B.  SCIENCE OF SELF-MOTIVATION NEWS.

1.  New Research Results:  You CAN reduce the risk of Alzheimer's, and that isn't even the BEST NEWS!

     The New England Journal of Medicine, just this month, has published the results of a 20 year study conducted at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York. Findings:  Those people who regularly take part in mentally challenging activities can reduce their risk of dementia (Alzheimer's) by a whopping 47-63%.  And of course, those who were most active (four times per week vs. one time per week, for example), gained the most!

     The research Director, Dr. Joseph Verghese said that any challenging activity, such as solving crossword puzzles, playing cards, spelling words backwards, or even dancing, or reading pages upside down, can spur the brain to establish new connections, or perhaps, as Gary Small from UCLA indicates, even to grow NEW brain cells, which might compensate for any loss of brain cells because of a progressive disease such as Alzheimer's.

     Some critics however, such as Bill Thies from the Chicago Alzheimer's Association, caution that the "Use it or lose it" theory has not yet been totally proven scientifically.  I wonder what more proof he needs?  But regardless, the experts are saying, you don't need to wait for that proof:  you must build fun, mentally challenging activities into your daily life!  Keep your brain active, and vary that regular challenging activity, and you 'may' protect yourself against future memory loss.

     NOW HERE is the REST of the STORY!  If you are interested in developing permanent self-motivation skills and the great success and achievements that go with it, the above research is great news.  Do you see it?  The scientists are looking for cures and treatments for Alzheimer's, but YOU can take this same information and results, and turn them into techniques for permanent self-motivation!

     When you attempt a new task, or strive to reach any goal,  the more neuron connections you have, the greater your chances of success.  And the more neuron connections you create by using the 9 Science for Success Techniques, the less likely you are to "lose it", and your motivation and achievements will become 'Permanent'. Especially if the challenge is great, because this will increase the emotion levels, which in turn will increase the number of new connections you are creating!

     You don't have to wait until you are 75 to benefit from these neuroscience findings!  They apply and work NOW!  No matter what your age.  And even if you are 75, they will still work for you!  THAT is the BEST NEWS!

     If you want a TON of ideas for mentally challenging activities, go to www.google.com and do a search for "brainteasers" or "puzzles".  You will find a zillion!   Also check out www.thinks.com

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

2.  "FUTURE MEMORY"  What you absolutely must have and do before you undertake any new task or you are doomed to failure!

     "Future Memory" is the term given by Dr. Richard Restak, neuroscientist, to refer to your ability to look forward to future goals and keep them in mind in the now (present), so that nothing can sidetrack you from your goals.  You as a human, are the only creature that is not limited by space and time.  You can already imagine yourself in possession of the things you want, or reaching the goals you set to achieve.

     In recent neuroscience research studies using a PET scanner to image brain activity to see that which has never been seen before:  brain activity for "pure thoughts" alone without physical movement or activity associated with that thought.

     At the Institute of Neurology in London, Dr Richard Frackowiak and others, have found HUGE implications from the PET scan studies.  They have provided sound evidence of the benefits of mental rehearsal!

     It is now absolutely proven scientifically, what professional and very skilled athletes have secretly known for some time:  Imagining a complex or skillful movement, over and over in your mind, can actually help to physically or mentally to improve its performance!  The PET scans have placed this heretofore  'theory' or intuitions on firm neurological grounds. The same neurons in your brain are used for mental practice and for real practice!

     For example. the process of imagining yourself going through the motions of a complex musical or athletic performance activates brain areas that improve your performance when you thereafter DO the activity.  WHAT AN ASTOUNDING THOUGHT! 

     If you practice this future memory before you undertake new projects.  You are creating new neuron patterns (My golf swing is ALWAYS perfect in my mind!) that are perfect for your actual DOING of the act to follow! 

     First, think about what you want to achieve.  Second, come up with specific achievable steps to facilitate your goal.  Then, regularly review the steps leading to the desired goal and clearly envision yourself possessing what you desire.  Your brain will make it happen!  What an exciting astounding Science for Success Secret!  Don't tell your competition!

3.     What I learned about the Science of Success at my 40th High School Reunion.

     I grew up and went to high school in the wonderful small village of Germantown, Ohio.  My dad was a Minister there before his untimely death in an auto accident when I was just 13.  Germantown is a very warm and friendly town, where you knew just about everyone,  and that was okay.  I don't know why, but every memory I have of my youth always seemed to be a sunny day.

     My wife and I went up to Ohio for the 40th Reunion of the GHS class of '63.  We had 66 kids in our graduating class.  44 girls and 22 boys. (I loved those odds!).  About 25-30 of our class returned for the reunion.  Some of the 'kids' I hadn't seen since high school.

