			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Linda hated social events. She found them frightening and felt that all eyes were on her from the minute she walked into the room. The glaring eyes squinted, scrutinising her inch by inch, from top to bottom, seeing through her skin and into her deep feelings, her feeling of low self confidence. </p>
<p>Here is how Linda recalled how she changed her self-identity from being scared in social situations, to being confident and at ease in any social setting by changing only one small thing in her life:</p>
<p>&#8220;I used to really hate going to work social events and family get-togethers; especially my husband’s family Sunday lunches. Even though I’d been married for over ten years and knew his family for a long time, I still felt awkward and out of place.</p>
<p>In both situations it seemed to me that everyone was laughing and having a great time, easily mixing and mingling with both people they know and didn’t know. Oh, how I envied them!</p>
<p>I always felt embarrassed and uncomfortable in these situations. I felt wide eyes examining me, dissecting me, looking through my shield of having no self confidence. </p>
<p>I used to shake nervously as I stood quietly in a corner somewhere, on my own. My cramped uneasiness probably showed from the tense look on my face. I would look down and avoid catching someone’s glaring eyes.</p>
<p>At work events, I would stick close to someone I knew well for the duration of the event, subtly looking at my watch from time to time counting the minutes until it would be appropriate for me to leave and go home.</p>
<p>When I learned about confidence building methods and how one small change can have a knock-on effect on many areas in my life, I decided to have a go and I do one thing differently that I haven’t done before.</p>
<p>I decided to walk into a social situation alone, with a magnetic and contagious smile on my face, shoulders upright and my head held high and to make eye contact and say, “Hello” to anyone who so much as looked over at me. I would simply pretend that I am feeling very confident.</p>
<p>I had no idea what impact this small change in my expression and posture would have on my experience. But I can tell you that I have never been the same since.</p>
<p>I now easily approach people and strike up a conversation. And, likewise, people come over and talk to me. I smile and laugh more as the conversation grows. This makes me feel happier, more confident and more at ease.</p>
<p>Since then, I have used this simple method of making one little change in a single area of my life to initiate lots of other changes. This has really given me a confidence boost in so many ways, and in so many areas that I feel like a changed person already.&#8221;</p>
<p>By the way, this could be you. You could easily be the Linda in the story.<br />
Believe that you can have self confidence in one area, in one part of any area and build on it, one step at a time.</p>
<p>You can do it… Linda!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A quick from the heart message.</p>
<p>I would like to share with you something that I have known for a while yet kept it to myself for some reason. </p>
<p>Last night, I literally rolled off of my bed and fell onto the floor knocking my bed side light which in turn knocked my CD collection of my favourite inspiration songs.</p>
<p>It was not until I was having breakfast that I realised that this sequence of events was not a coincidence. My rolling off the bed was not the result of a nightmare or a full stomach. </p>
<p>There was a message behind it.</p>
<p>And the message was for me to inform others about the power of music; how music can influence our lives in many ways, one of which how music can make us better people, how music can make us achieve much more in life.</p>
<p>Aside from the many things we loved and respected about Michael Jackson, his music was a shining beacon to us, – to say the very least. The words and lyrics said and reflected a lot about the world we live in.</p>
<p>Many of us sang his songs, danced to his songs, cried and laughed to his songs.</p>
<p>Michael Jackson&#8217;s songs sent out many messages; some of which are messages of love and messages to save the human race. Messages for us to save ourselves.</p>
<p>Why am I saying all this?</p>
<p>I suppose you could say &#8216;the coin dropped&#8217; when Michael Jackson passed on to the other life.  His music and legacy will stay with us forever. His music will continue to influence and affect us.</p>
<p>So will the music I am about to tell you about.</p>
<p>We all know, I&#8217;m sure, that music can really move us emotionally, in one way or another; into a happy and cheerful mood, or into a tearful and sombre mood. </p>
<p>Did you know that music can also affect your success?</p>
<p>Did you know music can motivate and inspire you to achieve many of your personal and professional aspirations, goals and dreams?</p>
