(Building Success Habits) Business Owner's Peace of Mind - Londina Cruz & Donna Kunde

Londina Cruz & Donna Kunde - “Building Success Habits - Self Image Mastery”

PROFIT RADIO..."Grow With Us"

Introduction
In the book, “As a Man Thinketh,” James Allen sums up the ideas in this chapter saying, “Tranquility or calmness of mind is the result of long and patient efforts in self control. A person becomes calm to the extent that they know and understand themselves as a thought evolved being. The more tranquil a person becomes, the greater is their success.”

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.  In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are. What you can rise from. How you can still come out of it.” -- Maya Angelou

Objectives - The WHY 
Growing a business can be stressful, chaotic and challenging at times. The degree to which this affects us can be determined by our response to these challenges. We always have a choice in how we respond when the yogurt of life hits the fan. 

Key Issues - Owner Perspective:

1. Making a mountain out of a molehill is a bad habit that can be cured
2. Reboot your success mechanism after every failure
3. Doing nothing is a great response to an unreal problem

What You Need to Know - The WHAT

1. Peace of mind comes when we reduce or eliminate our own response to disturbing outside stimuli. 
2. Allowing the outside world to have that much control is handing over our power. Nobody can make us glad, mad or sad unless we let them. 
3. The environment or stimuli does not change. We still recognize the difficulty intellectually but choose not to respond to it emotionally. 
4. Our own feelings do not depend on outside influences but on our attitude, reaction and response. 
5. Over-response is a bad habit that can be cured. You can choose to answer the phone or you can choose to ignore it (example pg 208). 
6. Past conditioning can be harmful if not examined to determine if it is serving us. 

What You Need to Do​​ - The HOW

1. Relax! Physical relaxation is a powerful tool to gain peace of mind. It has been proven that you can’t feel angry, fearful, anxious, insecure or unsafe as long as your muscles remain perfectly relaxed. 
2. Create a quiet place in your mind to go to when life gets chaotic. Take a short mental vacation by counting to 10 or allow yourself to go to a happy place. 
3. Stop fighting the “straw man.” MSU is not healthy. The nervous system can’t tell the difference between what is real and what is imagined. 
4. Doing nothing is a proper response to an unreal problem.
5. Create your own First Aid Thought Kit:
   1. Let the telephone ring
   2. Delay your response to conditioned reflexes.
   3. Learn how to relax so you can go there when you need to during the day
   4. Use the ‘quiet room in your mind’ technique
   5. Stop scaring yourself with your own mental pictures
