Think Pro

Quote of the day

‘Think Pro and the following accreditations will easily follow: Professionalism, Proactive, Producer, Proficient, Programmer, Projectionist, Prolific, Prominent, Property Owner, Prosperity, Protector and a Provider.’

Welcome to the 4^th day of August. Our theme for today is to think Pro, Act Pro and be a Pro. It may seem rather a tall task but actually it is a very small task. Think big and you shall be big. Build a dream and you shall live your dreams. Have love in your heart and love will flow like blood in every part of your body. I want you to think Pro and attached to this Prefix comes 12 power words which can change your life for the common good. At the beginning of this wonderful month we spoke about merging success with happiness. Most people don’t. Thinking about being a Pro will help you merge success with happiness with that sudden urge and a noted surge. Being positive about yourself despite the negativity around you can change your day in an instance. Always think Pro. Thinking about being a Pro will help you understand the advantages of such an accolade. Firstly, there is Professionalism. Professionalism is your skill in a particular niche developed over the years from experience. The world needs your skill and when you know that you are in demand you automatically cognate success with happiness. The next step is to be Proactive. This evolves from the SHARP Effect which we discussed yesterday. Always remember that a Proactive individual is always active in a positive way. They always subtract negatives from their lives. The next phase of your life is to be a Producer of your unselfish goals. You start by creating valid dreams and then manufacture goals to realise those dreams. You need to be Proficient in all your affairs. Professionalism is a skill in a niche area, proficiency is about being capable in all areas. You need to address the way you speak, tweak, peak, critique, develop your technique, seek your prosperity, focus on your physique and so on. The next step to your glorious success and happiness is to be a Programmer. Now a Programmer is not limited to the IT industry. Programming is about planning, creating, instructing, advising, coordinating and accomplishing. To be an effective Programmer you need to be a good Projectionist. A Projectionist thinks of tomorrow and the day after. They live with awareness of possibilities and impossibilities. They analyse, sacrifice and try to be nice. To be Prolific means that you are serious about your life. It shows that you respect your time and your space. It illustrates that you are always Productive in mind, body and soul. Being Prolific makes you Prominent. People seek you from the weak to the meek because they know well that you show by example, lead by example and live by example. Dear Friends with such a mind-set you will be blessed with a Property of your own. Whatever you spent on rent is of little consequence when your ascent to fame matters. A home owner soon become a Proprietor of their domain and lives a life of Prosperity. That definitely sums up success with happiness. Now that you found your pot of gold it is time to be the Protector of your domain and of your family. To do this effectively you need to be an able Provider that can meet the demands of his or her domain. Think Pro, Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls. Always remember the Bakers dozen of 12 power words to help you along your journey.

PE for Professional Editors

PE for Professional Editors

Quote of the day

‘We need to exercise our unique ability as a PE or Professional Editor to make our lives more fruitful and productive. To do this you need to constantly delete bad memories from your day and store only the good ones. You need to do this daily and you need to do it with professionalism.’

Welcome to the last day of your working week. Are you ready to take on your weekend and make the most of it? How are you feeling today? This is actually a pivotal question? A good response reflects an anticipated yes result. Yes, generally refers to accomplishment and fulfilment at the end of each working day. A bad response generally means that your day was less productive, unfulfilled and unaccomplished. To achieve maximum results in all that you do a system of ethical rules need to be adhered to. Successful people from all walks of life follow similar rules. We spoke largely about good eating and regular workouts to maintain a healthy regime. This is important for all meritocratic goal setters. Choosing the right diet and an apt workout can be a trying and expensive decision.  Soon you will have access to my academy of learning allowing you to choose more easily and freely a wide range of exercises and recipes. Having a stream of positive goals also helps and finding information relating to these goals helps even better. A luxurious car for example can be fortified by gathering related photos, detailed specs and possibly a test drive. To maximise your day, you need to overcome the adversities that come upon you, especially the unexpected ones. Taking these setbacks to heart can make you feel mentally sullen and physically fallen. You need to be a PE or a Professional Editor. You need to professionally edit parts of your day, eliminating the bad bits and retaining the good ones. If something went drastically wrong, don’t worry too much about it, focus on what can be done to rectify or overcome the problem. Living with regrets amplifies the problem. Living to forget attenuates the problem. We all make mistakes in life and therefore we need to make allowances for these mistakes. Learning from a mistake helps you to become a better person. Churning from a mistake makes you worst off. You need to hang onto good and fond memories. Recall these memories whenever you feel sullen or fallen. PE or Professional Editing should be undertaken on a daily basis. Learn from others and be willing to pass on your skills as well. Always remember to edit, delete what needs to be forgotten and save the good memories. Playback the good memories in your mind constantly, it really helps. Have a wonderful weekend. It is your special time off. 

