Go After What You Want to Achieve With Gusto


Go After What You Want to Achieve With Gusto
“One of the saddest lines in the world is, ‘Oh come now –
 be realistic.’ The best parts of this world were not
fashioned by those who were realistic. They
were fashioned by those who dared to
look hard at wishes and gave
them horses to ride.”
Richard Nelson Bolles, author

As I see it. . . . . . . .
Go after what you want to achieve with the gusto

Don’t sit and wait for success to drop into your lap. No surprise here it won’t. If you want success bad enough . . . . you have to go for it with gusto to create it.

Choose to push your envelope . . . . step out of your comfort zone . . . . and pursue your goals and dreams with gusto.

Don’t settle for the status quo . . . . as the status quo becomes a dead end street that moves your career in the wrong direction.  It also greatly reduces the likely hood of achieving your goals and dreams. The status quo may seem like it’s a safe zone at the time but in reality the status quo . . . .  becomes the silent killers of careers.

To step forward in your career with a purpose you have to be willing to step outside of your comfort zone . . . . and to stretch your limits to new heights.

Success doesn't come to you . . . . the success that you want has to be worked for.

When you want to achieve your goals and dreams you have to be willing to go after them with gusto . . . .  to stretch yourself . . . . and do what others can’t or won’t do.

Think and step out of the box of your comfort zone . . . . look for a creative direction and solutions.

Once you have a direction  . . . . go after what you want to achieve with gusto . . . .

Agreeing Can Lead You Down The Path of The Status Quo


Agreeing Can Lead You Down The Path of The Status Quo
“We find comfort among those who agree with us –
growth among those who don’t.”
Frank A. Clark, Author, writer
 
As I see it. . . . . . . .

Agreeing can lead you down the path of the status quo  

To stretch yourself you have to stretch your assumptions . . . . your beliefs . . . . and your mind. You have to move yourself out of your comfort zone and into realm of boundless possibilities.

If the people that are around you continually are agreeing with . . . . you they may be leading you down the wrong path the path way of the status quo. No one who ever played in the major leagues has ever had a 1000% batting average over their career. And No NFL quarterback has ever completes 100% of their passes over the length of a season.

People around you may be excellent at what they do but they are not perfect. So it becomes very unlikely that you are flawless in your thinking and in your actions. There is always room for personal growth and become better at what you do.

It’s far better to be surrounded by people who challenge you and are willing to look past the status quo and challenge your assumptions of today and to stretch your thinking to what can be possible.

It’s not a question of being perfect in the things you do . . . . it becomes a question of growing and continuous improvement in what you do.

Continually agreeing with you won’t make you better . . . . it keeps you locked in the status quo . . . . and in the no growth zone.

Being surrounded by yes people and people that blindly agree with you will not stretch you or your thinking. You will become stuck in the world of the status quo. Remaining in the status quo won’t make you or the people around you better . . . . you remain on the land of self-denial.

Evaluate your situation; listen to the comments both pro and con and make the decisions on the best way to make progress . . . . and to move forward.

Agreeing can lead you down the path of the status quo, if you want to breakout of the status quo breakaway from limiting thinking and those around you who are unwilling to challenge you and your thinking.

Spread Your Wings and Leave Your Comfort Zone


Motivational Power Quote

Spread Your Wings and Leave Your Comfort Zone
If you’re growing we’re always going to be out
of our comfort zone.”
John C. Maxwell, Leadership Expert and Author  


As I see it. . . . . . . .

Spread your wings and leave your comfort zone

Spreading your wings takes an act of courage . . . . and a leap of faith on your part . . . . to leave the safety of your comfort zone behind you. Take that leap of faith and be lifted into . . . . a new world of personal growth and new possibilities.

With faith you will feel the air under your wings . . . . and find yourselves being lifted out of your current world of the status quo into and . . . . a new realm of possibilities.

The moment that you feel the air under your wings you may experience a flash of hesitation about leaving your comfort zone.  At that very instance is where you have the capacity to . . . . change your life forever.

