Inspiration: “It’s not your salary that makes you rich; it’s your spending habits.” Charles A Jaffe
Be: (positive confession) I Am Fiscally Responsible.
Do: (first steps) Today, balance your personal budget. One of the biggest causes of personal and relational stress is concerns over money. If you begin to develop a mindset of preserving net worth over just income you can lessen this stress. In simplest terms your net worth deals with the difference between what you make and what you spend, as well as what you spend on (i.e. things that depreciate vs. things that appreciate in value such as real estate and investment portfolios). Although it can be difficult to put limits on our spending habits, what appears to be restrictive in the short term will actually create a plethora of options in the long run.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I develop mastery in the area of spending, saving, and investing I have the freedom to fully enjoy life and the people closest to me.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
The Thought For The Day: Twice The Person
Monday, June 29, 2009
Inspiration: “What if you were able to improve yourself today just three-tenths of one percent? Here’s what will happen. The first day you will improve by .003, so little it will be probably impossible to notice. The second day, your improvement will be .006; the next day, .009, almost a full one [...]

Inspiration: “What if you were able to improve yourself today just three-tenths of one percent? Here’s what will happen. The first day you will improve by .003, so little it will be probably impossible to notice. The second day, your improvement will be .006; the next day, .009, almost a full one percent. And by the end of the year, you will have improved by one hundred percent. Double.” Jeff Olson, author ‘The Slight Edge’
Be: (positive confession) I Am Twice the Man/Woman I Used to Be.
Do: (first steps) Today, embrace hidden results. Let this be the start of reading 10 pages of a book that teaches you something valuable, everyday. Do a penny’s worth of exercise (20-25 minutes) on the treadmill or with some weights, and do it again tomorrow and the next day and so on. Do the little things that produce seemingly insignificant, but positive results, daily and you will improve one hundred percent over the course of the next year.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I dedicate myself to persistent movement in the same direction right under my eyes I will have twice the fun, twice the business savvy, twice the relational bliss, twice the health, and twice the wealth this time next year.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!

Inspiration: “You will only improve what you track.” Mike Murdock
Be: (positive confession) I Am Tracker.
Do: (first steps) Today, begin keeping record of the things you want to see grow in your life; in doing so you will create a blueprint for future successes. Would you like to improve your golf game? Monitor the number of putts, chips, and greens you hit in regulation and from there develop your practice schedule. Are you fishing for more business? Keep close tabs on the leads you bring in from different advertising sources and how well you convert them into actual paying customers. Do you want a healthier body? Track your daily exercise and nutritional habits, and they will tell the story of whether you are on the road to success or going down the path to disease. You choose the areas and for every area make a journal entry to plot your progress.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I zero in on the daily habits that determine my success and track my adherence to them I am a thousand times more likely to have the results I desire.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
The Thought For The Day: Judicious
Tuesday, June 25, 2009
Inspiration: “Zealous men are ever displaying to you the strength of their belief; judicious men are showing you the grounds of it.” William Shenstone, 18th Century English Poet
Be: (positive confession) I Am Judicious.
Do: (first steps) Today, to your zeal add sensibility, the ‘why’ behind what you stand for. The old adage [...]

Inspiration: “Zealous men are ever displaying to you the strength of their belief; judicious men are showing you the grounds of it.” William Shenstone, 18th Century English Poet
Be: (positive confession) I Am Judicious.
Do: (first steps) Today, to your zeal add sensibility, the ‘why’ behind what you stand for. The old adage that ‘knowledge is king’ is still true today. Dedicate a portion of your time to learning more about the advantages and disadvantages of your product, service, or belief as well as those of your competitors. In this way you can be a better source of help to the people you serve.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I gain a greater understanding of the grounds for my convictions I’ll have a firmer footing that will enable me to promote and defend them even more zealously.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
The Thought For The Day: Failing My Way To The Top
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
Inspiration: “The formula for success is quite simple: double your rate of failure.” Thomas J. Watson, Sr. Founder of IBM
Be: (positive confession) I Am Failing My Way to the Top.
Do: (first steps) Today, lose the mindset that “failure is not an option”. If you are not willing to suffer failure then you [...]

Inspiration: “The formula for success is quite simple: double your rate of failure.” Thomas J. Watson, Sr. Founder of IBM
Be: (positive confession) I Am Failing My Way to the Top.
Do: (first steps) Today, lose the mindset that “failure is not an option”. If you are not willing to suffer failure then you will probably never start anything. When you make a misstep simply redirect and reposition to make another march armed with the knowledge gained from the previous one. By learning from, rather than avoiding, mistakes you will develop toughness, determination, and greater understanding of what is involved in winning.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I improve my ratio of victories to defeats and forward strides to backward stumbles I’ll have an arsenal of mental and physical skills to complement my stockpile of riches.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
Never be afraid to fail. But definitely have a healthy fear of NOT grabbing life by the horns and proceeding in the direction of your goals and dreams.
The Thought For The Day: Believer
Tuesday, June 23, 2009
Inspiration: “For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who don’t believe, no proof is possible.” Stuart Chase
Be: (positive confession) I Am A Believer.
Do: (first steps) Today, remember every great thing ever invented by man had to first be believed before it was seen. Long before a switch was [...]

