Make Every Day A Winsday

The statement "make every day a winsday" is easy to say, and it sounds good when you say it. Thanks! I accomplished the first goal, and that was to come up with something desirable and easy to get behind. Now, the reality of many reading this book is that there are some areas in your life where you want the statement to challenge and to change you. For some, it's in the area of your career; you want a better job, a different job, or you may simply want to leave your job. Maybe you have the job you want and, currently, need a win in a relationship. You could possibly be tired of sitting home on the weekends, wishing you had someone to enjoy life with, or you may need to enjoy life again with your spouse or mate. No matter what attracted you to this book, I want you to know the content was written to confront any areas of mediocrity, procrastination, or settling that may exist within your life. I said any, which means you may have to do some soul searching to find your why, but once it's identified, it can be confronted. Eighty-five percent (85%) of the things that have changed in my life had to first be confronted. When we avoid these areas, we are giving them permission to remain. The longer anything remains, the stronger it becomes. As you read through the stories of my journey, I want you to think about your own. I often say every "aha" moment carries the seed of possibility for breakthrough and transformation. That means I must be willing to activate my aha's. Therefore, jotting them down and memorizing the "buttsisms" will allow you to win on the surface. As an online influencer, we call this winning the vanity metrics. You will soon learn, there's a difference between having a lot of clickish followers (likes and shares) and having a true tribe (accountability and growth). I surrendered the title and switched lanes when I became intentional about my reason for being online. I want to disrupt one's day, life, and plans. I call this "Intentional Intersections." I want my Facebook Live, e-mail, text message, or direct message to intersect with someone's excuse, emotional meltdown, frustrated attempt, or broken focus. When the message of winning meets this individual, a decision must be made. What am I going to do with knowing I don't have to stay here, feeling like this, remaining stuck, or sitting idle another day, unless I choose to do so? Settle in your heart and soul-right here, right now-that before you have a mindset, you will make a mind-SHIFT. If your mind has been set, and it's set wrong, now what? If your mind has been set that you are not smart enough, cute enough, qualified enough-or whatever enough-then you will surrender your seed of possibility and hold on to your sentence of reality. Mind-SHIFTS travel to new locations and scout out the land. Mind-SHIFTS decide that their "not yets" are better than their "right nows." Mind-SHIFTS get a glimpse of their future self and begin making decisions with their present self that makes that introduction possible-sooner rather than later. It's this type of thinking that will find a way to go to work and still find the strength to write their book, work on that business proposal, apply for those high-profile jobs, and even go back to school and prepare for their next. Mind-SHIFT individuals get up earlier, stay up later, work smarter and harder, get up after failure, and still figure it out while smiling, so you don't know what's really going on with them or in their lives. Mind-SHIFT forces winners to win within before they ever win without. You see, until you've had a mind-SHIFT, you really don't need new innovative methods. Methods should be saved for those who are going to do something with them. Don't get me wrong; comfortable coasting people can still learn these methods & have little gains. Oh! But, I didn't write this book for incremental growth only. I wrote this book for those who desire a quantum leap. Yes; for those who are tired of cycled livin