You can close your wings and stay in your comfort zone . . . . and let your tomorrows become the mirror image of your past. Or you can put your faith in yourself to create a brighter future. Let the air lift you . . . .  into the world of new possibilities and personal growth.

Spread your wings and leave your comfort zone . . . . and soar with the eagles.

You where meant to fly and reach great heights. But you and you alone is the only person that . . . . can open your wings and learn to fly.

Spread your wings . . . . out of your comfort zone and you will change the view of your world.

Live Your Dreams . . . . Not You Fears


Motivational Power Quote 

Live Your Dreams . . . . Not You Fears
“Too many of us are not living our dreams
because we are living our fears.”
Les Brown, motivational speaker  

 
As I see it. . . . . . . .

Live your dreams . . . . not you fears

Live a life of your dreams and what can be . . . . Be a seeker of possibility.

Be a person that thinks in the terms of possibilities and open you mind to think in spectrum of what can be possible when many people are thinking in reverse of what use to be. Be a possibility thinker and live in the future and you will find a way to live your dreams.

A possibility thinker stretches their mind . . . . And as a result will increase their reach. The possible thinker is a dreamer and they fulfill their dreams by stepping away from the status quo.

The possible thinker will stretch their limits and unleash their potential and a promise of a better tomorrow.

In pursuing you possibilities you will have to release your fears and step away from the security your comfort zone and step into the possibility zone.

Your future is what you make it . . . . the breakthroughs in life are in the possibility zone, release your fear and move into the possibility zone.

Live a life of possibilities not of fear . . . . and you will live your dreams . . . . . Not your fears.

Rise Above the Masses


Motivational Power Quote


Rise Above the Masses
“One can never consent to creep
when one feels an impulse to soar.”
Helen Keller, author  


As I see it. . . . . . . .

Rise above the masses

Dare to be great and to achieve your fill full your full potential.

Rise above the masses do a little more than expected of you. Do it better then you have in the past push yourself to move above the masses.

When there is there mountain to climb prepare yourself for the climb and start your journey with a commitment to reach the top.

Make today a day the day that you go a little farther and reach a little higher. With each step you take you separate yourself from the masses. As you separate yourself from the masses the air will lift you and begin to soar. 

Daring to be great is to step away from the status quo and to push yourself and your limits to become better then you were yesterday. With continued incremental improvement you will move from where you are today and to rise above the masses and standout.

Motivational Power Quote

Your World is in Your Hands and in Your Actions

The act of stretching is the first action that expands your horizon and your opportunities.

Doing the Impossible Takes a Little Longer

Motivational Power Quote

Doing the Impossible Takes a Little Longer
“The only way of finding the
limits of the possible
is going beyond them
into the impossible.”
Dr. Phil Earramehe Ph.D.

As I see it. . . . . . . .


Doing the impossible takes a little longer


Doing of the things that we take for granted today were once considered to be impossible. They were impossible until someone challenged the status quo of old beliefs and found a way to turn what was impossible into realty.


Step outside your comfort zone and stretch your limits. Once you stretch your limit they never return to there original size.


Turn the impossible into your possibilities.


Doing the impossible takes a little longer and become possibilities when you stretch your limits and try.

Push Your Limits

Motivational Power Quote

Push Your Limits
“In each of us are places where
we have never gone,
only by pressing the limits
do we ever find them.”
Dr. Joyce Brothers


As I see it. . . . . . . .

Push your limits


We only find our boundaries by pushing our limits.


We live in our comfort zone and by remaining there we will never get more then we currently getting. By staying with the status quo of our comfort zone there is the likely hood that we will digress and lose ground.


We grow by stretching our limits.


It’s only when we step outside our comfort zone do we find ourselves stretching our boundaries and reaching for new heights.


It takes courage to step out of our boundaries and press our limits, when we do we find our true self.


As we press our limits we will find that we have been working within self imposed limits. Once we push of limits we remove all boundaries and our opportunities become unlimited.


Make the commitment and the choice to push your limits.


We will find that when we push out limits we will see our world through new eyes and there will be a paradigm shift in what becomes possible for us.
