Luciano Santini on Finishing Your Life's Journey

Good morning my friends and has been a bit since I have blogged but here I ama again ready to start up and get this blog going YAYYYY!!!!

WOW motivation what is tat many people ask because tho theu t may think they know what it is they really have no idea how to find it.

So let me know if you would like to know how to find out who you are and how to find that motivation you need to get you going.

 "Life Is Not A Just A Phase We Go Through Life Is A Journey We Must Finish With A Smile"--Luciano Santini

Sometimes we will find ourselves in a hard situation and may feel that there is just no way out and that is ok because there is always a way out there is always a positive to every negative always! you just have to dig deep inside yourself to be able to see it. 

 

 The man who does his job precisely as he would do it if he owned the business may see the day when he will own that business or a better one.

The best-managed companies are those in which management creates opportunities for employees to own a piece of the business through various types of stock-ownership programs. Management has found that when individual employees are also owners, they are more loyal, more creative, and more cost-conscious.

 

 They also work harder and are more responsive to customers. If you have the opportunity to participate in employee stock programs, do so. If possible, extend the same opportunity to your employees. 

 

If such programs are not available to you, conduct yourself as though you were already an owner, and sooner or later you will be. It is inevitable that when you think like an owner, you will eventually become one. 

I love What Napoleon Hill states in this article becaue it is so true some people work and work and seem to get no where and then something happens as if magic comes into their lives they find themselves doing what they always wanted to do and accomplish. 

How about some Monster.com information on jobs:

This is not your father’s job market. Long gone are the company lifers from yesteryear who spent their entire careers in a single position within a single company. Today, we’re living in an age of job promiscuity, where regularly changing jobs is not just tolerated, but encouraged. 

 
 This shift is a fairly recent phenomenon that can be traced back to the dot-com rise and fall of the late 1990s. Regardless of the reasons for the shift, the current employment climate requires job seekers to be more agile. 

I believe you understand what this means and if not allow me to break it down for you; You see back in the day when your father was working at a factory they would work there forever until retiring and then sit back and live a retirees life if they saved and invested wisely. That my friends is not the case any more at all. People are lucky if they stay at a job for more then 2 or 3 years at one place specially if there is no retirement or benefits.

Ok my friends let me know and write me your comments uyour thoughts on this article. 

Luciano Santini on Goals Get It Done!!!

Good morning my friends. How do we get out and truly enjoy life? I will give you a few things you can do each day specially on weekends.

 October 14, 2012

Capricorn (12/22-1/19)

Just who's in charge of your life right now? Take a look at your calendar today, and you might notice a few too many upcoming events that you aren't really looking forward to. If you've been pressured into doing something you don't want to do, then it's time to start flexing your muscles. 

Initiate plans of your own, and start making sure that the things you do are the things you want to do! You cannot be everything to everyone, so fulfill your current commitments and then commit to yourself.

Step 1) Take a short walk around the block not only is this a healthy way for the heart but you can breath fresh air.

Step 2) Go to the park and enjoy the plants and flowers that you may encounter on the way.

Step 3) Take sometime to enjoy your significant other and your children if you have any. These are just a few to start your new day and perhaps a new perspective if you decide to take on these steps and turn them into daily habits or at least use them on weekends.

Here I am on the radio speaking about creating habits check it out and let me know what you think.

Try those steps and see what it can do for you just try it.

Lets talk about what it means to reach a goal that you have always wanted to accomplish but have been unable to do so and why have you not been able to do so. You see sometimes we have those voice sin the back of your minds that we keep on hearing and the worse part is that we sometimes let those voice take over our minds and we listen to them.

We need to take control of those voices because they will take over if you allow them to do so. I always say that if you listen to them and not able to control those ugly monsters then you will suffer as an individual.

"A Goal Is Something That The Mind Believes And Prepares A Plan

To Accomplish It"--Luciano Santini

 

In business it is almost the same. As owners we do not take over our thoughts and we are unsure of the next move that we need to make and we do not make it because we listen to the voices of fear. I call them the voices of fear because when you listen to them they will take over and you will make mistakes.

How do you turn your fears in something that you can use to your advantage and give your customers what they want. You can start by looking at the fear for what it really is nothing  more than an obstacle that can perhaps you can change direction and go around it and start looking at it as more of a directional object and use it,

Find your strengths. As a small business owner, find out what you really enjoy as it relates to your dreams and goals.When you figure this out for your business you will find that it will not only help you the owner but your staff and your customers will keep coming back to you.

Luciano Santini On Business and Life And Our Youth

Well hello my friends I almost forgot to blog MMMMM where is my mind lately. Well let just say that I have been really busy finishing up some translations and getting ready to do a bilingual seminar for the youth.

 I always look forward to doing these seminars because I really try to reach our youth, Many people are always saying how we are loosing our youth to the world and chaos of today and guess what!! I agree!!! Yes I do!!!

