Have You Lost Your Focus?

We all know how important it is to focus on what we want.

But what happens when we lose focus?

It's easy to do, isn't it?

We get distracted. Something captures our interest and
diverts our attention away from our chosen objective.
We suffer setbacks. Things don't work out as planned.
Someone lets us down. Circumstances change and good plans go
bad. We get interrupted. An important matter takes precedence, sometimes for long periods of time.


We must first recognize that we've lost focus. And at the
earliest opportunity, we must recommit. We have to get back
on the horse we fell off from and ride again.

And this is what separates the winners from the losers.

The loser says it's too hard. He says it's not worth the
effort. He thinks it's just "not in the cards" and he quits.
But the winner doesn't take setback personally. She
dusts herself off and recommits to the plan. She sees the
setback as just that -- a setback -- not a sign that it's
not to be.

Today's a new day. The past is just as historic as if it had
happened a thousand years ago. You can't change what's
happened or not happened. But you can recommit. You can
refocus.

You can start anew.

So do it today. Remember the power of TNT -- Today, Not
Tomorrow.


"I have a written plan for the things I want to achieve in
my life. I spend time each day focusing on the things I want
to see come to fruition. I apply action on the things I have
written down and in doing so I am moving in the direction of
my intended desires -- for the good of all concerned."

Leave The World A Bit Better

One of Ralph Waldo Emerson works was a poem on success, and
one of his measures of success in that poem was to, 'Leave
the world a bit better.'

That line has always stuck in my head. Emerson said you have
succeeded if you leave the world a bit better. And I have
made that line part of my life philosophy. When the tide
goes out there is a watermark left behind of where the water
was.

When the waters of life recede from the shore of my being
and my heart pumps for the last time, my desire is that
there will be a mark where I stood. My aim is that the mark
will say, 'She has done what she could.'

Our society tells us that success is measured by bank
accounts, power, beauty and wealth. These are often the
result of hard work, luck or birth. They are not evil and I
strive for some of them daily. However, they are not the
mark I will measure the success of my life with.

So how do you do it? How do you 'leave the world a bit better?

"I am ever on the lookout to leave a positive impact on
others. Everyday that I live up to my full potential I have
the chance to be a glowing example for others to do the same."

HEY!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Symptons Of Success

Just getting back from a tour from the US.
I met a lot of successful people during my stay there.
And it occurred to me that despite their
different nationalities, faiths and businesses they all had
something in common. They had all overcome big setbacks. As
a matter of fact, their success was in direct proportion to
the size of the challenges they faced.

The big idea: setbacks are symptoms of success. If you are
not facing setbacks then you are probably not dreaming big
enough. If you are not experiencing setbacks you are
probably playing small with your life.

Without roadblocks there are no victories. Challenges forge
the greatness in you. They let you know what isn't working.
They force you to be creative. They are the road to your NLG
(Next Level of Greatness).

So, the next time you face a setback take a moment to
celebrate. I know that roadblocks can be frustrating or
depressing or embarrassing. Yet, the best among us find a
way to keep on acting in the rainstorm of these emotions
(and like rainstorms, emotions eventually pass).

Think of the sales rep who makes the next call after a
rejection or the athlete who works as hard at physiotherapy
as their game when injured, or the student who changes their
study habits after a failed exam. They all keep moving
towards their mountaintop because they all know that the
path to their greatest life is never straight.

...And that's what I'm doing!!

Way to Go...!!!

Rules For A Perfect Day

Just for today...

I will try to live and delight in the reality of being
alive. My past is forever gone, my future an uncertainty, so
I will be happy and thankful for each moment.

I will not allow negative input into my mind... happiness is
a choice and I choose to be happy.

I will be thankful to God for my health, my loved ones, my
business, and my country. I will also be thankful for any
pain in crisis that helps me grow because God has said, be
thankful in all things.

I will treat everyone I meet today the way I would like to
be treated. I will strive to have them like themselves
better when they're with me.

I will avoid gossip, jealousy, and negative thinking. Most
people don't think about what they talk about. Today, I
will make a conscious effort to hold loving and beautiful
thoughts in my mind.

I will not take rejection personally. I am first and
foremost in the people business and, thus, realize they can
only reject my proposal and not me. I will keep on keepin'
on.

I will spend time in prayer, asking God to let others see
the light of His shining love through me.

...And most of all I WILL BE HAPPY!!

Pls Read To The End!!

A friend forwarded this story to me.
I simply loved it so I decided to share with you.
Enjoy!!

One day a farmer's donkey fell down into a
well. The animal cried piteously for hours as
the farmer tried to figure out what to do.

Finally, he decided the animal was old, and the
well needed to be covered up anyway;
just wasn't worth it to retrieve the donkey.

He invited all his neighbors to come over and
help him. They all grabbed a shovel and began
to shovel dirt into the well. At first, the
donkey realized what was happening and cried
horribly. Then, to everyone's amazement he
quieted down.

A few shovel loads later, the farmer finally
looked down the well. He was astonished at what
he saw. With each shovel of dirt that hit his
back, the donkey was doing something amazing.
He would shake it off and take a step up.

As the farmer's neighbors continued to shovel
dirt on top of the animal, he would shake it
off and take a step up.

Pretty soon, everyone was amazed as the donkey
stepped up over the edge of the well and
happily trotted off!

Life is going to shovel dirt on you, all kinds
of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well
is to shake it off and take a step up. Each of
our troubles is a steppingstone. We can get out
of the deepest wells just by not stopping,
never giving up! Shake it off and take a step up.

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.

Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.

Live simply and appreciate what you have.

Give more.

Expect less. . . . .

Perseverance

One inch at a time. That is how I climb and that is how I live. Sure, the summit is my goal, but without each carefully calculated move, I could never make it to the top. Each small step and each giant reach presents a unique challenge. As I move up the cliff, I recognize characteristics of the rock and then adapt learned techniques to advance further toward the goal.

My father taught me perseverance by his example. I remember him going back to college when I was little. He worked all day, attended classes in the evening and then came home to study. I don’t know how he did it, but somehow the yard work got done and he kept the car maintained. I never have asked him how he managed, but he did. When I was just ten years old, my father received his degree. It took him many years, but he reached his goal and then moved on to other challenges.

As I reach the summit, I look back down and enjoy the moment. Then I gather my gear and start planning my next climb. One inch at a time.

Never give up, remember this: before the breakfast of champions there was the breakfast of failures.
