Rhonda Britten: http://www.fearlessliving.org/

Have you resigned your self to a life of perceived security rather than investing in the uncertainty of a life yet unrealized? Is that living?

Wait a minute! Something has gone horribly wrong...who is that in the mirror?

What if your life as it is now was in fact the perfect blueprint for that which you truly desire? Would it change the way you approach your day?

There is a road that lies between living and existing. Are you denying your creative power?

Is the pain and discomfort of where you are greater than the pain and discomfort of what it is going to take to move you out of it? What is that you are avoiding? What have you given dominion over your life?

The wisdom that you desire is within you. Are you listening?
Callings: http://www.unitychicago.org/uniRADIO/channel2/

Your life lived is a declaration of who you are. It's not about what you say, but what you do.

Don't become overwhelmed by the idea of your life purpose...how about your purpose for today?
Jean Houston interview: http://unitychicago.org/uniRADIO/channel2/

Are you speaking words of possibility or limitation?

What if a little inconvenience accelerated your own success as well as the success of another?

Your performance opportunity is the currency of the organization. It is you (not your boss) that is responsible for effectively managing your success.

Are you asking for what you want? I AM.

Sometimes we are the judge, jury and the executioner. It is even more of a problem when we are also the accused!

Don't wait until later to listen!

Words do harm you.

We stand in the polarity that is truth and emotion.
DEDICATED TO TOM DIALS (1969-2007)

Are you investing where you will get a favorable return?

Not all of the terrorists are "out there." You are inviting some of them into your home...every evening.

You may either seize the day or allow it to seize you. There are no other options.

They walk amongst us. Are you one of them?
Rx for Success webisode: http://unitychicago.org/uniRADIO/channel2/

Stop taking your self and others so seriously. Remember the true objective. If you are not ultimately in pursuit of greater joy, what is the point?

You cannot get where you are going unless you know where you have been.

Answer the call.
Callings: http://www.unitychicago.org/uniRADIO/channel2/

The road to success is a bumpy ride.

Is there a relationship between success and intimacy?

Believing is seeing.

There is nothing common about your success.

We can either hold on to the anger or we can let go...

You are on the verge of something incredible. Do you feel it?

You cannot repel; you can only attract. What if "now" is a gift to give you that which you deeply desire?
Rx for Success radio show: http://www.unitychicago.org/uniRADIO/channel2/index.php

In order to make the law of attraction work in your favor, you must appreciate your life RIGHT NOW.

Some things are so important that they need repeating: THE LAW OF ATTRACTION (7 Minutes). Watch Oprah, Thursday, February 8th!

What do you know now that you did not know "then"?

Success requires commitment. Have you made one?

If you truly want to succeed, the "what?" needs to take priority over the "why?"

Your soul contains all of the information that you need to be successful. Are you listening?

What are 100 things that you would like to do during the course of your life?

Why not spread a little fun? Is success without joy truly success?

Thoughts create. What are you creating right now?

How can you define your overall success if your are unclear about your life's purpose?

Take a moment to find your anchor....

Why a strategic life plan? 13 minutes

Success will continue to elude it if you do not define it!

Success-minded people have no time or energy for whining. Like attracts like...what are you attracting?

If you are waiting for things to be "right," before you take action, you are limiting your own potential.

Love is the most valuable of our assets; yet, we do not always invest wisely. Can you really be successful without the ability to love fully?

Are you living your truth or a persona?

Successful people are clear about their personal definition of success. Are you?

If you want more success in your life, create greater success for another. How about today?

Not all wars are fought on the battlefield. If you cannot make the connection between peace and success, you are disconnected.

If you wish to exceed your own limitations, you must access the wisdom of your experience. In order to do that, you must acknowledge your previous accomplishments. Unnecessary humility does not serve you!

Awaken...it is not just your success that is at stake..it is the health and vitality of the world.

Are you nourishing your success? Without a little TLC, it will not be arriving at your house!

Success is, in large part, a matter of perspective. Have you stopped long enough to consider yours?

Success is an evolutionary process. Your intention, commitment and faith must precede any hope for measurable results.

If you wish to succeed in your intentions...in your goal-setting, your goals must be clear, measurable and achievable. It is not enough to intend well, you must do well (otherwise, it is self-sabotage!).

It is the topic that seems to peak the most curiosity and interest and one that is worthy of repeating. Are you using this secret consciously?
Special offer for first 5 respondents--3 sessions, $100! 773.275.6666

If you truly desire greater good in your life today, why not expect it? I mean right now!

...manage the way that you feel. You are the creator of the condition of your life. Success should feel good, shouldn't it?

