No Reserves. No Retreat. No Regrets

6/21/2020

0 Comments

 
Here is another lesson that I recently got from John O'Leary's book, "In Awe" and he brought up this thought of No Reserves.  No retreat.  No regrets.  He mentions this mindset from a story of William Borden (click on his name for his amazing story.)

No Reserves

This was a reminder to Borden to make sure he was taking everything he had, all of his gifts, all of his thoughts & insights of things, all of his kindness & compassion; and to put it all out there for being a difference maker to others.  To really be a light for someone else's darkness.  I take this as Sam Crowley always says, to use up all the toothpaste in our tube of what our lives are.  Not to be on our deathbed with things still left undone, unsaid to others and things not tried.  It's something that has been on my mind more and more in my own life.  (that's why this post hit close to home for me.)

No Retreat

Borden wrote of this as to not go back home to an easier life, one with money, priviledge, etc.  He found strength in that to help keep him focused on what his mission in life was.  This reminds me to not retreat back to an easy life.  Remember, looking to make things easy now, in our early life - it will make things much more difficult later in life.  We need to reverse this.  Work hard now in our lives, things will be difficult and challenging, but later in life, it will get better.  Everything I now do are grounded in the fact that I'm proud of being a teacher and a coach and I know that I have made a difference with so many people and look to continue to do so.   No retreat from being an educator.

No Regrets

This one ties it all in.  John O'Leary wrote "don't get to the end of your journey and realize the life you lived was not yours.  Don't forget that you are free to choose.  Right now."  We all have THE CHOICE for how we live our lives.  If we don't like where we are going or where we are at, we can change things in our own life.  We can think differently, we can make different choices, we can choose to get better.   This also brings in the fact of (at least to me) how we can't continue to blame others or blame the circumstances that happen to us. 

Unfortunately in today's times, I see this happening way too much and to tell you that I don't want to be a part of that way of thinking.  I think the blame game that so many people are playing is a direct recipe to have plenty of regrets in life, to retreat from things that will help us in the long run, and to have tons of reserves in our tank when we die.  Not taking responsibility for our own lives will lead to the opposite of all three of these.   Bottom line, I'm looking to take control of my life in these 3 areas.  For example (as so many people are getting worked up about this) I'm not going to let any elected official be the difference maker in my life.  Doesn't matter who is in any elected position in any form of our government as to how I choose to live my life and that I need to make sure that I follow this formula:  No reserves.  No retreat.  No regret.  How about you?

Time To Show Up

6/18/2020

Got out of the old comfort zone today - I recorded this podcast along with a Facebook Live video a few days ahead of time.  I found something from John O'Leary's book "In Awe" that I really wanted to share with you.  It was Ch. 28 on Showing Up!  He talked about waking up - getting out of our own way and stop being fearful about doing things we know we have to do. 

This hit home with me and I hope it does with you too.  We tend to be our own worst enemy and we hold ourselves back throughout most of our lives.   The funny thing is that this finally clicked with me to actually follow up and get a blog post out, like I always have in my show notes on by podcasts.  Too many things from the book "In Awe" that have hurt as I read them.  To live like I want to live, like I know I can - I need to keep working on myself and I need to ramp up the effort in doing so.  I've always put thing off - it's finally hurting enough to stay the same, and actually hurting less to change.  I hope this gives you something to think about and we all need to wake up to fixing our own mindsets.

Prudence - wait, what??

2/12/2020

0 Comments

 
The character trait of Prudence is one we don't hear too much about.  In fact, if you are like me you had to do a double take at it and then probably look it up.   Here it is:  "The ability to do the right thing, at the right time for the right reason."   It's about our decisions and how they affect us now and in our future!

There were 2 videos that I had my students check out for some indications of Regrets that some people shared about their lives.  If we can recognize when we are in a moment that our choices and decisions will matter for our future - that's powerful to know about.   First was this video "Life Lessons from 100 Year Olds" where they interviewed 3 people that were over 100 years of age.  One big thing that I noticed from all three, were their smiles and laughter.  Amazingly inspiring listening to these people sharing stories of things that they have been through.  I also thought right away, how I want to be like that too.  Being full of gratitude, energy, love, purpose to get up everyday, etc.  What a blessing it was to watch, listen and learn from them.

