EMPOWERMENT TRIAD:

· PASSION

· PLEASURE

· REPETITION

This brings us to the third leg of the "Empowerment Triad," "Repetition." You can probably recall many examples, especially in school, in addition to the multiplication tables, where repetition helped you learn something that was important.

It is a well known fact that one comes, finally, to believe whatever one repeats to one's self, whether the statement be true or false.

-Napoleon Hill

Unfortunately, repetition alone will rarely enable you to replace old attitudes...unless you use repetition in conjunction with passion. Using repetition alone, it would be unlikely that the emotions would be touched and the true meaning of the information would be absorbed. Long term memory can more readily be activated when emotion is linked to the new knowledge. You can more readily remember information or an experience when the information or experience was initially introduced accompanied by deep emotion.

The repetition...which will be easier because of the passion and the pleasure...will work to create the desired change in mind-set, replacing the negative "I can't" messages with the positive "I can" messages.

EMPOWERMENT TRIAD:

· PASSION

· PLEASURE

· REPETITION

Each leg of the "Empowerment Triad" feeds the other in a never-ending power-building, upwardly spiraling process that will give you confidence, and the ability to believe in yourself. This is the power you will need to build a Strong Powerful Foundation; a foundation from which you can build your success and achieve your inner-most desires; a foundation upon which you can put your "castles in the sky."

If you have built castles in the sky, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put foundations under them.

-Henry David Thoreau

Achieving Success By Expecting Success by Zig Zigler

When you plan and prepare carefully, you can legitimately expect to have success in your efforts. When you recognize and develop the winning qualities that you were born with, the winner you were born to be emerges. When you plan and prepare to make a sale, for example, you can legitimately expect to make a sale. Although not all your expectations are going to come to pass, you give yourself an infinitely better chance of succeeding by taking the proper steps.

Regardless of your goal--losing weight, making more sales, furthering your
education, earning a promotion, saving money for a new home or an exotic vacation--you can expect to achieve your goal if you plan and prepare for it.

Also understand that the path from where you are to where you want to be is not always smooth and straight. The reason for the twists and bumps is simple, and it has nothing to do with you. It has more to do with the fact that not everyone is as interested in your success as you are. Some people may accidentally hinder your efforts; others who are in competition with you and have little or no integrity may try to sabotage your efforts.

Keep in mind, though, that when you hit those roadblocks your character,
commitment, and attitude are the determining factors in your success... Carefully review your plan of action, seek wise counsel, and be particularly careful to feed your mind good information. An optimistic, positive mind is far more likely to come up with creative solutions than a mind that dwells on setbacks and difficulties.

Bottom line: expect success and you can achieve it!

EMPOWERMENT TRIAD:

• PASSION

• PLEASURE

• REPETITION
  

"Pleasure", the second leg of the "Empowerment Triad," is the fuel that feeds the engine of passion. If the process was not pleasurable, the chances of obtaining the desired results would be significantly diminished.

Though sages may pour out their Wisdom's treasure,

There is no stronger moralist than Pleasure.

-Lord Byron

This fuel that feeds the passion is a powerful assortment of positive messages contained in rhyming poems; fed by passionate self-talk.

You may ask, "Why rhyming poems?"

It was a motivational, rhyming, poem from an anonymous author that I read years ago which actually gave birth to the idea for this process. The poem is called "It's All In The State Of Mind." The message was very powerful and the poem was fun to read and easy to remember so the rhymes stayed with me (i.e. the positive, uplifting, success oriented, self-affirming messages within these rhymes stayed with me.) I found myself repeating them aloud with increasing passion. They got into my soul and began to change the way I thought about things, the way I felt about myself and the way I viewed the world. I understood its message immediately. However, the more I read it aloud and with passion, the more it stirred an emotional cord deep within me. I knew from the very first time that I read this poem, that there was something wrong with how I viewed life and that I had the power to change that view.

Genuine poetry can communicate before it is understood.

-T.S. Elliot

Poetry...is the revelation of a feeling that the poet believes to be interior and personal--which the reader recognizes as his own.

-Salvatore Quasimodo

You have the power to change your view of life, by changing your attitudes.

He is most powerful who has power over himself.

