Are You Being Tested?

No one goes through life untested....The answer to each "test" is walking away with something
learned and with a positive energy.

When we speak of positive energy think optimism, trust, enthusiasm, love, purpose, joy, passion, and the spirit to live, work, and perform at a higher level.

Our new Senior VP, Rod Eller,  has afforded me the opportunity to participate in a new style of coaching...one which works at a deeper level than production coaching can alone. It helps me as the coach, and you as the student, have a deeper understanding of your purpose, your why, and identifying your full potential in your career.

Knowing your purpose and why you think, feel, and respond the way you do to daily life events can assist you to break through barriers and remove the obstacles which can stagnate your success.

To overcome adversity in your life and work you must be willing to share contagious energy with those around you. To bring out the best in others you must first bring out the best in yourself. You have to find a way to push away from those "energy vampires" which threaten to sabotage your health, family, and success... and find the positive things which energize you and keep you motivated. 

Ask yourself this one question:
Is your life a success story... or one big never-ending soap opera?
Every problem... every crisis....holds a gift for you... only you can chose to see it as a curse... or a gift. This one choice over the course of weeks and months may determine if your life is a success story or the aforementioned continuous soap opera.

Think about it.... Everyone has challenges.... It's a part of life. Relationship problems, health problems, work problems... all kinds of problems. The first step to overcoming adversity  is to realize you are the captain of your ship... the driver of your bus... and if you can't take control and accept responsibility for your life and steer in the right direction you will never get where you want... or need... to go.

And....If you are not the driver, you will always be subject to someone else's travel plans.

Some people feel "stuck"... like they have no other choice... so they give up. I'm here to tell you that you do have a choice. You make a conscious decision each day when you get out of bed to have a good day or have a bad day... it's all about your attitude towards the challenges you will face over the next 24 hours. It is YOUR choice to make. You must take the wheel and choose to create the life you want to live. 

Don't let the world create you... YOU create your world!

Ask yourself these questions:
1. What do I want in my life? (including your health)
2. What do I want in my career?
3. What do I want in my relationships? 

The answers to these questions should be loaded with positive energy and will be the first step to becoming the driver of your Life, Health, Career, and Relationships.
