This week has been a very interesting week because all of the coaching calls and mentoring sessions that I have had revolved around one thing “maximizing what you have.” As I help my clients recognize that it’s all in their hands, I begin to see that very same thing in other areas of my life. Everything that you and I need in this life is available to us, the question is have we maximized what we have before wanting to move to the next level?
What is that thing you think you need to accomplish what you want? Have you paid attention to what is actually in your hand that may give you the same results? Many people often fall into what I call the “I need syndrome” because it is easier to blame their ineffectiveness on the lack of tools, products, personnel or finances.
Here are 5 Simple Principles to help you stay productive while maximizing what you have.
I. Start with the end in mind. Always see yourself at the finish line completing what you started. People who quit during the process will never inherit the promise of the prize.
II. Observe what you have in your hands first. Never look at what you don’t have without maximizing what you do have first. Everything has its purpose in your life, but it is up to you to actually use it effectively.
III. Make use of available resources. Recognize that there are tools in place to help you achieve that which you set out to accomplish. Remember that there is nothing new under the sun so we don’t have to reinvent the wheel.
IV. Appreciate the process. Everything that you go through in life makes you who you are today. Learn to embrace the process and appreciate the outcome.
V. Expect the best outcome. Good is not good enough when excellent is available. Always aim for the stars because the sky is the limit. Dare to dream and your dreams will cause you to dare to live.
Application of these five simple principles in your life will cause you to be productive and effective in every area. Nothing can stop you when you are driven by your passion to accomplish your desires, hopes, and dreams. What do you have in your hand and how will you maximize your productivity.

LIVE TO PRODUCE TODAY!!!
Today, when I woke up my heart was energized and sorrowful at the same time because I learned of the death of two great men late last night. Rev. Fred L. Shuttlesworth a Civil Rights Icon, and Co-Founder of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Steve Jobs, the innovative, vision minded and bold Co-Founder of Apple, home of the iPhone, iPod and iPad and other innovative products.
As I read Tweets and Facebook post honoring these legendary Icons coming home from church last night, I was motivated and energized. Immediately, I begin to examine my life, leadership, loyalty, and legacy. The questions of am I “Mr. Productivity” being productive enough? How am I affecting the lives of others? What am I doing to help those around me to develop and effectively “Live to Produce?” Does my walk match my talk? These are just a few questions that begin racing through my head. I often say “ You are not living unless you are living to produce.” These great men were agents of change effectively living to produce in the earth. Are we making or wasting time? Time waits for no one, and life is too short to live in limbo. Rev. Shuttlesworth was 89 and some would say that he lived a long life, but I would dare to say that 89 is far from the 120 years that the Bible says that we could live. That is 31 years shy of the promise given to man! Steve Jobs was 56 and that is only the second quarter of life according to the biblical principle of life.
These two men have left a great blueprint and example for us to follow. They discovered what their passion and maximized it by utilizing the Law of Productivity. According to Gen 1:28, And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. These great men left their mark on the world by living to produce and staying in the arena of working in their passion.
My life is all about building healthy relationships, making meaningful connections, and leaving a legacy for the future that my family and the world could benefit from. In essence, my life is all about living to produce.
Every day is a great day to enjoy... Never think that it’s just another day because it is not promised. Enjoy the day by springing up and into your potential/purpose. Live life on purpose and by design. ~ Dr. Vernet Joseph
Every morning when you wake up ask yourself will I react or respond to the test, trials, and temptations in life? When you react you reveal that you weren't prepared, but when you respond it shows that you have been diligent in being a student of productivity. ~ Dr. V.A. Joseph
The death of these two pioneers has truly sent a sound blast heard around the world. It has rocked, sorrowed, motivated, and even inspired many to start living to produce. It is my hope that we all learn from their deaths and become even more productive people living life by design and on purpose. Be an agent of change in your family, community, and nation.
