This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that My good friend Michael Hall posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
Chapter 8 (Think And Grow Rich -- Napoleon Hill) - Decision: The Mastery of Procrastination (The Seventh Step Toward Riches)
Last week, Michael Dlouhy outed me as a green personality type, and I'll admit, I procrastinated a bit on admitting he was right. Then he said something to me, via email, that sent the message home, "Michael, being a green is a blessing, when you are coachable. The reason that people come to you for help is because you make sure to get all of the information." The moment I read that, I decided to accept myself as the green personality that I am.
That decision lifted a massive weight off of my mind and liberated me to have the best week I've had in my adult life. I haven't stopped smiling (other than MAYBE when I'm asleep) since.
Today, I listened to a song and heard it in a new way. I will quote it here, then share my inspiration from it:
"Titanium"
(feat. Sia)
"You shout it out,
But I can't hear a word you say
I'm talking loud, not saying much
I'm criticized but all your bullets ricochet
You shoot me down, but I get up
I'm bulletproof, nothing to lose
Fire away, fire away
Ricochet, you take your aim
Fire away, fire away
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium
You shoot me down but I won't fall
I am titanium"
It reminded me of when Michael says, "When you have truthful, accurate information, you become 10 foot tall and bulletproof."
Having the truthful, accurate information about my personality, and making the DECISION to accept myself, and LOVE myself for it, has made me bulletproof!
Now that I know myself, and what my needs are, I feel more empowered to follow the "platinum rule," a modification of the golden rule, which is, of course, to "treat others the way you want to be treated."
The "platinum rule" is to "treat others the way THEY want to be treated. Not the way YOU want to be treated."
As a green, I love getting all the information I NEED about a subject. But the other colors, don't NEED the amount of information that I would always drown them in. Now, I can tend to my own needs, and only share the information that other people need, the information they ASK for. So, I have DECIDED, only to share information with people, when I have their permission, when they ask for it, and only what they ask for.
As my teal mentor, Steve Porter, has pointed out, the 2 minute story is a great way to do that. I've also decided to be coachable, and follow my mentor's example.
In honour of Steve's request, I will also share that when I learned how to evaluate a 5 Pillar Company, I struggled in the realization that the company I was with was NOT a 5 Pillar Company. When I realized it, I couldn't physically bring myself to share "Success in 10 Steps" with people, because I knew that I lacked the integrity of the information I would be sharing. After procrastinating for a few weeks, I made the DECISION to join a 5 Pillar Company, and within the first month since joining, I've had over 10 ebook downloads.
It is with tears of joy and with a smile from my heart that I thank Michael Dlouhy for helping me to discover the truth about myself, and to both he and Linda for sharing their inspired Mentoring For Free system with us.
I love each and every one of my Mentoring For Free family members. I thank you all for sharing your brilliance with me, and allowing me the opportunity to share mine with each of you!

