"As gasoline being poured on a fire fuels its out of control flames, so does successful thinking accelerates your results. - Dr H."

"The truth is -  consistent proper daily activities will always lead you to success! 

"The more active and consistent you are, the greater you potential for success.

"There are those that look at things the way they are, and ask why? I dream of things that never were, and ask why not." ~ Robert F. Kennedy

The KEY is to turn your DREAMS into GOALS... your GOALS into PLANS... and your PLANS into specific ACTIONS. 

Thoughts from living my life that I would like to pass on to those in my life and to other generations:
*Work like you don't need the money.
*Love like you've never been hurt.
*Dance like nobody's watching.
*Sing like nobody's listening.
*Live like it's Heaven on Earth.
*Choose to be a friend who will love through thick and thin and in spite of their sin.
*Choose to live life today as it was your last but plant your memories as if you were going to live another 100 years.
*Take the time to have some fun every day and share a laugh, a hug and a smile, with all you meet that day.
*Thanks for the precious memories that you have given to me and for choosing to be my friend and for loving me through my thick and thin and my sins. I truly thank my God for you!

Work Vs Personal Life 

"Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling five balls in the air. You give each ball a name - work, family, health, friends and spirit and you're keeping all of these in the air. 

You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. 

* The only difference between a rut and a grave is the depth!
** with the rut you have a 2nd. chance ... the grave... too late!

There are two main motivators in the universe—desire and fear. When we are motivated by desire we come up with reasons, justifications and motivations to go after and get what we want. When we are motivated by our fears we come up with reasons, excuses, and justifications as to why we don't do or can't do.

The secret...
Dream your dreams,  write out your goals, do the do's every day that will allow you to obtain your goals one by one and your dreams will turn into reality.

They key is that you must understand that and strive for balance in your life. 

How? 

• Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. 

• Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. 

• Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would your life, for without them, life is meaningless. 

• Many go through life not living life to its fullest potential nor do they reap the full benefits of that life. Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. The key is live your life one day at a time and by doing that you live ALL the days of your life. 

• Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. 

• Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together. 

• Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. 

• Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings. 

• Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going. 

• Don't forget that a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Love is an emotional response from our emotions but self worth and the feeling of self value only comes from feeling appreciated by those around you. 

• Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless and is a treasure you can always carry easily. 

• Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. 

• Problems are a symptom and not the cause.

• Beliefs are constructed of a group of associated states.

• Balancing is more important than overpowering or removing problems.

• Where you are now is much more important than how you got here.

• Reality is nothing more than the filter that you look at the world through.

• Change your reality and you will change your world.

How Things Work in Real Life ( Company Policy )

Start with a cage containing five monkeys. Inside the cage, hang a banana on a string and place a set of stairs under it. Before long, a monkey will go to the stairs and start to climb towards the banana. As soon as he touches the stairs, spray all of the other monkeys with cold water. After a while, another monkey makes an attempt with the same result all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water. Pretty soon, when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.

Now, put away the cold water. Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one. The new monkey sees the banana and wants to climb the stairs. To his surprise and horror, all of the other monkeys attack him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs, he will be assaulted. Next, remove another of the original five monkeys and replace it with a new one. The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment with enthusiasm! Likewise, replace a third original monkey with a new one, then a fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.

Most of the monkeys that are beating him have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs or why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey. After replacing all the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, no monkey ever again approaches the stairs to try for the banana. Why not? Because as far as they know that's the way it's always been done around here.

And that, my friends, is how a company policy begins.

Mouse Trap

I have been teaching people these simple motivational thoughts for years...

1. Don't Throw Away Your Dreams of Tomorrow... 

2. Insanity is to keep doing what your doing and expect things to change. Example of this in our finances would be, working a Just Over Broke ( JOB) year after year and expecting your finances to get better. If your J.O.B. has not afforded you the opportunity to become financially free then it only makes sense to do something that will bring about the dream of financial freedom. 

Take a look at what we have to offer. Do your do diligence and at least take a look at the opportunity that is knocking on your today. If your willing to do what others won't you will have what they never will.

3. Your success is not based on just your dreams, but is based on your day to day actions that you become committed to do until those dreams are reached. We have such an opportunity in place that will afford you that opportunity. 

Visit www.DrRickHonea.com and get the free info from my web site that will afford you a way to make your dreams come true. There are too many people making too much money for this not to be real.

4. It's the setting of the sail not the blowing of the wind that sets the destiny of the ship in motion.
