Wait a Minute Here

I thought I might get some of you to take a second look. Let me explain.

Stressed out people are not productive People

There are many ways to get stressed out. I will just address one or two here, as they pertain to this topic. The heart of any attempt to get more done and be more productive lies in you investing time in planning, preparing and getting organized prior to expending any energy. When you add all of this preplanning activity up, it sounds suspiciously like thinking, doesn’t? So what is the catch?

Have you ever had a large task looming ahead of you? You know it’s coming, you dread it and you stress out about it. That is the kind of thinking that slows you down, makes you ineffective and negatively impacts your productivity. It is also the kind of thinking that separates the people who have a plan from those that do not. The planning process starts a long time before this dreaded large task is due. By putting your faith in your planning process, you can avoid this paralyzing fear that turns all of us into walking zombies.

The Bungee Cord Will Not Break, Trust Me

I’m not sure what posses people to jump off a bridge and plunge hundreds of feet and do this on the basis that someone told them that the cord that stops them from splattering into the cement will not break. That’s trust. That is the kind of faith and trust you have to have in the systems and policies you have put into place to operate by. When you have that kind of faith and trust, then you will not be in a position to fear large tasks looming in front t of you because you will have prepared yourself for their arrival and be well ahead of the curve.

I’m using a large task only as an example here. It could be any stress-or; a meeting, an appointment with a new client, a deadline for submitting a report, anything that causes you to think about it and then basically do nothing concrete about it.

Thinking About Something And Then Doing Nothing About It Is Worse Than Not Thinking At All

At least ignorance is bliss. Sometimes I almost admire the people who seem to be able to just drift through life without getting wound up or worked up about things, the way I seem to do. I’m not sure if being “On” all the time is the best way to go. I did mention that I admire them sometimes, didn’t I? (more…)

These are some of the designs that i love there were a lot of them but can’t put all here.

I just got back from the New York fashion week on Sunday the 20th of September,my system is so disorganized can’t eat and can’t sleep at the normal time well what do i expect from going to a different part of the world with a 5 hours time difference. I was restless and my brain refuse to stay quiet then i started thinking.I gave it a serious thinking actually not that it was really hard to figure out that some people should stay the hell out of fashion designing there are so many things one can do in the fashion industry without being a designer. Most times i don’t write not because i don’t have what to write but if i have to write it must really be what i feel; recently i tried to be diplomatic not hurting anyone’s feelings i guess am really grown up now because that what grown ups do.I hate people who want the best things in life for free i honestly can’t understand it,does it make sense to you? I thought they say that there are no free lunch anywhere,in as much as i like helping people in need am not running a charitable organization my point being that if i decide to start one it will be a motherless babies home. There are a whole lot of kids out there who needs to be taken care of and i know that it will definitely not be a photographic charity home or studio that i will set up. I am actually sick and tired of all these people who don’t appreciate talent when they see one, as much as i love Nigeria i will gladly leave if the opportunity comes knocking again oh yes i mean that. I used to think that people here have matured in every aspect of their lives but they drive big cars and live in big houses just to show off. I am sick and tired of people coming late to everything don’t you guys have clocks,watches,phones and every other thing that have time attached to it. I am sick and tired of people who thinks that photography is all about buying a camera and clicking it please there are a whole lot to it, photography is an art.I am leaving again for a couples’ retreat in Cannes South of France oh! how i wish it was during the film festival would have been a blast. Guys i need your honest opinion do you think that i have what it takes to be a good photographer? Let me try to catch some sleep.

Are you short-changing yourself? Do you hold back on how big you let yourself dream? Is it time for you to super-size your goals and dreams? You know the adage-life gives us what you ask of it? It’s really true. Most people I know are timid about really “going” for it and have a lot of reasons and excuses as to why they can’t have what they want, even those of us who feel like we are “big thinkers” could turn up the volume of our desires and aim higher and as a result create stunning successes that benefit not only ourselves and our business but truly make the world a better place. I’m curious; if you could tell me right now, what your current big goals and dreams are. Could you describe them to me in glowing, vivid detail? Don’t be shy! Do you believe in yourself and the power of your dreams? Let me share a story with you. Recently I met Sean Stephenson, author of “Get Off Your But” and I can honestly say, I am forever changed. Sean has an interesting, compelling and inspirational life story. Sean was born with a bone disease which stunted his growth and has kept him wheelchair bound. While he may only measure 3 feet tall, Sean’s spirit, big heart, and optimistic “can-do” outlook on life is incredible and off the charts inspirational. Sean’s list of accomplishments is a mile long.. In our short time together I learned a lot via Sean’s formula which is heart’s desires + the mind’s focus, and pure intention = manifest miracles.

Sean hasn’t let physical limitations crush his dreams. He’s living testimony to-if he can do it, so can we! To his credit, Sean is a licensed psychotherapist, motivational and inspirational speaker who trains and facilitates groups internationally. When I met Sean, he’d just returned from Malaysia where he spent time with Virgin’s CEO, Richard Branson. You can learn more about Sean by visiting his site, reading his new book “Get Off Your But” (The title is a very clever and effective play on words) and watching his new show on A&E “The 3 Foot Giant”, which is slated to premier in fall of 2009.

What dreams of yours are limp, lifeless and need a shot of new life and energy? If you have the thought, and you have the desire-then honor your dream and take action on it today. As I learned from Sean, just get off your “but” (But… I’m too old, But… I’m not… But…) drop the excuses and claim what you want, AND take avid, inspired action. Dream it, design it and then go do it!
