I think my greatest growth potential is: I am not afraid to change or grow and that helps me to implement new opportunities &/or system that help my team & me to be better! (I made a decision to be a lifelong learner about 4 years ago. I want to grow into someone who can be better prepared to handle more opportunity in all areas of my life physically, spiritually, relationally, emotionally, mentally & financially)

I used to live in the definition of insanity “doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result” I think it’s better to be or do something you’ve never done in order to become or arrive somewhere you’ve never been! ( of course evaluatin the success of others before you do something new is a good idea / unless you are on the cutting edge of something great)

“Be in the world what you want to see in the world” I love this quote from Gandhi.So what do I want to be is the question and what comes to mind is Authentic. Be myself. Thanks Larry Have a great day

It still a dream until I put a date on it Great post Larry thanks Have a great day

Authenticity is the only way to fly Be yourself people are attracted to that Great post Larry Thanks Have a great day

What am I thinking ? What am I feeling ? They are the questions I ask myself when I am not on the internal track I want to be on I can change how I think and it will change how I feel Thanks Larry Have a great day

No one makes me feel anything I do it all myself by editing the incoming information.I check my beliefs and decide if I want to change any that don’t work in a nurturing way Thanks Larry Have a great day

Great point, Larry,

When I was working with consultants in the 70s and 80s and business coaches in the 90s, being likable is the ‘grease’ that helps launch a lot of positive initiatives for businesses.

Being likable does cover a ‘multitude of sins’ and also tends to cover up character and competency flaws as well. We can see this demonstrated in a lot of places today–none more prominent than our country’s own leadership.

Depending upon which side of the desk we sit, we all should be striving for discernment for those we choose to work with. After all, business should be fun–most of the time anyway–right?

Great post.

When I do things that make me feel good it is adding to my overall happiness Thanks Larry Have a great day

Our children and there children’s children’s are being robbed of a good life as we now know if we don’t stand up and end this excessive government and it’s policies

I absolutely agree with you Larry!

Great summation of what’s going on

Whether a dem or rep all interesting points that make us take pause and truly think about where we are as a country.

The definition of the word conundrum is: something that is puzzling or confusing.

Here are six Conundrums of socialism in the United States of America :

1. America is capitalist and greedy – yet half of the population is subsidized.
2. Half of the population is subsidized – yet they think they are victims.
3. They think they are victims – yet their representatives run the government.
4. Their representatives run the government – yet the poor keep getting poorer.
5. The poor keep getting poorer – yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.
6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about – yet they want America to be more like those other countries.

Think about it! And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 21st Century.
Makes you wonder who is doing the math.

These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment:

1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works.

2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money. How come we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money? What’s interesting is the first group “worked for” their money, but the second didn’t. Think about it…..

3. Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but we are not stopping the payments or benefits to illegal aliens?

Am I the only one missing something?

There are people who give and people who take I am so grateful that those who choose to give have meaning and purpose in their lives and create a better world Thanks Larry Have a great day

What important message to give to our children! Wish it was that easy to get them to listen and understand.

Exactly Larry.
I teach this concept as well.
Encourage SELF as we encourage others and do it often.
Thank you.

Thanks – I needed that.