What is life without life itself?

What is life without life itself?

Quote of the day

‘Today I would like to start a series of seven articles called weekday essentials to assist you in making the most of your life on planet Earth. Every second is vital, therefore you need to manage your time and your finances to see your way through.’

Today is the start of a new day in a new week. We cannot hide from it for it has started and it waits for no one. So how did you start your day today? Are you worried about your life, about your future, about your children or about your finances? June 2016 is not far away, are we ready to make a change or are we going to carry our worries into the second half of the New year? One of the main reasons why there is turmoil in our daily lives is that we do not appreciate life in all its glory. To appreciate our life, we need to ask ourselves, 'What is life without life itself? Through my very own experiences in life recorded from the age of 3, I surmised that there is only one form of stress and sadly that is Financial Stress or simply FSS. FSS Stands for the Financial Stress Syndrome. As you read this article you would probably agree that if any problem is carefully analysed their symptoms will always boil down to two fundamental quanta and that is dollars and cents. Yes, Dollars and Cents the monetary brand of human existence has a gripping effect on our lives, every single day. Sadly, money over the years has become the pallbearer of ALL evil. However, it is a necessity that we cannot do without. What is your financial situation at the moment? Are you heavily borrowed or are you struggling to make ends meet? Placing reliance on MAN leaves you in this subtle and vulnerable state of affairs. Currently, MAN has left the entire world in a horrid fiscal state, where a double dip recession seems highly inevitable. What then becomes of Christmas 2016 if only a few could cherish this auspicious day whilst others do not. Twenty-one years ago I was in a financial slump, bereaving over the sudden death of my Mum, destitute, homeless and penniless. I needed to search for answers and I needed to find them quickly. I then placed FULL reliance on GOD and I got answers to ALL my questions that I often asked since a very young age. I have seen or witnessed horrific human behaviour since the age of 3, yes the age of 3, as a young boy that stood helpless whilst watching others suffer. The real question is What is life without life itself? We do not appreciate the presence of others, we shun people, fauna and flora too. We are just engrossed in our daily activities, trying to reach our financial goals at all costs, and that includes hurting others. Today I now stand helpful knowing that I, having witnessed a revelation 21 years ago can now pass this onto you so that you may change your life around like the way I did. So convenient is the title of this article, 'What is life without life itself? From my personal inquisition from The Universe, the faculty of GOD's workshop I saw life from the first instalment to life in its current appearance. Now through my endurance, experiences and exposure over the past 21 years I penned these findings in 3 books called The Modern Day Trilogy. These books are not a religious textbook and neither does it claim to be one. No, this trilogy is about human responsibility and how we all have the right to a fair and equal life on planet Earth. Would you not like to know the answers to ALL questions that remained a conjecture for so long with simple answers that ALL of us can comprehend? Take the bold step now, and be told the truth of life and its importance. Start tomorrow knowing that you can make an individual change so that an overall change can be seen. Become the essence of life by being part of it. Live each day knowing that you have a fundamental role. Live on to your rightful age on planet Earth and that is 100 years. Watch as you change, change as you watch but be the person that you are capable of. Too many years have gone by and our news headlines are deluged with repetitive news that is macabre and unimaginable. This is not the essence of life neither is it the essence of your existence. As you make your first step into a new week, make it knowing that you are embarking on a life changing career spanning the rest of your life on Earth, which 100 - YA. YA is your age! The world is indeed your oyster but the pearl is your treasure. Life is a polymorphism of designated tasks. Every creature that stands alive today is working laboriously to undertake tasks that nature requires. You are part of this jigsaw and you should therefore be not against it but for it. When the end of 2016 is at the foothills of the horizon try to look back and see what contribution you have made to the 4 letter word called LIFE!

