Trans-D Tropin is known as the best anti-aging product today. It is a natural anti-aging lotion that increases your body’s own growth hormone (HGH), a true alternative to natural hormone replacement therapy and hormone treatment that has been around for some time. The main reason for this is that many of us like to retain or restore our youthful charm and strength. Growth hormone supplements and hormone supplements are often associated with painful injections and expensive doctor visits.

But did you know that science has found a better alternative? It’s called Human Growth Hormone or HGH, which is an easy, cheap, and most importantly, a safe option. Before we get into more detail about the anti-aging supplement, let’s find out a little about human growth hormone. HGH is a vital component for the human body, as it helps in the growth and functioning of all organs.

So as you get older, HGH production slows down, which triggers the aging process. Do you all know what happens when you start to get old? He tends to lose his strength, has less memory power, can’t focus on things, etc. There are so many health problems that you have to face. Fortunately, due to the research and studies on human growth hormones, I present to you trans-D Tropin or Trans-D which is an anti-aging cream.

That’s right, unlike an injection or natural hormone replacement therapy that can cost you a small fortune. This is a simple cream that you will need to apply to your forearms several times a day. It’s as simple as that, no painful injections from the doctor, no more expensive bills, and most importantly, Trans-D Tropin is safe to use. Your safety is the number one concern for product manufacturers and this anti-aging lotion has been backed by research for over 10 years.

Imagine having been going to the doctor regularly for those painful injections, which may or may not work for you. Not to mention the side effects of the growth hormone supplements that your doctor inserts into your body. Unlike those, this age reversal product works very simply once you rub it on your body, the anti aging cream increases your body’s human growth hormones.

Trans-D Tropin is known to significantly increase HGH levels. Its ingredients are a pure blend of amino acids and fatty acids. The agent increases your own natural growth hormone. It stimulates the pituitary gland in the head to release these vital hormones needed to reverse age. I can assure you that when you use Trans-D Tropin consistently, you can see results quickly.

Once your body increases its own human growth hormone, you will see the benefits of Trans-D Tropin such as decreased body fat, more energy levels, improved focus and your body’s ability to recover after workouts and healing injuries becomes faster. In short, your body feels younger and healthier. What more can you ask? Trans-D Tropin is a safe and convenient way to consider when you want to preserve or restore your youth and strength.

Among many other benefits received through the application of Trans-D Tropin lotion, users experienced:

• Deeper, more restful sleep with fewer hours of sleep
• Improved physical performance with faster recovery after workouts
• Renewed interest in sex.
• Better and more balanced mood
• Smoother, younger-looking skin

The question of “who might benefit from the use of Trans-D Tropin?” is easily answered. It’s you and just about everyone else who will benefit from the revolutionary life enhancement offered by this best anti-aging product of our time. However, bodybuilders, powerlifters, and athletes will realize the positive changes that Trans-D will bring to their lives, as they are used to paying close attention to HGH levels and its effects on their performance and well-being. This claim is evidenced by countless testimonials from top-level athletes, coaches, and physicians.

Have you ever felt like the people you’re marketing to don’t “get” or don’t understand you?

Or maybe you know you’re not communicating the “right” message to your target audience, but aren’t sure how to change your message or what it should be.

The problem in the two previous cases could be that you are not harnessing and using the power of the old archetypes in your personal branding strategy.

To help explain the concept of ancient archetypes…

Have you ever noticed that certain brands, advertisements, movies, or famous personalities seem to instantly connect with you? Without your realizing it, these marks are communicating a story and meaning to your soul with which it is already deeply familiar.

Research in the field of marketing indicates that the most powerful brands consistently embody the personality of ancient archetypes. The ancient archetype that you embody is the first thing to do before you start developing a personal brand identity.

So what is an ancient archetype?

Archetypes are believed to be universal and mythical characters that live in the collective unconscious of people all over the world. By symbolizing our core human desires, archetypes can evoke strong, deep emotions that everyone can connect with and understand.

