Unstoppable Spring!

Sigh!  SPRING has arrived in the Okanagan.  As I drive through this great valley on my morning pilgrimage to my kid’s school, I see signs of Spring everywhere.  Orchardists have been out pruning diligently for weeks now.  Good growers know it is coming. SPRING!  It is UNSTOPPABLE!

How could you become UNSTOPPABLE this Spring?

Focus on MOMENTUM

The amazing thing about Spring is that once it starts, – once that bud starts to burst, it becomes an unstoppable force.  The burst of growth that happens as the ground thaws and the sun warms the earth is a force of nature.  This Spring commit to embracing the force of Spring and capitalize on your own growth by using MOMENTUM.

Be your OWN COACH 

Tips to an Unstoppable you this Spring.

Tip #1 Never Wait!  Waiting never puts you in a position of power.  If you are waiting you are not in action.  Momentum requires constant action.

Tip #2 Check Facts and Stay Clear of Negative Information.  It is easier to believe negative information than work on being positive, so keep up the momentum by questioning and getting your own first hand information.  Remember, the blueprint is yours.

Tip #3 Remember: It is not Personal.   Everyone has a job to do, and the person you are dealing with might just be on a different page!  Making things personal seriously hampers momentum.  Don’t allow yourself to slow down with self doubt or get trapped in analysis.

Tip #4 Don’t Set Yourself Up.  Avoid setting goals on things you can’t control.  Instead, set goals that you have the power to act upon.

Tip #5 Take time to Rest. Rarely is a project complete in one day. Taking daily action requires work, and since we are programmed to work for reward, why not reward your hard work by taking planned time off.

Tip #6 Keep on Building. Remember that everyday you are moving closer to your objective.  Keep on keeping on, and you will see the results.
