The Test of Adversity

The Test of Adversity

“Adversity can test a person to their cord. What a person

does under the force of adversity will become a key

element for what direction that the person’s

life moves in.

Possible or Impossible is a Mindset

Motivational Power Quote

Possible or Impossible is a Mindset

“When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something

is impossible, he is very probably wrong.”

Arthur C. Clarke 1917 – 2008, English Writer

As I see it . . . . . . .

Possible or impossible is a mindset

What you believe stems from your thinking . . . . and your thinking becomes your reality and from that reality comes the foundation for your actions.

What is possible is in your thinking . . . . and when you believe that something is possible you will take on the task with expectation of having successful results. You will also go into the task with the self-confident which will put you on a solid footing to reach your objectives.

Conversely when you think something is impossible . . . . you will either be reluctant to start or procrastinate in attempting the task. The task will lack your full attention and your sights are focused on a negative outcome.

What is possible or impossible is a mindset . . . . and the outcome the person sees are polar opposite . . . . So what a person thinks becomes their reality . . . . and influences what they will and won’t try or do.

Visualize What You Really Want

Motivational Power Quote

Visualize What You Really Want

“Make sure you visualize what you really want, not what someone

else wants for you.”

Jerry Gillies, Former NBC Newsman, Workshop Leader,

Author

As I see it . . . . . . .

Visualize what YOU really want

The future is you’re to create . . . . but only You can determine what that vision is for yourself. You will meet people on your life’s journey that will become part of your vision of the future and they will become part of your journey.

But when it comes right down to it you have to visualize what you really want.

I meet many people who harbor resentment and anger . . . . because they have compromised their vision for their future to follow what someone else’s idea of their future should be.

There is always a risk in following your vision for the future . . . . however there is also a risk in following someone else’s vision for you.

Here’s the big difference when you follow your vision for the future . . . . you own it, you buy into it and your responsible for the outcome. Then when your following someone else’s vision for you . . . . and your life.

YOU greatly increase the chances of successfully achieving your vision for your future . . . . because you buy into it and you’re taking the personal responsibility for your results.

Visualize what you really want . . . . and go after it with a focused effort and determination.

We Will be Known For What we Do

Motivational Power Quote

We Will be Known For What we Do

“I always remember an epitaph in the cemetery at Tombstone Arizona. It says: Here lies Jack Williams ‘He gave his damnedest’.

I think that’s the greatest epitaph a man can have.”

Harry Truman 33^rd President of the United States

People will know us and remember us by what we do.

They will judge us by successfully meeting and exceed their expectations.

People don’t want talk they want us to do what we say we will do and do it when we say we will do it. They don’t want excuses or a story they want results.

We will be known for what we do . . . . and they will never forget what we didn’t do.

Statistics show that approximately 80% of business is being done either by word of mouth referrals or based on past business relationships. We will either earn our future business by giving our damnedest and wowing our customers or we lose the business with average service. 

We will be known for what we do and what we do will affect our career and business success.
