WELCOME TO DIVINE CONCEPT

Do you dream of being the CEO of a Fortune 500 company? Have you wanted to buy that new home you’ve dreamed of for so many years? Exactly what is your idea of success?
Success is having achieved that which you determine you will do! YOU determine what success is for you. It’s not based on any judgment other than your own. It’s not dependent upon materialistic measurements. And, for some, success is the journey, itself. Success may be something material, such as money or a new home. It could be something egotistical, as the power and notoriety that comes with the position of CEO. It could be emotional, as finding love and commitment. Success may even be unselfish and altruistic, as seeing children in third world countries healthy and safe. Success has no particular name or identity. There is no one method to describe what success is, other than the definition above. It means something different to each individual. All successful people, however, have one thing in common — determination! To be a success, you must first determine to be so. Though not always a conscious decision, the seed that leads to action is to first determine. stay tunned.........

My Prince Charming Which later becomes Prince Harming

WELCOME TO DIVINE CONCEPT PLC

When I first met him, he was like the prince charming I watched in Cinderella, his smile was like a charm. He smelled like an altar of roses, He was like the cutest guy I’ve ever met, He swept me off my foot when he could quote the scriptures like Apostle Paul, he was so vast in the scriptures, He was everything I ever dreamed of in a man! Alas! I was so eager and looked forward to the day he would ask me to be his, my dream came true when he looked into my eyes and said “I love you, can we take this friendship a step further, I want to make you the mother of my children, I promise you won’t regret it” without thinking about I gave him a yes I do, just like a little girl who got first position in her class I felt so proud, having a man like him to call mine. Little did I know my handsome Jewel needs to be broken, Just on a beautiful Thursday morning we were going out, I met this my longtime friend, I just flew at him and he hugged me, little did I know my price charming was angry, with excitement in me jumping to tell him about my friend the next thing I heard was a resounding slap on my cheek, he came back apologizing telling me it would not happen again. Love forgives, so I forgave him. Months later we got married it was like a big dream come through. Just 6months after my wedding my husband started beating the one time sweet guy I knew became a monster. As a Christian wife all I had to do was endure.
Singles, I’m sure you don’t want a story like hers, you have a whole lot of time to get it right, marriage is too long to endure, Brothers and sisters deal with those little foxes, we aint all perfect but we can be better. Create a marriage your kids will be proud of…… ‪#‎Onome Omodara Oluwabunmi speaks‬#

WHEN GOD’S IMAGE IS DEFACED, LIFE’S RELATIONSHIPS LOSE PURPOSE.

WHEN GOD’S IMAGE IS DEFACED, LIFE’S RELATIONSHIPS LOSE PURPOSE.
It is a tragedy that in much of today’s society the differences between man and woman are blurred and distorted. The pure, natural image of God is being destroyed. There is endless talk about women’s equality, but in practice women are abused and exploited more than ever before. In films, on television, in magazines, and on billboards the ideal woman (and increasingly, the ideal man) is portrayed as a mere sex object. Generally speaking, marriages in our society are no longer regarded as sacred. Increasingly they are seen as experiments or as contracts between two people who measure everything in terms of their own interests. When marriages fail, there is almost always the option of no-fault divorce, and after that a new attempt at marriage with a new partner. Many people no longer even bother to make promises of faithfulness; they just live together. Women who bear and raise children or stay married to the same husband are sometimes scorned. And even when their marriage is a healthy one, they are often seen as victims of oppression who need to be “rescued” from male domination. Children are often no longer treasured. In Genesis, God commanded, “Be fruitful and increase.” Today we avoid the “burden” of unwanted offspring by means of legalized abortion. Children are viewed as a bother; they are too expensive to be brought into the world, to be raised, to be given a college education. They are an economic strain on our materialistic lives. They are even too time-consuming to love. Is it any wonder that so many in our time have lost hope? That so many have given up on the possibility of enduring love? Life has lost its value; it has become cheap; most people no longer see it as a gift from God. Advances in biomedical engineering and in fetus screening techniques enable growing numbers of couples to choose an abortion for selfish reasons. Without God, life is absurd, and there is only darkness and the deep wound of separation from him. Despite the efforts of many dedicated individuals, the church today has failed miserably in grappling with this situation. All the more, each of us must go back to the beginning and ask ourselves once again, “Why did God create man and woman in the first place?” God created every person in his image, and he has set a specific task for every man, woman, and child on this earth, a task he expects us to accomplish. No one can disregard God’s purpose for his creation or for himself without suffering deep inner need (Ps. 7:14– 16). The materialism of our time has emptied life of moral and spiritual purpose. It hinders us from seeing the world with awe and wonder, and it hinders us from seeing our true task. The sickness of soul and spirit brought about by consumerism has eaten so deeply into our conscience that it is no longer able to mirror good and evil clearly. Yet there is still a deep-seated need in each of us that makes us long for goodness. We will find healing only if we believe firmly that God created us and that he is the giver of life, love, and mercy. As we read in the third chapter of the Gospel of John, “God so loved the world that he gave his only son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God sent his son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.”

