A Letter To The Lost..

      Right now you are on a road in life, there is always a road being traveled. Now that might be a dirt road, a gravel road, maybe it is a road in the country or a road in a big city. Maybe that road is blacktop, a highway or a county road. Maybe that road is 4 lanes or 2 lanes. Whatever it may be, you are on a road. Where are you going? What does the horizon look like? What is behind you? What surrounds you? Do you notice anything along your path?

    Imagine you find a bowl along the path. How big is the bowl? What is the bowl bade of? How full is it? Do you keep this bowl or do you drop it and leave it? When you see the bowl, how do you feel?

    You walk more on this road, and notice a key hanging off a tree or a sign. What kind of key is it? What is it made of? How much does it weigh? Is it small, is it large? How connected do you feel to this key? As you progress on this road, do you decide to keep it or do you decide to leave it alone?

    You now reach a fork in the road, to the right is the same path you've been on. But to the left, is a path you have yet to go down. Which way do you go? Which path do you choose to follow? The right or the left?

    Whichever path chosen above, leads you to a house. This house is surrounded by a fence, how does this fence look? What material is it made of? What about the outside of the house? What does it look like? How many stories is it? Is it a big house or a small house?

    Go to the door, is it unlocked? Is it locked? Did you keep that key from earlier? Go inside, what does it look like inside? Does the outside reflect what the inside looks like? Or is the inside completely different? What is the atmosphere like inside? Is it full inside? Or is it void of furniture?

    Leave the house now, and go back to the road. Do you go back the way you came? Or do you decide to go on, into the unknown?

    You may be asking me what all this has to do with? You may even be confused at this point. Let me explain:

The road symbolizes the life you have lived up until now.
The bowl is your feelings about money.
The key is your feelings on success.
The fence is how you set the boundaries in your life.
The outside of the house is how you present yourself onto others.
The inside of the house is your real (true) self.
The road is how far you can go into the future(life).

    How did you fare? Is there anything you wish to change? Are you happy with your results? This all may not make sense at first glance. If not, I urge you to go back and re-read it. Really think about your decisions. Life is all about decisions. You choose your own destiny, your own path is carved by each and every choice you make in your life. You choose your road, you choose how much you want to fill your bowl up, weather you want the key or not, how you fence yourself off, how you present yourself to others, you choose how far you can go in life. The only thing we cannot change, is who we are. Our (true) self. We can only carve around that. We make choices based off who we are.

    What choices have you made thus far in your life? Are you happy with them? Why or why not? Why did you make those choices? Were they your choices? Or did someone else influence them? You see, life is all about the decisions we make. The choices we choose to pursue. What road are you traveling right now? If you don't like it, CHANGE IT. You have the power within you to change every single thing in your life. From the people who occupy your time, to your happiness. Follow your primal instincts. Take what you want from life. The job, TAKE IT. The girl, TAKE IT. The success, TAKE IT. Do not let anyone or anything stand in your path, bust through the walls, jump over the hurdles and continue down that road to success..

Stay positive, and keep it real.

The Important Role of Time Management.

    You will hear me repeat this phrase over and over again, "86,400 seconds is all we get per day." Because, that is the cold hard truth we get 24 hours per day to manifest our dreams into reality. The most successful people have mastered this art. The art that is time management. Those such as Elliott Hulse, Tony Robbins, Oprah, and others alike, have all mastered the art of time management. You see, managing time is the hardest but most resourceful thing to creating your image and business. You can go far as back as to say those such as Vincent Van Gough, and Nostradamus to see just how well time management can work in your favor.

    All great artists, historians and musicians alike use time management on their side. All of the successful people know that there is a fine line that distinguishes between work and pleasure. You have to manage your time so that you can get the best of both worlds. Not only will you get more work productivity accomplished, you will have more time to relax and recharge. Ask any person who has gotten success, and they will tell you the easiest way to become successful is to manage your time spent doing things. Cut your time down. Stop and take a 15 minute break if it seems that your task is becoming so daunting that you are dragging ass on it. Go for a walk to recharge your batteries, get some sunlight. Meditate, or practice yoga. Make sure to have yourself a good solid workout routine. Sleep regularly, weather or not 8 hours is on the agenda matters not, Make sure you keep a sleep schedule that is coherent to your goals.

    You make life work around you, not the other way around. If you have work, school, the gym, a family, you make it all work together. You find a way to incorporate as much as you can into as little time as possible. Find a shorter, but more effective workout to do at the gym. Choose to get more done at work in a shorter time, so that you can spend the down time working on yourself. If your goals is to work from home, and manage your own business. Start now, and get your presence known. What you want to do, will determine your next moves. Whatever your niche, find all forums on that subject. Join them, begin integrating yourself into the community. Build your social status, build your name. Grow your business around that. Become a part of the community you wish to thrive in, and your following will grow before your business even begins to take off.

    "Stay committed to your decisions, but stay flexible in your approach."- Tony Robbins.
    
     Tony said it best, be committed but flexible. Flexibility is the ultimate tool in an arsenal when building yourself and your brand. Life will happen, and things will arise. You must be able to adapt to those things, and allow life to become your tool. You must allow life, to be subservient to you. You control life, and you control time. In the end, you will master anything you set your mind after. Go out, become the next Van Gough, the next Bach, the next Kobe Bryant, Kurt Warner, Adrian Peterson, Stone Cold Steve Austin, the next Brad Pitt, the next Tony Robbins. Go out, manage your time correctly. And you will gain everything you have ever wanted. I will explain more in detail on time management in my next book I am working on. Look for it in the next couple of weeks.
Until tomorrow,
Corey.
