Where Did Your Quarter Go?
It's not often that a single quarter lasts a lifetime.
Just as there are four quarters in every dollar; there are four
quarters in every year. As of today, one of your "quarters" are now
gone.
How did you spend it? Or, did you invest it? Was it
misplaced? Stolen? Or did you lose it in a "cushion?"
At any rate, take in account you still have three
quarters left. Now, I know that doesn't sound like much to get you
through the remainder of the year. However, used wisely, you can earn
a lifetime's worth of substantial earned interest and reap
huge dividends.

book, Seeds for Success by Fran
Briggs
The WIT to WIN
Here's a great strategy for monumental success. Make a
list of "What's Important Today." This is you WIT.
Next, immediately begin working on
"What's Important Now." This is your WIN.
Your WIN represents each
itemized priority on your list. When you get one WIN
under your belt, immediately go after the next one; and then the
one after that...

Power Hour Goal Setting
Reach any ambition or goal by setting hourly, power goals. Sound like a time-consuming, arduous task? Well, that's because it only sounds like a time-consuming, arduous task. In all actuality, setting a goal for each of your waking hours can be exciting, challenging and life-transforming.
If you made a goal to eliminate Pepsi Cola from your
list of beverages of choice. Do so; one hour at a time. Affirm your
commitment with written and verbal statements. Avoid stating or
writing down anything that even remotely sounds like: "I will not
have a Pepsi-Cola this hour." You'll be sacked with a lack
attack! Instead, write down and state out loud: "I am replacing
seltzer water (or another beverage) for Pepsi Cola this hour."
Each "Pepsi-free" hour becomes a power hour. And, a string of
power hours can represent the most incredible day. Make every hour
a power hour and put yourself on the fastrack to an amazing life.
Mind Your Money
by Cheryl
Broussard
Set Up a Savings Plan. The earlier the
better. When you begin your savings plan, your first goal is to build
a money cushion -- three to six months’ salary -- to tie you over in
case of a "cash crunch." You want quick access to the money so
keep it in a money market account
with check writing privileges or a savings account. If saving money
isn’t quite your cup of tea, make it easy on yourself by setting up
your savings plan with an automatic transfer from your paycheck into
the account. It’s a no-brainer and you’ve paid yourself first!

Your vision is the picture of the outcome you want to create or experience. Therefore, your vision is something that you want to keep near -- not far. The
more vivid and real your vision is, the more enthusiasm
and inspiration you will generate for realizing it. It's time to stop
admiring your vision from a distance. Keep your vision up close and
personal. Focus -- really zoom in on your vision today. Then, move
toward it with intention and conviction.
Write Down Your Top
Five Accomplishments For The Quarter
This exercise is simple, affirming, and incredibly powerful. The quarter
often passes by so quickly that, we often forget
to recognize the amazing tasks that we accomplished. Sometime today,
take the time and write down your "Top Five Accomplishments for the
Quarter." Read each one out loud. You'll discover that you will be
incredibly inspired. So, go ahead and celebrate with a stretch. Make a
list of ten accomplishments you'd like to target for the next three
months.
