Diagnostic Test:
Stare for a few seconds at each of the
following patterns.
Are the patterns moving?
Or are they perfectly still??
The patterns are used to test the level of stress a person
can handle.
None of these images are animated - they are perfectly
still.
The slower the pictures move, the better
your ability of handling stress.
Senior citizens and kids see them standing still. Walang
stress!
Alleged criminals that were tested see them
spinning around very fast!
How did you do with the test??
Everyone has different
sources and kinds of
stress

Your MIND = your best friend
or your worst enemy
―You become what you think
about most of the time‖ – Earl Nightingale, The Strangest Secret

THE STORY OF NICK –
Family man. But a worrier and pessimist.
A railroad worker who always expected worse to happen... And then one day while working at the railroads
Nick got accidentally locked!
www.saltandlight.ph
Since he was in a
refrigererator car,
Nick assumed that
the temperature
inside was a freezing 0°C.
He started shivering
and thought to
himself, “I'll freeze to
death if I don’t get
out of here.”
Nick wrote a message to his wife and family
on a cardboard box:
“So cold,” “…body's getting numb. If I could just go to sleep. These may be my last words.”
www.saltandlight.ph
The strange thing was the boxcar‟s refrigeration unit was broken and the temperature inside was just around 16°C — far from freezing.
But the autopsy on Nick‟s body showed that he had frozen to death!

Nick’s thoughts froze
himself to death.
―As a man thinketh in his
heart, so is he.‖– Proverbs 23:7
King Solomon
What are the thoughts in
your mind?
What do you think about most of
the time?
Are you hopeful?
Or are you worried?
Study on Worry:
“What People
Worry About”
40% are worrying about things
that never happen anyway.30% are worrying about past,
unchangeable decisions.
12% are worrying about illnesses that never
happen.
10% are worrying about adult children and friends
(who are able to take care of themselves).
Only 8% are worrying about real problems.92% ng lahat ng pinoproblema ng maga tao are about
things that are not within our control!
Placebo Case Study
www.saltandlight.ph
Placebo heart surgeries anyone?
Businessweek, reporting on the economics
of the billion-dollar heart surgery
industry, reported that those who had
thought they had undergone laser
heart surgery to improve their blood
flow received the same
benefits as those who went through
actual heart surgery.
I.e. “Hindi na barado!”

What are the thoughts in
your mind?
What do you think about most of
the time?
Are you hopeful?
Or do you worry?
Think on these things…
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are
true, whatsoever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just, whatsoever
things are pure, whatsoever things are
lovely, whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be any
praise, think on these things. – Phil 4:8

Success MINDSET #3
ACHIEVE(Magsipag)
Work HARD
vs
EASY Money mentality
P80M Lotto Winner,
Naputulan ng Kuryente. "Last Sunday’s debut telecast (True
Stories on QTV featured) the story of
a man who won over P80 million playing the lotto sweeps—and
eventually lost most of it. In fact, his
fortunes have fallen so low that the
electricity in his ―mansion‖ has been
cut off, and his kitchen shelves are
bare. (Inquirer.net, 1/29/10.
Florida Lotto winner wished
he had never won. Family members say Abraham
Shakespeare, a truck driver's assistant,
was constantly hounded for a piece of
his $30 million lotto winnings.
Shakespeare's brother told The
Associated Press that Shakespeare
often wished he had never bought the
winning ticket. `` `I'd have been better
off broke.' He said that to me all the
time,'' Robert Brown said. (In April of
2009, Shakespeare was murdered and
buried in the backyard of his friend.) Read more: http://www.miamiherald.com/
80% of orders are written

persist to call or follow up 5 times
…and only 2% persist up to 7 times.

Entrepreneurial MINDSET
Magsipag…
But make sure YOU
OWN your business,
don’t let your business
OWN YOU!
Ask yourself these questions*:
How can I get my business to work,
but without me?
How can I get my people to work, but
without my constant interference?
How can I systematize my business
like a franchise?*source: Michael Gerber, The e-Myth
Entrepreneurial MINDSET
To avoid burn out...
FIRE yourself!
Find a way to make the
business run without
you.(April 8 story)
Entrepreneurial MINDSET
Bottomline:
Your business is NOT
your life.
Adolf Merckle (World‟s 94th richest,
Germany‟s 5th richest) stressed out by
financial crisis: Commits Suicide (Jan 6-09)
Entrepreneurial MINDSET
Your business is NOT
your life.
-Don’t make business your escape
from family responsibilities-Story of Anna (sought recognition from
business rather from family)
MY MINDSET
I ask myself these questions:
How can I work ON my business so
that I have MORE time for my
family?
Entrepreneurial MINDSET
Work ON your business by
creating systems.
Hire, delegate, outsource,
don’t do everything
yourself.
Entrepreneurial MINDSET
Work hard ON your business in
the first few years so that it can
run profitably and successfully
WITHOUT YOU for the next few
decades.
Entrepreneurial MINDSET:
Your business is not your life
Set your mind on not just
being a successful
entrepreneur,
But on being the most...
loving spouse, or parent, or
brother, or sister, or son or
daughter…
Entrepreneurial MINDSET:
Your business is not your life
“What does it profit a man if he
gains the whole world but loses
his soul?”
Entrepreneurial MINDSET:
Your business is not your life
At the end of your life, what
matters most is the love and
respect of those who matter
most.
So make sure that you own the
business and the business
does not own you…
MINDSETS:
RECAP:
You have a powerful mind. Think of what
you want to happen in your life.
Entrepreneurial Mindsets:
1. Mangarap (Dream)
2. Believe (Have faith)
3. Achieve (Magsipag, Magtiyaga)But remember that your business is not your life.
"For I know the plans I have for
you," declares the Lord, "plans
to prosper you and not to harm
you, plans to give you a
hope and a future.‖Jeremiah 29:11
