Get Your Life Right The First Time
Curves of Life
Curves Of Life
You only get one life, so you better get it right the first time.
I have found that if you understand the CURVES OF LIFE, you have a better chance of getting it right the first time around. What are the CURVES OF LIFE?
There are actually three curves. The first is called the gusto curve, the second is the money curve, and the third is the time curve. You don't need an advanced degree in mathematics to understand these curves. Here's how they work.
The gusto curve describes your ability and desire to enjoy true gusto throughout all the years of your life. When you are eighteen years old, and you feel immortal, and life stretches out before you like an endless adventure, you are at the top of your gusto curve. You will fearlessly try almost anything, and you will probably enjoy doing it.
When you are eighty years old, acutely aware of your mortality, and unwilling to take risks that could fill your remaining days with unremitting pain, you are at the bottom of your gusto curve.
That's not to say you don't enjoy your life at all. But it is to say that you now have a strong aversion to pain and suffering, and your definition of a good day is that all your organs are working properly, you can afford all your medications, and your arthritis isn't preventing you from enjoying your day. You are less concerned about gusto, and most of all, you want a pain free day.
The money curve is just the opposite of the gusto curve. When you are eighteen years old, you are stone cold broke. Money is in short supply, and you are at the bottom of your money curve. Conversely, when you are eighty years old, you have a pension with a mountain of cash in the bank, and you are at the top of your money curve.
The time curve runs parallel to the gusto curve. When you are eighteen years old, you have all the time you need to live your dreams. When you are eighty years old, you are at the bottom of your time curve. You savor each precious second because you don't know how much time you have left.
By now it should be clear that your gusto curve and time curve start at the top and eventually go down to zero. At the same time, your money curve starts at zero and exponentially climbs throughout your life.
At some point, these three curves cross paths. Before they cross, your life will have plenty of gusto and time, but not enough money. After they cross, your life will have plenty of money, but gusto and time will be in shorter and diminishing supply.
When the curves of life cross, an alarm should go off in your mind, because from that point on, time becomes more valuable than money. You are sliding rapidly down the gusto curve, and you are running out of time.
After those curves cross, you better be living your dreams, or they will probably never come true. This, of course, is not a hard and fast rule. Some people live with gusto into their nineties, but they are the fortunate few.
If you want to get it right the first time, check out the CURVES OF LIFE. This isn't a dress rehearsal, and you only get one life. You should live your dreams while you still have the ability and time to enjoy them.
When you get the CURVES OF LIFE right, there is no limit to how good your life can become.

Positive Self-Talk Silver Book
You can change who you are by changing what you say when you talk to your mind. Just be sure you are speaking a language your mind understands. Your brain speaks to you in its own language, and if you speak to it in the same way, it immediately responds in a powerful fashion. That’s why change proceeds most rapidly when you talk to yourself using the language of the mind. If you don’t speak the language of the mind, you may as well stop talking until you learn it. The three most powerful components of the language of the mind are images, sounds, and emotions. When my brain wants to get my attention, it does not send a text or an email. It blows me away with sights, sounds, and emotions. If you want to get your brain’s attention, you need to do the same thing. Send a message full of sights, sounds, and emotions. Start speaking the language that your mind understands. Positive Self-Talk Silver Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.

Limiting thoughts are a disguised form of negation. They are a way that I say no to life while pretending that life is saying no to me. Limitations are plausible self-deceptions. They are prefabricated excuses for every failure to be what I want to be and to do what I want to do. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking

If I am having trouble geting permission to do the things I want to do, I need to take a look in the mirror. The person in the mirror is the only one who can give me permission to go for my dreams. All other permission rituals are irrelevant. My life is mine alone, and that is sufficient authority to grant whatever permission is required. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
The way I use my mind defines what it means to be me. At the most basic level, I am what I think about all day long. My mind is the only part of me that can change or that would ever be worth changing. If I want to change who I am, I must change the collection of thoughts that defines what it means to be me. Maximum Strength Positive Thinking
I will live the rest of my life as if I am a great person. I will practice being great each day of my life. I have only one life, and I may as well make it a great one.

Positive Self-Talk Purple Book
Living small serves no great purpose. Living as if you are a great person is a powerful idea that changes lives, and those who take it seriously change their world. Living as if you are great means you live as if your dreams are possible and work each day to make them happen. You act as if you cannot fail. In order to live as if you are great, you have to think the way great people think, talk the way great people talk, and act the way great people act. Great people think, talk, and act their dreams into existence. If you ever become great, it will be because you think great thoughts, repeat great self-talk, have great expectations, and act as if you cannot fail. Some people wrongly believe that change is impossible. Leopards don't change their spots, and zebra stripes are forever. But people are different. People change their stars. They change their stripes, and their spots disappear in an instant of time. That instant happens the moment they develop positive expectations and believe they have the power to change. Positive self-talk and positive expectations can take you anywhere you want to go. Positive Self-Talk Purple Book is now available in ebook format at Amazon, iTunes, Kobo and Barnes and Noble.
