Procrastination - Positive or Negatives, makes a great difference

This word Procrastination, is commonly used and commonly defined as bad.

Procrastination is not all bad sometimes. It really depends on whether is a Positive or Negative Procrastination.

Negative Procrastination – Will have immediate side effects
(You drag your feet to do something which you know you ought to do. The result of not doing that something will give you much headaches).

Example:

1. Paying your bills.

2. Showing up at events that you ought show up –like meeting your boss.

3. Taking necessary breaks after many long and exhaustive days of working

4. Exercising for better health

5. Taking your required medications

6. Communicating with your spouse, children after a long silent break.

Positive Procrastination – Will not have immediate side effects
(You can still afford time to ponder, in fact it is only wise you do that).

Example:

1. You have an offer to join venture with someone, but you don’t feel the green light inside you. You need to do more research.

2. You have been asked to join a company, network or groups, but you feel uneasy, indecisive and unclear about it.

3. You wanted to start a project but don’t seem to have the flow to do anything yet.

4. You are asked to sign a contract, but you need to know more first.

5. You wish to leave your job, go overseas but don’t know much about the new territory you are stepping into. You need more info.

6. Writing or publishing a book or magazine.

When you are feeling this way, it is good to step aside and quiet your mind and inner thoughts to assess it more with clarity. Spending sometime to think through and do more research may be the answer. Sometimes it may even be the case of just putting it aside completely.

Ask yourself these questions, when in doubt:

1. Are you disconnected from the Higher Power? Who is your God?

2. Do you really know what you want?

3. Do you feel passionate about it? Or at least feel good about it?

4. Are you confuse, without clarity, do you need more information?

5. Do you feel fearful about it? Is fear standing in your way, and what can you do about it?

6. Do you focus on the negative more than the positive?

7. Are you afraid with other peoples’ opinions?

8. Does it add value to me or others, me and others?

When you need to set aside the time to think through certain things, it’s also good to:

1. Set a time line or deadline.

2. Set the priority. Weigh the importance of doing or not doing certain project.

3. Set interruption boundaries.

4. Know the difference between important and urgent.

Based on Stephen Covey’s “The 7 habits of highly effective people”…

Urgent-Example:

- The phone rings, and you have to pick it up even though you have someone with you at the moment.
You will probably complete the urgent conversation and let the person in front of you wait, because the
ringing phone is pressing on you, and we normally react to urgent matters.

Important –Example:

Something that has to do with results, it contributes to your mission, your values, your high priority goals.
If we don’t have a clear idea of what is important, of the results we desire in our lives, we are easily diverted into responding to the urgent.

5. Knowing how to choose
An Excerpt from “How do I choose” by Dr. Lorraine Cohen

“How well do you know yourself? Many people don’t know themselves at all. They might know things about themselves – their likes, dislikes, some behavior patterns, some strengths, talents, fears. They think they DO know themselves. In truth, they’re so busy attending to the day-to-day responsibilities that they miss getting to know who they are, intimately….”

“People who make decisions from the inside out bring their self-awareness, gut instincts and intuition into their experiences. They view situations by asking themselves,
“Who am I?” when trying to answer the question, “What do I do?” Shining the spotlight on your values, beliefs, purpose and vision will aid in creating a deeper understanding of who you are. Bringing yourself into the equation is like adding color to a black and white picture! Turning your attention inward leads to greater clarity and smarter choices.”

The next time Procrastination pops up in your face, ask whether it is a Positive or Negative Procrastination.

And learn how to choose.

Harness the Power that Defeats Defeat
By Guy Finley
You possess a potential power that is superior to any difficulty that life may ever present. This immense inner capability enables anyone who will claim it to instantly rise above his challenger. It makes no difference what form the challenge may assume or how huge it looms. This latent power of yours can render it harmless and ultimately make it disappear.

