When we have days like this, we can allow it to ruin us or we can decide to do our best under any circumstance; we can decide to make it happen! The Show Must Go On! If you encounter a problem today that knocks you off track, take a moment to think of what you can do and then go do it. Some days are better than others, but The Show Must Always Go On!

Remember, Resistance is a sneaky bastard. It will creep up on you, tell you lies and hold you down if you let it. However, action will always trump Resistance! The way to break through is to make the commitment, feel the Resistance and take the action anyway. So... BEAT RESISTANCE TODAY - DO the WORK... It's funny how easily ACTION silences Resistance!

In every moment a new you is born! You have the opportunity to break through and start fresh in any moment. Are you going to step into it or stay the same? It's Time for the New You to Shine Through Today!

In life and in business, we all get stuck at times. Don't get me wrong... I'm all about pushing through, taking action and making it happen. However, sometimes the best thing we can do is slow our roll, let it go and let it flow. Allow the magic to happen by allowing the universal flow and your subconscious to go to work for you. If you've been working hard on something creative, a new venture, a new idea, etc... but just can't seem to move forward... take a step back, walk away, take a day off, take a week off... whatever you need... but let it go and have faith it will come to you when you least expect it. Let it Go & Let if Flow!

Remember when you were young and people told you to put a dollar away a day, and how that dollar would compound annually to be worth much more by the time you reach retirement? That's the essence of "The Slight Edge", and the essence of sustainable, long-term success. Here's another question: How many times have you set huge goals and expect to achieve them quickly, only to realize you've over-comitted and cannot sustain the required effort? So many of us do this. We set ourselves up for failure. Stop doing that! Focus on the small, doable things that are just as easy to do or not to do. Do those little things more consistently, build momentum, then up-level and the Big things will happen. Julie has ‘tricks to make things stick’. For example, if you want to stop eating cheeseburgers, move from 5 to 2 per week, then once you achieve that, move on to the next goal, maybe it’s no cheese. Make sure you create small achievable goals, set yourself up for success, and allow those to compound over time to reach your big goals!

If you have an attitude of success, you are already successful. There are always people there to pick you up and help you. Sometimes, we adults need to be reminded what it’s like to be young, vibrant and positive with unbridled hope and faith... just like Apollos Hester. Watch this video and connect to that part of you that knows you can finish strong! When you truly believe you can win, you will! It’s GAMETIME!

Turn your opponents into your champions by asking them for advice. Think about a current situation where if you got someone's advice, would they feel more connected to you? When you ask people for advice, you win them over to share in your vision and make them your advocates. When people feel like they have an impact, they feel empowered. When people feel empowered around you and by you, you win. You WIN people over by asking for advice!

3 things you must dominate & master in business, and thus, to make money doing what you love, are:

1. Sales - You must learn how to get people to enroll in whatever it is you are trying to help them do. Most people are uncomfortable with selling and thus, most people never succeed at doing what they love. Hard truth!

2. Marketing - Master social media and many other means of marketing ourselves and our message so people can find you!

3. Systems - Put systems in place that can be repeated and batched so that you can maximize your time, streamline and take your business to the next level. 

If you are doing what you love, but you aren’t making the money you want to make, think about these 3 things every day - and make sure you do them! It's your "SMS" to success and continuing to do what you love!

Start this week fresh and think about someone you love or someone who means a lot to you. If you know there is something that is really important to them that you should do or been delaying to do, even if you don’t want to do it, just try it. It will mean the world to them, bring you closer together and you may actually surprise yourself and like it. What I call a "win/win"... so let's make it a great week! Get out there and do something with which you are uncomfortable because you love someone... do something for The One You Love!

Rule #7 of The 7 Cardinal Rules in Life is: "SMILE!" You don’t own all the problems in the world. A smile can brighten the darkest day and make life more beautiful. It is a potential curve to turn a life around and set everything straight. So SMILE! No matter how busy and stressed we are, if you just smile, it can turn everything around. Smiling keeps us healthier too, so why not smile? Turn your day and maybe even someone else's day around with a SMILE :) :) :)
