WILL I EVER LOSE WEIGHT

People Often Say Confession Is Food For The Soul.

While That May Be True, I'd Like To Add That It's Also

Good For The Body. Part Of Losing Weight Is Getting In

The Right Mindset To Do So And It All Starts With Confession

Or Admitting That You Need To Get Serious About Your Health.

Now I'm Not Talking About The 5 Pounds That You Put On

A Few Months Ago That You Don't Want To Carry Into The

Summer. I'm Talking About The 20 Or 30 That You've Tried

To Get Comfortable With For The Past Few Years. Admit,

Confess, And Make Change!! Healthy Living Starts Now!!

YOUR ENERGY VS THE NEXT MANS

Are You Satisfied With Your Life & Accomplishments?

I Am Sure We Can Answer This Question In Many Ways,

But I Simply Think That Being Satisfied In Life Is All About

Mindset. Mindset Means A Lot Of Things To A Lot Of Different

People. Mindset Is Not About "Thinking Positive" And All Of Sudden

Your Mailbox Is Full Of Cash Everyday! If You Think That Is

Possible Then You Are Cheating Yourself. Mindset In My

Experience Is About "Energy" And Your "Heart". You See....

Success Takes Energy And Lots Of It. Everything We Do In Life

Good Or Bad Takes Energy. Truthfully It's What Seperates

The Few Who Succeed To The Many Who Won't. What Kind

Of Energy Do You Carry With You?

I WILL ALWAYS SACRIFICE

The Christian Religion Teaches That Self - Sacrifice Is

A Quality We Should All Strive For. The Ultimate Gesture

From The Gospels Is That Of Turning The Other Cheek. This

Is Doubtless More Preached Than Observed, And Probably

Not So Often Even Preached. Perhaps No One Even Believes

Turning The Other Cheek Is Achievable Or Desirable. When

You Think Of Sacrifice What Does It Mean To You?

I Believe The Person Who Sacrifices Themselves To Their

Own Detriment For The Benefit Of Others Does Themselves

A Disservice. But The Person Who Sacrifice Aspects Of Their

Life For Their Principles Is Not Sacrificing Themself At All,

But Being True To Themselves.

APPRECIATE YOUR TALENTS

Being Humble Doesn't Mean You Can't Feel Good About

Yourself. Self-Esteem Is Not The Same As Pride. Both Come From

A Recognition Of Your Own Talents And Qualities, But Pride,

The Kind Of Pride That Leads Toward Arrogance, Is Rooted In

Insecurity About Yourself. Think About The Abilities You Have,

And Be Thankful For Them.

JUDGEMENT... IS IT WORTH IT



We Can Never Judge The Lives Of Others, Because

Each Person Knows Only Their Own Path And

Renunciation. It's One Thing To Feel That You Are On

The Right Path, But It's Another To Think That Yours Is

The Only Path.

PUSH YOUR LIMITS.. ESCAPE YOUR COMFORT ZONE

Being In The Comfort Zone Is The Primary Cause

For Laziness For Most People. It Is Similar To The

Gravitational Field. You Have To Do Some Real Work Against

It In Order To Break Its Barriers. It Is Happy And Comfortable

In Your Present Comfort Zone, But You Have To Expand Your

Comfort Zone To Realize What You Are Truly Capable Of.

You Must Push Your Limits To Get Into The New Levels

Of The Comfort Zone To Experience The Real Fun.

WITHOUT FAILURE THERE IS NO SUCCESS


Fear Can Interfere (Or Should That Be Inter - Fear?) With

Our Progress As Leaders, As Business Owners, As Goal

Achievers. We All Possess Some Level Of Fear, So The Good

News Is, We're Not In It Alone! The Better News Is When You

Learn To Exercise Control Over Your Fear, You Learn To Exercise

One Of Your Greatest Powers----- The Power To Choose!!

Without Failure There Is No Progress. When You Stop Failing Or

(Falling), You Stop Learning. Failure Is Important To Success

When You View It As An Opportunity To Learn.

WHAT SEPERATES GOOD FROM GREAT

Leaders Such As Churchill, Mother Teresa Of

Calcutta, Gandhi, Mandela, Napoleon, Darwin, Or

Einstein Seem To Have Special Capabilities That Set

Them Apart From The Rest Of Us. People Commonly

Regarded As Great Leaders, No Matter What Sphere Of

Activity, Whether It Be In Business, Politics, The Arts, The

Military, Academia Or Sport, Tend To Have Certain

Characteristics. After Doing Some Research I Found That

The Top 6 Are Super Important: Determination - Energy -

Capacity To Inspire Respect - Capacity To Action Solutions

To Problems - Self Confidence - Ability To Communicate

Fluently And Effectively. It Is Always Important To

Remember That Communication Isn't Just About Talking,

It Is Also About Listening. So If You Think You're Good Now,

Work On These 6 Things And Go From Good To Great!!

INFLUENCE ON OUR DECISIONS

Two Forces That Influence Our Decsions!