This friendly force that can turn your life into a series of victories is the power to question defeat. Now, before you start insisting that you already question your stresses and strains, allow me to show you the difference between right intention and right direction. A little story will help illustrate this higher idea.


A happy traveler noticed a tired-looking man seated off to the side of a small but pleasant country road. It appeared that even the cool shade of the tree seemed to weigh upon him. The traveler asked if he might sit for a while and refresh himself. It wasn’t long after they had shared some bread, an apple, and sparse, polite conversation that the obviously unhappy man spoke up. He begged his new companion’s forgiveness and went on to ask if the traveler could help him.


It seemed he had been wandering for weeks, going through all kinds of difficulties; but for all his intense effort, he could tell he wasn’t getting any closer to his destination. He wanted to return to the home of his childhood. The traveler understood his plight and asked where was this home. The man, showing his first smile, called out the name of the small town where he had been born. The traveler looked at him gently and then spoke. “I know how it feels to want to go home; but along with your right intention, you’ve got to have the right direction. You’ve been headed the wrong way, friend.”


The kind traveler then pointed him in the right direction and the wandering man soon made it back to the home of his youth. Let’s look at this story through the eyes of a new understanding. In that way we too can make it back to our authentic inner home, our True Self. First we must realize that our stressful, pain-filled experiences are not caused by people or events, but by our reactions to them.


And yet, if we will honestly examine the way we presently question our defeats, here’s what we see: we are still desperately seeking answers that serve only to correct the surface or exterior conditions. We are still blaming circumstances for crushing us. The direction of our questions proves that we are still thinking incorrectly toward our problems. This is supremely important to grasp if we wish to change our inner and outer world.


By their very nature our old questions tend to make and then keep us victims. They imply that someone or something outside of ourselves is punishing us. No human being is a victim of any punishment outside of his own undeveloped life-level from which his inner reactions are seen as outer attacks.

This is why we must learn to turn our questions into tools for developing self-wholeness instead of letting them lead us off in the wrong direction. As a matter of fact, there should be a new question forming in your mind just about now. If you will, let me help you formulate it, because this question is pointed in the right direction.

It goes something like this:
“Where in the world did I get all of those wrong questions that have kept me the victim and at odds with the world?”
“I’ll let you answer this right question for yourself. Based on what we’ve discovered so far, who stands to gain the most from keeping you fighting with shadows and grasping at straws?” “The false self!”


“That’s right. This false nature always divides in order to conquer. From this moment forward, we are going to learn to ask our own questions — questions that address and illuminate what it is within us that always feels as though it is being punished.”


These new questions are the power that defeats defeat. They alone insure total victory. Each time you ask the right question about an inner ache, you receive the new and right result of being released from the dark deceptions of the false self that wants you to fight with life. Here are ten new questions that lead to self-wholeness. Use them to see the difference between how you used to think and how you will question defeat from now on. You will win!

Questions for Self-Wholeness

1 Instead of always asking yourself why things always happen to you, learn to ask What is it inside of me
that attracts these painful situations?

2 Instead of always asking yourself why things had to go this way or that way, learn to ask Why is the way I
feel always determined by external conditions?

3 Instead of always asking yourself how to protect yourself in challenging situations, learn to ask What is it
in me that always needs to be defended?

4 Instead of always asking yourself how to clear up your mental fog, learn to ask Can confusion know
anything about clarity?

5 Instead of always asking yourself what to do about tomorrow (or the next minute, learn to ask Can there
ever be intelligence in anxiety or worry?

6 Instead of always asking yourself why does so-and-so act this or that way, learn to ask What’s inside of
me that wants to hurt itself over how anyone acts?

7 Instead of always crying out, “Why me?” learn to ask Who is this “me” that always feels this way?

8 Instead of always asking yourself if you’ve made the right choice, learn to ask Can fear ever make a safe
decision?

9 Instead of always asking yourself why doesn’t so-and-so see how wrong they are, learn to ask Is what
I’m feeling about that person right now good for me? Or them?