Examples of powerful brands that arouse our emotions are Coca-Cola, Nike, Marlboro; movies like Star Wars and ET The Extra Terrestrial; and personalities like Jackie O., John Wayne and Lady Di. These “brands” have captured and held the public imagination. Because? Because they represent something moving and deeply familiar to us.

The twelve ancient archetypes are:

1.Creator

2. Caregiver

3. Rule

4. jester

5. Normal boy/girl

6. lover

7. Hero

8. Outlaw

9. Magician

10. innocent

11. Explore

12. wise

Each of these archetypes possess powerful identities that signal the fulfillment of basic human desires and emotions, and release emotions and longings deep within us. Scientific research points out that the missing link in successful marketing and branding is a lack of understanding of archetypes and the power they possess.

During the recent development of my own personal branding strategy, I focused on researching and studying the twelve ancient archetypes to determine which one resonated with me the most. After my study, I determined that the ancient archetype that best describes me is the Ruler. Ruler’s best-known brands are Saab, Ralph Lauren, Fortune and Microsoft.

The Ruler archetype is known as the leader and desires control; he also seeks to create prosperity and success, and bring order out of chaos. The rule identity is suitable for a brand if it is:

– A high status product

– A product to help people organize themselves better

– A product in the moderate to high price range

Knowing this type of information helps to create a personal brand strategy that is consistent with the attributes and values ​​of the brand, as well as to identify the words to use to market the brand.

By using the ancient power of archetypes when branding your business, you’ll immediately make your marketing easier and feel more confident that you’re authentically communicating who you are. This message of individuality and expression is so powerful that your ideal client will intuitively understand and be drawn to you.

A brand strategy, using archetypes, allows your audience to dive deep into the heart and soul of who you really are.

Whether you are developing your personal branding strategy for the first time or switching brands, using old archetypes will separate the ordinary brands from you: the extraordinary brand. Use the power of the ancient archetype to develop a powerful personal branding strategy to tell your brand’s story.

Quick… what song won an Academy Award for song of the year in 1959?

If you know that trivia, congratulations! It was the song, High Hopes in the movie Hole in the Head (not the most famous movie, I admit). The song became more popular after Frank Sinatra recorded it in 1961.

In the wake of today’s turbulence, the lyrics seem banal:

The next time they find you, with your chin on the ground,

There’s a lot to learn, so look around.

Just what makes that little old ant

Do you think it will move that rubber tree plant?

Anyone knows that an ant can’t move a rubber plant,

But he has high hopes, he has high hopes…

And an ant probably can’t move a rubber plant on its own, but if you stay hopeful enough, your chance of success increases, because with a hopeful attitude, inspiration has a place to strike. And with hope, resilience reigns. Without it, despair can paralyze and slow effective solutions to a halt.

High hopes may seem like a myth when we look around us today at all the suffering, the defragmentation, the unhappiness and the fear, the terror and the paranoia. Yet brain research continues to accumulate data that hopeful people are more effective problem solvers. In addition, it is very clear that what we pay attention to grows. And conversely, what we do not pay attention to shrinks. If we focus on our hope, our hope grows. If we’re awash in despair… well, that, of course, takes away our hope.

Are we seeing our son’s strengths or are we overwhelmed by his lack of motivation? If we don’t pay attention to his strengths, they will surely not grow and the motivation “problem” will surely increase. Are we noticing our daughter’s thoughtfulness or do we always comment on her bad temper? That is the way to grow a bad mood. The human brain is not a capricious device that acts at random. No, it acts according to a finely tuned set of principles. And one of those fundamental principles is that the focus of our attention, to a large extent, creates the reality that we experience. This is not New Age gibberish, although the New Ages have capitalized on this fascinating aspect of our brain’s operating system. There has been a lot of academic research on the subject. In fact, Appreciative Inquiry, one of the cornerstones of the PCI coaching model, is a process methodology that stems from this research. Appreciative Inquiry itself has been researched to work powerfully because it applies strategies taking into account the propensities of the human brain.

