You’ve undoubtedly heard the old saying, “Behind every great man, there’s a great woman.” Well, here’s a variation for you... “Behind every great success, there’s a great system.” Though both the great woman and the great system go unnoticed, their presence makes all the difference in the world. Success is all around you. If want to create more success in both your professional and personal life – notice I did not say “attract more success” – you need to identify and emulate the system that’s producing it.

This quote often attributed to Nelson Mandela, but it’s actually from Ms. Williamson’s book, A Return to Love. Here’s the complete paragraph: “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” People mentioned in this episode: Marianne WilliamsonNelson MandelaJessie B.

What a simple, yet powerful turn of phrase from Dr. Dyer. He could sometimes get a little “out there” for my taste, but he never failed to inspire me.

See if you remember this TV ad jingle from the seventies: “I’m a Pepper, he’s a Pepper, she’s a Pepper, we’re a Pepper! If you drink Dr. Pepper, you’re a Pepper, too!” Hey, if you want to be a Pepper, that’s fine. One of the keys to life, though, is to not just be a Pepper. By all means, go ahead and drink a certain soda, drive a certain car, don’t let anything come between you and a certain pair of jeans – if you remembered the jingle; you’ll remember the jeans ad – but draw the bulk of your identity and self-worth from what you’re putting out into the world, and not from what you’re taking in.

This is very similar to one of my other favorite quotes by Henry Ford: "Whether you think you can't or think you can, you're right." I include this one because it specifically references the power of story, which is actually the title of Sports Psychologist Jim Loehr's book (The Power of Story). Always remember, people would rather hear a story than a fact. Don't believe me? Walk around a bookstore and see how much shelf-space is devoted to fiction verses non-fiction.

Yes, it's a classic. And, boy, is it ever worth reading again. Another variation I like, courtesy of Steve Chandler, is to see yourself as the problem in a given situation, even when you know you're not really the problem.

If I were a psychologist, my specialty would definitely be Cognitive Psychology, which this quote from Steve Chandler pretty much sums up in just a few words. CP focuses on the way we process outside information. When we apply faulty reasoning, invalid assumptions, and misconceptions to otherwise neutral events, we end up with “cognitive distortions.” Examples are “all-or-nothing” thinking, over-generalizations, and jumping to conclusions. The best book I’ve found on the subject is Feeling Good: The New Mood Therapy by Dr. David D. Burns.

Simple Secrets collaborates with a hand-selected group of entrepreneurs, small business owners, and independent practitioners – doctors, lawyers, dentists, veterinarians, CPAs, etc. – to maximize their incomes, allowing them more well-deserved focus, freedom and fulfillment. Simple Secrets was founded in 2015 by award-winning direct response marketer, entrepreneur, and consultant Chris Allen. In the pre-Internet 90’s, Chris developed and marketed millions of dollars worth of physical products on radio and TV – the old "operators are standing by" days – then used his time-tested warchest of successful marketing methods to go completely digital in 2002, when the Internet began to mature. For over a decade, Chris provided information and consulting services to a variety of Fortune 500 companies, including United Airlines, Saks Fifth Avenue, Sony, LexisNexis and The National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). When he’s not online, helping clients, Chris enjoys playing way too much Pickleball, and eating way too much pizza. Don't forget your FREE GIFTS!
