Blogging Power

If you are not blogging (writing in your blog) then now is the time to start!

What is a blog?

The word comes from the combination of the words "web" and "log."

It looks like a Website but it is designed to write it like a diary of your thoughts or a log book of events.

Advantages:

Blogs are FREE! (Please understand if it's free then you really don't own it.)
The more popular Blogs sites are Blogger.com and WordPress.com

They are easy to create and maintain and they can work like a Website.

It is a great way to create a presence on the Internet. The search engines recognize a blog just like a Website. If you want someone to find you and if you want to promote yourself for FREE then I highly recommend you start working on your blogs. If you own a Website then link your blogs to your Website and they will attract more traffic to your Website.

Blog sites will teach you how to create your blog. You can find videos on youtube.com explaining in detail how to build your first blog and how to use it to market your and/or your services.

What you are looking now is a blog and you will find links to some of my others blogs posted to the right in my profile.

Start now. Don't let fear keep you from doing it. You can't really mess it up.

The only word of caution I would make.....be careful what you write in your blog after all the whole Internet world will have access to it but that is what you want, right?

Happy blogging,

Steve Hart

Social Media Networking

By now I would expect you have educated yourself well enough to know about Social Media Websites like, myspace, facebook, linkedin, and even youtube.

If you are not posting your profiles on the top ranking Social Media Websites then you are making a big mistake. When you do it is like getting booth space at the community expo except this is international.

The amount of traffic and exposure is enormous and it’s Free. Social Media Websites have become the number one method of networking and the selling of products and services. “What?” Yes more people are making money through these Websites than any other method of advertising on the Internet and it's Free!

Let me explain how it can worked for you. First you post a profile about who you are and what you do and you Website offering your products or services.

Next you build up your friends list by asking people to add you to their list of friends. In four months I now have over 600 friends on facebook. Most of them I know personally but some I have never met… at least not yet. Recently I just met two from my list and we are already doing business together.

Next you begin to network by commenting and visiting with your friends while creating new friends through the same media. It does not take long before you are making new friends who want to get to know you better.

Once they have become your friends you look for the opportunity to offer your help and you tell them what you do. You must wait until they give you permission to make your sales pitch. If you start selling too soon you will blow your chances. But once they find you and you gain their attention and their interest you will be surprised how quickly people will want to know what you do and how they can benefit from knowing more about you.

I have my own private mailing list of over a 1,000 people for my e-newsletter but it has taken me years to build up that list. Now my new friends on facebook are visiting my Website and signing up for my private e-newsletter. They are giving me permission to contact them directly and market my services because they know me as a friend through facebook and they trust me.

You need your own private mailing list. This list will become your gold mine. Start building up your list now.

I do not consider myself an expert in social media networking but I am learning and it is working. You can make it work for you too.

Use Wisdom - Ask for Help

Have you ever said, “Na, I don’t need anyone’s help” only later to discover it would have been a lot easier if you had asked for the help you needed?

I admit it….if it were not the help of other people I would not be where I am at today. Even as tall as I am….. I have stood on the shoulders of many for they have helped me and taught me what I know.

Your ego wants to say, “See what I did?” and take all the credit. Face it even if you are a very talented creative person you still need help.

Wisdom would teach us not to take the path most people taken and get lost. But you would be a fool NOT to take the narrow path to that leads to success. If you want to make your own path…go ahead, I will be waiting up ahead, if you make it.

What I am saying is…..what ever it is you want to be successful at….find the people who are successful and ask them to help. Learn from them.

I have sought out the help of many successful speakers. I bought their audio training, their videos, their books, attended their seminars and conventions, spoke to them one on one, even paid for their coaching when I could get it.

Some are willing to help more than others but don’t let that stop you. Ask and then listen and learn. They have gone before you and they know the path of success or they can direct you to the people who can help you.

If you want to save your heart ache, time and money then ask for help. Seek out those have the knowledge you need. Your success is often right in front of you sometime it takes the eyes of another successful person to see it.

Learn what Napoleon Hill called the “Mastermind” principle. What happens when two or more minds come together in harmony agreeing upon any one thing. It will open doors to ideas un-available to you if you are left on your own.

The following video will give you words of insight from Napoleon Hill's teachings on the "Mastermind" principle. Enjoy;




Now when someone sees your success and they come and ask for help....will you be ready to help them?