The other video was just as meaningful as we watched 70 people talk about their regrets in life.  This video was titled, "70 People Ages 5-75 Answer: What Do You Regret?"   It was again, amazing to listen to their experiences and thoughts about things that they have been through.  Learning from other people's stories and experiences saves us from making similar mistakes.  We can learn without making those same choices or at least better understand things before we still might make those choices.   Most of my students learned a lot from this one too.  For me, the few that were older than me... twenty-two of them, got me thinking about what is coming for me in the years ahead and I think often of these lessons as I'm trying to make good choices & decisions every day of my life.  Amazing things can happen when we look at things differently and start to think differently too.  In fact, I'm getting emotional right now blogging about these thoughts and ideas.  I'm finding myself wanting to be better, do better, work harder, to have the courage to do things that help me go after my dreams and goals... like I said, amazing things can happen when we jump into these thoughts and ideas.  How about you join me?  Check these videos out and let me know what you are thinking and feeling.

Optimism Is Key - At least in my opinion

2/7/2020

0 Comments

 
This was a powerful post that my students worked on - a few weeks ago - I'm getting off of the procrastination train, and finally getting these going, like I told them I would!  There were 2 key parts that I used for this one - both from John O'Leary.

First was a blog post that he put out there about "How Heros Speak".  In this post he mentioned about a pro hockey player that invested time in with him when he was a little boy, recovering from his burns that were part of John's story early on in his life.  It's all about the people that speak words into our hearts, souls, minds, etc., throughout our lifetime.  These heros don't necessarily wear capes either, but the do interject such powerful belief into us that it ends up making a HUGE difference in our lives.  He brought up the other fact about the truth is that we are supposed to be the same hero for others. There are other people out there, ones we don't even know perhaps, but we are the difference-makers that they need in their lives. 

I have believed this ever since I was probably in college as that's when I found out how important it was to have people believing in me for my life.  Dr. Wells Cook was the biggest influencer in my life, next to my parents and my wife - that truly made a huge difference with me.  His encouraging words pointed me into being an educator.  What a ride it has been from first meeting him back in the fall of 1985.  That also happens to be the time I met my wife as well, at the same university - Central Michigan University!  From then until now - these two people (again, other than my parents) have changed my life in so many incredible ways!  Not sure where I'd be without them.

I love this part of his post & I now it is speaking to you as well:  "Your great opportunity, my friend, is to realize the truth that you are intended to be a hero for others. My encouragement before you grab your cape or hockey stick and race out the door is to realize this: your ability to positively impact others hinges on your own thoughts and your own words.
Rudyard Kipling wrote, “Words are, of course, the most powerful drug used by mankind.” As with any drug, our words can be either life-giving or life-depleting. Choose today to use your words to encourage others to take back their life, ignite their possibility and change their world.
And in wondering where to begin sharing heroic optimism with others, consider starting with the reflection in the mirror."

The second part of this assignment came from his video clip.  In it he asks us to follow our own minds and to catch ourselves when we start going down a negative road as far as our thoughts and comments go.  Try to write them down & find some replacements for them, with more positive and encouraging thoughts & words.  I mentioned this to my students and have always told my basketball players this too.  Nobody else can do as much damage & hurt us, more than we can do it to ourselves.  I've been working on catching myself quicker when I start going down that negative rabbit hole to problems & negativity.  I need to find ways to eliminate problems, not head into more.

Let me know your thoughts on these 2 items.   I think they are simply pure gold. Heck, anything from John O'Leary usually is.   Check him out HERE at his website.  He's got his 2nd book coming out in May 2020.  Check out his first book before you read his new one.  You'll love it!

Self Control Is Vital!

12/16/2019

0 Comments

 
Coach John Wooden has his Pyramid of Success with so many great ideas and success principles and there is a reason why Coach John Wooden says this is the most important traits of his Pyramid of Success.  It reminds me of the saying that says it's a long road to the top and a short drop to the bottom.  Self Control in all aspects of life is important and it's important for us to take ownership of this as we are the only ones that control it in our own lives.  When you look around, it's easy to see how this is a trait that many people simply don't have.  It's something that I know I need to work on in my life, every day.  That last quote is HUGE - "Control yourself so others wont' have to do it for you."  Nothing worse than choosing to give control away to others by not taking ownership for it ourselves.   There is nobody else that can have your best interests in mind (and heart) compared to you doing it for yourself.  Again - this is something I need to work on each and every day for myself.

Words Affect Others

12/1/2019

0 Comments

 
I found two great examples of words affecting others.  This is something that is so vitally important to to take with us in our everyday lives.  I got to thinking about our words - they are in written from, spoken to others and finally they are thoughts in our own heads too.   Each of these is very powerful in what they can do to ourselves and others.

