Learn How to Be Mentally Sound

  I want you to take a moment before we focus on your Sunday dose of living a rich, healthy lifestyle, and after reading this paragraph just simply embrace the following words:

  ”You are waiting in line to pay for your usual Starbucks Mocha Late. Your mind starts to ponder about how lovely it would be to take a much needed vacation. You would love to spend time with your loved one or family, that you so rarely devote enough time to because of work. You are working the hardest you ever have to earn money, and are simply unable to be there for loved ones as you would like to be. In the back of your mind your usual excuse is “I have to work so that I can pay the bills, and provide, but one day I’ll retire to a new lifestyle.” You are still waiting in the Starbucks line, and you begin to envision the warm beach of the vacation you so wish to take. It is theafternoon, and the sun is glowing as the delicious sea blown air enters your body. You take a moment to sigh as you embrace this beautiful moment. You know that tomorrow, all that is on the agenda is to swim, eat delicate food, and soak up the sun.
  Just at that moment your heart feels as if it has skipped a beat. It feels as if your chest is becoming tight,and your left side burns like ice. You drop to the floor as everything becomes fuzzy, and you see dozens a people gathering around you. The feeling isunlike anything you’ve felt before. Until it goes black.
  You wake upunknowing of where you are. Was it adream? No, you have just survived a transient ischemic attack (TIA), and this the doctor informs you, was a stroke. You are lucky to have had an ex-medic near by who knew just how to save your life until help arrived. Your life, and all that encompasses it, finally hits you. Finally, the hustle, bustle, and “no-time” for anything, but work, has caught up.”

  Now take a moment, and embrace this scenario because it happens to thousands of people every year. We live in a society, a place, where we can catch a taxi in under 4 seconds, and eat a meal without notice, in 3minutes. We are concerned with one thing, and one thing only …do it better than the next person. Through all of this we forget to take care of the most important thing, ourselves.
  If we do not take time to keep ourselves as I like to call it “mentally sound” then we are unable to perform in the way our lifestyle demands. Can you imagine how much easier it would beto wake up each morning if we took time to organize our nightly tasks in a way so that we were able to get at least eight hours of sleep. One may laugh at the thought of ever seeing eight hours of sleep, but we shouldn’t. This is the one and only time our bodies refuel itself. Our bodies literally repairs damaged done throughout the day, complete digestion for the meals eaten that day, create new cells to keep us going for tomorrow, and even reset our brains to “full.” If your Blackberry cellular phone had one bar of batterylife left, would you race to charge it or would you let it die, and tell it “Maybe I’ll charge you a little today, and little tomorrow.” No, you would not. In fact, I can imagine how many of us carry a phone charger compatible with our cars, laptops, and home adaptor. We fear the thought of losing life to our cell phone, and now is the time to start fearing losing the life to our bodies.
  You will never enjoy the money you earn without taking time for yourself to be mentally sound. Whether it is setting aside time to take a hot bath, meditating for as little as 5 minutes, working on a hobby car, making a cup of tea, reading a funny joke, going for a massage, or anything else that brings you peace of mind, you must do it. Being mentally sound will help you to embrace all that you have created, and it will fuel you to obtain any goal. Thank you for joining us.

Warmly,

Does your Company have a Vision/Mission Statement?

March 13th, 2009 Ricardo V No comments
    Creating an effective Vision and Mission Statement!

  • It is my firm belief that every company, big and small, should have a vision statement and mission statement. These two statements are just as important as your short and long term goals. Having a vision and mission statement will actually help you in creating your goals and building a stronger, healthier, and more profitable future.
    What’s the difference in a Vision vs Mission Statement?

  • Vision Statement
      To summarize, a vision statement is a passage of text which explains what your company hopes to become. This could be in relation to the community, in relation to the internet, or in relation to the world. A vision statement also serves the purpose of being a striving point towards your company’s future. Your company in effect is building towards your vision of yourselves. You need to keep your vision in view when creating goals to keep on track.
      Length of Vision Statements:

        Short Vision Statements have the benefit of being easily remembered. “I want my company to be the leading resource for Operating Systems in the entire world.” This would be an example of what a Microsoft or Mac type company could/would have for a short vision statement.
        Long Vision Statements are also beneficial in the sense that they are more detailed and can keep you on track. “I want my company to be the leading resource for Operating Systems in the entire world, while being cost efficient, paying fair wages, and being eco-friendly to the environment.” A Long Vision Statement would usually be a few paragraphs/pages but you get the general idea. Basically you take a short vision statement and extend the length of it with conditions/more visions.
  • Mission Statement
      A mission statement is an explanation of what your company exists to accomplish, what your company currently offers, and how it offers it. It alludes to the objectives and purpose of your company, and tries to continue working for that purpose. Here is a quick example of an idea to mapping out your mission statement. Think of law enforcement or the army, their mission is to protect and serve. Sometimes the army is given a mission to save civilians from a specific building and they will do everything in their power to accomplish that mission. I feel that a company should have something to that degree within their mission statement. A clear defined purpose and motive to an objective to accomplish for the company.

    Invest in your company’s Vision and Mission Statement

  •   As you can see my goals are not far fetched, or difficult to accomplish. They will challenge my current comfort zone, and require work on my part. The most important part is that those goals are all: attainable, measurable, meaningful, and time sensitive.

    Make Success Measurable

  • Make Success Measurable by Douglas K. Smith, is one of the most in depth books about setting goals in the market. He routinely mentions what he does to reach goals successfully. He focuses on the outcomes of his goals(staying positive), instead of the actions he needs to accomplish to reach those outcomes. “This is a how-to book, emphasizing out-comes as opposed to actions in setting goals. You’ll learn how to: Set goals that matter to customers, share-holders, and founders. Set non financial as well as financial goals and link them together. Understand and use outcome-based goals that support success while avoiding activity-based goals that produce failure. Select and use management disciplines needed to achieve your goals.”
