Keep Your Power and Strength
We are approaching the end of the first month of 2010, a time when most of the resolutions we set in the hope of the new year have faded and we succumb to the gravitational pull of the past. Yes its become easier to fall back into complacency.
Can you see already what the dream stealers in your life this year are going to be? There are always a few patterns, behaviors or impulses that lurk beneath the surface of your consciousness, waiting to whittle away at your self-esteem and veer you off into those dead-end cycles. Maybe you think you can just have one drink, one cupcake, one Coca Cola, or one day off from your exercise program. The problem with these dream stealers is that they lurke in the closets of your life and you begin to give in to them, thinking that they are the truth, giving your power away to them, letting go of your dreams and goals. Thinking it just might now be possible.
When did you give your power over to these dream stealers...when did you fell your energy begin to slow down? when did you decided that some urge, impulse or feeling could direct the level of success and achievement you experience in your future? These are the questions that you have to use to challenge the urges, the impulses, and the destructive repetitive patterns that keep you wound up tight inside and stuck in your robotic predictable past.
This is the year, this is the time, this is the day to reclaim your power. Isnt it your time?
Will you join me in a 21 day Cleanse and Rejuevenation program.
Feb 1-21.
If you have a desire to succeed, be energized, reach your desires, Get your Body in great shape, Get your "Happiness Account" filling up, and Get your Bank account filling up, then follow our blog. and please let me know how you are doing...
This Weeks Work...
(1) Fess up to whatever it is that you listen to -- the voice, the internal conversation, the feelings, the fear -- that can suck you into the rat hole of self-despair.
(2) Now ask yourself, What am I reading for growth?
When did I last cleanse my body?
Who do I talk to - for masterminding? Who do I need for support?
What are my dreams...are they written out clearly? for this month?
For this Year?
(3) Take the actions to reclaim your power.
It's not too late to arrive at the end of this year feeling accomplished, inspired and in awe of who you've become. Having the best year of your life is a one-hour-at-a-time process. Trust me. You have the power and the strength to win! -- one choice at a time. You can do it.

I know I have said this before...
As I sit looking at the fruit on the trees...I must say I think it is a little cool for them with but still what a beautiful setting of palm trees, mountains, fruit trees...it all makes me smile.
(did i mention how I love Palm Dessert)
but I picked oranges and grapefruit yesterday...
I thought of the metaphor...there is so much fruit ripe for the picking in my life.
There is so much greatness, and ripe for the picking.
Review your vision board today.
As I come upon the end of January I always review my vision board and that is when
I do the revamp for the next 365 days.
Guess what....its almost all happened...so how exciting to do it all again.
Review your capacity to
BE More!
DO More!
HAVE more of the life you desire!
Why you? Why Now?
Let's face it - - things as we knew them are rapidly changing. There seems to be less of almost everything and fewer people have a hold on what is available. The systems and structures we once relied and depended upon seem to be failing or falling. If you listen to the world reports, we seem to be at the mercy of things and people over which we have no control.
Here Is A Dose Of The Truth!
You have more power at your disposal than you could ever use or imagine!
That's right! You are POWERFUL! You probably knew that already but, the question is - - Are you using your personal power;
EFFECTIVELY
EFFICIENTLY
CONSISTENTLY
In every area of your life OR - -
Have you been frightened into inaction and stagnation?
What are you committed to this week in your life?
Can you do it with powerful enthusiasm?

I want to share this from one of my favorite authors.
Robyn Sharma

Or Begin with The Alchemist!
Lets Make our Year a very succcessful growth Year.
Here we are on the road to YOUR Success!!!
62 WAYS TO MAKE 2010 YOUR BEST YEAR YET
1. Remember that leadership isn't about your position. It's about your influence.
2. Get fit like a pro athlete.
3. Lift people up versus tearing people down.
4. Protect your good name. An impeccable reputation takes a lifetime to build. And 60 seconds to lose.
5. Surround yourself with positive, ethical people who are committed to excellence.
6. Remember that even a 1% daily innovation rate amounts to at least a 100% rate of innovation in 100 days.
7. Believe in your dreams (even when others laugh at them).
8. Measure your success, not by your net worth but by your self worth (and how happy you feel).
9. Take an intelligent risk every 24 hours. No try-No Win.
10. Read "Buffett: The Making of an American Capitalist".
11. Watch "Man on Wire".
12. Regardless of your title at work, be a team builder.
13. Remember that business is all about relationships and human connections.
14. Say "please" more.
15. Say "thank you" more.
16. Know your Big 5: the five things that need to happen by the end of this year for you to feel its been your best year yet.
17. Read your Big 5 every morning while the rest of the world is asleep.
18. Read "As You Think". At least twice this year.
19. Be willing to fail. It's the price of greatness.
20. Focus less on making money and more on creating value.
21. Spend less, save more. Put 50% of your income into your savings if you want a big Year! Start with 10% if needed and grow up to 50% Just for one year.
22. Leave everything you touch better than you found it.
23. Be the most positive person in every room you're in.
24. Run your own race.
24. Stay true to your deepest values and best ideals.
25. Write a handwritten thank you note to a customer/friend/loved one every day.
26. When you travel, send love letters to your kids on hotel stationary. In time, they'll have a rich collection to remember your travels by.
27. Read "Atlas Shrugged".
28. Be a problem solver versus a trouble maker.
29. Rather than doing many things at mediocrity do just a few things-but at mastery.
30. Honor your parents.
31. Commit to doing great work-whether anyone notices it or not. It's one of life's best sources of happiness.
32. Give more than you receive (another of the truths of happiness).
33. Have your 1/3/5/10/25 years goals recorded on paper and review them weekly.
34. Be patient. Slow and steady wins the race. The only reason businesses that went from zero to a billion in a year or two get featured in magazines is because 99% of businesses require a lot more time to win.
34. Underpromise and then overdeliver.
35. See part of your job as "a developer of people" (whether you work in the boardroom or the mailroom).
36. Wear your heart on your sleeve. When people see you're real, they'll fall in love with you.
37. Be authentic versus plastic.
38. Read "The Alchemist". This is an amazing Book. I am going to start to read it again!
39. Remember that life wants you to win. So get out of your own way.
40. Consider that behind every fear lives your next level of growth (and power).
41. Eat less food.
42. Drink more water.
43. Rest when you need to.
44. Read "SUCCESS" magazine.
45. Write your eulogy and them live your life backwards.
46. Demand the best from yourself.
47. Remember that the more you go to your limits, the more your limits will expand.
48. See everything that happens to you as an opportunity to grow (and therefore, as a precious gift).
49. Be obsessed with learning and self-development.
50. Become comfortable alone (you are the only person you get to be with your whole life).
51. Smile. It's a stunningly effective way to win in business and life.
52. Reflect on the shortness of life.
53. Be bold when it comes to your dreams but gentle with those you love.
54. Remember that success is dangerous because it can kill drive/innovation/passion and going the extra mile. Be successful yet stay hungry.
55. Read "The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin".
56. Be of deep value to this world.
57. Own beautiful things but don't let them own you.
58. Use excellent words.
59. Laugh more.
60. Don't complain, gossip or be negative.
61. Plan as if you'll live forever but live as if you'll die tomorrow.
62. Feel free to pass these lessons on to those you want to help.
