    Blog #232 – The Art of Finishing

    Everything has a beginning, middle, and end.

    Bring awareness and note if you are at the beginning of the end. Or in the case of the market it looks like we are at the beginning of a recession. If we are at the beginning then what does the middle and end look like.

    The way you see something will also affect your actions. If you treat a relationship like its the beginning always then you will still do the things that attracted the other person to you in the first place.

    The ending is a work of art. Finish the way you start and know when something is finished. If you know your job is finished then go out with a bang.

    Blog #225 – A Reward Greater than Money!

    You get paid in direct proportion to the difficulty of problems you solve.

    Elon Musk

    What problem are you solving?

    If you truly care and help people then your reward will be greater than money. You will be rewarded with love, kindness, respect and gratitude.

    People will share only what has an impact on them. The biggest compliment a person can get is when they share your work.

    A great way to make your life better is to share your experience and feelings with others.

    Blog #204 – The Struggle is Guaranteed

    No matter what life is going to have ups and downs. There will be pains and pleasures.

    All of the pain is a given.

    The success and pleasures are up to you. These feelings are not given. You have to go out and take these. You have to make these happen. This is what it means to live a life with no regrets. Even if things do not work out you want to be able to say you gave it all you got. You went after your dreams. You didn’t make excuses.

    You might as well fail doing something you love.

    Blog #203 – What your emotions are telling you.

    What is the good in this?

    If you are experiencing something painful then what can be good about it?

    Everyday we follow the same mental patterns. We think the same thing and have the same feelings. People have tenancies to be angry, upset, frustrated, stressed, depressed. Some people have tendencies to be happy, fulfilled, excited, and loving.

    We must recognize what are tendencies are and if we don’t like them then change them.

    I am committed to being happy! I figure out what makes me feel good and do that. I figure out what makes me angry or bored and avoid that. Do more good and less evil!

    Blog #194 – Eliminate to Expand

    Eliminate the unnecessary tasks in your life.

    Remember the Pareto Principle. The Pareto Principle state that 80% of the results come from 20% of your actions.

    Focus on the 20% of actions that get you this giant number of results. What are the things you are doing that is really moving the needle? This is where you should be focusing more of your time.

    Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job. If you work hard on your job you can make a living, but if you work hard on yourself you’ll make a fortune.

    Jim Rohn

    Do the 20% of actions that make you the happiest. Do the 20% of actions that make you the wealthiest. Do the 20% of actions that make you the healthiest. Do the 20% of actions that bring the most love. Then you have 20% left over to do what ever you want.

    Blog #187 – Integrate your Lifestyle

    To have the life you want you must integrate your lifestyle with all the things that you want out of life.

    Your lifestyle must support your growth in all areas of life you want to grow in. You also must eliminate the things you are doing that does not support your growth.

    If you work in an office and know you can’t leave the office then how can you integrate things in the environment you are in? For example to integrate health in an office environment you can sit on a pilates ball, take breaks, go for walks and eat a healthy lunch.

    An integrated lifestyle is a balanced lifestyle where all actions support other actions. There is a give and take but all actions should give. To know what to do you need to know what is important to you.

    The opposite of an integrated lifestyle is a compartmentalized lifestyle. This is where nothing is related and everything is independent.

    Blog #181 – Searching To Be Loved

    I have a strong desire to be loved. I extend myself and go out of my way to do things for people so they will love me. I help strangers. I help family. I help friends. I want to feel significant in this world. I want to be outstanding. I treat others like I want to be treated. If I was a business then I would have the best customer service in the world.

    I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

    Maya Angelou

    How do you think people feel about you?

    This is your reputation. This is your brand. This feeling is how you get people to spread the word on what you are doing.

    Be so good that if people don’t share your services they will feel bad.

    Blog #173 – Unconditional LOVE

    Who do you show unconditional love to?

    Who shows unconditional love to you?

    These are the real people in your life. The conversations with these people are unlike any other that you would have. The thing is people show love in many different ways. Some people show love by giving people gifts. Some people show love by showering people with compliments. Some people show love by worrying endlessly about the other person. Some people show love by the way the touch the other person. Some people show love by being brutaly honest with people. Some of these ways to show love can be misconstrued by the other person. This is misunderstood because we often forget the first step. The first step is to let them know how much we care about them. If we are on the receiving end of this tough love then we must assume how much the other person cares.

    People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.
