Kamjah .. The Chronicles

Well readers, I have family in town, and truthfully I can not think of any better reason at the moment to temporarily pull up the e-break.

With a the cutest little devil of a 5 year old running into my office every 5 minutes it’s hard not to give attention (see picture to get an idea…). Something about kids that bring the kid out in us. Maybe at some point in the future I’ll write a blog about what we all knew at 5 years old, but somehow forgot on our path toward ‘adulthood’.

Back to the point - my family will be here for a couple more days and after that my regular blogging will resume.

Make sure to stay tuned because my next article is going to go deep  outside the box to begin a series of stories detailing my trials and tribulations of starting my first company, and growing it into a sellable asset. This is a must read for all business owners, entrepreneurs, and even those looking for more insight into life. As always, you can expect it to come from a holistic aspect.

Until then my friends..

“If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change.”
Buddha

“You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what’s a life, anyway? We’re born, we live a little while, we die. A spider’s life can’t help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone’s life can stand a little of that.”
E.B. White - excerpt from Charlotte’s Web

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain

Have you ever had one of those days where you woke up in the morning and no matter what you did you just couldn’t ’snap’ out of it? It’s like you had a bad dream and it left you with a salty attitude to carry throughout the day. Sure you have, because we have all experienced at least one of those days. Today I am going to introduce you to something a little different. Instead of my typical blog post where I write and publish an article, this time I’m going to show you how to physically do something that when done right can adjust your attitude on command.

If you are in: sales, a business owner, entrepreneur, or work in any position where a positive outlook and attitude supports your job description and impacts your performance then you’ll find this technique extremely helpful.

When you are ready to experience the magic for yourself then follow the directions below. I’ve outlined them step by step. If you have any questions then contact me. Now here we go..

1. Find a comfortable place to sit, perhaps in a chair you like
2. Close your eyes
3. Take 5 deep breaths by inhaling slowly for 5 seconds and then holding for 3 seconds and exhaling for 5 seconds.
4. Now that you are relaxed, remember a specific time when you felt really happy. Now through your minds eye bring yourself back to that time, putting yourself in your own body, looking through your own eyes, seeing what you saw and hearing what you heard. Allow yourself to experience feelings of happiness. At this point you should at the very least be smirking since you are experiencing that positive experience again soyou can’t help but to smile.
5. As you feel these feelings mentally double them. As you are deeply reliving that experience in your mind go ahead and …
6. Take your left index finger and firmly press on your right index finger knuckle and hold it for 10 seconds while you are feeling those happy feelings.

That’s it! Now you’re done. Next time you are feeling upset, or need an attitude adjustment all you have to do is take you left index finger and press it against your left index finer knuckle and those feelings will come flushing back.

Something worth mentioning is that if you can’t remember the directions I provided on your own then it is perfectly fine to print out this page and have a friend or family member read the directions to you.

Congratulations! Because unless you have worked with me personally, you have just been introduced to a very basic NLP technique.

Let’s face it, everyone seems to have their arms up in a panic due to this economic crisis. As you know, all you have to do is turn on your local news and you will see for yourself, or even spend 15 minutes at your local coffee shop and listen to what people are talking about. Surprise…the economy. With that being said, what if I was to tell you that a down economy is nothing more than you falling victim to other people’s reality? Even further, what if I told you that it is possible to not only survive during these times but instead to actually prosper? Now that I have your attention, continue reading.

It’s true, on the surface the economy is a reflection of the current state of affairs regarding: Trade, Money, Credit and Collatorized Debt; but on a deeper and more meaningful level it is a power shift and reallocation of wealth. With that being the case there are people out there who prosper regardless of the economic condition.

If you find yourself concerned and are attributing your concern to this down economy then you may want to take a look at yourself and see if you are doing the right thing. Deep down you know what the right thing is and if you are ready to know the answer then the next step is to contact a coach who has the power to bring it out of you. Have you ever noticed how some businesses just keep on clicking away as if nothing is happening? Why is it that some businesses actually grow in down economies while their competitors go out of business? The answer is simple, but it’s one that is rarely welcomed.

Please allow me paint a picture for you. Take “Sheila” a computer programmer of 12 years. She earned $85,000.00 per/year and lived a comfortable life. Each day she arrived to work on time, left on time and did her job, but she was never really excited about any of it. One day she came into work and found out that she had been laid off. Another lamb to the slaughterhouse. Obviously she feels very confused, upset and angry and can’t help but wonder why; especially when Alice, who sat across from her working in a similar role got a promotion and a raise. This just can’t be right Sheila was thinking! Behind the scenes, the part that Sheila wasn’t aware of was that Alice comes into work each day excited, and on occasion was reminded by the accounting department to deposit her paycheck. What’s the difference between Sheila and Alice? I won’t leave you hanging on this one, so I’ll tell you. Sheila was working from a position of “capability.”  She proved she has a capability to complete college, a capability to earn a degree and a capability to land a job but what was missing was her job lacked a sense of true purpose. Alice, on the other hand, came into work each day from a position of passion and true purpose.

“The universe is a feedback mechanism…if you put half felt intention out there, half felt results are what you get back. Meaningful results require full effort backed by full intention and that only comes through acting out of a true sense of purpose. “

The moral of the story here is when you are living your life based on your terms and your calling then economic upturns and downturns become nothing more than a fact of life. If you see yourself living your life driven by purpose then you will also notice a lot of things naturally falling into place. I will also add, my promotion aside, that it is a simple fact that many of the best have coaches. Investing in a coach is a powerful way to discover and reinforce your purpose, as many successful and fulfilled people already know.

Find your purpose, run with it, shine, and then never worry about the economy affecting you again unless you choose to let it.
