Everyday Challenges

Yes, we all have them yet some of us know how to
handle and learn from them while others struggle
to avoid them and pay no attention to them by
looking the other way or ignoring them.

So what are they and how can you handle and learn
from them before they become stressors, the cause
of your stress?.

If you let them, everyday challenges of dealing with
change, uncertainty and multiple demands can...

...help you be a better observer.
...help you be more mindful of your circumstances.
...help you change and grow.
...offer you new opportunities.
...open you up to new possibilities.
...provide you with information about yourself.
...tell you that you need to change the way you see things.
...tell you that you need to keep learning new things to be
   more effective.

With creativity, encouragement, enthusiasm and support
you can turn everyday challenges into new beginnings
and opportunities by being in the moment.

According to the renowned time management consultant
Donald Wetmore "...being more effective...requires better
ways of prioritizing your time, communicating with others,
and absorbing information."

We look forward to supporting you on your everyday
challenges journey.

Organic Whole Foods


In this report organic whole foods is getting our attention
because nutrition is one of the stressors to look at when
dealing with your stress reactions.

What are organic whole foods and what makes them so
important for your health and well-being?

Organic whole foods are foods that are non-toxic and not
processed.

Did you know that chemical toxins as synthetic fertilizers
and insecticides in your foods upset your body's balance
and may cause serious health problems?

There are well-documented, non-toxic and inexpensive
healing properties in, and health benefits from organic
whole foods.

Not only do organic whole foods taste much better than
processed foods and you feel much better when they
are the major part in your meal preparation, choosing
organic whole foods may help prevent health issues
in your future.

A common perception is that organic whole food is too
expensive that it is out of budget reach for the average
family and for the average single consumer.

According to Colleen Huber, a naturopathic medical
student, your family could be eating organic whole
food for the same price as processed foods -- or less.

Know what you spend on groceries in an average week
for all organic whole food and test this for yourself.

We look forward to supporting you on your organic
whole foods journey.

Networking as a Marketing Tool


Networking as a marketing tool is exciting and challenging.

If you've lived anywhere for a long period of time, you know
many people, and you most likely know what they do.

Everyone has this ready-made network; unfortunately most of
us are not aware of or even know that this network exists.

Your ready-made network includes your family, friends, dentist,
doctor, lawyer, neighbors, club members, church and synagogue
group, sports buddies, kids' friends' parents and people with
whom you do business.

Identifying and using your existing ready-made personal network
is an exciting and powerful strategy for you to reach your target
niches and to increase your business.

With this active and growing network of people who benefit from
their association with you, you can count on getting help from
them when you want it.

According to Nancy Roebke, Executive Director of Profnet Inc.
knowing how these people can help you is "one of the biggest
challenges facing anyone using networking as a marketing tool."

As you continue to develop your network, begin to learn proactive
network strategies to help you meet your obligation to yourself,
to your clients, to your customers, and to your membership.

We look forward to supporting you on your networking journey.

The Acceptance Key


Last week you received the awareness key.

Acceptance is another one of the three keys to
managing stress that is needed for your survival.

Acceptance -- just like the awareness key -- is
the key...

- that empowers your life.

- for healthy relationships.

- that can help you with what you have, what
  you need and how to get help and to give help
  to others.

So, what exactly is acceptance?

Acceptance is being used here as the ability
to endure without protest, reaction or approval.

like your stress indicators/symptoms that appear
as a result of your external and internal requirements.

We look forward to supporting you on your acceptance

Your Élan Connection


Élan is a personal thing.  It is about your energy
and soul connection to your life and your work.

Your élan connection is when your energy flows,
when you are at one with the moment, and when
you are moving to a higher level of energy -- of
creating and recreating.

Your élan connection is when you find the energy
to stand up for what you believe -- at that moment
for you, as for most people with élan, there is a
conviction, a vision, a heart that goes against
prevailing forces.

Your élan connection makes your heart sing as it
did for Peter Drucker when he set new standards
of service in corporations and agencies everywhere.

Peter Drucker's elan connection, his presence and
integrity lit fires and hope wherever he went.

Focus relentlessly on what matters to you!

Be kind, be sensitive and do everything from your
heart because it is okay for you to learn, grow, and
awaken your élan connection so that your energy
flows when you are at one with the moment.

We look forward to supporting you on your élan
journey.  Let us know your thoughts by posting
your comments here.

Nutrigenomics and Other Lessons Learned


Nutrigenomics is the science of how the food you eat talks
to your genes, how your food and nutrients interact with
your genes to turn on messages of health and disease based
on understanding the unique ways in which your genes
and metabolism interact.

Other lessons learned...

- There is creative procrastination in the most valuable use
of your time by deciding what to eliminate, what to delegate
and what to farm out.

- The starting point for peak perform/ance is to establish your
priorities by arranging your values in the order of importance
to you.

And, the lesson we learned from our colleague Michael Masterson...

"If you want to accomplish something, just focus on the specific
behavior that will get you there.  Find out the exact actions that
others have taken to achieve a similar objective, and imitate
those actions, step by step.  ...it's sometimes very difficult to take
that first step until you have cleaned out the negative stuff in your
head and replaced it with "can-do" thinking."

Remember the longer you wait to begin working toward the
outcomes you want, the more difficulty you have reaching them.
