Everything Counts By Jim Stovall

I’m a firm believer in the concept that we never do anything, good or bad, that we don’t get paid for. Some of the good things you may do may not be immediately or obviously rewarded, but I believe they will be; and if someone does something bad, it may seem—in the short term—that they’re getting away with it, but consequences are a universal law.

Act as if someone is always watching….

Everything we do matters in the grand scheme of things. There are some things that seem more critical than others, but if we will step back and examine it, we will realize that the crisis comes from our performance not external factors.

Detach From The Outcome By Corey Jahnke

Motivation

The guy says: “Hey, I’m doing my job! Why should I go the extra mile with customers? What has THE COMPANY done for me lately?”

I feel so bad for the guy. I know him personally. I have watched him and hundreds of people like him all throughout my 25 year career as a retail pharmacist. He sees everything in life as a quid pro quo equation. “I’ll only do for you if you do for me!” “Pay it forward? Baah!”

Shut Up And Listen! A Secret for Succeeding in Business By Beau Henderson

Motivation

The secret to building your client base & the success of your business

As a professional, an entrepreneur, or a small business owner, how do you become the go-to person in your field? The one most respected, trusted, and, ultimately, the one making the most money?

The principals of prosperity economics teach that one person’s success does not need to be achieved at the expense of another’s.

This goes against what most of us have been taught – that in order for me to win, you must lose. Often times, the “losers” are the very people whom we are trying to reach, either for sales opportunities or as potential clients, yet we are taught to treat them as a means to an end.

How to Supercharge Your Life In 7 Steps By Corey Jahnke

Motivation

Tracy was one of the healthiest people I knew. She was full of fire and vinegar! She warmed your heart with her vigor and energy. She was in fantastic shape and it showed in every interaction you had with her. Her smile was captivating. She was simply a joy to be around. I saw her on a Tuesday and shared a brief, seemingly insignificant moment.

On Saturday she was in a war for her life. Somehow, some way, she developed a case of sepsis and in a matter of a few hours she was on life support and a positive outcome appeared hopeless.

What Am I Doing Wrong? By Ron White

Motivation

A few years ago, I called a special meeting. I went to my staff, and I told them that the next day at 1:00 we were going to have a special meeting. The topic of the meeting was going to be all the areas that I, as their boss, could improve upon. One of my employees stood up and said, “OK, right now?”

I replied, “No, we will do this tomorrow at 1:00.” She said very matter of fact, “Oh… I am ready now.” I smiled and told her that I wanted her to at least pretend that it would take her 24 hours to think of how I could improve!

The Seven C’s Of Success By Brian Tracy

Motivation

After having studied top achievers and peak performers over the past 35 years, I’ve concluded that these unique men and women have, in most cases, mastered what I call the Seven C’s of Success.

1. Clarity – Eighty percent of success comes from being clear on who you are, what you believe in and what you don’t.

2. Competence – You can’t climb to the next rung on the ladder until you are excellent at what you do now.

3. Constraints – Eighty percent of all obstacles to success come from within. Find out what is constraining you or your company and deal with it.

Don’t Quit By Vic Johnson

Motivation

“Your circumstances may be uncongenial, but they shall not remain so if you only perceive an ideal and strive to reach it. You cannot travel within and stand still without.” – As a Man Thinketh

For many years I have carried around a poem called Don’t Quit. One of the lines says, “So stick to the fight when you’re hardest hit; It’s when things seem worst that you mustn’t quit.” In our darkest hour it’s hard to see the end of our circumstance. All we can think of is our conditions worsening. But it’s usually at this time that our greatest growth can occur if we’ll see the moment as a growth opportunity — if we’ll see it as a time to learn how to control our thoughts toward an ideal that we cherish.

2) What I want more than anything else in the world is to help you get the most out of your most precious gift ~ YOUR LIFE.

To Get to the Top, Do What Others Won’t By Rory Vaden

Motivation

So how do you stand out to be hired by potential employers? How do you stand out for a promotion to a superior? How do you stand out as loyal to the people you are leading? It’s simple: do the things that others aren’t willing to do.

Whether you’re a leader, a team member, or a candidate, success comes from having the discipline to do the things that you know you should be doing, even when you don’t feel like doing them. When you practice this kind of self-discipline regularly, you’ll naturally stand out from the pack because most people avoid the hard stuff. It’s just easier to put it off.