Positive Thinking

Positive Thinking

Quote of the day

‘Positive Thinking is the Philosophy behind long-term success moulded in a unique way only visible by the result of your overall actions. Positive Thinking results in Positive Actions. A Negative action is always the result of Negative Thinking.’

Bonus Quote

‘Positive Thinking is about thinking of 8 potent words – Professionalism, Optimism, Success, Inspiration, Temperament, Ideas, Vitality and Enthusiasm.’

A grand welcome to the month of Positivity. Today I want to talk about Positive Thinking. I want to create the energy needed to make life wonderful for you and for me. We are a big family of earthlings working together in a vast world. Without Positive Energy there is no energy or Negative Energy. PE or Positive Energy is designed to get the job done, irrespective of what it is. NE or Negative Energy is the converse, designed to get the job done without the passion without and desire. As Meritocratic Goal Setters we must seek Professionalism in everything that we do. As we expect Professionalism from someone else we must be able to give Professionalism. Professionalism is your skill linked to your expertise. A Baker is a Professional in his or her field, with the ability to take ingredients and churn them into a product. How would you feel if the product or service that you received lacks Professionalism? As we expect to receive we must be able to deliver. Optimism is confidence development in an individual. It is the power to be sure, pure and secure. PE enables you to do that. You think big and you shall be big. You deliver your best and you will get the best. PE settles for no less and no more. Success is the name of the game of your existence. You cannot live to be unsuccessful. You are a human being entitled to a life of success. Without PE success is often eluding. Success is about seeking accomplishment and fulfilment in all that you do with extreme Professionalism. Inspiration is like fuel to an engine. Your body is the engine, your mind is the Driver. Without Inspiration or fuel you cannot succeed. Inspiration from the right source is vital to succeed. Inspiration is like the right grade of petrol for the right engine. Confuse the two and you confuse your future. Temperament is equally important. Yesterday we spoke about other people’s Temperament. Today I want to speak about the importance of your Temperament. You need to maintain calmness in everything that you do, think or say. Blurting out the wrong words or a full sentence can hurt. Thinking without PE can leave you unsettled and lacking confidence. You have to emphasise to yourself that you are the vital link to human happiness. Utter strong words of confidence to yourself and build on that to maintain a reasonable and noted temperament. It is all about Ideas for the present based on the past and about Ideas needed to create the future.  An Idea is actually personal. An Idea comes from a need. What do you need? What do you need to improve your life? A Potion for a Notion? True Vitality comes from PE. When you get up in the morning to be touched by Inspiration you can gauge your Vitality. If your Vitality is low, then your efforts will be slow. If your Vitality is high, then your efforts will reach the sky. Vitality is your get-up-and-go medication for the day. No vitality, no go. All easy said than done but if you lack Enthusiasm in something then nothing will work out. Enthusiasm is the zest that you have in anything that you engage in. It is pointless to create a task for tomorrow when there is no passion and desire. All tasks inputted into your memo for tomorrow must be done with passion and desire. No Enthusiasm often results in Sarcasm. Dear Friends, latch onto PE every second of your life. Think big and be big. Think Positive and remain Positive. Think Success and you shall succeed. Think life and you shall live. Think love and you shall love even more. Think divine and you shall become refined. Think about peace and you shall create a masterpiece of your contribution to all humanity. Think rich and you shall become rich in your heart. Think accomplishment and you will avoid self-punishment. Think about the birds and the bees and they will think about you in their next migration cycle. Think about our children and they will look after you in the future. Think about the animals and let them roam in the wild like before. Think about the plants by planting a new tree, a new shrub, a new flower bed, a new daffodil, a new hedge, a new forest or a new pasture. Thank you for finding the time to read my Inspirational tweets. Think PE every second of your life. It is the backbone to your overall success.

