The Leaders Path

Chase your passion, not your pension.~Denis Waitley

Chase your passion, not your pension. Wow! There is so much wisdom in those 6 words. We often worry so much about the weekly paycheck or saving for social security that we do things we hate for years at a time. Do you know people that go to work every day and hate what they do? Do you get the feeling when you are talking with someone that is doing their job and you can tell they would rather be somewhere else?

[bctt tweet="Chase Your Passion not Your Pension ~~ Denis Waitley" username="GoalsPodcast"]

Are you that way? Why?

Why do you chase the pension or the paycheck? Is that what you really want to be doing?

Are you doing what you do because it's all you know how to do? Are you doing it because your parents wanted you to follow in their footsteps?

What are your passions? What do you love doing? What do you dream about and think about spending your time doing?

I saw a sign the other day that said, "If you think about something, day in and day out, with every waking moment, AND It Makes You Happy, You Should Be Doing That!"

That is so true. Like Denis Waitley said, "Chase your passion, not you pension." Quit working at something you hate, just to get paid.

If you have something that you love, that makes you happy when you do it and think about it, You should be doing that.

How can you turn that passion into a paycheck or a pension. Now, very few people get pensions these days, but that correlates today to passive income. Working today to be able to get paid later without working.

What can you do with your passion to make it a paying proposition? What can you do to earn an income and even better a Passive Income from it.

If you chase your passion, you will get fulfillment and satisfaction out of it. You will enjoy going to work each day. You will be happy.

Take Denis Waitley's advice; "Chase Your Passion, Not Your Pension."

Set a goal this week to define your passion. What is it? How can I do more of it and how can I earn an income from it.

Set a goal to start working on the action steps it will take to turn your passion into a paycheck.

What is your passion? Let me know in the comments section. Let me know what would make you happy, fulfilled, satisfied. Let's work together to get you on the right track to Get The Goals You Set.

Go Out Today and Turn Your Passion Into a Paycheck

Mirror mirror on the wall, I'll always get up after I fall. And whether I run, walk or I have to crawl, I'll set my goals, and achieve them all.

My friend, Carla Terry, shared this rhyme on Facebook. It was a good rhyme but also makes a great quote. This is a great positive saying that you, I and everyone should say in the morning when we get out of bed and look in the mirror. It is the last thing we should say after we brush our teeth before bed at night. You should print this saying and tape it to the mirror so you don't forget to do it.

My sister tells me she knew I would be successful at what I did, because she remembers when I was a kid, I taped "I will be rich!" onto the mirror in our bathroom and on my dresser.

This quote is a great statement of faith. Faith in your ability to set goals and to do what it takes to achieve them.

Failure will not stop me. I will get up again if I fall.

No matter what I have to do - run, walk or crawl - I will set my goals and I will achieve them all.

Tell yourself this every day! Tell yourself this morning and night. Tell yourself you will be successful at achieving your goals. Then run, walk or crawl to do what it takes to achieve those goals and you will be successful at achieving those goals.

Go Out Today and Tell Yourself You Will Be Successful At Whatever Goal You Set

What holds most people back is not the quality of their ideas but the lack of faith in their ideas.

- Russell Simmons

Click Below to Listen to Today's Show

[app_audio src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E25_Russell_Simmons_Final.mp3"]

Russell Simmons is a great businessman and entertainer. He meets people with great ideas frequently. This is a common problem for people. Many people have great ideas. Many of these ideas are life changing, or could be. But, because they have a lack of faith in their ideas, people don't act on those ideas. Why do they not have faith in their ideas?

Many of these people suffer from various issues like fears, the Imposter Syndrome and limiting beliefs in our subconscious mind. They are intelligent people with dreams and serious ideas, but for some reason, they lack the faith that what they want to do is important.

The subconscious mind can work against us. Yes, our own subconscious mind. The programming of our subconscious mind happens when we are young. It can develop limiting beliefs that will prevent us from seeing our own value. It will allow us to see ourselves as inferior and not worthy of the ideas we create. These limiting beliefs will cause us to have no faith in the ideas we present.

You can overcome your subconscious mind's limiting beliefs. You can turn this lack of faith into belief and success by following the Goal Achievement Success Systems Mental Bank Method. This systematic approach to reprogramming our subconscious mind will turn out limiting beliefs into positive success oriented beliefs that will give you the faith you need in your ideas to get them created.

Try to improve by 1% every day. Within a year you will have improved more than 365%.

What a simple thought. Ron Broussard, my friend from Atlanta, Georgia is the founder of Etheos Consulting and runs StretchYourself.org. Ron is a great motivator and an inspiration to many. This thought from Ron is so simple yet so effective.

