ngs　worked　out。　No　other　person　has　enough　information　about　your　problems。　No　one　knows　your　skills　and　capabilities　better。　We　get　our　creative　thinking　going　each　morning　by　asking　ourselves　2　questions。　1。　What's　good　in　my　life？　2。　What　is　there　still　to　be　done？　Because　thought　always　perceive　action。　Talking　to　yourself　is　a　proven　way　to　get　motivated。　

36。　Schedule　your　ebacks。　
Progress　toward　your　goals　is　never　going　to　be　a　straight　line；　It's　always　going　to　be　a　wavy　line。　You'll　go　up　and　e　down　a　little。　Two　steps　forward　and　one　step　back。　Now　most　people　will　get　discouraged　when　they　take　the　two　steps　back；　they　think　they're　failing。　But　they　really　hasn't。　They　really　in　sync　with　the　natural　rhythm　of　progress。　Now　once　you　understand　this　rhythm；　you　can　look　ahead　on　your　calendar　to　refresh；　renew；　and　recover。　Schedule　your　eback　while　you're　still　on　top。　Schedule　a　block　of　time　to　get　away。　Even　to　get　away　from　what　you　love。　Because　ing　back　is　going　to　be　that　much　more　exciting　when　you've　been　renewed。　

37。　Live　you're　true　life。　*　
〃When　you　say　you　fear　death；　you're　really　saying　you've　not　lived　you're　true　life。〃　This　fear　cloaks　the　world　in　true　suffering。　How　do　you　know　what　you're　true　life　is？　How　do　you　know　how　to　live　it？　First；　find　out　what　makes　you　happy　and　start　doing　that。　i。e。　if　writing　makes　you　happy；　start　writing。　Don't　just　wait　until　something　is　offered　to　you。　Be　proactive　about　your　happiness。　There　is　no　goal　better　than　this　one。　To　know　as　you　lay　in　you're　death　bed　that　you've　lived　you're　true　life。　You　did　what　it　was　that　made　you　happy。　

38。　Get　up　on　the　right　side　of　the　bed。　
Get　up　on　the　right　side　of　you're　brain。　Dreams；　and　energy；　and　creative　insight　es　from　the　right　side　of　the　brain。　Linear；　logical；　short　term；　and　short　sighted　thinking　es　from　the　left　side　of　the　brain。　The　best　explanation　of　how　whole　brain　thinking　surpasses　just　one　sided　thinking　is　in　a　book　called；　〃Frankenstein's　castle。〃　…　Wilson。　We　have　more　control　in　drawing　vital　energy　and　creative　ideas　from　right　brain　then　we　ever　realized。　And　what　stimulates　the　right　brain　the　most　is　a　high　sense　of　purpose。　If　you　had　to　carry　a　bag　of　sand　around　town；　you're　left　brain　would　say　it　was　boring。　But　if　you　had　to　carry　your　daughter　that　weighed　the　same　as　the　bag　of　sand；　then　you　would　carry　her　with　more　energy。　That　energy　es　from　the　right　side　of　the　brain。　Purpose　gives　you　that　energy。　Self　motivation　increases　when　the　left　brain　gets　good　at　telling　the　right　brain　what　to　do。　

39。　Use　your　magic　machine。　*　
Most　people　wait　for　an　external　crisis　to　finally　kick　in　their　whole　brain　thinking。　But　the　leads　to　a　life　of　reaction　other　than　creation。　The　3　best　ways　to　activate　whole　brain　thinking　are　through　1。　goal　setting。　2。　Joyful　work。　3。　Revitalizing　play。　So　rather　wait　for　some　external　crisis　to　appear；　you　can　create　an　internal　challenge　of　your　own。　Goals　and　games。　Goals　and　games　motivate　you　more　than　anything　else　in　the　world。　

40。　Get　your　stars　out。　
〃Make　sure　you　get　your　stars　out。〃　Let　the　universe　that　is　in　you　shine　freely。　Don't　try　too　hard　to　force　things；　just　get　your　stars　out　and　let　them　shine。　

41。　Be　a　finisher。　
Do　you　want　to　know　where　fatigue　really　es　from？　It　doesn't　e　from　working　too　hard。　All　the　research　shows　that　fatigue　es　from　not　finishing　your　work。　〃Nothing　is　more　fatiguing　than　the　hanging　on　of　an　unpleted　task。〃　…　William　James。　The　best　way　to　change　your　belief　system　is　to　change　the　truth　about　you。　To　believe　that　you　are　a　good　finisher；　you　have　to　build　a　personal　record　of　finishing　tasks。　Each　day　make　a　list　of　small　tasks　and　finish　them。　We　motivate　ourselves　by　finishing　things。　

42。　Invent　games。　
Whatever　it　is　that　you　have　to　do；　whether　it's　a　major　project　at　work　or　a　huge　cleaning　job　a　home；　turning　it　into　a　game　will　always　give　you　higher　energy　and　self　motivation。　

43。　Interact。　****　
There's　a　huge　difference　between　active　relaxation　and　passive　relaxation。　Active　relaxation　refreshes　and　restores　the　mind。　It　keeps　it　flexible　and　toned　for　thinking。　Great　thinkers　have　known　this　secret　for　a　long　time。　Some　people　use　to　paint　to　relax；　others　play　the　violin。　They　can　relax　one　side　of　the　brain　while　stimulating　the　other。　When　they　return　to　work；　their　mind　is　sharper　than　ever。　Most　of　use　simply　deaden　the　mind　when　we　want　to　relax。　We　rent　mindless　videos；　read　magazines；　we　drink；　we　smoke；　we　eat　until　we're　foggy　and　blotted。　The　problem　with　this　form　of　relaxation　is　that　we　dulls　our　creativity　and　it　makes　it　hard　to　e　back　into　consciousness。　But　when　we　find　ways　to　link　thinking　into　our　relaxation；　we　bee　players　in　the　game　of　life　and　not　just　spectators。　

