"Believe In Your Own Skills and Know Who You Are In Both Mind And Soul And You Will Succeed"-Dr. Luciano Santini

Hello my friends and here we are once again dealing with a world where everyone is freaking out because of the voting going on and who will be our next president and on and on with the chaos all around us. I always say to people live each day with a smile and let those crazy things around roll off your shoulders and I say this only because you cannot change the world but you can sure make a change within yourself and who are at any time that you choose to do so.

It is difficult enough trying to make it in this world much less having to deal with those people close to you or those you have to work with on a daily basis. I always look for my mentors whether they are still walking this earth or not to guide my thought when my thought are all over the place. They bring me back to reality and to a sigh of relief.

Your job will never be any bigger than your imagination makes it.

Daniel Burnham, the turn-of-the-century architect and civic planner whose plan for the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair had an enormous influence on contemporary civic design, was quoted as saying, “Make no little plans.” He knew that to achieve great things we must have grand ideas. If you can imagine it, you can create it. And if you can create in your imagination the job that you would like to have, it is possible to create it in the real world. 

I find that so many people are always rushing to get to work or to the store or wherever they need to get to and once they arrive they do nothing but take their time doing what a little while ago was paramount--WHAT IS UP WITH THAT!!!!

I have no idea but what I can tell you is this that if you need to get somewhere and you are in such a hurry that you might hurt someone or yourself along the way then my friend you!! need to take a big breath and relax because at the end of the day you will realize that it was not that important 

Some people in this world think and believe that if they hurry something that it will get done faster and it might but the thing to think about is at what cost! You see people will try to make you think that you are wrong or that you do not understand certain things like policies or procedures in their world and so they will try to manipulate your mind and you as a person.

 If this ever happens to you then dig into what they are telling you that you are wrong about and then smile back at them because you will find that they are just people that have low self esteem and insecure.

people who try this on other people will eventually be seen for who they really are and well you can look at them with sad eyes and smile and let them know that you have always known who they are and what they tried to do but because you have a strong mind you will win the bullying fight and they will be crushed and then they will slowly crawl back into reality.

These type of people are every where perhaps in your own family. These people will only try to isolate you from who you really are that special and smart person whom they have known all along but you made them afraid and thus they will try to crush you and your dreams.

In many organizations they have these type of people who will try to keep you in a box as they say "Out of sight out of mind" meaning the longer they keep you away from the real action well then people will tend to forget what you have done whether great or small they eventually will forget.

Do More For People With Passion And Empathy and They Will Follow-Dr.Luciano Santini

In a world where people are loosing touch with reality, it now is becoming a world of lost children in a great big field of lies, manipulation and no leadership. I know that sometimes people do not want to hear the truth that is called reality. I also know that people are afraid of what is not known,but at the same time people can make that change if each individual decides to see what sometimes perhaps is not seen by the naked mind not just by the naked eye.

Start going the extra mile and opportunity will follow you.

Going the extra mile can give you insight and a good reputation, both of which attract opportunity. Many obvious opportunities are found in places no one else has bothered to venture. If you put in the extra effort to make a good project an even better one, or you get to know your equipment better than anyone else on your shift, you will see things others overlook and be in a position to make use of them. Leaders who need a job done think first of people they know who will do it well. If other people respect you for the quantity and the quality of your work, you will find yourself advancing past others who regard their jobs as drudgery. For all the extra service that you’ve rendered, you’ll find yourself more than amply compensated by opportunities others never grasp. 

I love this quote regarding leadership because sometimes I find that leaders fall short of leadership skills. I also find that when so called leaders believe they are leading because they sit or are given a position of leadership. These people really believe they are leaders because a position was given to them. I find that these people do not know how to measure their skills and strengths.

I know that there are some great leaders out there that are overshadowed by people who believe they are leaders only because they sit in a position of power and manipulation. I know for a fact and most of you who are true leaders out there will understand that this a true drama that goes on in the real world.

One leadership style that deal with in most cases where people lead by position of power seems to be the 

Bureaucratic Leadership
Bureaucratic leaders work “by the book”, ensuring that their staff follow procedures exactly. This is a very appropriate style for work involving serious safety risks (such as working with machinery, with toxic substances or at heights) or where large sums of money are involved (such as cash-handling).

