Living Your ALL IN Life
Living Your ALL IN LifeI want to become the person I am meant to be.That’s something that I hear daily in my life from people all over the world. Frankly, beyond living a joyful life, I can’t think of anything more important than growing to become who you know you are on the inside.Most people tend to work in different areas of their life. All will say that family and friends are the most important, but they tend to focus on their career and legacy - especially after the kids move out. But here is a problem…For many years, most people, including myself, tended to get lost in developing specific areas of their lives while others were on hold. While outwardly successful, they wouldn’t be on the phone with me if everything was going perfectly. It’s not, it’s hit or miss, and that is causing sleepless nights.A solution is an ALL-IN approach to living.Over time, I’ve developed the solid belief that whatever you deem as the ultimate best use of your life will only happen after you have evolved every area of your life - and do it every day.Focusing on your business and achieving success at the highest levels only happens when the other areas of your life are balanced.Raising your children to be the best can only happen when the other areas of your life balance.Developing your spiritual being will only happen at a deeply satisfying level when all other areas of your life are balanced.In other words, you will only achieve your personal best when your body, mind, relationships, and finances are working in synchronicity to support your journey: any other strategy is hit or miss. The goal is simple.Every day you should do something to develop, maintain, and grow every critical area of your life. It doesn’t have to be big, but it does have to happen. No, things won’t be perfect every day, but it’s incredible how all those imperfect days add up to a pretty good life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Find Your Passion - Be Yourself
Find Your Passion - Be YourselfA few years ago, I recognized that many folks are unaware of how to find their real passion. I often ask this question."What do you do when you are doing YOU?" I usually hear crickets. Lots of crickets.Most folks spend their days figuring out their purpose and passion - when it's usually right in front of them. All you have to do is look at how you spend your time, and you'll see what you enjoy.Do you read, write, exercise, work, walk, talk, play, fight, laugh, watch television, quilt, garden, volunteer, socialize, or love doing something else? That's a clue.Pay attention to how you spend your time. It is serving you in some way. Could it be that you've already found your passions? Learn more about your ad choices.

The cycle continues for personal growth and change.
