It’s Not What You’ve Been Told

Why, with all this time, money and energy being spent on “self-help”, are so few people actually living the life they really want?

Another way to ask this is:

Why are millions of people who’ve spent so much time and money trying to improve themselves STILL going down the road of life with one foot on the brake?

There actually IS an answer to this seemingly unanswerable question. But like most vexing problems, to answer this question, we must first ask a deeper question. The deeper question we need to ask is:

What Causes Human Behavior?

While there may be many ways to answer that question, here’s what I’ve found to be, at once, the simplest and most accurate answer to that question. It’s a simple answer, because I’ve found (and I’m sure you have, too) that the simplest solutions tend to create the best results.

The Scales of Success

Picture a balance, like the scales of Justice you’ve seen in one of those courtroom TV shows. It’s an instrument for determining weight that has a fulcrum at the center, from each end of which is suspended a plate.

On one plate, imagine that we have something called Your Why-To’s. These are your internal motives or Reasons Why to do something. On the other plate, we have Your Why-Not-To’s – your internal Reasons Why Not to do something.

Let me give you an example from your own life. Why are you reading this article right now? The answer is very simple. You’re reading this article because you perceive that there are more Benefits of reading this (another word for Why-To’s is Benefit) than Costs of doing so (another word for Why-Not-To’s is Cost).

Your perceived Why-To’s or Benefits of reading this article might include:

- I want to learn what the world’s most successful people do, so I can do that in my own life

- So I can stop sabotaging myself

- So I can make more money

- And finally get my foot off the brake

- And this will make me happier, because I can live the life I’ve always wanted

- And quit this job I hate

- And take more vacations

- And have better relationships

- And lose weight

- And find the love of my life

- And buy a new car

- And a new house

- And get out of debt

- Did I mention I’ll finally get my foot off the brake?

What about your Why-Not-To’s or Cost? Those might include:

- I have a million other things I could be doing right now.

- Who is this guy, anyway, and why should I listen to him?

- What if I get to the end and still haven’t learned how to get my foot off the brake?

- What if it works for everyone else, but not for me?

- What’s he trying to sell me? I’ve been burned before and I don’t want it to happen again.

- Did I mention all the other things I could be doing right now?

Your mind is like an infinite weighing machine — every moment, your mind is weighing your perceived Benefit against your perceived Cost of doing any behavior or activity you can think of.

Can you see that every decision we make is built upon our Why-To’s and Why-Not-To’s?

- Where you live

- What you wear

- What you eat (and how often you eat it)

- What kind of car you drive

- What you do for work

- Who you decide to marry — or not marry!

- What you had for breakfast this morning…

All of these were determined by your Why-To’s and your Why-Not-To’s. In fact, every decision you’ve ever made in your life was based on your internal Why-To’s and Why-Not-To’s: your reasons why you thought you should do the thing vs. the reasons not to do that thing.

After I left college (for the first time), I became the most highly educated under-achiever you ever saw. I found myself in a series of dead-end jobs: secretary, waiter, clerk; I sold kites, sold sweaters (not at the same store, of course); I even cleaned toilets as a housekeeper. And each job I hated more than the last.

During those long, lean years, two questions burned inside of me:

“How could someone with so much education have achieved so little?”

“Why are people who are dumber than me so much richer than I am?”

So I did what anyone would do in that situation:

I started studying the phenomenon called “success”. I bought every book, listened to every CD, and went to every seminar I could. I spent lots of time, money and energy trying to answer those two questions. It took me years and years of hard study.

And after all that time, effort and expense, the question I now had was:

“How could someone who’s spent so much time and money studying “how to succeed” still be so broke?”

Then one night, quite by accident, I finally discovered the answer – the answer that changed my entire life. Not only did it explain MY life; more importantly, my discovery has given tens of thousands of people around the world the answers in THEIR search for Success.

And I was shocked to see that even though the answer had been right in front of me all along, NOT ONE of the “success gurus” I’d spent so much time, energy and money on had ever mentioned it before.

