Current News Letter I Want to Share My Mentor  (1/27/2010) There are several different ways a person can be a mentor. Sometimes people think of a mentor as a “Big Brother” or a “Big Sister” who volunteers to help young kids with an unstable family life. Others may view a mentor as someone they have worked for and gained valuable business advice from. Still others may have mentors whom they have never even met but only read about and learned from. ________________________________ PAST ISSUES I Want to Share my Mentor  (1/27/2010) There are several different ways a person can be a mentor.

It is what lays the golden eggs of freedom, safety, justice and free enterprise. Some goose! Some eggs! Now we could argue that the goose eats too much, and that is probably true, but don’t we all eat too much?” ________________________________ Not Everything Important Comes with Urgency  (1/13/2010) There is always room for improvement in each of the four pillars, no matter how good your expertise may be in a particular pillar. The problem in finding and implementing improvement starts when you allow other things to get in your way of accomplishing the goals you set. ________________________________ Turn Your Life Values into Daily Tasks  (1/6/2010) Did you make a New Year’s Resolution for 2010? If you did, chances are by now you have already given up on it, or you will give it up by the end of this month. Most people start out the New Year with good intentions to accomplish their dreams, but they lack the ability to follow through with their resolutions. The reason is they don’t understand the little tricks behind setting goals. ________________________________ New Year's Resolutions - Fact or Fiction?  (12/30/2009) I am currently in “hibernation mode.” Every year I take off the week between Christmas and New Years Eve and do as little business as possible (lets face it, very little business gets done this week anyway). I use this time to analyze how I spent the last year and to decide how I can start planning for the next one. My family and I also use this hibernation time to just spend time with each other. It is a wonderful week. I take out my journals and review how I did this year. What did I do right and what did I do wrong? How could I have done better? In addition, I pull out my goals list for 2009 and review it. How did I do this year? Which goals did I accomplish, and where did I come up short? _______________________________ Live in the Right Moments  (12/22/2009) My daughter is living proof that setting goals and working towards them is the best and only way to accomplish your dreams. Sometimes you may have to give up on the “at the moment” things in order to accomplish the bigger picture. While many kids her age have spent the last four years living “Friday-night-to-Friday-night,” my daughter has been living “Big-Dream-to-Big-Dream.” She never gave in to the many peer-pressures that abound our teens today. She knew one night of fun was not worth compromising a lifetime of success. _______________________________ 4 Pillars  (12/17/2009) My daughter is living proof that setting goals and working towards them is the best and only way to accomplish your dreams. Sometimes you may have to give up on the “at the moment” things in order to accomplish the bigger picture. While many kids her age have spent the last four years living “Friday-night-to-Friday-night,” my daughter has been living “Big-Dream-to-Big-Dream.” She never gave in to the many peer-pressures that abound our teens today. She knew one night of fun was not worth compromising a lifetime of success. ________________________________ The Real Health Care Issue...  (12/9/2009) If there is one thing Americans are good at, it is solving a crisis. Well this is a huge crisis, and we seem to be ignoring it. We are debating health care reform at the highest levels, but we may be missing the most important part of all…the necessity to teach our nation about having a health lifestyle. Steven Covey describes this as cutting at the branches of the problem while ignoring the roots ________________________________ Ask the Right Questions...  (12/2/2009) She needed to ask better questions because it is the quality of the questions you ask yourself that creates the quality of your life. Your brain is a complex computer programmed to answer the questions you ask it. If you ask your brain a question often enough, with real passion and emotion, it will come up with answers to the question. ________________________________ Thanksgiving is Upon Us...  (11/25/2009) The more we express our gratitude, the more blessings we seem to have. Inner peace comes not from getting what you want but from wanting what you have. Remember to live with an attitude of gratitude. ________________________________ Do you need a mentor?  (11/20/2009) I have learned the best and fastest way to learn something new is to find a mentor and model and learn directly from them. Sure, you can learn things on your own, but without a mentor, learning will take you longer, you will make more mistakes, and it will not be nearly as enjoyable. _______________________________ Birthday Evaluation  (11/10/2009) Birthdays are a great time for reflection. I celebrated my birthday on Monday, and I used part of the day to reflect on where my life is at and where I want it to go. ________________________________ It's Who You Know  (11/3/2009) I have learned one thing in life that I hope will also help you. You have to make the time and take the opportunity to be where good positive people hang out and then get to know them. You are the average of the five people you hang out with the most. You are the average of their attitude, their work ethic, their income and their outlook on life. I would be honored to be the average of the people I just mentioned. _____________________________ How the Number 10 Can Change Your Life  (10/6/2009) For years I have recommended everyone read at least 10 pages a day in something inspiring, motivating, or educational. Reading 10 pages a day will probably not change your life tomorrow or the next day. In fact you may not notice anything for quite some time. But just think, a mere 10 pages a day equals 3,650 pages, or approximately 10-12 good books, a year. _____________________________ Identify Your Most Important Assets  (9/21/2009) There were many important things in our Yukon, but most of them were things. A few of them, like my journals and family photos, were irreplaceable. But I still have my memories, and I still have my family. I believe the most important things in our life are the people we surround ourselves with and how we treat all people. _____________________________ My Time on the Mountain  (9/4/2009) I also encourage you to take time each day to find something that inspires you to do something new or to bring out a hidden talent you have not used in awhile. We often let ourselves get bogged down in the day-to-day grind of work, taking care of the family and participating in all the other activities we are involved in. Sometimes we forget the things that truly make us feel special. _____________________________ Identifying the Toxins in Your Life  (8/28/2009) It seems that everywhere we turn we are told about the toxins in our environment that can cause us harm and disease. Yet I believe we may be ignoring the number one toxin of all. This is the toxin that will put an end to your productivity. It will make you miserable and it will take you down if you let it. _____________________________ Find the Hidden Sugar & Lose the Weight  (8/18/2009) As I teach people the principles of maintaining a healthy weight, I am constantly amazed at how often I hear, “I am already doing all that stuff. There is something about me that is different. Isn’t there some drug you can give me to take the weight off?” _____________________________ Journaling to Inner Peace  (8/11/2009) Journals are a great way to review your life, be it the year you just had or the ten years before that. Remember a life worth living is a life worth recording. Journaling is a wonderful way for you to look back on your life, and perhaps more importantly, it may be the greatest thing you can leave your posterity. _____________________________ 8 Tips to Help You Age Well  (8/4/2009) love birthdays. People call you and you realize how blessed you are. At the same time, you start to think about your own mortality and your health. I don’t get nearly as concerned about how long I am going to live as I do about my quality of life until I die. As I talk to patients, I get the sense that I am not alone in this. It seems most of us just want to be as healthy as possible while we are alive. _____________________________ Why You Need A Health Plan  (7/29/2009) My advice to those people and to anyone reading this article who doesn’t have a real health plan in place is this: Develop a workable health plan you can implement as soon as possible and use over the next six months. In six months, you can evaluate your progress and then make adjustments to continue improving your health and fitness. _____________________________ Join our Mailing List!