Is Your Conclusion Another Illusion?

As a magician it is my job to create the illusion of magic and make it entertaining.

That is what I have been doing for over 30 years and I love it.

BUT I am NOT happy when my ego deceives me into believing in another illusion.
I am not talking about a magic trick rather when I fall into the trap of believing another lie and making it a part of my belief system. Why do I let this happen?

Road Blocks

No matter how hard you try, do you feel something is holding you back from getting what you want?

It’s a road block that comes out of no where. You moving down the road to success then all of a sudden you are stopped dead in your tracks and everything appears to be falling a part.

If you experiencing a battle between your desires and your expectations know this, the universe is far more likely to give you what you expect.

Your desires are where your wishes are but your expectations are governed by your belief system. If you desire success but you’re expecting the worst, then your expectations will give you an un-desirable outcome.

“Go directly to jail. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.”

In the game of monopoly it’s just rolling the dice but in real life it is a matter of choice. You decide what you to believe in, especially when it is something from your childhood, be it a lie or truth, reality or illusion.

For example, when you were a child someone told you were good with numbers. You told yourself this was true and now you’re a CPA or you work for Wall Street.

Or someone told you were stupid, you believed them and never finished school then later you discovered your talents as a leader and you became a successful CEO of your own corporation. The choice is yours.

Your belief system is made up of what you have learned as a child, past experiences, and your intuitions.

If you find yourself struggling to create your success…consider examining your belief system and decide if you need to change any beliefs that are blocking you from creating your desired success.

Change your belief system, match it with your desires and you will find success.

The only way I know to change your belief system is to first raise you consciousness, raise your self-awareness discover the “Real You!” This is why I am a student and a teacher of the Enneagram.

I have been using a meditation process to help change my belief system. Email me, I would be happy to send it to you for free copy. Steve@magic2motivate.com

Now is the Time

Are you thinking, “If I wait things are going to get better? OK.
How long can you wait? How much suffering can you take?

Get real. Change is in constant motion and the only way to prepare for change is to take control of it. You must decide to take action.

Over the years you thought, "Things will get better," yet you've done the same thing this year as in recent years. Don’t fool yourself. Get off the couch. Stop wasting time. Stop depending on others. Follow your passions.

What ever it is you are to do…do it! The universe has been sending you messages and you are not listening.

I know it scary to think about what might happen. But I also know that when you let fear control you, you don’t get what you want.

It is common to fear change. But when you are the one making the changes then you benefit from the changes. You get to decide the out-come.

Now is the time to follow your dreams and desires. Take a step in the right direction and you will find the universe rushing in to help you get what you want.

You have the right to ask questions but the answers may not come until you take that step of faith. When you make a commitment to move in the right direction then divine insight and inspiration will come. I am a living example.

Do you want to know why NOW?

You have hidden within you gifts and talents and other people are looking for what you have to give. They need to experience your passion.

If this means anything to you then please make a commitment now.

Email me and tell me you are deciding to take action. This is the first step toward the most exciting moments in your life.

Secrets to Successful Marketing

You can have talent. Your performance can be outstanding but if you don't know how to market yourself then you will never be successful in today's markets.

It was during the 19th century in England when the use of calling cards were an absolute necessity otherwise you would not be received. It was an essential part of introductions, invitations, and visits.

Calling cards or letters of introduction were sent ahead to pave the way and help a stranger connect with others of like society. This ritual would let the recipient know that the stranger was well connected and highly regarded.

When a stranger would arrive to town, he would send his card, with directions, to those to who he would expect to call upon him. It was common for the stranger to meet with those within your own profession even though you did not know them. If you did not receive a card then it was automatically understood your acquaintance was not welcomed.

I am not suggesting you adopt the above as a way of doing business but I am suggesting you consider the dynamics of how and why this became a common way of doing business.

It’s been said, “It is not who you know but rather who knows you that counts…”

Today the use of modern technology such as cells phones and your presence on the Internet have replaced this way of doing business. Do you have a business strategy using these tools?

Do you have a marketing plan that will put your name in front of as many people as you can?

Are you using the Internet to market yourself? Do you know how?

When someone mentions your name, what do they say about you? What do you want them to say about you?

