BullsEye Club Benefits – Part 1

There’s a Big Problem in the Personal Development Field:

Training programs in self motivation, personal development and Law of Attraction often produce pitifully little (or no) change in the students who sign up for them. Despite paying high prices and investing heavily in time, a very large majority of those students end up with disappointing (or no) results.

The most common complaints center around:

  • produces no change in personal motivation or life conditions,
  • self-doubt never goes away,
  • the methods taught are complicated or difficult,
  • they’re hard to shoehorn into a busy lifestyle,
  • are often deadly boring, and
  • when results don’t come, students may wonder if they’ve been conned.

These six complaints are very real issues. They’re red flags marking what’s wrong with most personal development programs today. They’re overly complicated, take too much time and – the worst indictment of all – they don’t carry over into real life. Translation: they don’t produce squat.

Let’s call a spade a spade. If a program fails to produce results for a majority of its students, then that program is a failure, period. Look at it this way – what if you were planning to send your son or daughter to a school, but then learned that 95 percent of the graduating class cannot demonstrate any practical skill with the subjects they studied. Would you turn your child over to them?

I wouldn’t, and I don’t think you would, either.

So the problem is that:

  • results are pitifully sparse,
  • loads of head knowledge and theory are being taught, but
  • connection to real-life application – practical skills – are missed.

In many cases, the instructors are just that, instructors. In the mad rush to “cover all the material” in the time allotted, they often just don’t have time (or maybe don’t know how) to check that you’re actually grasping all that material at the practical level.

The Solution:

Obviously, if commonly used methods produce questionable results, then it’s time to step away from those methods and invent something new that will work.

Equally obviously, teaching more knowledge and more theory are not going to get the job done. That falls under the definition of insanity – doing more of the same thing and expecting different results.

Now, there’s nothing wrong with the knowledge, the theory, and the techniques being taught. They’re useful… but not in the typical self-help context. The ironic truth is, virtually any of the techniques being taught, when used in a certain way, can produce powerful results. If you’re attending a carpentry school, and you buy top quality tools but you can’t build anything, it’s not because of the tools (and frankly, it’s not because of you, either). You’ll need to look someplace else to find what’s interfering with your productivity. (Hint: look toward the front of the classroom.)

Think about it – we see the same story in personal development and self help. If you’ve learned the techniques, theories and methods but aren’t getting change, it’s time to alter something you’re doing. Time to learn a new way of doing things.

That’s what the BullsEye Club is for. It’s about waking up and recognizing the same-old-same-old activities that never change anything, and then finding new ways to do things that actually will cause real internal change within yourself – permanent change.

If you’ve been studying motivation, goal-setting, law of attraction or personal development for more than a year, you probably already have all the theory, the knowledge and the techniques you need to change anything about yourself. Sure, you may not know everything, but you almost certainly know enough. Your only problem may be that you weren’t taught how to apply all that theory, knowledge and know-how. It’s like having a model airplane kit but no instructions. You’ll figure out part of it yourself, but at some point, you’re going to run out of guesses and realize you’re lost.

Well, it’s time to stop being lost.

The BullsEye Club

Let’s take a look at the BullsEye Club Plan. Basically, all you need is two basic things. You need to answer 6 simple questions (which lead you to the 6 BullsEye Decisions). Then you start developing the 7 BullsEye Skills. And they’re not hard skills. I’ve deliberately made all of this kindergarten simple, because frankly, it doesn’t have to be complex. It never did have to be complex.

But even though everything is simple and easy to do, it will get results for you. In fact, going through this process will turn you into a fast-starting, power-charged high-achiever.

When you come out the other side, you’ll find that you can’t remember why you used to procrastinate, you won’t need excuses, and wasting productive time won’t even enter your mind anymore. Paradoxically, you’ll find more achievement produces less stress. There’s a widespread belief that living a life of achievement somehow requires great struggle. That’s simply not true, and soon you’ll be enjoying great attainment without the “strainment.”

The BullsEye Targeting Process

In the BullsEye Club, we will concentrate on two specific areas. The first is your ability to focus. And the second is your ability to get the job done – your set of success skills.

Regarding the first area, we will sharpen your focus till you can zoom in on any target you choose with laser-like concentration. As you gain the ability to focus your mind on exactly, precisely what you intend, you literally cannot go wandering off in aimless directions or waste time.

If you were a guided missile, this ability to focus would be your heat-seeking guidance system.

Now, there’s no real mystery to focus. It’s created by making a few clear, specific decisions and then keeping those decisions firmly, unwaveringly in your awareness at all times. Most people never quite get the knack of intense focus, but don’t panic – it’s not as hard as the “experts” have led you to believe. I’ll show you this process, but minus the usual confusion and struggle.