-Philip Massinger

For most people, the reading of rhyming poetry is pleasurable, especially when it is read with passion. It is easy to be passionate about something that is pleasurable. The same is true in reverse; when you do something with passion, the experience is more pleasurable and makes a deeper, lasting impression. Reading these poems aloud with passion will have a dramatic effect on your attitudes.

Poetry should surprise by a fine excess, and not by singularity; it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts, and appear almost a remembrance.

-John Keats

Rhyming Poetry has a way of transmitting a message better than most other ways of expression. It seems to stay with you longer and penetrates deeper. It is said that "poetry is for the soul." As was indicated earlier, that's how the idea for this program was born. A poem expressing a truth I had not realized before, worked its way inside of me and started a process of change. The way this poem's positive message made me feel brought me to the realization that I previously had the wrong mind-set to achieve success. No matter how hard I tried success was very illusive and seemed just out of my reach.

Poetry is the first style of literature we experience as children - Pattern books, then rhymes! (Dr. Suess is still wildly successful!) Maybe that is why poetry is comfortable and comforting to read.

The messages contained within the rhymes that follow in the process can counteract and replace the negative messages that you may have been programmed with, if the process is repeated regularly.

You will need to stay with the program for the changes to become permanent. The more these rhymes are repeated the better the probability of your achieving and maintaining your desired success. Think of current knowledge that you have and are able to apply at will. (The multiplication table would be an example of this.) Now think back to when you first learned it. It would be safe to say that you had to repeat it to yourself many times before it became knowledge. You would have to continuously review it to maintain it as knowledge.

Failing To Succeed by Zig Zigler

Failure Is A Step To Success

"You've got to learn to lose in order to win" sounds like strange advice, but the man who says it has earned over three hundred million dollars. Even in today's economy, that's a considerable sum of money. Here's the story.

In 1958, brothers Frank and Dan Carney started a pizza parlor across from their family's grocery store. Their goal was to pay for their college educations. Nineteen years later, Frank Carney sold the 3,100-outlet chain called "Pizza Hut" for three hundred million dollars.

Carney's advice to those starting out in business sounds strange, but he explains the concept this way: "I've been involved in about fifty different business ventures and about fifteen of them were successful. That means I have about a thirty percent success average."

The point Frank makes is this: You need to be "at bat" if you ever expect to get a hit, and it's even more important to step back up to the plate after you strike out.

Carney says Pizza Hut was successful because he learned from his mistakes. For example, when an Oklahoma City expansion effort failed, he realized the importance of location and decor. He learned from his mistake so that the future would be brighter. When sales declined in New York, he came up with the innovative idea of introducing thick crust pizza with substantial success. When regional pizza houses began to take part of the market share, Frank responded by introducing "Chicago-style pizza," and again success came his way. Factually, Carney failed many times, but in each case he made those failures work for him.

Failure is an experience common to all of us. Question: Will you let those failures work for you or against you? If you do as Frank Carney did, you will use your failures as learning experiences and I really will SEE YOU AT THE TOP!

(If this is your first time on this site, please begin with "Are You Prepared For Success [Introduction.])

"Passion", the first leg of the "Empowerment Triad," is an integral part of the whole process. It is the engine that drives the positive messages into your subconscious. Do not underestimate the power of passion in changing your attitudes. Without passion in the process, the emotions would not be touched and the desired results would be far more difficult to attain.

Passion is in all great searches and is necessary to all creative endeavors.

-W. Eugene Smith

We may affirm absolutely that nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.

-Hegel, 1832

Passion, though a bad regulator, is a powerful spring.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Passion is defined as:

1. A powerful, deep, overwhelming emotion
2. Boundless enthusiasm
3. Zeal
4. Ardor

Every great and commanding movement in the annals of the world is the triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it.

-Ralph Waldo Emerson

Passion is the force behind the creation and the reinforcement of a positive mind-set (positive attitudes ruling your life). As the process progresses - the use of passion in driving the positive messages into your very being...will speed up the process dramatically, and could even be the difference between success and failure.

Without passion man is a mere latent force and possibility, like the flint which awaits the shock of the iron before it can give forth its spark.

-Henri-frédéric Amiel

Men are failures, not because they are stupid, but because they are not sufficiently impassioned.

-Struthers Burt

Passion will ignite the emotions, and awaken a very powerful force that lies within you.

