Are you not satisfied with your current situation?

Do you not have as much money as you would like, or as much success as you had hoped for?

Or maybe you do not have the type of body and health that you desire, or the type of relationships that you ultimately want?

If so, you are not different than the majority of people.

Most people are not completely content with where they have ended up, and they would love to start over if they had a chance.

The truth is that you do have a chance to start over, and you can do so starting today, this very minute.

I want to share 10 valuable motivation start over tips from the psychology of winning by Dr. Denis Waitley.

Follow the advice given in the following principles and apply them into your life and you will be able to make the transformation from wherever you currently are, to the life of your dreams.

#1- take the blame and the credit for your position in life honestly and openly.

#2- use the volition of " I have decided to," in place of the compulsion "I have to." Use " I am more comfortable doing this," in place of " I am afraid to do that," the inhibition, as a condition for non participation.

#3- carry the affirmative motto: " my rewards in life-will reflect my service and contribution," with you in every daily transactions.

#4- learn how to relax mentally and physically, using meditation, mind relaxation, or biofeedback techniques-instead of external stimulants and depressants.

#5- set a specific time frame each week, preferably each day, to initiate action letters and action calls in your own behalf. Don't wait for invitations to succeed-you'll go into the losers' hall of fame as one of those almost-made-its with "permanent potential." Go for it!

#6- " action TNT-action today not tomorrow." Carry this motto around you and make it part of your lifestyle. Handle each piece of incoming mail only once. Answer phone calls as quickly as possible.

#7- sit down and create your own best horoscope on paper. List positive alternatives to habits that you seriously want to change. Seek out authorities with proven records of success after whom to model your winning habits.

#8- for the next 30 days, go all out in your current job. Whenever you have chosen as your life's work, remember your current job could care less about you one way or another-only you can take the initiative to give your job what it has deserved all along.

#9- invest in your own knowledge and skill development. Since the only real security is the kind that inside each of us, practice what Ben Franklin wrote: " if an individual empties his purse into his head, no one can take it from him." Seminars, books, tapes-take charge!

#10- set your alarm a half hour early tomorrow and leave it at the earlier setting. Use this extra half hour of your life to wake up and live. Use this time to answer the question-how can I best spend my time today on priorities that are important to me?


It is never too late in life to make a positive change in direction.

And it does not matter how mediocre or even miserable your situation seems, you still have the unlimited power to create the life of your dreams.

Motivation start over is the starting point.
