Learn to Break Through Without Breaking with The Master Mind

What is the most important topic in the world relative to our success?

The most important topic in the world relative to our success is clearing the pathway to success of anything that could keep us from winning success.

My 64 years of experience with this topic have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt there is only one thing that has ever held me back from winning any prize I sought to win – my own negativism.  It was self created, self generated and totally supported by the whole universe.

That’s it. There’s nothing else.

Some years back I wrote a list of The Top 70 Ways To Conquer Negativism to help others learn this valuable lesson and that is the basis of this article. To receive the whole list, simply follow instructions below.

The Wedding Song has a line which helps us learn to use the Master Mind. “It’s hard to believe in something you’ve never seen before,” goes the song.

We can see the brain, but not the mind, yet from our bodies to our bank accounts and the whole of the environment in which we dwell we see the productions of the mind all about us.

How does one learn to trust something we can’t see? How can we use that invisible something to face the great unknown today? How can we recover from unconscious negatives if they are not conscious?

Let me share the prime example this writer uses in coaching, and then I’ll deliver an exercise we can use to break through any challenge or negative experience in our present environment without breaking who we are. And, yes, the word is, “any”.

One of the things I love most about The Master Mind is that it is instantly accessible at any time and applicable to what is happening right now so I use it extensively in my coaching work trusting what it will do. In coaching it’s a must because we must respond to the moment fully present to who we are. What happens with this approach? Amazing insights surface, completely new designs applicable to real life challenges, and million dollar ideas strategies and plans are created through coaching session interaction for which clients praise me, but I tell them, “It’s The Third Mind working through the second mind we create together in our coaching alliance. It’s not just me, it’s we.”

Here’s an example.  A “C” level executive client in a fairly new job expressed concern about building momentum and keeping the vision alive beyond his first 90 days at the company. Some would call this the end of the honeymoon period. We had done extensive coaching work on applying the concepts in the book, “The First 90 Days,” and he had written and implemented an absolutely brilliant plan through his first three months to achieve some outstanding results. Still, he was concerned.

That still small voice from within me was moved as he described the situation. This suggestion came through me, “Why not create your Second 90 Days Plan?” He had never thought of that. “Brilliant,” he said. He did and the momentum he immediately enabled is living proof the honeymoon need never end. Now this wasn’t just another goal plan, it was a plan based on the concepts from the book he had developed his first plan from only now he elevated everything to the next higher level.

Someone said, “Problems are what we see when we take our minds off the goal.” Negativeism can set in when the mind is made idle, distracted, conofused or otherwise turned away from our purpose goal or objective. This is a discipline of the mind essential to success.

Walter Russell put it this way:

“The thinking of creative and successful men is never exerted in any direction other than that intended.” Walter. Russell

Applying the strategies in “The Top 70 Ways to Conquer Negativism” can not only help us stay focused on where we are going, it can help us develop our character and esteem and get there much faster with new insights and direction mapping out our course. So, the Master Mind Exercise this week is to pick one or more of the four ways described below and apply it to a specific situation. If there is no negative situation to attack apply it as a preventive measure to build up a stronger life affirming mind set for success.

Here are 4 from the list of 70:

  1. Determine to not tolerate negativism. Andrew Carnegie offered PMA, a Positive Mental Attitude as one of the 18 Laws of success and found negativism so intolerable he fired anyone in his company who practiced it. Harsh? Perhaps. However, it has been determined even one negative person in a large company can have a negative effect on outcomes and mission completion.

16. Challenge your breaking point. We are doing things today we never dreamed could be possible for us five years ago. How did that Happen? We challenged our self beyond our breaking point emotionally, physically, or mentally in the growth or learning process. We can do that in any area at will to break through without breaking.

44. Replace one negative Television program with one positive book. Sounds, simple because it is. Try it.

66. Make only perfect mistakes. Worrying about making mistakes can lead to procrastination, so focus on progress not perfection. Every mistake we pay attention to and make adjustments from helps us make it more perfect. That’s the value of the daily debrief or reality check.

Some of these can become lifelong success habits, others become tools to be called on and used as needed like the hoe in the garage is used to dig up weeds. Anyone with a challenging amount of negativism to face, or even a little will benefit immensely from building a complete tool kit or arsenal of strategies and tactics from the list to access whenever the need occurs.