Why Am I Sharing These Secrets?

I’ve already told you that I’ve personally helped tens of thousands of people from all walks of life to enjoy more wealth and happiness. What I didn’t tell you was that it was for a much bigger purpose.

I started my company with a vision of what I wanted to create. I wanted to create a System that anyone from any background could learn, do and teach, that would give them the skills and tools to become highly successful doing whatever they wanted to do — and I wanted to create a company that was much larger than just myself, so that we could help the millions of people who, through no fault of their own, are struggling to get ahead and succeed.

Now, I have achieved my vision. But, the next phase of growth for my own company is going to force me to scale back tremendously on the number of hours I am able to personally coach and mentor people. My greatest mission now is to train and grow coaches who can duplicate what I’ve done with my students, and empower more people than ever before to have the tools to financial freedom.

What this means is, aside from a very select group of business professionals, most people may never get the chance to work with me personally. That’s why I decided it was time to get this information out there, so everyone could benefit.

One More Thing

If you’re looking for the same-old “motivational” clichés or methods you’ve heard a million times, you won’t find them here. If you’re looking for information that tells you that you don’t have to do anything to create what you really want, I’m sorry to disappoint you.

We’re going to break some rules and make hamburgers out of some of self-help’s most sacred cows.

I’m fully aware that some of my methods may seem odd at first blush. That’s the point! If you already had everything you wanted, you wouldn’t need more information on how to get it, now would you?

If ever there was a time in human history when we needed to apply a new level of thinking to create a world we can all live successfully and happily in, it’s now.

Recently, I was in Los Angeles having lunch with some friends who are millionaires and deca-millionaires – people worth $1 million to $10 million and up.

As I looked around the table, something made me smile. I noticed that none of us looked remarkable in any way. No one was wearing an expensive suit — some of us looked like we were on our way to a pool party. We weren’t discussing anything particularly deep or earth-shattering. I realized that we were really average in every visible way. You would have probably walked right by if you saw any of us on the street.

So what did this group of “regular people” do to enter the top income bracket in the world — while most continue to struggle and just get by?

And more importantly…

How can YOU learn their “secret code” so that you can enjoy this kind of success in YOUR life and business?

Wouldn’t you like to know:

- What separates the top 3% from the rest of the world?

- How to get rid of the head trash that’s holding you back?

- A little assumption that’s costing you a fortune.

- The foolproof formula for getting your foot off the brake, tailored specifically to YOU, so you can succeed over and over again at whatever you choose.

You’re probably asking yourself these questions right now. In fact, as I’ll show you, it’s impossible for you to not be asking yourself that question.

So let me answer it right now.

As Founder and CEO of SuccessClinic.com, I lead an international success training company. Over the last 10 years, people and organizations in over 40 countries have used my methods to get better results in their lives and businesses with less time, money and effort. I’m privileged to have thought leaders in business, sales, productivity, and human potential endorse my programs.

But things weren’t always this way. Not by a long shot. While this is kind of embarrassing to admit, I have a confession to make.

When you listen to nearly every other “success speaker”, you’ll hear stories like:

“he or she was a #1 salesperson in every company they were in…they had a paper route while still in the womb…or they became a millionaire while the rest of us were still playing video games.”

Well, my story is just the opposite of theirs.

After skipping 8^th grade, graduating 2nd in my class, being a National Merit Scholar, and attending college on full academic scholarship, you would think I had a great future ahead of me, right?

Well, you’d be wrong. In the next article, I will share more…

But Those Hallways Can Kill You!

By Guest Blogger – Noah St. John

In my teens and early twenties, I worked as a professional ballet dancer. It was ridiculously hard work for dreadfully little money. The punishment we put on our bodies was comparable to that of a pro football player, except for 1/1,000th of the salary.

One night during a performance, I felt something go “pop” in my left hip. Even after MRIs, X-rays, and physical therapy, none of the “experts” could find what was wrong. I was forced to retire at age 22 and start a new career doing…

But that was the problem. Because I was physically unable to do my job, my livelihood – and the only career I’d ever known – was stripped away from me without my consent. Today, millions of people who are perfectly able to do their jobs now find themselves in a similar position.