SEX, GOD AND RELATIONSHIPS

Everywhere today, people are searching for lasting and meaningful relationships. The myth of romance continues to be taken for granted by millions, and a new generation of young men and women has accepted the belief that sexual freedom is the key to fulfillment. But as desperately as people want to believe in the sexual revolution of the last few decades, it is clear to many of them that something has gone terribly wrong. Instead of bringing freedom, the sexual revolution has left countless wounded and isolated souls. As we face the great anguish around us, it is more important than ever for all of us, young and old, to consider the direction of our lives and ask ourselves where we are headed. The twenty-first century heralds the loss of the clear teachings of the Old and New Testaments on marriage and the relationship of the sexes. We have turned against God and rebelled against his order of creation, and we have justified our rebellion with human arguments. We have ignored the words of Jesus and scorned the voice of the Spirit. But we have found neither freedom nor fulfillment. As a mentor, I have counseled many people over the years, especially singles. For many of them, the sexual sphere is not an area of joy but one of frustration, confusion, and even despair. People look for unity of heart and soul with one another, but they are so blinded by the notion of romantic love that their deepest longings remain obscured. They know that marriage and sexual union is a gift from God; that it should be the most intimate and rewarding relationship a man and a woman can share. But they wonder why it has become the source of such loneliness and pain for them and for so many others. I am no social scientist. But if the findings of recent studies have made anything clear it is this: the fallout caused by our culture’s acceptance of casual sex is socially devastating. More than half of all marriages in the United States fail. Almost forty percent of America’s children live in different houses than their biological fathers. Poverty, violent crime, delinquency, promiscuity, alcohol and drug abuse, mental illness, and suicide are all rooted in the breakdown of the family and the erosion of the marriage bond. At the same time, those who save sexual activity until marriage (though their numbers are dwindling) are far less likely to have an affair or divorce, and those who commit themselves to one lifelong partner lead happier lives.1 While current trends point to continuing decay, there are encouraging signs that people are beginning to call into question the thrills of cheap sex and the seeming ease of uncommitted love. This is especially true among “Gender’s.” There is an increased yearning among young people to find genuine relationships and to build secure homes, giving renewed hope that a two-parent family is still possible. Again and again I have seen that when people are willing to surrender their lives to Jesus, they are able to find a way out of their unhappiness. Once people have the courage and humility to face his call to repentance, he can bring them lasting freedom and happiness. Jesus brings true revolution. He is the original source of love, because he is Love itself. His teaching is neither a matter of prudishness nor of permissiveness: he offers his followers an entirely different way. He brings a purity that liberates us from sin and leads to the possibility of a completely new life. There is very little in today’s culture that nurtures or protects the new life that Jesus wants to give us. People talk incessantly about the importance of committed marriages and wholesome family life, but how many of us are willing to take action to make these values a concrete reality? Many of us are tempted to blame society for the influences that corrupt us. But what about us so-called Christians? How many of us are ready to unplug the television set and take a hard look at our own marriages and relationships and our personal lives? How many of us actually support the brothers and sisters around us in the daily struggle for purity? How many of us stick out our necks to confront the sin in each other’s lives? How many of us are really accountable? There is tremendous pain among those who claim to be followers of Christ: broken families, battered wives, neglected and abused children, and sinful relationships. Yet instead of an outcry, there is indifference. When will we wake up and realize that our apathy is destroying us? More than ever, we need to come back to an understanding of the church as a living body of committed members who share life in practical deeds of love. But we must start with ourselves first and then see where we can encourage those around us. We need to know our youth well enough to be able to guide them as they seek relationships and lifetime commitments; we need to provide ongoing support for the marriages around us; we need to work for healing when our brothers or sisters stumble or fall – and accept their help when we ourselves have fallen. Most of all, we must show the world that the unique teachings of Jesus and his apostles are the only answer to the spirit of our time. That is why I have put together this little book. I am neither a biblical scholar nor a professional therapist, and I am fully aware that most of what I have written is completely contrary to popular wisdom. But I do feel the urgent need to share my certainty that Jesus’ call to a life of love, purity, honesty, and commitment is our only hope.
This is not only meant as a personal book – it comes out to bless the life of the church community I serve. My hope is that all of us – all men and women of our time – might stop to reconsider God’s purpose for sex and marriage. Sadly, too many people today have simply given up on the possibility of a pure life. They have bought into the myth of sexual “liberation” and tried to live with its disappointments, and when their relationships fall apart, they explain away their failures. They fail to see what a tremendous gift purity is. All the same, I believe that deep in every heart there is a yearning for unclouded relationships and for a love that lasts. It takes courage and self-discipline to really live a different way, but it is possible. Wherever there is a faithful church – a community of people who are committed to living in genuine and honest relationships – there is help and hope for every person and every marriage.