The fact is that hope will increase, if we pay attention to hopeful events. Soon enough, there are more hopeful things to talk about and our talk is filled with more hope. With more hope in front of us, we detect it in others and in our world more often and more quickly. Before we know it, the negatives are shrinking from lack of attention and the positives have increased, almost like magic! Of course, then we have more hope… the upward spiral continues… more good things happen.

Our world greatly challenges us to shift our attention to what holds hope, to what brings and enhances life. And I think it profoundly affects our upbringing. How can we stay focused on hope, on the positive, and on what is working in our daily lives with our children?

Here are five considerations for hopeful parenting in difficult times.

In his research, CR Synder (The Psychology of Hope, The Free Press, 1994) found these important indicators:

1. Hopeful parents know how to get what they want. They are determined and enjoy being enterprising and flexible, especially in difficult times. Determination can be found in having a clear vision of what we want for our children and our families. Determination means having the mental energy and physical stamina to stay with a challenge long enough to sweat out an effective solution. If we give up, we can be sure to be defeated. Your self-care goes a long way in helping you stay determined when the going gets tough. Pay attention to the signs when you feel like giving up. Instead, think about what you can give yourself and your children that will focus on your inner strengths and improve your perseverance.

2. Hopeful parents listen well. Listening and paying close attention to our children’s strengths increases our flexibility to change course if our parenting strategy isn’t getting the results we’re looking for. We can often learn from our children what is needed once we follow our instincts and answer this question from our integrity: What will bring more life to this situation? As we look at our children from this perspective, we may suddenly realize many things we can do to give them a sense of accomplishment, appreciate their present talents, and look to the future with hope.

3. Children view hopeful parents as successful. It seems that hopeful parents demonstrate their autonomy by feeling successful. This definition of success is not the definition that seems to matter to our world: big house, big car, lots of money, etc. Rather, success is measured as “Having high self-esteem and positive self-images.” This affects children on many levels: positive parents with high self-esteem grow hopeful, happy, self-confident children with high self-esteem!

4. Hopeful parents comfort each other well. When things get scary or really tough, hopeful parents comfort kids and act supportively during high-stress situations. Being there emotionally is a characteristic of parents who are more hopeful. You do not allow negative energies to affect your ability to be present and available to your children. They are able to keep negativity at bay so that children do not translate it as: “There is no time for me.” Anxiety-laden parents cannot be responsive to children’s emotional needs. Hopeful parents instill trust and openness in the parent-child communication process, keeping those doors open, even during the teen years!

5. Hopeful parents support children’s autonomy and competence. This does not mean that everything goes. What it does mean is that by focusing on what the child does well every day, the parent builds a strong sense of self in the child over time. With that comes the conviction in the child of his talents and abilities. In the words of one of the children in Synder’s research: “The most important thing I remember about my parents is that they taught me to do things for myself. But I always knew that they would be there for me if I got into trouble. ..If I messed up something, they would talk to me and not me.”

The bottom line of high hopes parenting, it seems, is that it can help us stay our best, even in difficult times, and bring out the best in our children.

Then everything is possible… for us, our children… even our world.

I just read the second edition of “Every Landlord’s Guide to Finding Good Tenants” by Janet Portman, author of “Every Landlord’s Guide to Legal.” This book is a great resource for the do-it-yourself new landlord.

The book contains chapters on the following topics:

Two: Comply with anti-discrimination laws

Three: How to deal with current tenants: before looking for new ones

Four: How to advertise effectively

Twelve: Personal, Owner, and Employer Reference Checks

Thirteen: verify the criminal records of the applicants

Fourteen: How to choose and work with a tenant screening agency

Fifteen: Choosing Your New Tenant

Sixteen: How to refuse: what to say, what to write

Again, this book is good for homeowners who choose to do most of the work themselves and owe some rent. It is also very good for the novice or beginner owner. If you are just starting out, this book and “All Landlords’ Legal Guide” can be very helpful.