The six decisions you will make are simple ones, and the BullsEye Targeting Process will lead you to find your own perfect answers by answering just six questions. You may already know these questions, but perhaps you’ve never had them presented to you in a single bundle before. Here they are:

The 6 Decisions You Will Make

  1. What do you want?
  2. Why? (the payoff you want to receive)
  3. How will you get it – what’s your plan?
  4. When that plan hits snags, what are your plans B and C?
  5. Who is your model – who (or what) do you want to be like?
  6. Who are your allies – who’s going to help you?

Once you answer these 6 simple questions accurately and honestly, you will be sitting on the launch pad, your engines fired up, ready to take off for the stars. Now all you need are a few easy skills to serve as the fuel that will power you forward.

The BullsEye Empowering Process

If your Focus is your heat-seeking guidance system, then this part represents your propulsion and control system. The seven skills we’ll work on in this section will ensure your mind will always stay clear and free of “static” or interference. They’ll keep your driving energy available at all times – never blocked, weak or wavering.

The 7 Skills You Will Build:

  1. Raise your vibration rate
  2. Raise your sights
  3. Learn to choose your beliefs and desires, then regulate them
  4. Eliminate indecision forever
  5. Learn to MAKE your decisions work (stick to what you want)
  6. Swear off excuses
  7. Learn to really care what happens

In the BullsEye Club I’ll teach you the most effective ways to take control of your own thoughts and feelings. As I mentioned earlier, many of the techniques you may have already learned are good. But only if you apply them in ways that harmonize with the way your inner mind works.

The inner mind has its own native language (which is quite different from the language your conscious mind uses). Once you master that language, you’ll have a direct line you can use anytime to communicate with your inner mind. You’ll also learn how to frame your instructions or requests so that you’re not asking your inner mind to do something disagreeable or abhorrent. What do I mean by that?

Consider – what if you’re walking down the street, and some stranger walks up to you, slides his sleeve up and shows you eight or ten fake Rolex watches. “Hey, wanna buy a great watch… real cheap?” If that happens, are you eager to listen?

But let’s imagine a trusted friend shows you a real Rolex and asks if you’d like to buy it because he needs some emergency cash… very inexpensive.” Are you likely to at least listen sympathetically?

The set and setting – the frame around a situation – makes all the difference. This is just as true for your inner mind as it is for your conscious mind. More specifically, you’ll learn how to choose a pleasing, congruent frame for any request and set it with consideration and respect for your inner self. This is just one of the important skills you’ll master.

You’ll also learn about presenting your requests without any hint of force, knowing with absolute conviction that your inner mind wants to say yes, is eager to say yes.

________________

This article is a preliminary overview of the BullsEye Club and what you’ll gain from it. To keep it simple, just think friction-free and stress-free. Simple. Uncomplicated.

In the next part, I’ll talk about the 6 questions and how you’ll use them to make decisions to keep you aimed straight at the BullsEye for any goal or objective you ever choose.

In the meantime, be thinking about that first question: “What is it that you want?” Everything starts there.

Cheers from warm and smiling Thailand,
Charles

    Decision #1 reminds me of Jaime’s situation in this neat little story from the late Tony De Mello:
    http://www.demello.org/article12.html

    Wake up! Wake up! ;-)

    That’s a great story. So let’s say I happen to wake up but I’m displeased with the experience of being awake, then what? Is my displeasure with the experience my true reality, or is that yet another little dream that I could wake up from? Oh it’s all so confusing.

  2. peter vajda says:

    Mark, Charles….or suppose we’re all just the dream/nightmare of someone else living on another planet…

    Yeah, I’ve always kind of liked that one. When I was in my teens and early twenties, I read science fiction in wholesale lots, and that always made a fascinating story proposition. It wasn’t until years later that I realized how easily one can use that idea as a sneaky little excuse for not taking responsibility or not trying very hard… “Aw hell, I’m just somebody else’s dream, so it doesn’t matter what I do anyway.” Of course, it wasn’t really a discrete thought. It was only a feeling down at the subliminal level that the power to decide things was somewhere else, so I didn’t even realize it was there. Took me years to see how a silly little “possibility” like that could seep in and silently neutralize the decisiveness and self reliance that I’d been trying to build.

    Still… I always enjoyed the stories.

  3. Mark McClure says:

    Charles & Peter,

    Hmmm… and what if you and the dreamer swapped stories each night? ;-)
    I like the one where the awakened dreamer knows the characters act out their own stories.

  4. peter vajda says:

    Mark, I think this is where lucid dreaming might come into play, no?

  5. Jeff Kuhn says:

    Peter, a little clarification…is lucid dreaming the state in which you realize you are and can at that point begin to control the dream?

    Yep, you got it – and it’s something I’ve never yet achieved. Come to think of it, until recently, I couldn’t imagine why anybody’d want to DO that. I mean, wasn’t it the charm of dreams that they took you to places and situations that you’d never come up with in your waking moments? Reveal things that were not apparent to your lucid mind?

    But then I figured why not… I mean, it’d be like coitus interruptus… you don’t have to use it ALL the time. So now, at night as I lay me down to sleep, I sometimes give myself suggestions to do the lucid thing. We’ll see.
