Following the Win of Melanie Amaro, lets review and look back at why she deserves to win and see if you have what it takes to win.

Just a recap of the video announcing her win.

And the song she song that lead her to securing the Victory Votes

And Now for the Winners Traits

1. Winner always delivers and shows consistency: She was never once in the bottom 2 during the contest.
2. Winners cherish every single opportunity right in front of them and hold onto it tightly, with her as the only contestant who was eliminated and revived prior to standing on the Live Stage Performance as she decides to accept Simon’s apologize and return to the competition.
3. Winners will conceal and reveal their true self only when the time is ripe, whereby in the above video playback of a segment she sang in her real voice with her unique slang that in the past was actually teased of it.
4. Confidence is something that winners have and they need to constantly strengthen that confidence in order to improve their performance and deliver results in order to receive positive feedback, recognition & acknowledge from fellow judges who’s supporting their own contestants.
5. Winners  will not crack under pressure and instant will turn it to their advantage and deliver stunning performance by over-delivering on what is expected of them. Referencing to the night where the the top few contestants have to sing their “Save Me Song”  instead of the pre-planned “Pepsi Song” with only 24 hours to practice.

Battle is the contest of strength and merits of individuals in a hostile engagement in any environment.

It is not simply a fight, instead it consist of many other factors and hopes pin onto that single or group battle of participants where dreams, hopes, dignity, reputation and pride are on the line.

Emerging victorious from a battle with valour is the pride of the winner representing not only himself, and also the coach, people who believe in the contestant/fighter, the same race and even the country he is representing.

When a contestant is selected, he no longer represents himself but represents all the people and is wearing the national flat in a battle. Living the dream and living up to the nation’s reputation, pushing themselves forward at times even if they themselves want to surrender at times.

That is when moral support, motivation, cheers works on the contestant who represents their dreams to push on and fight harder than before the results are announced.

In the technology era, there is no longer the physical battle. Instead it has all switched to the use of media, wanting to emerge as the winner in respective fields to be acknowledge as the global champion without engaging in fights which is also known as politics.

There are two concurrent wars happening in every single country on earth, the war of politics and government fighting on two fronts but using the same soldiers.

The top cabinet ministers are the politicians wanting to establish themselves as the good person helping other nations in need thus they go for bilateral ties and treaties with respective nations with mutual beneficial terms.

On the other hand, the same cabinet ministers are fighting their own battle with the civilians who are their boss and may pass the rights to run the country to another political group if they fail to satisfy their needs which are employment and ensuring everyone gets paid.

This is what I myself view as a losing battle, one person cannot fight on two fronts, moreover they don’t even understand what the external nations wants with their own country and there they are trying to win on both sides and are sinking on both ships with each leg stuck in a ship each, sinking along with them.

What kind of battle are you up against with? Who are your competitors? Are you representing yourself or your parents or even your own organization? What is it that you seek? Before you even have the desire for battle, what is the purpose?

Battle is the same in business, fighting everyday for profits, sales, clients, and with the objective in mind to win and emerge victorious thus growing rich, affluent into big companies and businesses.

Are you rich or in the process of making it? How do you plan to strategically move yourself up there and where are your alliances? Identify all these to increase your odds of success.

If you don’t plan, you plan to fail.

Failure is not a option but a chance to do self-reflection.

Obstacles are things which obstruct the path and hinder a process. It stands in the way of the flow attempting to delay or block something from being done.

Depending on the position and size of the obstacle, it will carry different impact. An obstacle in the air path will result in a lack of air thus causing death, similar a blood clot is equally lethal. If it is just a wall of maze to position a person or animal in, it is non-lethal and will properly just result in time wastage with no significant impact or life threatening situation.

As I was trying to do product creation during these few weeks upon long dragging, when I have started writing it, obstacles just keeps on coming, excuses find their way up to me, I find myself just not in a conducive environment which gives me so many disruptions.

Enough of the grumbling, at the end of the day, I know all these written are just excuses which I created and tell myself to give myself more reasons not to do product creation making myself only poorer than I already am, plus dragging me away further from my goals.

I am not sure how long I will overcome all this nonsense in my mind despite going through so many excellent training, coaching and mentors, but I will find my way.

After all, I want to move out of my current environment, and free myself from all liabilities either forced onto all males or those liabilities which I created myself. I will write them out..and sell the products for money to solve all my problems..

Product creation is the one and only way I have to work on. As I was writing, I realized something; obstacles are also part of the learning curve for success, without these difficulties, winning will not be a sweet victory worth celebrating.

