QUOTES OF THE WEEK
"It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision."
"The marvelous richness of human experience would
lose something
of rewarding joy if there were no limitations to overcome. The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse." -Helen Keller (1880-1968 American Blind/Deaf Author & Lecturer)
Thank You
I thought I change things up and put what and who
is most important, first. On behalf of the entire team at
Your Seeds for Success, I
would like to first thank God, and then you, for making the month
of August magnificent and memorable. It remains an
incredible experience meeting, working with and hearing
from extremely gifted people. Your
Seeds for Success has grown
an unimaginable 2300% during this quarter alone. We are hustling
to keep up with the expansion, your needs and demands. We could
not have done it without your love and support and are deeply
indebted to you.
Speaking of Quarters...
We are approaching the final quarter of the year.
Can you believe it? So, what are you
going to master in the final stretch? If you haven't planned
anything specific, yet ... today is a great day. Here's a
challenge. Consider these seven disciplines: Spiritual,
Financial, Personal, Professional, Physical, Emotional and
Intellectual. Pick the two disciplines that you would
most benefit from. For each discipline, write
down one, specific goal.
For each goal, write down two objectives
(two, specific steps that lead you to each goal). Make
sure your goals and objectives are exciting, clear,
attainable, include units of measure, a deadline and an
immediate reward. Here's an example of Cory's goal and
respective objectives:
Professional Goal: I am a
State of Colorado Licensed Real Estate Agent on May 8,
2005
Two Objectives:
A. " I will
read and review Introduction to Colorado Real Estate
and pass all practice tests in the book with a
90% proficiency rate by October 28, 2004.
B. "I will
read and review Colorado Real Estate
Principles and pass all
practice tests in the book with a 90% proficiency
rate by December 5, 2004. When I meet
both of my objectives, I will immediately reward myself
with an outing with Michelle on December 10, 2004 that
includes skiing, fun and first-class lodging."

September 1, 2004.
Even if you aren't even remotely interested in
Colorado Real Estate or skiing, you can feel the excitement. See
how clear and attainable Cory's "biggest picture" becomes with
specifics, details and a deadline? Fun is not only an
incentive, but an important part of the journey. The keys are
breaking the whole into parts, keeping the biggest picture in
front, reviewing your objectives on a regular basis and making
time for rest and rewards. In January-or next quarter-repeat,
stretch and enlarge your vision. Cory may want to take a class
or an accredited online class in Real Estate. But let's not get
ahead of ourselves. Go to work on yourself and start your master
plan today. Identify two goals and four objectives for
next quarter. Then, keep the change!
Five More Secrets of the Fittest
1) See physical activity as a pleasurable, privilege and not a burdening
chore.
2)
Wake up each day and focused and excited about your life.
3)
Stretch to reach your objectives every day.
4)
Review each day at the end of the day, for tomorrow's action plan.
5)
Enjoy uninterrupted, adequate amounts of sleep.
How to
Get to the Next Level
If your desire is to get to the next level you
must first see yourself at the next level. If your next level is
maintaining a permanently organized office, see yourself as an
organized, office manager. Raise your thoughts and expectations so they
reflect what you desire. Create and affirm a powerful statement fueled
with positive energy. Say it and sing it hourly. This catapults you in
the direction you want to go. Then, each and every day, do what an
organized office manager does.
Success Leaves Clues
Here's a short-cut to success. Identify and find
information on one thing you want to achieve. Talk with, or interview
others who are doing what you desire to do. Take great notes. Choose
one individual who has succeeded and confidently ask if they will mentor
you. You'll be amazed when you hear, "I would love to." Set
up a clear plan with your mentor which outlines exactly how you will
achieve your goal.
Something to Do About
