Coach's Corner

“It never ceases to surprise me at the infinite capacity of the human mind to resist the introduction of useful knowledge.”
- Thomas Raynesford Lounsbury

THERE'S A HERO INSIDE EACH OF US

Do not just talk to people. Talk with people. People are in constant evolution. The person you meet today will be different tomorrow. Surround yourself with as many extraordinary people as possible. Because we are limited by our thinking and beliefs, we need to listen to others to open our minds. We all need thinking and accountability partners. Individuals who see excellence within us, even when we do not always see it in ourselves. People who can help you tap into your own unique and unlimited reservoir of greatness. 

An obstacle of opportunity to overcome on our journey is to differentiate between what the world expects of you, and what you expect of yourself. Do not lose yourself trying to save someone else. We must never outsource our happiness. Do not give someone else the responsibility of making you happy. Find your inner peace and joy, for you.

There is a hero inside each of us. One of life's most relevant questions is how can I help you. Always aspire to provide real value and to create work that matters while focusing on being a consistently good person. Never stop being a good person because of bad people. Allow your positive energy and outlook be a contagious catalyst in inspiring change.

A friend is not something you just pick up and put down whenever you choose. A true friend is someone who will be with you when nobody else is. A person who is with you when it rains and shines. Your real friends should always be a priority. Do not waste time and energy on folks who only reach out when they need something. If the relationship is not based on growth and creating win-win experiences, you cannot stay in it because of time served. 

Each of us would be better off if we mastered the ability to place ourselves in the shoes of others. As long as we are alive, we get another moment, another chance to do and be better. Give the gifts you have to others while spending more time on what is right with people, instead of what is wrong with them. If you want to travel fast, travel alone. If you are going to travel far travel together!