Decisions And Why You Need To Make Them By Margi Starr
This is a direct quote from a "lesson" that My good friend Margi Starr posted in our 30 Day Mental Cleanse forum :
Chapter 8—Decision
Most of us in network marketing have heard someone say:
.....I’ve made the Decision to join your company.
.....I’ve decided to try one of your products.
.....I have finally decided that I’m ready to start building my business.
I get excited when I hear those words. In my mind I envision how great it will be to mentor this person and help them experience success with either my products or the business opportunity.
But then my texts and phone calls go unanswered.
I used to wonder, “What did I do wrong?”
The reason why Napoleon Hill includes a chapter called Decision in his book, is that so many struggle with making a Decision and following through on it. That’s why Network Marketing requires so much personal development. At the first hint of struggle, it’s easy to go MIA. It’s easier to hide than to come out and face one’s fears.
It’s not about me as their mentor, it’s about them.
Hill talks about how some people boast about all they are going to achieve. “I’m going to be at the top of the pay plan before you know it!” “This is going to be easy!” “I’m gonna rock this thing!”
Then reality hits. BAM!
Instead of pushing through the fear and insecurity, all kinds of things start happening. In many cases Busyness comes in and takes over! It’s amazing how schedules fill up with so many activities there’s no time to be on calls, much less learn the skills. How many times have I heard, “I’ve been so busy!"
BAM!
Another Potential Millionaire is victimized by loads of clothes that need to be laundered or soccer games that need to be watched.
Maybe it’s the multitude of church activities that are calling our name and we are the only one who will step up and serve. Worthy activities for sure, but over time they can derail us from that which will make it possible for us to buy the entire soccer team new outfits or give outrageously when the offering plate is passed.
It all comes back to that sometimes irritating word Decision. If Decision was easy, everyone would do it. If Decision didn’t cost something, everyone would jump on board.
But Decision has a price tag. It means giving up those things that steal time. It means investing in skill development. It means staying close to a mastermind group and being accountable. It means posting your Why in front of you, so that you have the strength and focus to press on 24/7.
As I look back on my own journey, I see the times when I too made a half-hearted Decision and didn’t keep my promises to my sponsor or myself. I hid and often went MIA. But once I made the Decision to become part of the Mentoring for Free community, I have stayed the course. I have never second guessed the Decision to be part of this or to be part of my company. Never.
What Decision is calling out to you today? Is it time for greater commitment or less Busyness?
Take some time, be very still, and listen. The answer is within you.

You mean I Have To Plan And Organize To Succeed!
CHAPTER 7
ORGANIZED PLANNING: THE CRYSTALLIZATION OF DESIRE INTO ACTION
The Sixth Step toward Riches
I was listening to "Minute With Maxwell" today and a got a real Ah Ha moment. John mentioned that we all get the same amount of time. You cannot manage time, it passes by at a steady rate, which is the same for everybody.
So how come some people can do so much more than others? AS John Maxwell puts it so clearly, its not how much time you get, it is WHAT you do with your time that counts. You can't just go about your day doing this and doing that. You end up having accomplished nothing.
That is why it is so important to plan and organize. Plan your day and follow your plan as closely as possible. You will hit snags that cause you to not be able to do some of what you have planned or some activity will not go the way you planned. You call a student and you have to leave a message instead of talking to him or her. As Hill tells us "Temporary defeat should mean only one thing, the certain knowledge that there is something wrong with your plan. Millions of men go through life in misery and poverty, because they lack a sound plan through which to accumulate a fortune."
So plan, do, review, adjust.
I am grateful that Michael and Linda created MFF and the Mental cleanse.
I am grateful that I get to meet and communicate with all who participate in the Mental Cleanse by posting lessons and speaking up.
I am grateful to infinite intelligence for allowing me to be part of the group as well inspiring me to contribute to the group.

Imagine That! You Just Need To Imagine It! Who Knew?
CHAPTER 6
IMAGINATION: THE WORKSHOP OF THE MIND
The Fifth Step toward Riches
Hill tells "It has been said that man can create anything which he can imagine."
I have started reading Bob Proctors's book "You Were Born Rich". I chapter three he talks about image making. What that is, is simply you imagining yourself as if you had already reached your goals whatever they may be. He uses prosperity as an example. So, imagine yourself prosperous no matter what your current situation is. Create an image of that on the screen of your mind and hold it there consistently.
Bob says it better than I could evr "Someone got tired of sleeping under a tree and they built an image of a roof over their head and on and on we go. Out of the cave into a condominium. We have truly built the world we live in.
Columbus imaged a new world and you and I are l0iving in it. The Wright Brothers imaged us being propelled through the air and introduced us to a new kingdom. Samuel Morse imaged himself interrupting the flow of energy through metallic wires and gave us the telegraph with the Morse code. Copernicus imaged a multiplicity of worlds and now we have been there.
Through the years, history has recorded the results of great visionaries. In fact, everything ever accomplished was at first, and for a time, nothing more than an image held in the mind of the architect. Realize, now, that you too are the “mental architect” of your own destiny."
He also says "That is what the great artist, Vincent Van Gogh, meant when he was asked how he did such beautiful work. He said, “I dream my painting, and then I paint my dream.” In other words, he saw the picture in his mind first and then he made a replica on canvas—in oil, of the original in his mind. In truth, there has never been an “original” “Van Gogh” sold!"
So use your imagination and create the life YOU want. Imagine it and watch it come to life!
I want to thank Michael and Linda for creating this mastermind and allowing me to participate so I can grow.
Thank you to all who participate by posting lessons and adding their brilliance.
Thank you to all who download Success In 10 Steps and laoow me to help them discover their own brilliance.