It seems that the entire world is conspiring...to shower you with blessings. (courtesy of Rob Brezsney). 12 MINUTES

You have been awarded a blank page. Your life is yours for the creation. What do you want?

This year, set your self up to succeed, rather than fail. This is your life! Don't you deserve more? For additional help: 773.275.6666

The revolution will NOT be televised. It is a new year. It is UP TO YOU.

BAH HUMBUG! -or- Jingle Bells...it really is up to you.

A Special 1-hour podcast--an interview with Mark Ward on "Conditioning for Greater Success." Hosted by http://www.successprogrammer.com
SPECIAL OFFER for listeners at end of program

If you wish to change your life, you're going to have to begin to tell the FULL truth.

Sometimes pain is the opportunity to deepen your truth

If you are not feeling "it," then you are not successful.

Rather than being paralyzed by the "big picture," consider simply focusing on "better."

Has your definition of success been constructed by YOU or your EGO?

Once you deny the negative thoughts, what do you replace them with? What if you do not know who/what you want to be? (9 minutes)

Rather than looking for success, CHOOSE IT.

Success by any definition is a reconditioning process. The workout is in your head. Change your thinking, change your life!

What if you have been climbing the ladder your whole life only to find that it is against the wrong wall?

Do you feel good? If not, it's time to stop pretending that it is dependent upon your circumstances. Good feelings, like success, are chosen.

Trapped in your job? Imprisoned by your life? If you desire a better life, you are going to have to begin to tell the truth.

You are the problem AND the solution.

In order to succeed, you must ALLOW success to come into your life. If you say you cannot, then you can not because you WILL NOT.

It's not the time that is limiting your effectiveness, it is your choices.

Hear Mexico-->Sintonizar-->"Condition for Success"

If you believe that greater success will improve the condition of your life, you have the formula backward. One actually creates the other (and it is the opposite of what most believe to be true).

You are NOT a victim of people or circumstance; you are only the victim of your own story. Perhaps, it is time to create a new narrative.

It is the question that is at the root of all success. It is not simply about what you DO; it is also about WHO you are. You are the common denominator in all that you do.

You have to want what you have to get what you want. What better day to pause and take inventory? You really are fantastic, remember?

You are an energetic being--if you want to live the life of your dreams, you have to experience yourself IN your desire NOW (law of attraction!)

You are the only light that will transform your life or the world. Put on your sunglasses and get to work!

What is the single greatest principle of success? The Law of Attraction--what is it? How is it used?

Who do you want to be? You are the common denominator in all that you do.
Need help? Call us! 773.275.6666

Is the truth of who you are reflected in your thoughts, words and actions?

...you're never going to have it. This does not mean you're a failure, it means you're human. Imagine how accepting this fact might actually contribute to your greater success!

What if you knew that success was guaranteed and you could not "screw it up"?

Expand your opportunity for success by expanding your horizons. Begin today!

In search of the source of your discontent? It is not the condition of your life, it is Y-O-U. (Damn! That's harsh!).

What if you were to live fully? Who would you be, then?

When is the last time that you listened to your inner voice? You might be surprised at its wisdom!

Are you allowing the "facts" to limit the possibilities? Why not be the exception rather than the rule?

If you have not laughed in a while, you are taking it all too seriously. LIGHTEN UP!

Your gift is often your "shadow." Rather than trying to change who you are, why not use all of it to create greater success?
Need some help creating greater success? CALL 773.275.6666

Truth is experienced. It is not taught. Stinks, doesn't it?

Clarity gives birth to responsibility. One must rise up in every capacity if greater success is your goal.

Need clarity? Call 773.275.6666

Success is chosen. There is no time like the present. For what are you waiting?

Not the one at the mall, the one that separates your thoughts from your actions (yes, that one!).

Need help bridging the gap? Call 773.275.6666

It's one of your most powerful weapons--where is yours directed?

"U-NAME-THE-PRICE" coaching offer continues. Call 773.275.6666 for appointment.

You are the artist of your own life. What is it that you are creating?

We are more alike than different...so, why not act like it? Rather than focusing on what is NOT, consider the traits that you share. Imagine.

Eat from the good china. You are breathing, aren't you?

Gratitude feeds success. Try it, you'll like it!

You will never succeed by trying...you MUST do. What is yours to do?

Your way is the only way that you will ever succeed. Others can provide perspectives, but ultimately, it is your recipe that "wins the prize!"

Feeling stuck? Let us help. Call 773.275.6666

Success is reciprocal. The Golden Rule is really a truth (rather than a rule).

World peace begins with you. Why not create a little?

Success is only possible if you take the time to recognize it.

Cynicism is a self-inflicted virus. Are you willing to surrender the comfort of saftey of being right to be successful?

