Are you living with PASSION & ENTHUSIASM, and WAKING UP IGNITED every day? Here are 3 simple steps I learned from Dr. Kim to wake up feeling excited:1. FOCUS on your INNER FLAME and FIND your WHY. 2. FUEL your flame EVERY DAY. 3. FIGHT to keep your flame ALIVE. Focus, Fuel, Fight...Until You Get it Right...Focus, Fuel, Fight...Until You Get it Right...This is Your Life...It’s Time to Ignite! IT'S GAMETIME!!

As I suggested to my client, here's what you can do to CREATE some EXCITEMENT towards achieving your next goal. WRITE a FUTURE LETTER to yourself. Write in the state of mind that you have completed your goals for the next 3 months, 6 months, or whatever your timeframe may be. This will help you to EMBODY and IMAGINE what it will feel like when you complete your goals.Listen to my example letter, and see how I congratulate myself and talk about how proud I am to have completed specific goals.Do this POWERFUL exercise for yourself. Allow this letter to remind you what it will look and feel like to complete YOUR FUTURE goals. SEE and BE your future first... gain that CLARITY, gain that CONFIDENCE and create that EXCITEMENT. Write your future letter so that you simply increase the chances of it happening... significantly! It's YOUR FUTURE... It's GAMETIME!

We move from failure to survival when we are CONSISTENT, but when we get to survival (that first taste of success and progress) we can start to feel COMFORTABLE. Think about a time when you had some success in your life or business, started feeling a little too good about yourself, and then STOPPED doing what you did to get there. It's called COMPLACENCY and it happens to the best of us. When you stop doing what got you there, you start to LOSE YOUR EDGE... your success. You regress and continue to play the failure to survival cycle over and over again. However, when you do the things that got you to that point of success, and KEEP DOING IT - you become an OUTRAGEOUS SUCCESS - simple, but not easy. MAKE CONSISTENCY YOUR MOTTO and Just Keep Doing It!

If you have an attitude of success, you are already successful. SUCCESS IS A STATE OF MIND! There are always people there to pick you up and help you. Sometimes, we adults need to be reminded what it’s like to be young, vibrant and positive with unbridled hope and faith... just like Apollos Hester. Watch this video and connect to that part of you that knows you can finish strong! When you truly believe you can win, you will! It’s GAMETIME!

As a result, Paul and I came up with this great formula... the 3 R’s for STARTING OVER and MAKING A COMEBACK:1. REALIZE - Become aware that you have to do SOMETHING.2. RESOLVE - Decide, no matter what, you are going to make a comeback. 3. REBOOT - Recharge and Ignite yourself to make that comeback using the I am "ABEL" formula:ASK FOR HELPBE GRATEFULEVALUATE all the positive possibilities and outcomesLAUNCH your comeback, your dream, your new way of lifeThe most important thing in making a comeback is to BE CONSISTENT. Show up every day and BE CONSISTENT. There are two joys in making a comeback. First, You get to know yourself in a deeper and meaningful way you never have before. Second, You begin to realize YOU MATTER and have impact. It's Your Time. What are you waiting for?? MAKE A COMEBACK today!

Remember, Resistance is a sneaky bastard. It will creep up on you, tell you lies and hold you down if you let it. However, action will always trump Resistance! The way to break through is to make the commitment, feel the Resistance and take the action anyway. So... BEAT RESISTANCE TODAY - DO the WORK... It's funny how easily ACTION silences Resistance!

In the spirit of Aj's words, perseverance and acceptance... DON'T RUSH the process... TRUST THE PROCESS!

Sometimes, we encounter a storm in life and business. And when it hits, we step up and work harder. However, that same level of strength and desire is always inside us. We don't need to wait for the storm. Make it a point today to remember when you battled a storm. See it, feel what it was like and what you did to overcome and persevere. Lock that feeling in and then remind yourself that you can call on those parts of you regardless of any storm. Your inner strength is always there! So just PUSH FORWARD my friends!

No matter what we do, playing small or going for it, there will be pain. Just remember, the pain of change is temporary. It comes and goes… and yes, sometimes it is extremely painful. Ask yourself, is it worth it? The answer is usually yes! CHANGE IS WORTH IT.However, the pain of remaining the same hurts every single day. It grows as the days go by and can lead to so many horrible things, including depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and worse, giving up and settling for average. The pain of change is so much more worth it. The pain of remaining the same weighs tons. You will suffer pain either way so you might as well choose to be great, follow your dreams, and SUFFER THE PAIN OF CHANGE!No Pain, No Gain - it’s GAMETIME!