This first example is a very powerful and short video with such a powerful message.  Check this video out HERE.  This man is sitting with a sign and people are going about their daily business, not paying too much attention to him.  Well, that all changes when a lady comes along and makes a HUGE change that helps this guy out in an amazing way.  (I'm not going to give it away, it's something you need to watch to see it for yourself.)  I always feel like I need to work harder at being a better person (which I do even if I don't watch this video).  I have so much work to do with this and I want to pride myself every day to be better. 

Secondly - this podcast from Oprah, this is a must listen to.  In fact, there are 2 parts.  So after you are done listening to part 1, make sure you get connected to part 2 as well.  Both of these podcast episodes are 2 of my all-time favorites.  Dr. Maya Angelou is a very powerful difference maker and she shares some HUGE ideas about how important words are not only for others, but also for ourselves.  The information that she has in parts 1 and 2, are simply PURE GOLD!  Make sure you check out both episodes. 

All that I know is that words are powerful difference makers.  I've seen the difference they can make for ourselves and others - words that are thoughts, words that are spoken, and for sure words that are written.  Seeing that we speak all the time - it's important to see how to do it well and to also pick up any tips we can for making a huge difference throughout life for us.  I would love to have a conversation about this or other topics that that you have some ideas about.

Become Courageous

11/8/2019

0 Comments

 
​ This week's blog assignment had a couple of things to check out.  First was this video, "Become Courageous - A  Motivational Video" had so many great reflections for us to use on ourselves.  One of the first things that really jumped out to me was this thought "What would your life look like if you decided to be courageous?"  WOW... I've never really heard that question asked before, let alone try to apply it to myself. It's a really powerful one if you take it to heart.  I start to think about the many areas that I need to be more courageous in my life and I find it encouraging to think about the results that might come my way with having more courage in those areas.  One is for sure to keep going after my dream of doing more with podcast, writing a book (or more than one), developing a few video/audio courses, and other things.  I can see myself doing it - I just need to get through the limiting beliefs that are holding me back.  Nobody's fault other than my own.    Do me a favor, ask yourself that question above and get back to me on any thoughts you may have.

Another question from this first video is "What would your life look like if you decided not to care what other people thought of you?"  For one thing, I do care what some people think of me - those that I love and care for, the important people in my life.  My family, close friends, etc.  Others?  The critics in the world?  The negative ones?  NO WAY!  I need to not let their opinions hold me back - especially since their opinions don't pay my bills!!  How are you with this one??  For some people they worry way too much what others think about them.

​The other video link - "Golden Buzzer - Kodi Lee" showed a super talented young man who is blind and is autistic, show tremendous courage when he did a 5 STAR performance on America's Got Talent.  The look on the judges faces were something to see, especially Simon.  ;-)    This emotional and super-powerful performance is something that you need to check out.  Since we are talking about bravery & courage, check out Kodi's mom.  Talk about a lady who is brave and strong, but one who has so much compassion for her son.  That is another huge lesson for all us as the world needs more of those traits now.  This story really sends the message that we all are totally capable of doing great things as people with so many more difficulties and challenges are doing great things in their lives.  I asked myself, what is my excuse as to why I'm not doing more things that I know I want to do, and even more importantly - I need to do them.   How about you?

​Finally, I put out a challenge to my students (and myself too) to have the courage to see what we can individually do to unplug from forms of technology that are really getting in the way and causing us problems.  Whether it's our phones, computers, video games, etc.  This is a powerful reflection moment for us to do some checking to see where we can have some self-improvement.  I know I need to maybe switch my time on technology devices to be more productive. There are things that I need to spend time on - there are a couple of training / educational / self-improvement items that need my attention, compared to other non-productive things that I do with technology.  I see this happening in school and in all around life way too often and the sad thing about it is that most of the people don't see themselves doing anything wrong or negative.  Time is one of THE most important resources we have and we seem to be "wasting" it more and more when it comes to technology.  What would you challenge yourself to get better at with technology?

Learning About Creativity & It's Importance In Life

10/30/2019

For this week's Positivity Project term about Creativity, I had to admit to myself and my students that this is (at first) was a rough one for me.  You see, I don't really consider myself as a creative person.  I do see, like most people, that I am a bigger critic with myself than any other person could ever be.  So as I read and listened to the author that wrote "Creative Solutions To Life's Challenges" I got both views - one from the essay he wrote and then the other from the audio of him reading what he wrote.  Frank Walker did a great job with this piece.  

This helped me right away to see that I am more creative than I think I am.  It got me thinking about my parents when I was growing up and how creative they were along with my family members at the time - grandparents, aunts & uncles, friends of my parents, etc.  They all gave me lessons in creativity every day of my life it seems.  Now that I am in my 50's I can say I'm more creative in things in my life, but not to the extent that they all were (from what I remembered) every day in their lives.  Great lessons none-the less.

