Positive Thinker Steve Pavlina

Positive Thinker Steve Pavlina

This week’s quotes come from the nationally known inspirational speaker and master of psychology  Steve Pavlina (April 14th, 1971 –), has influenced the direction of the power of thought for years.  His blog, books, and seminars have pushed the envelope in exploring and redefining what it means to think, and to think positively.  Steve is the voice of positive thinking for the 21st century onlineHe has written more than 1000 articles and recorded many audio programs on a broad range of self-help topics, including productivity, relationships, and spirituality.  His website, www.stevepavlina.com , ranks as one of the most successful (and influential) in the world.  And he did it all on his own.

It all started for Steve at the age of 19 after spending a night in jail for petty theft, and being expelled from school.  He knew that’s not life he wanted, and he decided then to make changes.  While developing his own sense of positive-thinking, he earned two college degrees in three semesters, in computer science and mathematics.

Since his self-improvement journey began, he sought to share with others all the things he’s learned.  Starting his own Blog, StevePavlina.com, he quickly shared his profound insight in regularly updated posts and articles.  It’s a Blog for those who think.  You won’t just find simple platitudes here.  You’ll find them explored and expounded upon with insight and intelligence.

Steve put all his energy into his site, and it quickly gained popularity and support.  He now brings in 6-figures a month, from his site aloneTalk about trafficAnd it just goes to show you… if you combine proven-marketing strategy with a deep passion, you can find success.  And Steve did.

So check his site out, you won’t be let down.  He truly is one of the best positive-thinkers in the world today.

Now for some Steve Pavlina quotes:

Persistence of action comes from persistence of vision.

So act boldly, as if it’s impossible to fail. If you keep adding fuel to your desire, you will reach the point of knowing that you’ll never quit, and ultimate success will be nothing more than a matter of time.

Courage is the dividing line between weakness and strength of character.

Courage is the gateway in the sense that you must first learn to face down your fears, even as they still appear real to you.

One of my core beliefs is that belief itself is a choice that can be made of our own free will.

The more disciplined you become, the easier life gets.

Willpower is a concentration of force. You gather up all your energy and make a massive thrust forward.

Our beliefs act as lenses. These lenses can help us see things we can’t otherwise see, but they can also block us from seeing parts of reality.

Passion and purpose go hand in hand. When you discover your purpose, you will normally find it’s something you’re tremendously passionate about.

By courage I mean the ability to face down those imaginary fears and reclaim the far more powerful life that you’ve denied yourself.

True courage is more a matter of intellect than of feeling.

Courageous people are still afraid, but they don’t let the fear paralyze them.

Some good quotes that really make you thinkStevePavlina.com is definitely worth a visit.  It’s easy to navigate around, and he touches on so many topics you’ll be sure to find something helpful and useful.

Hi Everyone,

Hope you all had a good weekend. Now its time to maintain motivation.

Maintaining motivation is a key factor in life’s journey. Life supplies us with a constant stream of information, events, and opportunities. It is difficult to keep sight of the goal and the process while maintaining the initial level of motivation which burned so brightly when it was new.

To actually stay motivated requires a daily habit. How you construct that daily habit is up to you. Bottom line is that you need to reinforce, reinforce and reinforce your own thoughts and desires so that you stay focused, focused and focused on where you want to be 365 days from today.

Developing a habit is to understand that attitudes are habits of thought. These attitudes are merely reflections of our foundational belief system that holds all of our experiences and knowledge. Much of this belief system has become so internalized that it is subconscious or what some call on automatic pilot.

Motivation techniques are essentially the internal fuels that keep our thoughts on the conscious level so that we do not allow unconscious thoughts from years of previous negative conditioning to take over. This is why changing actions or behaviors can be very difficult.

Regardless of your motivation techniques, the key to actually be successful requires that you use them each and every day as you travel the road to success. Keep that fuel as a constant stream into your conscious thoughts and life will be good for you if not even better.

Chaz, MaxPro System
