1. This Week's Jumpstart

You know there are times in our lives when everything just seems to work, like we are firing on all cylinders -- moving like a well-oiled machine -- and life is good. And then there are the other times, right? Well, in the past year and a half or so, life is good. I'm really excited about some new ventures and ones that have come to fruition after much labor and sweat poured in. My recent collaboration with Maryann Rosenthal in the form of our Seeds of Greatness parenting program has been one of those projects that was a long time in coming, but watching the impact of it has been humbling to say the least.

One of the new ventures I am truly excited and very gratified to be a small part of is The Success and Training Network. This is the kind of opportunity that comes around maybe once in a lifetime, and I've grabbed on with both hands. This is such an amazing opportunity and I'm proud to have my name and reputation associated with it. The faculty gathered for TSTN is a growing list of "Who's Who" in the top leading personal development trainers in the world -- and it's only going to keep getting better. TSTN is a first-class organization with huge successes under their belt, and this is the next level up!

TSTN's mission is to reach millions of families, to give them the tools, inspiration and support necessary to help them unlock their full potential, realize their dreams and live the life they were meant to live. Isn't that something you want to be part of? Right now you can watch TSTN via live streaming from anywhere in the world. You can also watch TSTN On Demand via the internet when you download the TSTN's interactive media delivery system SplashStream (TM) to your computer. But that is just the beginning, soon TSTN will release their cutting edge IPTV solution (Television over Internet Protocol) which will also allow you to watch TSTN Live & On Demand 24/7 from any TV - anywhere in the world! All you'll need is a broadband internet connection.

BUT, they want to take it one step further, they want you to be involved in creating a community. A community with live coaching and interaction between faculty, trainers and subscribers. As Jim Rohn says, join a group where the expectations are high, where you are motivated to grow and become more by those with whom you associate! Will you join me in impacting first ourselves, then those in our sphere of influence, and together we'll watch it ripple around the world?!

Self-Knowledge: The Key to Preparing for Competition by Denis Waitley

Self-knowledge has always been the key to preparing for competition. Knowledge of your attributes, abilities, interests, strengths, weaknesses, and traits is essential to riding the front end of the wave of change into the new century. To fully assess your own talents, realize that studies confirm that what we love and do well as children continues as our latent or manifest talent as adults.

Examination of your weekend or evening interests might reveal a gem of potential you can apply to your vocation. I strongly suggest you don’t unthinkingly relegate what you love to do for yourself solely to hobbies. You might make it, or at least integrate it into your life’s work.

The acquisition of knowledge, which is the new global power, is a life-long experience, not a collection of facts or skills. Not long ago, what you learned in school was largely all you needed to learn to secure a career. With knowledge expanding exponentially, this is no longer true. Hundreds of scientific papers are published daily.

Every thirty seconds, some new technological company produces yet another innovation. Your formal education has a very short shelf life. Life-long learning, once a luxury for the few, has become absolutely vital to continued success. Continue gaining expertise and avoid thinking like an expert.

Action Step - Increase Your Reading, Writing and Vocabulary Proficiency. One of the most important qualities of successful leaders is an ability to express thoughts and knowledge. Research by management and human resource experts confirms that no matter what the field of employment, people with large vocabularies - those able to speak clearly and concisely, using simple as well as descriptive words - are best at accomplishing their goals. Well chosen, carefully considered words can close the sale, negotiate the raise, enhance relationships, and change destinies.

In a world of email, fax dispersal, voice mail, sound bites, concise reports, business plans, and meeting briefs, the individuals who can articulate their goals, substantiate their claims, and support their visions, will own the future. In the 21st Century, literacy will be the major difference between the haves and have-nots.

Why do fewer than 10 percent of the public buy and read nonfiction books or spend time on daily personal development? One reason is that many would rather "get home" than get ahead. They are motivated to get by and get pulled along by the company, the economy, or the government.

Another reason is that many individuals believe that information found in books, computer programs, and training sessions has no value in the business world. How self-deluding!

As the new tools of productivity become the Internet, direct digital download of text, audio and video, and the combination of the interactive computer with telecommunications, the people who know how to control the new technologies will acquire power, while those who thought that education ends with the diploma are destined for low-paying, low-satisfaction jobs. In almost the blink of an eye, our society has passed from the industrial age to the knowledge era.

Increase your reading and personal development time by 100 percent. Decrease your regular television watching, and that of any children in your family by 50 percent. Surf the Internet and subscribe to personal development streaming channels and find book summaries or download free chapters from different sources. By reading book summaries, you can gain the essence of all the top business books in a very brief period of time.

Action Idea: Read at least one book each month, and listen to at least one additional audio book or education series during commute or down time.

Knowledge is the new power. And literacy is the door to knowledge.

3. Seeds of Greatness by Denis Waitley

Look Inside by Denis Waitley (This excerpt was taken from Denis Waitley's Seeds of Greatness Treasury)

Look Inside

When the prize seems high above you
And your mirror doesn't love you
Look inside

When the road to gold gets steeper
And your diamond's buried deeper
Look inside

Light a candle in your mind
Untold riches you will find
When you look for treasures
Look inside

When you're running low on laughter
And can't reach the goals you're after
Look inside

When your body starts complaining
And the clouds of doubt keep raining
Look inside

Close your eyes and then believe it
Trust yourself and you'll achieve it
When you're seeking answers
Look inside

5. Featured Product of the Week - Turn off Loser's TV and turn on Winner's TV!

 

"This quite possibly could be the most important breakthrough to take place in personal education in the last 50 years" - Dr. Denis Waitley

I'm very proud to announce one of the most exciting ventures I've ever been a part of:

TSTN - The Success Training Network. The name says it all. It's literally Success TV. 24 hours. 7 days a week. And it's available worldwide!

TSTN has put together the best training faculty the world has ever seen. Names like Ziglar, Rohn, Proctor and on and on. More than 50 and growing. Teaching everything from how to make money to how to invest it. They've got programs for your health, your relationships, your career and your self.

Plus, my show, The Winner's Edge!

And let me repeat --- because it's important --- it's available worldwide!

In the words of Jim Rohn, "What TSTN has created is the single greatest portal to relevant, life-changing content ever created." And humbly, I'm just happy to be a very tiny part of it.

And TSTN can do a lot for your life too. So turn off the Loser's TV and turn on the Winner's TV. More information is waiting for you at www.preview1.tstn.com?kbid=1043&sub=dw

By the way, TSTN doesn't have any monthly contracts or obligations. So it's easy to try. And you'll invest a lot less than you're probably spending on cable TV every month. If I had to choose one or the other, I'd choose Success! Wouldn't you?

To Your Winning Life!
Denis Waitley