I am not big on writing out business plans (as soon as you create one it is out dated) but you must have a marketing plan to attract the type of customers you want.

It starts with knowing who you are and what it is that you have to give. Next it’s all about knowing your target markets and how to position yourself within those markets.
My guess is….. most of you are stuck within the last two sentences.

If you need help, contact me. I have several tools and techniques that will give you the answers to the questions above.

Are You Wining The Money Game?

Are you are having trouble with money?

The reason why, it's a game and the game is not designed for you to win.

Back in October of 2007 I had just finished reading Bob Schenfield's book titled, “Busting Loose from the Money Game.” I posted my comments about this book and I placed a link to his Website in upper right corner in this blog. Look for: "Custom Link"

If you have not yet visited the site and watched the video.....do so. For those who did go back, he has a new improved video.

Why Has It Taken So Long?

I am 54 years old and I am just now beginning to understand what money is and how to create it and use it to get what I want. I guess I missed that day in school. I bet you did too.

I am now reading Brent Kissel's book, "It's Not About The Money." This book reveals your hidden belief system about money and how your beliefs are working against you.

I warning you.....this book can be painful. But if you are serious about taking the responsibility for your finances and your personal growth then here is what you do.

Go to Brent's Website and answer a few questions about you and money and he will send an eye opening revelation explaining why you are struggling with money and what you can do to change that.

Planning For Retirement?

Today’s statistics show that four out of every ten people will retire earlier than they intended and NOT because they want to……..they will have no choice.

Will you be ready for retirement? Face it, retirement for you will not be the same as it was for your parent’s generation.

You will either lose your job due to health, downsizing, re-location, or loss of business.

When you think you have prepared for retirement, take another look, the rules have changed. All your expected savings will fall short of giving you what you want.

During the year 2006 the average American personal rate of savings has fell below zero.
This is the first time this has happened since the great depression. You are spending more money than you are saving. You are losing the money game.

What happened?

Change is speeding up. Economic shifts, trends, the American family lifestyle, the loss of job security, credit card debt, the real estate crunch, the disappearing middle class, increased stress, not to mention retirement benefits are disappearing and the cost of living continues to rise.

Sounds scary? What will you do? The answer…….embrace the change!!!

If you think this all sounds hopeless then please listen to what I have to say….

The only way to win the kind of retirement lifestyle you desire is to change the way you think. If you choose not to, then you will be deeply disappointed and your retirement will be your hell.

Changing the way you think begins when you allow change in your belief system, your focus, and your values.

For example, life is NOT about what you can get but rather what you have to give. Life is NOT about collecting things but rather finding purpose and meaning in life. Giving and living life with purpose is an art that you can learn and master.

If this is not already happening in your life then I challenge you to seek out your purpose, once you know with clarity your purpose then you will find everything you have been looking for and your senior years will be the most rewarding years yet.

If you need direction and you want help, I can point you in the right direction or offer my services as a personal life coach and help you get what you want.

You Are Being Observed!

Before you get all upset and worried about who it is that is observing you….let’s talk about your own awareness.

Does this sound like you…..?

You are either bored with life or caught up in an un-controllable frenzy, worried or frightened and angry. You focus upon thoughts that don’t give you what or you struggle to take control of your life trying to find wealth and happiness.

All of your frustrations, feelings of apathy, fear and doubt are a result of your thoughts. They are doing their best to get your attention. They are screaming out waiting to be healed.

Are you aware of your thoughts? Do you feel the frustration? Are you in control of your life? Or do you feel you are you a victim of the situation?

Are you aware that your thoughts control you? Are you aware of your compulsions and how they control your behavior?

If you are aware of these things then you are the observer.

What?

Yes, you are the being observed by you! I know this may sound crazy but it is important you understand what is happening. It is important that become aware that there are two of you, one that is acting out your behavior patterns (your ego) and another one that is observing your behavior and all the consequences (your higher self). The observer sees the big picture? He knows how to get what you really want?

It is like playing the role of an actor in your own movie. The day will come when you realize your movie is much more enjoyable when you listen to the director, your higher self. You have two roles to play, you are not only the actor but you are also the director and script writer.

As the observer you get to decide what goes into your movie, you get to call the shots.
But if you let your ego run the show then you may not get what you want.

