A few years ago I read an article about how we interact with the world. It used an analogy of a Tugboat vs a Lighthouse. A few weeks ago I saw that same message again, so I thought I would share it with you today. You see we can choose how we interact with the world, and we can choose how we communicate with people around us. Especially in today’s world, it seems many of us are trying to be “heard”. We are all trying to share a message with people around us that we feel might resonate with them and help create meaningful change in their lives. Maybe you’ve experienced this in your life. Because of all the noise and clutter in the world today, it’s very difficult to actually be “heard”. Its even more difficult to have people pay attention with you feel you might be able to help them. You may have kids or family or friends that you are trying to help create change. You may be an entrepreneur who is following your passion and are trying to bring your product to market. Or maybe you are simply someone who cares deeply for the people around you and want to help them make changes in their lives… If you fall into any of those scenarios, I’m sure you have also experienced the frustration and disappointment of not feeling like your message is being received. Or maybe you simply cannot understand why people you interact with are not accepting the message or influence you are genuine trying to help them with. I’ve had this happen in my life. I’ve spent a lot of my life running around trying to help others, or influence others in a positive way only to feel anxious, stressed or even alone in my efforts to create something meaningful. Maybe you’ve felt the same… Well there is an analogy that compares this type of activity to a Tugboat and a Lighthouse. The Tugboat and the Lighthouse have very much the same mission. Each of them are put in place to help save Boat and guide them into the harbor safely. The Tugboat will go out and rescue other boats. It will expend a great amount of energy pushing and pulling boats that are stranded and helping them get into shore. The tugboat provides an amazing service and is responsible for helping many boats in distress. However the tugboat needs to apply pressure and energy to basically force these “stranded” boats into safe harbor. The Lighthouse, on the other hand, stands firmly at the shore. It shines it light as a message to the passing boats in order to help them avoid the rocks and dangerous pitfalls that they may otherwise end up crashing and sinking on. The lighthouse does not need to go out and force the boats to do anything. It simply focuses on shining its light and allows the boats in the distance to choose whether or not they will follow its light and safely make it ashore. This message really impacted me personally, and I think it can help share a very powerful message with you as well. Whether you are focused on creating better relationships, sharing your message or products with the world, or simply becoming a better version of yourself. It might be helpful for you to practice the lessons taught in this example. Learn to be more of a lighthouse to the world. Learn to share your value and message with others, but allow others to choose whether they will accept or benefit from what you have to offer. Nothing obtained through force, coercion or even pressure will ever last, and most times it will not grow and develop into something strong unless it does it on its own. In life, I have often felt that…and maybe you’ve heard this phrase…”if it's going to be, it’s up to me”. But, I’ve learned that that doesn’t mean that you need to force things to happen in your life. Yes, work hard, take massive action, and pursue your dreams and goals. But, also learn to leave space for attraction, and learn to be at peace with the results in your life when they don’t turn out exactly as you intended them to turn out. This requires you to develop a few key characteristics that a partner of mine, Robert Stuberg, always reminds me of… You need to learn to focus on and develop:

So many of us are caught up in the memories, experiences and stories of the past. We seem to believe that the past defines who we are today. It does not. In fact, it may be creating limiting beliefs that are holding you back from your greatness.
Today I want to talk with you about how to move forward and stop dwelling on the past. Learn to empower yourself by "dropping" the Story you are telling yourself and learn to focus on the only thing that exists...the PRESENT.
Thanks for listening.

