Didn't See It Coming...

Sometimes it just sneaks up on you, doesn't it? You don't even see it coming. Suddenly and without warning, you're surrounded by the best friends you've ever known. You're waking up in the mornings just "dying" to get into the day. There's a lightness in your step and a gleam in your eye. Your thinking is new, your laughter frequent, and you're drawn to tears whenever you hear happy tales. You're on a roll, so it's not like you're thinking about it, but if you were to think about it, you wouldn't know what's gotten into you, nor would you recall just when. You'd only shake your head whenever you thought of how quickly everything can change...

Just something to remember the next time you don't see something coming

What? This is not your life? Then you need to change...

Inspiration

Just wanted to write a little inspiration...

Not 72 hours ago I arrived home safe and sound from another International Training event.

Before I get into how it went, I want you, the reader, to fully understand what this means...

I am not (just) talking about how this event was from a training standpoint...

I want you to understand how these events truly change your life, both personally and professionally !!!

You see, of course when you go to "any" training event, you expect, well, to be trained - And we were...

What you don't realize, and what still blows my mind, is the ever-lasting impression I feel after attending one of these events.

The feeling is entirely because of the inspirational, positive-minded people, trainers and speakers you're around for a full 72 hours...

Imagine...Absolutely zero negativity. Zero whining and complaining. Zero b!tching. Zero comparisons. Zero egos. Zero pointing fingers etc.

Instead, you surround yourself with 100% support, motivation and success !!!

Now, is that not what you and the people you know want outta life?

Or, are you simply happy go lucky living in your (wake up, drive in rush hour to work, start work, get told when you can have a coffee break, work, get told when and how long you can have lunch for, work again, enjoy another 15 minute coffee break, back to work, drive home in rush hour traffic, have a half-assed dinner, help the kids with homework, maybe do something small for yourself, go to sleep and repeat 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year, for the next 40- 50 years) life ???

Wow...That made me freaking exhausted just typing it?

Who on earth likes that schedule? Who on earth looks forward to that schedule? Who on earth wants to spend 80,000 to 100,000 hours of their life following that sh!tty routine?

For what? A 3-4% raise at the end of each year while inflation goes up more than that and your boss works less than you do and completely controls your destiny?

What does that tell our children? Sure, we were taught to go to school, to get " a great education" to that we could "get a great job" and do what...

..."wake up, drive in rush hour to work, start work, get told when you can have a coffee break, work, get told when and for how long you can have lunch for, work, enjoy another 15 minute coffee break, back to work, drive home in rush hour traffic, have a rushed dinner, help the kids with homework, maybe do something small for yourself, go to sleep and repeat 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year, for the next 40- 50 years..."

WOW...What are we teaching our children these days?

For heavens sake, Change the system...Work for yourself...Sign on for a Tried-Tested-And-True Business/Industry that will give you the life you deserve...And more importantly personally show your kids that you are a leader and are interested in truly teaching them right from wrong !!!

I am sure I've offended some in this little written blog...Either way...Reach out...I'd love to hear from you...

Create A Sense Of Urgency

It is no secret that successful leaders have a sense of urgency about achieving their vision.

Urgency generates increased pace.

Increased pace allows for a more productive sorting process.

A more productive sorting process brings forth quicker results.

Quick results creates momentum.

Momentum creates leverage.

Leverage is the key to Life Without Boundaries.