A good actor will listen to the director, stay with the script and only improvise when it is called for. The director’s job is to keep the big picture in mind. He knows the desired purpose of your movie. He knows how to make your movie exactly the way you want it.

When you raise your awareness and allow your higher self to make your decisions then you will get what you want. It is through your higher self that you get your intuitive direction. It is your connection to the mastermind, the invisible force through which everything flows.

I have found a self-discovery tool called the Enneagram. The Enneagram will show you how to free yourself from your ego and give you the power to get what you want. If you are sick and tired of dealing with the same old behavior patterns then its time to raise your self awareness and be freed from your frustrations.

To learn more about the Enneagram, I can help you, email me at steve@magic2motivate.com

Get Radical About Who You Are!

It is time for you to get radical about who you are and what you have to offer.
Survival is not enough. Today, mediocrity is a road to a slow death.

I am going to give you some action steps which will help you increase your income.

Recent years has been a wake-up call for many. If you want to get ahead then you will have to make changes otherwise this year may be another slow slide down the spiral economic drain. I have heard reports that last year's business was down 40 percent. According to the news this year maybe be worse.

Can you continue to afford that?

What are you to do?

I know I have spoken about this before but now is the time to get serious about this.

Before you can make changes you will have to get clear clear about who you are and what you have to offer. In other words, WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE? Everyone has their own unique gifts, strengths, and talents.

It is important that you clearly define what your gifts, strengths, and talents are. What is it that you have to offer? If you can't tell me within 30 seconds then you don't know. So let's work on it.

How can you "brand" what you do to meet the people's needs? What can you do best that no one else can or wants to do? Most likely the answer are right in front of you but you don't see it.

The answer is tied to your unique gifts, talents, your personality and the way in which you best deliver your services.

Once you have been able to answer these questions then it is time to "cop" an attitude about who you are!

It is your job to let people know what you do best. Unless you tell them, who will?

Marketing your services starts within your head. In your thoughts. What do you say to yourself when you think about your you and your services? What images come to your mind? What comes to your mind when you see yourself at your best?

Let's start with your words, statements, or definitions. What will you say to people which will in return make it easy for them to tell others who you are? What do you want them to say about you?

For example, "Steve Hart is a personal Life Coach. He helps people get the answers they are looking for by using what he calls 'intuitive questions' which says we will know the answers once we ask the right questions."

Or "Steve Hart is an expert at setting people free from their self-defeating behavior by teaching the universal principles of the ancient personality profile system called the Enneagram."

I hope these examples will help you in identifying who you are. Write down your own decription. Then ask yourself does it motivate people to want to know more? Or is it confusing or unclear?

I know it is not easy. If you need help please contact me.

Once you have clarified your message then it's your job to get other people to brag about who you are, what you have done for them and what you have to offer to others!

More to come.....

Taking Control Over the Enemy

What do you do when you feel you are not in control?

Sometimes you have to stand up and fight back. But before you do that you have to know who you are fighting against. Be very careful when choosing your enemy.
I will explain later.

Taking control starts by educating yourself. Raise your self-awareness. Change your current behavior patterns. How?

Begin by talking to someone who can objectively give you advice, someone who can see your blind spots and give you positive encouragement.

Also search for books, audio, video, or Websites that will stimulate your thinking.

The secret is in seeing the big picture. You are so close to your problems you don’t see the answers. Maybe it is time to back up. Re-position your thinking. Get a bigger picture of what is really happening.

The answers to your questions are right in front of you, give yourself permission to let go and back up. See the truth behind your frustrations. Learn how to position yourself so you can avoid the traps of getting side track, distracted, or discouraged.

Once again I encourage you to take time out and set in complete silence. Let go of all the noise within your head and connect with your higher self. This time of meditation is critical if you want to be successful.

Write out a list of your questions. Enter those thoughts into your meditation. Don’t try and force the answers, just submit them. Sometimes the answers will not come until later that day or the next day. Exercise faith and the answers will come.

So who is the enemy?

Take a deep look inside. It’s your ego.

Your ego is a part of your defense system. It was programmed to protect you. It is designed for your survival. But once you become aware of the real you, your higher self then it is no longer needed.

Instead your ego will hold you back. Its interest is in serving you and only you. It has no interest in your creativity or your service toward other people. It’s self centered. It will promote fear, doubt, and frustration, anything to keep you from pursuing your purpose.

