“Your thoughts will drive your life and career. Positive

thinking will drive your life forward in a positive

direction and expands  your opportunities to

As I see it . . . . . . .

Your thinking creates the direction for your life.

You are molded by your thoughts . . . . and what you most often think about you become. In time you will become the person that’s in your thoughts.

When Something Needs to Be Started . . . . Just Do It

When Something Needs to Be Started . . . . Just Do It

When something needs to be started . . . . Just do it

When something needs to be started . . . . Start from where you are with . . . . with the tools you have and develop the rest along the way.  

Waiting to get started until everything is in place . . . . and you become inspired only generates procrastination . . . . Waiting doesn't create inspiration . . . . or get things done. Waiting puts your success journey into reverse.

Let other people procrastinate . . . . but not you . . . . Let other people talk about there going to do . . . . while your getting things done.

When something needs to be started . . . . Move in the direction of what needs to be done. With your first step in the right direction gets you started . . . . and your persistence keeps you moving forward.

A Breakdown is the Beginning of a Breakthrough

A Breakdown is the Beginning of a Breakthrough

“Sometimes a break down can be the beginning of a kind of 

breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a

traumatic this prepares you for a future of

radical transformation .”

Cherrie Moraga, Writer, Activist, Poet, Essayist, Playwright

As I see it . . . . . . .

A breakdown is the beginning of breakthrough

Every business . . . . and business model has a cycle . . . .

There is a cycle where it begins as an idea . . . .  and develops into a working model. Over the life of the business model it goes through series of adjustments and adapts to the changing market.

Then at some point the business becomes old and outdated  . . . . and there is a breakdown in the business model.

One of two things will happen . . . . One business will ride the business model into obscurity. The business will become uncompetitive and fade away from the business landscape.

Another business will be at the point of a breakdown of the business model . . . . and a beginning of a new business cycle. They will adjust their business model to remain competitive . . . . and leave the baggage of the old business model behind them.

A breakdown is the beginning of a breakthrough . . . . when it’s approached with an open mind and an attitude of possibilities.

Getting Things Done

“When it comes to getting things done, we need

fewer architects and more bricklayers.”

Colleen C. Barrett, President of Southwest Airlines  

As I see it. . . . . . . .

Getting things done

Talking about it doesn’t get it done . . . . talking is just a lot of conversation with no action.

Thinking about it without action . . . . won’t go very far in getting it done. In time your thoughts without action fade away . . . . and become a distant memory.

When you have a vision with a plan . . . . and want to get it done your on your way to getting it done. It will also take rolling up your sleeves . . . . and hard work to get it done.

When you want to get it done . . . .  commit yourself to the activities to successfully reach your objectives. Also commit yourself to a course of action . . . . and to stay on purpose. When your committed . . . . and have a plan to get it done you won’t become distracted by the obstacles that you may encounter.

Do what has to be done . . . . Make the efforts to keep you moving in the right direction . . . . and staying on course remaining focused on your desired outcome.

Getting things done takes a commitment of . . . . effort . . . . hard work . . . . time . . . . and patience’s.
