Operation Reinvention Without a Plan
Operation Reinvention Without a PlanLast year I made a decision that changed everything about my life.And no, when I began "Operation Reinvention," I didn't have much of a plan. I wouldn't say I was winging it, but sometimes you have no idea what kind of plan you need. What I did have was a mindset. I wondered - "What single change can I make - a change that would automatically and positivity disrupt everything in my life and put me in a better place?"I followed that with…"I don't know what it's going to be, but it's not going to be that!"While I didn't know exactly how to get there - or even that 'there' was, I knew I would recognize it when I saw it. Goals are cool. You should use them. Sometimes, you must follow your gut, go with the flow, and figure things out along the way. What change can YOU make that would automatically, and positively disrupt everything in your life and leave you in a better place? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Instant Better Communication
Instant Better CommunicationWhat if three words could allow you to communicate better and reach your goals faster? Here’s how to stay on track no matter who wants to pull you off course:1) When others ask to help them reach their goals, it’s time to agree and defer. For example, say, “Yes, I can help, AND let’s talk about it later when I finish what I’m doing. Watch how folks leave you alone.2) Inserting the word ‘Yet’ into any conversation will allow you to stay positive and keep your momentum. For instance, saying “Not yet. I’ll let you know when I’m ready” will do wonders.Success and happiness arrive when you stay focused and on track chasing your goals. Prioritize yourself and defer to others.

Learn. Churn. Burn. Earn.
Learn. Churn. Burn. Earn. I was chatting with a friend about his business a few years ago. He owned a struggling martial arts school and was crafting a master plan to grow in the coming year. Based on my that every worthy goal requires learning, churning, burning, and earning - I had four questions:1) How long do you think it will take to LEARN what it takes to succeed?2) How long are you CHURN away while you work to reach your goal?3) Do you have resources to BURN? How long will your money last while you move forward? 4) When will you EARN your reward for your hard work? Be prepared before you begin. Consider those questions before you start. The journey may be longer than you think. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Success People Know This
Success People Know ThisMark Cuban is a pretty successful guy with some good advice:“Work like someone is working 24 hours a day to take it away from you. “It’s not the dreaming; it’s the doing. If you spend your time dreaming, you will never grant yourself the opportunity to see what you are capable of accomplishing.”“It doesn’t matter if the glass is half-empty or half-full. All that matters is that you are the one pouring the water.”“Wherever I see people doing something the way it’s always been done, the way it’s supposed to be done, following the same old trends, well, that’s a big red flag to me to go look elsewhere.”“Every no gets closer to a yes. “No’s” are part of your story. If you keep working hard, they will lead to many “Yeses,” which often become better opportunities.”Good stuff. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Proven Success Mindset
Proven Success MindsetHave you ever wondered how the most successful people in the world get that way?Could it be their timing is right? Do they "know" somebody? Luck? That's it. They get lucky!Maybe, but I think there is more to it.Every person I've ever known who achieved remarkable success did three things:1) They recognized what they wanted and envisioned themselves living that life.2) At some point, they commit and go all in. Their dream IS going to happen. There is no "Plan B." 3) They practice never-ending flexibility and perseverance no matter what gets in the way. They keep going until they get what they want.Yes, it seems that you must pay the price for living the life of your dreams - and it's not money. It's YOU! Learn more about your ad choices.

Live Your Passion Starting Now
Live Your Passion Starting NowAre you aware of your passion? If not, I have a question for you -What do you do when you are doing YOU? Why spend your days searching your mind to figure out your purpose when you are most likely living it daily?When you take a minute to inventory how you spend your time, you will see what you enjoy doing.Do you read, write, exercise, or work? How about walking, talking, playing, fighting, laughing, or watching television? Do you quilt, garden, volunteer, or socialize? Passion in life is not about finding something to do. It's about noticing what you do naturally - and doing more of it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Focusing on Positive Self-Talk
Focusing on Positive Self-TalkI've been listening to clients tell me the story of their life. I can't help but wonder why they keep beating around the bush.In journalistic terms, these folks are burying the lead. Instead of getting to the point, they begin with secondary details.How does this relate to improving your life?Many say, "I can't focus on anything." No. You are focusing on the wrong things.Sometimes I hear, "I can't get myself get moving." Truth? You are moving - in the wrong direction.They may say, "I don't have enough money!" No. You need more money.Don't get caught up in the unimportant yet dramatic parts of life. Focus on the cause of your challenges. The results will change automatically.
