Flip on the Hero Switch!
Your HeroesFind the hero in you, and you find the heroes in your life. Who are the heroes from your youth? Now that you’ve “grown up,” who are your heroes? How do you feel while remembering them? Inspired? Motivated? Uplifted?How long did it take you to start feeling that way? – It was just in an instant, wasn’t it? The moment we remember our heroes, it is like flipping on a light switch, and we are inspired. If you are part of a team, family, or group the lacks inspiration: Flip on the hero switch! The hero in youPeople are inspired by heroes, and everyone has a hero within them. When you embrace your own superhero qualities, you will start to see hero traits in those around you. The more you focus on this, the more you will see. Peoplw will be inspired by you, and you by them. If you are not yet sure what your super power is, start by demonstrating these superhero “traits.” As you live them, more will be revealed. Superhero Trait #1 – Showing UpBy reading this, you have already demonstrated one very important characteristic of a superhero – you showed up! Ever notice that superheroes have an uncanny ability to arrive in the nick of time to prevent disaster or save a person’s life? Many of the most magical moments in life are possible simply because you are present. Superhero Trait #2 – Be Fully EngagedNow that you’ve shown up, the next superhero trait to demonstrate is to be fully engaged in life, in every moment. After all, Super Man wouldn’t show up, and then fail to catch Lois Lane as she is plummeting from a tall building! By fully participating in life, in everything you do, you magnify the possibilities to help other. Stay alert and open to newly emerging super powers, so that you can notice what resonates with you as you embark on your hero’s journey. It is different for each person. Superhero Trait #3 – Harness Your Unique PowerAs you get in touch with your unique power, you are obliged to harness that power to help others. You impact people’s quality of life and work every single day. Service to mankind is a superhero trait of the highest order. Pay it forward, and help the people in your life find the heroes within themselves. When this happens – you will have a totally different work experience than you are having right now. by Fantastic Frank Johnson PS – Do you need an Inspirational Speaker?

How do you “show up” in life?
How 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. by Fantastic Frank Johnson PS – Do you need an Inspirational Speaker?

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. A 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. by Fantastic Frank Johnson PS – Do you need an Inspirational Speaker?

Not Urgent But Important
What have you been focusing on today? How do you spend your time? Former US President Eisenhower is quoted as saying 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 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 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. George 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!

Lows and Highs – When to End a Relationship
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 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.

Exponential Personal Growth and Albert Einstein
There is a fantastic Albert Einstein quote on compound interest that can be applied to our lives so that personal growth becomes exponential growth. “Exponential growth” is when something explodes in size. This is what happens to the size of an investment (or debt) when interest is compounded over a number of years. Albert Einstein said: “Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it… he who doesn’t, pays it.” This axiom is a great fit for personal growth, in that taking a small step in the direction of moving your life forward will have big returns down the road. Likewise, taking a small step in a direction that degrades you can contribute to a downward spiral. Here are some very worthwhile “investments” that will “compound” personal growth in the upward direction:
1) Belief in your Goal. 2) Passion and Commitment 3) Surround oneself with the correct Resources 4) Perseverance 5) A big enough reason Why 6) A Never Give Up Attitude 7) Accountability Add to this list to make it your own! As you go through your day, take your steps with the awareness that they will compound your future. |
