How To Take Out Your Trash

"What we achieve inwardly will change our outward
reality."

- Plutarch, Greek historian and philosopher

Like I said yesterday I believe by the grace of God
our lives and our achievements are built from the
inside-out using constructive thoughts, feelings,
beliefs, and inspired action. We are co-creators.

But we live in a world that's often negative, and have
picked up a lot of junk along the way. Some of it our
own doing, some not. Some we're aware of, but much
more socked away in our subconscious where it
affects what we do automatically. Too much of the
time that means were building up results we really
don't want.

Question is how do we change and become the kind
of builders we want to be? In shooting how do we
become master of the free throw, for instance? One
thing's for sure - the negative stuff doesn't help one
bit.

One way I mentioned yesterday to jetison the
mental riff raff is first to become aware of it, and
then make a conscious effort to drop it. You don't
want to reason with it, analyze it, or do battle
against it. Just let it go.

That's not always enough though. Sometimes
stronger measures are needed.

I have a friend Mike who handles it this way:

"Everytime I catch myself thinking a negative
thought or someone drops bad news in my lap I
immediately say to myself, 'Thanks for sharing
that. CANCEL. CANCEL. CANCEL. And I
smile. Always I smile.""

Or I know of another gent who wore a big thick
rubberband on his wrist for a month. Everytime
he caught himself being negative toward others
or more often toward himself, he'd pull that band
out to about 10 inches and let it go against his
wrist. Hard enough to draw a welt. I think that's
called aversion therapy, but call it what you will it
gets the job done.

Coach Stan Kellner is also a master at helping you
overcome the negativity that comes out in learning
to become a skilled shooter. See for yourself what
Stan calls the secret of the Cybernetic Loop in his
Ultimate Shooting Method DVD.

Shoot For the Stars,

Dean - The Dean of Shooting Hoops

P.S. I'm leaving in a minute to go hear Dick Vitale
speak on campus at the University of Florida, and
Midnight Madness is tomorrow night for all the
college teams. I'm getting psyched.

I hope you'll get fired up too and shoot for your
hoops dreams with all your heart this season. Write
and let me know how your shooting is going.

Stan Kellner is also fired up and it shows in his book,
his CD, and his shooting DVD. Grab yourself some

Life Is An Erector Set

I'm sure you remember some of the toys of your
youth. Some of my favorites were the "Erector"
sets. I had the 1958 "Amusement Park Set" with
hundreds of metal wheels, levers, channels, nuts,
bolts, spacers, etc. I think it even had a couple of
motors. I just looked it up and if I'd saved mine
intact it would be worth $1500 today.

I also had old-fashioned "Alphabet Blocks" when I
was younger, and "Lincoln Logs" later. Since then
the world has given us "Legos", "Geomax", "K'Nex"
and dozens more.

And girls have their dollhouses, Barbies, outfits,
paperdolls, tea sets, etc. They are more into
building people, relationships, and lives, but let's
face it. We all like to build. It's part of our makeup.

"To learn how to make every thought and action
constructive is to master the secret of all
attainment."

Wallace D. Wattles (1860 - 1911)

Wally Wattles was one of the pioneering success
writers in America and while he never played
basketball I think he can still help us all become
better shooters.

Any achievement you ever have will start with a
thought, be nourished by enpowered ideas, feelings,
beliefs, and actions. The key is to learn how to focus
your mental and physical faculties so they both can
contribute toward goals and dreams you have.

If a thought, or feeling, or belief, or action doesn't
help build toward what you're trying to accomplish
though common sense says you should ditch it at
the first opportunity.

As a shooter you should seek to rid yourself of any
thoughts and actions that don't contribute to great
shooting. Start paying attention and soon you will
notice distractive, destructive, hateful, critical,
judgemental, negative thoughts even while you are
practicing and playing. Try letting go of those next
time, and see what a big difference a clear, positive
mind makes.

And you can let Coach Stan Kellner show you how to
build a whole new vocabulary of shooting success.
Learn dozens of powerful thoughts that when
nourished will make you a superstar shooter.

It's time to start building your shooting future today

The Hidden Benefits of Shooting Hoops

I wonder if you realize what you've gotten yourself
into wanting to be a great shooter? It's actually
possible to set yourself up for life.

When you visualize yourself putting the ball in the
hole you are expanding your self-image to new
levels. You are focusing on what you want, and
letting the inner image change. Then the doing
becomes easier.

When you see yourself as a shooter your life can
change.

You will have learned a ton about desire, belief,
confidence, your mind, goals, perserverance, and
I could go on and on. What you learn on the court
you can apply to most anything you do in life, and
come out a winner. That is priceless.

The processes you learn can also make you more
successful in love, relationships, money, career,
spirituality, education, research, business - every
good thing you want.

For instance I'm sure you've heard the phrase 'time
is money'. And that's true up to a point, but really
isn't it ideas that make money. Creativity is a mental
skill, and as you sharpen your mind on the court, and
apply those same skills to the money game you will
have a much brighter future.

The best, most comprehensive mental program I've
ever seen for basketball comes from Coach Stan
Kellner. I was raving about the book yesterday, and
there is a wealth of information there.

It may be the best buy I've ever seen. It sells for $15,
and there are hundreds of powerful ideas to act on.

The same holds for his 'How To Be a Prime-Time
Shooting Machine' DVD. There's nothing else like it
so I've made it easy for you to order it today at:

P.S. My business and life coach Matt Furey has
the ultimate winners attitude, and he teaches it
through exercise, conditioning, and mental power
programs.

He's also the head honcho at the Psycho-Cybernetics
Foundation where he carries on Dr. Maxwell Maltz'
vision for self-image building. You would do well to
visit Matt's sites and absorb as much as possible from
him. His daily emails are an education in themselves.
Now is the time. Here are the places:
