Happy 2010! Best wishes, Coach A.
Somewhere between “Once upon a time” and “they lived happily ever after” is the rest of your life. Dieter Uchtdorf explores how you get from here to there in his book, “Your Happily Ever After.”
Your life might not have spindle pricks, poison apples, or frogs to kiss but I’m guessing you probably have your share of tough times and good times. But, if your life isn’t all roses, aren’t you doing something wrong?
Unfortunately, a lot of voices out there seem to put most of the blame on you if your life doesn’t include a free pass to Club Med. President Uchtdorf sends you and me a reality check:
“Sometimes we need a reminder that life was never all sunshine and roses for the fairy-tale princesses. ….each princess had to overcome adversity before she reached her happily ever after.”
Take heart when you seem to hit life’s hard spots, create a great support network, and keep your perspective set on using your experiences as stepping stones to your happily ever after!

How often do you brush your teeth (Zig’s motivation analogy)? Drink water? Give your body fuel?
Motivational products or presentations can be a lot like fireworks: spectacular, get you focused, and get you pumped-up and maybe even patriotic. But what happens when the fireworks fade from memory? Exactly.
Bruce Lee hit on something critical to motivation…Emotional Intelligence or your Intrinsic (Inner) Drive. It is NOT the same as emptying your mind and obeying whatever pops into it! Obviously a martial artist can’t do or learn his art if his/her mind is a blank slate. On the contrary, their minds are keenly trained with martial art skills, as are their bodies. So what is he talking about when he says “empty your mind” or “be like water” yet his motivational drive is through the roof?
I believe he means empty your mind of trash, useless goop, and misguided ego pursuits (etc., etc., etc.). Notice he said “be the water” rather than “go with the flow!”
Train and educate your mind with best always, then use it as water… a great dynamic resivoir of strategic knowledge and wisdom fine-tuned by discipline of your Emotional Intelligence able to strategically negotiate your journey, creating your own flow. In my practice, I call it Life Trekking Mental Toughness™ (www.LifeTrekkingCoach.com). As a Life Trekkingologist™ and Master Life Trekking Coach®, I find Bruce Lee’s unique Life Trekking™ fascinating!!
What do you think… Oh! But don’t think (clog your mind up with garbble), feel (discipline your Emotional Intelligence to focus on what really counts– and it’s not the latest hair color!). Here’s Bruce explaining in his own words…

If you’re like me and you subscribe to many professional newsletters to keep up on the latest buzz, you might have gotten a barage of info-pros’ emails about social media and why it’s working for some and a dead end for others. So how is social media for YOU?
LinkedIn is a big deal for people who want to be taken legitimately in the business, “I-am-expert,” world. What exactly are you supposed to do with your LinkedIn profile to jazz it up? OR, are you supposed to have it look like a glowing resume on the screen of someone’s monitor?
Here’s a dude with some easy ideas that made sense to me: CLICK HERE and come back to tell me what you think & what works for you on LinkedIn!

How’s your search for true wealth coming along?
How do you define your true wealth?
Some say true wealth is something akin to true happiness–
that is long lasting as opposed to fleeting. If that’s the case, then
Alan got it right:
“True Wealth is discretionary time .” – Alan Weiss
Have fun!