Inspiration: “For those who believe, no proof is necessary. For those who don’t believe, no proof is possible.” Stuart Chase
Be: (positive confession) I Am A Believer.
Do: (first steps) Today, remember every great thing ever invented by man had to first be believed before it was seen. Long before a switch was ever flicked Edison believed he could harness light in a bottle, before the first assembly line Henry Ford believed an “iron horse” would be the transportation of the future; and before you can see your dreams step into reality you must picture it in your minds eye and believe it CAN really happen to you.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I realize that “believing is seeing” and not the other way around I put my self on the path to accomplishing great things.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
The Thought For The Day: Recruiter
Monday, June 22, 2009
Inspiration: “Light is the task where many share the toil.” Homer
Be: (positive confession) I Am a Recruiter.
Do: (first steps) Today, accept the fact that to accomplish anything truly great, that is, greater than you, requires the work of a team. You are exceptional, but you can’t do it alone. Share your vision [...]

Inspiration: “Light is the task where many share the toil.” Homer
Be: (positive confession) I Am a Recruiter.
Do: (first steps) Today, accept the fact that to accomplish anything truly great, that is, greater than you, requires the work of a team. You are exceptional, but you can’t do it alone. Share your vision and sell your passion to others who can add to it and run with it. It is true that not everyone will want to come alongside to fulfill the dream, but it may only take a committed few to get your idea moving in the right direction.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I convince others of the power of our combined talents we will have the ability to produce even greater results than either of us individually.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
The Thought For The Day: Stepping Out
Friday, June 19, 2009
Inspiration: “Sometimes you’ve got to just step out and find out. If you never step out, you’ll never know, and you will always think, ‘I wonder what would have happened if I would have stepped out.” Rev. Joyce Meyer
Be: (positive confession) I Am Stepping Out.
Do: (first steps) Today, step out. Take your dream, [...]

Inspiration: “Sometimes you’ve got to just step out and find out. If you never step out, you’ll never know, and you will always think, ‘I wonder what would have happened if I would have stepped out.” Rev. Joyce Meyer
Be: (positive confession) I Am Stepping Out.
Do: (first steps) Today, step out. Take your dream, your passion, and your training and do something with them. Hesitancy, at first, is normal especially if you are moving forward in a new arena but those butterflies were not meant to stop you. They are meant to keep you conscientious of the effort you put forth and help you do your very best. So, inhale deeply, blow all the fluttering out of your gut, stop wondering, and take the first step.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I start in on a new phase of my life’s journey by taking one step followed by another then another I have begun the walk of success.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!

The Thought For The Day: Value Oriented

Inspiration: “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get” Warren Buffet.
Be: (positive confession) I Am Value Oriented.
Do: (first steps) Today, stop looking for the cheapest price and start searching for the best value. Cheap is expensive is an axiom we all would do well to live by. Whether you [...]

Inspiration: “Price is what you pay. Value is what you get” Warren Buffet.
Be: (positive confession) I Am Value Oriented.
Do: (first steps) Today, stop looking for the cheapest price and start searching for the best value. Cheap is expensive is an axiom we all would do well to live by. Whether you are purchasing a new car, hiring a new employee, or considering what you are going to eat for lunch today instead of asking yourself the question what is the “price” of this item instead determine what it’s “cost” which would include the price you pay today plus any future expenses related to that purchase. (Ex. Maybe that $1 cheeseburger is cheaper than that $8 salad NOW, but waht about when you add in the medical expenses due to high cholesterol later?)
Have: (making dreams reality) As I learn to invest in quality I may not get the cheapest price today but I’ll save myself a lot more heartache and have more disposable income in the days ahead.
Be, Do, and Have the Best Day of your Life! God Bless You!
Never be afraid to purchase quality. Just the opposite, be very wary of today’s special or “good deal”. It is good for somebody but probably not you. A good price will fade quickly when you are stuck with bad service or poor quality.
The Thought For The Day: Magnanimous
Wednesday, June 17, 2009
Inspiration: “Magnanimous people have no vanity, they have no jealousy, and they feed on the true and the solid wherever they find it. And, what is more, they find it everywhere.” Van Wyck Brooks, Historian and Biographer
Be: (positive confession) I Am Magnanimous.
Do: (first steps) Today, live by your giving. Give people the [...]

Be: (positive confession) I Am Magnanimous.
Do: (first steps) Today, live by your giving. Give people the benefit of the doubt. Bestow upon those that have hurt you true forgiveness. When it is in your power, share your resources with those in need. Impart your wisdom to a young person and help them avoid some of the mistakes you made along the way. Truly you have received, now truly give.
Have: (making dreams reality) As I generously contribute to the world around me I will never lack any good thing.
Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life! God Bless You!
