Today's Quote of The Day

Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don't fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgement, repeated every day.

Creating An Atmosphere Conducive for Development

What is an Atmosphere?

A particular environment or surrounding influence, for example there is an atmosphere of excitement or an atmosphere of doubt. The weather or climate at some place, "the atmosphere was thick with fog" A distinctive but intangible quality surrounding a person or thing, "an air of mystery", "an atmosphere of defeat", or "the place had an aura of romance"

It is imperative that we discover how to create an atmosphere conducive for development. It is my humble conclusion that the will and desire of God for us is to develop. Fulfilling your purpose and destiny in life necessitate that we develop and grow spiritually, mentally and physically. 1 Peter 2:2 declares that “as new born babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby”. In Hebrews 5:14 Paul lets us understand that “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil”.

The Greek word for Exercise is Gegymnasmena, which indicates how an athlete exercises or trains his body. That means we need to exercise our senses (mental capabilities) to develop by reason of use.

In first Timothy 4:8 the scripture declares that, “For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come”. If you notice, it did not say that bodily exercise does not profit at all but a little. We do certainly need the little profit that bodily exercise provides as we aspire to develop spiritually, mentally and physically.

In other to cultivate an atmosphere for consistent development and growth we must apply ourselves to the following elements:

• The Word of God - 2 Timothy 2:15

• Prayer, Praise and Worship - Philippians 4:6

• Quietness - 1 Peter 3:4; 1 Thessalonians 4:11

• Separation - Proverbs 18:1

• Keeping wise relationships - Proverbs 13:20

• Meditation - Philippians 4:4-9

• Bodily Exercise – 1 Timothy 4:8

• Habitual reading - 1 Tim. 4:13

Enjoy!

How To Succeed In Tough Times

I've been noticing and I'm sure you have to, that while many companies and individuals might be struggling, right now, I have found there is also a group of companies and individuals flourishing. I've also noticed, there are some common characteristics found, in these companies and individuals who seem, to be doing well, during some of these uncertain times.
Here are five characteristics that stand out:

1. These companies and individuals operate from a win/win philosophy.

I have learned these companies and individual also inherently value their business relationships (customers, employees and vendors). I have found when you understand and appreciate this principle it allows you to create and receive value both on a short and long-term basis, as well as recognize and be, in line, for new opportunities, that begin, to present themselves.

2. These companies and individuals have an entrepreneurial mindset.

Although, it's true that when a boom is going on the entrepreneur is often leading theway, I've also noticed that when the water is high (things are going good), everything tends to even out (everyone seems to be doing well). However, when it all starts to go south, I have found it is then that entrepreneurs can rise more quickly and distinguish themselves. Their ability to take risks, be decisive, recognize and seize opportunity and to basically "create", allows them to find a way to make things happen.

3. These companies and individuals have an excellent work ethic and focus.

In sports, if you were to ask, who, in their respective sport, has been a dominantfigure, three immediately come, to my mind - Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan andWayne Gretsky. Beyond their remarkable ability and talent, there is also something about these three that helped propel them into greatness - their fierce competitiveness and their incredible work ethic. How do you beat the most talented person in the world when they will also out work you and have a "will to win" that is, not, to be exceeded? I have learned, the same is true, in business. I have found the top performers do not get complacent. They do not rest on their laurels. And they don't decide that because they are doing well or are on top that that is good enough. Their work ethic and drive, to be their personal best, has allowed previous victories and momentum to carry over into more success, even in difficult times.

4. These companies and individuals have made a commitment to succeed.

I have learned that making a decision is the prerequisite to all successes. It has been said, all good things are upstream, but the natural tendency is downstream. Commitment creates the mindset that allows us to face challenges, shut out negative circumstances and discomfort and then move upstream, towards our goals.

5. These companies and individuals operate, out of faith.

Without faith it is impossible to take risk. Without faith it is impossible to make investments of time and effort, in the present, while hoping, for a future reward. And, without faith, it is impossible, to make short-term sacrifices, on a consistent basis. Faith allows you, to be free, to give and be your best, knowing that the reward will manifest itself sometime, in the future. Faith, also allows you to, find the opportunity that often comes disguised, in the form of a problem or challenge. While others are "missing it" or spending their time and energy complaining, the person or company of faith is identifying and seizing new opportunities.

