Defining World Class

Image
What does it mean to be world class.  I was having this discussion with a colleague at work after reading Robin Sharma's work. World-class embodies inner mastery and outward excellence.  World Class radiates  positive energy ,  calm , and   confidence , moving through life with a deep sense of  purpose  and  presence . Their self-awareness fuels  their actions aligning  with a clear, authentic   "why".  World Class are the" 1% of the 1% . They do not dwell in anger.  Their position is No Worries !  World Class cultivates a mindset of resilience, gratitude, and growth.  They meet   fear with courage.  Feeding the courage Wolf and starving the the Fear Wolf.  They seek out the hard and difficult.  World Class is  of the mindset of viewing every obstacle as a chance to evolve.   The harder the better.  Adversity = Opportunity  to achieve Greatnes...

It's My Tribe! Don't Mess With My Tribe!

Image
My tribe: We are health minded physically active people. We pursue excellence in all things but understand there is no such thing as perfection.  We are visionary dreamers and leaders. We are calm of spirit and nonjudgmental. Giving unselfishly. We understand the value of friendship and family. We seek to better ourselves and make the world a better place.  We serve ourselves as well as others. We work from a place from within our selves moving outward.  Being the change in the world we want to see.   We love life and are forgiving of our selves and others.  We back away, disengage or avoid negative energy. We pursue financial stability. We seek monetary reward to strengthen our foundations. The goal is to make a more simple life but yet live a high quality of life.   Less dependent on others and work toward self reliance. We are not necessarily focused on material but on lifestyle.  Quality over quantity.  ...

Yoga Flow 1

Image
"The Flow Of The Breath" The practice of Yoga builds mental toughness, flexibility, balance and strength.  This is my Daily practice. Enjoy!  Do not forget to SMILE!   The "Flow State Yoga"  Routine: Start with 5 minutes of Box Breathing followed my 5 to 10 minutes of Meditation.   I  use the breath to transition.  Inhale, exhale move (flow) to the next.  I use the Deep Breath as "stop" anywhere from 2 to 5 breaths.  I am listening to my body.  What is it saying?  How are my muscles feeling?  Are they tight?  Is there pain?  Warmth?  How is My balance?  How is my breath effected by the transition or sitting in the pose.   I move slow and intentional.   Moving gently through each transition.  Remember to breathe.   Through your nose comes in  the breath.  Bringing fresh oxygen.  Energy.  Abundance!  "You got this" I say to my s...

Accountability Mirror

Image
The Accountability Mirror.  What is it?  Goggins describes it like this:  You get up go to the mirror.  Who is looking back?   Are you seeing the person you expected?  Can you see your future Kick Ass self somewhere in the mirror?  Ask yourself "What is it going to take to get there?  What do you have to do".  Are you willing to do what it takes?  Are you willing to SUFFER?  Are you willing to get after it?  Are your willing to sacrifice? Who are You?  Are you seeing the person reflect back at you the person you think you are?  Or do you have work to do.  Are you Accountable?  Is what you do in private reflecting what you do and how you act in public? This is the starting line to your future!  Now is the time!  No longer are you looking at the wake of your life!  But setting the course from the front!  You see your future! It is Awesome! Now is the time!  The time to...

Attitude of Gratitude "1,000 Thank Yous"

Image
"Mahalo Ke Akua" Mahalo "Thank You".  Ke Akua, "God". Thank you for the clean air that I breath, the fresh water  I drink, the healthy food I eat and the roof over my head.  Most importantly, Thank You for all the wonderful loving people that  have been in my life, currently in my life and  who will come into my life! Pure Joy is found in the service of others.  When you practice Gratitude, you start to serve, bringing  pure Joy into your life!  Having an Attitude of Gratitude  is found in a practice of Gratitude.  Every day I get up and start my AM ritual.  Part my ritual is to write in my Gratitude Journal.  I start with the 3 things I am  most grateful this day.  As I have done this, I am now experiencing  a shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset.    M ahalo,  "Thank You".  Ke Akua, "God".  Thank you for the clean air that I breath, the fresh water...

How I strive to live! What I have learned over years. This about sums it up. Today is a day I reflect on all I am. Today is a special day for me.

Manure

Image
“We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves.” — Dalai Lama Funny thing manure.  It has a smell that can be down right over powering!  You immediately recognizing it when you smell it.  I was once told by a General Surgeon if you don't know Shit don't mess with it.  What he was referring to was the bowel.  If you can't fix the  issue you may find yourself  operating on, leave it to the ones who know what they are doing.  For me as a Gynecological Surgeon it meant to stay in my zip code, the pelvis when operating.  Good advice.  Stay away from shit!   In life maybe there is similar advise we should heed.    We have those people in our lives that are constantly negative. In a constant state of drama.  They are the first to tell all of the their problem(s). How bad their life is.  How bad their life smells because every day they get up and take all ...

  Namaste Sacred Soul, Take a Deep Breath.  Let it out.  The Breath is a reminder that somewhere in the world today someone is taking their last.

It connects you to me!  You see, source resides within both of us.  Making us one. One Universe (one song, Uni-verse).   That same source comes from the Universe (God) comes through me, to your Mom/Dad, to you! Therefore, I am always with you.  We are one!   The same source that pumps your heart, pumps mine.   Knowing this, go forward today.  Make today epic!  No Fear! YOU GOT THIS!