When you feel as though others are working against you, take a step back and understand it is your own ego projecting that illusion upon you. The truth is no one has control of you and your thoughts except you. Whoa!...read that again.

Take responsibility of your own thoughts and actions. When you take control and see yourself as you’re really are that is when you become a winner and your ego will loose its control on you.


Steve Hart

Take Control of Your Thoughts

Taking control of your thoughts is a pivotal point of your success. You say, “I can control my thoughts.” but the truth is you lack the power to do so. You say you want success, yet you have trouble following through.

The average person thinks about twelve thousand thoughts per day. A deeper thinker may have over fifty thousand thoughts daily. If this is true, “How can I control all of my thoughts?”

The truth is you can not. But you can control the thoughts that do damage and learn how to stay focused upon the thoughts that will get you what you want.

Not all thoughts are going to do damage. They fly in and fly out. But they can become distracting. This is why you must learn to control your external and internal stimuli. It is critical that you consciously learn to turn off anything that distracts you from enjoying peace of mind.

How? First be aware what is happening. Turn the TV off. Stop listening to the radio. Choose your TV time wisely. Listen to music that has a positive effect upon you. Avoid conversations on issues you have no control over. After you have disciplined the amount of outside distractions you will find your mind free to stay focused upon your true desires.

Next it is critical that you remember who are you?

You are a person with a mission! You have an assignment to fulfill, a sense of purpose. The only thing that will give you complete joy and happiness is fulfilling your mission. When you identify who you are, including your talents, gifts, and strengths, you will be empowered to keep your mind focused upon what you really want and avoid distractions.

Most people never take the time to discover who they really are. That is why they need you. That is why they want to hear your message. They are searching to discover wisdom and themselves instead they are totally distracted by the world around them.

Once you know who you are and what it is you have to give, you will discover your passions. When you know what motivates you then you can let your passions be the director of your thoughts. They will give you power and motivate you to stay focused.

Any thought that elicits an emotional response within your brain must be controlled. An emotional response is what gives your thoughts power. Your emotions will feed upon these thoughts and dominate your thinking. Therefore you must decide which thoughts you desire to dwell upon.

Your dominate thoughts will attract into your life what ever it is you are thinking about.

This is why it is so important you learn to control your thoughts.

Busting Loose From the Money Game

Are you inflicted by the money game?

According to a recent survey the leading cause of stress is money 49% Work 33% and relationships 18%.

How do you know if you are winning the money game?

This game is the most emotionally charged game you will every play.

It is the leading cause of stress, pressure, and dissatisfaction.

Do you know all the rules to the game?

I just finished reading a book by Bob Schenfield, titled, “Busting Loose from the Money Game.” I am reluctant to share it with you since his ideas is completely different compared to most people.

Me, I found I agreed with 90% of what he said and then really struggling with the other 10%.

To get a quick idea of what I am talking about, Bob has produced an on-line video for you watch. The video runs for about 45 minutes. Its content is worth the watch.

Bob is a self-made millionaire, a family man, an info-preneurer from Charlottesville, VA.

I have been a student of Bob’s teaching for five years since he first produced a training program he calls today “the Ultimate Lifestyle Academy” and then after that two books “The Invisible Path of Success” and “The 11th Element.”

In the upper right hand corner of this blog there is a link to Bob's Website "Bustin Loose" there he will explain his methods. Tour his Website. Be sure and watched the video.

Bob says there are no rules. He destroys all myths and he says you can’t win the game. What do you do? You create a new game!

He makes money a “non-issue” turning money into energy which is the fulfillment of your desires. You may think I am crazy but I highly recommend to take a look at this and free yourself from the money game.

The money game will keep you from fulfilling your mission. I know I got caught in the trap. I have gotten sidetracked. I am playing a new game now.

I now have a whole new strategy to fulfilling my purpose in life. I have discovered the money comes when I stay focused upon my secret agreement and my purpose in life.

I am now going through a process of reclaiming the power to create what I want.
You can too but first you must understand it is all an illusion and you can't win playing the money game.


Steve Hart

The Secret Agreement

When I first began presenting my seminars I did my best to avoid the discussion of spiritual matters and how this plays into your success.