So, I have a question. How do you rate yourself, in these five areas, above? I would estimate, much of where you find yourself, today, could be directly related, to how well you have fared, the past few years, in regards, to the five points above.

The good news is, today, is a new day, a new opportunity. Finally, I want you, to know, that I love hearing all the testimonials and success stories from our associates.

And, I want you to know, that now is your time, the time to work on yourself, your relationships, your business, etc., and then, to attract all the success outcomes you deserve.

While you are creating the new you, look at every challenge you might be facing as anopportunity to "create" new and better outcomes.

I have found life is full of opportunities. Go For It!

Yours in good health,

A Great Story

Once upon a time there was a bunch of tiny frogs.... who arranged a running competition. The goal was to reach the top of a very high tower. A big crowd had gathered around the tower to see the race and cheer on the contestants....The race began....

Honestly: No one in crowd really believed that the tiny frogs would reach the top of the tower. You heard statements such as:

"Oh, WAY too difficult!!"

"They will NEVER make it to the top." or:

"Not a chance that they will succeed"

"The tower is too high!"

The tiny frogs began collapsing. One by one.... Except for those, who in a fresh tempo, were climbing higher and higher....The crowd continued to yell, "It is too difficult!!! No one will make it!"

More tiny frogs got tired and gave up.... But ONE continued higher and higher and higher.... This one wouldn't give up! At the end everyone else had given up climbing the tower. Except for the one tiny frog who, after a big effort, was the only one who reached the top! THEN all of the other tiny frogs naturally wanted to know how this one frog managed to do it?

A contestant asked the tiny frog how he had found the strength to succeed and reach the goal? It turned out.... That the winner was DEAF!!!!

The wisdom of this story is: Never listen to other people's tendencies to be negative or pessimistic.... because they take your most wonderful dreams and wishes away from you -- the ones you have in your heart!

Always think of the power words have. Because everything you hear and read will affect your actions! Therefore: ALWAYS be....POSITIVE! And above all: Be DEAF when people tell YOU that you cannot fulfill your dreams!

Always think: GOD AND I CAN DO THIS!

Most people walk in and out of your life......but FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart.

The Power of Self Improvement

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. Romans 12:1-2

Kaizen is a Japanese management term referring to constant, continuous and never ending improvement. Anthony Robbins calls this concept CANI which stands for Constant And Never Ending Improvement. There is no pursuit more venerable than the pursuit of self improvement. Self-improvement begins with your born again spirit, your mind, as you consistently renew it with God’s word. Consistent and constant pursuit of improvement in all areas of your life is indispensable in the attainment of your true potential.

The personal mark of almost every high achiever and successful people is a daily dedication to improvement in both personal and professional lives. To be effective you have to do things daily and consistently and not haphazardly so as to advance congruently in the direction of your goals, ultimate purpose and destiny.

It is imperative to apply the Kaizen or CANI principle on a consistent basis to every component of your life from spiritual to physical, business to family so as to attain peak performance as you migrate toward your desired end.

By improving daily, whether it is by spending some time exercising, reading, visualizing or forging better relationships, you are making regular deposits and evolving toward a desired attainable end.

You Are Responsible

You are responsible. The most important personal decision you can make is to accept complete responsibility for everything you are and everything you will ever be. Financial freedom is only possible when you accept complete responsibility for your financial situation. The acceptance of complete responsibility indicates your refusal to make excuses or blame others for your current financial dilemma. You refuse to criticize others for any reason or to complain about your financial predicament but you must accept full responsibility for your current situation before any meaningful and lasting changes can occur financially or any other aspect of your life for that matter.

The acceptance of responsibility is the foundation of high self-esteem, self-respect and personal pride that are necessary ingredients for goal setting and the momentum needed to drive you toward that goal. Financial independence begins with a specific, attainable goals and create a definite plan for carrying out your desire. You must decide exactly on the amount of money you intend to acquire, state the time limit for its acquisition. Then, you must describe clearly a detailed plan of action through which you intend to achieve your financial goals.