WELCOME TO DIVINE CONCEPT

The Power of Focus

One of the more important points I have made in writing about in most of my articles has been the idea that you really do create your own life and your own reality.
I know this idea has become a kind of personal growth cliche that many of us have heard over and over.
Many people, after continuing to experience the same old ups and downs and personal dramas over many years, get to the point where they dismiss this idea as charming but useless - or just plain wrong.
"If I'm creating this, then I'm certainly not doing it on purpose," they say. "It sure seems like this is HAPPENING to me, rather than that I'm creating it."
They just assume that it's all because "this and this are going on for me, and I have no control over it, and anyone who thinks I'm creating this doesn't understand what I'm going through."
Essentially, they are resigning themselves to be a victim of their circumstances.
We live in a universe of infinite complexity and many forces - way too many to keep track of - operate on us. Yes, it is true that we are NOT in control of everything that happens, because we are not in control of most of those infinite other parts of the universe.
In fact, the only thing you have total and complete control over is...

....YOUR OWN MIND.

That is, if you learn how to exercise it.
Luckily, this one thing - your mind - that you do have control over gives you tremendous power.
By exercising control over your mind, you can get the rest of those infinite other parts of the universe to begin to march in formation.
The person who says, "If I'm creating this, it certainly isn't on purpose," is right. They are not creating what is happening to them "on purpose."
Who would purposely create failure, or bad relationships, or any other suffering? As I said in Principle #6, you can only do something that is not good for you, that is harmful to you, if you do it unconsciously. This means if you are creating something you don't want, you must be doing so unconsciously.
Your mind is running on automatic pilot, based on "software" (unconscious programming) installed when you were too young to know any better, by parents, teachers, friends, the media, and other experiences and influences.
The key is to become more conscious, more aware... to get yourself off automatic pilot. Once you do this, you stop creating all the dramas and other garbage you don't want in your life.
How do you do this? One way, of course, is to use the priority program, because listening to Holosync increases your ability to be consciously aware.
As you continue with the program, doing this becomes easier and more automatic. That "watcher" part of you becomes stronger and stronger, until it is watching over everything, and with that degree of conscious awareness, it is pretty difficult to create anything that is not beneficial for you.
You can help things along, however, by remembering and using a very important piece of wisdom. It's the fact that whatever you focus on manifests as reality in your life.

Thoughts of Life

You may not be able to choose your lot in life, but you can choose how to handle your lot because a man’s countenance tells a lot about him than his cloths or wears.

