...Always Civil: How to Be CEO Of Your Life

...Always Civil: How to Be CEO Of Your Life:

lovestephe:

Sounds good, doesn’t it? The CEO of Your Life means that you are in charge, you make the decisions; you’re in control of your life. Guess what, you already are the CEO of Your Life; you already have 100% responsibility for whatever happens in your life. You need to recognize it, accept it and take action.

If you were a Company, you would do monthly, quarterly and year end reviews as well as plan for the next year. As the CEO of Your Life, it is time for you to do the same. Let’s begin.

Are you reaching your objectives? Look at both your short and long term goals. If you want to have more time to spend with your family or have more money for vacations/hobbies/children’s college, you might want to take a look at starting a home business, online business or a network marketing business. Such businesses not only provide you with additional income, they also allow you to take advantage of well over 100 tax benefits that are available ONLY to the owners of a home business.

As CEO of Your Life set your 10 year goal. Where do you want to be in 10 years. Then chunk it down into smaller increments. Where do you want to be in 1, 3 and 5 years? It is essential that you put your goals in writing.

What is your Mission Statement/Your Purpose in Life? Do you know what your purpose in life is? If not, take the time to decide what truly matters to you long term. For some, it is raising and being part of a wonderful family while for others it is to feed starving children, save the rainforest or any number of causes. What matters to You? One of the best books I have ever read on this topic is Hyrum Smith’s book The 10 Natural Laws of Successful Time and Life Managementpublished in 1994.

Define Your Purpose. Be clear on what it is that matters to you. Focus and definiteness of action will then take you where you want to go.

Is ongoing education a part of Your Life? The world is changing constantly and rapidly.How we communicate with each other is one of the biggest changes; that change alone is causing confusion across the generations. The day of the hand written letter, mailed letter, has been replaced with text messages. Many people rarely even check their voicemail. The importance of phone calls and e-mails has changed. Whether you are talking about personal or business relationships, social media and social networking are key. These days, when people“reach out and touch someone” most likely they are doing it online. Be there.

So, how are you doing as the CEO of You

Are you pleased with your job performance?

Had you ever thought of yourself as the CEO of Your Life?

Do you see how recognizing that you are the CEO of Your Life can make a difference?

The metaphor is incredible.

mayamagnetic:

I emailed this video to one of my high school English teachers who is interested in my slam poetry and his response made me so happy. This is what he said:

“Maya, I am completely floored.
When I saw the title of the performance I knew it was going somewhere. The metaphor of love as a game for which the playee has bared and simplified herself in hopes of the pleasure (“isn’t this fun”) of experiencing the thrill of the fall is a story I know too well. I love the notion of the feminine having to abridge herself because the other does not have the ability to grasp and understand the complexity of the beauty that exists outside of the block. I find it ironic how the blocks all represent pieces of a whole being, yet the being can’t be whole and still rollercoaster about the waves of passion - for she would break. But by truncating herself into pieces she remains a multi-layered unit that can fall, not break and rebuild herself.
The question lies:
When will the time come that my pieces can stay where they belong and not be meddled by the hands of one who doesn’t understand my true worth?
Will I find a compliment who doesn’t want to play me, but rather wants to support my tower and secure me if any of my blocks begin to slide without my knowledge?
Dare I say - Is there one who will build me higher?”

Mon, 10 Oct 2011 10:01:37 -0400

“Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

“I hope from now until your death that you wake each day and go to sleep each night tortured by the vision of the five young boys whose lives you ended,” Lawson said reading from a prepared speech. “May your soul never experience a day’s rest or peace, and when you die, I pray you go straight to hell where you belong.”

~Terry Lawson, whose brother, Michael McDowell, was among the victims, of a 1978 slaying in Newark, NJ.