Specialized Knowledge -- What you need to know
CHAPTER 5
SPECIALIZED KNOWLEDGE, PERSONAL EXPERIENCES OR OBSERVATIONS
The Fourth Step toward Riches
Hill tells us "Any man is educated who knows where to get knowledge when he needs it, and how to organize that knowledge into definite plans of action. Through the assistance of his “Master Mind” group, Henry Ford had at his command all the specialized knowledge he needed to enable him to become one of the wealthiest men in America. It was not essential that he have this knowledge in his own mind."
This is definite proof that you don't "NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING" about your business. All the information we need is at the tips of our fingers. We just need to go on the internet and "google it". If you got to YouTube you can find "how to" videos on anything. We live in an information rich world so why clutter your mind with information you are not likely to need. The hardest part is filtering out the inaccuracies and organizing the information so it can be used efficiently. Learn to see the big picture quickly. It can be done, even if you are a green.
All you really need to know is where to find the right information. Is it on your company web site, on one of the MFF web sites, or somewhere else? When you know this then just point to the asked for information. Whatever you do, don't become a specialist and spend all your time showing people "how to".
I want to thank Michael and Linda for creating MFF and the Mental Cleanse.
I also want to thank all who participate in this mastermind group. Special thakns to those who post lessons and speak up.
I also want to thank all who have downloaded Success In 10 Steps from my website and for giving me a chance to "Make A Difference" in their lives.
And thank you to infinite intelligence for inspiring me and guiding me.

Is It Brainwashing Or Is It Improving Your Life?
CHAPTER 4
AUTO-SUGGESTION
THE MEDIUM FOR INFLUENCING THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
The Third Step toward Riches
Hill tells us that : "AUTOSUGGESTION is the agency of control through which an individual may
voluntarily feed his subconscious mind on thoughts of a creative nature, or, by neglect, permit thoughts of a destructive nature to find their way into this rich garden of the mind."
Autosuggestion is what Michael calls self talk. We do it constantly whether we know it or not. Our default mode is negative autosuggestion. That is why we need to consciously say our self talk constantly. At first we need to make an effort to say it out loud to drown out the negative talk from our subconscious mind. Once we have said our positive self talk several thousands of times (50,000 ?), it becomes automatic and we say it from our subconscious mind. But even then we have to reinforce it by consciously saying it a few hundred time each day or it will be overtaken by the
negative weeds we are subjected to in our daily lives.
Its been a mystery to me why some people, who appear to be strong believers in the MFF system, suddenly leave. I have been pondering this for a while. I got a hunch the other day about this.
I believe that what happens is that, even though they "talk the talk" they don't truly "walk the walk". What I mean by that is that consciously they believe that they believe in the system. BUT, deep down in the core of their subconscious mind is a seed of doubt. Its not big, the size of a mustard seed. But just like faith, this seed can grow if it is sprinkled with negativity. Once that doubt sprouts and starts growing it feeds unto itself and if not uprooted with, it will take over our thoughts.
What causes that seed to sprout? It could be a number of things. Someone tells you something negative about MFF or Michael or your company and voila! the little seed says "there you go, its not perfect after all." And then you start looking a little closer and you find more flaws, and it builds until its impossible to resist. So STOP IT!!!
Here is the truth! Nobody, nothing, no company, no system is ever perfect. If you are looking for perfection, you are in the wrong world. So, yes there will be flaws, look at the big picture and what do you see? Is it working for other people? If it is, you had better look deep inside yourself and find that mustard seed of doubt and cover it so deep with positivity that it will NEVER see the light of day.
A friend of mine told me he left MFF because he felt like he had been brainwashed. Well duh! Of course you have. Life brainwashed this person with Negativity and MFF brainwashed them with Positive thoughts.
Brainwashing isn't always bad. If it improves your life, isn't that a good thing. Thank you Michael and MFF for brainwashing me into a loving person with a positive life!
I want to thank Michael and Linda for creating MFF and the Mental Cleanse.
Thank you to all the leaders who participate by posting lessons and speaking up on the calls.
Thank you to all who have downloaded Success In 10 Steps from my web site and for allowing me to have a chance to improve your life. I am grateful for that.
Last but not least, I want to thank infinite intelligence for dictating this lesson to me.

