different, let’s look at what they all hold in common, we’ll call these common elements, “The Core Concepts of the New Thought Movement.”

* Core Concept One: Universal Spirituality and Divine Goodness The first core common across all new thought belief systems is the notion that there is a omni-present divine force of goodness pervasive though all things and people.  In nearly all New Thought Schools of the Thought, the concept of a divine force which is ‘pervasive’ and ‘inherently good’ are cornerstone concepts.
* Core Concept Two: The ability to align with this divine force The second core concept is that we, as humans have the innate ability to harmonize and align with this divine force of goodness.  Fairly universal within the New Thought Movement is the idea that: Health, Prosperity, and Love are all possible through aligning and harmonizing with this divine force. Extremist’s within the Movement hold that any sort of healing (including cancer and AIDS) can be accomplished with this alignment, and fantastic riches, beauty, and accomplishment are also possible through this alignment.

Is There Such Thing As Too Much Self-Help?

By Maryanne Comaroto

Article selected by A Forever Recovery

What a flipping fantastic question! When I was 33 years old I asked myself that very same question!! My library at the time brimmed with enough self-esteem-building, spirit-lifting, relationship-advising, co-dependent, neurotic, feminist, esoteric, astrological, paleontological, philosophical paradigms and relief to diagnose and heal several galaxies. From the esoteric: psychics, tarot readers, trance channels, holographic re-patterning specialists, aura color healers, palm readers, Reiki masters, past-life regression experts of the Far East Dharma, Karma, Buddha masters. I included the New Age, the poets and even the dead: Kierkegaard, Swedenborg, Kant, Borges. And I didn’t stop there: I devoured books on sex, business, the inner workings of the mind and ecstatic dance. If it was nonfiction and said “help” ANYWHERE in or on the book, I READ IT! I was on a path (with frequent intermissions) to find out EXACTLY how to be free and NOT suffer unless absolutely necessary. And even then was convinced I could find a way to diminish the likelihood of that. Yet, despite my drive in my particular quest to find immunity from pain, this form of my quest came to an abrupt halt at 33. I had crossed a line.

And funnily enough, just prior to that I had asked myself-or rather, I heard that still small voice that I hear and know as the Great Divine (sort of as if The Great Oz was God) inside of me say…and I swear it cleared its throat (okay, maybe not, but I like to think my inner guidance system has a tremendous sense of humor) “Maryanne…dear. Can it be, after so many years of relentless pursuit of the internal fortress you seek, that the answer does not lie somewhere in even one of these books?”

I was actually embarrassed, because for the first time I realized how profound the notion was. When you come down to it, awakening and staying awake is not a new concept. Yes, we are complicated beings, but many great people have devoted their lives to taking on the complex material of spiritual laws and have done a really tremendous job of breaking it down for us. Yet there I was, face-to-face with a question that led me across the abyss of awareness to transformation. It was time, at last, to take all “I knew” and actually create a practice. You see, I had become addicted to the buzz. A self-help junkie. And why not? I am pretty sure that of all my addictions this one actually paid off! But like all things the time had come for me to fish or cut bait. Change or die-well, I wanted to die, anyway.

Despite all this amazing information, I stood and looked at my life and could not figure out why, despite knowing “it all,” I was still suffering. Still in an unhealthy, unfulfilling relationship; still exercising poor choices, maintaining inappropriate boundaries, religiously entertaining recurrent negative self-talk, etc. And I knew it. This, my friends, was painful. They say ignorance is bliss. I said, after a 17-year quest to, in essence, wake up, I instead was faced with (in great detail) precisely what was wrong with me, simultaneously knowing better. Reminds me of a great line from a poem: “The fish in the water that is thirsty needs serious professional counseling.” Kabir

And then I woke up! Yup. Just like that. For me it took what it took, and, like all of us on a path, it takes what it takes. So could it be that had I read one book fewer I would have had my awakening, being delivered from suffering? Would I not have found that which I had sought my entire life? I can never know, it seems. What I do know is that I am often asked this question, I say to anyone that walks through my door or asks my advice on the matter: “What do you want? And what are you willing to do about it?” The answer for me was simple. I wanted true freedom of being and freedom from suffering. I said a prayer. “God, please show me the way!” And I woke up. But not before I had spent almost twenty years trying everything else!  And what I was willing to do about it? The answer was equally as simple; whatever it took! Staying awake for me, is what I had sought my whole adult life, And to stay awake included, among other things, developing a daily practice that fostered this gift I had received.

