			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was talking to someone recently who was overwhelmed with too many things on his plate and I told him something that I thought was worth repeating here&#8230;</p>
<div id="attachment_311" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 410px"><a href="http://www.marcdussault.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/dr-marc-dussault-juggling-and-time-management.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-311" title="dr-marc-dussault-juggling-and-time-management" src="http://www.marcdussault.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/dr-marc-dussault-juggling-and-time-management.jpg" alt="Juggling 10 Balls and dropping 6 is not the same as juggling 4 balls" width="400" height="387" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Juggling 10 Balls and dropping 6 is not the same as juggling 4 balls</p></div>
<p><strong>Juggling 10 balls and dropping 6 is not like juggling 4 balls.</strong></p>
<p>First of all it&#8217;s a lot harder and you don&#8217;t look very good dropping the 6 balls even though most people can&#8217;t even juggle 3 balls. That&#8217;s the point &#8211; PUT THE BALLS DOWN AND JUGGLE THE ONES you can handle THEN and ONLY THEN do you toss another ball in the air.</p>
<p>Successful people juggle a lot of balls and the less successful think it&#8217;s the way to go &#8211; doing MULTIPLE things at a time.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not. It&#8217;s a recipe for disaster and makes you look foolish.</p>
<p>Stop it! Re-gain your compose, reduce your stress and improve your results.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s it for today &#8211; short and sweet.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today&#8217;s post is courtesy of Sandy Boldiston.</p>
<p>It needs no introduction other than it &#8216;came to me automatically&#8217;&#8230; How freaky is that?!?!</p>
<p>Thanks Sandy!</p>
<p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9dKxQoEvIS8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9dKxQoEvIS8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object></p>
<p>So get to it! Create your vision and new destiny!</p>
<p>If you are technologically challenged, you can collect photos from magazines and create a &#8216;dream book&#8217; of images&#8230;</p>
<p>Whatever you do, BELIEVE this stuff works &#8211; because it does!</p>
<p>I am competing at my first World Masters Championships &#8211; a thought I manifested YEARS AGO. I can remember the day &#8211; that&#8217;ll be a post of its own. For now, share with me another &#8216;dream come true&#8217; for me.</p>
<p>Celebrate it with me, for me AND FOR YOU &#8211; pick a dream that is just as audacious as this one was for me&#8230;</p>
<p>Pick one that you&#8217;d be thrilled to have.</p>
<p>For me, competing at this top level is truly a dream come true. It&#8217;s a goal that has kept me focused, fit and healthy for the past several years. I feel at least 10 years younger, stronger and healthier than my birth certificate reflects.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m 45 and can wear the same pants I wore 20 years ago. Not many men my age can say that. As we age, it&#8217;s a struggle to keep the weight down and stay fit. Having a goal like this has been MORE than enough to keep me disciplined.</p>
<p>Of course the NEXT GOAL is to WIN games and at some point a division or plate&#8230;</p>
<p>First the dream, then the reality!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m off to play my first match&#8230; Wish me luck!</p>
<p>Onward and upward!</p>

<p>P.S.</p>
<p>We get what we focus on &#8211; the more you focus, the more your chances of getting &#8216;it&#8217;.</p>
<p>You need to do it from a place of authenticity, honesty and integrity. Don&#8217;t force it&#8230; As Deepak Chopra states:</p>
<blockquote><p><strong>&#8220;Release yourself from the expectation of the outcome so you can tap into a discontinuity gap in the universe to instantly synchronise with a non-local correlation that will trigger a quantum leap of creativity and innovation to help you manifest infinite knowledge and boundless possibilities enabling a conspiracy of improbabilities that create your ultimate destiny.&#8221;</strong></p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a really tough distinction to explain.</p>
<p>The statistics are shocking. Only 7% of the population knows the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> they are trying to achieve, leaving a whopping 93% partially or totally clueless.</p>
<p>Add to that the confusion between the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> and the <strong>REWARD</strong>.</p>
<p>Recently, I had a conversation with an Internet Marketing enthusiast who when I asked what his <strong>OUTCOME</strong> was, responded &#8220;I want to drive a BMW and fly Business Class&#8221;.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s the <strong>REWARD</strong> of the <strong>OUTCOME</strong>, NOT the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> he needs to aim for.</p>
<blockquote><p>The <strong>OUTCOME</strong> is what you want to achieve, the <strong>REWARD</strong> is what you end up with <em>ONCE</em> you have achieved it.</p></blockquote>
<p>That&#8217;s a big part of the problem people have &#8211; they are focused on the wrong target.</p>
<p>There is no question that focusing on the BMW is motivational, but the <strong>REWARD</strong> would be a 7 or 8 series instead of a 3 series IF focus actually shifted to the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> that leads to the <strong>REWARD</strong>.</p>
<p>For my squash competition, the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> is for me to play my best and the <strong>REWARD</strong> is to win games.</p>
<p>In business, I have the <strong>OUTCOME</strong> to create MORE THAN $20 MILLION in value for my clients and the <strong>REWARD</strong> will be the profits I take home AFTER my clients have been served and paid me.</p>
<p>Can you see how I wake up in the morning with a completely different mindset?</p>
<p>If your focus is on the <strong>REWARD</strong> &#8211; you&#8217;re trying to make as much money as you can and your brain gets confused rather than clear.</p>
<p>You could be confusing your suspects and prospects by offering &#8220;Personal training products for 400 pound elite athletes who need to lose weight.&#8221;</p>
<p>If you had clarity of <strong>OUTCOME</strong>, you&#8217;d have focus and you&#8217;d go full-on with an approach that could be directed toward</p>
<ul>
<li> <strong>Elite</strong> <strong>athletes</strong> who are looking for that ONE strategy, tip or technique that can improve their performance by 3, 4 or 5% because they know it would be enough to win more points, games, matches or competitions.</li>
</ul>
<p>OR</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>The</strong> <strong>general</strong> <strong>public</strong> who is overweight, but NOT obese, needing and WANTING to lose 20 to 30 pounds within the next 2-3 months without medical supervision and without resorting to short-term &#8216;crash diets&#8217; but rather creating long-term health habits that become permanent.</li>
</ul>
<p>I am sure you&#8217;ll agree that either one of these strategies can work to give you the <strong>REWARD</strong> &#8211; the issue is that the <strong>OUTCOMES</strong> are completely different even though the <strong>REWARD</strong> is essentially the same!</p>
<p>Yeah I know it&#8217;s a <strong>&#8220;conundrum and dilemma wrapped up in a paradox.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Onward and upward!</strong><br />

<p><a href="http://www.MarcDussault.com">Australia&#8217;s #1 Exponential Growth Strategist</a></p>
<p>P.S.</p>
<p>This is not semantics &#8211; this stuff is THAT important.</p>
<p>It might take a while, but when you do &#8216;get it&#8217;, it will <strong>Unleash The Exponential Potential</strong>™ that is within you, waiting to be set free.</p>
<p>If you don&#8217;t know your <strong>OUTCOME</strong>, how can you possibly expect your suspects and prospects to select you and do business with you?!?!</p>
<p>If you are focused on your <strong>REWARD</strong> &#8211; the client has no place in your mind &#8211; NONE.</p>
<p>That is one of the reasons you&#8217;re not succeeding as much or as quickly as you would like.</p>
