What have you done in the last 365 days that you set out to do? Have you considered that it’s not over yet?
It has been my observation over the years that despite the location I have been in, in the world at this particular time of year that the outcome or atmosphere has always been the same. People begin to reflect on their life and ask themselves what have I accomplished? It starts right after Thanksgiving! Thoughts of buying gifts, seeing loved ones and embracing the conclusion of yet another year start to overwhelm peoples mind.
The songs of holiday cheer fill the air and every shopping establishment known to man. The hearts of the less fortunate sink while the pockets of the retail stores overflow. Then it hits, right about the beginning of the second week of December. What did you set out to do for this year? Have actually accomplished it? After careful thought, we immediately shift to I will just add it to the following year’s list. Not this year! Let us make 2011 the starting of a new way of doing things.
Take the time over the next couple of days to be grateful for what you have accomplished and recognize what held you back from accomplishing the other items on your list. Remember 2010 is not over until it’s over! Continue looking for opportunities that present themselves that will allow you to maximize your list.
In 2010 I relocated to the states, set up two households, established this blog, started my own radio show, received another degree, begin pursing a degree in another field, became the COO of a corporation, mentored three teams of hungry professionals, coached several people on how to live with full expectation in life, developing the live 2 produce resource center and am still on the grind…
As you reflect over what you have done this year, make sure you learn from your mistakes and capitalize on every opportunity available to get better.

SHIFTING GEARS TO PRODUCE
Have you ever considered getting better at what you do? Do you actually believe in some of the things you say? It is time for you to shift gears and begin to live productively. Living and being busy is not the same as living productively! You have to take time out to actually think about what you desire out of life, then devise a plan to get there, and start walking the journey to receive the promise that you saw in your dream. I learned that what I dream is simply my imagination taking me to places where I desire to go. The issue that we all face is what do we do after we wake up? Do we think that these things are out of reach or do we simply make plans to achieve what we desire?
Today I want to give you three simple tips to living a productive life.
1. Stay committed to what you say you are going to do.
People are only going to expect from you what you said you are going to do and accomplish! It is so important for your credibility and your integrity. Make small goals that lead up to your big goals so that you are consistent.
2. Stick with people who can assist you in getting to your goals.
Your circle of influence must be equal to the level that you are trying to achieve. Everyone needs someone that is able to teach them something. The moment you think you are the end all meet all within your group it is time to shift circles again. You can still associate but for influence sake you got to make the shift.
3. Serve by giving back to those who haven’t learn what you have mastered.
Society is so filled with the “I did it by myself” syndrome. That is why many communities can’t be unified and won’t go any further than just dreaming. In order to be productive in life you are going to have to help someone. “No man is an island” aint that the truth, but everyone is floating on a raft and tide is about to sweep them away. I learned an acronym in TEAM that I want to share and think will help all.
Together
Everyone
Achieves
More
We can all go further faster if we just take the time and get focused. Stay committed to what you say you are going to do. Stick with people who can assist you in getting to your goals. Serve by giving back to those who haven’t learn what you have mastered.
Join me tomorrow on the Live 2 Produce show as we discuss changing the paradigm to Health and Wellness. You don't want to miss tomorrows show! If you are up for the challenge the call-in number is (323) 443-7516. Tell a friend it's going down on the Live 2 Produce show…
