Live Longer Being an Optimistic Realist Mar 21, 2023

Live Longer Being an Optimistic Realist

Are you an "Optimist" or a "Realist" who is optimistic?

It makes a difference.

Studies have shown that Optimists don't live as long and Optimistic Realists.

Why?

Being blindly optimistic today can lead to massive disappointment and stress. There is too much noise in the world trying to bring you down.

When you choose to be an optimistic Realist, you look at the world with a much clearer lens. Occasionally you will be surprised by an outcome. You will rarely be disappointed.

I think it's better to be surprised occasionally than constantly worried. How about you?

Are You Missing Your Future? Mar 17, 2023

Are You Missing Your Future?

Have you noticed how everybody is running so fast these days?

Are they living in the moment? Are they dwelling on the past? Are they dreaming of the future - and waiting for it to arrive?

Any human would experience a combination of all three every day. That's normal as long as it doesn't get in the way of living.

A decade and a half ago, my first wife passed away from Cancer. She was 46 and too young to die. I was too young to be a widower. My children are too young to lose their Mom.

While challenging, our family had an unconventional outlook on life - and death. Our goal was to make it the best death ever. Sadly, we achieved that goal. It was the strangest accomplishment any of us had ever experienced.

After she passed, my daughter, Carlyn, wrote a poem that resonates to this day -

Soon we'll all find our way.

Soon we'll know what.

Makes us who we are.

Soon we'll wake up.

Today, we can appreciate.

Soon we'll know that.

Tomorrow we'll be better.

Soon we'll trust that everything's okay.

That the past is gone.

Can't hold us back.

Soon we'll smile about today.

Soon will come too soon.

Don't let it slip away.

Time keeps on slipping, slipping, slipping into the future. Don't let it slip away.

Billionaire Habits You Can Steal Mar 16, 2023

Billionaire Habits You Can Steal

Whatever you get in life is a result of your daily habits. What is a habit?

According to the dictionary, it is a settled or regular tendency or practice. It is also, especially, one that is hard to give up.

Good habits or bad - they are hard to give up. If that's the case, you may as well choose good habits.

In a survey of 233 self-made millionaires, here's what they did that lower-income earners didn't -

Get up early, read a LOT, and spend 15 - 30 minutes each day on focused thinking.

Good habits, done daily, create success.

Make exercise a priority, spend time with people that inspire them, and pursue their own goals.

Settled habits create settled success.

Get enough sleep, have multiple incomes, and avoid time-wasters.

If you're not getting the desired results, there is a high likelihood that you're not giving up your current habits.

Until you establish new habits, little will change. When you do, everything will change.

How Success Follows Intention Mar 15, 2023

How Success Follows Intention

An epidemic infecting dreamers worldwide is nothing more than a dream buster.

Living a happy life, enjoying amazing relationships, and making more money? It seems that everyone has intention.

Some intentions are good. Some intentions are bad. In any case, moving from having intentions to succeed requires two steps:

1) Intention becomes actionable when you DECIDE to follow through on your intention. If not, nothing will happen. When you do, move on to the next step.

2) Once you’ve DECIDED to follow through on your intention, ACTION is required. What kind? Actions that form a direct path to your anticipated outcome.

Become the kind of person that knows what you want, decides to do it, and follows through until you get it. That’s how you become unstoppable!

How to Focus and Achieve Your Goals Mar 14, 2023

How to Focus and Achieve Your Goals

I was speaking with a young man who was doing something familiar. He was living in two realities:

1) He had finished school; one reality was pursuing his dream career.

2) While he worked toward his dream, he earned a job certification to pay the bills.

During our conversation, he said something that got my attention. “I’m hoping I can get a good job supporting my dream.”

My ears perked up. Years of Coaching allow me to hear de-focused and dream-erasing thoughts loud and clear.

Yes, everybody needs to pay their bills. However, what you focus on is what you get.

When the certainty of earning income becomes your focus, dreams disappear. What you focus on is what you get.

Most folks don’t notice their dreams are gone for twenty years. What you focus on is what you get.

Focus your mind and actions on turning your dreams into reality. Whatever you do to earn a living falls into the category of necessary and temporary.

How to Change Your Life in 30 Days or Less Mar 13, 2023

How to Change Your Life in 30 Days or Less

Only a silly person thinks you can change everything about your life in 30 days - right?

Call me silly, but everything I've ever done was rooted in a 30-day sprint - even if I didn’t know it.

Here's how you do it:

1) Set what Napoleon Hill calls a Major Definite Purpose or a Big Ass Goal.

2) Stop negative self-talk. Others may throw sticks and stones; don't throw them at yourself.

3) List all the reasons you CAN be successful. Make it a long list.

4) Decide that you will do whatever it takes to reach your goal. For the next 30 days, nothing will stop you.

The impossible becomes possible when you are focused, willing to take massive imperfect action, and won't take no for an answer.

By the way…

When you seek or follow your purpose in life, your life will become one big non-stop happiness sprint.

Permission is Not Required For Happiness Mar 10, 2023

Permission is Not Required For Happiness

You do not need permission to live life according to your terms.

Researching your direction and path is smart. It’s okay to ask for advice and guidance. It’s even okay to persuade others to take the journey with you.

You don’t need permission to be yourself and live your life.

You don’t need a big storyline.

You don’t need approval from anyone else.

You can start whenever you choose.

Here’s a secret that will help you adjust your mindset -

Most folks don’t care about you. They’re too busy thinking about themselves. If that’s the case, it sure seems silly to ask for permission - right?