I also connected with the fact that I can't let labels that some may put on my on what I do for a living, limit me and my confidence.  Like many things, I have a choice as to what I do and not do with taking in other people's opinions about just because I'm a teacher, that I do or don't have a lot of Creativity.  All that I know is that the world needs the different amounts of creativity that everyone brings to the world from all different areas and we certainly can't go after things in our lives based upon other people's opinions.

This is a good piece of reading for you to check out - or listen to.  It got me thinking out of my comfort zone, hope it does for you too.

Perspective - 3 Short Stories To Help

10/29/2019

0 Comments

 
Found 3 very short stories to help us see and think about having a little more Perspective in our lives.  The 3 stories are HERE.    

The first of these 3 stories is about "The Muddy Road" - 2 monks are walking and one stops to help a lady out of the mud.  So he carries her to safety and puts her down and continues on his way.  The other monk is worked up that he did that since they are not supposed to be around females, let alone touch one.  The one who helped the lady mentions that he left her back there, why is he still worried about her?  Carrying on a worry, burden, etc., does not good for our future.   That enables us to keep having that one event cause us more problems than it originally did back when it happened.  I know we need to learn from this mistake, maybe even remember some moments of it so we can learn and get better.  I also try to let it go.  I'm not always successful with that, but I know I need to.  

The second story is titled "The Two Wolves" where a grandfather is telling the story to his grandson on how we all have 2 Wolves inside of us.. the good one and the bad one.  The one that wins is the one we feed the most!  The negative or positive voices we have... that's the key.  We all battle with trying to do the right things in our life and we can be our own worst critic for sure.   But it is shown over and over again which ever "voice" we let drive us, the one we "feed" the most is the one that will control our thoughts, etc.  The key is WE have choice. 

The final of the 3 stories is "The Farmer's Fortune" - so many things happen to this farmer and his son, and every time a neighbor says to him "that's too bad that happened..." or "isn't it fortunate that that happened...".  The farmer responds the same each time... "perhaps" is all  he says.  He doesn't pile on in misery & complaining when things are not going well, nor does he get all fired up when things are great.  He stays even keeled... no emotional swings or reactions... that's a great message for all of us.  It's far more important as to what our reaction is compared to what actually happened to us.  We never know the next door to open tomorrow no matter what we went through today. 

This was a good and quick exercise to try.  Click on the file link above and see what you can get out of these stories as far as perspective goes.  Then let me know your thoughts.  :-)

Building Integrity - It's Worth The Effort!

10/24/2019

0 Comments

 
This was a powerful assignment for my students and I to work on (even though mine is a little late in getting done).   This article that I found "9 Tips To Help You Strengthen Your Integrity" - really gave some good things to digest and reflect on.

Here are a few that I connected with out of the 9 points:

#1 - Keep Your Promises:  This is one that when I first read it, I knew right away it was one for me to work on.  I work hard to keep my promises to others - I am not always successful, but I sure do try.  The one I usually let down is ME!  Wow do I have to work on this!!  I'm actually used to disappointing myself.  I set out to do things and I choose to do other things.  Then later, I'll do more damage by beating myself up about it.  That's a double whammy so to speak from one failure.  

#5 - Examine how you react in knee-jerk situations:  This again - powerful reflections here for me - I need to watch and catch earlier how I react to things as they occur.  Especially with my wife and kids.  When things first happen - good or bad, I tend to have my emotional reaction and then reflecting on it later.  I need to catch it in the moment and watch the way react... heck, I need to change my reaction to that of being a more positive one.   When it's my negative reaction added to the negative or bad event, you can see how that does not make anything better.  It usually only makes things worse.  :-(

#6 Polish your communication skills - This one is reminding us that it never stops!  We never become perfect at communicating.   Wait - What???  Even with all this great technology that so many people think does everything for us??  Yeppers!  It is being found now in so many of these "soft skills" are not soft at all. They are becoming more valuable then ever before.  So this is one of the main ones (heck, all of them really) that really pays to work on.  All. The. Time!

#8 Avoid people who lack integrity - This is a biggie!  We are who we hang out with.  Those people that we hang out with - we let them affect us, mainly our thinking!  Those people that lack integrity affect those around them with the choices / decisions they make.  Their actions affect us.  Then we have to work twice as hard to overcome their poor decisions and the poor decisions we make too.  That is not worth it at all.

The other points are important too - I could have plenty to say (or write) about them too. Check out the article for yourself, and like I said, this is all worth putting in the extra effort in improving in all of these areas.