Much of the hallway chatter at a recent business conference centered around the economic downturn and how people are responding to it. Yet even the rosiest predictions show that most of the jobs that have been eliminated won’t be coming back. So how do you find a new livelihood after your old one is taken away from you?

It’s vital to remember one thing (that no one told me back then): your livelihood is not your LIFE. For many, their livelihood is more than their sense of worth; it’s their identity. “I am an engineer. I am an author. I’m a doctor.”

What you do for work is not who you are. But because so much of our selves gets wrapped up in our work, the real secret is knowing how to separate your livelihood from your life. But how do we do that?

After my career-ending injury, I crossed the country going from one dead-end job to another. I knew I was looking for something; I just didn’t know what it was.

One night in October 1997, I happened to attend a seminar and had an epiphany that changed my life. I “accidentally” discovered why so many smart, talented people hold themselves back from reaching their full potential – and realized that it was exactly the OPPOSITE of what we were being taught in traditional success programs.

After all those years of wondering and wandering, I finally discovered my purpose on Earth – to teach people the formula to get rid of the head trash that’s holding them back and live a truly rich life. The irony was, I didn’t so much find my new livelihood as much as it found me.

When your livelihood is taken away, you have to fight to get it back, and fight for your sense of self. The problem is, since most of our Systems of Support are created at work, it feels like those get taken away, too.

After the only career I’d ever known was taken away from me, it took me more than eight years to regain my sense of self, find my true purpose, and start getting paid for doing what I love. But you don’t have to take anywhere near that long. That’s because today’s connection tools like Linkedin, Facebook and Twitter give you the tools to build – or rebuild – your Systems of Support faster than ever.

If you’ve lost your job, or are simply trying to reinvent yourself, start with these questions:

What do I really love to do?

Make a list of the Activities you love to do – the things that make you feel strong. Write everything you can think of, from writing to speaking to making trades to meeting new people. The sky’s the limit.

What have other people told me I’m good at?

List what other people have praised you for. You can also interview your friends and ask them what they see your Strengths as being. You may be surprised by their answers!

What VALUE can I bring to other people by doing what I love?

Personally, I would love to get paid for going to the library and reading books all day. The reason they don’t pay me to do that is because it doesn’t provide much VALUE to other people. (Or maybe I just haven’t figured out how to market it yet.)

Remember that people pay money for what they perceive is VALUABLE TO THEM. So you must first figure out how other people will benefit when YOU do what you love.

Who is currently doing what I want to do and getting paid for it?

Now, list the people who are doing what you love to do and are making a living at it. This is your “hit list” of people who have cracked the code of making money doing what you want to do.

Who do I know who might know those people?

This is where the connection tools I was talking about come into play. Today’s connection tools make anyone you could want to meet only a few mouse clicks away. You’d be surprised how accessible even the top people in your industry are. You just have to ASK.

How can I meet and provide Value to those people?

The secret to living a truly rich life comes down to one word: VALUE. The more Value you add to people’s lives, and the more people you add that Value to, the richer your life will be.

It’s true: after one door closes, another one opens… but those hallways can be a bee-atch.

Follow these proven steps and you’ll come out the other side a little wiser… and a whole lot richer!

You Know How to Lose Weight, Here’s Why You’re Not Doing It

Let’s face facts: every one knows that in order to lose weight, all you have to do is eat right and exercise. But a new diet book appears on the bestseller lists about as often as Hollywood releases a new Amy Adams movie.

So why, with this avalanche of “how to lose weight” information, are Americans still getting fatter by the nanosecond?

Here’s the surprising answer no one’s talking about: It’s NOT because you need more “how-to’s” of losing weight. It’s because you need to uncover your hidden Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight.

Judy, a 55-year-old working grandma from Texas, had tried every diet and exercise program out there. She’d lose weight temporarily, then gain it right back and beat herself up.