Some of the information may seem basic to some, or just plain common sense. Well, when you’re just starting a business, and being an owner is a business, there’s a lot to take care of, and it’s nice to have even the simple things outlined in a text so you don’t overlook them. This is especially true for those who are trying to be homeowners on the side.

The indexed book has 465 pages and is easy to read. Nolo really does a good job of providing legal information in a format that is easy for everyone to understand. Portman is the author of several Nolo books, and this is the second of hers that I have read and I like the information she provides. There are extensive sidebars, sample documents, highlights, and charts. It is well designed and easy to read. Also included is a CD-ROM with the book that contains forms and checklists, as well as audio files that have sample dialogues for conducting interviews and more.

This book contains a lot of useful information. If you’re in business, you need to have the information to succeed. This book would go well on any owner’s shelf. It would be part of a collection of books and resources to help with owning a business and how to own it. If you are a landlord, especially if you are a beginning landlord, I suggest you get this book and use Portman’s tips on how to find great tenants.

Unfortunately guys, the representation of lesbians in the world of porn and also, for the most part, our own view of lesbians is totally different from the real world. However, there is so much we can learn from lesbians to improve our own performance!

So, believe it or not, the innocent pillow fights or hair braiding that naturally lead to a rough girl-on-girl 69 followed by hard leash work just doesn’t happen that much in the real world, almost never really. ! If that’s your idea of ​​lesbian sex, I’m sorry to say, but you’re a long way off! The best thing though is that by learning about the true lesbian experience and then adapting it to your own lovemaking, your own sexual performance and ultimately your and your partner’s sexual satisfaction will explode to heights never before achieved!

Most men would be absolutely devastated to learn that most women think us men are pretty boring in the sack! Most lesbians, especially in relationships, report a significantly higher level of sexual satisfaction than heterosexual women. This is largely because women have very different needs in bed and during sex than men, which is why lesbians are so fulfilled and fulfilled. They know what they want and how to do it!

Men can sometimes treat sex as a job or a means to an end and it can seem like a fairly planned event. For example, wetting her and getting her ready, getting inside her, pushing furiously until you get the rocks off, then rolling over and falling asleep.

Women want, and lesbians bring, a completely different experience to the bedroom. Kissing, touching, sucking, caressing and massaging are things that women love. They drive them wild and on edge. Have you been spending time in these areas or have you been ignoring them?

Because men sometimes have a sequence of events in mind that always leads to the ultimate goal of the man ejaculating, the magic ingredient of successful sex and love is missing, forgotten, or simply ignored. And that ingredient is to maximize the pleasure of both parties, or more clearly, their enjoyment and pleasure of it! So while men just want to climax, the experience is much different for women.

When two lesbians have sex or make love, they are not selfishly thinking about how it will end for them and they are also not thinking about a common goal of a thunderous orgasm and that’s it! For women, as we should all know by now, an orgasm is not the end of the act. Plus, every look, touch, and sensation between orgasms is part of the overall experience. They savor the softness of their skin, the warmth of their partner’s body, the smell of their breath and body, and most importantly, how their partner reacts and responds to every touch and caress. It is primarily about two people coming together for mutual pleasure and shared intimacy.

Great I hear you say! So lesbians have it all; an inside knowledge and understanding of exactly what a woman wants and how to give it to her. Well yes, that’s true, but the great news for you and indeed all men is that this works for us with our heterosexual partners as well. You don’t need to have a vagina to make sensual and emotional love with your partner! Women want intimacy, women want foreplay, and most of all, women want to be indulged and involved in the whole process of lovemaking and sex, and not just a mere tool to help you get unstuck! Don’t worry guys, it’s not all roses and massages, your girl will no doubt have times when all she wants is a good quickie, rough and done! All I’m trying to get across to you here is that for the most part, if you want to receive great sex on a regular basis, then you need to play your part in delivering great sex!

