The lessons start at home. You learn from your parents, siblings, and surroundings.  Summer is coming to an end and my children are back in school hitting the books.  Great leaders are always looking to learn more and go to that next level. Life will present you with opportunities to continue your education. You can go to college, fall in love, or start a business.  You will be able to use your experience to enrich the lives of everyone around you.  Commit today to a lifetime of learning, loving, and growing.

Peace,

What do you love? What moves you to a place of peace and purpose?  You will hear a lot about love this month.  It is more than one day, flowers, or cute greeting cards.  Do something today that you have always wanted to do and embrace that moment with all of the love you have. God is love, follow your heart, and you will always be on the right path.

Peace& Blessings,

On July 4, 1776, America declared its independence from Great Britain. We celebrate this day with fireworks, parades, and various other public and private events. When are you going to declare your independence? We all deserve freedom from fear, self-doubt, and negative habits. Commit to being your true self. Take back your freedom, dance, laugh, and display your god given fireworks to the world!

What you focus on grows. Simple but true. If you purchase a new car, you will begin to see that car everywhere you go. The following tips will help you take your focus to the next level.

1. Having a clear vision and setting goals. I have written about the importance of  your vision and goals in the past.(see previous posts) Setting S.M.A.R.T. goals is key. Write down your goals, review them often, and it will keep you from getting  distracted.
2. Solitude.  You need to block off some time to clear your mind.  You can listen to music, meditate, or relax in nature. This will give you time to slow down from the hectic pace and demands of your life.  I have used solitude to stay focused and take my productivity to a higher level.
3. Work with your team. Talk to your family, close friends or life coach. They can be accountability partners and remind you when your behavior is not consistent with your goals.

We can always choose to perceive things differently. You can focus on what’s wrong in your life, or you can focus on what’s right.

2010 could be your Best Year Ever but it’s all up to you.  Use the power of setting goals to give yourself more clarity, focus and to track your progress.  Start today! Begin to create the life you want and deserve. Read the information below about goals:

The key to succeeding at your goals is to make sure that they are S.M.A.R.T Goals. What are S.M.A.R.T Goals? I thought you’d never ask!

S.M.A.R.T Goals are…

Specific – A specific goal has a much greater chance of being accomplished than a general goal.

Measurable – Establish concrete criteria for measuring progress toward the attainment of each goal that you set.

Attainable – When you identify goals that are most important to you, you begin to figure out ways you can make them come true. You develop the Attitudes, Abilities, Skills, and Financial Capacity to reach them.

Relevant – Make sure that your goal is relevant to the vision that you have For your life. If the goal that you are making does not align with your vision then what is the point?

Timely– A goal should be grounded within a time frame. With no time frame tied to it there’s no sense of urgency.

Peace & Blessings,

What do you want out of life? Please pause and really think about that question. This world may have you thinking that all you need is more money, a luxury car, or a big house. These are good goals to have but just remember more money, cars, or houses don’t necessarily equal complete happiness.

There are many wealthy people living on this planet that don’t feel complete because they lack loving relationships, happiness, and fulfillment. I believe this kind of lack is true poverty. I would like to encourage you to look deep within. God has given each one of us a unique set of gifts that will impact the world in a positive way.

The key is to discover this passion and unlock your true gifts to the world. Take your focus away from other people’s opinions or judgments of you, material things, and your own self doubt. Go to a quiet place and feel what’s going on inside of you. When you learn to use your gifts in a positive way, the world will respond back positively and vice versa. If you can learn to do this, I guarantee that your life will never be the same again!  -Tarik Lee
