Achieve Your Potential Power Thinking Newsletter by Dr. Houston Vetter, Peak Performance Expert Issue #9 Quick Quality Info Welcome to the 9th Power Thinking Newsletter from: www.achieve-your-potential.com http://achieve-your-potential.blogspot.com/
--------------------------------------------- I FOUND A KEY TO SUCCESS, Have You? Last newsletter we discussed First Things First, Developing a Well-Defined Intention. We started out the article with: Tools and skills needed to get what you want 1-Well Defined Intention A key to Success is "The rules you follow are determined by the tools you use." Well, here we have the four point outline, the map, the menu, the four things that we MUST do to get whatever it is that we want. Leave one out and we go without. Remember all four of these steps of the process are going on at the same time, kind of like a circle. We are already doing these things because whatever we are getting involves these four pieces or the lack of ONE or more. This issue of the Power Thinking Newsletter is about an old business axiom which is; without the ability to measure a problem or situation it will not be solved, at least by you. The next biggest problem one faces in getting what it is we say we want after we set our Well-Defined Intention is not ‘Calibrating’ where we are to where we want to be. There is one more step to make this a lot more useful and we’ll address that later. AND the biggest motivators of all -“feelings”- are not dealt with. Therefore, people continue to do the same things over and over again and expect to get different results. (They say that is the definition of insanity. I wonder who ‘they’ are and how do they know this?) When people don’t get the results they want they get depressed, anxious, sad, frustrated and even mad. Usually the blame is pointed at other people or outside situations.
They ‘compared’ instead of ‘calibrated’ and in a way that causes them to stay stuck or even worse, spiral down deeper into what they don’t want. The comparison of what I want and what I don’t have creates frustration. And yet a Key to success is "Calibration as a tool", on the other hand (you have 5 different fingers-My Grampa Vetter) moves us into a position of Power. And remember Power = “Knowledge in motion” (wisdom). (Click here for Part 2 of this newsletter)
