From the Desk of Bob

Well, here we are in the month of love. Many people are thinking of chocolates and flowers and such. I know-me too. (Giving them, that is, not getting them.) I should also mention that this month of love has inspired me in my writing and in my actions. (See article below.) I plan on celebrating all month.

Speaking of love, I would love to have you let me know if you need some coaching or encouragement on your life goals both personal and professional, your strategies, objectives, or attitudes. I am here for that very thing. Or maybe you're in need of some coaching on time management. I am a master at time. I have tons of tools on the skills of managing time more effectively. Just send an email or call me anytime. To date, I have served over 325,000 people, using my tools, resources and ideas to assist them in accomplishing their dreams and goals.

To your success! Bob

Attitudes to Live By

"Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion." –Hebbel

"The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning." –Mitch Albom

"The more intensely we feel about an idea or a goal, the more assuredly the idea, buried deep in our subconscious, will direct us along the path to its fulfillment." –Earl Nightingale

Seeds of Success: Passion for Life

By Robert A. Prentice

Today, I am writing about Red Hot Passions! Whew, are we having fun yet? Let me clarify, by mentioning, that I am not writing a "mushy" love story! But, yet I sort of am.

I am thinking of a different kind of passion then you may be thinking. (Sly Smile) Honestly, I am referring to the kind of passion that fuels your internal fire ... the type of passion that burns within you to accomplish your heart's desires. The very thing that drives you towards your quest for adventure, excitement, satisfaction and peace, which is the very thing that most refer to as "success."

Last week I was observing my oldest daughter parent one of her children and she was so loving and caring in her actions my heart was warmed by the fact that Tasha is completely committed and is so totally awesome in her role as a mom. Tasha wants to be the best parent she can possibly be for those grand kids of mine. She is what I call "passionate" about her mission, roles, responsibilities, and goals. With this passion of hers comes an enthusiasm for living that affects everything she does. And her passion is contagious. I just feel good being around her!

Here are a couple of questions I routinely ask myself.
Am I really happy?
Am I doing what I really want to do?

Without really belaboring the issue, there is power in doing what we are passionate about. Identifying, then acting on our passions is vital if we are to tap into any measure of success. Making our passions become reality in our lives is so much fun. There's nothing like the feeling of totally investing every ounce of your being into your endeavor. This is the kind of red-hot passion I am referring to today. Take action and become HOT! Pssst.

So, what are your passions? What really turns your crank? What causes you to wake up early in the morning and capitalize on the new day?

We should commit to focusing on what drives us and challenges us to be our best -to have a passion for life.

Because he wasn't all that he was cracked up to be.
