The Leaders Path

Venus Williams

Some people say I have attitude - maybe I do. . . but I think you have to. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does - that makes you a winner right there.

~~ Venus Williams

Venus Williams is known to have an attitude. I don't know Venus personally, but I have watched her play several time. I've seen her on TV countless times and in person at the US Open in Flushing Meadows, NY.

I've heard that she has an attitude. You hear people bad mouthing Venus all the time. But, she is one of the Best Tennis Players of ALL TIME! I don't care who you are. If you watch tennis, you have to agree that she is one of the greatest.

Do she have an attitude? Well, yea, but I agree with what she says in her quote. You have to believe in yourself when no one else does.

Many people did not believe in her. How could a poor black girl from Compton, CA be a tennis player. But she is! And a darn good one. One of the Best!

She deserves to have attitude! Believing in yourself, well, that makes you a winner right there!

Go Out Today and Strut Your Stuff! Be Bold, Be Confident! Believe in Yourself Before Everyone Else Does.

Who is Michael Yublosky

Michael Yublosky retired from corporate America after a successful 30 year direct sales and marketing career. Yublosky’s time is now divided between consulting and doing volunteer work.

Since 2009 Michael has coached small business owners and executive job seekers in using Linked In to network and market their businesses or themselves. He focuses on the importance of using relevant keywords and organic search techniques.

Yublosky’s formula for success on LinkedIn and the Internet is: target market, establish your brand, increase your visibility and get found!  His Web site is DIYWebJem.com where he freely shares what he has learned about Internet marketing.

Michael teaches business leaders how to use Linked In to achieve their personal goals and business goals by using several key techniques and truths.

B 2 C Marketing

Not a sales tool for Business to Consumer

Good for Referral Sources

Good for Sourcing

Secrets to Linked In (there are none)

Relationship building tool - It's a long-term process

Build relationships

Establish your credibility

Step by Step Process

"I have it down to a science."

Trust the Process - John Fox, Coach - Chicago Bears

Trust the Process, Stay the Course - Michael Yublosky added to John Fox's thought.

* What's your plan? - What do you want to do? Who do you want to talk to? What do you want to get found for? What sets you apart?

* Getting Proper Keywords

* Check out competition

* Build a Network - It's know who you know, it's who they know

* Raise Visibility - Do after completing the above. Depends on you. Publishing on Linked In

* Publisher -

* Searchable on Google.

* Use proper keywords.

* Use Markup Language.

* Look at analytics

* Target Marketing - via search, seek out and converse with the people.

 

The Key is Goals

* Know what you want, Where you want to go.

* You have to understand the proper selection of relevant keywords. Relevant to your market and to you competition.

* You have to make a commitment. Do the grunt work, spend the time to do it right.

 

What Quote Hangs on Your Wall

If it is to be, it's up to me.  ~~ William H. Johnsen

 

What Habits Do You Use for Success

* I review my goals regularly.

[app_audio src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/QOD-098_-_Mial_Hamm_final.mp3"]

You may get skinned knees and elbows, but it's worth it if you score a spectacular goal. 

~~Mia Hamm

Mia Hamm is a celebrated, retired, professional soccer player and one of the best in the world. She started on the US National Team at 15 years old and helped the team score many spectacular goals in many National and Olympic matches.

Being an athlete is hard work. Playing soccer is a tough sport, despite being a non-contact sport. To be good, you have to keep practicing and playing to keep getting better. During all the work you have to put in to become a National Team or Olympic Team player you will get a lot of skinned knees and elbows. But like life and business it's worth it, if you score a spectacular goal.

One of Mia's Spectacular Goals these days is the Mia Hamm Foundation.

The Mia Hamm Foundation is a non-profit, national organization dedicated to raising funds and awareness for families in need of a marrow or cord blood transplant and to the development of more opportunities for young women in sports. Check out the Mia Hamm Foundation Website at http://www.miafoundation.org

What's your goal? Are you working toward a "Spectacular Goal"?

Are you getting frustrated? Are you getting tired? Are you getting your "knees and elbows" skinned?

Won't it be worth it if you keep going and score your spectacular goal?

Go Out Today and Shake It Off! Go Out Today and Get That Spectacular Goal You Set.

Oprah Winfrey

Click Below to Listen to Today's Show

[app_audio src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/QOD-097_-_Oprah_Winfrey_-_Personal_Calling_Final.mp3"]

I've come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that's as unique as a fingerprint - and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others as a service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

~~ Oprah Winfrey

A personal calling. . . What is yours? Oprah recognized this truth early on and has provided her calling as a service to others and it has enhanced many lives, including her own.

