You Already Know What To Do

I went in for my regular teeth cleaning today and while I was there I had a few thoughts that I wanted to share today.

When you go to the dentist what is the question that the hygienist always asks you? Well they always ask me if I've been flossing and I always answer no! I know that I need to floss everyday and I know that flossing helps to prevent gum disease. Yet, when I get there I always have the same answer. How insane is that?!?!

To make a long story short, what would happen if we simply did those things that we already know we should be doing? How would our personal, professional or even spiritual lives be different?

Watch below to hear the rest of my thoughts.

It's Not Them, It's you!

You are the one. I am the one.

No this blog is not about the Matrix. It's about taking responsibility. I've found that it's far to easy to spend a ridiculous amount of time being consumed with what other people are or aren't doing. Complaining about a boss that is incompetent or lacks leadership is easy. It is very easy to complain about an employee that seems lazy or uninspired. Maybe your downline expects you to do all the work and they will just sit back and reap the rewards.

Go deep into your mind and think about those people that you love to complain about. How much does your complaining change them? How much does your complaining to YOURSELF or OTHER PEOPLE help to facilitate change? The bottom line is that you can't change them but you can change yourself. The even better news is that sometimes they will become inspired by YOU and will change THEMSELVES!

Plan to Succeed

Do you find yourself constantly running and doing but not really accomplishing anything? Do you get to the end of your day and wonder what happened and where all the time went? If you look back over the last year do you see progress or are you in about the same place?

If that doesn't sound like you then I congratulate you but it definitely describes a lot of my days and the general direction of my life for a long time. After making a simple change I found that I had more hours in the day! Well that's not exactly true but I was able to accomplish more with the same amount of hours.

Imperfectly Perfect

If you're like me you may suffer with a touch of perfectionism. It effect everyone differently but for me it tends to lead to procrastination or projects that are turned in late and sometimes unfinished. In my striving for perfection I tend to run from imperfection. I've come to realize that a lot of it is just in
my head. I'm much harder on myself than anyone else is!

Does that sound like you? Do you struggle meeting the high expectation you've set for yourself? Checkout the video below for some of my thoughts on dealing with this issue of perfection or imperfection.

Book Review: The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth

Somehow I was able to reach the very end of my 20s and not read ANYTHING by John C. Maxwell. Sure, I had heard his name mentioned in the area of leadership and knew he was an authority in that realm but still hadn't read anything of his. Recently I decided--because of my long commute--to get back into the habit of listening to audio books. As I was looking for something worthwhile I came across John C. Maxwell's The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth. I did not realize this was his latest book, nor did I realize that it would affect me so profoundly and be the catalyst for the new journey of my life.

First let me say that while the audio version is amazing and John's voice quite soothing, if you are really serious about implementing the principles in this book you will need this in print. The book follows what seems to be Maxwell's pattern in that it gives a numbered list followed by details regarding each of those aspects. As with any list this large there are some areas that may seem to overlap or be redundant. Admittedly, this was annoying at first, however, I later began to use this as a way of reinforcing the ideas. Each chapter gives practical ways to implement the law that it discusses and really the book is intended to promote action, not simply be read. The author himself suggests implementing a chapter per week.

In summary, I would say that the biggest help to me in this book is the idea that personal growth is not automatic. It must be intentional. If you are serious about getting started in the area of personal growth I can't recommend this book enough. Get the printed copy, a highlighter, a notepad and intentionally get to work on your growth journey.

Since this book impacted me so greatly, I am going to do a blog series that goes through each of Maxwell's 15 laws and hopefully give you incentive to read the book and get started on your own journey. Stay tuned!