1. State - Moment To Moment

You've Gotta Learn How To Manage Your State Of Mind If

You're Ever Going To Manage Other's.

2. Your Blueprint - Long Term

Your Beliefs And Your Values And Your Rules Of How Life

Is Supposed To Be. If Your Blueprint Says You Can't Do

Something, You Won't Find A Way. A Faulty Blueprint Causes

You To "Should" All Over Yourself Because Circumstances Or

People Don't Match Your Blueprint. You Have To Be Able To

Affect People's State And Help Them Change Their Blueprint.

Decision Making Is The Force That Shifts Destiny, Personal Or

Professional. Most People Don't Have The Guts To Make The

Tough Decisions Because They Want To Make The Right Decision.

IS PERFECTION A REALITY

It Seems These Days That Everyone Is Seeking

Perfection. A Perfect Job, Perfect Wife/Husband,

Perfect Children Which They Feel Will Add Up To A

Perfect Life. Wrong!! The Only Person You Can Perfect

Is You. What Is Perfection Anyway? Whose Standards

Are You Using To Define Perfection? Finding And Building

Something Perfect Requires The Ability To Be Critical Of You.

I Don't Mean The Self Pity Type Of Critical; I Am Referring To

Critical THINKING Regard Yourself, Where Are You Both

Emotionally & Spiritually? Have You Worked Through The

Issues In Which You Have Failed In The Past? In Reality,

You Can Learn A Lot About Yourself And What You Need By

The Failures In Your Life. Reach For Greatness, Reach For

Positive Outcome, Reach For Perfection!

WHAT WILL YOU DECIDE

We All Have An Obstacle Or Challenge We Have Faced

Or Are About To Face That Requires Us To Decide What

Action To Take. Whether It Be An Illness, Life Changing

Decision, Addiction, A Relationship.... It Doesn't Matter.

No Matter What We Decide, We Will Decide Something.

In My Life, Like So Many Other's, I Have Had My Struggles,

Pitfalls, And Events Where Life Just Punched Me Right In The

Nuts. However, During My Lowest Of The Lows Many Would

Ask Me, "How Can You Be So Positive Right Now?" I Would Just

Know That Within Myself, To Get Through It, I Had To Stand Up

And Keep Moving Forward. Giving Up Was Not The Decision I

Was Going To Make. It Was, And Always Will Be Because......

I Decide!

LIFE'S TRIALS & TRIBULATIONS

There Are Certain Events In Our Lives That Sometimes

That Dampen Our Spirits. Trials And Tribulations Are

Part Of One's Existence. Without Them We Will Not

Become Stronger Or More Resilient. Be Confident In Your

Own Abilities. Think Of Ways To Solve Your Problems. Being

Negative About The Whole Thing Will Only Weaken Your Soul.

Build Your Self-Confidence So That Whatever Curve Ball

Life Throws At You, You Are Prepared.

BELIEVE IN SOMETHING.. BELIEVE IN YOU

Whether It Is Religion, Atheism, Politics Or Philosophy,

Beliefs Help To Mold Our Principles And Determine Who

We Are, Where We Stand In The World, And Where We

Are Going. Feel Entitled To Believe In Whatever You Like.

As Long As You Do Not Impose Your Beliefs On Others, Or

Use Them To Assess Or Judge Other People Negatively,

That's Your Right. If You Believe In Nothing You Will Fall For

Anything, And People Who Stand In The Middle Of The Road

Eventually Get Run Over!!! Waverers Also Command Little

Respect Because Others Tend To Feel Insecure Around Them.

Such People Change With The Wind And Are Percieved As

Untrustworthy. It Is Like The Desire To Please Everyone, As

Well As To Be Liked, Which Robs You Of Any Principles And

Leaves You Pleasing No One In The Process. Being Yourself

Means You Will Always Have The Courage Of Your

Convictions To Stand Out From The Crowd.

Believe In Something / Believe In You!

I HAVE MY OPPORTUNITY

Anybody Can Achieve Anything. Do You Believe That?

I Do. But There Is A Caveat That Must Be Made. Those Who

Succeed Are Those Who Walk Through The Door Of

Opportunity When It Swings Open. That We Know. So, The

Principle For Us Is: Be Ready! Are You Ready? Are Your Skills

As Sharp As They Could Be? Are They Enough So When Your

Shot Comes You Can Perform? Is Your Character Deep Enough

To Handle Success? Let's Face It, You Don't Want Big Success

If Your Character Won't Be Able To Handle It. Are You Working

Hard To Position Yourself Now? The Job To Do While Waiting For

The Door To Open Is To Develop Your Skills And Your Character,

So As To Position Yourself To Get Through That Door Before It

Closes. Your Door Will Open Someday. It Opens For Everyone.

It May Only Open Once Or It May Open Many Times. It Is Different

For Everyone And Life Just Isn't Fair That Way. Everybody Get's

A Shot. Will You Be Ready?
