Robert Shemin provides 6 rules for success:
1. Focus on solving problems rather than goal setting which most people fail to achieve. Identify a challenge and work to overcome it.
2. Be aware of your self-talk and language since 95% of our actions are controlled by the subconscious mind. Watch out for negative self-talk.
3. Manage your energy and productivity rather than just time. Maintain a high energy level through clear thinking and focus that energy where it is most productive.
4. Focus your energy on the most important information and don't get distracted. You control what you pay attention to, not external information overload.
5. Accept that mistakes will happen and perfectionism
2. Stop Setting Goals
Solve Problems: Goal setting is nice.
Most people do not obtain their
New Year’s resolutions. Instead
focus on positive activities and the
solving or ridding yourself of
challenges. What is a major
challenge for you right now? Attack
it, solve it, get rid of it!
3. Power of Language
What are you listening to? How do you speak to yourself? 95 percent of what we do is
controlled by our subconscious. Be aware of what you say to yourself such as “it’s easy”,
“it’s hard”, and “I can’t” or “how can I?” Be very careful about how you speak to yourself.
4. Productivity
Time / Energy Management:
Everyone speaks about time
management, but more important
it’s about managing your energy and
productivity. Keep your energy level
high through clear thinking and use
that energy for maximum
productivity. It’s not about how
much time you spend doing
something; it’s about the result and
maintaining your energy level on a
high setting!
5. Analytical Skills
Most people are distracted and spend
their time on useless information.
Focus your energy on what is most
important. In this fast paced
information age, we are bombarded
24/7 with information overload and
you have to analyze who and what to
pay attention to. Don’t let the world
run you. You are the one behind the
steering wheel, so make sure you stay
in the seat!
6. Perfectionism
Most people won’t start
something new, whether it’s an
investment or business, because
of the fear of making a mistake.
Everything is a test; if you expect
perfection you will be
disappointed. You have to be
willing to accept mistakes to
achieve success. Perfectionism
paralyzes. Laser focused action
and guts will catapult you to the
next level.
7. Making Each Day Count
Information, stress and time seem to
be flying faster than ever. You need to
breathe, relax and focus on each
moment. Every day and every
relationship matters. Pick your
priorities and focus on them each
day. Make sure to focus on your true
fulfillment!.
