In my “Acting For Real” seminars, I discuss Man’s desires and strivings in life are first prompted by his feelings, emotions, and beliefs.

He has always responded more quickly whenever his emotions, and therefore his imagination, have been aroused to the level of passion.

His imagination has not only been the starting point, but the driving force that produces his outcomes. All religions, adventures, systems of education, discoveries in art and science, and all forms of sport and business, are expressed through some force of emotional action; read more »

A Work in Progress

You are a work in progress and will be until the day you die. That is the journey of life: Mining your Mind until the end. To work on yourself, you must be in constant communication with your mind

Through self-exploration, you will find the joy and excitement of constantly working on yourself to attain enlightenment.

You will need finer tools and instruments to reach this state of being. You will need a different approach.

Albert Einstein said, “Problems cannot be solved at the same level of awareness that created them.”

  Bop until you drop‏

When I became involved in the theory of BOP, it reminded me of my youth in the late fifties. Those were the days! There was this dance craze going on at the time called “The Be-Bop” or as my mother used to call it, “The Dirty Boogie.” My grandmother was worse; to her it was the devil’s music!…

Many people all over the word are in a state of panic right now because of the teetering economy.  Doom and gloom seems to be everywhere.   We are all on an economic journey.

How can you deal with all this stress?

First, keep in mind the wisdom found in the “Serenity Prayer.”

Grant me the wisdom to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

A worldwide economic crisis is definitely out of your control.  So dealing with the stress of uncertain economic times boils down to your attitude about the situation.  (How you deal with your actual money is a completely different subject.)

Virtually everything in life begins with attitude.  Attitude has a profound impact on the quality of your life.   It can make or break you. Your reactions to events that happen in your life are far more important than the actual events. You can not change the past or predict the future.   Challenges will continue to occur in your life. The only thing you have complete control over each and every day is your attitude.

Your attitude about yourself is the perfect place to start. Each of us is born with unlimited potential. Your self esteem is a function of the continuity between your beliefs & values and your actions.   Act with integrity.    Create a style.

Your lifestyle plan should include moving in a positive direction mentally, physically and spiritually.  Positive actions become habits with consistent repetition.  Strive to master yourself, your emotions and your mind set.  Form good habits and become their slave.

Take a few minutes each day to relax and reduce stress.  Establish exercises to work on.  Put at least one-hour aside each day to study. Always continue to learn.  Don’t procrastinate, just do it! (Nike).   Create a sense of the highest urgency. Organize your personal and professional life.

Surround yourself with positive, optimistic people because it creates the atmosphere you need to achieve. spend quality time with quality people because if you spend quality time with casual people you will wind up being the casualty.

You will get what you need by helping others get what they need. Effective communication with others is critical. Love and respect yourself and others every day. Teamwork and cooperation are essential. Encourage creativity within boundaries.

Stop condemning, complaining or criticizing.  Find out what interests others. Express appreciation for others and make them feel important. Be sincere and enthusiastic. Always be honest and true. Make the most of your talents and abilities. Keep developing and striving for excellence.

Gain a reputation of good character. Give from your heart and it will always come back to you ten fold. Give back to others in greater need.

Time is your most precious commodity. How you positively and constructively budget your time will have a great impact on your success. A daily calendar is a must. There are daily planners/organizers available that are developed specifically for your business.

Life can, at times, get a bit overwhelming. When it does, its okay to take a break and rest, but never quit. Go punch a pillow, scream, cry, pray, meditate or talk with someone who cares. After you rebound get back to it.

Almost all successful and happy people have experienced many painful failures. Use your faith to embrace and transform suffering by accepting its purifying value. Do not let it defeat you. Persist. Be courageous. Be determined. Always maintain a sense of humor. Take time to laugh and smile.

BE BOP!

LANGUAGE IS POWERFUL.

I think it’s the responsibility of every person to try to fulfill himself or herself to the fullest capacity possible.  A person can not do this if they are “verbally naked.”

A person must have an arsenal of vocabulary from which to work. While slang and lingo are appropriate in some circumstances, they will not put you in the same rapport in other circumstances.  We must be able to have flexibility in our vocabulary to meet our needs in a variety of situations.
