“Life changes in one moment. All it takes is a decision.”
PERSPECTIVE
After many years devoted to studying people, human behavior and the mind, life coach and mentor Sampsa Lopponen has come to believe that there are as many perspectives on the world as there are grains of sand on our seashores. The world is exactly the way you choose to see it. For some it is an amazing place, full of opportunity, for others it is a constant, tiresome challenge. Between those two polar points lies every possible perspective. For some, people are to feel connected to, for others, people are to be avoided almost at all costs.
Where do you fit it the grand spectrum? What is your perspective on life? Is the mountain a wonderful challenge to be conquered, with delights untold waiting to be discovered on the other side, or is it yet another of life’s never ending series of obstacles, set up to prevent you from ever reaching your goals?
Only you can choose which to see, however having the right coach or mentor, as in any part of your life, will take you from mediocre to excellent, from average to magnificent.
BELIEFS
All people are programmed by their past experiences and environment to model their thinking and behavior. Our unconscious mind is much more powerful and reacts quicker than the conscious part of the mind and brain. We behave and act primarily on the impulses of our unconscious mind. For example, when we see a green light, we know to go without thinking. When we hear a phone ringing, we know to answer it without thinking. How about when we see a spider? Some people will freak out, some will stay in awe. Why?
The unconscious mind does not know the difference between fact and fiction. Examples. Most of us have been taught that milk is good for our health. Well, have you checked the facts or do you just believe because you have heard it so many times and others seem to believe it? We think we need it for calcium. Well, it is true that milk has calcium; however, the problem with today’s processed milk is that our body sometimes cannot even recognize it, or draw the necessary nutrients out of it. Anything your body cannot recognize, it will treat as poison, or at the minimum, discard as useless. That explains why so many milk allergies and even sicknesses are caused by milk. What about cows then? Do they drink milk to produce all the calcium in milk we drink? This is just one example of how we are programmed to think, do and behave.
How about when your boss tells you once again you didn’t reach your goals. Or your spouse informs you about all the things you are doing wrong. How do you react? And why? All your feelings whether “negative” or “positive” are very valuable, if you have the knowledge and the tools to recognize the origin of the feelings and also what they really mean. For example, being angry just because you believe you are entitled to do so may not be the most fruitful way to spend time. And what is anger anyways?
You can change your thinking and by disturbing the beliefs and thoughts you have by replacing the old useless ones with new, more empowering ones. It will certainly take some time and work, however you can literally reshape your thought life altogether. It is very powerful, and incredibly worthwhile.
INTERNAL HAPPINESS
It is a natural instinct to desire happiness. We pursue our own happiness from the first breath outside our mother’s womb. At first, of course, we merely insist our needs be met, however soon enough, we realize certain things please us in a greater way than other things, and we selfishly desire those things. No one had to teach us to desire to be happy. We were born hardwired to search out our own happiness.
Sometimes life brings challenges to our path we are ill prepared to handle. Disappointments occur, conflicts arise among those we care about, stress becomes more than we believe we can tolerate, and depression may come knocking on our heart. The people we thought we could trust often disappear when we need them the most.
The truth is, lasting happiness does not exist in external things. That is why there are so many unhappy, angry and depressed people in places like America. However, when you travel to some of the poorest nations on our planet, such as Africa, you will find villagers who have a simple joy about them, which belies their frugal living conditions. Internal happiness does not rely on external conditions. If your happiness is based on external, then you give the power and decision making of your happiness and partially your life to other people. You can make the shift today and be in charge of your own life and your own happiness!
Sampsa Lopponen believes there are no failures in life. There are only tests. Continual tests, one after another, from which you simply learn and move forward. Or you don’t learn and you stay where you are. The choice is ours. Our ability to react to these tests will determine our destiny. The truth is, it is not the external that defines our lives and us, it is the internal. It is not other people or the circumstances, it is us, me, you.

PRESSURE
Pressure can be very powerful and valuable tool for you to recognize your mental state and the condition of your heart. If you squeeze a lemon, whatever is inside will come out. If the lemon is fresh, sweet fresh juice will come out, good for use. If the lemon is rotten, bad smelling, foul liquid will pour forth, of no use to anyone. The lemon is merely the vessel, what it has to offer is decided by how it is cared for, never by who or what is squeezing it.