Have you ever felt Overwhelmed with your day? Have you ever felt like your day just got away from you? Have you ever felt like you have no idea where you day went… …or how time could pass so quickly? Most importantly, do you ever feel like all this time passed and you didn't really accomplish your goals and things that were most important? We have all felt that way. It's part of process of navigating this busy, fast paced life. But, today I want to talk to you about how to become more productive and intentional with your time. When I consult or mentor companies and individuals, one of the biggest obstacles holding people back is their time management…admittedly… So, today let's talk about this, because if you are just going through life and continue the pattern of looking back wondering where the time went…you will be filled with regret and you will not be success with your goals, dreams and desires. First and most importantly, you need to realize and believe that your TIME is your greatest ASSET. its the great equalizer…(think about it) we all receive the same amount… whether you believe it or not, you CAN control where you spend your time… you can waste it, spend it, or let it slip by…. or, you can invest it in things that will create value and reward for you you can invest your time to build relationships, create an amazing business, increase your active and passive income, dedicate it or service or philanthropy…and so much more. But…until you realize, accept and decide that it has value, you will never truly value it… …and therefore, you will never spend it wisely. You must learn to Budget your time just like any other Asset. You’ve heard me say before, that what you focus on grow. What you focus on you attract. When you do not value your time, it gets wasted, spent…it disappears and you can seem to figure out where it went…just like your paycheck or your money you’ve been slow to track and budget... haha, but that is another conversation for another day… 🙂 For now let's do this…Accept that your time is your most valued asset and treat it accordingly. Second, you need to be intentional with your time. You need to make specific and intentional decisions with when, where and on what you will spend your time. You need to protect your time like its your last few dollars in your bank account. How are you going to spend that time each day to create a return for YOUR LIFE?? Now lets pause for a quick minute, because I know what some of you are thinking… You’re gonna say, "George, easy for you to say because you have your own business and get to make your own schedule.”…and this is true. But it was not always this way. You see people think that, but the truth is that my FREE TIME and FLEXIBLE TIME is a “RESULT” of working hard, managing time, and creating a return. Sometimes the best return you can get on you time is “more time”. This comes from working hard but more importantly it comes from being intentional with your time. You cannot just spend your time haphazardly every day responding to the whims of life and think you are going to free yourself up. Life is a trap that burries you in the mediocrity of an average existence. You have to break out of the pattern you are in. You have to break out of the thinking pattern that you “Dont have any time” because it simply isn’t true. You can totally change things about your day. You have 24 hours each day and you probably sleep a 1/3 of that time anyway. Tony Robbins has been quoted as saying that everything in life and productivity comes down to two things….1)resources (like time and money) and 2)resourcefulness (your ability to desire change). And ultimately, it all boils down to resourcesfullness, because if you become resourceful you will find the time and find the money. I believe that. Besides, what have you go to lose. It’s time to start making some changes and getting your time back and starting to live you BEST LIFE, right?… So let me give you some tips on how to create more productivity and time in your day. You may have heard a few of these before but I want you to really assess your life and pick a few of these things you can commit to changing starting right now…
My Morning Thoughts: i had a powerful thought while working out today i was listening to a david goggins video goggins is literally the toughest guy I’ve ever heard of …retired navy seal…only member of US Armed forces to complete …Seal Training…US Army Ranger School…Air Force Tactical Controller Training …ultra marathons….best selling author…on and on and on… I was listening to get a little more motivation and a kick in the butt… …been sleeping in a bit too much lately…benefits and downsides to being an entrepreneur :) I’ve learned over the years we all have cycles of motivation in our life…ups and downs times when you need motivation times when you need “something more” we cycle through life our liv with different moods, circumstances, careers… the key is to recognize exactly where you are right now and what you need... cause there is a distinct different in types of fuel from PD and fuel from Motivation so, where are you right now? what do you need to get you moving right now? let’s discuss this and clarify a couple things when it comes to fuel… we ALL need different types of fuel at different stages of our life and biz… and there is a difference between motivation, drive and purpose…but, we need all 3 but its also IMPORTANT to know the difference and when you need each type… it’s sorta like a rocket…3 stages of fuel to create lift off -explain...initial, boost, cruising… So lets start with Motivation... 1-Motivation- 1st type of fuel that usually will come from "Outside You" Goggins calls this the kindling…1 hour burn cause it doesnt last long but gets you started comes from outside you most of the time but all you need is a spark…music, video, coach, friend, external validation what motivates you the best? examples Now a word of CAUTION…stop trying change your entire life or business with motivation too many of us try to reinvent ourselves with constant motivation thats not the point of motivation…its to start the fire…its just to create a spark… Thats why you sometimes hear thought leaders say motivation is CRAP its not sustainable….its short term…BUT it does serve a purpose …the purpose is to get you unstuck…to get you moving…to break your patterns…got it? but remember, it wont last and it will go away and leave you feeling empty and tired thats why you need to use that motivation (that Kindling) to fuel a much bigger log… …a log that is sustainable…a fuel that creates long term results... …which brings us to the topic of developing Your DRIVE... 