1. Sales - You must learn how to get people to enroll in whatever it is you are trying to help them do. Most people are uncomfortable with selling and thus, most people never succeed at doing what they love. Hard truth!2. Marketing - Master social media and many other means of marketing ourselves and our message so people can find you!3. Systems - Put systems in place that can be repeated and batched so that you can maximize your time, streamline and take your business to the next level. If you are doing what you love, but you aren’t making the money you want to make, think about these 3 things every day - and make sure you do them! It's your "SMS" to success and continuing to do what you love!

If you are a small business owner, in Sales, or an entrepreneur, every day you have to get up and make it happen. I have three H’s to help you do just that...Hustle, Hard work, and Heart!!!If you PRACTICE & COMMIT to these 3 H's daily, you are going to achieve excellence and step up your game. Sometimes it's a struggle, some days are better than others, sometimes it's tough to stay motivated, confident and positive... It's the life and business climate you chose... AND you know if you just stay in the game long enough... with HUSTLE, HARD WORK & HEART... you will survive, THRIVE and MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Believe and Achieve will bring you some success. However, to gain ultimate joy and fulfillment in life and business, we must pay attention to the first part of the quote: Conceive. Living conscious with intention will lead to true success and happiness. Follow these 7 Be’s daily to step up your game and truly achieve your greatness:1. Be Conscious2. Be-lieve3. Be Intentional4. Be Consistent5. Be Bold6. Be You7. Be a Champion!

"Life's 6 Rules" - Secrets to Success - from Arnold Schwarzenegger:1. Trust YourselfWho are you, not what, but who? Trust yourself, believe in yourself… what makes you happy?2. Break the RulesYou can’t be a maverick, push the boundaries, and be extraordinary if you don't break a few rules. 3. Don’t Be Afraid to FailYou have to be willing to fail in order to be successful. It's part of the process.4. Don’t Listen to the NaysayersSo many people will tell you, "you can't", "it's never been done", etc... be the first to do it, and always remember that you CAN!5. Work Your Butt OffIt’s ok to have fun, just be sure you work hard! There is no way around it; hard work leads to success!6. Give BackNo matter what you do, when you give back, it is more meaningful and better than so many other things you will do in life.

Think about the people you surround yourself with. Are you around achievers, movers & shakers? Do your friends share your goals, dreams and aspirations? Do the people around you push you to achieve your goals? If you surround yourself with high achievers who will bring you up and encourage you, it will help you reach your goals and grow. And, if you're the smartest person in the room, it's time to find a new room.

Let's continue to STEP UP OUR GAMES and work to LET GO of our PAST, the THINGS WE CAN'T CONTROL, and our RESULTS... peace & love my friends!!!

When you hit your current self-imposed limit on anything do... just say to yourself, "DO ONE MORE"... and then do it! Little by little, you'll push yourself to new heights... and soon you'll be doing so much more in all that you do... your HEALTH, your BUSINESS, your LIFE. Be a CHAMPION & DO ONE MORE today! Check out the show for more... ;)

"Your responsible for the EFFORT, not the RESULT." "Let Go and LET GOD."

As a champion, you must PUSH YOURSELF... you must FALL... to stretch, grow and go BEYOND YOUR LIMITS. Falling means you're improving and on your WAY TO GREATNESS! Today and every day, push yourself further, PUSH YOURSELF TO FALL... and learn to appreciate falling, learn to accept it as part of the process... and learn to ALWAYS GET BACK UP! Falling is good for you... so be a CHAMPION and fall down my friend :)

What's one dream you've given up on? Or, how much time are willing to commit today to just spend some quiet time in your IMAGINATION? Renew that dream & imagine... AND START A NEW REALITY!

Ask yourself, "how do I handle challenges and controversy?" Do you GIVE UP or do you STEP UP??? "OTSS - Only THE STRONG Survive"... Champions are born from Challenges... so do your thing like the king... and MEASURE UP & STEP UP when time are tough... YOUR LIFE & LEGACY depends on it!

So... what's one thing... one negative feeling, emotion or pattern that you want to change? Take a moment and create your CONDITIONED RESPONSE so that when it hits and tries to take you out... BOOM... you have a POSITIVE, EMPOWERING, UPLIFTING response to get YOU back IN THE GAME... back to BEING A CHAMPION... check out today's show & learn to CONDITION yourself for GREATNESS!

What a great commentary on life... "GIVE NOURISHMENT" to your mind, body & spirit today and every day!

