Pushing myself to the limit!?
By · CommentsPushing myself…It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before… to test your limits… to break through barriers.
I always wanted to be the best I could be at whatever I did. I didn’t want to be the number one golfer in the world. I just wanted to be as good as I could be. I work hard, I push myself hard, and I probably even expect too much of myself.
Greg Norman
When it comes down to it, at the end of the day, I need more out of my life and I need to push myself harder. And if at the end of the day I don’t have it, then I don’t have it, but at least I’m going to put myself out there. If I fail, I’m going to fail terrifically. ~ Ali Larter

Lessons From Geese – courtesy of Saatchi and Saatchi
By · CommentsLESSONS FROM GEESE…
As each goose flaps its wings it creates an “uplift” for the birds that follow. By flying in a “V” formation, the whole flock adds 71% greater flying range than if each bird flew alone. Honk…
Lessons from geese No. 1:
People who share a common direction and sense of community can get where they are going quicker and easier because they are traveling on the thrust of one another.
When a goose falls out of formation, it suddenly feels the drag and resistance of flying alone. It quickly moves back into formation to take advantage of the lifting power of the bird in front of it.
Honk…
Lessons from geese No. 2:
If we have as much common sense as a goose, we stay in formation with those headed where we want to go. We are willing to accept their help and give our help to others.
When the lead goose tires, it rotates back into the formation and another goose flies to the point position.
Honk…
Lessons from geese No. 3:
It pays to take turns doing the hard tasks and sharing leadership. As with geese, people are interdependent on each others’ skills, capabilities, and unique arrangements of gifts, talents, or resources.
Geese flying in formation honk to encourage those up front to keep up their speed.
Honk…
Lessons from geese No. 4:
We need to make sure our honking is encouraging. In groups where there is encouragement, the production is much greater. The power of encouragement (to stand by one’s heart or core values and encourage the heart and core of others) is the quality of honking we seek.
When a goose gets sick, wounded, or shot down, two geese drop out of formation and follow it down to help protect it. They stay with it until it dies or is able to fly again. Then, they launch out with another formation or catch up with the flock.
Honk…
Lessons from geese No. 5:
If we have as much sense as geese, we will stand by each other in difficult times as well as when we are strong.

The Difference Between Failure And Success Is Doing…

Believe In YOURSELF – and that’s an ORDER!!!
