How to Control Our Own Circus

Sunday, September 18th, 2011

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

Note: Coming, October 7-8, is my Prosperity Summit with Mike Richardson in Newport Beach, California.
You can bring up to 5 people with you for one admission price. Let’s take you and your company to the next level.
Details: www.prosperitysummits.com

Recently, when I was in the Sarasota, Florida, area for two speaking engagements, I stopped by the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art on Ringling Plaza.

This area was literally the world headquarters for the circus. The Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus.

Started in 1870 by a gentleman named Ringling, in Wisconsin, the circus eventually became a worldwide phenomenon. He had seven sons. His youngest son was John Ringling.

The other sons all participated in the circus. John was the one with business sense and he built the circus into a worldwide attraction.

In the winters, in nearby Venice, Florida, is where the circus had its winter home. John Ringling and his wife Mable brought a lot of culture to the Sarasota area. They built an art museum, which to this day still attracts many visitors. Behind the art museum is their incredible original home in the area. They had several other homes around the country. But, the one in Sarasota was magnificent.

The reason I want to talk to you about the circus is that all of us, these days, at one point or another, feel like our lives are like a circus.

There are three rings all around us. There are all kinds of challenges. We may feel like a ringmaster, trying to deal with all of the stress.

We have financial challenges, health and work challenges, and challenges with relationships. Sometimes it’s just a little too much as we try to keep all of those plates spinning.

What if we could focus on the most valuable thing first? Would that help us to ease up on the feeling of being in the middle of a circus? I think so.

When we think of too many things at one time, the mind goes around in circles and we’re not affective in any one direction. I want calm and peacefulness for you.

Declare the affirmation below, the first thing every morning and the last thing each night, and see how productive it can be. Let’s let the term “circus” mean a fun evening under the big top instead of too much stress.

I hope to see you Wednesday morning on Lifetime Television on The Balancing Act, 7-8 a.m. Easter and Pacific time.
If you wish to book me for a speaking event, my number is 619-723-3007.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined for greatness. You are a Champion!

Turning On the Faucet to Your Great Future

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

I recently conducted a seminar for a great group of CEO’s and their spouses in Kohler, Wisconsin.

This community is located about 4 miles west of Sheboygan, close to Lake Michigan, about an hour north of Milwaukee and a couple of hours north of Chicago.

I stopped by the world headquarters of the Kohler Corporation. You probably know them. If you’ve stayed in any beautiful hotels, and turned on the faucets in the bathroom, they probably had the Kohler label.

In my remodeling work in the past I’ve used some of their beautiful products in beautiful bathrooms.

The reason I want to talk to you about the Kohler Corporation is that it has a wonderful and interesting history.

The company was founded in 1873 by John Michael Kohler. He was originally from Austria, where my father was from. It was in 1899 that he bought about 29 acres, west of Sheboygan, and that eventually became Kohler Village in 1912.

It is a beautiful community, beautifully laid out because of a couple of master plans. In 1917 the company had a 50-year master plan created for the area around the main plant in Kohler Village.

The plan showed how streets were to be laid out, what was to be built, how the village was to be developed over 50 years. And then again, in 1977, they created a second 50-year plan for the development of the area. No wonder it has turned out to be such a beautiful community.

The Kohler corporation now operates on 6 continents around the world, over 10,000 employees, with over a billion dollars a year in sales. There’s something in the two 50-year plans that they created for Kohler Village that is a message to all of us.

Why don’t we sit down and write out our long-range plan? Where do we want out life to be in 10, 20, or 30 years? Too often we think too close. What do we have to do today or tomorrow?

What if we laid out a long-range plan on paper and then backed it up and decided what needs to be done in the next year in order to move ahead with that long-range plan?

Written goals make all the difference in the world. Only 3% of the people in the world have written goals. And they are the ones who seem to accomplish the most in life.

So, if you want to turn on the faucet, so the speak, on a great future for yourself, why not write down your long-range plan. Divide it into short and intermediate goals and then focus on the short-term goals.

Before you know it, you’ll be amazed with what a great future you will have.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined for greatness. Have a powerful day!