Professional Multitasking or PM

Professional Multitasking or PM

Quote of the day

‘Professional Multitasking or PM should always be everlasting. PM is about affixing a specific time to each task and arranging them in a chronological order to be done sequentially. To ensure professionalism we cannot bask in a single task all day. We cannot mask a task either for this will then lead to procrastination and eventual misrepresentation or simply unprofessionalism.’

Welcome to your very own private day called Sunday. Many will say it is the first day of a new week. I often say it is the first day of my new life where I gather all my tasks for the week and arrange them in a chronological order. I am my very own boss during the weekends and as I relax and rest my physical machinery my mental cerebrum and cerebellum is constantly working. Yesterday was typical of that for as I sat I watched, as I watched I captured and as I captured I started to create and as I created I began to see what tomorrow shall be like. From simple footages and memories of last week I formed a collage of manageable tasks to perform starting from tomorrow. Today I need to arrange them sequentially, chronologically and then list them potentially. When I say potentially what I am implying is that I am only looking at possibilities rather than actualities. By the end of today I need to switch potential tasks into essential tasks. Before the dawn of a new working week I shall have by my side, signed, sealed and approved my working tasks or my memorandum for the week ending on the 27th of November 2015. My mission then is to accomplish these tasks in a professional way without hurting anyone in the process. If I am able to do this then I am able to do anything unselfishly. I am then able to say that I can professionally multitask. In other words I am then a certified PM. Multitasking to a computer is somewhat different as opposed to multitasking in our daily lives. Multitasking in Computers is about the concurrent performance of several jobs at the same time. Human beings do this all the time. Our brain stem is largely responsible for this. We do but may not be aware of it. We digest food while we can talk. We can talk but think about something else. We can think about something else but look at something different. By looking at something different we can also excrete, secrete, be sweet, have a treat and remain discrete at the same time. This is what I call auto-multitasking. PM performances on the other hand comes from focussing on the task at hand, giving it you’re very best and concluding it within the time frame you set out for today. What I am talking about today which is crucial to your overall success is PM or Professional Multitasking. In others do what you have to but do it now and do it professionally. Many people try to multitask as depicted in the above video, this is foolish. You cannot walk and talk without getting into trouble. Bumping into people and speaking above your voice in waiting rooms is totally unprofessional. You cannot drive and smoke or drive and speak on the phone. This is illegal and very unprofessional. PMs always look for Professionalism at ALL times. They do something and they do it well. They focus and they take notice. They focus on what they have to do and take notice of what they have done. They look at time constraints like an athlete that needs to run the 100m in a specified time. Do they stop and talk or rather walk? No, they focus and focus their energies in what needs to be done at that specified time. This is PM and this is how you become a certified PM. Training for the 100m is done at a different time. Eating the right foods is also administered at scheduled times. Athletes don’t eat and run at the same time. Start tomorrow by working towards being a PM for life.

Prayer

Prayer

Quote of the day

‘Starting your day in Prayer will guide you for the rest of your day, over the hurdles of inhibitions that awaits you, down the corridors of confusion that makes you hesitate and through the matrix of stress related symptoms that dampens your spirits.’

