Write You - Motivation, Momentum, and Fear: Uphill or Downhill?
Meditation can be defined as the science of paying attention to an object that will help us further unfold the finer aspects of our own self. The art of meditating was brought into our western world in the sixties by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi when he taught The Beatles to meditate trancendentaly. The essential skill of this meditating technique is learning to concentrate, condense and compress your awareness to be totally focused on the very sub
It may seem counterintuitive, but as you begin to go faster, you turn into the speed. You turn to cross over the “speed point” to go DOWN the hill in order to maintain control. This entire process involves going down, picking up speed, then shifting to
Here in England we are on the verge of the new football season and there is a large amount of transfer speculation and the like occurring. With football, we often find that the players who are doing well are confident. When they are having a great spell of the season, scored a lot of goals or something like that, their competence escalates as they feel more confidence. When their confidence is knocked, they might go through a bad spell and often
I grew up in southeast Texas and didn’t even see a mountain until I was in college. All I knew of skiing was what I saw every few years when the winter Olympics were televised. Oh, and let’s not forget that poor fellow featured in the ABC sports promo whose seemingly fatal fall down the mountain was repeated over and over to the words : “the agony of defeat. (OK – so I’m showing my age now!)
What’s the point of snow skiing, anyway? Not being a skier myself – I had to do some investigating to determine that the point is -
FUN!
More specifically – the point is to get down the mountain and have fun while not injuring yourself.
The other day, I asked my husband (who is an avid skier and instructor) to tell me a bit about skiing. As he explained some of the more technical aspects of it, a profound truth emerged.
So, skier or not – go with me on this brief journey – and see how these principles apply in your own life.
You have your skis strapped on, you’ve successfully negotiated the lift, and have reached the mountaintop. You begin your descent. As you start down the slope your speed increases. You have a choice now –
What are you going to do as you gain speed?
If you are a beginner, the speed most likely creates fear and you turn to head uphill to slow down and perhaps stop. If you come to a stop you’ve lost all your momentum. Now you have to pick up your skis, turn them around, and start all over again to get moving in hopes of getting down the mountain - while having fun.
If you are an experienced skier, the speed creates exhilaration and is an indication that it’s time to shift your weight to “turn into” and “cross over” the speed - making good progress going downhill.

If you market online, whether it be your own information products or services or someone else’s products (as an affiliate marketer), you need people both to see and buy your offers.But most people won’t buy your product or service until they trust you. Trust comes only after you have built credibility with people. One way credibility comes is by establishing yourself in your market as an expert. You can become an expert in several ways

The spiritual growth and guidance books will take you a journey of discovery that may challenge your current view on life. They are written from the viewpoint of an other-worldly race of Angelic Beings who are concerned about the direction we are taking on our Earth. From our limited point of view these spiritual growth and guidance teachers are extraterrestrial, but from that perspective are we not all such Beings? After-all, our true essence i

Simplicity. My sister and I have been reflecting on simplicity lately. We both seem to have gotten contemplative on where our lives are leading – and if we really want to pursue that direction!For me – I am 32 years old. I feel like an “ old soul” sometimes. I’ve been through a lot in my life. I am so blessed and thankful to be where I am today, with a loving husband and beautiful, precious children. I am able to pursue my dreams and

Despite your best efforts, there are going to be customers that you can not collect from. As bad as it is to not get your money, it is just as bad that they waste your time. You can’t afford the time and effort to keep sending statements and letters plus calling and calling them! Let your collector do the job for you.Here are four ways to spot the customers who qualify for immediate collections placement.You catch them lying to
It may seem counterintuitive, but as you begin to go faster, you turn into the speed. You turn to cross over the “speed point” to go DOWN the hill in order to maintain control. This entire process involves going down, picking up speed, then shifting to cross over; go down, pick up speed, and shift to cross over. You’ll soon find yourself at the bottom of the mountain (in one piece and looking very cool) ready to take on the next slope!
By the time the experienced skier has swooshed down the mountain basking in the afterglow of all that speed and exhilaration, the beginner may still be ? of the way up, experiencing fear, turning uphill to slow down, and making extremely slow (if any) progress towards the goal of getting down the mountain and having fun. (And they are definitely NOT looking cool!)
So, what I learned from my dear, ski-loving husband is that you’ll never become a successful skier until you learn to go through the “fear zone”.
So, ask yourself this question about your life – your business –your goals:
Am I an “uphiller” or a “downhiller”?
When you begin to pick up speed and momentum, and you get to that point of decision, do you experience fear? Will you turn into your fear to cross over, gain ground, and make progress towards your goal? Or will you turn away from the speed, turn uphill - slowing or even stopping your progress?
Which is it for you - Uphill or downhill?
