Dews Of Quietness And The Beauty Of Peace
October 31, 2009
This is a little different from what I normally post yet I feel compelled to share this with you. I trust you will find this refreshing and rejuvenating.
I was catching up with a friend last night and he like so many is trying to stay afloat in this fast-pace, challenging world. He mentioned something that brought my mind to a song I like to share with you.
He said he feels a quietness within that he has not felt before.
A sense of refreshing gratitude swept through me and I know how blessed he is to have found quietness in these times. He has mastered the art of managing stress.
I have shared a few tips on how to manage the daily stress and strain of work, relationships and family. I sincerely hope that you will find these tips on meditation and contemplation to be helpful in bringing you to a place of quietness and peace.
And when the inner is still, there is the calmness to remain "cool" and grounded and you can make use of the productivity tools to help you make sense of and organize the daily chaos of life.

May you too find the beauty of peace through the dews of quietness.
And may you cherish the coolness of His balm.
Accountability With Multiple Collaborative Third-Mind Views?
October 25, 2009
What happens when people of like minds and common goals come together and share tips on how they can achieve their goals?
What happens when they do that on a regular basis and in a structured manner within an environment of collaboration, respecting each other's views?
Add to that the opportunity to make public your own specific goal for the week so you can hold yourself accountable.
You have a powerhouse of resource and a strong support structure – it is commonly referred to as a masterminding group.
What is masterminding? In Napoleon Hill's book "Think and Grow Rich" the concept of masterminding (in Chapter 10) was outlined as the secret of success for many outstanding financial achievers, business entrepreneurs and academicians alike.
It is when people of like minds come together and focus on achieving a predetermined goal set by the group. Each person contributes his knowledge and expertise and are committed to the group; is willing to support and to ask for support.
"No two minds ever come together without thereby creating a third, invisible intangible force, which may be likened to a third mind." It is this collective synergy that will help individual aspires higher and achieve more.
It is natural to think this this is only for the 7-figure income entrepreneurs who have made it and are hanging out together. But this is not so. Quite the contrary, masterminding is a tool that will help each one of us get to the next level of our journey. We do not wait to be successful before we tap into this powerhouse but we want to tap into the collective resource now so we can be successful faster.
Every financially successful businesses or individuals work with other people and to a large extent their relationship inside this group of masterminding partners is the factor that made the difference for them to overcome the obstacles that they faced in their lives.
A mastermind group can be formed for any purpose, it is not limited to entrepreneurs discussing business strategies. The idea is to have a space for the group to advance a cause that is of common interests and mutual appeal to the partners of the mastermind.
The best time to start masterminding is when you have made a commitment and are highly motivated to think and play big and to be serious about what you want to achieve. Because your mastermind partners will be there to "challenge" you with setting weekly goals and taking actions. It is a place that makes things happen; not your cosy get-together-catch-up party.
If you are wondering how a mastermind is conducted or how it can help you, here's a free report for you. Click to download A Step-By-Step Masterminding Report.