<p>The right kind of music has the power to change your life for the better!</p>
<p>Seriously!</p>
<p>You know this, because you feel the affect of Michael Jackson&#8217;s music. So if you have music with powerful motivation and inner power words, you will feel inspired to follow-up on and achieve your goals in life.</p>
<p>I would like to share with you <a href= "http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?af=1000268"> Success Songs </a>. It is there where you will find incredible inspiring and motivating songs that can take you to the next level of achievement and success.</p>
<p>Check them out! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the face.&#8221; Helen Keller</p>
<p>These are great words of wisdom from someone who lived and breathed self confidence. If anyone should think ill of the world it is surely Helen Keller.</p>
<p>Yet she did not allow her situation to stand in her way.</p>
<p>As a deaf and blind person she went on to be an amazing and inspiring author and activist. Her self confidence was as strong as ever, never giving in to her lack of sight or language.</p>
<p>What can we learn from this?</p>
<p>We can look at our habitual thoughts, and ask ourselves, What can we change? Which thoughts are working against us? Which thoughts are not giving us the desired results or outcomes?</p>
<p>Much like Helen Keller, we can transform our negative emotional habits into beneficial habits; ones that will have us look at ourselves and the world from a different perspective. One that is empowering and enhancing.</p>
<p>As you focus on attaining constructive emotional habits, change will take place. You will see and feel yourself improving and becoming more and more self confident. </p>
<p>And as you do, step out of your comfort zone and do something you would normally not do. Once done, celebrate that action and reward yourself.</p>
<p>Enjoy the success that comes with having empowering emotional habits.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I am so glad I found this video on YouTube for you to really drive through to you the power of your thought.</p>
<p>As Louise Hays points out:</p>
<p>&#8220;Every thought we think, and every word we speak, is creating our own future. Our thoughts go out into the universe, and is accepted, and brought back to use as experience. We just think, think,&#8230; &#8221;</p>
<p>My entire <a href="http://www.insight4you.com/main.html">Insight4you</a> website is based wholly on the belief that we can create our life with our moment-by-moment thoughts.</p>
<p>Thoughts lead to feelings which will lead into specific actions that are in line with your thinking.</p>
<p>All actions begin with thought. All success begins with thought. The computer you are reading this from began as a thought.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Do you recognise those annoying, nagging voices in your head that say, &#8220;No. You can&#8217;t do that&#8221; or &#8220;You&#8217;ll never finish off this project&#8221; or &#8220;Are you nuts? You&#8217;ll never get that promotion&#8221; or &#8220;You suck at interviews&#8221;?</p>
<p>Would you like to know how you could quickly be rid of these thoughts, not allow them to run your moment or life and have fun doing so, and dramatically boost your self confidence?</p>
<p>Well, here&#8217;s one great and fun way to tackle those annoyances AND boost your self confidence:</p>
<p>Have fun. Really. Acknowledge those nagging thoughts and have fun with them. Blow them sky-high, out of proportion. For example, if you&#8217;re off for an interview and you&#8217;re feeling nervous and anxious, exaggerate that nervousness in a FUN and happy way. </p>
<p>Imagine yourself sitting in front of the interviewee and see him as Mickey Mouse or Snow White. See yourself having fun together, chatting about all the movies Mickey or Snow White were in. Imagine you are both having a great laugh, remembering parts of certain movies, laughing wholeheartedly.</p>
<p>Hear yourself saying the right things, hear the interviewee smiling and laughing, nodding his or her head in agreement with you.</p>
<p>A step further?</p>
<p>If you are a fan of Mickey, imagine the interviewee IS Mickey, and really go overboard. Have great wild fun. Laugh more, reminisce more.</p>
<p>Finally, hug Mickey and thank him for giving you the time to have fun with him, and you look forward to working with him.</p>
<p>Will that work? It does. I did myself (honestly).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Confidence comes not from always being right but from not fearing to be wrong.&#8221; Peter T. Mcintyre</p>
<p>So what if you&#8217;re wrong? You learn from your mistakes and move on. Mistakes or failures will not kill you. Being wrong will not kill you. It&#8217;s not the end of the world. Use mistakes, failures and being wrong as life&#8217;s learning lessons.</p>
<p>As best as you can, do not dwell on them. Write down what you have learned and move forward. This way you are sure not to repeat the same mistake again.</p>