Meet my beautiful son he is eleven years old and yet he has a mind of an adult now do not get me wrong he is still a kid of course and he does all the things eleven year old kids do however he is an inspiration to me because sometimes out comes some things that I have only heard from adult conversations,now granted I take him to my meetings and seminars and he helps me out with all the computer set ups and projectors. 

He is good at it yes I taught him those things and yes he gets paid for doing a great job. I guess he is learning how to be responsible for what he does and for what he learns.

This is a testimonial from the most recent youth and parenting seminar for the a local school district.

 

He does great in school top of his class but the amazing thing about him is that he questions life. Really think about that how many kids and adults ever questions life. This important because most people ever do and when you do not question life then that means that you are comfortable and thus for will never ever progress forward. 

He has asked me about life in general and he has asked me about the future and though I may not have the answer which I do not but what I do tell him is we may not know the future there are ways on how to prepare for it and not be left behind specially in technology.

Lets talk a little about business owners. When do you id you are one question your customer service really be honest not with me but with yourself and your customers. Do you give your clients the best service you possibly can. Do you talk to them and ask them how your employees treat them? I'm just saying really my friends lets be real to a real world.

Some tips on how to give the best you can to your clients.

Ask yourself some of these questions;

 What outcomes (results, not activities) are to be achieved by this improvement initiative? How will their attainment be measured?

1. Have you identified which of the organization's products and services are most critical in carrying out its mission? If yes, what are the 10 most vital? If not, what method will you use for identifying and prioritizing them to create a strategic foundation for this initiative?
2. What specific numerical objectives and due dates have been established for improving priority outcomes, products and services? Are they being met?
3. Improvement initiatives are often aimed at general problem-solving and process management. As Drucker, Lawton, Deming and others have written, it is possible to solve internal problems and improve efficiency while failing to (1) meet customer needs or (2) function as an effective enterprise. Is the initiative intended to measurably increase both customer and employee satisfaction? By how much?
4. What is currently given higher organizational priority than customer satisfaction? 

Something To Think About

Something to think about when you wonder what the difference is between failure or success. 

 

Life,Business And Our Children Luciano The Key Santini

Good morning to all my friends. How are we doing on this beautiful morning? Today is a special day. It will be my son's birthday and we are preparing for his little friends to come over and enjoy a day of fun.

Here I am on my show that comes on every Saturday morning at 10:30 am for a half hour. I mostly talk about motivation because it seems that in these economical times people need to hear some hope. I know that when we feel down on our selves, for what ever reason, we need to hear some words of hope. I believe my show gives that to the world.

We live in a chaotic world do we not? Of course we do; our daily routine is nothing more then a variation of daily chaos. I'm not saying that life is not wonderful, because it truly is. What I am saying to you is that we need to stop and look for the beauty each day of our lives and feel it, enjoy it at every moment that we live.

Remember that we all have something special; you have something unique that no one else has but you. You need to learn what that is and be able to share it with the world. If we can learn to share our thoughts and our unique specialties, the world will surely be a very special place for each of us.

As a Business Coach there is so much to teach business owners, but the problem is simply that every owner feels they know everything about their business. What is the truth? The truth is that they do not. I may know lots of things but I never claim that I know everything because I am always learning something new at every moment in my life.

Life Coaching

This reminds me of a story I read a few days ago;

In 1972, Stanford psychologist Walter Mischel concocted an ingenious experiment involving young children and a bag of marshmallows. He put a marshmallow on the table and told each child that if he (or she) could wait 15 minutes to eat it, they would get a second one as a reward.

Two-thirds of the kids flunked miserably. Some caved in at once; videotapes show others struggling to discipline themselves - some even banging their little heads on the table.

But the surprising results of the study came years later. Researchers followed up on the children to see how their lives progressed. Turns out the kids who exercised forbearance rather than eating the marshmallows at once had SAT scores 210 points higher. They were also more likely to finish college, enjoyed significantly higher incomes, were far less likely to go to jail and suffered fewer drug and alcohol problems.

What does this mean? It means we should love our kids. Our kids should have a good understanding that they need to treat other as they would like to be treated with respect and dignity.But if we really want them to succeed in life, we should also teach them the benefits of working hard and staying focused on their goals and their dreams..

Education takes time and persistence. Professional attainments require concentrated effort. Saving and investing - instead of spending - takes discipline. Successful parenting means sacrifice and commitment.

The world stands aside and makes room for the person who knows where he is going and is on his way.

When you have a vision for what you wish to achieve in your life, not only will others stand aside and let you pass, but they will join you in your quest as well. They will instinctively recognize your enthusiasm and zest for living. 

When you speak of your passion in life, your definite major goal, they will see the intensity of your desire, and they will respond with encouragement and assistance or they will stand aside. It will be apparent to all who know you that you will succeed. 

I read this about ten times because it has a such a deep meaning to me and because it is so true. go ahead a read it a few times for yourself my friends.

Living To Your Potential Luciano The Key Santini

Good morning and wow what a beautiful Saturday. My friends who read my posts but do not join my blog LOL. It is ok because I kow you read it  haha. All kidding aside thank you for reading my posts. I want to tell you that I am greatful each and every day for all my clients and my friends and my family. 

