Moving Forward--- Day 3

I realized something today. It was an oversight that surprised me. I have been pulling my document up on the computer daily to check in with my scheduled time and to read over my Achievement plan. What I had not done is print out my achievement statement so it was where I could read it and remind myself of what I'm working towards.

Today I copied, pasted and enlarged the text. I printed it out and now have it pasted to the bookcase to the right side of my desk so all I need to do is turn to the right, look up, and read my statement. In this vicinity is also the Magic Power Beans statement for me and Big Z that was part of the Boot Camp training materials.

Last night I read something about helping people get what they want while moving towards my intention. The term used for it was harmonic intention. I like that term. As I read my goal statement, I realize it is impersonal to others because it says nothing of the help I give to another as I take steps to achieve it; it states what I would like to receive. I will be reworking this statement to reflect harmonic intention.

If you would like to tune into a call next week from Tim Sales to listen in on his discussion about how to grow your teams using harmonic intention then join his call.

Tim Sales is a professional through and through. He has created a huge team of his own, and has dedicated his life to improving the "professionalism" associated with businesses from home. He is helping create Professionals. A few years ago, I listened to his Professional Inviter and Brilliant Communication programs. They are very powerful and well, "professional"!

I have also seen Tim Sales speak live and got to talk with him in person. I was blown away by his presence. He carries the air of "brilliance" around him. I'm not saying he is brilliant, but that his energy is brilliant --- he has a lightness of being, yet a powerful presence, he is well-groomed and seems to emanate a radiant glow. When you talk with him, he gives you 100% of himself in that conversation. He is professional and yet compassionate and human. I was so attracted to him and by the end of the day I knew why:

I wanted to be like him---- Living my life with all my needs met, living my life passions, giving of my time to family, friends, and my larger community, and devoted to the service of others, to effect a positive and healthy change in people and in the world and having inexhaustible resources, living my life in a very balanced and spiritual way.

Tim Sales created his fortune and could have stopped there, gone away and hidden himself on a remote island. Instead of doing this, he's co-created his life to be in harmony with living ---- he eats well, gets proper exercise, he has massive doses of fun and adventurous activities, he has quality time with his family, he devotes his life to service, he shares his seeds of wealth with others, he inspires people to become more. He chose instead to continue to be a leader, a professional, and a World Changer. I'm so glad he did, because the seeds he drops, I benefit from. Maybe you can too. The call is f'ree:

Today was a full day. As I gloss my list of accomplishments, I find that many items were attended to, items that are indirectly and directly related to my goal.

--I checked off the change of payment information for Big Z's to mine based upon recommendation from two tax advisers.

--I gave a F/U call to one of the Moms from yesterday. I sent her direct links to the shopping mall for Big Z Gives Big, and another link for the presentations. I spoke with her about her intentions and clarified that she would only like to be a purchaser of items on the mall. I explained about the school's potential involvement. She is an educator, and therefore, on the computer far too often for her liking. Her biggest reasons for only wanting to do her personal shopping are: 1) no time; 2) no desire to be online any longer than she has to; 3) does not want to talk to others about biz or shopping. Will check in with her again after her family leaves town in a week.

--F/U with friend from yesterday. Still no decision.

--Set up a master Gmail account for all MPM related correspondence.

--Update blogs and reply to blogs

--Exercise, Juice, Meditate

--Research on the mall for an item for my sister. Jack Lallane Juicers. My mom has one and my sister has asked if we have one on the mall. We do. And, many other choices besides! I called my sister. She wasn't home. (We've spoken to her previously about supporting Big Z and thus far, she's still a Costco fan and is set in her ways). Will call her tomorrow.

--Email

--Update my plan and annotate accomplishments on the list

--Sort and sift papers, notes, & biz importants near my desk for ease of reference (more work to be done here . . . this is an Earth Angel project, for sure ;-)). I got side-tracked in this process to look for the author of a quote I have on a torn off sheet of paper. I looked online and didn't find it ;-).

But even though I can't give proper credit the author, I will give you the quote now:

"Take heart. The seeds of success are often born through difficulty."

I think this quote must've come from one of our phone directories. If anyone knows the author, would you please reply and let us know? Thanks!

--A habit I'm getting into that I began in during Boot Camp, especially after January, is to document my time. I have a notepad. I write the time I get up, and every activity that I do throughout the day. This gives me a way to look back on the day and see how I spent my time. I will have a ready source of information to let me know if I'm choosing activities that "spin time" or that "move me forward to my goals". This is how I can look at my day today and know that many of my activities were indirectly or directly supporting my goal.

A sincere evaluation of my day towards my goals: I didn't make enough calls or talk to enough people. Knowing this, I will make up for it and get better at making it a priority to "talk to enough people".