     Our school was not unlike most schools.  You had your "clicks" and your outcasts, your athletes, your cheerleaders and your "eggheads".  And as the years pass, you lose neuron connections that could recall all of school year memories.  And all of a sudden, there no longer are any lines between you.  Only a common bond of love and friendship.  So you spend time reminiscing and putting your brain on overload to re-fire those old memory connections.  It's a wonderful feeling.

     I made and renewed many, many hours of past history, and in the process learned a couple of valuable lessons.  Sometimes our distance from an experience, increases the size of the achievement (or the fish, as the case may be) in our mind's eye.  All those things we accomplished in school, somehow seem so insignificant now, but I know they're not.  They laid the neuron connections for our future memories, our future success.  And in that regard, what a wonderful job Germantown, Ohio did for the Class of '63.

     As I look at our classmates now, I see only success stories; every one by definition unique to them, has reached the pinnacle of a life-time of achievement.  It's the Journey you know!  And it's all relative.  What a wonderful group of people.  And each so fascinating!  I only wish I had known then, what I know now. I would have loved them more.  Find the success in everyone!  It's there!  Help every 'classmate' you have to get it out!  The Journey ends far too soon you know....

C.  BOOK REVIEW

Each month we will review a few of the books and/or research articles and studies that we have read. All of these books will have been published in just the last few years, since about 95% of what science now knows about the brain has been discovered in just the last 4-5 years! We will rate these books on a scale of 0-10 with ten meaning DON'T MISS IT! and 0 meaning DONT TOUCH IT! All opinions will relate only to the book's quality and functionality as it relates to the FOCUS and MISSION STATEMENT of Science for Success Systems and Seminars (see our website)

* * * *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  *  * 

1.  Any Atkins Diet Book!  Dr Atkins.  Yes that Dr. Atkins!  Yes, I know, I know!  Two of the late Dr Atkins, diet books are in the Top Ten on the New York Times Best-Seller list.  Can you believe that Crap!  Look, over 65% of the population of the United States is overweight.  At any given time, over 40 % of the adult population is on a diet, and over 70% of the population says they WANT to lose weight, if they could.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!  Don't you see it!  If this dern Atkins Diet or any other diet plan worked so well, there would be no need for the books to be in the Top Ten!  Of course the book will help you lose weight; THEY ALL DO!  That is not the problem.  The real, science-based problem is that in order to CHANGE your weight PERMANENTLY, you absolutely, positively must change what you think, how you think it, and how you eat: PERMANENTLY AND AUTOMATICALLY.  Otherwise, I don't care if you lose 200 pounds, it will not stay off.  You will gradually gain it all back--and then some!  This first thing that you must do is train your brain to think differently about food and eating.  But, neither the Atkins books, NOR ANY OTHER, even address this Neuroscience-based, brain-based major scientific reality!  SO STOP WASTING YOUR MONEY!  This diet book,  any and all diet books get the lowest rating possible: -0- ZERO ZIP.  Will somebody please, show me a diet book that addresses the real problem, challenge, and solution to weight control! There are NONE!  Because the solution is not a DIET at all!   RATING: -0-      (see our monthly special offers for great savings on our great Educational Systems and Tools below for my embarrassing-angry-confession)

D.  SCIENCE FOR SUCCESS TECHNIQUES TIME-TABLE

If you want to form the proper neuron connections within your brain to develop the new neurode patterns that will create your highest levels of achievement and success, you must follow a plan and schedule.

Here is what you have to do.  It is an intense 90-100 day plan to  Science-Based PERMANENT SELF-MOTIVATION!

[Note:  Because we had so much news for you this time, we are going to postpone the next steps in your 100 day Time Schedule for Success and continue it next issue so this Newsletter doesn't get too long this time.]  Here is what we will be covering:

3.  You must spend 24-30 days on S4S Technique #2, stomping your ANTS and turning or channeling them into positive positives!  This is absolutely key and essential!  Remember, the brain needs about 30 days to create enough new connections to create a new habit!

4.  AFTER your 30 days of Stomping your ANTS, you are ready to spend 3-7 days creating your dreams and goals, and creating IN WRITING (but not necessarily just words!) the specifics and deadlines for your long-term goals (5-10 year goals); your medium-term goals (1-5 year goals); and your short-term goals (1 day to 1 month to 1 year goals).

5.  After formulating your goals, you are now ready for one of your most important 30 day periods in your life!  You must now create and repeat your INNERSTATES (see our Systems and Tools for how these MUST BE FORMATTED!)
