As I stumble through this life I’ve noticed that some of us seriously need a good mentor to post bail for our incarcerated mindset. A good mentor can be like a spotter that’s there to help you lift the heavy weights of life and push you past the point of pain and strain toward a positive gain.

The best mentors tend to be the ones who aren’t afraid to admit that they don’t have it all figured out but their making strides in the right direction every day.

So how is your mindset lately?  Are you in need of a mentor posting bail for your incarcerated, boxed way of thinking?  Have you allowed your own limiting beliefs to paint you into a corner of stinking thinking and a mediocrity mindset?  Hmmm…  Please don’t answer these questions out loud just commit to make the proper changes and make us proud and stand out from the crowd.

Remember that even the best of skillsets without the proper mindset can leave you upset and that you can bet, but it’s not over yet.  Dare to upgrade your condition by grabbing a good mentor and surrounding yourself with positive people who are hell-bent on being better today than they were yesterday in every way every day.  One of the most difficult things to do is to hang out with a bunch of winners and not be one yourself.  🙂

So make a choice today and get on your way to Making it GREAT!

It never ceases to amaze me to see how many people stumble through life neglecting or completely ignoring the development of the number one most important skill this side of the universe.

This skill is without a doubt the key ingredient to any recipe for success.  It’s the salsa that makes the chips of life taste so much better and it’s the single most important factor in the formula for accomplishing your biggest goals and dreams.

The most influential leaders of all time have mastered this skill and leveraged it for good and not-so-good means down through the years.  Philosophers and intellectuals the world over have hailed this skill as being the undisputed heavyweight champion, difference-maker that separates and distinguishes humans from any other species on the planet.

So what exactly is this over-looked, underused, juggernaut skillset you ask?  Well it’s quite simply the skill and the ability to Communicate.  Yes my friends communication is the fuel that makes the world go round.  Growing this skill to its full potential is definitely worthy of our best of efforts but “most people” have resigned themselves to give it no effort at all.

Mastering this skill is definitely not an overnight process but the ongoing process of mastering it can yield HUGE dividends and desired results in more ways than one in your life.

So I say to you, You and yes YOU too on this day, commit to master this skill and watch all of your biggest goals and dreams come true.  Now let’s all go out there and communicate our way to GREATNESS and make it GREAT!

I had the unique opportunity to make my day Great x 2 last night when me and one of my group-home boys EJ had the chance to hang out with a group of people that the ”Good Book” (bible) refers to as “The Least of These”.  An odd group of six homeless people they were as they gathered next to a large barbeque pit fire in the night at one of the local city parks.

To my surprise I was received as if I was a bit of a celebrity amongst the group because one of them had my book “Bread Crumbs to Making it Great” and had been reading it daily to the group.  Wow, I must admit that I wasn’t expecting this type of reception and I felt extremely honored by it.

Me and EJ had some great conversation with them chatting about some of their favorite stories in the book and some of their goals for the future.  “Well, it looks like the fire is dying down and we’re going to need some more wood.” stated Red, who was the group leader.

After an awkward moment of silence, I spoke up and said, “Me and EJ will go and find some wood.”  EJ looked up at me with a surprised face with a smile and then Me, EJ and Red ventured off into the darkness with one small intermittent flash light looking for wood.

Minutes later we ran across several large limbs on the ground and began to break off a few of the smaller pieces to drag back to the camp.  After we got back to the camp we joined the crew in tossing a few branches and dried leaves on the fire.  “Now we’re ready to barbeque!” exclaimed Red.  So they pulled out some freshly purchased raw chicken and topped off the night.

There didn’t appear to be much to go around so Me and EJ didn’t stick around to join them in dinner but we did leave them a few personally signed copies of my book and a little money to buy a tree-limb cutter so they could easily cut up the downed limbs for future firewood during the cold winter season that’s upon us.

To see the look on EJ’s face was priceless as he was super-eager to be the one to give them the books, the wood and the money to help them make it a great day.  We high-fived each other as we got back to the truck and then drove on back to the group home with a big smile on our face knowing that we had just invested two productive hours into making someone else’s day Great.

May our little adventure remind you that these types of opportunities are all around us every day, we just have to be intentional about seizing them.  “The Least of These” is waiting for people like us to step up and be accounted for.  Will you be able to do your fair-share?  Can we count on you to NOT be stingy with your good-fortune and be the exception not just this Thanks Giving season, but in every season?  Hmmm…

Many will find an excuse, but I hope and pray that you will find a way to make someone else’s day Great.

I got a two-for-one this time around.  The homeless group got a blessing and little EJ got to play a huge part in it all.  Not soon shall I forget this one.

So get-on out there and get involved in your own creative way and make a difference in the lives of the “Least of These” in your respective areas of this great world of ours.  And, never-ever-forget that we only get one time through this “life” thing, so let’s continue in our collective efforts to Make it GREAT!

Was having a PC (Power-Chat) with my good friend Bryan Adams yesterday and he reminded me of a phenomenon that many people fall victim to all over the world.  This is as a result of our physical eyesight causing us to be distracted from positive messages of hope and direction.

He stated that many people often times miss the message of the content because of the package that the message of the content was delivered in.  Yes this is so true and I couldn’t agree more.

Just because someone doesn’t physically “look the part” of a person of influence and good knowledge and wisdom doesn’t mean that they’re not capable of delivering a message of the same.

Some of the most profound and inspirational messages of deliverance, hope and prosperity have been delivered from men and women who didn’t necessarily “look the part” or have the illustrious background that most would normally expect.

So don’t be so quick to overlook or completely dismiss messages from those who may not “look the part” because wisdom has no respect of persons.  It can come from the young, the old, the rich-&-famous or the down-trodden.

So pay close attention in the days ahead and look for the “ring of truth” in areas both high and low and leverage it to make your life GREAT!

When is the last time you had a PC?  Hmmm…  It always works for me…  Keep Making it GREAT!