People who succeed always celebrate, and the day will come when I pen down my books and sell them to my network of friends who needs the books which I am about to write to increase their sales, profit and business makeover.

The books will be a winner but ..Sigh..no buts..I’ll just have to slog things out, straighten my thoughts and kill all negative thoughts hindering me than doing me good at this point.

If you don’t want to be poor, seek your own course or path towards success, need a plan, feel free to ask me for free advice. If I can help in any way, do let me know.

As long as there’s a will, there’s a way.

Passion is a powerful emotion, a feeling or desire, a strong or extravagant fondness and enthusiasm for something. It is the immersed emotion and enthusiasm that allows hobbies to stay alive and keep doing it without expecting anything in return.

Passion is a interest in whatever a person does, be it a job, hobby that he/she does for a living and is so enthusiastic about it that they do not mind working over time, not getting paid for doing what they love.

An example will be to be involved in a relationship, younger teenagers these days get into boy girl relationship for various reasons, of which most are due to immaturity in mindset together with their curiousness on how it feels like to be in one.

Boys go into relationship for pride and ego, not wanting to lose out to their peers, they just want to find a easy partner and do whatever they want with sweet talking a girl into the trap in some cases.

Girls get into relationship to be loved, to seek attention from her partner to compensate for her lack of attention and focus from both her parents.

Don’t believe me? Just look back and think about it. In the passed, boy-girl relationship only starts around sixteen to eighteen years of age for the earliest if not matchmaking for marriage purpose.

Teenagers are able to follow the natural genetics order of growing more mature than look for relationship because they get the attention, care plus love and concern from their parents back than when there was it was still possible for a family to depend on a sole bread winner to support the family.

These days, thanks to competition, both parents have to work hard, less family time together, lack of love, care and concern is the crucial factor leading to boy girl relationship. Just look around the students, those born and blessed with loving parents who pay attention to their kids will not have the need nor want to even get into a relationship because their body, the genes knows that it is not yet the time for romance. Its within everybody in our blood.

Passion can help us to succeed if applied correctly. Artist for example as an occupation is a great example for people to integrate both their passion and art work together as one, so they don’t mind the low pay and lack of exposure from local markets.

Once you identified your own passion, things will get done go smoother for you even if you face obstacles, it will be resolved in a matter of time often it goes away with a new idea that pops up in your mind.

I blog and hang around forums to discuss and share tips in those medias because I enjoy what I am doing without bothered for the returns. When you start giving, you will somehow receive back something, it does not need to be in monetary forms. It can be happiness, sense of satisfaction that just gets you moving and wanting to help more people.

Blogging initially was plainly for a replacement of their personal diary which started few years back, and soon it evolved into a fashion trend and evolved into technology with people jumping in without knowing why they even want to be part of it.

From blogging to micro-blogging with the introduction of Twitter, those doing blogging are considered out-dated. I don’t really care about it, because they are following the trend, exposing their personal lives daily activities to strangers, letting them know of their actions, throwing away their privacy rights which is silly.

Mirco-blogging just to get updated, it is more of a self-expression of our own thoughts than to be silly enough to post pictures, activities that will attract predators to prey on gullible individuals brushing with law.

Passion is the enthusiasm, not a fashion fad but a fashion trend which will go on and on with the right results. Bloggers who had the right thoughts about the origins of it, used blogging to start doing their own business and succeed, of which those featured in newspapers are single young mummies and its something which people should learn from.

Don’t follow others for wanting to be in the bandwagon of crowd not to be left behind. Instead why not think about how to brand and sell yourself? How you can profit from your passion, with the correct advice and guidance, everything is possible as long as you are willing to take a step forward and learn from people who has the related skills and ability to share with you.

Starbucks is so successful today because the CEO is so passionate about offering top quality coffee.

Donald J.Trump is so successful because he enjoys doing what he likes and that is to build properties just like his dad.

Bill Gates is successful because he made his vision into a reality with the help of his mom.

Facebook founder Mark Elliot Zuckerberg started the social media site as his Harvard controversy of the project which started purely just to keep in touch with his classmates.

If you want to be the next successful individual, find coaches and mentors who will guide you along by the hand. I’ve found my mentors, have you found yours yet?

Find your passion and live your life without regrets.

Seek happiness in whatever you’re doing and not to be in misery doing what you detest most just for money.  Passion will lead you to wealth and successful with the right mentor coaching. Work will only lead you to a fraction of money.

Spot the difference identify your own passion and work towards it.

