What Makes You Come Alive?

“Don’t ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive. And then go and do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.”~Harold Whitman

What makes you come alive? Your work? Only if you are a part of the 22% that like/love what they do...as 78% of Americans hate their job. Wow, what a depressing statistic. 78% of people hate their jobs!!! My question to those of you that do...WHY? Why are you still doing what you hate to do? To pay the bills? To keep up with the neighbors? To get that next toy? Is it really worth it???

Do what makes you come alive!!! The world needs more people who have come alive and are willing to share it with the world. I talk with people all the time who say they can't do what they want to do because of this reason or that reason. The main reason is fear (thought they won't say that) and it's holding them back and keeping them stuck where they are. You will either have excuses or results.  So sad.

If you are doing what you love, congratulations. Are you remarkable doing it? I hope so, because the world needs remarkable people and each of you are unique and if you don't bring that uniqueness to the world, the world will never see it...because only you have it to bring to the world!

If you are not remarkable, then maybe we should talk. Remember, being remarkable doesn't mean being remarkable to you...it means being remarkable to others. Are you remarkable to others??

Make It Happen, Let It Happen, Wonder What Happened

"When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened." ~John M. Richardson Jr.

Which one are you??? I know, you are one of those who make it happen, right? But really, do you make it happen or do you just say that you do? It's real easy to say, but much harder to do and when things get hard, we tend to not do them. Because it's too hard or will take too long or we are not committed to doing it, so we don't. Then we just let life happen to us.

Are you interested or are you committed?  See, because if your just interested, you will do things when they are easy or you can do them quickly.  If you are only interested when things get hard, you will quit.  If you are committed, you will do whatever it takes.  No excuses. Period!!

It's an interesting thing about the future...you can create it!  Especially when it comes to your business.  Do you want to be one of those who wondered what happened to their business or would you rather (make it happen) create a stable business.  If that's you, join us Thursday at the "Your Prospects Aren't Paying Attention To You" workshop.  You'll learn how to MAKE IT HAPPEN, not just let it happen!

Don't Dabble, Direct Your Focus

“One reason so few of us achieve what we truly want is that we never direct our focus; we never concentrate our power. Most people dabble their way through life, never deciding to master anything in particular.”~Tony Robbins

Are you dabbling your way through life? Have you never decided to master anything in life? That's why you aren't achieving as much as you want, because you haven't put the power of focus to work for you. It is said that it takes 5000 hours to become competent at something and 10,000 hours to become a master. How are you coming along towards those 5000 hours?

Most people don't have what they want because they don't know what they want out of life. Do you? Really?? If you do, good for you. If not, decide right now what you want and focus on getting it. Be specific about what you want and why. Your why will always be the strongest partner for you because your why will drive you to get what you want.

Decide what you want. Stop dabbling your way through life and start to master something. You can't get to 10,000 hours without putting the first hour of work in!

The Full Force Of Passions

“Our passions are the winds that propel our vessel. Our reason is the pilot that steers her. Without winds the vessel would not move and without a pilot she would be lost."

How fast is your ship sailing? Does it have the full gale force of passion behind it or is it just meandering slowly across the water?  Is your passion the driving force behind what you do?  Or are you just floating through life, playing small? Does the passion come and go like a gust or is it steady, moving you in the direction that you want to go?

How often do you reasses your passion to see what level you are operating at?  Too many of us have let the passion slip away and we are just doing things because we have always have done them...No passion.  No why.

Is your vessel lost? Is it without a pilot to steer her? Does the pilot know clearly where it is headed or is the place just 'somewhere over there?' Does the pilot have the knowledge to know what to do when the gale force winds of passion drive the ship?  Our challenge arises because most of us have no real clarity about what we really want.  Sure, you have wants, but without clarity, those wants will never be satisfied and that is why we stay stuck.

Get crystal clear on what you want...and then go out and grab it!

One way to get crystal clear is to fill out the "Reflect Back and Plan Forward" worksheet.  If you would like one, send an email to david@mentoringyoursuccess.com or text your email to 602-577-2624 and I will send it to you.

Have You Desinged Your Life?

"The reason why most people face the future with apprehension instead of anticipation is because they don’t have it well designed." ~Jim Rohn

Are you facing the future with apprehension? It could be because you haven't really been specific in the design of your life. You might have an idea of where you want to go but without specifics, you end up sidetracked and going down the wrong roads, chasing the wrong things.

It's important to realize that we get to choose the design of our life, no one else does. And even if they have a plan for you, it's not much of a plan.

Jim Rohn also said "If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else's plan. And guess what they may have planned for you? Not much." It will always be that way. You have to choose what you want and then go after it.

Look to the future with anticipation and design your own life plan.

You Were Created In Order To Make A Difference

"How far forward would we need to go in your life to show the difference you make? There are generations yet unborn whose very lives will be shifted and shaped by the moves you make and the actions you take today. And tomorrow. And the next day. And the next."

"EVERY SINGLE THING YOU DO MATTERS.

You have been created as one of a kind. On the planet Earth, there has never been one like you…and there never will be again. Your spirit, your thoughts and feelings, you ability to reason and act all exist in no one else. The rarities that make you special are no mere accident or quirk of fate.

YOU HAVE BEEN CREATED IN ORDER THAT YOU MIGHT MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

YOU HAVE WITHIN YOU THE POWER TO CHANGE THE WORLD.

Know that your actions cannot be hoarded, saved for later, or selectively used.

By your hand, millions – billions – of lives will be altered, caught up in a chain of events begun by you this day.

The very beating of your heart has meaning and purpose. 
Your actions have value far greater than silver or gold.

Your life…And what you do with it today…MATTERS FOREVER."

Here's the thing about letting things happen to you. If you don't have a plan, you will become a part of someone else's plan.  And guess what, their plan doesn't have much for you. I hope that you aren't one of the ones who just wonder what happened. Everything happens for a reason. There are no coincidences.  Everything happens for a reason.

Go about today and MAKE THINGS HAPPEN! Don't go through this day just letting it happen to you. Create the life that you've always wanted.

As you think about your ship and the destination that you are headed to, what do you see? Are there storm clouds ahead or will it be smooth sailing? Maybe it will be a little of both, but are you ready for anything?

Get crystal clear on what you want...and then go out and grab it!
