A confession …
2011 did not turn out the way I thought it would.
In fact, for part of the year, I was frustrated, irritated, and emotionally drained.
Let me give you an example….
I put my heart and soul into a program called “Never Be Stuck.” I was ECSTATIC about rolling this out.
We thought that we would have at least 200 people register.
23 people signed up …
11.5% of my goal.
That is not just an F … It’s an F-. If there were a worse grade, it would be a G.
Let’s see…
Here are a few other non-accomplishments …
1) I lost a few good friends who let me down.
2) My wife and I had more than our fair share of arguments.
3) My kids had some discipline issues that made me wonder whether I’m raising them the right way.
I’m telling you this for a couple of reasons …
First, I want to keep it real. Every year at this time, I take an honest assessment of my life and fully disclose where I am.
Second, I think that non-accomplishments are just as important as accomplishments. In the past, a lot of my failures have led to personal growth and development.
You see, I don’t believe that motivation comes for the hype.
I believe that motivation comes from hearing that other people are having problems too, and then seeing them work past their non-accomplishments and turn them into achievements.
As I look back on all the bad things that have happened in my life, I know that every time something bad happened, there was something that could be learned from it …
And when we learn from our failures or problems, we can turn the lemon into lemonade.
What if you turned your poor credit score into a gift?
What if your bankruptcy or foreclosure was a gift?
Let’s face it: You don’t want a better credit score. You want a better life.
So what if you could find a way to make your poor credit score the catalyst for a ton of growth and development?
Let’s figure out how to get there …