It is often the experience of what you do not want that opens you up to your true desire.

For every shadow, there is a gift. You must look beyond the darkness to get to the light.

*$20 Tuesdays this week--1-Hour coaching session for subscribers--$150.00 value!* Contact Mark@NuDesign.com for appointment.

Are you still pretending that you do not know what you want? Didn't your mother tell you not to lie?

When is the last time that you stopped to smell the roses?

If you wish to succeed, you must transcend your ideas of limitation.

Even in the midst of pain, there is a gift...if you will look for it.

The match will not be televised, but I assure you that one looks better in the trunks! Note: Today's podcast is 7:30 in length (you looked like you needed more time and attention!).

Stress is so...80's. Besides, are you really sure that it goes with your shoes?

The journey is usually easier if you have selected a destination.

Bathing in the illusion of perfection, again? You have to be "in it to win it."

It is not at some point in the future. It is NOW. Make it count!

I hate to oversimplify it (but, it's true): Go within or go without. It's in there!

If you really want to see inside the crystal ball, look in the mirror. You are your future (ours, too!).

Are you investing in the probablity of failure or the possibility of success?

Sometimes in the midst of it all, you simply have to breathe. Know that there are no accidents (and that includes your presence on this planet!).

Understanding cannot be borrowed, you have to EARN it. Is fear tempting you to fake it?

"What is reality, any way? It's a collective hunch."--Jane Wagner (for Lily Tomlin)

Are you using a widely accepted perception as the foundation for inaction? Create anew!

You already have everything that you need to succeed. Resist the temptation to defend your limitations and get on with it!

The game is your life and you can win the big prize (without having to eat cockroaches or be humiliated on national television). Imagine....

Success is a choice. By the way, not making a choice IS making a choice. Why not make a choice that serves you?

Rather than tapping into the sentiment, drama and fear, use the tragedy for greater good.

The key to effective living is in the questions that you ask, rather than the answers that you seek. Hmmmmm.....

It is a concept and perception that does not truly exist. If that is true, what value is there in the illusion?

If there is indeed order to chaos, why not choose peace?

Is your success (or lack thereof) a conditioned response or a reflex?

You are a product of your beliefs. Is what you believe serving or inhibiting your success?

Do you limit possibility and create disappointment through the illusion of control?

TICK, TICK, TICK....it is not the time that works against you, it is you.

Dorothy traveled down miles of yellow brick road before she realized that she had everything that she needed all along. Hello, Dorothy!

You have the power to transform in THIS MOMENT.

Are the choices you are making aligned with your intentions for your life? There is no better time to act than NOW.

There is power in truth. If you are living someone else's truth, you are sabotaging your success.

Would you prefer to be a character in another's story or the hero of a story that you write?

Treat your dreams like your children. Keep them out of harm's way! This is your life in the making--respect and nurture it if you really want it to come to fruition.

We often limit our success by attempting to dictate the nature or means of its arrival. How often is disappointment the result of our refusal to surrender?

What is this thing called "FUN"? When is the last time that you had some of it? How might this be inhibiting your success?

Consciousness is a skill. In order to create more good, one must be awake to the possiblity. Rise and shine!

It is said that if you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything. For what do you stand? How does that translate into action in your life today?

If the events of your life are messages, what are they trying to tell you? Are you listening?

This evil thing called "change" is often an invitation to return to a life of greater possibility, adventure and vitality.

Your reality is a product of your past. Does the way that you see the world contribute or inhibit your success?

Fear is not the enemy, but it needs to be managed (or it become overzealous and obstructive).

You are the common denominator in every effort of your life. If you are not giving to your self, how can you possibily hope to succeed?

Sometimes taking time to gain greater clarity about what you would like to create is the most important (and often most ignored) activity. Remember when you were a child and used to dream?

What if you stepped outside of your self today? Peace is created one person at a time. Idealistic or true?

Are you more invested in action, reaction or inaction? Consider the opportunities that stand before you!

A savvy investor does his/her homework prior to investing capital. It is amazing how often we do not give the same attention to our most precious investment--our energy. Are you investing where you will get a favorable return?

We have a tendency to reject that which we consider "negative" or "unwanted," yet is the presence of these circumstances and realities that inspire us to create something better.

When you are visited by tragedy and misfortune, it is an opportunity for you to awaken to something bigger and better in your life.

Your life is the result of your choices (it is the effect that you cause). Remember, not making a choice is a choice (INDEED!), so why not be conscious about what serves you?

Peace is the culimination of conscious choices. It is created, one person at a time. You may either remain paralyzed at the depth and breadth of the discord in the world or you may begin to create peace where you show up every day.