Life squeezes all of us, and always will. We can choose to blame the squeezer for everything happening to us, or we can seek the truth. Worth thinking about. And to take this even further, have you ever thought about how some of the world’s most desired things are developed under tremendous pressure or heat. Such as oil, gas, gold and diamonds… Allow the pressures around you to develop you further.
Life is an amazing journey. It will develop us, build us, dent us, reshape us and even beat us. What and who you become, is all up to you. Just remember, often the outcome in life is not only about the action. It is also about the reaction.
FOCUS
“As a man thinks in his heart, so he is.”
Sampsa believes there are no accidents in life. Everything that happens has a reason. Everything and anything we do or do not do, has direct consequences.
If you want to know your destiny, here is a very simple way to see it:
- Your thoughts will determine your actions
- Your actions will determine your habits
- Your habits will determine your destiny
You will always find what you focus on
“Knock and it shall be opened to you.”
We often have a lottery mentality of expecting life to somehow turn around just by waiting and doing what we have always done. In addition to a lottery mentality, we keep asking for things we feel we lack. The problem is we are asking the wrong questions. Our brain is wired to give answers, however when we are continually asking the wrong questions in life, our brain is forced to give the wrong and often even stupid answers. “Why is this happening to me,” is one of the most commonly asked wrong questions. “Why don’t things ever work out in my life,” is also asked over and over again by the whining and complaining person, who although they are not ready to change their way of living, is waiting for the results of how they are living to change.
“Ask and it shall be given to you,
If you focus on what is lacking in your life, you will always find it. Always. If you focus on the negative, you will find it. Instead, start focusing on the positive, be grateful for what you have and you will discover you have more than you thought. This is not about positive thinking. Positive thinking by itself doesn’t work. It is about the meaning you give to events in life.
Most of the successful people (money being only one small portion of being successful!) will tell you the best way to build is on success. You can start being successful right now by recognizing it is already in your life, and being grateful for it.
“Seek and you will find”
LIVING BY PRINCIPALS
You can drastically change your life’s outcome by discovering the principals for success in your life. You can set up your life so it attracts success instead of disappointment. Most people live by impulse, learned “rules”, “bad programming”, battling disappointing outcomes and so on. Not to mention fear, this by the way is the primary cause for stress. You can, with Sampsa’s wise and patient mentoring and coaching, change the principals you live by. Begin today to experience the freedom that successful living brings.

GIVING
People say money cannot make you happy. Sampsa offers a different view. To give is one of life’s greatest joys. Giving is an act promoting happiness like no other. One’s life is will not be measured by how much s/he was able to gather and collect, but by how much s/he gave. You only keep what you give.
When multi-billionaire J. P. Getty died, many people wanted to know, “How much did he leave?” My friends, the simple truth is, he left it all. Money is necessary, yes, however the greatest joy money can give is when it is given away. Share what you have, and your joy will be multiplied.
“A flower is most beautiful when it is given away.”
TRUTH AND HONESTY
As you are reading on, there is one common thread to all this. Truth and honesty. You can only change what you are willing to confront. Naturally, before you can confront anything, you have to be able to recognize it. This is one of the most powerful benefits of life coaching and mentoring. A good coach is like a mirror.
Being truthful and honest in today’s society is quite rare, too rare. People in Europe are often “rude” and do not necessarily give compliments and praise people around them when they could. People in America are often overly “nice” giving meaningless compliments with no sincerity. As this is also a matter of culture and perspective, it is always a matter of lost truth and honesty. Sacrificing truth or honesty as a bend towards culture is really sacrificing your own life and who you were meant to be. Standing strong for truth and honesty may one day help culture to return to stand with you.
“What is a life, a person, or an act worth without the truth, sincerity and honesty?”
PAIN AND PLEASURE
We all seek pleasure and try to avoid pain. However, pain is often very important and valuable. It is a signal of something. When something is painful enough, we may be pressed to make a difference and act on that change that requires action. You can learn to use pain for your own advantage. Seeing the truth is often painful, but it will push you to the direction where you can begin to experience lasting pleasure.
