The movie Pursuit of Happyness starring well known actor Will Smith and his son Jaden Smith (real life story) is about Chris Gardner who has big dreams for him and his family unfortunately it doesn't seem to come together for him. Chris has an opportunity to be a stock broker but first he has to go through a grueling internship which means no pay. Chris decides to do it but when his wife leaves and he is evicted, he has to take care of his son all by himself.
This leads to sometimes living on the street and struggling to get by. But, Chris is determined to make it. “I sometimes wonder, why did Chris wife leave him?” After all, he had used up all the family fortune to buy this elephant equipment in his bid to provide for his family during the Great Depression. At the end of the day Chris played by Will Smith only focus was to secure a Stockbroker Internship that would enable him to provide for his family. That was his Why!
Now, let me ask you…What are you fighting for? Is it your family, your business or simply to personally development yourself to prosper in every area of your life? No matter what your Why in life is, you must FIGHT against the negativity that tries to prevent you from succeeding. You must also equip yourself like a great warrior that overpowers the enemy. How? Simply, immerse yourself with positive, personal development that will radically change your life forever!
In this age which is almost running as fast as the speed of light, we are constantly bombarded 24/7 by all kinds of DISTRACTIONS. Some are legitimate. Family, work, etc. However Distractions take our eyes and time from fulfilling your Why.....Expert and gurus like John Di Lemme are telling us 'FOCUS just 15 Minutes each day on Personal Development and we will change our lives completely around.'
Here’s a few techniques that will prepare you for the fight against your No 1 enemy DISTRACTION…
1. Read inspirational books.
Throw away the gossip magazines that have absolutely no positive effect on your life. Do away with Nigerian Movies, Eastenders and Soccer. Instead listen to motivational success CDs. Why? It will ignite the fire in your heart to achieve your dreams. Turn off the television! No longer allow that garbage to infiltrate your mind and spirit. Instead watch DVDs about people and things that encourage you to be relentless in the pursuit of your Why in life. Watch Will Smith Pursuit of Happyness!
2. Attend events.
This is probably one of the most important steps that you can take to prepare you to stand strong against the enemy that is trying to steal your dreams. If you are in Network Marketing you should be attending your company event at least once a month. I’m talking about positive, motivational events not gossip sessions! Iron shapens irons. You need to surround yourself with people that have similar dreams. Check out www.plugin2profit.com John Di Lemme Lifestyle Freedom Club for Champions just like you!

3 Invest in yourself.
No, spending thousands of pounds on a brand new sports car or other unnecessary items is not what I am referring to. That’s a waste not an investment. You must invest not only your finances, but your time and energy in yourself in order to achieve your dreams. Attend Business Start-Ups Seminars, Business Networking Events, Rich Dad Poor Dad Events, etc. Most recently in the UK most of these conferences are advertised in the Metro, Evening Standard and the cost is usually FRE.E. Personal Development is still continued when you attend such seminars and conferences.
Take a good look at where you are wasting your TIME. Now, I know some of you reading this are saying, “Daisy, I am scheduled every minute of my day. I don’t waste time!” Here’s a revelation for you…being busy doesn’t mean that you are productive. If you are going to be prepared to give the enemy the fight of his life to protect your dreams, then you better believe enough in yourself to invest and not waste your precious TIME.
Give! That’s right…it’s that easy. Give to others. Whether you like it or not, you will reap what you sow. If you want to reap a bountiful harvest, then you better sow seeds of greatness in the lives of others. Giving doesn’t have to be about just writing a check to a charity. Sometimes it means so much more to just give your time to someone in need or speak words of encouragement over the life of a person that has been beat up by the world. When you develop the habit of giving, you will notice that your strength and belief in yourself will skyrocket. There’s simply nothing that can stand in your way!

I’ve given you some strategies to prepare for battle. So, let me ask you again…What are you fighting for? If you give up, then what you’re truly fighting for in life must not be that important. Just remember that every single time that you want to quit! Now, put on those boxing gloves and prepare to fight for yourself and your dreams. Go get’em Champion!
Your Time Has Come.....