You the cien is who is important in any business journey and should be treated that way all the time, however I know for a fact you are and you have every right to go somewhere else yes you do. Lets take a look at todays Horoscope though you might not be intrested in Capricorns but hey some might be right:

September 22, 2012

Capricorn (12/22-1/19)

You've been thinking that a conversation with a difficult person won't go well -- but if you have that talk today, you will be pleasantly surprised by the results. This person is totally ready to talk to you, and ready to work with you to make things better. A lot of positive collaboration is possible today, especially if you reach out and show that you are willing to do what it takes to make progress. The situation will only improve if you persevere. So keep talking -- and keep going! 

I like putting up Horoscopes because it teaches us some lessons if we are willing to learn more about ourselves and to be honest there is a short lesson every day. I beleive that helping people I mean really showing a genuine smile and teaching some genuine techniques in both business and life can really propel the individual to the next level.

"Living Life Is Not About Money But About Really Caring About Another Human Being And Teaching Them How To Live To Their Potential"-Luciano Santini

I have found out that sometime you simply have to go out and ask for help whether with your life as a person or your business and that is ok sometimes we need to that and sometimes we do not and we end up loosing more then just our businesses we end up loosing ourselves to the chaos of the world and find ourselves lost. I believe that people are good and they mean well though sometimes people do not really understand human nature and tend to go on the deep end.

I am not talking about certain types I mean generally people do not understand people and the ones who do really do become successful why? Well simply because they are able to see the needs of their clients and help them. That is it!!! simple right ! actually wrong!! because that is easier said then done and even harder to teach your staff members that they need to understand their customers.

I find myself teching tecniques to companies both large and small and guess what they all have the same issue ( Not understanding clients) Their needs must be met and you the owner must know how to accomplpish that and if you do not they will go elsewhere to have that need met.

I find myself learning something new each time a I give a seminar to a company on customer service. I really enjoy this because as a trainer you learn so much if you keep an open mind. People will always disagree and that is ok. Life is far to short to try to please everyone,however you get paid for giving or offering a service or a product so do your best to fulfill that need to your clients.

 

 

It’s mighty easy to justify dishonesty if you make your living from it.

The subconscious mind makes no moral judgments. If you tell yourself something over and over, your subconscious mind will eventually accept even the most blatant lie as fact. Those whose lives and careers have been destroyed by dishonest behavior began the process of self-destruction when they convinced themselves that one slight infraction of the rules wouldn’t matter. 

 

When you sell yourself on an idea, make sure the idea is positive, beneficial to you, and harmless to others. Just as negative thoughts and deeds return to their originator, so do positive ones. When you practice honest, ethical behavior, you set in motion a force for good that will return to you many times over.

 

Live life now Luciano ( The Key) Santini

Good morning my friends on this beautiful Saturday; To all my Capricorn friends

September 15, 2012

Capricorn (12/22-1/19)

This is a great day for you and your people to plan the details of upcoming events or parties! Have everyone get out their calendars and search for overlapping free dates. It will be delightfully easy to get everyone together at the same time in the same place. 

While you're on this roll, you might want to consider making this thing an annual or monthly event. You can't get enough of the people who make you feel good about who you are and where you're going. 

"We Live And Then We Die That Is Life It Is What We Do While We Are Alive In Between Life And Death That Will Count --Luciano The Key Santini

Live life now !! Live as only you know how full of vigor and happiness because you have that right to do so ! we all do!! So do it my friends just live life every day and take in every moment each day and your life will change for the better.

Business!!! We all want to be successful but what cost. I want you to really think about this because sometimes we do not realize what we are doing to ourselves and our families when we are so busy trying to reach something that perhaps is impossible in our outside world.

I want you to notice that I stated in our outside world and never mentioned our minds why?? I never stated our minds because we all have the potential to accomplish any business desire we may have and any goal that we want to reach we do.

As a business coach I try to teach owners to see where they are and where they want to be and then start a plan on how to get there. Easier said then done believe me because what happens when you start planning more issues are uncovered and OH BOY!!! it becomes a mess and that is OK it can be fixed it will take a little longer.

Lack of information is the main cause why people fail in life and in business and in accomplishing goals and dreams. Yes it takes desire and takes planning but most of all it takes knowing what you want and where you want to get.

Now I know there are many other issues that need to be looked at closely so one can reach a level of business success. Focus is a big one it really is one has to be focus on life and family first because if you do not focus on family if you have especially if kids are involved one needs to make sure they understand that there will be lots of long nights and missed dinners and perhaps some soccer or baseball games missed that will be part of the process.

 I believe that if there is an understanding though they may not get it at the very least get it out there and have them listen to you. There seems to be a big misconception that people can multi-tasking and I'm here to tell you that we are not made for that maybe and perhaps chewing gum and walking  only because we are so used to doing that since we we children and it takes no real talent.
