How do you “show up” in life?

Positive Thinking word collageHow do you “show up” in life?

What I’ve noticed about myself and my friends, is that The Way You Do Anything Is The Way You Do Everything!

When you are in touch with your passion, you become full to overflowing with a kind an exuberance that affects everything in your life. It uplifts others as well. When you are in that kind of state, you feel ALIVE! Everyone knows what this feels like, but few live in that space on a regular basis.

Start making a conscious effort to notice your emotional state through the day, and what moods characterize you the most. For example, when you are at some sort of gathering, be it a work meeting, a social group, a class, etc….

Do you tend to daydream and get sleepy / uninterested? Or do you participate with a lot of energy? Do you tend to be late, on-time, or early? Do you interact with others and get to know them, or stay quiet and isolated in the midst of people?

We all have different personalities. We are all unique. Whatever our characteristics are, we tend to bring that same characteristic into everything we do.

There isn’t a “right” or a “wrong” way to be. However, if what you do is causing you some kind of suffering, such as loneliness, isolation, or conflicts, then notice what you are doing. See that it affects everything in your life, and make some adjustments as needed.

Assume It Is True

When you start a new venture, assume you will be the “Greatest”, even the “World’s Greatest”. Don’t just say the words – feel it in your bones and know it is true. The bigger your vision, the bigger your actions become to meet the vision.

Stan Lee of Marvel Comics, headshotA great example of this is Stan Lee, co-creator of Marvel Comics including the Fantastic Four and Spider Man. With issue 4, The Fantastic Four became “The Greatest Comic Magazine in the World!!”.  On the cover of the previous issue, number 3, Stan changed the slogan on the banner to “The World’s Greatest Comic Magazine!”. This became a fixture on the issue covers into the 1990’s, and on numerous covers in the 2000’s.

The point is: He assumed it to be true before it was true, and it came true.

How about you? What do you assume about whatever you involved in – be it writing, speaking, parenting, running a business, performing, being an athlete, or anything else?

If you’ve just “never thought about it,” be aware that, unconsciously, you HAVE been assuming something – what is it? Take time to notice casual remarks you make to yourself and others, such as “Wow – I did a great job! I’m really good at this!!” Or the opposite: “I can’t get anything right. I’ll never be any good.”

Getting to the point where you can SAY “I am the Greatest” and BELIEVE it may take a while, but really this kind of shift can happen in an instant. By getting in touch with what you feel your mission in life is, and tapping into your passion, you become empowered to cut through limiting beliefs that hold you back.

Not Urgent But Important

 

President Dwight D. Eisenhower on 8 cent stamp

 

What have you been focusing on today?

How do you spend your time?

Former US President Eisenhower is quoted as saying
“WHAT IS IMPORTANT IS SELDOM URGENT
AND WHAT IS URGENT IS SELDOM IMPORTANT”

Why is this concept so important?

Because unless you spend your life focusing on things that are NOT URGENT but IMPORTANT, your life is doomed to be one of mediocrity.

 

In the book “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” DR. Stephen Covey broke this concept into 4 zones in which people spend their time:

Zone 1 URGENT and IMPORTANT – such as a crisis
Zone 2 URGENT and NON IMPORTANT – such as interruptions
Zone 3 NOT URGENT but IMPORTANT – such as preparing a will
Zone 4 NOT URGENT and NOT IMPORTANT – such as searching the internet

According to Covey, most people tend to spend their time in ZONE 4 – Not Urgent and Not Important!  This is a set up for a MEDIOCRE life!

The most SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE spend the largest percentage of their time
in ZONE 3 – Not Urgent but Important!

I hope that this has inspired you to pick something you have been putting off from ZONE 3  and do it now.

What do George Clooney, Della Reese, Gary Busey, Barbara Mandrell, Bob Woodward, and Fantastic Frank Johnson have in common?