I have discovered that what I work the most is pleasing women first and without worrying about my own needs; Everything is paid back to me with interest! After men orgasm, all we want to do is go to sleep! Give your woman orgasms and she will usually continue, often even in a heightened state of arousal and enjoyment. Once you take your partner to this level, you will find that she is more than happy to give you almost anything you want!

The key message here is to remember that women absolutely relish the pleasure they bring you. Although there are some out there, most women don’t actually like fucking us men as something they specifically enjoy. They do it and then they like it for the pleasure it gives them as a result of pleasing you!

Making love in such a selfless way ignites and satisfies all of our senses and is pretty much the main reason why lesbians do it better than us! Don’t miss out on the pleasure that you too can give and earn. Learn what you can about lesbians and then go back and put it to use at home. I guarantee that your partner will absolutely appreciate it!

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and other functional digestive diseases contribute significantly to work absenteeism. IBS in particular is a widespread disease with estimates putting the number affected at between 25 and 55 million people in the United States alone. Although I don’t suffer from a digestive illness myself, I have become familiar with IBS through the experiences of a friend who was facing termination from work due to chronic lateness. He came to me for legal advice on how to handle the situation. This led me to investigate what legal protections may be available to someone who is having trouble attending work due to symptoms of IBS and other digestive conditions. I previously wrote about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) with a special focus on digestive diseases.

The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) allows employees with a serious medical condition to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid, JOB-PROTECTED leave in a 12-month period. FMLA has several advantages for someone suffering from IBS, Crohn’s disease, or other digestive ailments. First, although the leave is unpaid, the employee’s position is protected during the leave. Second, the leave does not have to be taken all at once, but can be taken intermittently, and even hour by hour. For my friend, who had particular difficulty getting to work on time due to the IBS showing up more frequently in the morning, being able to take an hour here or there to cover delays would obviously be a useful protection. Third, the all-too-important health insurance benefits continue during the leave period.

In order for an employee suffering from IBS to qualify for FMLA leave, there are several fact-specific criteria that must be met. First, the person’s employer must be covered by the FMLA. All public entities, including federal, state, county, and local agencies (including schools), are covered. With respect to private (eg, non-governmental) businesses, an employer is covered as long as it has employed 50 or more employees in 20 or more work weeks within any of the last 2 calendar years.

For the employee to be covered by FMLA, they must have worked at least 1,250 hours in the last 12 months for their employer. The employee must also work at a location where 50 or more employees of that employer work within a 75-mile radius.

Finally, to qualify for Family Medical Leave, the employee’s IBS or other digestive illness must meet the definition of “serious medical condition” as defined in the FMLA. This means a condition that prevents the employee from working and that has resulted in a confinement to a hospital or other health care facility, or is the subject of ongoing treatment by a medical professional. FMLA regulations also specifically recognize chronic health conditions that may qualify for leave. These conditions occur over a period of time and “may cause episodic rather than continuous periods of disability.” This would certainly seem to describe the situation faced by most IBS sufferers.

The reader should understand that the Family Medical Leave Act is a complex statute that is backed by voluminous and complex regulations. There will be rules, exceptions to those rules, and then exceptions to exceptions. Entitlement to the license is a specific determination made on a case-by-case basis and there is the possibility of confusion and/or conflict. If you believe your employer is treating you unfairly, or if you have questions or concerns, I recommend that you speak with an employment attorney to discuss your specific set of circumstances.

If you are looking for a defense attorney in Los Angeles, particularly a criminal defense attorney, it can be overwhelming with the amount of advertising online. Simply searching on your favorite search engine will return you to somewhere in the region of half a million links in the Los Angeles County area. However, the best place to look for an accredited organization is the Los Angeles County Bar Association’s (LRIS) lawyer referral service.