Try to improve by 1% every day.  That is a goal that most people can achieve. What does it take to improve by 1%? That obviously depends on where you are at, but just improving your current state by 1% is relatively easy.

If you improve yourself by 1% every day and do it every day of the year, you will have improved by 365% percent. Wouldn't you like to be 365% better at something by the end of the year? What could you be if you improved 365% this year. What will you do to improve by 1% each day?

Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better. Don't wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom.

- Special Forces Association Chapter 60 , Tampa Bay

[app_audio src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E23_3_Wishes_You_Should_Make_Final.mp3"]

This quote was shared by a friend of mine in a Special Ops branch of the United Stated Military. Special Ops members don't ever wish for it to be easier. None of the members I know whine or wish things were better. They look at challenges and problems as opportunities to hone their skills, whether they are military skills or civilian skills.

If you had a genie that would grant you 3 wishes, these are the three you should wish for:

Wish you were better -

If you were better at what you were doing, you would be better than most of the people doing it. People that are able to do things better than other people in their field are the most sought after for those skills. They can charge more money than the others. I used this wish to make myself better at skills that I needed to get the goal I set to be a consultant back in my early IT career. I became better than most people at this skill and was able to charge $150 - $250 per hour for those skills.  If it was easier and everyone could do what I did, I wouldn't have been able to charge that type of fee. Don't wish it were easier, wish you were better.

Wish for more skills -

The skills I became better at that I mentioned above was a limited skill. It was limited by time. It was used on a DOS-based software application or an IBM Midrange computer. OK, some of you may not know what that is, but DOS was a pre-Windows and IOS operating system. Yes, it was a Microsoft operating system and as you can guess, it ran it's life course and those specific skills eventually became useless.  So, what do you do? You learn new skills. There are new problems that arise. These new problems require new skills.  I have been called a Jack of All Trades. That not necessarily a good thing, but there are some careers that now look for generalists. However, I never consider my self just a Jack of All Trades. I like to say that I am a "Jack of All Trades and A Master of Some". I realized at an early age that by becoming the best at, a master at specific skills, would give me an advantage over others. It would also prepare me for the event that an industry, or career path required a pivot, I would be skilled in many areas.  There are many problems out there. Learn more skills. Learn skills that can transfer to many areas.  Don't wish for fewer problems, wish for more skills.

Wish for more wisdom -

Like a multi-skilled person a wise person that can solve problems and challenges is highly sought after.  Someone that looks for challenges and ways to overcome or solve those challenges are desired in the workforce. In today's environment, bringing wisdom to your space will bring you greater value. Being able to understand the fine nuances of people, technology and processes will propel you in your career, in whatever industry it is.  Gain wisdom by studying the ins and outs of the industry, the problems and challenges in whatever you do. Be able to work out the answers to challenges and you will be in demand. Don't wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom.

When you wish upon a star,  these three wishes will take you far. 

On A star, in a deep well or a fountain, these 3 wishes will take you up a mountain.

Every test in life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to break us or make us.

The choice is ours whether we become Victim or Victor.

- Tammy S. Ernst

 

Click Below to Listen to Today's Show

[app_audio src="http://traffic.libsyn.com/goalgettingpodcast/S2-E22_Tammy_Ernst_Final.mp3"]

Tammy Ernst sounds like she trained at the same martial arts school as me. This quote from Tammy is very similar to the "mantra" we stated at the beginning and end of each class in our dojo.

Shiken haramitsu daikoumyo

This sacred Buddhist mantra in Japanese is taught and used by all members of the Bujinkan Dojo. The meaning as explained by my Sensei when I started training was:

"In every encounter or experience in life, we have the chance to gain total enlightenment. It's up to us to determine if those experiences are positive or negative."

This phrase became my mantra for life. This is how I like to look at the experiences I have in life. I try to look at all of them as positive as I can.

You can see how Tammy's quote is so similar.

Every test in life makes us bitter or better, every problem comes to break us or make us. The choice is ours whether we become Victim or Victor.

We choose whether we will be better or bitter. We choose to let our experiences break us or make us. We choose to be the Victim or the Victor. It's a tough choice for some, easy for many. Unfortunately, most people choose to be the Victim. They choose to let the tough life experiences break them, they choose to be bitter.

What do you choose? Are you a Victim or a Victor? Are you going to let life's experiences break you or make you. Will you choose bitterness or Betterness!

Join me in choosing to be a Victor. Join me in letting life Make Us into what we want to be, Better!