Over the years I have tested the response from my seminar attendees and I have found that most of you are eager to hear what I have to say regarding spiritual matters.

I have no interest in promoting religion but I am committed to raising your spiritual consciousness to a higher level. One that will serve you well and help you get what you want.

I begin by asking: Are you a 'human being' seeking a spiritual experience? Or are you a 'spiritual being' experiencing a human experience?

If you think your answer is the latter then I invite you to take a look at my new Website: www.thesecretagreement.com

Motivating the Motivator

How do you keep yourself motivated?

When it is your job to help motivate other people it is obvious you must first
know how to motivate yourself.

What do you do when life does not always move in the direction you had planned? Even when you set goals, stay focused upon your desires and use the universal laws, you still live in a world with other people who get to make their own choices. Theirs may not always align themselves with yours.

Napoleon Hill says, "Every adversity, every failure, every heartache carries with it the seed of an equal or greater benefit."

This statement may not give you comfort in the midst of your crisis. But it does offer the motivation of looking for what great thing will come out of it.

It reminds me of the statement my coach use to make when I would get injured, riddled with pain, he would say, “It will feel better when it quits hurting.” Oh thanks coach for the words of encouragement.

At least Hill’s statement is based upon the universal laws knowing that some how you can turn your crisis into a greater benefit.

So when you are facing adversity how do you turn this around for your benefit?

Remember who you are!

The power to recover from any adversity is in your awareness of who you are. Knowing the “real you.” Knowing your strengths, gifts, and talents. Knowing your mission and sense of purpose. You have the power to shift everything to your favor by the use of your thoughts.

In other words, what will you dwell upon?

Will you dwell upon the pain? Feeling sorry for yourself? Allow thoughts of failure to control you? Or will you keep your thoughts and emotions focused upon turning this event into something positive?

When you admire others it is so easy to forget to look at the temporary defeats they had to experience. You forget that your chosen celebrities have all faced adversity to get where they are.

Hill later says, “No follower of this philosophy can reasonably expect to accumulate fortune without experiencing ‘temporary defeats'.....A Quitter Never Wins and a Winner Never Quits.”

The Law of Correspondence

You think the Law of Attraction as described in the movie “the Secret” is exciting ……...then wait till you hear this!

The law of attraction is one of many laws. The better you understand how these laws work the quicker you can put them to work for you. Your understanding of these laws will change your life and guarantee your success.

One of my chosen teachers for the last 20 years has been Brian Tracy. I have met Brian on several occasions as I have volunteered to work for him during his seminars. He has taught me so much including the practical applications of these universal laws.

Today, I want to introduce to you the Law of Correspondence. Read here as Brain gives you the best description I have ever read on this law.



The Law of Correspondence


Your outer world is a reflection of your inner world; it corresponds with your dominant patterns of thinking.

This is an extraordinary principle. It explains most happiness and unhappiness, most success and failure, most greatness and meaninglessness in life. After years of study in this area, I still stand in awe before this powerful law, like standing and looking out over the vastness of the Grand Canyon.

Just think! Your outer world reflects your inner world in every way. Nothing can happen to or for you in the long term until and unless it corresponds to something inside of you. If you want to change or improve anything in your life, you must begin by changing the inner aspects of your mind.

Sometimes this is called the "mental equivalent." Your greatest responsibility in life is to create within yourself the mental equivalent of what you want to experience on the outside. The fact is that you cannot achieve it on the outside until you have first created it on the inside.

It is as though your life is a 360-degree mirror. Wherever you look, there you are. Your relationships for example, always reflect back to you the kind of person you are on the inside. Your attitude, your health and your material conditions are a reflection of the way you think most of the time.

This is hard for most people to accept. Most people think that the problems in their lives are caused by other people and circumstances. They are shocked and angered to be told that they are the primary architects of everything that happens to them. They want others to change. They want the world to change. But they do not want to change themselves.

The Law of Correspondence is a foundation principle of virtually all religions and schools of thought. It is really great news. It is the key to personal freedom and happiness. It is the high road to great success and fulfillment.

There is only one thing in the world that you can control, and that is the way you think. However, when you take complete control over your thinking, you take control over all the other aspects of your life. By thinking and talking only about what you want, and by refusing to think or talk about what you don't want, you become the architect of your own destiny.