I asked her in our coaching sessions why she didn’t want to lose weight – to list her Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight. Judy realized for the first time that she believed that keeping the excess weight would protect her.

I asked her, “Protect you from what?” She said that excess weight gave her a feeling of security, because it shielded her from unwanted advances and allowed her to feel “mostly invisible”.

Many of my working mom clients have said the exact same thing. Shedding excess weight means a number of things to the psyche, and while we think they’re all positive, not all of them are.

Once Judy identified her hidden Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight, she lost 24 pounds in the seven weeks leading up to Christmas. Yes, you read that right: she LOST weight while the rest of America was packing on the holiday pounds.

Oh sure, you’re saying. It’s one thing to lose weight. But did she keep it off?

You’re right. As of this writing, Judy isn’t down 24 pounds. She’s down 42 pounds.

If you’d like to save yourself a lot of time, money and frustration, stop looking for a magic “how-to” of losing weight. Instead, ask yourself three simple questions:

1. What will I GAIN by losing weight?

These are your Why-To’s of Losing Weight. These should be relatively obvious: “I’ll look better, I’ll be healthier, my clothes will fit better, I’ll live longer, I’ll feel sexier.”

2. What will I LOSE by losing weight?

Your Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight hide in your subconscious. That means, you don’t go around thinking about what you’re going to LOSE when you lose weight; but your Why-Not-To’s are lurking beneath the surface of your consciousness like the bottom of an iceberg. And unbeknownst to you, they’re secretly controlling your behavior.

Many working moms have discovered surprising answers to this simple question, including: “I’ll lose my ability to disappear; I won’t feel safe; I’ll feel vulnerable; I’ll have to buy a new wardrobe; what if my partner/boyfriend/spouse isn’t attracted to the new me; what if my friends are jealous of me?”

That last one can be particularly prickly, because, well, women can be downright mean to each other. You’d think that your friends would support you in your weight loss efforts, right? Try losing 20 pounds in seven weeks like Judy did, and you’ll learn who your REAL friends are (and aren’t).

And finally:

3. Which one is greater: my Why-To’s of Losing Weight, or my Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight?

No one can tell you whether you should or shouldn’t lose weight. That’s a private decision only you can make.

But you can – and should – answer the question for yourself, once and for all. And let go of the angst about (and stop looking for the “magic pill” for) losing weight.

And in case you’re wondering why Oprah Winfrey has fallen off the weight loss wagon over and over (which she has talked about extensively), the simple answer is that she hasn’t fully come to terms with her Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight.

Clearly, Oprah can work with any personal trainer or dietician she wants. But all she really has to do is uncover her hidden Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight, and she’d get off the roller coaster ride. (Oprah, by the way, if you’re reading this: Call me. Happy to help.)

And once YOU identify your hidden Why-Not-To’s of Losing Weight, you’ll never have to fall off the weight loss wagon again – and you’ll stop spending your hard-earned money on “how-to’s” of losing weight that you already know.

Saying to a working mom “don’t let money affect your relationships” is like saying “don’t let oxygen affect your breathing.”

Without one, it’s awfully hard to have the other.

What I tell my coaching clients who come to me with money worries is that money doesn’t CHANGE anything; it REVEALS everything.

Money acts as a magnifying glass. If you’re a poor jerk, you’ll be a rich jerk – only jerkier. If you’re a broke nice person, you’ll be a rich nice person – only nicer.

And if there are problems simmering beneath the surface in your relationship, those problems will only be exacerbated when money’s tight.

So in these tough financial times, how can we make sure our relationships stay healthy (even if our 401K doesn’t)?

Here are five relationships assumptions working moms need to avoid when money is tight:

1. Assuming money is everything.

It’s true: the best things in life are free. But the mortgage, groceries and Internet service aren’t. We’re hearing stories everywhere about how people are cutting back on non-essentials; but why did it take a financial crisis to do that?

The fact is, if you have to spend money to enjoy each other – and indeed, life – you’re actually facing a deeper issue. We’ve been indoctrinated to believe that “Things = Happiness” and therefore, “If you have more things, you’ll be happier”.

