Success and Power Part 1

Success and Power Part 1
"The Quest for Power"
We are often put in circumstances that there is a need for us to show our potential to gain power. It may be for us to make a change in something or contribute to its greatness. Is it wrong? Nope... Even the good want power. However, what is bad is the reason why we want power and how we use it, or get it.

Goals are targets we set to achieve something. Goals and targets vary from simple to difficult goals to achieve. It does not necessary mean that a difficult goal is a unachievable. With the WILL POWER + RIGHT STRATEGIES = You get SUCCESS.

Our number one thing that we need to control in our life is emotion. Emotion is derived from motion. Without motion, we can't have emotions. I am sure you are like thinking, what the shit is Wesley talking about. Think of it this way, a world where there is no motion, everything is still, how can we have emotions? Or even picture your bestfriend crying at your side, it involkes feels of sympathy with your friend. Isn't that emotion? Thus, emotion is the result of motion.

Next, comes Focus.
FOCUS = FEELINGS

"Our past does not equal to our future, unless you focus on it," Anthony Robbins.
We got to focus on how we feel and as a result, our mind will be tuned to a positive note in order for us to have a clear focus on our goals. Agree? How can you aim to be a millionaire when you are always so negative about life?

We've got to master our own states. Changing our actions is how we can overcome this in order to accomplish the basis of performance. Do you noe that sound, is very influential in changing the way we feel? When we listen to an emo song, subsciously, it sends signals to our brain to make us feel down. However, if we listen to happy songs, it tends to boost our morale. Even in movies and cartoons, they use various sound effects to inflict different emotions from the viewers. Did you ever realise the importance of sound? So therefore, changing our state, means changing our physiology, and as a result we tend to be more focused on our goals.

Every human being has to have what they want. It is depending on the quest for survival or success. Look at Donald Trump, he suffered from bankruptcy many times, one of which was in 1990 after the recession. Yet, he was still determined to be rich and stand up on his two feet. Was he negative about life? No. Though he always portrayed the character of a grumpy old man who fires many of his employees, in his mind, he is always had a positive mind and was forward-looking.

So, to wrap up this entry on Success and Power Part 1, it is not always the case of people being rich cause they are lucky nor have the connections and so on. Do not create excuses for yourself. Create opportunities. If you think you have not many connections, start making those connections. You first have to have the mentality of a successful person, be optimistic. Just remember, negativity gets you no where else but down.