An AHA Moment

I've said before that I recently experienced an "Aha Moment" where I felt I wasn't doing what I loved or following "My Calling".  Feeling totally depressed, lost and wondering why I was doing what I was doing, I started thinking about what made me happy in all of my "careers".  What did I love to do. What was my calling?

I had picked up a copy of Jeff Goins' book, The Art of Work. Jeff discusses finding your calling in it. Pick it up and read it. There's a link at the bottom of the show notes page on Goal Getting Podcast.com / qod97.

Yes, it's an affiliate link and I will earn a couple dollars if you order it. It's part of that providing a service piece Oprah talks about in her quote.

[amazon template=image&chan=goalgettingpodcast&asin=0718022076]

I Am Happy When

It hit me that I was most happy when:

* I was teaching martial arts classes

* I was developing training and training customers on software.

* I was attending networking events.

* I was helping local businesses grow their business.

* I was building my social media presence.

* I was creating a podcast ( I started my first podcast in 2004 )

* I was working at growing communities that I was involved in.

* I was mentoring team members and people that want to better themselves.

I could go on, but I hope you see the pattern developing. I had to sit down and think and start developing my life to do what I loved and provide a service.

Once I realized my calling and set the goal to change careers to do what I love, things started to fall into place. I started my podcast to share the Goal Achievement Success System I put together and teach people how to Get The Goals They Set. I've started working on creating an online course for the same program.

I mentioned in earlier episodes that I recently changed careers to Internal Community Manager for my company. I now get to do everything that I love, teach, mentor, do social media, blog, all rolled into one position. I am even discussing working with our company to incorporate internal podcasts.

What's Your Personal Calling

The truth is, when I graduated high school I wanted to be a Teacher.  I didn't know how to do that. I was told I couldn't afford to go to college by my family. I was told I wasn't college material. I think the most important thing I thought was Teachers don't make too much money. I wanted a career making money.

The other day I was editing a blog from one of our executives. He was sharing his Best Advice I've Ever Received and it was, "Don't do it for the money." I should have learned that earlier in life.  I can do what I want and still make the money. Especially Today!

. . . the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others as a service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you.

Great advice from Oprah! What is your Personal Calling?

Sit down and think about about in.

Great advice from Oprah! What is your Personal Calling?

Sit down and think about about in. Write down the times when you have been the most happy, the most fulfilled, what were you doing at that time?

If you have a hard time figuring it out, let me know. Email me at [email protected] and we can chat.

I'm sorry I've taken this episode longer than I usually do, but I think it's important to understand what Oprah said in the quote and that you understand how important it is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others as a service, then WORK HARD and also allow the energy or the universe lead you. It won't do it for you, but it will lead you and provide opportunities.

Go Out and Discover Yourself! Go Out Today and be a Service to Others. Go Out and Make Today a Great Day!

My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging.

~~ Hank Aaron

I remember Hammerin' Hank Aaron so well. He was playing for the Atlanta Braves when I was a kid. I used to go to the Braves games and watch him play, always hoping to see him hit a home run.

When I was in high school I remember his drive to beat Babe Ruth's Home Run Record! I remember getting a card or piece of paper celebrating his 715th home run and his beating Babe's record. It was a history making day for him and all of Atlanta celebrated.

Hank Aaron went on to hit a lifetime total of 755 Home Runs before retiring in 1976. He finished as one of the most awarded ball player of all time. He has gone in the record books for breaking and holding many baseball records.

But as Hank will tell you, the key was sticking to it. He kept swinging, whether he was having a good day or a bad day. Whether he was on the field or off, he just kept swinging.

We can learn a lot from Hammerin' Hank Aaron. When you get tired, or frustrated, or just don't seem to be able to go on trying to achieve your goals, Keep Swinging!

Go Out Today and Keep Swinging for the Fences! Get The Goals You Set.

When you're ready to quit, you're closer than you think. There's an old Chinese saying that I think is really true. It goes like this:

"The Temptation to Quit Will Be Greatest Just Before You Are About To Succeed"

~~ Bob Parsons

Wow, do you get frustrated because you've been trying to be successful at something and just don't seem to be able to get the goal you set?  Do you think about quitting?  Do you think you should just hand it up?

That's the feeling our quote is all about. There is a book by Sharon Lechter and an old cartoon about being 3 feet from gold. A prospector is digging for gold and gets frustrated and drops his pick and just 3 feet from where he stops is a vein of Gold Nuggets like you wouldn't believe. The moral of the cartoon and the book is what this quote talks about.

We will be just about to break loose and succeed, but we will be tempted to just quit. It will be greater the closer we are to succeeding. 

What we're trying to say is, DON'T QUIT! The more you feel it the closer you are to achieving your goals.

Ignore the temptation! Just Keep Going! Keep Digging!

Go Out Today and Kick Temptation in the Teeth! Never Quit!
