I want RESULTS, How do I get them?

Welcome back to our discussion on how to achieve results. Every person is here on their own journey; so results are as unique as fingerprints, snowflakes and yes… even you. However, Madison Avenue and Hollywood constantly bombard us with what it means to be successful or have ‘positive’ results in our lives.

Results are up to each individual to define for themselves. In my last installment I asked the questions: “Why are you here? What do you stand for? What is important to you? In your last breath what will you look back upon with pride?” in answering these questions we will find the foundation of our VISION.

Vision is the starting point, and arguably the most important step in achieving results. There are 4 distinct steps to results:
- Vision
- Clear Intention
- Committed Action
- Results
You can truly have anything in the world if you will follow these four simple steps. Notice I did not say easy. We are all human and can be distracted by the world around us, or more often by the conversations, and limitations we place upon ourselves.

Over the next few weeks we will explore each of these steps. Depending upon your feedback we may go deeper into a topic for a deeper cut. But now, let’s begin with Vision.

Your vision statement is your self-defined roadmap, along your self-defined journey through life. If you don’t define your vision, your path, the world, your friends, family, and even pets will do it for you.

There are different ways to discover your vision; journaling, talking to a spouse or family member, praying, mediation, brainstorming, the list is endless. But remember to craft your vision for yourself and not to please someone else. In the end a vision should be:
- Concise
- Empowering
- Convey what’s important to you

For example my vision is: “I am a stand for unity and growth, by celebrating love, humility and accountability.” You may be thinking WOW, or Great, while others may be thinking what does that mean.
Following the above guidelines; it is concise, short enough I can memorize it and not stumble over it should someone ask me… “hey Gabe, what’s your Vision?” It is empowering. This motivates me to create the world of my dreams. A world that is united and people are challenged to rise above their circumstances by my love, my humility, and my responsibility to hold everyone accountable for the current situation in life.

A vision is the core foundation from which life, results and happiness can spring. It is the blueprint for your dreams.

How do you use your vision? Just as an architect uses a blueprint, you get to look at the actions you take in a day and determine if they are supporting your vision. Only you can define your vision and choose to implement it in your daily life.

I ask you. Do you want results in you life? Yes? Then work on your vision, take time, dig-in and find out what really matters to you. If you need any help send me an email at beqivana at gmail dot com. Next time we will take your vision and learn how to have clear intention towards achieving results.

Do you want RESULTS in your life?

Are you living the life you have always dreamed of? If you think back 3, 5 or 10 years… are you now living the life you imagined? If so, congratulations and I will ask you a powerful questions: What’s Next? If you are not living the life you always dreamed of: Why Not? What’s Stopping You?

Take a moment, turn off the T.V., take a couple of deep breaths and pause. Connect with this very moment you are living. What are you sensing? Smells, faint sounds, feelings… what do you notice.

Close your eyes, take 10 long deep breaths, and then come back to this article.

Great! Welcome back to yourself. Many times we get so busy, so wrapped up in what’s going on around us, focused on yesterday or tomorrow, instead of noticing what is actually going on in our bodies and our lives in this moment.

Life is perfect in this moment. Nothing can ever be wrong in the present moment. In fact judging, using the term right or wrong only places judgment and stress into our lives.

You might be asking, sure I’m not living the life I have always wanted, but what can I do about it? The first and most critical steps to living and achieving is defining your VISION.

Why are you here? What do you stand for? What is important to you? In your last breath what will you look back upon with pride?

In order to answer any of the aforementioned questions you must have a Vision. This is the first in a series of articles designed to lay out the step by step process to creating the life you have always wanted.

Are you ready for the journey? GREAT, let’s get started. Take the questions asked above and anything else that comes to mind and write. Pen to paper; write what you think of as you go over those questions. No right or wrong, do not judge the process, just spend 20 minutes in quite and write what ever comes to mind.

My next installment will be on how to craft a Vision, what it means, why it is important, and how to use it as a powerful tool in creating the world you have always dreamed of. Don’t you deserve it? Of course you do! So get to writing, send me and email (beqivana@gmail.com) if you have any questions. Good luck and enjoy the journey!

Thanks for reading.

Power of Qivana

Friends

I hope you enjoyed my last post with the poem "Invitation" if you didn't get a chance to read it, take a moment and scroll down, you'll be glad you did.

For my Qivana faithful, the time is upon us. Our product goes live at the end of the month, and I was lucky enough to get access to some samples. Let me know if you would like a few, I can set that up.

But most importantly, it took it this morning and feel AMAZING! Clear, energized, focused, balanced, ready for my day... and all on 5:40 minutes of sleep. Best thing it isn't a jittery, too much coffee feeling.

I am focused and peaceful. That is except for the outrageous excitement I have for what is happening. This is a powerful health product, with an amazing social networking team behind it. Take a look for yourself at www.myqivana.com/gabegriess and go to www.qprelaunch.com and listened to our head doctor, Dr Laux describe what we have our hands on!

Thanks for Reading!

Oriah Mountain Dreamer

Friends this is a powerful poem that I first heard during a leadership work shop I was facilitating. One of my fellow coaches—a powerful woman and dear friend—shared this with our team before we began working with our students. If you will pause and connect with yourself before you begin reading you will find it speak straight to your soul. Take a moment, block out the world, and enjoy this powerful, touching poem.

Thanks for Reading!

The Invitation

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals, or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain.

I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving, to hide it, or fade it, or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness, and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure yours, and mine, and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments. – Oriah

Happy Easter

I hope today you choose to find empowerment, peace, and joy. Take inventory of your physical and spiritual life and be thankful. Surely there may be room for improvement, but more assuredly there are those around you in greater need. Be grateful, appreciative, and confident that today marks the beginning of something grand in you family. If anytime you are in doubt of what to do… focus out, into the world and offer a helping hand or a random act of kindness. Then in that selfless generosity, watch as your own issues melt away into insignificance.

Happy Easter

Thanks for reading.

Esse Quam Videri

To be rater than seem to be.

As I watch the world pass outside, it seems to me that many people are stressed and worried about things they cannot control... the markets, what others think, or what’s going to happen tomorrow. I told a friend of mine yesterday that the past is gone, the future is uncertain and all we ever have is now.

Eckhart Tolle, in the Power of Now, explains that all things happen in the present. Life becomes perfect and simple when lived in the present.

What can you do, today to simplify your life? Become more grounded… present? Shift, change, and choose to take control. This is your life and your only chance to live it. I invite you to find a way to shift and find peace in hear and now. Thanks for reading and Happy Easter.

Take control of your health and financial future!

Friends, Family and Followers

With the current shake up of the global economy, there is no better time to take control of your own financial situation. There are many actions you may take, but the most important one is to take ACTION… NOW.

You might chose, to reduce spending, work extra hours, find a second job, start a home based business or have a garage sale. Any and all of these can and will help, if you do them.

I have found myself at the right place at the right time… and you can too!

Even when economies slow down, people continue to spend on health and wellness. The convergence of people needing additional income, while being unwilling to trim spending on health and wellness, places QIVANA at the nexus of growth.

Qivana is a new social marketing company with a management team of experts with over 75 years of experience. Products begin shipping later this month (mid April 09). Right now is an amazing opportunity to become and Independent Business Owner, or use our revolutionary product for overall health and wellness.

This is a fantastic opportunity to be in business for yourself… but not by yourself.

I’ve included some websites and a conference call number below. Take a moment, do your own due-diligence, learn what a powerful company, team and product we have and then choose to take ACTION, and join us for a profitable, healthful and fun journey.

Thanks for reading!
