Swing Your True Swing

Monday, August 29th, 2011

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ The game of golf is really quite simple. The struggle is suppressing the distractions, calming yourself such that you are in complete tune with your body, and maintaining unparalleled focus. In the great movie, The Legend of Bagger Vance, Bagger Vance put it this way: “He got a lot of shots he could choose from… Duffs and tops and skulls, there’s only ONE shot that’s in perfect harmony with the field… One shot that’s his authentic shot, and that shot is gonna choose him… There’s a perfect shot out there tryin’ to find each and every one of us…”

I truly believe that. Maybe you’ve learned to swing an ugly swing, but you’ve grown comfortable with it. And now that you’re trying to correct your bad form, things aren’t feeling natural.

Step out of your comfort zone, and let that true swing come through you. Let your innate wisdom lead you powerfully.

Have a great Monday!

Under-Promise and Over-Deliver

Monday, August 8th, 2011

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ Have you ever ordered a pizza, the guy on the phone said it would be an hour, and it shows up in 30 minutes? You’re pumped!

Or how about the last time you ordered a book off of Amazon? They said it would take 7 to 10 business days. When it arrives on day 2, you are one happy customer.

Coincidence? Not a chance. You’re just lucky? I don’t think so. This is pure marketing. It’s called
under-promise and over-deliver. And that way, when someone receives your ‘over’ delivery, they are more enthused and love you even more.

Have a great Monday!

Spin Around and Smile

Monday, July 18th, 2011

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ Children up to preschool age are said to laugh 150-300 times daily, while adults laugh only 15 times a day!

Sure, as we grow older we may discover that we are not as innately happy as a toddler, but we can decide to smile. In fact, just doing so has been proven to instill happiness. In the late 80’s for instance, a study was conducted wherein students were asked to make a “u” or an “e” sound and record how they felt. Unsurprisingly, subjects that made the “e” sound reported feeling much happier than their counterparts, because they were smiling as a result.

So smile. Smile right now. Smile at lunch. Spin around in a circle and smile. Feeling better? I thought so. Create a great Monday!

The Best of You

Monday, July 4th, 2011

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ What is possible for you? Do you have latent talents that you haven’t tapped into yet?

President Kennedy confidently declared, “We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills. Because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too.”

Declare an impossible vision for yourself, and then watch who you have to become to make it possible. What is possible for you?

Have a great Monday!

Life is But a Game

Monday, June 13th, 2011

* Transcription

Thank God it’s Monday!™ Life is but a game. You can’t win. You certainly can’t lose. And, it’s the only game you have. But you are constantly reminded that the other players exist—the boss, the family, the neighbor, the church… and they are all telling you what they think is best for you.

At the end of the day, you make your own decisions. It’s your game. And the points you rack up in your lifetime are on you.

But often, especially in the workplace, you are not the only authority in the decision making process. You must find a way to get things done, despite not being in charge.

Make your vision clear to those whose ideas conflict with your own. If your vision is truly more effective, show them why. Chances are, they will appreciate your effort toward identifying an area of growth and allow you to move forward. Play on. Enjoy the game.

Have a great Monday!
