Today’s Motivation MAKING THE MOST OF IT

It was Saturday night, my wife was at her fun job, a woman’s
clothing store. I had planned the evening in front of the computer
working on our FaceBook FanPage and preparing copy for our
next email campaign.

6:45 PM Beep, Beep, Beep… both our UPS’s (uninterrupted power
supply) were singing. Power was out. A pretty good thunderstorm
had just passed through but all the lightening and thunder had
ended 20 minutes ago. For the most part FPL (Florida Power and
Light, or as we Floridians like to refer to as Flicker, Plunder and
Loot) keeps us with light and, more importantly, air conditioning.
Couldn’t figure why the power went out now.

A hard phone line comes in handy at times like these. FPL says it
will have power back by tomorrow morning! Whoa! No computer,
no TV, no lights and, oh yeah, no A/C. No way!

So, life hands us lemons some times. (Personally, I like lemons and
think they get a bad rap for stuff they had nothing to do with.) Like
they say, time to make lemonade. I agree. I can still write and read
and that’s going to keep me productive, even if by candle power.

Time to “make the most of it…” just the way it is.

Today’s Motivation MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION?

MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION?

If you will not speak up for yourself then who will? How will the
world know what special talent you have to offer if you don’t open
your mouth?

Everyone has a voice, a powerful loud speaker connected directly
from your thoughts, your dreams and your motivations. If it is
put on mute there is nothing to distinguish you from the herd.

Speak up for yourself. Enroll others in your ideas and visions. Shout
from the highest mountain those things that are important to you,
to the world.

Today’s Motivation - What’s Your Story?

What’s Your Story?

I was recently asked “what’s your story?” It got me thinking.
Am I going to tell a story of my past or what?

The past is history, where we’ve come from the experiences
we’ve gone through. You did this, you did that. You had this
happen, you had that happen. It is informational

What if, when asked “what’s your story?”, it became about
what you are creating, the life you are living into, what you
are bringing forth into the world? There is mighty power in
projecting your will and desire into life.

So, when someone asks you about your story or your business
or what you do make it about what you are up to causing.

So, What’s Your Story?

Today’s Motivation 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #12

STEVE JOBS 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #12

“Learn continually. There’s always “one more thing” to learn.
Cross-pollinate ideas with others both within and outside your
company. Learn from customers, competitors and partners. If
you partner with someone whom you don’t like, learn to like 
them - praise them and benefit from them. Learn to criticize
your enemies openly, but honestly.”

A life long process learning is. Input is important; new input,
differing input innovates. Everyone with whom you come in
contact has some teaching to offer. Be open to it. Seek out
foreign ideas to incorporate into your thinking. There’s always
room for another idea.

Today’s Motivation 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #11

STEVE JOBS 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #11

“Learn from failures. Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes.
It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other
innovations.”

Respect your failures. They are milestones on the journey. Everyone makes
them, everyone is human.

In flying when you have a problem the rule is climb, confess and comply.
It works in your life too. Climb to get the bigger picture as the view from
above gives greater information. Confess is to tell that you made a mistake,
you have a failure, something is amiss. It gives others a sense of your being
a straight shooter. And, comply with the laws of nature to move forward
and rectify the failure.

You are now cleared for takeoff!

Today’s Motivation 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #10

STEVE JOBS 12 RULES TO SUCCESS - #10

“Innovate. Innovation distinguishes a leader from a follower. Delegate. Let
other top executives do 50% of your routine work to be able to spend 50%
your time on the new stuff. Say no to 1,000 things to make sure you don’t
get on the wrong track or try to do too much. Concentrate on really im-
portant creations and radical innovation. Hire people who want to make
the best things in the world. You need a very product-oriented culture,
even in a technology company. Lots of companies have tons of great
engineers and smart people. But ultimately, there needs to be some gravi-
tational force that pulls it all together.”

You cannot be a leader by following others. The view is always the same.
Step out in front with new ideas. Free your time to develop, formulate,
conceive and evolve. Align yourself and your organization with the people 
destine to excel. Let inspiration pull it all together.
