    • WELCOME TO THE WINNER CIRCLE FOR THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER 09 (Because we all are winners) Do you look at the future with hope and a belief that no matter what comes your way, you will succeed? Or, do you look at the future as hopeless, and there's nothing that can be done to change it? What you believe has a lot to do with how well you weather the challenges in life. Continuing on with our conversation thread of this week, today let's talk about how our beliefs affect what happens to us. A couple of things to keep in mind: 1) As human beings, we move toward and become like what we think about; and 2) Our present thoughts determine our future. As human beings, we are teleological or goal-oriented. Also, we are picture-oriented. We think in pictures. If I say, "red apple" you don't see the words "red" and "apple." In your mind, you actually "see" a red apple. You see, we don't see with our eyes. We pick up light with our eyes and then it is translated into images in our brains, depending upon how we've been conditioned to translate the light. Words create pictures, and we are drawn to pictures. So, if you believe the future is hopeless, you will be drawn to every hopeless, depressing, "it's only going to get worse" story you can find. We are comfortable when we find evidence to prove what we believe is true, and we act in accordance with those beliefs. This is also known as a self-fulfilling prophecy. "I knew it was going to be bad, and it is." The same thing holds true if we believe the future is full of opportunity, and that we have the power to make it even better. We will see evidence of the possibilities, and be drawn to them because that's what we are thinking about. It is not surprising that people who look with positive intent are healthier, happier and more successful. How do we make that switch in belief? It's all about changing that internal picture you hold, it isn't going to happen by accident. It will come by your intent

    • Zune MVPs are essentially folks who are a bridge between you (in this case as a Zune user) and Microsoft (in this case the Zune team). In addition to helping people get the best use out of their Zune devices we get a direct line to the Zune team to tell them what's on your mind so they can have that information when they're making future developments of hardware, software and the social. (Yes, this my canned response, haha).
