Every day I speak with people who want more out of life. And every day I speak with people who are unsure why they do not have everything they want.
Often times people fall under the hypnosis that living a great life is as easy as being positive all the time.
"Jesse, you don't understand, I think positive thoughts. I say my prayers. I express gratitude constantly. Why I am not getting the results I want in life?"
As they say: If it was that easy everyone would do it.
Unfortunately, it isn't always that easy and to live what one would consider a great life (note the term "great life" is subjective as I believe it is defined on an individual basis) there are some things we typically need to do and some we need to avoid doing.
Recently I recorded a short training on "Three of the Big Mistakes People Who Want to Live Great Lives Make.' These three big mistakes are mistakes I have seen many people who want to live great lives make.
I wanted to share them with you so that if you are making any of these mistakes you can avoid them in the future, correct course, and also bring it to the attention of the people you care about the most if you see them making any of these three mistakes.
You can watch the training in the video below. Or you can click this link to go and watch it in youtube.
If you have any questions about what is discussed in this training video, please leave them in the comments below.
I hope you found value watching "The Three Big Mistakes People Who Want to Live Great Lives Make."
Carpe Diem,
Jesse

Five Reasons Why You Fail to Achieve Your Goals
It has been conclusively proven time and time again that goal setting leads to goal achieving.
Countless studies have shown that taking the additional steps of writing down your goals, sharing them with someone else, and creating a deadline to accomplish them also enhances the likelihood of them being accomplished.
With so much success science available on the importance of goal setting, why is it still that so many people still fail to achieve their goals?
If you are someone, or you know someone, who has goals, but at times struggles to achieve them, then you want to watch this training on "The Five Reasons Why You Fail to Achieve Your Goals," I put together for you.
In it I share with you Five of the main reasons why people fail to achieve their goals. If you take the neccessary steps to stop yourself from doing these five things then you will be fast tracking yourself on a path to goal achievement .

Four Steps to Create Immediate Positive Change
Every day I talk with amazing people from all over the world. And every day, without fail, I speak with at least one person that says "Jesse I would love to make more positive changes, but I don't know how."
Is that you?
Or
If you are doing awesome at life (YAY you), could you make one or two key positive changes that would would elevate your life from awesome to even more awesome?
Whether you are struggling to figure things out or you are on cruise control - I have yet to meet an honest person who doesn't have at least one positive change they would like to make.
Positive changes in our lives lead to positive results experienced not only by us, but often the people we care about the most. After all, when we are at our best then we often show up and bring our best to the table when we are spending time with our main people.
Because positive change is so important, I recently hosted a Facebook Live training sharing four steps that anyone can take right away to create immediate change. You can watch that training by clicking here. Or click the video below.
I encourage you to watch the entire training, but if you are short on time and want to get the main bullet points right now, here they are:
Change Your State
Whether it is our mental or emotional state - our thoughts and feelings will dictate the quality of our lives. Here's a video I put together on Mastering Your Mindset.
Connect to Your Why
Our "why" is our greatest source of inspiration/motivation/determination for why we do what we do. If you are struggling to accomplish something or not following through on your goals it is likely because you aren't connecting to your "why." Here's a great video about your "why."
Utilize a Mentor
The simplest way I can explain the role a mentor/coach can have in your life is to help you get from where you are to where you want to be as fast, safe, efficient, and effectively as possible. There is no need to lose days, weeks, months, even years of your life banging your head against the wall in frustration because you are unable to produce the results you want. Tap into the awesome resources of a coach. If you want to learn more about coaching services that I offer you can check those out here.
Take Action
Nothing changes if we do not take action to change things. Click here to watch a video I recorded about making the decision to choose an action of action.
I hope you found value in this blog. Leave me a comment below and let me know your thoughts.
Until next time...

The Last Wishes of Alexander the Great
A great short story - well worth the read.
"The last wishes of Alexander the Great:
On his death bed, Alexander summoned his generals and told them his three ultimate wishes:
1. The best doctors should carry his coffin
2. The wealth he has accumulated (money, gold, precious stones) should be scattered along the procession to the cemetery, and
3. His hands should be let loose, hanging outside the coffin for all to see.
One of his generals who was surprised by these unusual requests asked Alexander to explain.
Here is what Alexander the Great had to say:
1. I want the best doctors to carry my coffin to demonstrate that, in the face of death, even the best doctors in the world have no power to heal
2. I want the road to be covered with my treasure so that everybody sees that material wealth acquired on earth, stays on earth
3. I want my hands to swing in the wind, so that people understand that we come to this world empty handed and we leave this world empty handed after the most precious treasure of all is exhausted, and that is TIME.
TIME is our most precious treasure because it is LIMITED. We can produce more wealth, but we cannot produce more time.
When we give someone our time, we actually give a portion of our life that we will never take back.
Our time is our life."
Powerful questions to ask yourself:
Are you living the life you want to live? If no, what needs to change?
How will you spend Your time today? What are three things you can do that will add happiness, joy, and fulfillment to your day?

Jesse
