The Beast CANNOT Be Stopped!

The Beast CANNOT Be Stopped!


by | on September 25, 2013  

No matter how hard some may try, no matter what obstacles and/or roadblocks are put up to make it a little more difficult to get the information out there about “THE BEAST” the fact is simply this:
 
THE BEAST CANNOT BE STOPPED!
 
Now, here’s the next thing to ask yourself – “Will YOU be stopped?”
Most of us found out last night after the “Hang Out” about the next few days leading up to the release of ENV2 that some very popular “social sites” (you know, the ones that you might have a BOOK written about your FACE) have blocked anything and everything to do with this company and any links, etc. that would lead others to this valuable information. But remember…
 
THE BEAST CANNOT BE STOPPED!
 
Have FUN finding creative ways around this obstacle and many others that will come your way due to your DESIRE to improve your life and the lives of others around you!
If you haven’t done so, go back and check out my short video on “Secret to Success” from yesterday and see what we MUST do if we plan to SUCCEED (I’m waiting, go on and do it now)!
Oh yeah, and don’t forget that…
 
THE BEAST CANNOT BE STOPPED!
 
Get it? Got it? GOOD!
 
Now, “Be sure to make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)”

Be Thankful and Say So


 
 

Today I am thankful! It’s a beautiful day, I’m alive and I have so much HOPE and PROMISE for my future. So, yeah, why WOULDN’T I be thankful?

Here’s one important thing about being thankful…express it and express it out loud.
There is just something about EXPRESSING  your thankfulness that impacts you at a whole different level than just thinking it. Think about this as well, if you express your thanks out loud around someone else it also serves as a reminder to them that they, too, have something for which to be thankful and it also may very well lift them up in encouragement.

So, what are YOU thankful for today? Express it and share it in the comment section below. It will encourage you, me and everyone else that reads this and leaves comments.

Thanks!

Oh, and by the way, whatever you do, be sure to…

“Make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)”

All You Have is TODAY!



 


“Today is the Tomorrow that you worried about Yesterday!
 
I’m sure you’ve heard that one before, right? But take a moment and really think about what is said in that statement. Here’s a quick summation: TODAY.
 
Put another way (and it’s also something I’ve said many times before), TODAY is all you have. Once this day is done – you can call it yesterday if you want – it’s gone forever and then that period that we had called “tomorrow” is now here and it’s called – what? – TODAY.
 
So, it’s a reality: TODAY IS ALL THAT YOU HAVE!
 
What will YOU do with yours? Make the most of it. whatever that means for you and to you, but make the most of it because, again, once it’s gone, it’s gone forever and can NEVER be reclaimed.
 
And, while you do so, whatever you do, be sure to…
 
“Make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)”

Good or Bad - It's Contagious!


 
 
 
Attitude.
 
Good or bad, it’s contagious!
 
And, just like some deadly disease, you need to RUN and PROTECT YOURSELF and those you love from the impact of a negative or bad attitude. As a matter of fact, friend, I’d say it actually IS a “deadly disease”. It attacks mind, body and soul and can leave a once vibrant person lifeless and weak.
 
Am I overstating this? NO WAY!
 
When one truly understands the devastating impact of a negative attitude and a negative environment then they will do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to get as far away as possible from this plague of mankind.
 
Now, enough of that, let’s turn our focus to the GOOD SIDE of a POSITIVE mindset and attitude being something that you WANT to “catch”! Yes, you still need to RUN but, instead of running away from a BAD attitude, you should RUN TO any environment, group of people or person that personifies this positive attitude.
 
That’s why reading and listening to positive information is so vital to your survival if you desire to have this positive/good attitude yourself. IT’S FOOD FOR THE MIND, SOUL AND BODY!
 
So, let’s close and take a look at this. Not only is it important to surround yourself with positivity but it is also important to make sure YOU are SPREADING the strength that comes from this. In other words, WHAT ARE PEOPLE “CATCHING” FROM YOU?
 
Join me on my “positive mission”, won’t you?
 
Just as it is true with our physical intake with food, so it is with a positive or negative attitude and mindset: YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT.
 
Think about it and always remember to…
 
“Make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)”

Who Follows YOU?

 
 
 
 
Position DOES NOT make a leader. We've established that fact and, hopefully, more and more people will begin to understand that and CHANGE their "style" of "leadership". After all, that's not leadership, it's a POSITION. (In order to be a leader you must have followers!).
 
A real leader is one who has "been there, done that"! In other words, they are able to lead based on what they KNOW. The KNOW because they have BEEN THERE and DONE THAT! They can SHOW you the way because they have GONE the way. If you didn't read it, go back to the last blog entitled, "Been There, Done That" and take a look at the quote at the top of the article from John C. Maxwell.
 
Now, with those founding pillars in place let's conclude this little series on EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP by asking the question, "Who follows YOU?"
 
Some are stunned and surprised at such a question because they don't think ANYONE is following them. Friend, get this point: even if you are NEGATIVE and have NO DESIRE to lead the way, SOMEONE is watching you and choosing to do what you do. In other words, they are choosing to follow your lead.
 
Kinda' scary, isn't it? I HOPE SO!
 
You see, you can LEAD others to BE better, DO better and LIVE better by your own desire to do the same. And, by doing so, you are SHOWING what you KNOW because you have chosen to GO that way and follow that path. Amazing, isn't it?
 
And, on the other hand, you can choose to do the opposite and have others with no desire use you as an excuse to do the same in their life. Sad, isn't it?
 
Either way - YOU ARE A LEADER.
 
I saw this demonstrated in my own life when I was somewhere around 6th - 7th grade. There was a little guy quite a bit younger than me that would sit by me at church and, on one such occasion, I began to notice that he was trying to do everything that I was doing. If I sat up straight, he sat up straight. If I coughed, he coughed. I crossed my leg and, as hard as it was for him to do so, he found a way to cross his leg just like me. Even then it hit me hard that someone was watching me THAT closely and that they were DOING exactly what they saw me do.
 
Friend, nothing has changed.
 
 
So, with that being true (and it is) why in the world would ANYONE choose to lead others toward a life of unfulfilled and empty dreams? NOT YOU!
 
So, look in the mirror and say to yourself with CONFIDENCE and with a SMILE on your face: "I really AM a leader!".
 
Now, go on. LEAD.
 
 
And while you're at it, be sure to...
 
"Make it an AWESOME day! (Who else is going to do it for you?)"