When you are surfing and there is a big wave coming your way, you can choose to either catch it or avoid it or be overwhelmed by it, rise above your problem and ride them to victory rather than letting them drown you, life is a school, life is in phases and men are in sizes.

Those who learn to love and help others graduate with honors, God can do anything for you if you simply give him the chance and honesty, a kind word spoken in love lift the spirit and refreshes the soul but envies dry the bone.

Forget trying to figure out what will bring you happiness, but try to make others happy and then happiness will find you.

If you want the key to someone’s heart, accept them and love them for whom they are.

If you let pressure dictate your life and chase out all the enjoyment, it’s like telling a fool to dictate your schedule and forbid you enjoying your family and friends.

Love is saying you are sorry, showing faith and trust in someone who is shawn by others will often gain you a loyal friend who has faith and trust in you.

It’s better to try and fail than never to try at all.

Be thankful for what you have and not sad about what you do have.

Boredom is something we all allow over and over again and from time to time but if we look through the binoculars of faith and optimisms we can see beyond the cloud and catch a glimpse of the mysteries of life which are as numerable as the stars.

Change the things that need changing, leave other things that don’t need changing and ask God to help you know the difference.

If you can’t see the stars twinkles in the night in the sky, it doesn’t mean they have disappeared they are just behind the blanket of clouds and you will see them shine again.

Peace, righteousness, fairness, justice, goodness, mercy and love will cover the whole world in burst tomorrow when the entire world will be free from hatred towards each other.

Progress in life, business or any project comes through taking initiative and continuing to press on with new strategies, concept and plans, the original momentum isn’t enough but progress will fail unless you give yourself some inspiration and fill of fresh ideas. 

BALANCING WORK AND FAMILY

The big question out now is how to balance work with family where everyone feels there are too much to do in just little time, they feel their relationship, family and children are suffering because of the little time they created for them because of work and they don’t know what to do about it. Because of this precarious economic time and the thought of economic meltdown, they are thinking of holding on to their jobs and these reduce the quality of their home life. The issue of balance is not going to go away but going to be critical for the rest of your life If it is not maintained.

The change of work over and over again will not bring balancing but a change in the Mind, Heart and Attitude of the individual. Following the Philosophy, Psychology, Religion and Metaphysical about life I have come to discover that how well you are doing in life is determined by the level of your happiness. How happy you are is the best indicator that your life is going well or not, you can’t make any one happy if you are not, someone once said you cannot help someone who is poor by becoming poor so you cannot help people to be happy by being unhappy yourself because you can’t give what you don’t have. Resent research shows that children are better off with single parent that is happy rather than two parents that is sad and nagging. Nothing good comes out of something bad.

Before you could really say you want to balance your life, you have to first sit down to reflect your life, to know who you are and you begin with your values;

Ø  What are those things that are really important to me?

Ø  What are the things I care about?

Ø  Why am i doing what am doing?

People don’t get the results they wanted because they've stopped thinking and asking themselves these questions, but they get frecktic  activity they get busier and busier with things with more less value but have forgotten that the ability to think is the most powerful tools they have to ensure a balance and a happy life. Some people had to have a massive failure in life before they can think some life threatening issues while some will have their marriage collapse before they wake up some people needed to be given a hot slap on their face just to call them to order. You need to know that the people in your life are the most valuable thing you have, some parents go the long way to die for their children but dyeing for them is not the issue but can you live for your children? Anything your mind can conceive you can achieve.

Sit down to think and design a perfect life style for yourself, your family and work from dawn to dusk, Monday to Friday, List out your priorities, how you will like to live, stay with your spouse and design a dream life like where would you decided to live, what would you like to be doing, how many hours a day would i like to be doing it, what would you like to be doing in your leisure time, if your company or industry destroys completely thereby leaving you out on the street what will you do?, if you have the chance of choosing your life time work what would you like to do and who would you like to do it with?, how much would you like to be earning, what are the activities you did like to engage in and the people you did like to associate with and especially the time you will like to spend with people that are close to you. Once you have draft out how you want your life style, take a look at where you are now and draw out 3 boxes and name the first one now, the second 5 years’ time and the last future. Ask yourself what you can do to get what I want within the next five years. The best way to predict a future is to create it, the best way to ensure that you are where you want to be in five years is to design it and begin building it step by step and day by day and you will find out you are already where you want to be after five years.

