Our 16th Fireside Chat – Sacrifices. The sacrifices we make in order to reach our goals – Tim & Joe chat about what sacrifices Tim has made to be successful.

 Tim and Joe chat about having the patience to deal with what comes along in life in order to be successful.

We all encounter obstacles in life, it is how we handle our lives through the obstacles. Tim and Joe talk about life’s obstacles and how we get through them.

We often go through our day with our mind focused on the small picture. We get all tangled up in that everyday grind of routine and unimportant activities. This not only saps our time but also saps our energy and creativity. Days, months and years go by like a sports car in the fast lane. You will understand that you are in this rut when you feel that you can’t get anything accomplished. Why do we feel this way? We feel this way because we are stuck in a trap that leads us to nowhere. 

Everyone in life needs a feeling of purpose and why we were put on this earth. A purpose in life is the energy that drives us forward. It gives us meaning and fuels the fire of creativity. Meaning puts the joy back in your heart. 
We were all put on this earth for a reason and it’s up to you to find it. I know, you sit there and think; “What could I be doing and giving to this world?” Those questions are a great place to start. Think and write down everything that comes out of your head after you absorb that question. It’s up to you to find your own joy and define it. 

I can hear you say that you have no control of this? Think again, you have all the control. When and how do you start, you ask? Get the word “I Don’t Have Time” out of your mind and just start. I love Jim Rohn’s take on this;

“If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much!” 

It’s your life and don’t let anyone or anything stop you!! Happy Monday everyone! Take control before someone else does!

Making a difference in your life by changing the way you think. Change your mindset in order to improve your results. If you have been doing the same thing with negative results…Change Your Mindset!

“The way we see the problem is the problem.” Stephen Covey

Life is one big opportunity broken up into many smaller opportunities. It is always evolving. You might think that you end somewhere but any motion around you will always keep you evolving. The problem in life is that many people label themselves and they get stuck in this identity. I’m a cabinet maker by trade but I don’t let that label me. I’m so much more to the universe. I’m a husband, brother, father, coach, mentor, friend, etc. I used to be an athlete but now I only pretend. Made you smile, lol. I’m the ultimate opportunist. Life is always evolving in my world and that drives my spirit.

Problems are a big part of this evolution. Problems are the stepping stones to your future. The higher up the ladder you get in life, the bigger the problems. Most people wince at that thought but in time, I found out a secret with this phenomenon. Once the bigger problems came, I stopped worrying about the smaller problems. They became very insignificant in my new world so I don’t let them rent space in my mind because they don’t pay me a cent. See what I mean? Opportunist on my forehead!

Where are you in life right now? Where do you see yourself in the near future? If you have stopped with your last past story, you are not done. You are just in transition before your next experience, trade, love or story. Remember, we are always evolving, and opportunity is everywhere that you choose to open your eyes to. I love this one from napoleon Hill; “Whatever your mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”
Open up your mind and dump the trash, immediately. Train the mind to think of solutions instead of focusing on the problems. You will be happy when you finally do.
