Model Your Way to the Top – Turn your Passion into profits

When you model someone is who is playing a bigger game than you, you expand your world and look through new eyes. By reading about others who have achieved the kind of success that you seek, you’re likely to find yourself there. At the very least, Chris Howard says, you will find yourself in a whole new playing field. What you chose to do when you get there is up to you.

My advice? Get a role model. Get many. Think bigger. Think broader.

And start turning your passion into profits, right now.

Today's must-read - three cups of tea

Three Cups of Tea: One Man’s Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time

by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin

Some failures lead to phenomenal successes, and this American nurse’s unsuccessful attempt to climb K2, the world’s second tallest mountain, is one of them. Dangerously ill when he finished his climb in 1993, Mortenson was sheltered for seven weeks by the small Pakistani village of Korphe; in return, he promised to build the impoverished town’s first school, a project that grew into the Central Asia Institute, which has since constructed more than 50 schools across rural Pakistan and Afghanistan. Coauthor Relin recounts Mortenson’s efforts in fascinating detail, presenting compelling portraits of the village elders, con artists, philanthropists, mujahideen, Taliban officials, ambitious school girls and upright Muslims Mortenson met along the way. As the book moves into the post-9/11 world, Mortenson and Relin argue that the United States must fight Islamic extremism in the region through collaborative efforts to alleviate poverty and improve access to education, especially for girls. Captivating and suspenseful, with engrossing accounts of both hostilities and unlikely friendships, this book will win many readers’ hearts.

Good thoughts bear good fruit

"Every thought-seed sown or allowed to fall into the mind, and to take root there, produces its own, blossoming sooner or later into act, and bearing its own fruitage of opportunity and circumstance. Good thoughts bear good fruit, bad thoughts bad fruit." - As A Man Thinketh

Happiness is a decision

Success and Happiness is a feeling every human being on this planet desires in their heart of hearts. And yet most of us look for happiness in all the wrong places and end up causing ourselves more suffering.

This is because we are looking outside of ourselves for some thing or some one to bring us that feeling.

To build the life you want, create the work you love

To Build the Life You Want, Create the Work You Love : The Spiritual Dimension of Entrepreneuring (Paperback)

by Marsha Sinetar

"appeals to the entrepreneurial spirit in this inspirational tome"

"The author's "spirituality" of entrepreneuring amounts to a popular Confucianism for twenty-first-century capitalism. This does not mean that Sinetar introduces readers to Chinese religion (though she does cite the I Ching) but rather that she defines spirituality as an embrace of roles necessitated by one's position within a social and economic system that has taken on a covertly religious significance.

Spirituality is a matter of embracing who one is and being where one is in the context of an economic system that is market driven and incapable of generating enough "jobs" in a conventional sense to go around."

"Well written, powerfully concise and to the point. For anyone who has been or is in a career transition, in the midst of finding and/or creating a business of their own, for anyone who has been looking for the "answer" in what to do next and how, for anyone who has been exploring and trying all kinds of stuff but hasn't found "that thing" that you can call fulfilling work - READ THIS BOOK!"

The Success Cycle

More from Lora at The Coach Approach - this time on Tom Ferry

Tom's Success Cycle

Step Number One: FEEL GOOD. That's right. FEEL GOOD.

There are three components of FEEL GOOD.

They are

(1) self-talk- notice what you are saying to yourself;

(2) focus - focus is determined by the questions you are asking yourself in your self-talk; and

(3) physiology - use your body to get into an empowered state.

Step Number Two: What follows from Step #1 is an "Extraordinary Attitude." When you have a great attitude, you have a more positive impact on other people. Need help getting into an extraordinary attitude? Here are a few tips, use your physiology and/or ask yourself these three questions:

What do I absolutely love about my life?
What am I grateful for?
Who can I serve today?

Step Number Three: From attitude comes inspired action. Inspired action is different from just being in action. Notice if you have a pattern that is supporting you or stopping you. Create positive energy in your environment with your extraordinary attitude. Vision and values plus patterns and work ethic = success.

Step Number Four: Finally, all three steps lead to Extraordinary Results which put you right back to "FEEL GOOD."

So that's the success cycle and as a working mom, I just have to add that in our planning session on Friday morning I captured a great nugget and I want to pass it on because I know so many of you are working parents. I am planning on it making a difference in my own success going forward. And here it is, so simple and so brilliant:

"Create a morning routine that empowers you." Your morning sets the tone of your whole day. If you begin in a funk or chaos or in victim mode because of circumstances, it is hard to expect a lot of your day. Tom encourages us to establish a routine which for him includes exercise, journaling, setting intentions for the day, rewriting our goals and the things we are grateful for and putting our body into an empowered state.

Now that is simple and a tall order at that same time. I can't wait to try it.

manners