2-Drive- 2nd type of fuel that usually comes from "Inside You" Goggins calls this the big log…10,000 hour burn this is the log you cannot start with or you would choke out the fire... this is the fuel that takes your motivation and turns it into obsession this is where you need to go from outside to inside yourself to find your “Drive” you need the spark to light the BIG log, but then you need to nurture ur Drive… …nurture and big a strong Desire and Commitment to Drive your life & biz forward. this is what will help you create more consistent energy each day this is what will help you keep your MIND in check on a constant basis this is what will keep you moving forward when your motivation goes away to do this you need to create a vision bigger than your ability to feel comfortable this DRIVE and this OBSESSION needs to come from outside your comfort zone this is where your VISION and DREAMS come into play One of my mentors would say, When the Dream is Big Enough the Facts don't count. if you can visualize and manifest your life, this is where your DRIVE starts to take you places this is where your faith and endurance get tested, but where your biggest successes come ..this is where you start living the life you were truly meant to live... so, get super clear on what you want your life to be like… what do you want your life to be like? what do you want your relationships, finances, health, fitness, nutrition, lifestyle to be like? get specific…get detailed…get CLEAR stop waiting till you have a plan to develop the end goal stop waiting till you can see the end of your journey to decide what the end will look like and REMEMBER, you dont need to be totally clear on the path to start moving forward you just need to be decisive and say yes and figure it out…but develop your VISION then…. become obsessed with that life…with that goal…with that vision what does obsessed mean?…it means focus on it every day…prioritize it be consistent…be relentless…be DRIVEN….DEVELOP YOUR “DRIVE” ACT IN SPITE OF YOUR MOOD that 10,000 hour log will burn and burn…and consistency will ultimately make it a Habit and Habits take you much further than the motivation alone… Habits will take over when motivation fades away…you do this by... developing daily rituals that you Decide and Commit to doing and over time they will Drive you and you WILL become Driven now talking about Motivation & Drive would not be complete without a discussion about… PURPOSE…I’ve seen too many people get far in their life and business only to question life this leads us to the topic of Purpose... 3-Purpose- 3rd type of fuel that comes from focus on Others ya see, you must have a Purpose to serving others or you will not find true fulfillment Happiness, Fulfillment and true success will only come when you feel you are helping mankind …this is why when i talk about UT we say in the service of others With this type of fuel you will find the ability to create fulfillment which fuels your soul and ultimately will create true and lasting happiness levels with this type of fuel you will feed your motivation, your drive and best of all results in your life… i encourage you to define your talents and then find the best way to serve others with them… …put a different way, you can find the needs in the market place that need to be met and meet them Purpose will give you something to lose yourself in…its something you can truly devote your life to… …its something that other people will be inspired to to assist you with and devote their time and energy to …its something that you will lose track of time when you are doing it... so what does all this discussion about fuel and purpose mean to you… …only you can determine where you are in your life and what you need... ..ask yourself where you are in this stage of your life… do you need motivation? do you need more drive and obsession? do you need purpose? are you even thinking about these things or are you on Autopilot…if so, STOP… …get clear on what you need and what you are going to do TODAY to fuel yourself find a way to wrap Motivation, Drive, Purpose and Desire all together and keep them all in check …be aware…that is the real key …be relentless…be obsessed…be great Do Hard Stuff every single day… Challenge Yourself daily… Don’t Give up… Don’t Settle… In closing today…a good friend of mine Bill Danko (who wrote Millionaire Next door) would say… You know what’s better than being a Millionaire…Being a Happy Millionaire… …and he went on to write a second book called “Richer than a Millionaire” which i highly recommend Stephen Covey would say...Begin with the end in Mind….I think is good advice... …start with Purpose and back it into Drive and then feed it with the spark of Motivation… I think i you will do this, you will find much more sustained progress toward your goals…. you will be like the rocket that pushes through the atmosphere with motivation… then pushing into the space of your dreams with drive and consistency… then you will accomplish Amazing things with Purpose and Passion. You are unbelievable…You are talented…You are Unique Its never too late to Start Living the Life You were Meant to Live…Start today. Thanks for listening George Wright III PS- Please share this message with anyone you know…it would mean a lot to me personally