LOVE vs. FEAR
Two main “polarities” in life are love and fear. If we breakdown human thoughts, behavior patterns and beliefs, overall they can be labeled either love based or fear based. These two, love and fear, distract each other. Love will cast away fear, and fear blocks out true love and passion. For example, if you have a fear of public speaking, you may ask yourself, how judgmental are you of others speaking? This may not always be the case, but it very often is. You perceive your outcome such as you see others as they perform. Fear is often bringing your past to your present. Often fear is based completely on non-reality. There is of course good fear as well, and it can be a major force to push you forward. It is very important to recognize the type of fear you experience, and in what situation.
Is your life being controlled by love or fear?
“Perfect love casts away all fear.”
GOD
Finally, God. Sampsa Lopponen believes in God and the only way to God is through Jesus Christ. Sampsa has devoted his life to be of service to God and His will in Sampsa’s life.
Can you be successful and happy without God? To a certain degree, yes. Certain principals in life work whether you believe in God or not. After all, God created and “coded” the world with its’ laws in it. If you jump off the roof, you will fall whether you believe in the law of gravity God created or not. If you plant carrot seeds, you will reap carrots when the harvest is ready. You can be successful, healthy and even happy. However, Sampsa believes God has the power to overwrite events and even laws as He chooses. Our supernatural is still God’s natural. God’s “supernatural” begins where our natural ends.
If you are trying to fill the void inside of you wondering what is the answer to the empty longing feeling, here’s something to think about. God has put a basic need and desire for their Creator in all humans. Examine your heart and seek the truth. If you don’t believe in God and you accomplish everything you ever dreamed of, you are still left with the question. What will happen after the life here on the earth will be over?
God is love. God is the never-ending source. God is everything. There is no limit as to what you can withdraw. The ultimate source does not care how much you withdraw, like the atmosphere doesn’t care whether you breathe oxygen 10 times per minute or 100 times per minute. It all returns to the source anyways. So why not believe in such God, who can provide all you ever desired in life. (The original meaning of desire is “of the Father”.) He will guide you to do everything you were born to do. It is all in you already, but perhaps you are not able to see it without God. All the power you need is already in the outlet. You just have to plug in. Turn on the lights, turn on the power!
PROCRASTINATION
“Procrastination is the art of keeping up with yesterday.”
Life changes in one moment. All it takes is a decision. Once you decide and start moving, the emotion follows your motion. You will start feeling good about it. If you sit and relax, you will stay there. Why? It is called completion. What is moving wants to continue moving, and what is not moving doesn’t want to move at all. That is how we people behave. So keep moving!
“Procrastination is the theft of time.”

“I believe in luck. Harder I work, more I have of it.”
Those competing in the world of sports have realized the value of coaching long time ago. Competitors in sports have had coaches for decades. To help set goals, evaluate the strengths and weaknesses, create a roadmap and get to work. It is as simple as that. Nowadays people are beginning to see the wisdom of coaching and mentoring in their everyday life challenges, also.
Living in today’s world and society is not easy, therefore embrace coaching as a necessary tool. Feel good, start seeing and envisioning the results and the outcome. Get excited about life! You may feel you have lost your chance to make it and reach the goals you once had. You may have wasted time and opportunities in life. The beautiful thing in life is that after every wasted, difficult and disappointing day, there is a new one waiting. Forget plan B. Let’s create a new plan A! It doesn’t matter where you are now, what matters is where you end up.
Finally, a good life coach or mentor is not a person who knows everything. In fact, people with such claims should be avoided by all means possible. A good coach and mentor is a person, who will “mirror” your life back to you in a language you understand, draw images you can comprehend and help you to discover who you are, why you were born and what is the process needed to get you where you want to be. And to help you to get there! One of the primary tasks for a coach and mentor is discovery, much more than teaching. Education is part of the process, but your life is all about you isn’t it? Even the most intellectual lecture about theories which have nothing to do with your life are not worth much to you.
Make the decision today, that tomorrow will not be the same as yesterday, and next month will be far beyond what last month was.
