It was in early 2009 when I was first introduced to my mentor…a spry 78 year old man….and my life would never be the same! He stressed the importance of personal philosophy. The importance of how discipline determines the outcome of things…namely taking ACTION. And possibly the most important of all…PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT. For when you are continuously working on your personal development, you are in a state of learning. Which means you grow as a human being. It makes you a better friend, a better parent, a better partner/spouse…the list can go on. But to sum it up…it makes you a better person!

Throughout life, we’re faced with opportunity and difficulty…mine has been no different. Many positive things have happened in my life. At the same time, there have been times that I have struggled. In recent years, it seems like there has been more difficulty than opportunity. And why is that?

My mentor said it best…”The formula for failure – ERRORS IN JUDGMENT REPEATED every day”.

He said “DON’T WISH IT WERE EASIER, WISH YOU WERE BETTER!
Change the way I think…the way I act. To do this I needed to use the steps for success…

“Small, basic DISCIPLINES PRACTICED every day“.

So now this is what drives me…disciplined, focused action!

My mentor made it clear most of his teachings were not his own. For he had a mentor as well. So in true Pay It Forward fashion, I am passing on the philosophies and thoughts to others. Using his teachings and also gathering up my own years of past experiences, I am investing it into the future.

Not only for my own development…but hopefully guiding, supporting and inspiring others through coaching for Better Health & Aging.

Pay It Forward – Make The World Happy…and always Press Play!