Keep working about your dream list, keep thinking about your idea life and know that all you want to do is right there before you and the opportunity will materialize in no time with all this you need to realize you have to spend much time with your families and relationships. Let me share my little story with you. When I was given Admission into FUTA I never thought of contesting for any position at the student union level until my 200level when my sense of purpose begin to manifest, and before that I have being helping people with relationship issue and holding a couple myself. This made me believe even if I get married I can never have problem in marriage because I fully understand what it takes to be in a relationship or marriage but I was wrong, I was successful in my other relationship because there wasn’t much responsibility committed to me. When the time of our election was announced the work became tensed because I still have a lot to cover before the Election Day which made me to neglect some of my responsibility. To my ought most surprise I lost everything; my relationship, my ambition, spiritual until I got to accept that maturity does not come with age but the acceptance of responsibility and fulfilling it. Life taught me a lesson in a hard way that I will never forget because of my imbalance, there is lot of people out there who had suffered the same fate I did but I want to spare you the pain like Paul the Apostle said those who marry will face many troubles in this life and I want to spare you of this (1corinthians 7:28b).

Here are the keys to balancing: it’s simple but it’s not easy to do it’s easy to explain but very complex to practice.

Do two things: Work and Family and if you are still single replace the word family with relationships, you must keep your life and relationship balance by allocating ambient time to spend with other people, if you don’t you will tend  to go to extreme and become narrow in your focus or become critical in your behavior. In dividing your time between work and family this is the solution I found out working for me and some others, imagine you have a picture of water and you have two large glasses and several small glasses, now imagine that this picture is a matter of time you have each day or each week, imaging that the two large glasses represent your work and family life and smaller glasses represent all the other activities you are engaged in. Think of filling the two large glasses which are work and family to the brim and then allocating whatever water is left among other  glasses based on their importance to you, the big mistake that many people make is that they allocate there water which is their time to work and many to the other small glasses and put what is left over to the large glasses that represent the family, very often what is left over is not enough to fill the glass and that is not enough to fulfill your responsibilities and you ask in dismay where do all the time go. Develop the habit of working all the time you work, don’t waste time when you are on a job if you work from 9am-5pm immediately you close for the day don’t stop and start wasting time on the way. The time you spend socializing at work as to be taken away if you really have a work to do since work time is hard time and family time is soft time your natural tendency will take the hard time you need a way from the soft time, when you waste your time socializing at work you are actually taking time away from your family by spending time with the other person. The question you have to ask is this what you want to do? Is it more important that I spend more time with people in my work or with the people I love or with anyone else in the world? If you really much care about your family you will work all the time you work and when you are at home be with your family one hundred percent of your time, don’t make the mistake of  just being physically present while you are busy with the television or reading the newspaper or even worse working on stuff from the office or on telephone but you need to be there with your family for them to get the full benefit of your present, they need your focus and undivided attention, they need you to look at them in the eye and talk to them to ask them questions and they listen to you and joke with them.

Use quality time at home and quantity time at work and the key to happiness is for you not miss them up

With this little piece I believe we should be able to balance our work and family….. Love you all and hoping to see better families and relationships……..DIVINE.