The Los Angeles Bar Association is a member of the American Bar Association and can be considered a highly reliable source for a reference. You can visit them online at smartlaw.org, where you will find many resources available for you to use.

When you go to the home page, you will see a form where you can specify the type of attorney you are looking for, such as a Los Angeles criminal defense attorney or malpractice attorney. You can then select the specific area of ​​Los Angeles that you want your attorney to be located in, which is helpful so you don’t have to travel far for a last-minute meeting.

This will then lead to a more detailed form, where you will be asked to fill in personal details such as; your name, address and contact details. Once you have confirmed these, you will be referred to a suitable attorney in your area. You will be given all the necessary contact details, while also giving you directions from his address to the Los Angeles Attorney’s office.

LRIS will notify the Los Angeles defense attorney you are referred to so that they can expect you to contact them. If after consulting with the attorney, you are not comfortable, you can simply contact LRIS who will provide further referrals until you find one that is right for you and your needs.

What is a plea agreement? And what happens if I accept it?

This article looks at what a plea deal is and what happens if you accept it. A plea agreement is an agreement between the defendant and the prosecutor. Generally, a plea agreement is a contract whereby the defendant will agree to do something (usually plead guilty) and, in return, the prosecutor will offer some concession in the form of a lighter sentence or award (ask the court) in a way that gives some benefit to the defendant. The main point in the plea agreement is that the defendant will give up his constitutional right to a trial and, in exchange, will receive some benefit from the government.

As great as it sounds, never listen to a lawyer who says they never negotiate or never settle with the prosecutor. The lawyer would be doing you a complete disservice, especially if he guarantees that he can win the case or if he fails to negotiate with the prosecutor. In fact, the United States Supreme Court recently held that a defense attorney has a duty of jurisdiction during plea negotiations. It makes perfect sense that an attorney should have a duty to investigate, consult, and prepare the case during plea negotiations, since approximately 90 percent of people charged in the criminal justice system plead guilty or accept some form of plea bargain. deviation.

If you accept the plea agreement, you are giving up some of your most important constitutional rights; and therefore should not be taken lightly.

If you are charged with a felony or a serious misdemeanor (a misdemeanor that carries more than 180 days), you will have the right to a jury trial. He would be giving up the right for the government to present his case to 12 citizens of the community to decide if he is guilty of the crimes with which he is charged. If you are charged with a crime that is less than 180 days old (less than 6 months), you will have a bench trial where a sitting judge will decide whether you are guilty.

You would be given the right to have your attorney call a witness on your behalf and question the government witness. It is your absolute right to confront your accuser in open court. He would also be giving up other constitutional rights, such as the right to file constitutional motions to challenge whether his rights were violated during the police proceedings in the case. After pleading guilty, he could not go back and make these claims, as he would give them up by pleading guilty.

By pleading guilty, you are accepting the government’s case and agreeing that they can prove you committed the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.

Pleading guilty before a judge (usually the trial judge) also means that you are giving up your right to have your case heard before a higher court of appeals. If he went to trial and lost, a higher appellate court could verify that the trial was fair and proper, and that the trial judge did not make serious mistakes. However, you still have the right to appeal the case if the trial judge gives you an incorrect sentence (very rare).

Finally, if you are not a citizen of the United States, a guilty plea can result in deportation or admission from the United States or denial of naturalization.

So while the vast majority of people who go through the criminal justice system accept a plea deal, people need to realize that when they say they are guilty as charged, they are giving up many rights. It should not be taken lightly.

One of the most common obstacles for hobby writers is that of sentence construction. If your sentences are too short, your information will likely not be conveyed correctly, but if you keep going and going, your reader will lose interest very quickly. See what I mean? That last sentence was an example of a sentence that was too long.

How to tell if your sentences are too long

If your reader can make and drink a cup of tea in the time it takes to write a sentence, that should be a clue. Seriously, the best way to test the length of your sentences is to read them out loud. The rule is that if you need to stop to take a breath, then the sentence should end there.

