Getting the Results

YOU Want!

Six Reasons Why We Don’t Achieve…Better Results:

• We don’t know what to do differently.• We don’t know how to do differently.• We don’t know why to do differently.• Our “chosen” situations won’t allow

us to do differently.• We don’t want to do differently.• Our beliefs/principles need work.

Definition of Results:

“Results are the outcomes—the visible, tangible consequences of a particular action.”

Definition of Insanity:

“To keep doing what you’ve been doing and expecting different results!”

Objectives:• Identify underlying human needs that

influence our belief system.• Understand how our belief system

influences our rules to live by, behavior patterns and actions.

• Understand how our behavior patterns and actions influence personal and business results.

• Understand that by changing our belief system, we can change our rules, behavior patterns, actions, and get better personal and business results.

7 Natural Laws:• If the results of your behavior do not meet your needs, then there

is an incorrect principle on your belief window.• Results take time to measure.• Growth is the process of changing principles on your belief window.• Addictive behavior is the result of deep and unmet needs.• If your self-worth is dependent on anything external, you are in big

trouble.• When the results of your behavior do meet your needs over time,

you experience inner peace.• The mind naturally seeks harmony when presented with two

opposing principles.