Man is only truly great when he acts from the passions.

-Benjamin Disraeli

Be careful, passion can also have its negative, dark side. Remember, passion is a powerful emotion. There are negative passions such as envy, jealousy, rage, wrath, revenge, and many more. All the messages that you get and create through this process need to be positive, self-affirming and empowering.

Living well is the best revenge.

-George Herbert

The passion that you will summon up should be a combination of your own burning desire for success, the knowledge that a change in attitude will bring you so much closer to it, and the pleasure derived from reading rhyming poetry. Following is the "Pleasure" leg of the "Empowerment Triad."

We may affirm absolutely that nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.

Handling Failure by Zig Zigler

By Zig Ziglar

There are many great articles about attitude and success. I will be posting some of them verbatim rather than trying to rewrite them into my own words. In some cases, reinventing the wheel is not really necessary.

Cal Ripken is known for breaking Ty Cobb's "unbreakable" record of playing in 2,130 consecutive professional baseball games, and for signing a five-year contract for more than $30 million in the 1990s. However, during one particular year of that contract, Cal got only about one hit for every four times at bat. Think about it. If you had failed three times out of four in your job, how would you feel about it? What would your self-image or picture of yourself be?

Question: What do you think Cal Ripken's picture of himself is when he steps up to the plate? Do you really think that he's thinking: "Boy, what a waste of time! Chances are only one out of four I'm going to get a hit! I don't know why I bother with this anyhow. Sure, they pay me a lot of money, but this is embarrassing and terribly discouraging to get only one hit for every four trips to the plate. There has to be another way to make a living! I'm just a loser.

I'm no good, and I don't know why I put myself through this torture so everybody else can see what I already know." Do you think that's his self-talk? If not, then what is his self-talk? I believe as he steps to the plate with considerable eagerness to face the pitcher, Cal is thinking to himself, "Okay, you got me the last time, but I've got your number this time. I've been thinking it through, watching you, and I happen to know I'm one of the best athletes in the world.

I've hit that ball under every circumstance known to man. I've gotten hits off tall pitchers and short pitchers, winning pitchers and losing pitchers. I've hit in close games and runaway games, and this time . . . I'm coming after you. This is my turn!"

Cal Ripken sees himself as a winner, and he is elated to have a chance to step back up to the plate. Message: Regardless of what happened to you the last time you stepped up to the plate, this time it's a brand new day, and at this very moment you are preparing to make it a winning one. That is motivation.

Are You Prepared For Success? (Installment #8)

(If this is your first time on this site, please begin with "Are You Prepared For Success [Introduction.])

As previously stated, self-talk, also works on negative messages, such as the examples that I previously described. Therefore, you must make a commitment not to repeat any negative messages, negative judgments, or negative attitudes that you have about yourself as you begin the program. After a very short time you will readily be able to identify the negative messages. After all, the negative attitudes and feelings that you have about yourself are not true and will be, shortly, eradicated from your conscious and, more importantly, from your subconscious mind.

This process uses passion with pleasure in a repetitive format to touch deep emotional chords. This combination forms, what I call the "Empowerment Triad." This is a critical combination that will work to change your attitudes from negative to positive, from those of a loser to those of a winner; it will change the way you feel about yourself; it will change the way you view your world; it will enable you to achieve the success you desire and deserve. You will be able to soar like a bird.

Wings...

Be like the bird

That, pausing in her flight

A while on boughs too slight,

Feels them give way

Beneath her and yet sings

Knowing that she hath wings.

-Victor Hugo

EMPOWERMENT TRIAD:

· PASSION

· PLEASURE

· REPETITION

Remember desired success can be more than financial. It can be personal growth (health, scholastic, etc.) You can have multiple desires and work on them simultaneously. Once you begin to satisfy a desire, and you know that you won't quit until that desire is realized, then you are experiencing success.

Life affords no higher pleasure than that of surmounting difficulties, passing from one step of success to another, forming new wishes and seeing them gratified.

-Samuel Johnson

The "Empowerment Triad" is the heart of the process. Positive messages contained in the rhyming poetry (I will discuss the reason for rhyming poetry a little later.) Rhyming poetry is the soul of the process. With the heart and soul feeding the mind, this is a sure way to success.
