 The gist of the other spectrum is in the ground work

“Do not fear, little flock, for it is your Almighty good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” Luke 12:32. Keep Thinking Big/Knowledge Towards Breakthrough/Kingdom Trends Brilliance!   “You don’t have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great.” ~ Zig Ziglar Starting is the most important part of success, even though finishing is often thought of as having arrived. It’s so easy to get caught up in wondering about how things will turn out that we lose sight of getting started. Also, if you worry about failing, or coming up against obstacles along the way, this can deter you from even starting. But all of that is imaginary thinking because you only know what will really happen when you start moving towards your goal and deal with these challenges as you come upon them. “Even if you fall on your face you’re still moving forward.” ~ Victor Kiam This is true because if you’re afraid to fail you won’t make any progress and there is only progress or regress, there’s no...

We are constantly chasing success and get tired trying to achieve success. Do we ever sit down to define what success is? If we are able to define success, maybe then it sets a parameter for us to judge for ourselves if we are truly successful. Clearly, success that keeps us constantly happy should be lasting. The authors were interested in success that is sustainable – enduring success. They mentioned that “Lasting success is emotionally renewing, not anxiety provoking.” I agree with how they define success. It opened a new angle for me to look at success and how I can help some of my staff define success for themselves. This is especially important in an age where job satisfaction is falling and more and more talented executives get disgruntled with work. Maybe helping them define success would help increase their sense of achievement and happiness. It is complex to define success, but the authors broke enduring success into 4 components: Happiness: Feelings of pleasure or ...

"Success seems to be connected with action. Successful people keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don't quit."-- Conrad Hilton Successful people keep moving. Having researched so many leaders across the world, I note with great interest that the successful ones were and are the ones that keep moving. They don’t allow things good or bad to stifle them. They use ‘experiences’ to enable them to move into new heights. They have a framework to follow. They know each day the actions to which they must commit. They may slow down at times, but they don’t stop. I find having someone you can be accountable to is so helpful. They can bring challenge to you to keep moving during the tough times. As a mentor myself, I will often challenge people to keep moving forward, to keep growing themselves. I don’t think we can do this alone. As a famous proverb reads – Iron sharpens Iron. Those I have researched tend to have an ‘accountability partner/mentor/coach. Don’t run alone – ...

"There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure." -- Colin Powell How to feel ‘unstuck’ in life? I want to make various changes (job, relationships, own self) but I just don’t know where to even start to begin living the best life I can/could. This is the most popular question I get so thank you for asking. My advice is from my own experience. I know what that feeling is like. I know the unhappiness and frustration to feel stuck. I will share what helped me finally get unstuck in life. I hope you’re at a point where you’re willing to do whatever it takes. That means trying new things. That means getting out of your comfort zone. That means doing things differently. That also means having an open mind to take in advice from different sources then trying it for yourself. There’s nothing worse than someone thinking they know it all and being stubborn. If they did, then why are they stuck in life or running into the ...

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved." -- Helen Keller "Just because the houses look alike doesn't mean they have the same foundation." -- Kennedy Siaw In life if there’s something you want, you have to go and get it. No sitting around waiting for it to come to you. Sit too long and it’ll be gone. To achieve the life you want, it takes action. It’s time today to become a hustler in life. I am and you should do. In a private webinar I participated in Tuesday night (more on specifics later), they gave us homework. The homework for the week was to answer three questions. I’m suppose to answer them and share it with only the members of the group. Instead I want extraaccountablity and am going to share with you all. The reason is because I want you to know a little more of my story. I’m opening up to you. These are my hon...

"People who succeed have momentum. The more they succeed, the more they want to succeed, and the more they find a way to succeed. Similarly, when someone is failing, the tendency is to get on a downward spiral that can even become a self-fulfilling prophecy."--Tony Robbins It’s hard to get that momentum started. You know how hard it is to start something and see results. A new blog, a business, a fitness plan, or losing weight. It’s like a bit steam locomotive. When it’s at a standstill even a small piece of wood will keep it from moving. It takes a lot of steam to get the wheels moving slowly. Once it starts moving it gets into a rhythm. It slowly builds speed over time. Soon it’s up to 60 mph or more. By then it’ll run right through almost anything. I didn’t know but momentum was starting to build up. Momentum is Worth the Hard Work Certainly momentum wasn't the only factor to my success. I set a goal. I knew why I was doing this. I changed my habit...

TOLERATE AMBIGUITY Breakthrough ideas are not always the result of a revolutionary Eureka moment. On the contrary, they are often the result of an evolutionary series of approximations or failed experiments. When Thomas Edison was asked how it felt to fail 800 times before coming up with tungsten as the filament for the light bulb, his answer was a revealing one. “Fail?” he said. “I didn’t fail once. I learned 800 times what didn’t work.” Edison had the ability to tolerate ambiguity — to “not know.” Like most breakthrough thinkers, he had the ability to dwell in the grey zone. Confusion was not his enemy. “Confusion,” explained Henry Miller, “is simply a word we have invented for an order that is not yet understood.” If you are attempting to birth a breakthrough idea, get comfortable with discomfort. Give up your addiction to having all your ducks in a row — at least in the beginning of your discovery process. People may think you’re a quack, but so what? Your chances...