<p>Ask yourself, What can I learn from this mistake, this failure (I hate this word) or from being wrong? How can I change direction and move one step forward.</p>
<p>This is the way you will learn more and gain more experiences in life – although it&#8217;s better to learn from other people&#8217;s mistakes.</p>
<p>Remember, as corny as this may sound, success could literally be just round the corner; it could be the next step or action, perhaps the next phone call.</p>
<p>Make mistakes. Learn. Be confident. Carry on.<br />
Have failures. Learn. Stay confident. Keep going.<br />
Be wrong. Learn. Increase confidence. Keep at it.</p>
<p>Mistakes, failures and being wrong are very important steps to success. Use them in the right way!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s to success!</p>

<p>Last night I went to see someone I haven&#8217;t seen for a while. Over a light dinner, we spoke about all sorts of things, until our conversation went dead when he said, &#8220;I can&#8217;t believe it. I did it. I can&#8217;t believe it.&#8221;</p>
<p>I immediately stopped him. &#8220;Why can&#8217;t you believe it?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Oh, it&#8217;s just an expression,&#8221; his word stumbled as his eyes searched the restaurant for a distraction.</p>
<p>No, it&#8217;s not just an expression. That&#8217;s how many people live; through the I can&#8217;t believe it lens.</p>
<p>To achieve things in life, aside from having unstoppable confidence, motivation, persistent action, you must believe in yourself and in your capabilities.</p>
<p>To make it short, go to my website (link below) and listen to what Anthony Robbins has to say about the Power of Beliefs (it&#8217;s about 10 minutes short). Then download my free ebook Establish Powerful Self-Enhancing Beliefs. Read it and email me your thoughts.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We know that the mind is a goal-setting organism; it loves goals and loves to achieve them no matter what. So, knowing that and knowing what it is you want in life, how do you set about programming these goals into your goal-achieving unconscious mind?</p>
<p>One extremely powerful and effective way of programming your mind is through affirmations – positive statements said over and over in a specific way. </p>
<p>The statements, in time, will programme your mind through imagination. As you hear or say the affirmations you will imagine that statement as in the present – done and achieved.</p>
<p>When you imagine the affirmations while in a relaxed state it will be very hard for your unconscious mind to do anything else but make those affirmations a reality.</p>
<p>Unsure what affirmations you can use?</p>
<p>If you go to the website below and scroll down, you will see e free, no opt-in download of Insight4you.com True Thoughts 2008/9 e-book. It contains a lot of affirmations you can use for many occasions.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the link:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.insight4you.com/main.html">http://www.insight4you.com/main.html</a></p>
<p>Make use of the affirmations. Pick the ones you like and use them daily, every day until what you want has happened. Look into a mirror and shout them if you can; if you can&#8217;t say them out loud in your mind and imagine them as if they have already materialised.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Now that we have established that you want to be more confident, it is important that, as well as taking the appropriate action to make it happen, you have to expect that you will have the self confidence that you seek.</p>
<p>Your brain, or more concisely, your unconscious mind is a goal-seeking organism. It loves goals, and it loves working towards them. When you set the goal of becoming self confident in a particular area of your life, it works day and night to make that happen.</p>
<p>They key here though is that you must set your unconscious mind to work on what you do want, as opposed to what you don&#8217;t.</p>
<p>In other words, making it your goal to &#8220;not make a mess of your presentation&#8221; instructs your unconscious mind to make a mess of the presentation. Your unconscious mind does not understand negatives.</p>
<p>If say, you do a Google search on &#8220;not make a mess of my presentation&#8221; you will get over 14 million ways of making a good presentation, power point presentation, how to make a presentation, good presentation design. Even Google doesn&#8217;t understand negativity! And your unconscious mind is like a computer – we&#8217;ve heard that many times.</p>
<p>So phrase what you want in the positive: &#8220;I will make a fantastic presentation&#8221; or &#8220;I am going to make the best presentation yet.&#8221; Come up with a sentence that means something to you, that makes you smile and go for it. </p>
<p>Expect it and you will get it. There is no room for doubt. Believe and expect.</p>