Significance of VALENTINE

The history of Valentine's Day is obscure, and further clouded by various fanciful legends. The holiday's roots are in the ancient Roman festival of Lupercalia, a fertility celebration commemorated annually on February 15.
Pope Gelasius I recast this pagan festival as a Christian feast day circa 496, declaring February 14 to be St. Valentine's Day. Valentines Galore Which St. Valentine this early pope intended to honor remains a mystery: according to the Catholic Encyclopedia , there were at least three early Christian saints by that name. One was a priest in Rome, another a bishop
in Terni, and of a third St. Valentine almost nothing is known except that he met his end in Africa. Rather astonishingly, all three Valentines were said to have been martyred on Feb. 14. Most scholars believe that the St. Valentine of the holiday was a priest who attracted the disfavor of Roman emperor Claudius II around 270. At this stage, the factual ends and the mythic begins.
According to one legend, Claudius II had prohibited marriage for young men, claiming that
bachelors made better soldiers. Valentine continued to secretly perform marriage ceremonies but was eventually apprehended by the Romans and put to death. Another legend has it that Valentine, imprisoned by Claudius, fell in love with the daughter of his jailer. Before he was executed, he allegedly sent her a letter signed "from your Valentine." Probably the most plausible story surrounding St. Valentine is one not focused on Eros (passionate love) but on agape (Christian love): he was martyred for refusing to renounce his religion. This is the kind of love tehat we are expected to show the God kind of love (agape). Lets see the God kind of love!
Characteristics of The God-Kind of Love, And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but THE GREATEST OF THESE IS CHARITY [love]. —1 Corinthians 13:13 He that loveth not knoweth not God; FOR GOD IS LOVE. —1 John 4:8 The Bible says that God is love. It also says that love is even greater than faith or hope. Well, since God is love, then we need to know what love is—that is, the God-kind of love. In First Corinthians 13:13, the King James Version of the Bible translates the word "love" as charity. Actually, it is to be regretted that the word "agape" was translated as charity because it doesn't really express the full meaning of the Greek word that is used in this verse. According to the dictionary, the word "charity" means a benevolent goodwill toward or love of humanity. But the actual Greek word that is used here is "agape," which means the love of God. Elsewhere in the New Testament, the word "agape" is translated love instead of charity. For example, in First John 4:8, the Bible literally says, "God is agape." In other words, God is love. So the word "agape" means the God-kind of love. What is agape or the love of God? Before I answer that, let me show you something interesting about the love of God. The Bible says that love is greater than either hope or faith (1 Cor. 13:13). Why is God's love greater than hope or faith? First of all, faith won't work without love. In other words, faith is dependent on love in order to work. Galatians 5:6 says, "For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love." You can readily see that love would have to be greater if faith won't work without it. It takes love to make faith work. Second, faith won't work without hope. The New English translation of Hebrews 11:1 says, "Faith gives substance to our hopes." You have to hope for something before your faith can give substance to it. So faith is also dependent on hope. HEBREWS 11:1 1 Now FAITH is the substance of things HOPED FOR, the evidence of things not seen. You see, if you don't hope for anything, your faith can't work because it has no goal or object to believe God for. Therefore, faith can't work without hope. Also, faith is dependent on love in order to work. That's why the Bible says that love is greater than either hope or faith. At a time like this when the purpose of valentine as being turned to a time of lus affairs, when the purpose of valentine as being abused, we only need to know whom God is and the God kind of love will be manifesting in your life. Show the especialy to the less privilege around for it is only through this that all men will we are his disciples when we have love for one another, dont show favoriticism and dont give birth to val baby. Love u all and Happy Valentine.

WHY DONT YOU MAKE THAT CHANGE?

WHY NOT CHANGE?
Have you ever met someone who wasn’t happy unless he or she was going through some kind of massive change? Perhaps there are a few individuals in this world who thrive on uncertainty, enjoy feeling insecure, and love to have their routines disrupted. But I think it would be safe to say that most people resist change every now and then, especially when it affects an idea, position, or practice that is near and dear to them.
Although people in leadership roles are often called upon to be agents of change, I have found that leaders resist change as much as followers do! As you might guess, that poses a big problem in this world of rapid transition and constant flux. As I said, Developing the Leader Within You, “Unchanged leaders equals unchanged organizations.”
My goal in this column is not to teach you how to enact change or tell you when you need to change. I merely want to help you understand what most people—including many leaders—think about change. Here are six key observations:
1. Most people change just enough to get away from their problems, not enough to solve them. They change just enough to escape; and as soon as they escape, they say, “I’m OK now—I don’t have to do anything else.” Unfortunately, this is like painting a rusty car. Sooner or later, the paint wears off, and the rust has only gotten worse.

