Gotta Have It

Name a successful person in your network out loud. What is it that they possess that makes them a bit more productive or successful than others? How are they ahead of the game? What is it that they do that you don’t know about or need to do? What is it that they do that you don’t know about or need to do? These are important questions we must ask ourselves to make a difference. What does their agenda consist of? Every day we could be studying these people! We can learn about their habits, their profession and what they want in life. Write the questions you would like to ask them and make a call!

In order to be successful, it’s difficult to wing it but you have a guideline, the process is do able because you have a source that understands what it takes. That’s why I was honored to apprentice Dr. Thomas and his team. I saw firsthand, what it took, to design a small company that changes lives and takes care of one another. Most times, success is a basic equation and we complicate the entire message. Keep it simple, make life interesting and be a constant learner in the process. The day you learn and take life intentionally, is the start to your life long goals.

Ask questions, apply the new information to what you’re doing. Be bold, be different, in a way that helps you get to your goal and know that, nobody is going to give you what you desire.

You have to earn it.

Search, find and proceed with the process. It’s that simple. Pretend your mind is google and all you have to do is plug and chug your ideas, concepts and experiences to formulate this mastermind plan that evolves over time, through failed attempts, growth, lots of learning and and success. Ladies and gentlemen, it’s about what you do with the knowledge you create, receive and expand upon.

One of the constant questions you must ask should be, “Can I accomplish my goal without this set of circumstances? How do you win when you have to fight the enemy? What if your biggest enemy was inside of your mind? How would you conquer this enemy? Are you a great counselor to others but timid toward yourself? I’ve struggled with each of these questions in a previous life.

What you say to yourself is more important than most of what you hear. You’re the final nay or yay! It’s about how you treat yourself that matters. Not, what people say about you. What you believe

inside, you reap on the outside with the proper planning. What you think inside your head, reflects to the world what your thoughts really are. New outfits, won’t create a new person. It takes time to develop new habits, a new mindset and a new frequency. Beautiful homes, nice cars and the finest foods, are amazing to have but they won’t change you. These are materialistic luxuries that very few get to have. People bring up your past or think of you in a negative way, when you’re not around or even to your face but none of that matters.

You have too much to look forward to and enjoy! Never let your past define you. Let go of the past that holds you down. Forget about the past that has betrayed you. Throw all of the garbage that once brought you down away. Write your new plans down. Describe the details of your new plan! Ask yourself or a friend the questions your conscious is thinking. Make it happen, stop the voices within, that say it’s not possible by designing a plan from scratch that helps you. There will be people, institutions, and many who challenge your ideas. That is okay because your blueprint will reveal the truth overtime. They will try to define you and what you stand for but none of this matters if you channel the truth from within. The truth is that you have all the tools and understanding to make a great start to your new life.

Never be jealous about someone’s materialistic possessions or what they have, you and I don’t know everything they had to go through to receive what they have. If you truly knew the

heartaches, pain, tough situations and everyday calamities some people went through in the past, to be where they are today, you might say to yourself, “all this looks great but I’m going to pass on this.” You might even take another path to be somewhere else because what they do is tough and where you are currently at doesn’t give you the belief that you could do it. That’s the trick, are you willing to withstand the consequences of what needs to be done to have what you want? Will this make you successful? Will you truly be happy? These are questions you can ask before you make a decision. They won’t all reveal themselves at once, but if you understand yourself and want to be better, you have to do something new and make an impact. Make sure to study and apply what you have learned.