Adjusting Your Course

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

On a recent trip to St. Louis, Missouri, for a seminar, I stopped by the famous Gateway Arch, the symbol of the expansion of the United States to the West.

It was completed in 1965 at a cost of $13 million. This monument is in commemoration of Thomas Jefferson and the great deeds that he did with the Louisiana Purchase and expanding the United States to the west coast.

It was not far from the Gateway Arch that, in 1804, the Lewis and Clark Expedition took off.

The Gateway Arch is the tallest of our national monuments in the United States. It is 608 feet tall and 608 feet wide at the base.

There is a tramway system inside the arch that takes over a million people a year up to the top to observe the entire area.

There is something unique about the tramway in the Gateway Arch. Since the arch curves, that tramway does not go straight up. In order to keep the passenger cars level as they go up the curved arch, there are many adjustments along the tramway.

Isn’t that a lesson in life?

Many times, life for us is not a straight line. Life sometimes throws us a curve. And, if we don’t learn to adjust as we go, if we don’t learn to take those difficult moments a little easier, life is going to be really tough for us.

So, may I suggest for you, if you have a difficult time adjusting to the challenges of the economy, of your health, of the weather, or whatever, that you realize that you can adjust easily.

May I suggest an affirmation that helps us deal better with the curves of life: I adjust easily to the curves that I see in life.

It’s not what happens. It’s how we react. Thus, it’s all about our attitude toward challenges that makes the big difference.

By adjusting our attitude, I believe that we will be able to move up to the top a little smoother.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined in greatness. I see it in you – you are a Champion. Have a powerful day!

Your Declaration of No Worry

By Boaz · Comments (0)
Sunday, October 24th, 2010

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

While on a recent trip to Washington, D.C., where I did a series of seminars, I visited the Jefferson Memorial.

This amazing memorial is in honor of an amazing man who was instrumental in the birth of the United States of America.

Thomas Jefferson was well known for the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. He also sponsored the Lewis and Clark Expedition that found the Northwest Passage. He did some amazing things.

The reason I want to talk about Thomas Jefferson is the fact that he authored The Declaration of Independence. I think we each need to author our own Declaration of Independence.

Some of us, during these trying times, whether it be financial challenges or maybe there are health challenges, have become prone to worry – a little too much worry.

My feeling is that stress is the number one killer in this country. If we can get control of worry, I think that might help us a lot to be able to open our eyes to opportunities and to improve our situation.

Dale Carnegie wrote a wonderful book called “How to Stop Worrying and Start Living”. In it he said that we must live in day tight compartments.

Consider as if you were living in a room with a door behind you and one in front of you. The door behind you is to yesterday and it is locked permanently. The door ahead of you is to tomorrow and it does not open up until midnight tonight.

So, all we’ve got is today – this very room. And, if you’re worried about something, then write down what is the worst that could happen. Just write down what is the worst that could happen.

Then write down what you would do to improve on that if it did happen. Then you’ll realize that you’ve got a solution. Carnegie said that, by just writing it down and looking at it, that will help you to relax.

Again, he said to live in day tight compartments. The question is: “What can I do about it today?”

May I suggest that you now use Carnegie’s idea and declare your own independence from worry. I believe that the following affirmation, stated out loud the first thing every morning and the last thing each night, for at least 30 days, will help.

If you were totally confident about your life and your future, would you worry about anything?

The Balance of Your Power

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

Ever since my family immigrated to the United States from Israel in 1956, I have felt a great sense of patriotism for the country.

Whenever I visit Washington, D.C., I am always moved by the history and symbolism of the nation’s capitol. That was the case on a recent visit to the area as I conducted a number of seminars.

The Capitol Building is one of those historical sites that is grand and enduring. Situated on a slight elevation, the Capitol Building is one mile away from the Washington Monument and 2.2 miles from the Lincoln Memorial.

The significance of the Capitol Building is that in 1791 the United States had no capitol. At that time, Congress met in eight different cities throughout the Northeast.

It was decided that there should be a 10 mile square area, either out of Virginia or out of Maryland, that would end up being the Capitol of the United States of America.

The portion that was chosen was the 10 mile square area in Maryland and the Capitol Building was begun. It was built and then it was burned down. It was then re-built and enlarged.