4 Steps to Reprogram the Subconscious Mind

By Greg Frost researched and posted by RJ & Makay

Your subconscious mind is hiding in the cabbage patch of your cerebral mind, and the reason that it is hiding is the same reason the governments of the world are hiding the nuclear weapons of mass destruction all over the world. This is because, as unbelievable as this may sound, your subconscious is a massive weapon of mass destruction.

It will be able to destroy your addictions, your phobias, your fears, your character defects and can give you the potential to do almost anything that you can put your mind to. No man or woman should have access to this power, but now, this is possible for you to simply reach down into your brain and reprogram your subconscious mind to be the potent tool that it has been designed to be. It does not matter how greatly you deliberately see in your mind’s eye your new-fangled residence or vehicle or liaison, your subliminal mind may be functioning in opposition to you.

At the same time as you might be intentionally envisaging profusion, your unconscious may be articulating apprehension on the subject of arrears. The unconscious consideration on the subject of money owing might actually pull towards you supplementary money owing into your existence. In view of the fact that the commandment of magnetism tells us that what we believe about for the most part is what we motivate to acquire, we believe we are focused on profusion, while subconsciously our intelligence is concerned about paying the rental fee.

Unenthusiastic thoughts cause distrustful behaviour prototypes, in the identical approach as gloomy behaviour blueprints cause nonconstructive judgment. Surely, you have definitely pay attention to the old adage of “sticks and stones might fracture your bones, but language will by no means harm you.” Well, words are capable of staying and being stuck in your skull; judgment can hold fast to your consciousness. Off-putting obsessions your folks, your companions, your arch enemies and even absolute outsiders have supposed to you, can grow to be engraved in the unconscious psyche.

Like a video recording, it continues to play, repeatedly, whether you are conscious of it, or not. Things you would by no means consider deliberately can be developed there deterioration your innermost opinions, incapacitating your very principles. The penalty can outcome in deep-seated divergence, conflict and every now and then whole misunderstanding. So, the four steps that you need to consider doing is to first of all relax, and learn proper breathing techniques. You need to find a mental equilibrium and then, practice some positive affirmations to start reprogramming your mind with.

Can Christians Use NLP?

By Douglas Cartwright published by RJ & Makay

If you are a Christian who has considered using Neuro-Linguistic Programming it is likely you will have be warned off it with statements like:

NLP is manipulative.
NLP is dangerous
NLP is a humanistic attempt to replace God.
Visualising is wrong.
NLP is a tool of the devil.

I know one minister in the United States of America who was actually asked to leave his church because he used some of the tools of NLP. He was and is a man dedicated to helping others enjoy and serve God.

So what’s all the fuss about? Is it really that bad or can Christians use the tools in service of spreading the ‘good news’?

I have been using NLP for 16 years and have been a Christian for 12 years. I don’t have all the answers but I have come to some conclusions about the use of NLP - the advantages and the dangers. I can only cover these briefly here but I hope my ideas are helpful.

One of the first things to consider is the philosophy of NLP. Any self help tool has a theoretical underpinning and the creators of NLP use a number of presuppositions (assumptions) to help them in their work, such as:

The Map is not the territory (what you think about the world is not the same as the way the world is)
People have all the resources they need to solve their problems
You cannot not communicate.
The meaning of your communication is the result it gets.
And many more.

As there are about 22, you can find many lists of these on the internet under ‘NLP presuppositions’. In fact, all therapists, coaches, psychologists presuppose things about you so don’t be fooled by any statements about ‘value free’ services. It’s values all the way down, folks.

The important point here is to examine these assumptions (and their explanations) and decide for yourself which of them align with the word of God.

It is also important to realise you don’t have accept these presuppositions as ‘true’ because even the creators say that these assumptions cannot be proved, they are just useful to use. The better news is that you can still use the tools without having to use or believe the ‘assumptions’ because they are not ‘laws’ just theories (as indeed are most psychological works). I know this from personal experience.

Because NLP produces some powerful results there certainly is a danger of looking to its tools to solve your problems instead of submitting them to God first, and then using the tools in his service. I have done this myself and there is a temptation to try and solve it myself first without giving honour to God. I think also there is the danger of treating NLP like a religion, another evangel of ‘good news’ because of its power to help people change.

