Creating Unstoppable Momentum

Friday, July 11th, 2008

Three keys to creating unstoppable momentum in your life:

- Clarity
- Congruency
- Consistency

Clarity means discovering what you are designed to do and identifying your greatest motivations and talents.  Clarity allows you to have realistic expectations
of what you can and can not do.

It’s one thing to know what you are designed to do. It’s another to do it. When it comes to congruency, most of us are rather badly out of alignment.
You may need to make some adjustments. Most will be incremental, but some  may be radical, such as changing professions. The goal is to spend more time
using your strengths. That’s where performance and satisfaction both peak.

Consistency means staying with it. Have you ever been caught in traffic in a large city? You accelerate as the light turns green, only to stop at the red
light on the next corner. This pattern of starting and stopping repeats itself  over and over as you make your way to your destination. It’s impossible to
gain any momentum.

The secret to gaining momentum in your life is to do what you are designed to do over a long period of time.

Eye Watching

Monday, September 18th, 2006

Eyes can tell you a lot about someone, so watch eye movements when you ask someone a question. It is usual that if someone goes de-focussed or looks up, they are going into a memory or into imagination. If they look down and to the right, they are going into a feeling. If their eyes move to the right or left, they are often talking to themselves or listening very carefully. It’s useful to pick up eye clues, because it can help you know where another person is going in their thinking!

Life should be divided into 3 categories

Rest, Leisure and achieving goals.

If you have difficulty identifying an activity as one of these, you shouldn’t be doing it

Motivational Drivers

Monday, September 18th, 2006

What motivates us?
There are two main types of drivers that exist. Towards drivers and away drivers, most people are one or the other. A towards person is the type of person that is committed to success, they want things; they set high goals. They rarely settle for thing that aren’t on there path. Incentives work well with these type of people.

People who respond to away drivers are normally driven by pain, stress and other unpleasant thought. Those who do respond to away drivers are normally not as motivated until an unpleasant event happens. Once the unpleasant thought has dissipated people who do respond to these drivers often then relax again and go back to normal. Away people are often great problem solvers, but would raely leave a job until such drivers came into play.

The ideal would be to have a careful balance to these two drivers, and use them appropriately. Eg: in a meeting you will have the two types of people, allow the Towards people to come up with the great ideas, then let the away people come up with solutions why this wouldn’t work.
