“No matter what you’ve done for yourself or for humanity, if you can’t look back on having given love and attention to your own family, what have you really accomplished?”  –Lee Iacocca

Isn’t it funny how when you focus on something, you see more of the exact thing you’re focusing on?

Like when you buy a new car, all of a sudden, you see your car design all over the road!

Well this just happened when I shared a random thought on Facebook about a minute ago.

Here’s the thought I shared.

The Secret to LASTING Success:

“Do something every day that causes you “some” discomfort. Whether it’s learning something new, doing something new, or tackling something you’ve been putting off.

I guarantee you, if you do this consistently for an entire year, you’ll be that much better off in your business and compared to your competitors who are avoiding the things you are doing.”

Immediately after I posted that thought, I got into ACTION.

I figured I might as well follow my own advice, and do something NEW starting today. I’ve been wanting to watch more TED TV videos — to learn from and be inspired from. So I decided to pull up TED.com and watch a TED video during dinner (instead of some random sitcom from NetFlix).

Guess what I come across? Matt Cutts saying the exact same thing as my random thought posted on Facebook just 5 minutes earlier!

Cool how that works, eh? Now it’s YOUR turn! What’s something you’ve been wanting to do, see, experience, tackle, and just keep putting it off? For whatever reason, we WANT more than we actually PURSUE. So let’s FLIP that right now, shall we? Let’s do it together. And celebrate our success in 30 days.

If you’d like to hold yourself accountable, and join a Tribe of other successful people committing to do something new for the next 30 days, friend me up on Facebook on my new Fan Page:
Coach Deb and post YOUR New Thing that you’re committed to doing over the next 30-days.
Imagine what will happen when you do this with a group of like-minded people.

The Victor
By C.W. Longenecker

If you think you are beaten, you are.
If you think you dare not, you don’t
If you like to win but think you can’t,
It’s almost a cinch you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’re lost.
For out in the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will
It’s all in the state of mind.

If you think you are outclassed, you are.
You’ve got to think high to rise.
You’ve got to be sure of yourself before
You can ever win the prize.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the stronger or faster man.
But sooner or later, the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.

Exert your talents, and distinguish yourself, and don’t think of retiring from the world, until the world will be sorry that you retire. –Samuel Johnson

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

“Enthusiasm is excitement with inspiration, motivation, and a pinch of creativity.” –Bo Bennett

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. –Martin Luther King Jr.