The message from the U.S. Capitol Building, for you and me, is that on one side is the Senate and on the other side is the House of Representatives. It’s just like our minds. There are two portions to our minds – the positive and the negative.

And, if we don’t watch the balance between the two, the negative side will naturally have more power. Because, for whatever reason, it’s easier to be negative.

All of us, including me, have to work at balancing just like the Congress has to balance power in the nation’s Capitol. We have to balance between the negative and the positive sides of our minds.

It doesn’t mean we disregard whatever is not going well in our lives. It’s just a matter of re-focusing toward the positive.

So, if you look at something that didn’t work out right in your life, how about using a line that says, “That may be so, but here is what I can do about it.”

What I’m saying is let’s work with a positive affirmation every day so that we can balance and move toward the positive more than we do toward the negative. Just like balancing the house of power in Washington.

Focusing on the positive. Now that is a capitol idea!

George Washington and Your Definite Purpose

By Boaz · Comments (0)
Sunday, October 3rd, 2010

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

After doing a seminar in the Washington, D.C., area recently, I drove by the Washington Monument. What an amazing monument to an amazing man – George Washington, the father of the United States of America.

The monument is 555 feet tall and 55 feet across at the base. It was built between the years 1848 and 1884. The builders kept running out of money and there was the matter of the Civil War during that time. It cost a total of $1,817,000.

The Washington Monument stands for someone who was truly incredible – the first president of the United States of America. He was the Commander in Chief of the armed forces during the Revolutionary War with England.

Can you imagine trying to pull together a group of farmers and volunteers who don’t necessarily want to be there? And you don’t have enough money. You don’t have the armaments you need. You don’t have the proper clothing or food to keep this army together. And yet they win the Revolutionary War.

What about the time Washington spent the winter in Valley Forge? Many of his men were freezing and didn’t have food. But Washington had something that Napoleon Hill talks about in the book “Think and Grow Rich” – Definiteness of Purpose.

George Washington had Definiteness of Purpose. His purpose was to create a new country – to win the Revolutionary War and create the United States of America.

And that definiteness of purpose helped Washington to move through, get over any obstacles, and they won against the military might of Great Britain.

So, my question to you and me is: What can we have more definiteness of purpose about in our lives? Is it about our relationships, about our finances, about our career?

What can we do this week to focus more on our most important definite purpose?

Perhaps it’s time to stake an emotional monument to something important and take action to achieve it.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined for greatness. I see it in you. You are a Champion. Have a powerful day.

Taking Control Of Your Power

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

Recently, when conducting a series of seminars in the Washington, D.C., area, I stopped by to see The White House.

It was in 1790 that President George Washington decided that the federal government would reside in the District of Columbia. He worked with the French architect Pierre L’Enfante to design the city and specifically to choose the site at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue for The White House, the President’s house.

The cornerstone was laid in 1792 and the first President to move into The White House was John Adams with his wife Abigail in the year 1800.

The White House symbolizes POWER all over the world. It symbolizes real POWER.

Too many people in this day and age, with financial challenges, health challenges, and so forth, feel like they have lost their power.

It is my feeling that power does not reside outside of us. It doesn’t matter what the government is doing, what the weather is doing, what the economy is doing, the real power resides in our mind – the 6 inches between our ears.

Do you realize that is the only thing we have total control over? Our thoughts. So, it’s not what happens. It’s how we react. That’s what my mother always told me: “It’s not what happens. It’s how we react. The choice is the reaction.”

May I suggest that you turn those thoughts inwardly and declare positive affirmations of the way you want to see the world. Chances are that you will declare and receive more of the good things that could be coming towards you.

I believe that declaring the following affirmation, the first thing every morning and the last thing each night, for at least 30 days, will begin to help most anyone to re-take their power.

You are special. You are unique. You are destined for greatness. I see it in you – You are a Champion! Have a powerful day!

Taking Care of Your Business

After a recent seminar in Memphis, Tennessee, I stopped by Graceland, the home of Elvis Presley. It’s on Elvis Presley Boulevard, not far from the Memphis Airport.

