Tell Them Loudly"Watch me succeed"-Luciano Santini

Good day everyone and how are all my friends doing? I read about Steve Jobs a while back and the creativity this man had in his mind was just incredible. I read article that people would write about him and some were pretty negative and I always wondered why. I found the reason was that those who either were very envious or were afraid of his creativity and mostly his competition. He believed in a great product that changes lives and he followed his dreams, but he would have never ever accomplished it if it had not been for his teams that assisted him create the products Apple is so well known for.

I believe that life is the same way because sometimes you will take risks and hope for the best and yet you will find resistance and the negativity all around and well my friends you have to be able to stand up and say hey " I can do this and just watch me do it and well just go for it despite the negativity"-Luciano Santini 

My friends if you want to accomplish anything in life or in business you just have to take some risks when people challenge you just have to smile and let them know that no matter what happens you make it in life and in business.

Leadership is not an easy task for even the most seasoned people. I find that the better you are as an individual in mind and soul your leadership will come through as long as you do not allow negativity to poison your mind. Let us face reality with a strong stand of mind and allow our minds to grow within ourselves. My friends when we allow others to enter our minds with negativity our minds become vulnerable to failure because we allow our minds to weaken. In business my friends if we allow our competition to takes us down in our minds then we are beaten before they do or say anything.

Technology is the future and both in life and in business one must be aware of this future. My friends take a look at your children and see how advanced they are with technology. We as individuals cannot allow ourselves to stay behind. Just to give you a look into what and how technology affects both your life and your business; There are over one billion users on Facebook and there is over 72 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every single minute. My friends think about this and how this could make your business boom or fail as well as your personal life.

There is a vast difference between failure and temporary defeat.

Napoleon Hill

There is no such thing as failure, unless it is accepted as such. Every defeat is temporary unless you give up and allow it to become permanent. In fact, temporary defeat often makes us stronger and more capable. Each time we try and fail, we learn something that helps prepare us for eventual success. Only in the classroom is there a single correct answer for every problem. If you try an approach that doesn’t work, try something else. When you view adversity as nothing more than a learning experience, your successes in life will far outnumber your failures.

The Most Intense Issues In Organizations Today-Leadership And Technology-Dr. Luciano Santini

Hello and good morning and well here I am giving a great speech to a church group from juvenile court whom seem to have had some major issues in life. I find that this is a time when a teen goes through literally hell trying to figure out who they are and where they are going. I believe that teens go through the stages of not listening to their parents.

What happens though is that the parents give up on their kids and well the result is they end up in a place where they will never forget and always remember and think about the time when their parents gave up to them. 

I have gone through some of these issues myself as a teen how ever I had a father who was really tough with me and my siblings to the point that if it happened to day my father would have ended up in jail. people have told me that I seem to share to much of my life and well I do! because guess what? You have to be realistic and give people something to think about that they can perhaps resonate with them.

I always give realistic goals depending where people are right now! at this very moment. Once people get to see where they are at that moment and truly realize where they are then and only then will they be able to see that change needs to take place. I have seen seminars and to many workshops to count where the information given is just not realistic and thus people fail.

Let us move over to business now. In business is the same thing when you think about it. You have owners who think they have all the answers and well the truth is they do not and then they fail. In business there are always issues that need to have immediate change but never takes place. There is always times of change constant change.

In business we have to constantly be innovating to allow the business to grow and blossom into what we want it to be. Innovation only comes from Leadership in the organization realizing that change is a constant and that innovation also can come from non-leaders at that the time and to be able to allow them to teach leadership as well.

Technology is probably the most intense issue in today's organizations. Most origination still trying to understand it and yet do not allow the one population to take off with it and teach it to those that have been around forever in the organization. We have a burst of savvy employee to day that could take any organization to the head of the class if leadership would but only allow them to go for it.

In both real life and in business one must know: 

Napoleon Hills

Know your own mind, and you will be as wise as the sages.

