The Perspective Objective

Daily Success Motivation & Positive Thinking

Your attitude determines your flight path in life. Throughout our entire lives we are always positioning ourselves by perspective. How we see things makes all the difference in our world and thus the world at-large around us. No man or woman can effect change in the world around them without first having attained some level of perspective about his or herself.

perspective: the capacity to view things in their true relations or relative importance.

How we perceive our relationship to ourselves and the world around us plus our perceived relative importance is a key success factor in creating lasting change, maintaining successful motivation and keeping our thinking positive.

So, one of our daily objectives is to obtain a proper perspective about ourselves. The truth of the matter is that nothing else matters before what we think. It doesn't matter what the world does to you. It's what you think. It doesn't matter what the world says about you. It's what you think. It doesn't matter what you have or don't have. It's what you think. Nothing else matters before what you think.

Why...?
Why do we have E! True Hollywood Stories filled with people who seemed to have it all only to have experienced self-destructive behavior that brought their careers to a halt and sometimes their lives to an end?

Why do we have success stories of many people who pulled themselves from poverty, sickness and all manner of challenges and disadvantage to beat the odds and experience their greatest success goals?

We have these examples because it is what we think that makes the difference in everything. If you don't think you are successful and your thoughts are filled with fear and insecurity than no matter what level of success you are fortunate to experience, you will never be happy or satisfied. You will constantly seek approval and vice from external sources while never fully being able to come into the truth that you alone are enough and deserving of the best in life.

When your thoughts are focused on your true value and you have positive belief about who you are and your relationship to the world, you build unstoppable confidence and power. It doesn't matter what you lack and what you seem to face...you will constantly think from self acceptance and possibility. Where your environment may scream at you daily about your lack of resources or where others may scream at you about your lack of ability, your inner voice and thoughts will scream at you about your unlimited potential to live and live big!

Inspect and Connect
It is a good idea to take regular time out for good thinking. I recommend that you examine your inner life and put your perspective under a microscope. Start with hard thinking about the type of thinking you are doing. You need to especially look at your self-talk.

How do you routinely view the things around you and how do you routinely view your relationship to those things and to yourself? This is an exercise in determining what you really think. Who cares what everyone else thinks about you. Don't ask anyone else either. You may not like what you hear. There is certainly a time for that kind of feedback but it is normally beneficial to those who have a strong sense of self and/or a strong sense for change (and are humble enough to receive and act on hard truths).

You need to inspect your perspective and then connect with your best thinking about yourself and your relationship to the world around you. When you change your mind, it is just a matter of time before you begin to see whole life transformation. We are all always a single thought away from the change we desire. We are one idea away from our next breakthrough. Good and positive thinking are critical to your continued success because it is the difference that makes the biggest difference for your long term happiness..

If you think you suck then a million dollars will not make you happy. You will be a millionaire who thinks he or she sucks. If you think that you are valuable and that you have a contribution to make than you will feel big inside no matter how much or how little resources you may have at any given time. Your thinking makes the difference.

Thinking isn't always easy and is said to be some the hardest work one can do and which is why it is said that so few people engage in good thinking. But if you are willing to rethink your own thinking and design a perspective that supports your goals (you do decide your perspective by the way) you will not only obtain the thinking that makes the difference for you, but you always experience the change in yourself that is the biggest difference to your success or failure...the belief that you will succeed.

Your Comments

I enjoy reading your blog and think there is some awesome stuff on it.

Reading this particular post brought me to tears (not too many!), but what you are saying is so true, espically for me at this time. I am not thinking positively about ME. I use to, but a few potholes in my path have left me with bruises which seem to be where my thoughts focus.

So I will try and be more positive about ME and try to turn my self talk around.

Wish me luck!!!

T. L.,

Great Job!!! Glad to see that you're online encouraging folks to "maximize their potential"!

Your artilces are right on target! Have you thought about distributing them as free content for ezine publishers and webmasters?

Interesting in JVing? Let's talk.

Keep on keeping on, my brother!

Resourcefully,

Thanks everyone for the supportive remarks. Encouragement is a passion of mine and this blog allows me to reach others as I reach within myself to press towards greatness and powerful life change.

My posting schedule has slowed down a bit as I usually publish every 2-3 days or so. I'm in the middle of a home sale and the search for a new home to purchase so I thank you all very much for maintaining interest and readership! :-)

Amanda, thank you so much for sharing. Life is like that y'know. We hit those potholes and sometmes get stuck. We lose confidence and we lose sight of how special we really are. The potholes don't have to shave off that valuable self-esteem and self-love we need to sustain a happy, healthy daily life but it happens and that's okay. :-)

We forge our character and conviction each time we are able to bounce back and pick up our dreams again. Bouncing back is process that is sometimes painful, almost always challenging but will never fail and helping you to become bigger and better for the next go around.

Fight the good fight of faith Amanda and live our dreams out loud!

Etienne, thanks for sharing those words my friend. Much appreciated! What type of JV did you have in mind? :-)

DanceInside, you are welcome. I want to say thanks to YOU for reading and taking the time to share your feedback as well.

Best Regards,

TL