But just as you go to a doctor who treats your body like an organic machine that needs to be fixed with medicine, you can use NLP to treat certain conditions of the mind - and make improvements. It’s no different and if you think it is, perhaps you should stop seeing your doctor because he doesn’t believe in God? And do you worship your doctor because he knows more than you about the way your body works? He uses his knowledge like a tool-kit to improve human functioning. A good NLP Practitioner can be like an engineer for your thinking processes.

Where NLP comes in useful is in its focus on human functioning and what you can do to function more effectively. NLP uses the metaphor of a computer to represent the human mind. Our ‘computer mind’ has ‘programs’ which create our thinking and behaviours and can be ‘programmed’.

This word is one of the things that people react emotionally to - ‘programmed’, especially when they hear about NLP courses where people are ‘put’ into deep trances and ideas are fed into their minds. A very human fear is the fear of being ‘controlled’ and so people stay away, not realising that the tools of NLP themselves are designed to put them at ’cause’ rather than effect. But if you don’t like a guided visualisation because you are concerned the trainer will put in his spin on ‘the universe will provide’ just sit out, or better still find a Christian NLP Trainer.

Of course, this means we can bring up the related idea that ‘NLP is manipulative’ and here I get a bit annoyed. Accepting this statement at face value is a bit like saying all Rottweiler’s are dangerous, or that every man working with children is a potential paedophile etc. In the UK we have a media addicted to creating scares that have led to people stopping eating eggs, chocolate bars, baby food etc.

Every knife is a potential weapon but that doesn’t stop a surgeon using one to cut out a cancer or you to cut vegetables in your kitchen. The issue is one of intent as well as usage.

I, and thousands of others, have used NLP to:

Create rapport leading to deeper more fulfilling relationships
Heal people of deep hurts helping them to lead healthier more enjoyable lives
Reconnect people with parts of themselves
Manage toxic emotions
Reconnect with their God-given abilities and talents

People have also used NLP to:

Seduce women
Con people into buying things they later realise they didn’t want
Create fear and phobias
Intimidate and overpower

It’s all a matter of intent. Would you stop reading the bible because of what happened at the Church for Mary and the restoration of the Ten Commandments (they locked all their members in a building and burned them to death). They read the same bible you do.

Because NLP can be used to communicate any idea more effectively, people who believe differently to Christians have mixed Shamanism, pagan ideas and all kinds of other beliefs about life, the universe and everything into their teaching. And so people think this is what NLP is about.

I think that using NLP has some potential problems, as you see above. But if you search around on the internet you can find sincere Christians who are attempting to sort the wheat from the chaff and use the ’safe’ end of the knife.

Environmentally Friendly - When a Good Planet Goes Bad

By Stephanie Barker

Article presented by Carlos Lama

Just like any landlord, our planet will not tolerate our irresponsibility when it comes to being residents. We’re messy, we don’t pick up after ourselves, we are unfriendly to our neighbors and we were never even required to pay a security deposit. In this case we both lose.

It’s not news that the state of our planet has been swiftly deteriorating. Is it any surprise? We have not been environmentally friendly residents of earth and it is beginning to retaliate. We see it in the escalating frequency and intensity of natural disasters all around the globe - the tsunamis, the hurricanes, the earthquakes, etc. These cataclysmic occurrences will continue as we keep destroying the earth’s equilibrium.

Our environmentally UN-friendly behaviors have thrown the planet off balance. If you thought the natural disaster were bad, think about the biological disasters we could be creating. The greater our negative impact, the greater the chances of more deadly diseases sprouting up and spreading around the world. Look at our third world countries, more disease is the last thing we need.

Speaking of the third world, as we continue to use up all our planet’s resources, war and terrorism will prevail as we need to fight for what has become scarce. We need to support our third world countries and discover the resources and knowledge they hold that could potentially save humankind.

“Might it not be cheaper to make friends of potential enemies than to defend yourself against them later?” - Bono

Mother Nature holds a grudge but she also possesses remarkable healing powers. If we take immediate action to reverse the way in which we are now poisoning the planet and sowing the seeds of our own demise, her restorative qualities will prevail and she will continue to take care of us with the bounties of her blessings.
