Good morning. We had a wonderful vacation in the Poconos Mountains over the Thanksgiving week spending time with family out on the slopes.

We trust that everyone is well and not allowing the holiday season to stress you out too much. We say that because we tend to wait until the last minute and purchase gifts. The holiday comes every year at the same time and on the same day, yet the meaning of it is lost and does not make us want to run out and spend thousands of dollars on things that people often don't want or need. Good luck for all of you.
This post is about focus. Big surprise, we want you to maintain the same focus that you have had since January 2014 began. It takes major discipline to do this at this time of the year. It is necessary because it is easy to stop doing the things that made you successful and prosperous up to this point. It is also easy to get lazy when it is holiday season and most people focus on the fantasy side of life.
As you roll into 2015 in a few weeks you want to have a good momentum of discipline. Your disciplines are the things that you do daily, weekly, monthly and year after year. We love listening to Jim Rohn, he was such a wise teacher of philosophy. Your philosophy is the way you think about things, which creates the way you feel about things, which creates the actions you will or will not take. This is the time of year when you must push the hardest to keep striving towards your dreams, goals, and objectives.
If you have not gotten a mentor yet, what are you waiting for? Michael Jordan, Mohammed Ali, Jim Rohn, and anyone who has achieved anything great all had mentors. The athletes call them coaches. Those who are business leaders have mentors and focus groups. http://michaelhyatt.com/five-ways-to-find-a-mentor.html
You could speak with your manager or your companies top executive that you have access to. They may gladly mentor you. You could ask a local business leader that you know. You could also join a network marketing company that has a small cost to join. Most have excellent mentor ship and training programs that you can attend for as little as $5-$25 weekly, MikeHumes.com is available in multiple states and DarnellSelf.com is another awesome leader available globally. If you never ask you will never know where you can go.
Give yourself time. Don't lose faith if you haven't reached all of your goals for the year. If you have reached one you are successful. We love checking off our list of achievements, but it is a process. You must do the things that you can do and not focus on those things you can't do right now. Always start where you are, not where you think you should be. Stay encouraged. Continue to develop yourself personally and professionally. Today create a list of those things that you have accomplished this year. Begin to start writing down the goals and objectives that you have for 2015.
Those people you have on your holiday shopping list that you may be stressed about how much money you need to spend for their gifts,consider what's most important. Is making them smile at the gift you gave them worth it or should you spend a little less and invest in your future wealth? Success or failure are two opposite ends of the spectrum. Failure is a few errors in judgement repeated over time. Success is a few simple disciplines repeated over the same amount of time. It really is that simple. Take action today, good luck.
P.S. If you have time visit the cohdc.org and adopt a family for the holidays for as little as $25. This is the real reason for this season and the spirit of giving. Thanks
To your success,