Dear Friends, welcome to the start of a new working week. I wish you a success, joy and happiness from the bottom of my heart. With a plan of action and a sense of passion you can become accomplished and fulfilled at the end of each working work. To achieve success at the end of each working week creates an enormous triumph that can be felt within you. I know this feeling because I feel it at the end of each working week. It is a feeling that generates a desire to spend your weekends with the fondness of being alive and well. This is the concord of life whereupon each individual seeks to serve and to serve professionally, assertively, sincerely, spiritually, incessantly, optimistically and naturally. I call this the PASSION effect. To initiate such warmth in the approach to your day I always urge my readers to start their day in prayer. Starting your day in prayer generate passion in your life. With passion you have the power, the energy and the dynamics to achieve your goals. Without starting your day in Prayer, there is a good chance that your day will be ruined. There is a good chance that you will feel unwell, confused, stressed and muddled over what to do. Sadly there is good and bad in the open fields of society and this is something you should not doubt. There is good and bad in continents across the globe and in the divisions within each continent. There is good and bad in each city, across the demarcations of class, industry and retail. There is good and bad in our streets, in every alley and in the quietest cul-de-sacs. There is good and bad in each dwellings from the biggest mansions to the shacks that spring up as a result of unfairness. There is good and bad in every human being including you and me. To experience the wonders of life I say onto you and verily too, start your day in Prayer. Starting your day in prayer in the solitude of you home creates the warmth and glow in your heart to succeed in your new day ahead of you. There is good and bad in the world, and there will always be. There is good and bad in us and therefore I urge you to pray each day. Praying makes you humble. Humbleness creates friends and reduces enemies. A prayer a day certainly keeps the evildoer away. You made your request now let the angels follow you and guide you to a better day. I wish you a better day today. If you are ready to leave home, go back and pray right way. Fill your heart with devotion and sincerity. Fill your memo with scheduled tasks and stick to this throughout your day. Believe in the PASSION effect. Be Professional in all that you do. Be Assertive when performing your tasks. Be Sincere to your fellow human being. Be Spiritual in your heart and start your day sincerely with a prayer. Be Incessant in your performance and let your output be a continuous flow of positivity. Be Optimistic about your life and about your goals and how you shall reach 100 years in the warmest of feelings. Have the Natural flair and flare in you and let our Heavenly Father be proud of your daily contributions to humanity. 

Your Daily Agenda

Your Daily Agenda

Quote of the day

‘To achieve Success in life you need to achieve an accomplished and fulfilling day. To do this you need to administer your time methodically and plan ahead logically using a Daily Agenda.

Dear Friends, I only realised the sheer importance of keeping a diary when I was given a second chance in life 21 years ago. I always carried a diary with me at all times in the past but my entries were not as professional as they should have been and they lacked the abilities that an entrepreneur to success would have in maintaining, updating and accomplishing the tasks listed in their diary. So, I thought about it in a logical manner and wondered what I did wrong that made me unprofessional and a procrastinator of valuable time. Diaries did exist in various formats but they did not contain the right pages for me to enter my scheduled tasks and in order for me to become professional I needed to create my own diary which I later did, called Destinations. Unlike other Diaries Destinations would become a revolutionary tool for me, allowing me to schedule my day according to my abilities and run a life that is freer, happier and of cause professional. To understand the concept of being professional we first need to define it. As human beings we are servants and sole custodians of the living world. This is a fact because you cannot prove otherwise. As servants of the living world and sole custodians in particular of our domains we need to exercise our roles in a professional manner. Professionalism is about undertaking a task or a series of tasks with the ability to execute them effectively and efficiently, nothing more or nothing less. To develop this skill takes time and time ensures that you gain the necessary experience to do just that. The buck does not stop there because technology is constantly changing and therefore we need to change with it. It does not hurt to learn, it does not hurt to learn when you are older either. Every day is a learning curve. Sometimes things do not work out as planned, professionalism takes cognisance of that and makes relevant adjustments. To make your day work you need to use a Diary, I recommend Destinations, details of which may be found in The Databank Times. A daily agenda is your blueprint to your life on Earth, written in your own handwriting and planned in advance with your ideas. A successful agenda is one that has all tasks for the day accomplished in a professional manner and done as per the allocated time. Management of your Time is the Key to your overall Success. Time per day must be equated in seconds rather than minutes or hours. The life of a meritocratic Goal Setter is defined as follows: All Entrepreneurs of Real Success utilises their allocated 86,400 seconds per day profitably and wisely.  They plan in advance in a logical way, dividing their daily tasks into allocated time slots. Their then spend their day working methodically to execute all their tasks with passion and desire in a professional and unselfish way. Professionalism comes from experience. It is the skill or knowhow of doing something effectively. Entering a task in your daily agenda or memorandum depends on your ability to execute it. Many of us fail at this point because we enter tasks into our memorandum but lack the professionalism to accomplish it. Accomplishment and Fulfilment are key strategies in making your day work and making your life a success. To become professional in anything that you do has a starting point and an ending bonanza. The starting point is your entry into your memorandum. An example would be a meeting at say 10:00am. Attending the meeting on time is one thing but to be prepared and partake in the rudiments of the meeting is another? Do you have the professionalism to do so? Did you plan ahead? Did you do sufficient research to put forward proposals?  As you can see to think logically enables you to plan systematically for anything whether it is a picnic or a meeting. To enter a list of tasks to accomplish for the day in your memorandum is based on your methodology summoned by your professionalism. If you are not as yet professional in that chosen field you then need to learn to become professional. This is the starting point I am referring to. The ending point is your reward whereupon you execute all your tasks professionally and with relative ease.

