Morning Vibes With Dr. Jerry - the First

Hello and welcome to #MorningVibesWithDrJerryTheFirst-Episode 180

Title:          The Top 5 Things That Are Hindering Your Success

There's no gain saying the fact that everyone wants to be rich. I am yet to meet a man or a woman for that matter who doesn't want to have so much money that they do not know what to do with it.

As being rich is equated to being successful, so a lot of people want to be successful. But that is just where it stops "wanting to" "wishing" "dreaming" , only a few people are willing to pay the price.

There is a price to success as there is a price to failure.

Here are my 5 top reasons why people are not accomplishing their dreams.

1.      A Lack Of Motivation.

Success comes from loving what you do.

In the traditional educational system that has been in vogue for ages, people are told to study hard, pass the prescribed tests and examinations, excel and then come out and walk into a good paying job of their choice; though this is no longer practicable but even for those who eventually get a job after school, majority are working jobs that they hate because it has no bearing to what they studied in College.

And so in this context, there is no motivation to beat the records, no motivation to excel at the job, life becomes a humdrum routine of going to work, being unhappy for the 8 hours and then getting home to land right in front of the television to catch some "fun" and distract oneself from the realities on the ground.

Is your current job your passion?

Highly successful people, have at least 1 thing in common: they love what they do and they do what they love.

Is this the case for you?

If the answer is no, you can start by identifying your passion.

This is the best way to get motivated.

2.      A Lack Of Faith

Faith is a firm belief in yourself, God or others that you can do it.

The Holy Bible describes faith as "the substance of things HOPED for, the evidence of things NOT YET SEEN"

Even though this is not a lecture on faith, but it is important to point out the basic ingredients in that definition of faith as given above.

You have faith for something you are hoping to get, no one exercises faith for what they already possess and though you are waiting for it to manifest yet you are walking and working in such a manner as to say that it is already here (evidence of things not yet seen), you have not seen it but you are acting and behaving and talking like it is already here.

This is powerful

When people lack faith in themselves, it is extremely difficult to succeed at life's tasks

Build up a strong vision of what you want to accomplish.

In developing a vision, the law of attraction is going to work for you.

You are going to attract people, opportunities and money that will allow you to develop an unstoppable confidence.

3.      The Fear Of Failure

The fear of failure doesn't exist. Neither does the fear of success.

Fear stands for False Evidence Appearing Real.

Micheal Jordan said himself that "Fear is an illusion".

It is hard to overcome fears.

Fear is inbuilt in us as nature's protective mechanism; so fear is meant to protect us from harming ourselves, for example running into a moving car or train or jumping out of an airborne aircraft - such fears are healthy fears; however there is the unhealthy fear which we have cultivated from since we were kids - the fear of failure or even of success as the case may be.

The fear of failure simply paralyses us from taking actions to improve on out lot in life. We fear what will become of us if we fail in the process, we fear what will happen to our integrity, we fear what others will say of us and all that.

The fear of failure is the product of a negative mindset and one simple way to overcome the fear of failure is to suffuse our minds with positive thoughts by reading inspirational stories and quotes of people that achieved their dreams.

Read one every morning.

That will give you strength and hope.

4.      The Wrong Strategies

A lot of people fail to achieve their goals and realize their dreams because they are busy trying to 'reinvent the wheel" - that is a wrong strategy

All systems in the world already have their wheels invented donkey years ago and if any man goes to reinvent that wheel, he is only playing to the gallery, rather what to do is to oil the bolts and nuts and make the wheel functional again.

When you want to build a business, to achieve something really big, you need to have mentors.

These are persons who have already done what you are trying to do and have excelled.

You can't allow yourself to lose time, money and energy.

Mentors are people that will give you the right strategies; they will provide the right information and will inspire you.

They will coach you through the process.

Choose correctly your experts, your models. Work with them and adopt the same thinking patterns, the same strategies, the same beliefs.

If he did it, you can do it too.

5.      Limiting Beliefs

Often times we have limiting beliefs about what we want to achieve.

These limiting beliefs most of the time come way back from our childhood, when we were stopped from having what we considered then to be fun, sometimes we were even punished for exercising our "rights", we were told what to do and what not to do, we were reminded of the so many failures in the path we want to walk, we were limited both physically and psychologically.

For example, you can really want to achieve a goal but at the same time something tells you: "It's not for you, you don't deserve that" or "You can't do it, remember".

These thoughts pollute our minds and darken our life.

A quick way to stop these damaging thoughts is to use the power to say no!

First, represent in your mind the "limiting belief" and say NO! to it.

Now, represent in your mind what you want in its place and say a big YES!

You will be amazed how your attitude suddenly changed about the old belief.

That is the power of word and belief substitution.

Whatever it is that you want to achieve, and your mind becomes a stumbling block, CHANGE THAT MINDSET and dominate it and you would become that which you want to become or achieve that which you want to achieve.

Morning Vibes With Dr Jerry - The First-Episode 87/Tomorrow Is Not Promised

Thursday    30th November 2017 Morning Vibes With Dr. Jerry - the First Hello and welcome to #MorningVibesWithDrJerryTheFirst-Episode 87 Title:          Tomorrow Is Not Promised, Live In The Now!! I have taken a look at how people postpone for tomorrow what they can do today and it really bothers me. It bothers me, not because I am not a believer in planning for tomorrow or even next tomorrow but because the thought process behind the action is that of saying that we have all the time in the world and so there's no reason to hurry. It is this thought process that has left many a man unable to fulfill their destinies and a whole number of others unable to finish the projects that they have started. The story is told of the man who was the head of the family and was expected to pass information about the family to the younger ones, but he kept pushing it forward. Each time the young ones asked for info...