But study after study shows that there’s a point where having more things creates an INVERSE relationship to happiness. That’s why I counsel my clients to take Goal-Free Zones where you walk in nature or work in your garden, because this will help you focus on what you already have, instead of what you don’t.

2. Assuming a change in your money situation won’t affect the relationship.

This is the flip side of the first assumption. Remember: money doesn’t CHANGE anything; it REVEALS everything. Be aware that when you experience a significant change in your money situation, your relationship’s about to change in one way or another.

But the irony is, it will become more of what it already is. If you’re close, you’ll tend to get closer. If there’s a distance, it will become more noticeable. The cure for this is to communicate openly and honestly about what’s happening and what you can do about it.

3. Assuming things will turn around by themselves.

Also known as the Ostrich Syndrome. We’ve all been there: believing that “someone out there” will fix our problems. As FDR said, “When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.”

It’s good to assume that things will be better in the future. The problem comes when we think they’ll get better without us having to do anything.

$20 bills tend to NOT walk down the street, knock on your door and say, “Hey, can I come in?” If they do where you live, I’m moving to where you live! Because on the planet Earth, we have to do this annoying thing called work to get the things we want, like, oh I don’t know… money.

If you know what to do, but just aren’t doing what you know, you can break through that wall by enlisting support, creating an action plan, and taking one step at a time toward what you want. That’s fastest way to overcome the Ostrich Syndrome.

4. Assuming you and your partner look at money the same way.

No assumption causes more arguments than this one. People tend to fall into four behavioral styles with regards to money: The Spender, The Saver, The Avoider and The Monk.

Imagine a Spender and a Saver living together. Now imagine their income just got cut in half. Insert argument here.

There’s no “right or wrong” with regards to how you relate to money, although each style has its pros and cons. Just know what you are and what your partner is, and adjust accordingly.

5. Assuming things will be this way forever.

This is the “Why Bother?” Syndrome, the flip side of the Ostrich Syndrome. When you assume “why bother?”, your actions will be half-hearted (or some other part of your anatomy), which will naturally lead to half-success, or less.

The key is to find the middle ground between the Ostrich Syndrome and the Why Bother Syndrome. This is where Afformations, or empowering questions, have helped many people make better assumptions about life and their relationship to it.

Asking Afformations like, “Why are things getting better?” and “Why did everything work out better than I thought it could?” focuses your mind on positive assumptions, rather than negative ones.

We all have to work to overturn our unconscious assumptions, especially negative ones about money and relationships. But do the work and you’ll reap the rewards of healthier relationships with your partner, your money and yourself.

Noah St. John is an interesting guy. He’s developed a completely new way of approaching “positive thinking”. I’ve seen him many times on TV and always found what he had to say to be very inspiring. So much so, that I asked him to be a guest blogger. I wanted him to explain this new word he’s come up with called “Afformations” so we could better understand how we can use this powerful technique in our own lives.

It’s with great pleasure that I introduce to you Mr. Noah St. John.

Traditional success teachers have been big advocates of “affirmations” – repeating statements that you’d like to be true. For example, a classic “affirmation” is: “I am rich.”
Okay. Try it. Say “I am rich.”

What just happened? Did you hear a voice in your head that said: “Yeah, right!”?
The problem with “affirmations” is that they don’t work for most people. Why? Because you’re trying to convince yourself of something you don’t really believe.
Have you ever been persuaded to try “affirmations”… and then had… absolutely nothing happen?
Me too. And about a billion other people.
One morning in April 1997, I was taking a shower and thinking about how the human mind is always in the process of asking and seeking the answers to questions. For example, if I were to ask you “Why is the sky blue?”, your mind would start searching for the answer. So I asked myself a logical question: “If the human mind is always asking and searching for the answers to questions, why are we told to repeat positive statements we don’t believe? Instead, why don’t we ask ourselves empowering questions – questions that will force us to change our thought patterns from negative to positive in order to answer them?”
Take a statement like “I am rich” – to which the brain replies “Yeah, right!” What’s the empowering question you should be asking instead?
That question might look something like this: “Why am I so rich?”
Try it. Ask yourself “Why am I so rich?”
Do you know what your brain is doing right now? Searching for a positive answer to that question!
The staggering realization I made that morning in April 1997 was that you create your reality in two ways: by the statements you say to yourself and others, and by the questions you ask yourself and others. Until then, no one had fully realized, or shown how to harness, the awesome power of what happens when you change your questions.

