Making positive changes and improving life!
A friend called this morning and told me of the numerous positive changes she’s made in her life since November. It was absolutely amazing to hear the energy, excitement, passion and self-esteem. She told me that she had fallen into a rut for awhile due to health issues. She had also surrounded herself with people who didn’t care much about their health, fitness, goals or living life to the fullest. As a result she gained over 30 pounds, wasted hours watching mindless TV and felt like you know what.

Health Barn USA
This is a website that one of my fellow yogis told me about. HealthBarnUSA I don’t want to tell you too much (which is odd for a speaker, I know) but I am so impressed by what Stacey is doing with her New Jersey company. She’s teaching kids how to grow their own gardens, eat better, healthier foods, what organic foods are, composting and a variety of topics related to health. If you ever met Stacey, you could tell immediately that she’s the perfect role model of healthy living.

Leadership - Confidence - Direction 3 things people need right now!
Last month I spoke to a terrific group of advisors in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. I talked about taking action to gain more success in 2009. Despite the 24 hour daily gloom and doom on TV, there are always opportunities for those salespeople with passion, integrity, competitive drive, a positive attitude and willingness to do SOMETHING! These advisors are keeping very busy, asking for referrals, hosting client events to keep in touch with their clients and doing most things that the discouraged advisors are not willing to do.

Get a more positive attitude and get more done!
Focus on others challenges and issues. It will put some of yours in perspective.
Surround yourself with others who share your positive attitude. Brainstorm about the possibilities and what IS working right now.
Read or listen to something inspirational, funny or motivational as you begin your day. It will set you on a more positive track, in a much better mood.
Have positive conversations in your own mind. Your thinking thoughts all day anyway. Are they encouraging to you or are you giving yourself a constant mental beating?
Your attitude is 100% YOUR responsibility! Accept it. It’s goes with being an adult. It’s not what happens to you, it’s how YOU decide to respond.
Do what you love to do. If you are burnt out in your job, look for another job. Life’s too short and sometimes too long to do something you don’t like.
Do 1 random act of kindness - daily!

Vicki Wood Against All Odds
What a great week! I visited my grandmother at an event at Daytona Beach, Florida. It was a reunion of drivers and their race cars from the 1950s and 1960s. Grandma Vicki was a racer during those years, inspiring others to go after their goals as she raced against men! She did have quite a lead (heavy) foot, which explains my need for speed! She still holds speed records on the beach course. 150 mph! That’s amazing!

Low energy, high stress, limited time? Change habits and change your outlook!
This week I spoke with a friend who was feeling frazzled by the current economy. She has never worked so hard for such little money. The stress-levels are sky high, energy is low, morale is below sea level and my friend is really frustrated. I asked her what she was doing for exercise. “Neil, I just don’t have time or energy anymore.” That is a comment I hear often these days. Remember this. It doesn’t matter what is going on in your career, life or day. You control your attitude and your activity. Take responsibility and give yourself permission to get daily exercise! It will inspire you and raise yours self-esteem, energy and alertness. read more…