AUTO-SUGGESTION
THE MEDIUM FOR INFLUENCING THE SUBCONSCIOUS MIND
The Third Step toward Riches
Hill tells us that : "AUTOSUGGESTION is the agency of control through which an individual may
voluntarily feed his subconscious mind on thoughts of a creative nature, or, by neglect, permit thoughts of a destructive nature to find their way into this rich garden of the mind."
Autosuggestion is what Michael calls self talk. We do it constantly whether we know it or not. Our default mode is negative autosuggestion. That is why we need to consciously say our self talk constantly. At first we need to make an effort to say it out loud to drown out the negative talk from our subconscious mind. Once we have said our positive self talk several thousands of times (50,000 ?), it becomes automatic and we say it from our subconscious mind. But even then we have to reinforce it by consciously saying it a few hundred time each day or it will be overtaken by the
negative weeds we are subjected to in our daily lives.
Its been a mystery to me why some people, who appear to be strong believers in the MFF system, suddenly leave. I have been pondering this for a while. I got a hunch the other day about this.
I believe that what happens is that, even though they "talk the talk" they don't truly "walk the walk". What I mean by that is that consciously they believe that they believe in the system. BUT, deep down in the core of their subconscious mind is a seed of doubt. Its not big, the size of a mustard seed. But just like faith, this seed can grow if it is sprinkled with negativity. Once that doubt sprouts and starts growing it feeds unto itself and if not uprooted with, it will take over our thoughts.
What causes that seed to sprout? It could be a number of things. Someone tells you something negative about MFF or Michael or your company and voila! the little seed says "there you go, its not perfect after all." And then you start looking a little closer and you find more flaws, and it builds until its impossible to resist. So STOP IT!!!
Here is the truth! Nobody, nothing, no company, no system is ever perfect. If you are looking for perfection, you are in the wrong world. So, yes there will be flaws, look at the big picture and what do you see? Is it working for other people? If it is, you had better look deep inside yourself and find that mustard seed of doubt and cover it so deep with positivity that it will NEVER see the light of day.

What Are You Trigger Moments by Brendon Burchard
I’ve spent my entire career helping high performers set up better strategies and habits to keep them energized, engaged and achieving their best. And the biggest secret I’ve learned in almost 20 years in this field is what I call “trigger moments.”
In essence, trigger moments are cues that remind you to activate your intentions or habits.
It’s one thing to have the intention to be more kind, patient and loving with people; it’s quite another to set a reminder on your phone that triggers you into being that kind of person. It’s one thing to want to eat wealthier, but another to setup a mental trigger that says, “Every time I drop off my kids at school, I immediately go to the gym or drive to the grocery store and buy fresh produce.” A trigger is a “when this thing happens, then I do or think that.”
For example, if you want to become more present and calm throughout the day, set up three phone alarms to go off throughout the the day with a label that says, “Close your eyes, take ten deep breaths in, and remind yourself to be calm.” These reminders will trigger you to enact the new behavior.
One of my favorite triggers to set up are “doorframe triggers.” Here’s how it works: When you walk into a room you have a psychological trigger go off in your mind that you’ve associated with that doorframe. So, for example, when you walk into the office in the morning, have three words go through your mind about how you want to interact with other people. Set up this same kind of trigger for when you walk into meetings, conference rooms, and even when you walk into your house.
Whatever you want to achieve in your life - better health, more energy, more clarity - set a trigger.
If you set up more triggers reminding yourself to stick to your habits and intentions, everything in your life will change. You will feel more energized, engaged and on track and you will experience what we call The Charged Life.
