The best things we can ever teach our kids in this life will be “caught” and not “taught”. Yes that’s right folks, we have to lead with our model and not just our mouth so they can “catch” you doing it and not just talking about it.
Let your kids see your positive passions in action and develop an understanding of why it makes a difference in this world and don’t be surprised if/when they start to leverage their own passions to do the same.

There are few things better than watching your kids Make it Great and knowing that you had a little something to do with planting that seed.

This breadcrumb of wisdom can definitely make you smile, so eat-up and go-up and Make it GREAT!

Question: Do you know the name of the security guard at your local grocery store? When was the last time you gave a slurpee or a cup of coffee to that crossing guard that’s protecting those kids in your neighborhood daily?

Have you ever looked over at that police officer next to you at the stop light and smiled and gave them a thumbs-up? When was the last time you shook the hand of a person in a military uniform that didn’t share your last name and gave them a heart-felt “Thank You”?

These seemingly benign gestures may not make a difference in the world to the untrained eye, but a world of difference it could be for the person on the receiving end.

I challenge you to not let this week pass you by without being a “Good-4-Nothing” to someone(s) in your area. Doing “Good” for “Nothing” in return can actually yield you a pretty big return in the grand scheme of things. Give it a try and I guarantee they’ll be glad you did, and so will you. 🙂

Let’s go Make it GREAT you big-ole’ “Good-4-Nothings”! GREAT WEEK!!!

While talking with one of my friends a few days ago I was suddenly reminded of an undercover phenomenon that is quietly leading to the demise of our great country. He didn’t actually say it but I felt it as our conversation drifted to a topic that is starting to impact him and his family directly.

The strength of this phenomenon lies in the fact that it’s actually disguised as something “good” and the notion that we should all strive for it at almost any cost is wreaking havoc on families around the globe.

So what is this phenomenon you ask? Well, I invite you to consider that even the greatest amount of “Success” on any job can never ever bridge the gap and make up for failure and extended absence in the home.

Now here’s where I put a “period (.)” and let you chew on this thought and think about how you will become the exception and find an acceptable balance and compromise to Make it GREAT……. Or just continue on with your business as usual.

Hmmm…

(Here’s a hint: “They’re worth it…”

That which we can’t see and touch actually produces that which we can see and touch. That’s right my friends, the invisibles and intangibles like our thoughts, beliefs and passions are the creators of the reality that we see before us today good or not-so-good.

So, if this is true, then controlling our intangibles and invisibles and manipulating them to our benefit is an action that’s sure to bear positive fruit and produce our desired results. Hmmm…

Simply put, taking captive our thoughts, beliefs and passions leveraging them for our benefit can no doubt get us one step closer to manifesting that which we desire most in this ‘life’ thing.

Yes my friends, sometimes the process to Make it Great is very simple but oftentimes it’s not easy. But, it’s definitely worth it when the day is done.

An occasional late-night-snack on a little breadcrumb of wisdom can’t hurt. So, eat-up and move-up and Make it GREAT!

One of the most deceptively destructive force this side of the universe has been known to subtly lull and lure its victims into a mindset of believing everything is okay. The most susceptible victims tend to be those who have a host of credentials and/or years of service in a particular field because in many cases they’ve adopted a dangerous, old-school philosophy of “We’ve always done it this way.”

So what is this deceptively destructive force that’s subtly wrecking an untold amount of havoc on this new generation you ask? Well, it’s quite simply “Resistance to Change”. Yes that’s right friends sticking to many ways and methods of the past can be a one-way ticket to irrelevance or complete extinction. Even the animals of nature understand this concept and adapt accordingly. Hmmm…

As I casually look around in observation and interaction with many organizations the harsh truth I’ve come to realize is that some of us are in severe need of a self-inflicted intervention and re-introduction to the notion of what it means to be open to change.

I am not unmindful that this notion can be a really tough pill to swallow for some so if this proverbial “shoe” fits or applies to you or someone you know, encourage them to grab a cold glass of milk to wash this pill down. I invite you to consider the undeniable notion that new methods for a new millennium can enable us to conquer new mountains.

So don’t be afraid to embrace change because “C-H-A-N-G-E” simply means Choosing to Have A New Goal to Explore. So choose wisely and Make it GREAT!