Now, we've all heard this before... the show must go on. It's used often in entertainment, events, plays, concerts, etc... for BIG things. But what about the SMALL things? What about ALL things in life, business, health, relationships, etc...? Do you look at those little things or those personal things the same way as the big things? After all, true success is measured by EFFORT, not results. It's all the little things that add up to make the big things. Just like Joelle had an awakening to her need to start showing up for herself, her life, her business, her music, her health... just like she would when she's on stage dancing, perhaps YOU need to as well. I know I do if I'm going to be a Champion and make it my best year yet just like Joelle. The Show Must Go On in all that we do... not just the big things, but all the little things too! When you feel like GIVING UP, or feel like PROCRASTINATING, or feel like NOT SHOWING UP like you should... just take a minute, get conscious, get clear, get honest... AND pump yourself up to get back into the game by simply saying, "THE SHOW MUST GO ON!"

AND... In every challenge, there is a LESSON. Ask yourself, "what can I learn from this challenge?"LEARN the lesson, then make the change... make the CHANGE... overcome the CHALLENGE!Remember... you can't spell CHA(lle)NGE without change ;)

"It's better to be prepared for an opportunity and not have one than to have an opportunity and not be prepared." You may only get one shot... so be ready... ALWAYS BE PREPARED... "ABP"... GAMETIME!

Just ONE EXTRA DEGREE can make all the difference. Stay strong, stay the course, and just TURN UP the HEAT one degree. It's YOUR TIME to go from HOT to STEAMING... you're worth it and so is your mission... go SIZZLE my friend!

ALL OF US ARE CALLED... few will listen... even fewer will do it! YOU my friend are a Champion. You my friend have been CALLED. So... Do YOUR THING like the KING... and make like the shoe... and JUST DO IT! 'Nuff said!!

You can look at your future with fear, doubt, and dismay... OR... you can look at your future with hope and promise. Either way, you never know what the future holds! But, as a Henry Ford once said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you're right." Your future is very similar... think of it as you want it to be... and maybe, just maybe... it will be just that! Do the work, have hope and let your future be as bright as it can be!!

Now that you know this... know this too... YOU define your story! YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR STORY to serve you or continue to hurt you. CHOOSE wisely. CHOOSE a story that serves you... CHANGE YOUR STORY... CHANGE YOUR LIFE & BUSINESS forever... YOU got this!

So many of us can get so caught up in waiting for the perfect moment to start our dreams, or trying to figure everything our before we feel like we can get started. No need for that! PROGRESS is what you need. Take the FIRST STEP... you will LEARN along the way. You can't gets anywhere with out practice. When you take the steps to make PROGRESS you may not reach perfection, but you can reach EXCELLENCE!

Although some of the work it takes to make that difference can be frustrating, challenging and uncomfortable, the destination and that opportunity remain highly desirable to you. Remember that when times get tough, and be sure to make the distinction between what you're trying to accomplish and the tasks and procedures it will take to get there. Sometimes it is challenging to be excited and enthusiastic about certain aspects of your work. However, if you remind yourself to view it and treat it ALL as a privilege, you can find a deeper meaning and reason to DO THE WORK... ALL THE WORK... RAISE YOURSELF to a whole new level... AND... ULTIMATELY... MAKE THE DIFFERENCE in the world you want to make... after all, it's a privilege... YOUR work... your PRIVILEGE!

Answer those questions, own who you are and simply be the natural you! Don't focus on working on your natural WEAKNESSES. Do focus on working on your natural STRENGTHS... discover them, own them, embrace them and BE them. When you do... you are a genius, you are a leader, and you are love... YOU are YOU... and YOU are enough. So "BYT" my friends... BE YOU TODAY & be your natural Champion!

Here's a little acronym to remind you to GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD and into your heart... to OPEN YOUR HEART daily... the acronym: "BLT"... BE LOVE TODAY!

As Stuart Scott mentioned and lived by example... winning the game of life is all about "how you live, why you live and the manner in which you live"... AND by having the courage like Stuart to always stay true to who you really are! Pay attention, do that with intention and consistently, and you will make your mark on this world... you will inspire and impact many!

You never know when your time to make a huge impact in your life, someone else's life, or many people's lives may come... don't let a little sickness take away your magic moment... take away your ability to do something amazing just like Jimmy V.! In the words of and in honor of Jimmy V., "Don't give up... Don't ever give up!" It's GAMETIME.

Ask yourself this question on a daily basis, "How can I make it more fun in 2015, or make it more fun today?" Then, write down 3 things you can do to bring some fun and enjoyment into your day (and perhaps someone else's as well). Lastly, put on a smile and go do those things! Champions enjoy the ride. Champions know that happiness is a choice and that their responsible for creating joy in their life. And Champions simply make the decision on a daily basis to HAVE MORE FUN!

You got this Champion... here's to the HAPPY NEW YOU!