2. Most people want to change their circumstances to improve their lives instead of changing themselves to improve their circumstances. Let’s say you came to me, as leaders often do, and said, give me some leadership ideas so I can change the people of my organization.” Well, I’m happy to offer leadership advice, but not so you can change someone else. If I give you advice, I’d like it to change you, because if I can change you, your organization will change, too. As I’m fond of saying, “People do what people see.”

3. Most people do the same thing the same way and expect different results. I see it happen all the time: People keep doing the same thing the same way, and yet they expect something to get better. When you want something you’ve never had, you have to do something you’ve never done.

4. Most people are willing to change, not because they see the light, but because they feel the heat. Read this carefully. As a leader, you better change when you see the light because if you wait and change when you feel the heat, it’s too late. Leaders go first. I know—sometimes we don’t want to go first, especially when it comes to change. But we have to—that’s what it means to lead.

5. Most people are unwilling to pay the immediate price of change; therefore, they do not change and pay the ultimate price. Change is uncomfortable. It’s unsettling. Sometimes, it’s downright painful. But in the long run, the alternative is often much, much worse.

6. Most people see change as a hurtful thing that must be done, instead of a helpful thing that should be done. Not all change is good. Some changes are based on bad ideas. Others are self-serving to the people who enact them. But as Max De Prmee aid, “We cannot become what we need to be by remaining what we are.”
Did you see yourself in any of these six observations? If so, decide today to change the way you think about change. Why is this so important? I stated the answer in Developing the Leader Within You: “When change is successful, you will look back at it and call it growth.”
“Life is an exciting business and most exciting when lived for others.”

“You may not be able to help everybody, but you can certainly help somebody.”

“I can do what you can’t do, and you can do what I can’t do. Together we can do great things.”

“No one ever achieves alone what he can do when partnering with others”

DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT

DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT: STAND OUT AND STEP UP YOUR PROFITS The first step in any sales process is to gain the attention of your prospective customer. Without doing this, there's no way to get your message across and no way to make a sale--unless it's by accident. In order to excel, you must differentiate yourself. And even after you gain a customer, it's imperative that you remain not only visible, but foremost in their mind. You want your customer to think of you first when it comes to buying your product or service. Differentiating yourself from your competitors is worthy of considerable and constant attention. It will save you monëy, time, aggravation and missed business. Is this easy? No, it's not. And that's why it's so uncommon. Standing out requires real thinking. It takes brainstorming. It requires knowing what your customer wants. It demands knowing who you are and what you stand for. It also requires knowing your competition. What Makes You Special? Every person--every company--has unique skills, talents and potential to bring to the marketplace. It's critical that you discover what these are. What special results can you deliver? How can you do it differently? What added value can or could you offer? Get your staff together and brainstorm this questiõn. Dig deep. Don't accept the easy answers. And keep digging. What Do Your Customers Really Want? You might think you know what your customers and potential customers need and you might even be right. But what do they actually WANT? Spend time talking with your clients. Do surveys. Make it easy for your customers to share their ideas, problems and dissatisfactions. Listen to them. The problems they bring up--ones they have in general and ones they have with you--are golden opportunities to help you craft your unique selling proposition and deliver exceptional service. How Can You Deliver Your Uniqueness in the Best Way? How can you do it faster or better? How can you make it easier to use your product or service? How can you make it less expensive? How can you make your product/service one-of-a-kind? How can you help your customer feel more special? How can you make your product feel exclusive? How can you be more responsive? What can you add to what you sell that would cost you little or no monëy but add real and perceived value? Explore other industries and think about ways you can implement strategies or services from other trades into YOUR trade. Perhaps one of the best questiõns to keep in the forefront of your mind is IWWCI (In What Ways Can I) increase the value of my product/service to my customers? I have an entire notebook devoted to just this questiõn. I'm constantly looking for ways to provide more value to our members. I sit down with it often to review my notes and add ideas. Doing things differently is worthy of your attention. And it's a process that is nevër complete. It should be constant and nevër- ending. It's also a lot of fun. It will keep your creative juices flowing. It will sharpen your thinking and increase your energy. And it will make you more profitable while giving greater value to your customers.
