Maslow’s Hierarchy Of Needs
15 Mar
If you know this chart what are your thoughts?
If you don’t, what are your thoughts?
In life there is definitely a natural progression. We all have wants and needs.
I’m curious who disputes this hierarchy.

Stars Can’t Shine Without Darkness
31 DecStars Can’t Shine Without Darkness
Simple and to the point. Not much for the last post of the year because I won’t belabor it. Stars can’t shine without darkness. Opposites make things work. My wife is my opposite in myriad ways. She’s math I’m english. She’s quiet I’m loud. But its a balance. But I wouldn’t have been blessed with her if I hadn’t gone through darkness.
Bad times make great people.
I was a jerk. And I was running a muck. And my train went off the track in early 2006. And I had to confront the darkness that I was in and the darkness I was in as I sat there in pain and anger. After I confronted the immediate situation I confronted my demons. And over six months transformed my mind and body. I put together my first book, shared my poetry in front of hundreds of people and moved forward in my life.
I was happy. I was honest with myself. Then I got my first car, a better position at work, and I went back to school. After that I made a commitment to my wife and we were married. All in about 9 months. My dark moved me forward. It shined me up- better said it polished me like a stone.
My dad was a jeweler and in his shop I remember the machine with the cream and little objects. What did it do? Made the diamonds shine. And I mean SHINE. I remember he would cut diamonds and etch gold to get it just right. He had to cut to shape to mold to make these rough items value show in such a way that they were unquestionable items of value, beauty, and
desirable by all means.
I remember when I started going to the gym. I was out of shape, husky and insecure with my prowess in the gym. Over time I got better. I took advice, made new friends and became the powerhouse I always wanted to be. Fast forward five years and I was back it after a wrist injury(remember the aforementioned darkness?). This time I got bigger and better. It was great. The lesson here folks is that you have to have a need, a want, and or a dark point from where you grow to be better than you are. From my darkness I’ve risen to have a level of comfort, peace of mind and self forgiveness I not only benefited from, but needed.
You gotta have bad times to know what good times are and where you are going.
You must help stars shine
You owe it the world and yourself to be the best you can. And from there to aid others in being their best. We are all worthy of greatness and called to it. When you don’t believe this and then act on it we all lose. At night we see all the stars not one. In unison they provide astounding views and in chorus they paint the night sky visually stunning. Ever been to Vermont? When you see the night spy without anything hindering it- it is truly majestic. And this occurs when we all work together.
Do you have a business?
Are you trying to recruit?
Build a team?
Worry about helping the people first. When you care for people, when you solve problems- you reap rewards. You change lives. Be helpful, Be successful.
HAPPY NEW YEARS FOLKS.

Got Goals? Porsche Makes Mine
29 Dec
Got Goals? Porsche Makes Mine
I’m going to be brief.
Goals make Dreams come true. Period.
When I was young I wanted to be rich. I wanted to have 10 million in the bank. But I had no goal just a selfish wish with no plan or goal. I wanted more for no reason. Fast.
Fast Forward a decade or so and my dream is now bigger, and goal focused. I want my own perpetually successful business. Heck make it three. After some failed attempts the path I’m on now is working.
My focused goals made it work for me.
I set aside time daily for my business and my mental growth. Those are the goals that
Make it work now. The Porsche isn’t gone. I’m still as in love with as I was the day the vp from my moms job gave us a ride in his 911. That backseat was small but I was amazed! And it was his commuter car!
Life can be grand when we apply ourselves in a dedicated fashion.
Why shouldn’t you expect MORE?
Heck why don’t you demand it.
Go out and get what you want. End the year by ushering in a new one filled with prosperity. Let your goals guard your mindset and be ambassadors for you as you march forward and seize 2013.
Lastly, Know that to gain _______ will require a sacrifice somewhere else.
Back to the Porsche. To have one my driving costs, aka insurance, maintenance, fuel will all rise dramatically. So I pay to play. Also to add that financial burden or blessing requires I create extra income not deplete my existing resources.
Use your mind to figure out your course of action. There is always a way. Go out and get that Porsche, lambo, brownstone, gated community home with the pool- you live your dream. Just let your goals get you there. And old fashoined hardwork.

Winning Is A Habit, So Is Losing
23 DecWinning Is A Habit, So Is Losing.
It’s that simple. Not easy, but simple.
Everything in life requires work. Success is not a gift it is a habit.
The secret to your success is found in your daily habits.
What you do daily is exactly what you will be. Michael Jordan wasn’t a phenom from birth. He practiced, then practiced some more, and then worked at it more after the game. Derek Jeter came out of the Yankees farm system to rise to the title of captain. His love of the game and dedication ot constant improvement made him a leader amongst men. Clearly there is a correlation between actions and success.
What You Do You Become.
In life you are your actions. People who eat too much are obese. People who skip school don’t graduate. The guy who boozed it up, he still boozes. Enough of failure- Wayne Gretzky was relentless he became Hockey’s greatest by sheer action. He played the game. He took advice. He did it all. Ted Williams has one of the top batting averages in baseball. Why? He worked at it. He questioned pitchers to see what they did and how they saw the game. He got into the mind of his opponent. He read up. He practiced. He worked his butt off. Are you doing the same?
Who you Associate With You ARE.
I’m sorry for the harsh words to come- but if you roll with losers you are a loser quite literally. Your best friend smokes weed in his pops basement and talks about what he will do one day, rather than doing something- he’s losing. Your roommate works at Arby’s and thinks he will run the franchise- but he is late most shifts and the customers constantly complain about his lack of effort, yup he is the winner-NOT!
We can’t be more than what we aim to be. Ever see the Olympics? The best have to be vetted to be with the best. And from there the hard work only increases. Do you think that would work if they let slackers in?
Is your country inclined to win multiple Gold medals if just anyone can get on the team? Sorry it doesn’t work that way. Excellence breeds excellence. And excellence feeds off excellence. Indeed if you are even competing against losers I’d say you have lost already.
Back to Ted Williams. He did a variation on this. Ted let the reports who chased him fuel him. He fed their hatred and this became a tool to make him better. Even in using his adversaries he sought those who could challenge him. He didn’t focus on the nobodies. He didn’t deal with the guys who weren’t there every game- why? They weren’t serious. The writer who focuses on a topic is at every game, every event.
Life isn’t a past time and your passion shouldn’t be either.
You have to decide Simply whether you will Be a Winner or a Loser.