A perfect and fitting excerpt from Neale Donald Walsch... "On this day of your life,Dear Friend I believe God wants you to know... ...that the method of the enterprising is to plan withaudacity and execute with vigor.Christian Nevell Bovee said that, and it is a valuable observation. As we experience this holiday season, and you begin thinking about the New Year ahead, plan with audacity.And as you move into the New Year, execute your plans with vigor. There is excitement in life -- but you have to put it there.Incidentally, you may begin executing with vigor right now. Why wait?" It's TIME... to PLAY A BIGGER GAME... to live each day in 2015 with PASSION, EXCITEMENT & ENTHUSIASM... 2013 was practice. 2014 was your warm-up. 2015 it's GAMETIME!

Take a moment today and ask yourself what world and reality you want to create. Then ask yourself who are you blaming for your results, your current situation, your struggles, etc... Also, reflect on how you talk to yourself and how you treat yourself. Finally, LET GO of the BLAME, LET GO of the SHAME, and PLAY A NEW GAME! The game of responsibility and accountability. Play that Game and you're well on your way to being that divine creator... that part of you that is able to create the world in which you choose to live!

1.) Practice healthy daily habits - exercise, increase your knowledge by reading or doing personal development, and participate in extra-curricular activities such as charity, team sports, networking events, etc... hint, hint: watching lots of TV, not exercising, and not focusing on self-improvement will NOT lead to success. 2.) Break down goals and dreams into step-by-step action items - when you combine your goals and dreams with steps and plans, you accelerate your achievement and/or ensure you actually execute those goals! 3.) Show up even when you don't feel like it - sometimes inspiration and motivation come after the doing. Don't tell yourself you need to be inspired to show up because you just simply won't always feel inspired or at the top of your game. Just show up no matter what and the success will take care of itself!

1.) Pick how many times you will exercise per week (make it achievable... if you are at zero per week, just start with 1-2 days per week as an example). 2.) Get out your calendar and schedule your workouts from Now until the end of January. 3.) Make the decision that you will at least workout on these selected days from now until the end of January... NO MATTER WHAT! 4.) Start this week, not new years day or after new years as you know that's setting you up for failure... create momentum going into January and the new year! Do this and you'll be on your way to having a happy and healthy start to 2015 and much more likely to continue going into February and the rest of the year. Start small if you have to, but no matter what... START NOW... SCHEDULE YOUR HEALTH in 2015!!! You got this Champ :)

What are 5 things you can be grateful for in 2014?Take the time to review the year and remember just how special it was... no matter what, you have a things to be grateful for and it's important to spend time in thought and reflection to truly appreciate what you do have... With gratitude comes a positive attitude. And from there comes clarity, creativity and confidence... all things you'll need to step up your game in 2015! So, before you get caught up thinking, planning and doing what you want, take some time today and every day to appreciate what you already have! You'll be grateful you did :)

So again, THANK YOU SO MUCH! Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to you and yours! And to a very, very Happy New Year for all of us in 2015 - it's definetly time... YOUR time... IT'S GAMETIME!!!

In the spirit of the holiday season and GIVING... on this Christmas Eve, ask yourself, "How U Givin???" Giving initiates receiving. Lower your expectations on what you want to receive, increase your expectations on what you can GIVE... and BAM... you shall RECEIEVE MORE! So, Merry Christmas Eve... Now get out there, know what you want, and find a few ways to give it to someone else... BE A GIVING MACHINE :)

There it is! Learning is the answer to what you're searching for... or better put, "where the miracle process all begins" per the late and great Jim Rohn. Champions SEARCH. Champions LEARN & GROW. And as that miracle process continues, Champions LIVE IT, then GIVE IT! So, in the spirit of the holiday season, closing the year strong and starting the new year even stronger... DEFINE what you're searching for... then go LEARN IT, LIVE IT & GIVE IT... and have yourself a MIRACULOUS 2015!

Take a moment today to get present... prepare yourself for the fun, yet busy week ahead... remember what it's all about and do your part to rise above any of the fuss that goes along with the holidays. Simply remind yourself daily that YOU ARE... Peace, Love & Patience... and that YOU WILL... not only Give Presents & Receive Presents... BUT most importantly... BE PRESENT with all you experience and encounter this week... especially with your loved ones! Have Yourself a Merry, Merry Monday and Happy, Happy Holidays!

Learn to ONLY work with the willing … let go of those that won't do the work... do not enroll those that won't do the work... love them, but let them go until they are READY & WILLING. You rob someone else of the chance to fulfill their dreams through working with you when you work with the unwilling. You can hurt your business growth, your self-confidence, your value, etc... Learning to only WORK WITH THE WILLING will help you and your business move more and more in the direction of your dreams... AND, as importantly, both the willing and unwilling move in the direction to which they are destined!
