Master the Small Details

Motivational Power Quote

Master the Small Details

“Don’t be afraid to give your best to what seemingly are the

small jobs. Every time you conquer on it makes you that

much stronger.  If you do the little jobs well the big ones

 tend to take care of themselves.”

Dale Carnegie 1888 -1955, Self-Help Author, Lecturer  

As I see it . . . . . . .

Master the small details

Master the small details . . . . and you will become the master of your life.

Far too many people look and the small jobs and small details as being insufficient. It’s in doing the small jobs and details with excellence that you begin to master your life . . . . as you do you create the pathway of doing the big things in your life with mastery.

The difference between doing thing with excellence and creating mastery in your life comes down to making a choice.

You can choose to live a life of excellence and mastery . . . . or live a life of getting by.

The real difference between the two is you pay for mastery in your life in advance and reap the benefits.  Or you slide by . . . . by doing just enough to get by. And seems to be the easy path turns out to be a very expense toll road that keeps costing you forever.

Master the small details and the small jobs . . . . and you be in a position to master you life and the big thing that come into your life.

When You Have Specific Goals Everything Changes

Motivational Power Quote

When You Have Specific Goals Everything Changes

“I found that when you start thinking and saying what you

really want, then your mind automatically shifts and pulls

you in that direction. And sometimes it can be that simple

just a little twist in vocabulary that illustrates

your attitude and philosophy.”

Jim Rohn 1930 - 2009, Business Philosopher, Author, Speaker  

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

When you have specific goals everything changes

A specific goal is a . . . . defined goal that you can see, measure and you can explain in detail.

When your goals are specific . . . . the image that in your thinking become exact and you know with a sense of certainly what you want to achieve. Your target is clear and . . . . you’ll able to aim at it with the expectation of hitting the bull’s eye.

Your target may be moving and that’s to be expected . . . .

Your goals are your target and you may find that you will have to make some adjustments to hit your target . . . . and with those adjustment you will find your moving in the right direction to hit your target.

When you have specific goals everything changes . . . . you will find that you can focus on the important activities and you will make far better use of your time and energy to achieve your goals.

Courage is to Keep Trying

Motivational Power Quote

Courage is to Keep Trying

“Courage doesn’t always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice

at the end of the day saying, I will try again tomorrow.”

Mary Anne Radmacher, author  

As I see it . . . . . . .

Courage is to keep trying

Many times the easy way out is to walk away and to not try . . . . real courage is to keep trying and to overcome the conditions that are in front of you.

Many walk away and find themselves in a constant state of procrastination . . . . or in denial of the conditions and true facts.

It takes courage to come back day in and day out and to push to reach your objectives. Courage creates the persistence . . . .to try and try again to stay on purpose.

In trying you may find yourself coming up a little tattered . . . . but there is no success without trying and you can always dust yourself off.

The real courage is the quiet voice that’s inside you . . . .saying to keep going.

Courage is to keep trying . . . . and success comes as a result of your continuous efforts to move you in the right direction.

You Can Win When There’s Time Left in the Game

Motivational Power Quote

You Can Win When There’s Time Left in the Game

“Don’t give in at half time.

Concentrate on winning the second half.”

Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant 1913 – 1983, Football Coach

 

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

You can win when there’s time left in the game
 

Life is a lot like a game of football . . . . if there’s time left in the game you can win.

You may be at half time of your success journey and have found you have lost momentum . . . . and have fallen behind in the game of life and are losing ground.

A good football team will make their adjustments at half time . . . . to come back in the second half to win the game.

They will evaluate the conditions of the first half, and . . . . will make the adjustments to their game plan and strategies to maximize their efforts in the second half.

Our success journey is a lot like that football game. When you’re falling behind you have to adjust your game plan to regain your forward momentum. You have to . . . . adjust your strategies and to play to win

The differences between winning a football game and winning in life have seminaries and follow the same principals. You have to commit yourself to winning and . . . . play through any conditions that you find yourself in.  

You have to be willing to give an extra effort . . . . to put you over the top and if their time in the game we can win.

Winner never quit, they stay in the game and . . . . when there’s time left in the game you can win.

The Art of Decision Making

Motivational Power Quote

The Art of Decision Making

“Investment decisions or personal decisions don’t wait for

the picture to be clarified .”

Andrew Grove, executive  

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

The art of decision making

Many decisions have to be made on the fly . . . . they can’t wait for a team meeting or consensus.

The art of decision making is making the best decision your can . . . . with the information you have. Using the resources you have from where your standing.

The person that waits for the condition to clarify itself and to be just right . . . . will find that the decision has been made for them, by someone else. The person that makes the decision . . . . takes control of the condition while the  person who waits to make the decision . . . . loses control of the decision making process.

In many cases not making a decision will make the condition worst and . . . . will take far more resources to successful resolve the condition.

The art of decision making . . . . is to make the decision when it has to be made.

Lost Forever

Motivational Power Quote

Lost Forever

“Lost, yesterday, somewhere between sunrise and sunset two

golden hours, each set with sixty diamond minutes. No reward

is offered for they are gone forever.”

Horace Mann 1796 -1859, American Politician and Educator

As I see it . . . . . . .

Lost forever

Time can slip away . . . . and once it’s gone it’s lost forever.

You are blessed with 24 precious hours in your day to use in any way you please . . . . You can invest your day in positive activities that will bring value to your day and that will become the stepping stones to greater success in your future.

Or you can fritter away you time . . . . on busy work or putting off the important things that need to be done . . . . to sometime in the future.

Whatever your do with your day is a personal choice . . . . At the end of the day your time is lost forever never to return.

What will remain at the end of your day . . . . is the value of how you invested your time that day. A day invested in positive activities will be deposited into your annuity account. The days will accumulate and return long term value back to you.

A day where your time is wasted is lost forever . . . . A day invested in positive activities will return to you with dividends.
