Hello and good afternoon everyone a little late but hey better late then never right so it said hahahahahahahaha.
Well the reason why is because I went and entered a singing contest at a local casino the Chumash in Santa Ynez CA and well we will know if I move on to the next round by tomorrow morning. So that is the reason why I am somewhat late in writing my blog but I love all of you who follow me and read my postings and have inspired me to keep going on my journey to change peoples perspective in life,business and their potential discovery.

I believe the below wisdom will stand the test of time yes I do believe it will.
The habitual procrastinator is always an expert creator of alibis.
If you are so inclined, you can always find dozens of reasons why something can’t or shouldn’t be done — and precious few why it should or could. It is far easier to rationalize that it’s too difficult, too expensive, or too time-consuming than to accept the idea that if we are willing to work hard enough, smart enough, and long enough we can accomplish anything. Instead of making a commitment, we make up an alibi. If you find that you frequently invent excuses for why you didn’t do something or have a million reasons why something didn’t work out as planned, it’s time for a reality check. Stop explaining and start doing!

“A core characteristic of
successful psychotherapy is the patient’s assimilation of the fact that
he or she is a member of the human race, somewhat ordinary and somewhat
special, but not categorically inferior or marginal.” Nancy McWilliams
Live-On-Less Happiness Advantage. — Life
is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly,
laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you
didn’t do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away
from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore.
Dream. Discover. — Mark Twain.
All these quotes are part of who I am and have created the deep intention of change within me as they can in each of us. There will be a time or a moment in each of our lives when we say enough is enough and the change will happen but you as the individual will need to be prepared for the change.

Tips for effective listening
If your goal is to fully understand and connect with
the other person, listening effectively will often come naturally. If
it doesn’t, you can remember the following tips. The more you practice
them, the more satisfying and rewarding your interactions with others
will become.
- Focus fully on the speaker, his or her body language, and other nonverbal cues. If you’re daydreaming, checking text messages, or doodling, you’re almost certain to miss nonverbal cues in the conversation. If you find it hard to concentrate on some speakers, try repeating their words over in your head—it’ll reinforce their message and help you stay focused.
- Avoid interrupting or trying to redirect the conversation to your concerns, by saying something like, “If you think that’s bad, let me tell you what happened to me.” Listening is not the same as waiting for your turn to talk. You can’t concentrate on what someone’s saying if you’re forming what you’re going to say next. Often, the speaker can read your facial expressions and know that your mind’s elsewhere.
- Avoid seeming judgmental. In order to communicate effectively with someone, you don’t have to like them or agree with their ideas, values, or opinions. However, you do need to set aside your judgment and withhold blame and criticism in order to fully understand a person. The most difficult communication, when successfully executed, can lead to the most unlikely and profound connection with someone.
- Show your interest in what’s being said. Nod occasionally, smile at the person, and make sure your posture is open and inviting. Encourage the speaker to continue with small verbal comments like “yes” or “uh huh.”
