Issue 85

Welcome!

I don't know about you, but 2009 is in full swing for me now. I will be speaking in Dallas and Phoenix this week, then San Antonio, Raleigh, Australia, Bangkok, Brunei and many other cities in the weeks to come. What takes me around speaking so much? I have this memory system that will AMAZE you! I mean BLOW YOUR MIND!
 
Have you ever seen the memory experts on television who can memorize 200 names in 20 minutes, a deck of cards faster than you can flip through them, 400-digit numbers or lists of words? Well...not only can I do these things, I can teach you how they do it! I will teach how you can increase your sales, business, productivity, confidence and grades when YOU tap into the hidden genius that you already possess!
 
I am holding a one-day class, open to the public, on February 12th in Dallas, from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. If you can't remember the names of everyone you meet, give speeches without notes, memorize chapters of books word for word, recall product knowledge or 100-digit numbers in a flash, then you MUST be here! Imagine having this genius ability inside of you and never discovering it! Unfortunately, that is what most people do. Don't be most people! See you Feb 12th in Dallas!

1. If You Had A Million Dollars by Ron White

I saw a movie a few years ago that had a very funny scene. One of the characters asked the other what he would do if he had a million dollars. He replied, "Nothing....if I had a million dollars, I would just relax all day long and enjoy myself." Another guy chimed in and seriously stated, "Hey, you don't need a million dollars to do that...just look at my cousin...he is flat broke and he doesn't do a thing but sit there all day long."

I think I laughed about that for an hour and it just caused me to smile again.

Although the line in the movie was a joke, it illustrates a truth of life. Whatever it is that you wish to do - do it! Don't wait! Seriously, why put off your dreams until tomorrow or until you get all your ducks in a row. Guess what? The ducks of life sometimes have a mind of their own and tend to wander a lot. You may never get all your ducks in a row.

I have been a professional speaker since I was 20 years old. When I was 27, I was speaking with a woman and she said, "I am 59 years old and by the time I am 65 I would like to have my Master's Degree and be working as a professional speaker." I looked at her perplexed as I inquired, "Why in the world are you going to wait until you are 65 and have a degree? I am 27 years old with no degree and I am speaking tomorrow!" You could tell that my statement shattered her reality and she had no response.

This woman was waiting to pursue her dream until everything was just perfect. Until she had everything that she thought she needed to ensure maximum success when in reality the greatest thing that she could have done is simply move in the direction of what she desires.

The greatest resistor of human dreams is the "If I had a million dollars" attitude. Individuals dream that if they had a million dollars, they could pursue their vision. No they wouldn't! If you don't pursue your vision when you are broke – when you grasp a million, you will create another reason why it isn't possible. Or if you are one of the few who would actually live their dreams if you had a million dollars, what is the probability that you are going to save a million dollars?

Ever heard this train of thought?

Once I get out of high school I am going to see the world and travel...
Once I finish college I am going to see the world and travel...
Once I get married I am going to travel with my spouse…
After our kids are older we are going to see the world and travel...
When our kids get out of high school we are going to see the world and travel...
As soon as we retire we are going to see the world and travel...
Now, I am out of school, kids are gone and I am retired – if I was younger and my health was better I would see the world and travel…

Don't wait...

Many questions of life are complicated and unclear. Yet, the question of if you should pursue your dream or what until you have a million dollars is as clear as the waters of Fiji. You are not promised tomorrow. You are not promised a million dollars. Pursue your dream today and inch closer or it will remain equally as distant as the pages of your life near the final chapter.

-- Ron White

2. Quotes of The Week

Change/Choice

"We generally change ourselves for one of two reasons: inspiration or desperation." -- Jim Rohn

"The time is always right to do what is right."-- Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Be prepared to reinvent yourself every year. Imagine starting over with no limitations or encumbrances." -- Brian Tracy

"Whatever your present situation, I assure you that you are not your habits. You can replace old patterns of self-defeating behavior with new patterns, new habits of the effectiveness, happiness, and trust-based relationships." -- Stephen Covey

"There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction." -- Winston Churchill

"Today changes must come fast; and we must adjust our mental habits, so that we can accept comfortably the idea of stopping one thing and beginning another overnight... We must assume that there is probably a better way to do almost everything. We must stop assuming that a thing which has never been done before probably cannot be done at all." -- Donald M. Nelson

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." -- Mohandas Ghandi

"What the caterpillar calls the end, the rest of the world calls a butterfly." -- Lao Tsu

 

3. Leading Change by Dr. John C. Maxwell

Leadership is about change. If you need no change, you need no leader. In times of change, people seek out more and better leaders. Those successful sought-out leaders embrace the following thought: "The best reformers the world has ever known are those who began with themselves."

Mahatma Gandhi said, "We must be the change that we envision." Tolstoy said, "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself."

The following comments are about personal change:

1. One person cannot change another person.
When I started as a young leader, I thought that a leader could change the people; and boy, did I work at it. I said, "All right, I'm going to give them thoughts, ideas, and principles; and I'm going to change people."

After several years, I awakened to the thought that the only person who can change himself or herself is himself or herself. You can change yourself, but I cannot change you. You see, I am responsible to you but I am not responsible for you; and there is a world of difference between those two. I am responsible for teaching you good leadership, I am responsible for sharing things that can help add value to your life; but you are the only one who can take responsibility to change yourself, and that is what this whole article is about.

2. Most people need to look at the way that they look at change.
How many times have you heard somebody say, "I sure hope things will change." The only way things will change for me is when I change. It has nothing to do with hope. You can't just say, "Well, I just hope things will change around me," and expect results. The only way that things will change for me is when I change.

I have also heard this before, "I don't know why I'm this way." Well, you are the way you are because that is the way you want to be. Let's expose it for what it really is.

3. When you make the right personal changes, other things begin to turn out right.
So when people say, "I'd like things to turn out better for me, I'd like things to turn out right, I'd like things to turn out better in the organization, or in my family," I say to them, "Start by making personal changes."
