Top 5 Signs that You’re Stuck at Work By Sandra Ford Walston

In tough economic times, it is easy to feel stuck, stuck in the wrong job, stuck in a failing company or stuck in the unemployment line. But a slow economy does not necessarily mean that you have to remain stuck. In fact, getting stuck at work usually has very little to do with the state of the economy, and many of us may be stuck without realizing it. Let’s look at five main reasons why people get stuck and what you can do to overcome these obstacles.

Success Through Wrestling By Ty Bennett

Ty BennettWhen my brother Scott was a freshman in high school a friend convinced him to go out for the wrestling team. Scott had never wrestled before, and worse yet, he only weighed 92 pounds. The lowest weight class was 103 pounds, so he was giving up nearly 10% of his body weight every time he wrestled.

His freshman year was a disaster. He would come home bruised and exhausted everyday after practice. It was painful to watch. Even more painful, though, was the fact that he lost every single match the entire year. My Mom hated it so much that she literally offered Scott $500 to quit wrestling, but he decided to persevere.

Daily Disciplines for Effortless Success By Jack Canfield

Jack Canfield - motivational speaker and authorHands down, one of the most popular questions I’m asked by students is this, “Jack, what are your most important daily actions that you correlate with your success.”

In fact, Oprah Winfrey asked me a similar question just days before appearing on her show. She asked me to come up with some easy-to-apply steps for her viewers to start applying The Law of Attraction in their lives.

One of the basic first steps is to determine, write down and talk about what you do want, not what you don’t want. Be as specific as possible. Once you have clarified what you want, do the following each and every day.

Overcoming the Terror Barrier By Bob Proctor

Bob Proctor - motivational speaker and authorThe first ten years of my life were spent in Owen Sound, Ontario. It’s a small town a few hours north of Toronto. I can vividly remember spending the summer days with my family at Harrison Park where there was a really great swimming pool.

I would watch as the older kids went up the ladder to either jump or dive off the high diving board. They were having a great time. Wanting to be accepted by the older kids, I too went up the ladder … reluctantly, but I climbed it.

Win Don’t Whine! By Pegine

Pegine Echevarria motivational speakerCut it out … please. I’m so tired of hearing people whine instead of appreciating what they have. You and I have a lot. We have way more than most people around the world. Yes… others may have more, but so what!

Here is what WHINE means to me…

W – Wrapped up in their issues (self absorbed)

Whiners are wrapped up in their own issues and they want everyone to know it. They are so “happy” that they have someone who is listening to their problems. They really believe that all of their defeatist, self serving, petty complaints are interesting to others. If you listen to whiners you are just giving them attention they don’t deserve.

Stop Looking For a Job, Start Looking for an Opportunity By Darren Hardy

Darren Hardy - motivational expert and authorA lot of jobs that once were, aren’t coming back. Ever. To look for what isn’t there is a waste of time and an insult to your dignity.

If you haven’t noticed, the world has changed — radically. The traditional yellow brick road to success and financial security has imploded. The path to a high-paying job used to involve getting the highest academic degree you could obtain, along with specific technical job skills, to start climbing the ladder. Today, most of the ladders are decimated. If those jobs still exist, the needed knowledge and skills of those jobs have changed… and change again every day.

Is the glass half full or half empty? Who cares! By Larry Winget

Larry Winget - personal development speaker and authorIt doesn’t matter if the glass is half full or half empty. The only thing that matters is whether it quenches your thirst. In other words, does it work?

There are literally thousands of motivational speakers spouting ridiculous platitudes that do nothing more than make you feel good for the moment and have very little lasting effect. They sound good, but they don’t work. Let me prove it to you. I bet you’ve heard these lines:
