3 Tips on Staying Focused to your Goals..


What do you think when you want to start something? You probably think of the end game and say to yourself “wow I can’t do that”. So what happens next? NOTHING!
Most people, a high percentage of people have dreams. Dreams that are so big they feel they cannot reach them because they want it like.. the next day?  Let me say something here, there is no get quick rich formula! Oops! Did I just burst your bubble! That’s right! There is no formula that will make your “THOUGHT” become a reality tomorrow when you’re thinking of being someone new. Yes people want to get big muscles so they do roids but even that takes a few weeks and comes with many health problems! Believe me I have seen it in my lifetime with working out at a gym and being a personal trainer.
Today is #TuesdayTips and I want to share with you some of the things I find to be the best way to reach your dreams! Your goals in either personal or business related! That’s right you can use what I show you in your personal life too!
The one thing I have found easy in my life is that when I learn something I see it work with many other situations across my life – business, personal, global, etc.. All the skills out there are not just for ONE situation but can help you manage many!
Tip #1 Ok. So that would be one TIP. Take what you learn for any situation in your life and see how it may help in another. Like stress for an example. We endure stress in our business/job life and of course we endure stress in our personal lives. Closing your eyes for just 2 minutes allowing your mind to rest, listening to your breathing come in and out of your body can do MAGIC! Magic I tell you! Try it the next time you feel overwhelmed. As you continue to do this activity extend the time slowly up to 10 minutes. When you reach the 10 minute mark you want to start using this time to go into Tip #2.
Tip #2 When you can reach the 10 minute mark of closing your eyes and relaxing your “mind – body – soul” this would be the time you start to “Map your Goals”. What does that mean you ask?.. well. If you do not have a goal in mind then start creating goals. Short term – Day/week/month and also long term goals – 6 months/Year/3 yrs/ 5 yrs/ 10 yrs.. Goals are a MUST in your life. When you find out how powerful goal-setting is to your journey you will understand what I am saying. So when your in your state of relaxing, thinking of your breathing at the beginning, start to visualize a goal of yours, short or long or both. Take the journey that you’re there all ready, feeling the fun, laughter, family gathering, travel, or whatever your journey is taking you. But the key is FEEL & VISUALIZE!
Tip# 3 Now to add to the previous tips this one would be make this a DAILY Habit! We are made up of habits – negative & positive. This daily activity is a POSITIVE HABIT of course and keeps you focused on your journey and who you want to become. See the key is to be the person in your VISION, FEEL the emotions, and your unconscious will map out your journey or reverse engineer the path to your present moment. I am Serious! It’s incredible & exciting to watch it happen! Only 10 minutes per day for YOU out of the approx. 17-18 hours you’re awake doing whatever you have to do.
Take these Tips and try them out in your life starting today if possible – 2 minutes – then in a week do – 5 minutes – by the 3rd week do your best to be at – 10 minutes – and see how your life in Business & Personal has changed just by doing these small actions. It will keep you on track and focused on what you feel inside of you where no one can judge your thoughts😉

Jet Lag..? 4 Ways To Beat It!


If you're an experienced traveler for Leisure or Business you may experience jet lag once in your lifetime.
I have traveled from Canada to Japan and Australia on two separate occasions. Very very long flights of 11-13hrs. 
How do you prepare yourself just for the flight alone let alone the time zone change?
Well.. I may have some tricks up my sleeve to help you with the next time you travel from your home to another time zone especially if its a 12 hour difference! I have not experienced jet lag yet in my life as a passenger! That may change now that I am a flight attendant in the future but at the moment I do not fly International.
  1. Get comfortable in your seat and know the time of where you are going. Like James Bond synchronize your watch to your destination. This way you will know what they are currently doing - breakfast, lunch, dinner, sleeping..
  2. Now since you know their time at your destination then start preparing yourself to blend into that time zone Now.. So if they are at certain times like breakfast, lunch, or dinner then you pretend you are too! This is where most people mess up! They keep their time zone routines!
  3. This one is VERY Important! If the destination you are heading to is SLEEPING! Then you must REST! Just close your eyes and do you best to sleep. Use any sleep aids you feel you need and get to it! This way you are already training your cycle to be on their cycle! This will greatly help your transition at the highest percentage!
  4. When you arrive and its 10am there and normally 10pm from your time zone you MUST stay up the entire day - eat breakfast, lunch, dinner with the locals and then go to bed at a decent hour like 8:30-9pm! This will enforce your transition to the 2nd day refreshed and ready to have fun!
I believe these 4 tricks will help you greatly make it safely rested for fun or that Business meeting planned and you will be ready to go by day #2!
Let me know how these tricks work for you! I found it easy to create this when I worked in a 12 hr rotating career position up in Canada. I just treated my 12-13 hr international flights as if I was working my night shift and slept when the destination locals slept. It was interesting to watch everyone on the plane eating dinner and lights out at 9 pm when the local time was morning in Japan for an example. I am sure more than half the plane was jet lagged for days! Not a fun thing to have when you lose a day on your way back.
Well enjoy your next ADVENTURE!! Talk to me when you get back by leaving a comment below!
