The Goals Habit…
Making Goals a Habit…
SET GOALS is the fourth color in the Time Prism Performance Spectrum, because you can’t make the leap from here to your vision, all in one jump. You can’t just “do” a mission. You need specific, tangible targets to give you immediate direction — ones which will lead thereafter to even greater destinations.
When you set specific GOALS, you target future accomplishments with precision and clarity. The first step in getting “EVERYTHING” you want is to specify exactly what “EVERYTHING” is.
The Awesome Power of Commitment…
Making Commitment A Habit…
Please take a minute to watch our inspiring little video on the power of commitment.
Just take a breath… watch… and THINK!
Think about your life right now, and how committed you are to its direction.
Think about your commitment to everyone around you.
Just stop and think!
The question then becomes, have you yet made commitment a habit?
A habit, of course, is something you do automatically, intuitively, or instinctively.
Honor Is a Driving Force of Success
To understand why HONOR is critical to your success, click play on the Smarter in a Minute clip above >> take a breath >> and THINK >>
When we think of a giant word like excellence we generally see it through the lens of quality or worth.
Like excellence, a lack of honor drives you further away from the life you love.
A life of high worth and achievement.
According to the urban dictionary, Honor has many uses, all of them good. If you are called a man of honor, you are respected. If someone honors you, they recognize and award you for your achievements.
Leadership & Vision Go Together Like Ham & Eggs
The only true gift a leader must possess is vision.
One of my best friends is a man who is considered a Christian Statesman, Sir John Edmund Haggai.
Author of numerous books on leadership, this single quote has stuck with me for my entire career…
“The leader seeks to communicate his vision to his followers. He captures their attention with his optimistic intuition of possible solutions to their needs. He influences them by the dynamism of his faith. He demonstrates confidence that the challenge can be met, the need resolved, the crisis overcome.”
Parsing this out, you quickly get the idea that…
Crazy? Great!
When I was completing Think TQ & Grow Rich, I looked back at all the wisdom of the ages and came to this conclusion.
The people who made it over the years were all considered nuts by their friends, families, bosses, coworkers, everyone who they came into contact with.
Napoleon Hill documented this perfectly in his Think and Grow Rich book of the late 1930s. Then, it was about stuff like automobiles, radio, TV, phones, etc.
Decades later, my dear friend Robert Schuller wrote a book on a very crazy topic: Possibility Thinking.
Will Artificial Intelligence be Your Friend or Foe?
Billions Are Being Spent To Make Machines Smarter… But Who’s Going to Make You Smarter Than a Machine?
We have become a “survival of the smartest” global economy where human capital needs to be retooled, reimagined, and reinvented. And we need to do it quickly.
Put simply, we need to make people — not just machines — smarter about what they think and do each day — at work and at home.
To achieve this, The World Excellence Project has developed and deployed a smart new App designed to make you smarter in the moment.
It’s Time to LOVE Your Life…
Life is not an endurance test… or a problem to be solved.
Life is an adventure of challenges, hopes, and dreams to be lived to the max.
It doesn’t take years to find the life you love, it takes just a few hours.

It’s Time Again To Look Back and Ask, “What If?”
What If???
As we close out 2018 and look forward to 2019, it’s a great time to take inventory of how far we’ve come, and where we want to go in 2019.
Many of us had a wonderful year, full of opportunities, challenges and positive results.
Some had real problems, professionally, emotionally and financially.
Regardless, it’s time to stop for a moment and ask the BIG question… “What If?”
What if I had worked a bit smarter… how much further down the line would I be?
What if I had stopped long enough to THINK a bit more each day… what opportunities would I have been able to seize?
What if I had taken time more seriously… what could I have accomplished?
Excellence Is A Prevailing Attitude
General Colin Powell said it best, “Excellence is a prevailing attitude.”
Excellence is about your quality of life… your commitment to being the best you possible… living up to your full potential.
Lose Weight ~ Gain Success
Fitness Matters…
When we created the Time Prism we spent a great deal of time deciding the order of the 10 colors.
Some felt that Mission or Attitude needed to be the first color because everyone knows, “attitude is everything!”
Others thought that having real goals, in writing with hard-target deadlines was most important.
And others still felt team building skills, organization and time management should be numero uno!

The View From the Top Is Worth the Climb
“I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand.
Henceforth will I apply ALL my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.” ~ Og Mandino

TQ vs. The Law of Attraction…
Why People Fail to Make The Law of Attraction Work…
There are thousands of books and seminars on making the Law of Attraction work for the average person. So, why do people find it so difficult to “manifest” their hopes and dreams?
What Is Your Time Quotient? Why Should You Care?
Last week we discussed the difference between hopes and wishes vs. crystal-clear EXPECTATIONS.
As I pointed out all week, what you have the RIGHT to expect is based on four Colors within your personal Time Prism:
Your sense of purpose and MISSION… your ATTITUDE… your ability to set Smart GOALS… and your ability to establish realistic PLANS to achieve your goals.
Do you have the WILL to succeed?
Do you believe you can FLY?
This week, we will be discussing The Will to Succeed…
the pure determination necessary to triumph over fear, uncertainty, and doubt as you move towards your most cherished dreams and goals.
