Influencing Creative Energy – Words to Live By – Part Two
Last week I shared that in my quiet time, I always ask to be open to wisdom, inspiration and guidance to lead me along my way. I also shared that I do that for this podcast as well so that I may successfully offer you, the listener, content to support you and your desire to experience success and prosperity in every area of your life.
When I was considering the direction I wanted to take you within the last episode, I was inspired to simply look around me. Here in my studio office I am surrounded by the energy of many, many personal, professional, spiritual and leadership development books, hundreds actually.
Then, I looked around at my bulletin board and the wall in front of me. Several powerful quotes surround me too and they support me day in and day out.
In this episode, I share not only my favorite quote of all time, but I take it apart with you so that you may apply the wisdom it contains to whatever you are working toward and and the life experience you desire to create.
I often tell you that “How” is none of your business. Listen to this episode. This is the way the “How” shows up.
Whether you’re working to achieve and accomplish something in your personal, professional or spiritual life, taking action as instructed within these words will help you to make a quantum leap in the direction of all your dreams.
Listen now, follow the instructions and watch what happens.

Success and Achievement with Your Goal Planning System – G.P.S.
In the last three episodes I discussed the elements within the S.M.A.R.T. goals format. Now, with those elements clearly defined and understood, so as not to limit you, we move into the achievement process.
In this episode I share a very valuable tool and even offer to send this tool to you for your own personal and professional use. It’s called the Goal Planning System and it’s a tool within the My-Tyme Success Planner I use from Leadership Management International. Being a franchise partner of LMI, and someone that is dedicated to personal and professional accomplishment, I use my planning system day in and day out.
I will walk you through this form suggesting you utilize this as you begin your week, every week. It’s a very effective way to achieve your weekly goals that are bite size pieces of your BIG DREAM goals.
Get into the habit of spending a few minutes completing this form every single week and you’ll be astonished at the quantum leaps you will make in the direction of your personal, professional and leadership goals.
Forming new, good, supportive and positive habits is the key to lasting transformation and accomplishment..
Listen in now and begin at once!

Your S.M.A.R.T. Goals – Smart or Not? – Part Two
There is an abundance of information out there regarding S.M.A.R.T. goals. Content is being churned out by HR departments, universities, and other think tanks and bloggers; some of it good and a lot of it not so good.
For a long time I spoke about how S.M.A.R.T. goals are not always smart and how they have the potential to limit you and give you a false sense of accomplishment. Since my company, LMI-USA actually owns the registered trademark on S.M.A.R.T goals, I thought I would take a deep dive here and explain why this is still true and how you can blend in S.M.A.R.T. goals to help you make quantum leaps in the direction of your big dream goals for yourself personally, professionally, and for your organization.
This episode is part two on this subject and I go deeper into the S.M.A.R.T. format focusing on the ‘specific, measurable, attainable and realistic‘ aspects of your goals. In the next episode I will wrap up this mini- series and discuss the ‘tangible’ element of your S.M.A.R.T. goals.
These episodes clearly define each element within this goal setting process. Learn the most effective and efficient way to apply this process properly and your results will be astonishing.