Loss is the failure to make good use of something, the failure to preserve and maintain. It is the failure to keep, get or have something; to bear the loss of robbery for failure to safe keep your money and valuables.

Every business, individual will suffer losses regardless of how big or small the loss is, but with each loss, there is always a lesson to be learned from experience so as not to allow the same mistake to happen ever again.

Lives are lost when natural disasters strikes, causing homes, farmlands, to be damaged, and people suffer both financial and physical lost of homes and wealth plus food.

Foolish lives are lost when people without proper thinking commit suicide thinking that their problems cannot be solved which is untrue. Every problem originates from the cause, the root, plug and root of the problem and it will be solved. People commit suicide when they feel the problem is beyond their control, coward acts and signs of being selfish passing on problems to family members and love ones.

Businesses suffer losses when financial crisis strikes, a chain of events beyond their control happens and everyone suffers. The only crisis prove method is to be self-sufficient, grow your own food, have your own property on your own land and depend on solar energy which is possible but it requires lots of wealth to make it possible.

If you are always incurring losses regardless of what you do, be it in relationships, getting duped, in businesses being tricked into signing agreements to give up certain rights or ownership or money, it’s time to re-look at the process, and reflect on why such losses always and never fail to crawl back up on you sticking to you like a leech sucking your health, wealth and life away from you.

If you’re clueless, get this into your head, the mind. You are the cause and effect of it, if you want to stop the same repeating experiencing similar unpleasant events, than start from inside outwards.

Stop using, talking, communicating the way you used to, ask people for advice, get a proper coach, relearn how to handle work, human relationships, handling rejections, how to view at problems, how to deal and cope with difficult problems.

There are a lot of things to learn, if you don’t and is unwilling to accept the fact that you suck at handling yourself, selling yourself, than you deserve to be duped and being abused because you show and tell others with your behaviors announcing to the people and environment around you that you’re weak in any other ways. The strong will always walk over the weak, which is why bullies are all around.

Learn to change, accept your problems, and deal with them, if you don’t, whatever happens to you before, will happen to you again if you don’t want to change. This applies to all areas, regardless of relationship, business ventures, health, mental well-being, EQ, IQ and communication.

Do you always want to be a position destined to be a loser losing everything and everyday no matter how hard you try? If that’s the way you show to others, you reap what you sowed.

Example like supermarkets, they always say trolleys go missing every month, damaged etc, that’s because they didn’t make any effort in preventing those events from happening. If you put a stop to customers wanting to leave with a  trolley full of products, it is going to help business save thousands of dollars with just hiring a few full timers to stop and prevent customers from buying more than what they can carry themselves.

By allowing customers to make their problem the business problem, than the business owner who knows the problem but doesn’t do anything to stop it deserves to suffer a loss and the loss just increases, when people recognize that the company can’t be bothered with small minor issue.

No matter what you do, do the best within your abilities to reduce your chances of incurring loss and come up with solutions to increase your profit while reduce the loss to double, triple your profits.

Stay positive regardless of whatever situation and positive results will find you soon enough.

Who do you want to be? A loser or a WINNER?

Vision is the act or power of anticipating what will or may come to be often said that entrepreneurs are visionaries. It is a vivid imaginative conception or anticipation with visions of wealth and glory.

Vision isn’t possible without dreams. Only with dreams than vision is possible. Dreams are the catalyst to react with action, application to form a vision which an entrepreneur sees.

Dreams cannot be shared it’s just all in the mind playing games only. Vision on the other hand is different. Once a vision is shared among a group of like-minded people, it creates a collective group of people working towards a common goal. A team is formed, and with more people having the same goal, its influence is greater and denser with the ability to influence more people to accept their vision and work together towards a common and greater goal of success.

Visions are the catalyst to entrepreneurship. If you can’t see yourself to be on the top sharing successes helping others who helped you, than there’s no joy in reaching the top if nobody is celebrating your success together with you as a group.

At times when the vision seems too far-fetch, than entrepreneurs will use another term, foresights, seeing what is to become in future tense and drawing up steps on how to make it a reality by implementing steps necessary and gradually to morph it into a reality with time and patience.

Vision works well with foresight, one who can looks into the future, identify the future, shape it will be the winner. Look at Bill Gates, one a college drop-out now a billionaire having his computer operating system in majority of the computers worldwide until the rise of the Apple Mac-book Steve Jobs the founder of Apple computer and forerunners of super cool information technology processes and ideas.

If visions don’t work, work on foresight instead, it is something that is much closer and has higher possibility than visions which some people might think it’s impossible.