George Clooney, Della Reese, Gary Busey, Barbara Mandrell, Bob Woodward, and Fantastic Frank Johnson have all had some form of a brain injury.

artistic rendering of a tree shaped like a human head with leaves missing and flying away from half of foreheadGeorge Clooney, was filming a torture scene for the movie “Syriana” in 2005, when the chair he was strapped to was accidentally kicked over. When he fell backwards, his head was hit so hard that brain fluid leaked out of his nose. He suffered short-term memory loss from the accident.

Della Reese, had a hemorrhagic stroke in the middle of singing Pieces of Dreams on Johnny Carson’s Tonight Show in 1979. An aneurysm burst in her brain, bringing her to her kneed and then unconscious on stage.

Gary Busey, had a serious head injury in 1988 during a motorcycle accident. He was not wearing a helmet. A friend saved his life by pressing on a hole in his head until help arrived. After a critical operation that night, couldn’t talk, walk, or swallow.

Barbara Mandrell, suffered a head injury during a 1984 car accident in which her two children were told at the scene that she was dead. The 19 year old driver of the other car died. She wrote of her survival in her autobiography Get to the Heart: My Story.

Bob Woodward, suffered severe head injuries in 2006 from a roadside bomb, despite wearing a helmet. He was traveling with the Iraqi Army unit as a reporter.

Fantastic Frank Johnson suffered a traumatic brain injury when he was trapped in a fire.

My point is that any one.. that is ANY ONE can become a member of the largest group of minorities in the United States at any time, which is people with disabilities. It does not have to be a brain injury, I just chose these celebrities because I can identify with every one of them!

Your Own Custom Song to Set You Apart

tiamo award

Tiamo holding L.A. Music Award for “Male Singer/Songwriter of the Year”

You can have your own Custom Song written and recorded for you by Tiamo De Vettori, L.A. Music Award’s “Singer/Songwriter of the Year.”

What would your own Theme Song do for your life and business? Not just putting different words to an existing song, but one written exclusively for you – original music, lyrics of your story, everything?

This is what Tiamo does. He is doing it for me, and he can do it for you!

I met Tiamo at a seminar in San Diego, where I met a woman referred me to Tiamo. Taking the bulls by the horn, saying “yes” to opportunity brought Tiamo and I together at a meeting while I was still on that trip.

To write a song for someone, Tiamo interviews them to find out what makes them tick. We talked about my life, what inspires me, my passions, and my heros.  From what I’ve seen so far, the song he is composing for me will encompass everything I have wanted it to.

I will keep you updated on when it will be released.

Lows and Highs – When to End a Relationship

red heart on white background

 One way to measure relationship issues is to take a look at the highs and lows. You can do this in every area of your life – friends, girlfriends, business associates, food, activities… everything.

There are a lot of different opinions on what a “healthy relationship” is, or when to end a relationship. A big red flag that you are not in a healthy relationship is if the “lows” are lower than the “highs” are high.

If this is the case, it may be time to get out! Otherwise, the lows keep getting lower, and you never quite hit those same highs, and eventually, that relationship will just eat you and your happiness and all of your potential right up.

Before you jump ship, here are some things that may turn things around:

1) Pay more attention to the highs and lows, so that you can notice triggers and take preemptive action before the fluctuation in the relationship is so extreme that it spirals out of control.

2) You can change you state by changing what you focus on. Visualize your situation getting better. You can use the Ho’oponopono prayer:

I am sorry
Please forgive me
I love you
Thank you

3) You can inform the person nicely that things are not going well, and you may want to use an intermediary person to assist you in communicating what is happening in the relationship.

4) Be honest with the person with whom you are having the challenges. If it is no longer working, they may also already have felt similar feelings of loss, and may be ready to leave or end the relationship as well. Don’t be surprised.

5) Use a mentor or higher confidant, who is immune to these kind of situations, and can thereby coach you, or role model for you, to be above this kind of petty and often destructive behavior.
