I remember reading a book years ago about Micheal Jordan, the reason they say that he is so good is because he WORKS HARD at what was his GIFTING. The two together meant that he was able to perform at the highest level.
The other point that the book made was that some one might work harder that Micheal Jordan but without the GIFT they will never perform at the same heights, but they can still do a great job. Also a person with the gifting of Micheal Jordan without the WORK HARD ethic will never perform at the highest level and achieve the success of Micheal Jordan.
When I read this I was doing recruitment and by some measure I had some success I had become a Recruitment Manager so achieved more than most. But the only reason that I achieved that success was because I WORK HARD but I'd seen others work less and achieve more because they were gifted in that arena.
After reviewing this I decided to leave the industry and pursue my GIFT (PURPOSE).
I knew I loved business and wanted to know more about business so I placed my self in a arena to learn. I also keep my hard work attitude and with the two years the organisation that I help manage is performing stronger year by year. This QTR we hit our target with a month to go and achieved our best QTR ever recorded.
I say this because I meet so many people working in a role / position that they don't enjoy. GUESS WHAT! If you remain there you will never perform at the highest level because you lack the passion because you are not working in the arena of your gifting (PURPOSE)
I am still working on this and have to at times turn down opportunities that pay more, because I know I would do OK but it is not my gifting so I will not enjoy if for long.
Don't waste your life chasing someone else dream go after your own.

Don't forget the little things
Just speaking to a friend this morning, it is easy to focus on the bigger picture but forget to do the small things well.
There is a saying what you do today will determine your tomorrow. So it is no good having your head in the clouds dreaming all the time at some stage you must do what it is you need do today to ensure your dreams can come true.
A saying my friend Tim always say is "we can be so heavenly minded but no earthly good"
That's a real challenge for me as I tend to be a person that loves to dream of what will be and forget to do what I need do today.
I find also this for myself is where alot of frustration lie. Because I at times don't do the things that I need to do today I end up frustrated because I feel that the dream is to far off or taking longer than expected.
But if you do something small it still momentum towards the dream and keeps the fire burning and the passion flowing instead of nothing which leads to nothingness.
I have two things I need today
Confirm dates with Hyatt
Book in the next video shoot
Lets make it happen

Business is a exciting world to be apart of.
I reflected today and realised I love business.
Like truly love business. Today I equated business to like raising a child, every step of the journey is a new experience that brings it own problems but also it own rewards.
What I love about business is the possibility of what can be achieved with a vision, hard work, and a sprinkle of luck. Today had a official meeting with my future partners in a venture that could change a industry, bold statement but it is true.
We are at the beginning of a three year plan that if executed well will bring about tremendous success and prove than there is no perfect time to set up a business just do.
In all truth I think that right now is the perfect time because the market we are in is fragile and every one is running scared instead of embracing the times and innovating ideas that work with the times.
Once we have the solid fountains laid I will be sharing more via the blog, facebook and youtube. So you can have a fly on the wall view how we will begin to transform what is a very old and dated industry. (I so want to tell you more but I can't!!!!!!!)
It going to be three years of sacrifice so those that know me don't expect to see me much, but to achieve any thing in life it takes sacrifice and the vision I have is worth it.
One question for anyone who is reading this blog, do you have a idea for a business right now? If yes go for it what do you have to lose?
Also to share we have agreed a price at the Hyatt so watch out for the Gen Meet from www.gen-hope.co.uk that will be launching this month with limited spaces.

Can't Sleep
If you ask any one around me I sleep around 5- 6 hours a day.
I not that I cannot sleep because when my head hit that pillow I sleep like a baby. My problem is there is so much to be done and no time to complete it.
I am of the opinion I have been blessed to live in the UK, blessed to have health and blessed to have a purpose in live and blessed to have God in my life that give me the faith that dreams can come true.
We just emailed the Hyatt to prayfully book in the dates for the Gen Meet monthly meeting, worked on the business plan for the new venture and reviewing finance to ensure we as a family is secure.
Ask yourself are you always tied you got to find your passion and direction in life. Lots of people say I should slow down but my question is WHY. I don't know how long I have on this earth until I pass on to Heaven so in the time I have I going to fit in as much as I can.
Time to sign off and get ready for a new day to conquer.

Changing your standard
| Enlightening Network |
Just a short post today. I over the last two days I have been really blessed by three friends who are out there making it happen. I will share their names because I think it is important.
First is Michael Edmeade of Body Sharp. He set up his business trying to change the lifestyle of people who desire to be healthy and change their bodies after more than a year he taking a greater leap of faith and opening up Bodysharp gym. http://
The second person is Liam (Waves - personal nickname)Francis who has also stepped out in faith and set up a business around his gifting of poetry http://
The third person is Roger Moore of www.glmedia.co.uk This guy has the heart of a champion. He been knocked and he refusing to stay down and like Apple he keep re inventing himself and moving with the times. Also he is helping young kids establish their dreams and providing a environment that breeding positivity and productivity among young people.
What is also inspiring about all three they have a deep down desire to help people more than the obsession of making money. They all want to make a difference to those around them.
I could mention so many other people that have inspired me this week alone. Why I wanted to share this is to say look at the people you speak to the most, hang around with, listen to, get advice from. Are they raising your standards or lowering your standards.
I remember a good friend Tony said to me name the 10 people who you interact with the most. Review their lives and find the common theme and that is a indication of what your life is or what your life will become. That is either exciting or demoralising dependant on the 10 people.
If you want to change your life, raise your standards.
Do be unevenly yoked with the wrong crowd!!!
