Busy, busy, busy and not getting much done? Overworked, overextended? Not enough hours in the day?
You Get The Idea?
Well here is a tip that has helped some of the top companies in the world get control of their time, money and energy. In Jim Collins book, Good to Great, researchers found common denominators in companies that went from good to great and were able to sustain their market dominance over at least a fifteen year period.
Do What Great Companies Do!
One of the interesting and distinguishing points of difference they discovered about the Good to Great Companies was that not only did they have To Do Lists but they also had Stop Doing Lists.
And the Stop Doing Lists proved to be as important as the To Do Lists.
They Stopped giving their time, energy and money to anything that did not support them in achieving their goal. What a great idea…
Why not start your STOP-DOING list today!

Set Your Intention Everyday… I heard Oprah Winfrey once say that if you can’t spend ten minutes a day to set your intention you don’t deserve the life of your dreams. Recently I was listening to an interview with Jack Canfield, author of the Chicken Soup for the Soul Empire and he was asked to describe his daily routine.
He said the first thing he did every morning was review his goals that he keeps on 3×5 cards next to his bed. Then he takes a few minutes to visualize each goal as being already completed, he allows himself to see, hear and feel the thrill of accomplishing each goal. He also does affirmations and meditates to focus his energy.
In other words, he spends time each day setting his intention. He is focused on a target. He is spending time putting energy into what he wants to create in his life.
This is different than just reviewing a To Do list each day. This is taking a few minutes every day to step back, pause, focus, and declare for yourself what you want in your life. And then to claim it, to see it as already having been accomplished and allowing yourself to start each day feeling the satisfaction and joy that what you want is on its way.
Ask yourself this question; How much time am I currently spending setting my Intention every day? Success leaves clues, pay attention, taking a few minutes each day to set your Intention and get focused on your Goals can change your results dramatically.
Make it a new daily practice to spend at least ten minutes every day to review and visualize your goals, do affirmations, and as Louise Hay says; “Declare for yourself what you want in life! Declare it as though you have it!”
It works for Oprah and Jack and it will work for you too! Every day… Wake Up and Claim It!

Are you ready, here it is…
“Today I am going to commit to stretching, to raising the bar, to playing full-out. I am going to dare to take a giant step outside the boundary of what my ego says I can or cannot do.
I am going to choose in and play life like I mean it and I am going to choose on purpose actions that will propel me forward faster.
I am not going to wait until everything is perfect! I am going to choose instead to make my move now before I am ready because I know that getting ready to get ready is a stall tactic and a form of self sabotage that holds me back and keeps me from getting the results I want.
I am going to act on the assumption that I am good enough, that I know enough, that I have been preparing for a lifetime and that all I need to know I already know. I am not going to find a million reasons today why I can’t, why I don’t have the time, why I don’t have the resources, why I don’t have the connections, why I don’t have the money and on and on and on.
Today I am going to refuse to tolerate my indecision, my lack of clarity, my whining, my excuses and all my crap. Today I am going to take a big, bold leap that feels insanely scary and uncomfortable, and I’m going to do it anyway.
Today I refuse to allow fear to stop me, to hold me back or keep me playing small. Today I am going to do something I have been afraid to do, I am going to let my light shine big and bright. Today I am going to take a stand for me and the life I now intend to live.”
Draw a line in the sand and commit to doing this exercise and taking a stand for you, because, you guessed it… YOU ARE WORTH IT!