What is Happiness? Late last night I was listening to an interesting audio compilation from Earl Nightingale. The title was How to be Happy “before" Success… Earl Nightingale, for those of you new to personal development, was a well known personal development thought leader recognized for his Gold Record, The Strangest Secret amount other things. I enjoyed all the amazing insights that he shared, but ultimately there were a few key points I thought it might be nice to highlight for you today. But first, here is a couple of his well know quotes on happiness… "Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway." "Success (Happiness) is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.” “Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.” Earl, in his audio, asked the question…Would you like to know how to be Happy? He said so many people are chasing a destination, and yet happiness is within your reach every single day. Ultimately we are truly seeking positive emotions in life and emotions are simply a state of being that you can control. He went on to say that one of the most brilliant men of our time is a guy named John Stuart Mill and John had some great wisdom when it comes to happiness. John Stuart Mill said, “those only are happy that have their minds fixed on some object other than their own happiness.; on the happiness of others, on the improvement of mankind, even on some art or pursuit, followed not as a means, but as itself an ideal end. Aiming thus at something else, they find happiness by the way.” I think this if a very good point to bring up, because it seems to me that most of us are not living the happiest versions of our lives due to problems, situations, circumstances and things that are almost entirely about…US. I’ve found that when I take the focus off myself and direct it toward others, happiness has a funny way of finding you. My Partner Robert Stuberg mentions that the the Founding Fathers of the Constitution may have done us a disservice by putting these words in the constitution…. We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that amount these are Life, Liberty and the PURSUIT of Happiness… I really think that the key to Happiness is to stop chasing it and start living your life in service to others. Ironically enough, this is also a massive key to success. Finding and identifying your Unique Talent and sharing it with the world is the surest recipe for both Success and Happiness. (see UT definition) When you simply take your talents and find ways to fill needs and serve others, you will find a huge amount of satisfaction, happiness, and frankly success. Think back to times in your life when you were the happiest. Most likely, these are times that you were sharing, serving or focused on others and not yourself. I challenge you to shift your focus toward others rather than yourself. Jim Carrey was giving a commencement address one time and was quoted as saying, “I think everybody should get rich and famous and do everything they ever dreamed of so they can see that it’s no the answer to happiness.” I could go on and on, but the ultimate thought I want to leave you with is this… The key to Fulfillment in this life is not Having what you want, it's wanting what you have. Its also about leaving to accept and embrace that idea that… It's not about Achieving Happiness, it’s about Happily Achieving. It’s not easy with all the distractions and competition in the world, but if you will simply remember to take the focus off you and place it on others, I think you will see much greater happiness in your life. Earl Nightingale got it right when he said How to be Happy BEFORE Success will ultimately bring you both. Thanks for listening. Have a great week. George Wright III
I’ve been lucky enough to have 25 years of Mentors and Experts Lessons and learning has been invaluable Learning More Everyday... -sometime new -sometimes timed just right…in my life. Alex Morton -30 years old -$30M in his career -expert in affiliate and network marketing -more than just a mentor -Bob Proctor Personally mentors him Bob is Private Call for about 25 of my business parters… 1-willing to help and serve others -not for recognition -not because he needs to -not because he expects anything in return 2-tuned into the exact energy, knowledge, skills i seek -you must find mentors to teach you -you must associate with those that are where you want to be -you dont need to be live, or personal, or even know you…get online Here is what we discussed and the timing couldn’t be better… If you want to succeed and create success in your life you need 3 things: 1-Desire What do you want? -do you know, is it clear, is it specific -when do you want it? Who do you want to serve, help, support? -get outside yourself. inside your head is where all your problems lie… Napoleon Hill said the key to success is a Definite Purpose backed by a Burning desire. 2-Direction Just pick a direction, but go in “A DIRECTION”. Many of us are wandering without direction, thoughts or specificity… 3-Discipline You don't need to be right, You don't need to be perfect… …you just need to be MOVING CONSISTENTLY… Discipline is the key….Follow a Blueprint…Follow a Plan Daily Rituals for you, your business, your family, etc Rituals will keep you consistent and remind you where to put your time. REMINDER….PP #3 ACT IN SPITE OF YOUR MOOD -winner do it when they don't feel like it. -winners practice, rinse and repeat -winners decide once and stay committed Ultimately I just wanted to share that message with you in hope it might inspire or motivate you. Maybe you needed a reminder. Maybe you needed some motivation. Or Maybe you know what you need to do and needed to be kicked in the butt… but ultimately, the key to success is Desire Direction Discipline So, lets get to work and make the rest of your life the best of your life and remember… It's never too late to start living the life you were meant to live…. I’m grateful for my mentor Alex Morton and Grateful I could share his mentoring with you today... George Wright III
With all the Craziness in the world today, it is important to find productive, positive ways to create change in your life. Whether you are struggling or experiencing great success right now, you can always benefit from evaluating how you see your life and those around you. My biggest solution as of late has been in focusing on more gratitude and appreciation for what I have in my life. I truly believe that if you will trade your expectations for appreciations, you will see some massive benefits in all areas of your life. It’s hard as Entrepreneurs to do this because we spend our lives working on goals and productivity. But the paradox here is that you can certainly increase your productivity and results if and when you focus your mind on gratitude and appreciation. so remember, It is possible to Train or Retrain Your Brain… -you are not your mind -your mind is a tool -you need to train your mind Neuroplasticity is scientific term that proves that you can program new and more productive pathways in your mind at any age and at any time. The secret is repetition and focus. The neurons that fire together wire together. You simply need to increase the frequency and consistency of the responses you have to situations in your life. Benefits of Gratitude