‘The Art of Professionalism’

Quote of the day

‘Professionalism separates success from failure. It is the canny Art of exercising good deeds on a daily basis that works effectively amongst the squalor nature of people that you meet that only seem to care for themselves.’

We often confuse Professionalism by limiting it to our skills and our competence. Yes, we do become skilled and competent in our profession as we gain experience through maturity. Professionalism however is a limitless talent a human being could ever possess. It is the know-how or Savoir-faire of an individual irrespective of gender or culture that carries them to personal stardom. It is a faculty of human deployment that if used properly gives them success every single day. It is an art that we need to practise and to pass on from generation to generation. Professionalism is our shining armour to gallantry in the workplace, valour in the corridors of time and space and it is the talent of being a charming person at home. Professionalism takes a simple situation and leaves it simple. The converse of Professionalism is Incompetence. It is incompetence at work, at home or at school that gets us into trouble and makes simplicity, complexity. We need to change this, we need to change it right away. We need to carry our cheerful spirit gathered together over the weekend into our working week. Professionalism helps us to do just that. Professionalism clarifies a simple Quote:

·         Quote – Avoidance is better than pursuance. (UF)

Yes, Dear Friends Avoidance lasts for a split second, at home, at work or at school. Pursuance on the other hand lasts for a lifetime. With pursuance you are immediately sapping away valuable time from your agenda or your scheduled agenda. Pursuance makes you procrastinate and very unprofessional. Professionalism is about understanding human behaviour or more specific the temperament of another human being based on your circumstances. Our circumstances is what seems to get us into trouble. We stand in the queue and trouble maybe standing behind us. If sit in the waiting room, trouble maybe sitting next to us. We stand in the canteen and trouble maybe standing right in front of us. When we steer our vehicle trouble seems to steer itself in front of us. Trouble makes you culminate into rubble and stubble into worthless actions. I say onto you that if trouble stumbles upon your front door, or your left foot, or your office desk let it pass. Yes, let it pass. Let it pass away like never before. Let it be forgotten before the next second arrives. This is practise of Professionalism. This is the area of your life that you need to deploy and a daily basis.  This is where Man meets Man and Women meets Man or vice versa. This is where friends are made and enemies are reduced. I want you to become Professional by following the footsteps of The Professionals, I want you to show by example so that others may follow you. Start at home, start in the bedroom, start in your street but start right away. Remember a daily dose of professionalism carries you to new frontiers in life.