When you take charge of your mind, you take charge of your life. When you understand your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and desires, you can direct them to any end you choose. Wisdom comes from taking the time to study yourself, to know why you are the person you are. Taking charge of your mind is a thoughtful, reflective, solitary process. Only you can come to understand the complex inner workings of your own mind, and you must be willing to spend the time and effort that gaining such insight requires.

One last thing that I will give before I close:Management,Leaderships and Negotiation skills: Harvard Report

Many managers view negotiation as a tool to use outside the organization to deal with customers, suppliers, and creditors. By contrast, inside the organization, their thinking often is, “It’s my way or the highway.” According to conventional wisdom, managing people requires charisma, vision, and a commanding
manner—but not negotiation skills. Real leaders don’t need to negotiate. This is a common mis-perception about the nature of leadership, which can be defined as the ability to cause individuals to act willingly in desired ways for the benefit of a group. In fact, leadership almost always involves negotiation, and
good leaders are invariably effective negotiators.

Business,Life,Chaos and Individuals

Well here we are on another beautiful Saturday morning and yet heartbroken. These past few days have been really busy. What I mean by busy is really busy inside my head thinking about what to write and what to think and what to search for. We live in a world of Chaos, in a world where we are not 100% safe anywhere anymore. My heart goes out to all those people that died this past week in San Bernardino in such a brutal and senseless way.

 life is such a precious thing to me that I could never imagine anything like that happening close to me and yet it could happen to anyone and anywhere.

We are never prepared for something like this we can say that we are but the reality is we are not. In business it is the same thing. I have spoken and researched business owners regarding the failing businesses and not just in for profit companies but non profit organizations as well.

I have found that while most will prepare a great mission statement and a great vision statement and all it becomes is a plaque on the wall that is totally forgotten soon after it was distributed. I have asked many people to tell me their vision and mission statement and guess what! They can never ever recited for me unless they read it from the plaque. So what does this mean to me, it simply means you are totally disengaged with your company. Let us look at the bigger picture though and the question is why? the disengagement.

Well it is because the mission statement has been created by the top so called leaders and their Human Resource people who to begin with are way disengaged with staff and mid level management. I always find it hilarious when directives come down and are given to staff and mid level managers and their supervisors and expect them to roll out the directives with no direction whatsoever.

The issue is that when you pass on a directive it needs to come with instructions as if it was a bunch of pieces of wood that when stacked together it makes sense and a bench is created. 

Imagine a bunch of wood pieces different shapes thrown at you  with a simple ( Here it is make a perfect box) I am not saying that it cannot be made but it will take time to figure it out and it may not turn out perfect and perhaps it will look like a box but will it be the box the top designers pictured probably not!!! and why;There was never no direction given.

Today's business world most companies are facing leadership and skills gaps. They are loosing so much knowledge about their companies with all the people retiring. If corporations and organizations do not get the ball rolling and preparation of those they feel have the skills to take over all those positions what they will end up with  what I like to call overwhelmed employees and what happens next can and will be disastrous to the organization. What most organizations need to create for their employees is a more communication and diverse environment.

Another issue I see is that most leaders fail to lead people. Let me ask a question when you hire someone do they come to work for you or do they come to work for their own reasons? This is a question that most leaders fail to understand. With this thought in mind we need to realize that everyone is an individual and not everyone learns at the same speed nor do they work at the same speed and yet people are expected to do more with less faster and better. I have to tell you that this mentality needs to stop and leaders need to get a better understanding not of their staff but of the individuals who work for their organization large or small.

When leadership understand these concepts that I have spoken about great things happens because you can identify your leaders and begin to train them and prepare them for promotions they so much deserve because as a leader my job is to teach and prepare the next leader within my organization instead what I see so much of is if someone is smart and has the potential to become a great leader they are shut down by the so called leaders due to their own failures and due to envious minds and thus those great potentials leave the organization to become the leaders they are meant to be and this usually happens with the competition. 

Thank you for reading by posts and as always I love the comments and questions.