In other situations, the inflexibility and high levels of control exerted can demoralize staff, and can diminish the organization's ability to react to changing external circumstances. This becomes an issue because in most cases there is no money involved but they seem to manage and use this style which in turn kills morality.

I believe more in the Democratic Leadership or Participative Leadership because though it is sometimes a slower process you can speed up by streamlining any process and yet have everyone involved that needs to be involved in the change.

Although a democratic leader will make the final decision, he or she invites other members of the team to contribute to the decision-making process. This not only increases job satisfaction by involving employees or team members in what’s going on, but it also helps to develop people’s skills. Employees and team members feel in control of their own destiny, and so are motivated to work hard by more than just a financial reward.

As participation takes time, this style can lead to things happening more slowly than an autocratic approach, but often the end result is better. It can be most suitable where team working is essential, and where quality is more important than speed to market or productivity.

This type of leaderships ties in really well with another style called  Servant Leadership

This term, coined by Robert Greenleaf in the 1970s, describes a leader who is often not formally recognized as such. When someone, at any level within an organization, leads simply by virtue of meeting the needs of his or her team, he or she is described as a “servant leader”.

In many ways, servant leadership is a form of democratic leadership, as the whole team tends to be involved in decision-making.

Supporters of the servant leadership model suggest it is an important way ahead in a world where values are increasingly important, and in which servant leaders achieve power on the basis of their values and ideals. Others believe that in competitive leadership situations, people practicing servant leadership can find themselves "left behind" by leaders using other leadership styles such as using their position power which will start contradictions and sometimes creates conflict among peers with different styles of leadership.

RUN CRAWL CLIMB SCREAM DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO TO REACH YOUR DREAMS!!!!-Luciano Santini

Hello and how are all my friends from around the globe? I was thinking this morning what was I going to write about and well honestly today I am only going to talk about motivation and engagement in general terms.

I always think about people in General and I also  watch people though out the week wondering what they are thinking in terms of motivation. I took one week to talk to many strangers and just asked them straight forward one question.

What are your dreams? 

I have to tell you that though this is a very simple question it is a very hard one to answer. The answer that I got from people in general were-

I'm working and I have children there is no more dreams.
I have no idea anymore.
No one has asked me about my dreams since I was a kid.
I am married I have to work.
The dreams I had are long gone.
I am working on them still after 40 years--Probably the best answer I got from over 150 strangers.

I do not know about you but I think if I had spoken to more people the answers would have been pretty much the same or similar to the ones above. I do not know but I am not a dream weaver nor a dream analyzer but I can say from these answers that most people get caught up on daily routines or in a job that they hate to begin with. I believe that we all start life with big dreams but somewhere down the line we are taught to conform and become like everyone else in the world around us. I want to you to notice that I said the world around us and I also want you to notice that at one time people said that the world was one giant square and if we went straight we would fall off.

I do now about you but I believe that most people believe that once they have children or grow up that their dreams are over and that is really really d\sad because it is those people that give up on themselves and end up getting stuck doing something they hate and end up being miserable and worst yet making others around them just as miserable. You know the old saying misery loves companionship" this is a true statement my friends.

The one who tries to get something for nothing generally winds up getting nothing for something.

Those who think they can get by in life without providing the same amount of value for value received will eventually find themselves working harder than ever to deceive others and receiving very little in return. Life has a funny way of evening the score. In the long run, you will get in the same measure you give. Spend your time on productive, positive efforts; give generously of your time and talents, and you will stand out from the great multitudes whose primary goal in life seems to be to get something for nothing.

You see my friends life is not an easy thing to maneuver through

it takes know how and it takes effort to get up each morning and go to work and most people do this every day and every day out the difference with those that are successful in both work and relationships I that those that tend not to conform with the daily routines nor do they buy that their they are stuck in a job they hate because these individuals will go farther and push harder then those that believe their dreams are over.

You have to push harder if you have children!

You have to push harder if you feel stuck in life!

You have to see further then your hand reach!

You have to fight for what you want!

You cannot conform to the world around you!

You have to see your life as it should be!

You need to go after those dreams you have in the back of your mind!

Say nay! to all those nay sayers and prove them wrong!!

Life is to precious to let it go by you each and every day!!!

"To Believe In Yourself is To Believe You Can Change The World When Everyone Else Is Looking Down on You"-Luciano Santini

 "To Believe In Yourself is To Believe You Can Change The World When Everyone Else Is Looking Down on You"-Luciano Santini

Hello to all my friends who continue to believe in my skill sets as a solutions provider. It is always a true pleasure to hear your comments and suggestions on what you want me to to write about and of course I love it !!!!

