The people who receive the most are the ones who give the most!
This is true of individuals, but also for businesses. If the focus is on how we can give the absolute best service, then the profits will follow. If a company is only focused on profits, they miss the big picture and will always be scurrying for business instead of having clients chasing them.

The Millionaire Mindset - Where is Your Focus and Attention?
By Raj Arvin
The key to achieving any goal in life is to focus your mind on the outcome that you want to achieve. When soldiers march into battle they focus on victory over the enemy not defeat, when athletes begin a game or competition they focus on winning not losing.
Achieving wealth is no different you have to focus your thoughts on the riches you hope to accumulate not the poverty you wish to escape. This is the Millionaire Mindset that you've probably heard about. Millionaires become millionaires by focusing their minds on the money they hope to accumulate not the obstacles in their way.
To acquire the Millionaire Mindset you'll have to learn to focus your mind on the goals you want to achieve and ignore the negative consequences of failure. This is a far harder exercise than you might expect but it is something that anybody can achieve through focusing on the outcome.
The Millionaire Mindset like success in sports, politics or war is created by focusing on the final outcome not on the things that occur along the way. For example a person who has achieved the Millionaire Mindset can ignore temporary setbacks such as a momentary lack of money. Just as soldiers can ignore the loss of one battle and concentrate on final victory at the end of the war.
Such focus is far harder to achieve than most of us think because of the way the mind works. When most people are told to ignore something they think about it. For example when you go to the dentist you are told not to think about the pain the dental drill might cause. Naturally all you think about at the dentist is the possible pain you might feel. The result is that you become scared of the dentist and his drill even though you know that the dentist is there to help you by fixing the problems with your teeth.
A similar thing occurs when most people try to gain the Millionaire Mindset. Instead of focusing on the riches they want the people focus on the potential obstacles to achieving wealth so all they think about is the obstacles. After awhile these people condition themselves to think that achieving wealth is impossible and give up.
The way to overcome this destructive thinking and achieve the Millionaire Mindset is to focus on the final goal and not the momentary setbacks. You have to condition yourself to think about the end goal every time you encounter an obstacle to your plans. You have to convince yourself that the day to day struggle to pay the bills is only a temporary state that you pass through on the road to final success.
One way to do this is to condition yourself to think about the final outcome that you want everyday. For example the amount of money you want to earn or the things that you want to do with that money. The trip to a foreign country, the big house you want to buy, the car you want to drive, the amount of money you wish to give to charity or the colleges you want your children to attend. Constantly thinking about these things will enable you to focus on the final outcome rather than the day to obstacles.
Once you have achieved that focus you'll be like an Olympic athlete so focused on the final goal, you ignore all the obstacles between you and the goal. When you've done that you'll have achieved the Millionaire Mindset.

Fear
Some mornings I wake up in fear of my wife. Or is it in fear from my life! I don’t seem to be getting as much done as I should. I am not acting on the things that I say are important to me, or at least not as fast as I think I should. I am not producing, I am not achieving, I am not, I am not, I am not!
Replace this kind of talk with I am, I am, I am, I am and then follow that with any positive affirmation that you like! For example, I am smart, I am able, I am intelligent, I am prosperous, I can do all things through God who strengthens me!
This will lead you to new opportunities and a better life!
AMEN!

Being Successful!
The most important part about being successful is continuing to move toward your dreams. You will at times become fatigued, discouraged, experience delays and even defeat along the way.
Just pick yourself up and keep moving toaward your goals. If you persist, you will most certainly acheive them.

Regret
"You'll seldom experience regret for anything that you've done. It is what you haven't done that will torment you. The message, therefore, is clear. Do it! Develop an appreciation for the present moment. Seize every second of your life and savor it. Value your present moments. Using them up in any self-defeating ways means you've lost them forever."

Imagine and Watch What Happens!
Build a propsperous image of yourself on the screen of your mind and watch what happens!
Regardless of how tough things get, continue to hold your personal picture of prosperity. You will very likely run up against circumstances that will, for a time, almost have you convinced you are going backwards: persist anyway.
Continue to imagine your personal picture of prosperity and understand that what is happening to you now is what must happen to prepare you to receive the good you desire.
Bob Proctor, "You Were Born Rich"

Going With the Flow – Or Following The Call?
By Joseph McRae, Mellichamp Emeritus Professor of Management Science, The University of Alabama
I celebrated my 70th birthday this summer, and much as I hate to admit it, I spent the first half of my life going with the flow rather than following any sense of calling. Here is some proof:
• I chose to go to college at Georgia Tech because I was given an academic scholarship there, not because I had a passion to study engineering.
• I chose my major (industrial engineering) after first trying chemical engineering and finding it distasteful, and then architecture and concluding that I didn’t have the talent.
• I enrolled in ROTC and served in the military not because of a sense of patriotism but because I wanted to avoid being drafted and serving as an enlisted man.
• I selected my branch of service, the Air Force, only partially because I wanted to become a pilot, but also because Army and Navy guys had to clean a rifle.
• I selected my Ph.D. major, operations research, because I could complete the degree requirements in minimum time, not because of a passion for OR.
• I chose my dissertation topic in an area for which I had no interest simply because a government agency funded it and I had a wife and family to support.
It wasn’t until I was well established in academe that I truly started becoming more intentional about my life endeavors. What made the difference?
While walking across the campus one day in the mid 1970s I reflected on the obituary of a very well-known university colleague I had read about in the local newspaper the previous evening. As I walked, I pondered, “What would I want my obituary to say about me when I die, hopefully years from now?” I decided that I would want it to say that I used my position, my gifts and abilities, and my opportunity to impact my university and higher education for good and to reach my colleagues and students for Jesus. I’m sure, looking back, that God was putting these thoughts in my mind as He affirmed my calling to the university.
For the next 20 or so years, I devoted my efforts to trying to understand what it meant to be called as a Christian professor to have an influence for Christ in academe and to be obedient to that calling. About ten years ago I read Os Guinness’ profound book, The Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life, and as I read, it was like a light dawning and the pieces falling into place. Here are a couple of insights:
• “Calling is the truth that God calls us to Himself so decisively that everything we are, everything we do, and everything we have is invested with a special devotion and dynamism lived out as a response to His summons and service.”
• “The truth is not that God is finding us a place for our gifts but that God has created us and our gifts for a place of His choosing—and we will only be ourselves when we are there.”
What about you? Are you going with the flow or following the call?