Long sentences = intelligence?

Some people think that using very long sentences and complicated words means that your reader will see you as smart. This is not true. All it’s going to accomplish is make your work unreadable, or at least extremely boring.

How to break your sentences into manageable parts

If you feel the need to pepper your sentences with conjunctive words, this could be the root of your problems. Conjunctive words are ink words like ‘and’ ‘although’ ‘because’ and ‘however’. These words can often be replaced with full periods, thus eliminating your problem.

The same effect can also be achieved by readjusting the construction of your sentences. This can be done by trying to use fewer words to convey your meaning or by rearranging existing words. Sometimes you may find that what you are trying to say works better as two separate sentences.

Another way to improve the quality of your sentences is to try to remove any unnecessary descriptions. For example, ‘she walked on the frozen ice’ should become ‘she walked on the ice’. Excessive description is boring and adds no conceivable value to your work.

Furthermore, awards must only contain a succinct concept, opinion or thought. If you have too many things in one sentence, you may need to start a new one. Try to think about it from your reader’s point of view and don’t overcomplicate things.

Finally, it is not always necessary to start a new award. One way to fix sentences that seem too long is to apply some form of punctuation, such as commas or semicolons. Several overfactors are needed to determine what is needed and are for another tutorial.

From John Maxwell:

“The pessimist complains about the wind
The optimist expects it to change
The leader adjusts the sails”
“Number one characteristic of a good leader –
The ability to make things happen.”

What about you? Are you adjusting the sails or are you just thinking about it?

Are you taking action or are you still considering it?

How many of us just hate it when someone in a leadership role can’t seem to make a decision? I know personally, it drives me crazy. I have a very simple saying, make up your mind please.

In my first managerial position I had a great boss, he taught me the only thing that has helped me succeed, which is the ability to make decisions.

He had a simple philosophy, “just make one decision and move on, if you made the wrong decision, life will go on, you’ll just have to make another decision to make it right.”

In my first management review I got hammered a lot, not because I was doing a bad job, but simply because I wasn’t making decisions, I was waiting, thinking, analyzing. I can still remember the words, “Manny, you’re doing a great job, but you have to learn to make decisions.”

And you? Do you still think about it?

This isn’t just a business lesson today, it’s a life lesson. If you are the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, or a spouse and parent of 3 children, you need to take action and you need to take responsibility for it.

Many times we are trapped in fear. We are just afraid to pull the trigger.

One of the main problems with leadership today is that we spend a lot of time talking about it, analyzing it, thinking about it.

How about we just make a decision and move on? Why is it so difficult for leaders to make decisions today? Do you know that the higher you go in any organization:

1. The faster you have to make decisions
2. The less information you have to make those decisions
3. The greater the impact of those decisions.

No matter what, you’re never going to have all the information. No matter what, you are always going to run the risk of making a mistake.

From Og Mandino in The World’s Greatest Salesman. “There has never been a map, however, carefully executed to detail and scale that led its owner even an inch of ground. There has never been a scroll of law, however, just enough to prevent a crime. Action is food and the drink that will fuel my success.”

If you find yourself thinking about it, if your team doesn’t seem to be moving the way you know it should, if it seems hesitant, then start this week and make decisions faster.

Remember, it’s okay for leaders to make mistakes. Don’t get sucked into the political model that is always trying to hang the leader for every decision he makes. Success comes from making mistakes. Great leadership comes from making decisions, right or wrong.

Take some action – now – today.

You need to take action. As Joyce Meyer says: “Be aggressive to help others, don’t wait until you feel like it, don’t wait for a supernatural sign that God wants to use you. Just start.”

Nothing happens until you do something. Nothing happens with you or your team until you make the decisions you need to make. Nothing happens until you take action.

A final quote from John Onberg says: “If you want to walk on water, you have to get out of the boat.”

If you want to move on, get off the boat and take action today.