10 Instead of always asking yourself how to get others to approve you, learn to ask What do I really want,
the applause of the crowds or to quietly have my own life?
(Excerpted from The Secret of Letting Go, Rev. Edition, Llewellyn, 2007)

Nothing in the universe can stop you from letting go and starting over!

Give your customers the OOMPH …Feelings

Hiya, how are you? I have finally cleared a lot of my stuffs and now more settled down to start doing my favorite things, like writing, blogging, connecting with people in the blogosphere, friends and acquaintances alike.

After all the physical work, my body sent me a message, telling me this “Hey, sweetie, I need a good rest, and if you can give me a good massage, I will be most happy”

..and my response to my dear body.. “Yes, sweetie, thank you for being my good body, supporting me to do so much during this relocation. You certainly deserve a good treat from me.. here we go… to have a good massage”

So I went. Due to my relocation, I wanted to try a new spa which is near my new place.

When I entered the spa, the lady was nice and told me about their services. I asked about the price and was told of a promotion that they are giving. So I thought I’d just try out their skills. With massages, I am very particular with their skills, the way they handle my body….

I will judge their skills by the strength of their touch. Too soft, it will be like just tickling me, but I don’t like it when it is too strong either, it’s like placing yourself in a torture chamber :) The touch of the masseur must be just right, the timing too.

When the massage has finished, if there is a OOMPH ..this is good response, the masseur has done a great job. But if there is no oomph feeling it will be thumbs down for this masseur.

Hmm.. what I can say is that I didn’t feel the “OOMPH ..this is gooooood feeling” by this masseur. She just “ did her job ”, and I could tell. So when I got up from the massage bed, I was not too excited about it.

You know when you get to the counter to pay, you will be given some “pushing” with some sales pitch to sign up a package they are offering.

Becos I didn’t have the “OOMPH feeling” I was not about to sign up anything with this spa. The poor lady had to do a lot of hard work to try to convince me. Nope, I will not budge. So after turning her down many times, she finally gave up. I walked out not feeling anything.

Another time, I went to another spa to try. Again, there was also a promotion to try their massage before we commit to take up anything from them or not.

This time, the masseur did a fantastic job,, she really gave her all, everything was just right, and after the whole massage, I was not only feeling the OOMPH … but also the “Holala” feelings. So when I sat down at the lounge, she didn’t have to convince me to sign up for their package. In turn I asked her lots of questions about their spa and services.

So I took up a package with them without the lady pushing me to sign up.

The moral of the story? What have I learned from this experience ?

The first impression ALWAYS counts

1. The first impression ALWAYS counts and is also a determining factor
whether your potential customers will return or not in the service line, as well as when you are offering products.

Do Your Best

2. Do your best, do it with all your heart and soul when it comes to offering your services, or products even though you are giving a trial period for your customers.
Don’t think that you will only give the meat when your customers pay the full price and only give half the meat when you are offering the trial period. If you do decide to let your customers try your products or services,
then give your best, not half best. The 1st masseur has lost me as their clients because I could tell by the way of your commitment…btw, she didn’t even give me the full one hour massage as promised.

Hard selling is the most tiring work in the world

3. If your services and products are great, you really don’t have to “push” your customers to invest in them. You only have to give more information about your products and services, and the customers will decide to go ahead or not.

Well, maybe just a little help to nudge them but no need to hard sell. Hard selling is the most tiring work in the world.. in my opinion. I will also remind myself of this experience consistently. So that I can offer my best when I have my own products to offer.

However, over the course of time, I have used some products that are great, and they do deliver what they promised.

My recommended list of quality products:

1. Bill Harris’ CenterPointe Holoysnc Brainwave technology

2. Mike Brescia’s Think Right Now

3. Guy Finley’s “The Secret of Letting Go

4. Lorraine Cohen’s “Transform Your Fear Into Power