As most of you know that Napoleon Hill was a great writer and investigator in the art of wealth and well being. I began studying his books and writing many many years ago and have learned so much regarding human behavior of course studying human behavior from psychotherapists and other writers have also helped me understand why people do what they do and why they do not do what they should do.

The one one thing that has shown me what people are all about is listening,watching,speaking and most importantly the passion to to show empathy and compassion towards people no matter where they come from or who they are.

Those who create good fellowship among others will never be short of friends.

If you have a friend who goes out of his way to help cement friendships between others, consider yourself fortunate indeed. In today’s frantic, mobile, throwaway society, such individuals are exceedingly rare. With the demands placed upon us by our careers, our families, and the hectic pace of daily life, most of us have little time for ourselves, and even less for our friends. Yet we know that friendship freely given and gratefully received is one of life’s greatest gifts. 

I believe that people need to take some time out of their busy day each and every day sit back and see what the day gave them such joy,sorrow or challenges then take a look at each one of those and see what went wrong or what went right.

Did the challenge caused you to stop and think or did you just react to the situation? These are questions that we need to think about during our busy day.

I always talk about motivation and how one can self motivate if they simply ask themselves their why? 

Why do I do what I do? Do I have a passion for what I do?

The one key to realizing this is that motivation is only about exciting oneself. The rest of the deal is that you have to create urgency and goals to stay motivated. Sometimes people will get so excited that they have no goals and thus will fail reaching any goal because they did not have a plan in place to reach the goals intended.

Focus on the goal of course is also a big part of the achievement one wants, however one needs to be real careful on the number of goals set. While there are people who can focus on more than one goal my suggestion to all of you out there is to focus on one at a time.

Life is all about the legacy you want to leave behind after you are gone. We focus to much on what other people think and we fail to think for ourselves. We fail as a society today because we have allowed to conform to ideologies that do not work anymore. The past was awesome in different time areas, however times change constantly and until we all realize that time will never ever stop for anyone but continue moving forward only then will we be able to change the world.

"Be A Rebel Challenge The Status Quo Change Is Constant"-Luciano The Key Santini

Hello my friends and here we are  on another day of frustration among our society. I find it to n\be more frustrating among the younger generations due to old school way of thinking and the resistance to change.
I tell to all of you younger people out there go for it and challenge the status quo because I do and yes you will get your hands slapped and perhaps at time loose jobs but the question to always ask yourself is: Would it be worth to challenge my organization to make a change and the answer will always be YES if it is worth fighting for after all-Who are you if you do not fight for what you believe to be the right thing to do?

I love this quote;

“Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.”
― Rob Siltanen

 

I know that sometimes in life we will always face challenges and sometimes we need to make some vary hard choices as to whether to go forward and challenge. I know and I can tell you from experience and working with bosses that always want to stay conformed to the old way of thinking and resist to change basically will tell you they are all about change and yet their actions of course show otherwise because behind the scenes they resist change. So what do I do well I follow my mentors advise as follows;

 

 Napoleon Hill says;

The quality and quantity of service you render fixes your wages and determines what sort of experience you are getting.

The only constraints that you have on your income and advancement potential are those you place upon yourself. If you don’t like your position, or if you are unhappy with your salary, do something about it. What can you do to make yourself more valuable to your department or your company? What tasks have not been completed because no one has the time or the inclination to take care of them? Look around and identify things that need to be done. 

 

Don’t wait to be asked. If you make it a habit to seek out opportunities, to take on new tasks, you will increase your knowledge about the organization and become such a valued employee that your company can’t afford to lose you. 

I agree to try and become as valuable as you can to your organization however if they seem to under value your talents and suggestions for change then you will know what you need to do Yes!! challenge them because that is the only way that change will happen. Will it be scary absolutely it will! but change is constant and guess what change has to take place sometime in every organization and so someone will make the challenge at one point or another it might as well be you!!.

Johnny Cash quotes inspirational bad ass. “

“I wore black because I liked it. I still do, and wearing it still means something to me. It's still my symbol of rebellion -- against a stagnant status quo, against our hypocritical houses of God, against people whose minds are closed to others' ideas.”
― Johnny Cash