I named my discovery The Afformations Method.
The 4 Steps to Creating Afformations That Change Your Life

Step 1: Ask yourself what you want.
You can use a goal you’ve previously written down, or start from scratch. You decide.
Please note that traditional success teachers stop right here. They tell you to “set your goals” and then say “affirmations” in an attempt to convince your brain that you will have what you want… sometime, somehow, somewhere.

Let’s use Brandon from Utah as an example. He wanted to make more money doing something he loved. He was an insurance salesman who’d spent $30,000 on every “how to succeed” program out there, with no results. So for his goal, he wrote: “I want to be all I can be in life.”

Now, the breakthrough step…

Step 2: Form a QUESTION that assumes that what you want is already true.

Forming a question that assumes that what you want is already true is the key to creating Afformations that change your life. Your life is a reflection of the subconscious assumptions you make. That’s why Step 2 of The Afformations Method is to change your communication with the world inside yourself. Afformations are the fastest, most effective way I’ve ever seen to immediately change your communication with the world inside of you AND the world outside of you.

So Brandon began afforming: “Why am I allowed to be, do, and have all that I want in life?”

Step 3: Give yourself to the question.

The point of Afformations is not to find “the answer”, but to ask better questions. When you ask better questions, your mind automatically begins to focus on what you have as opposed to what you don’t have.

Once Brandon began to afform what he wanted, his mind automatically began to search for the answer. He started doing things a little differently and talking to people with new confidence.

Which brings us to Step 4 of The Afformations Method – the one you MUST do to get optimum results…

Step 4: Take new ACTIONS based on your new assumptions about life.

Even though Brandon had spent thousands of dollars on every “how to succeed” program out there, he subconsciously assumed they wouldn’t work for him. So they didn’t.

After learning about Afformations, he realized that this was what was keeping him from what he wanted. So he began to take new action on the very programs that had not worked for him.

He began calling more people. He followed up with more confidence. By focusing on what he had instead of what he lacked, positive results naturally followed.

Once Brandon followed the four steps of The Afformations Method, his sales tripled in 30 days. In less than nine months, his income increased 560 percent and he was named Agent of the Year.

The point of Afformations is not to find “the answer,” but to change your questions. When you follow The Afformations Method, you will form empowering questions that immediately change your subconscious assumptions.

For example, Andrea had been trying to get pregnant for more than a year but had a huge mental block. She thought she didn’t deserve it, her body couldn’t do it, and so on. After her psychologist told her about Afformations, Andrea began asking herself “Why do I conceive so easily?” and “Why am I so fertile?” Within a month, she had a positive pregnancy test. Now she’s asking herself, “Why do I carry my babies full term?”, “Why am I free from morning sickness?”, and all kinds of questions that are making her feel great during her pregnancy.

Omar, a car salesman, had been selling only one or two cars per month and making less than $500 a month in commissions. Then he started afforming, “Why am I so successful at selling cars?” – and in just two days, he sold four new cars, three used ones, and made more than $1,800 in commissions.

Judy, a 55-year-old grandmother from Texas, wanted to lose weight but told herself she was too old. In November 2008, she joined my Platinum Weight Loss Club. I recommended that she start asking Afformations like “Why do I lose weight so easily?” and “Why do I love eating healthy foods?” During the holidays, while most of America was gaining weight, Judy lost 24 pounds. Today, she’s lost 42 pounds and feels fantastic.

Can you see how this process must, by definition, change your life? Using Afformations, you can take conscious control of your subconscious thoughts – change the questions, change your results, and change your life!