Across the street from the palatial grounds of the home are parked Elvis’ two airplanes. The larger one is an impressive four engine jet named The Lisa Marie, after Elvis’ daughter.

On the tail of that airplane are the following three letters: TCB. That stood for “Taking Care of Business”.

No matter what Elvis was doing, whether preparing for a concert or preparing for a movie, he always took care of business. Meaning he took care of the most important details and he did them well.

What if you and I took that theory and applied it to every day of our lives? What if we asked ourselves, the first thing every morning, “What is the most valuable thing I should be doing today? (Repeat) What is the most valuable thing I should be doing today?” And then go ahead and do it.

And, if you get distracted, come back to it. As long as you get that single most valuable thing done today, I believe that you’ll be amazed with how much you can accomplish over time.

When you do that, you’ll by applying Elvis Presley’s theory of “Taking Care of Business”.

You are unique. You are special. You are destined for greatness. I see it in you, you are a Champion!

How’s Your Discipline

By Boaz · Comments (0)
Monday, August 16th, 2010

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

Between recent speaking events in Delaware and Maryland, I took some time to stop by the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis. The town of Annapolis, on Chesapeake Bay, is a quaint and beautiful community.

It is not only the State Capitol of Maryland, but also the home of the Naval Academy. Established in 1845, this is the second oldest military academy in the United States, only second after West Point.

I’ve known a number of people who attended Annapolis and established themselves with enviable records in the military.

One thing I learned from the graduates of Annapolis, as I’m sure is the case at other military academies, is that at Annapolis they teach discipline. Because, without discipline, you cannot have a military force and you cannot have order.

The same thing applies in our own personal lives. If we don’t have discipline, then our life is in disarray.

So, this message is about establishing some discipline in various areas of our lives.

If you don’t have enough discipline when it comes to money, something simple that you can do is lower your standard of living a little bit, save that money, and pay off some debts. Also, pay in cash. That establishes some discipline when it comes to money.

Concerning your health, I know that the cadets at Annapolis keep in great shape because they exercise regularly. I don’t like exercising any more than you do, but having had a heart condition in the past I realize that it’s important.

So, whether I like it or not, I do a treadmill two or three times a week for 30 minutes to keep in shape. That is my form of discipline when it comes to exercise.

If it’s discipline in your relationship that you need to improve, take the time to go out and spend special time on a regular basis with someone special in your life. Whether it’s Date Night or whatever you may choose to do regularly, establish some discipline and make that relationship important to you.

If it’s a career discipline you need to improve, then look at what you’re doing in your life and look for ways to improve wherever you are or look for other ways to establish a new career.

I believe that you’re now establishing some very important discipline in your life because you are special, you are unique, you are destined for greatness. I see it in you – you are a Champion!

Have a powerful day!

What If a Hurricane Came Through Your Life

By Boaz · Comments (0)
Sunday, July 4th, 2010

CLICK HERE TO “TAKE ME TO THE NEXT LEVEL”

On a recent speaking trip to Galveston, Texas, I learned about the extent of damage that Hurricane Ike caused when it smashed into that community at 2:10 in the morning on September 13, 2008.

However, in the time since that tragedy, I saw on my visit the amazing progress that the residents of Galveston have made.

The people of southeastern Texas are resilient. They get things done. They stand up and take action. As I drove around town, I was truly amazed with the progress they had made since Hurricane Ike.

I found the town alive and breathing and a wonderful place to come and visit for a vacation.

So, the message here is about getting things done.

We all, at one time or another, have a hurricane either literally or figuratively come through our lives and then we just don’t know what to do.

Well, the champions just start with step one.

So, if a house like one of the many new ones I saw being built in Galveston was demolished in a hurricane, the first step to recovery would be to pick up a piece of wood and put it in the trash. The idea is to pick up the mess and clean up.

That’s the first step.

Some things in life are tension-relieving while others are goal-achieving. So, I found when I was in a difficult situation, that if I focused on those goals that were goal-achieving, I went much further and I was able to make great progress.

Great power is generated when we take action quickly on something that has to be done, something that is goal-achieving.

I believe you do exactly that when you’re faced with a storm.