44。　Live　a　whole　life　today。　
〃Make　each　day　you're　masterpiece。〃　While　other　people　focus　on　some　special　day　in　the　future；　you　should　always　focus　on　today。　Practice　sessions　are　every　bit　as　important　than　any　championship　game。　There　is　no　reason　to　make　TODAY　the　proudest　day　of　your　life。　Today　is　the　macrocosm　of　you're　entire　life。　It's　your　whole　life　in　miniature。　You　got　eternity　in　the　palm　of　your　hand。　Life　is　now。　Life　is　not　later　on。　And　the　more　we　hypnotize　ourselves　into　thinking　that　we　have　all　the　time　in　the　world　to　do　what　we　want　to　do；　the　more　we　sleep　walk　and　the　more　we　miss　life。　

45。　Wele　your　problems。　
Ever　solution　has　a　problem。　You　can't　have　one　without　the　other。　So　why　do　we　say　we　hate　problems。　Why　do　we　claim　we　want　a　hassle　free　existence？　Deep　down；　where　our　wisdom　lives；　we　know　that　problems　are　not　to　be　feared。　Problems　are　simply　tough　games　for　the　athletes　of　the　mind。　And　true　athletes　always　want　to　get　a　game　going。　If　you　learn　to　love　the　opportunities　your　problems　present；　then　your　motivational　energizes　will　always　rise。　Remember；　every　solution　has　a　problem。　

46。　Drive　a　library。　
One　of　the　greatest　opportunities　you　improve　yourself　lies　in　your　drive　time　using　audio　tapes。　Use　audio　tapes　to　educate　and　motivate　yourself　while　you　drive。　If　we　leave　what　we　think　about　to　chance　or　to　an　R…rate　disk　jockey　then　we　lose　a　large　measure　of　control　of　our　own　mind。　Audio　cassette　learning　is　one　of　the　surest　way　to　learning　from　your　subconscious　mind。　It's　one　of　best　ways　to　design　an　action　orientated　belief　system。　The　kind　you　need　to　inspire　on　going　self　motivation。　


47。　Rewind　your　thoughts。　
Perhaps　you　noted　some　idea　in　this　program　or　book　you've　read　that　you　want　to　hold　on　to。　Even　a　single　phrase；　if　you　place　it　prominently　in　your　home　or　your　office；　can　have　a　huge　impact　in　your　life。　So　write　things　down；　put　things　up。　Write　down　what　motivates　you　and　put　it　up　where　you　can　see　it。　

48。　Make　yourself　up。　
One　of　the　ways　to　get　starting　in　making　goals　and　action　plans　is　just　start　making　them　up　like　you　did　when　you　were　a　kid。　Think　of　creating　in　simpler　terms　than　that。　The　of　creating　is　something　that　all　human　beings　do　very　easily。　〃Always　think　of　what　you　have　to　do　as　EASY　and　it　will　be。〃　

49。　Get　small。　
Most　people　participating　in　the　free　enterprise　system　have　been　convinced　in　setting　large　and　specific　long　range　goals　for　themselves。　Career　goals；　yearly　goals；　and　monthly　performance　goals　are　always　on　the　mind　with　a　person　with　ambition。　But　maybe　people　over　look　all　together　the　power　of　small　goals。　Goals　set　during　the　day　that　give　energy　to　the　day　in　a　sense　of　achieving　a　lot　of　small　wins　along　the　way。　By　increasing　your　conscious　use　of　small　objectives；　you'll　see　the　larger　objectives　ing　to　reality　much　faster　than　you　thought　they　would。　

50。　Get　out　of　the　box。　
All　of　us　tend　to　look　at　our　challenges　from　inside　a　box。　We　take　what　we've　done　in　the　past　and　put　it　in　front　of　our　eyes　and　then　envision　what　we　call　〃the　future。〃　But　you　see；　that　restricts　our　future。　With　that　kind　of　restricted　view；　the　best　the　future　can　possibly　be　is　a　new　and　better　past。　Great　motivational　energy　occurs　when　we　get　out　of　that　box　and　realize　that　the　possibilities　for　creative　ideas　are　infinite。　To　create　the　best　possible　future　for　yourself；　don't　look　at　through　a　box　containing　your　own　past。　Create　the　future　from　nothing。　

51。　Advertise　to　yourself。　
Loser　visualize　the　penalties　of　failures　and　winners　visualize　the　rewards　for　success。　Without　advertising　our　goals　to　ourselves；　we　can　lose　sight　of　them　all　together。　Draw　4　circles　on　the　blank　piece　of　paper　in　the　beginning　of　the　day。　The　4　circles　represent　goals　for　my　day；　my　month；　my　year；　and　my　life。　Inside　each　circle；　write　down　what　I　want。　It　can　be　a　dollar　figure；　it　can　be　anything。　And　the　goals　can　change　from　day　to　day。　By　writing　the　goals　down；　I'm　like　an　airline　pilot　with　a　radar。　I'm　orient　my　mind　to　what　I'm　up　to　in　life。　I'm　reminding　myself　of　what　I　really　want。　If　I　don't　make　a　map；　basically　I'm　saying　〃just　take　me　anywhere。〃　

52。　Don't　stop　thinking。　
Motivation　es　from　thought。　Everything　we　do　begins　with　a　thought。　And　when　we　quit　thinking；　we　lose　the　motivation　to　act。　We　eventually　slip　into　pessim
