Reinvention Tips: <strong>Persist Until You Succeed! </strong>

Sunday, April 13, 2008

Last Wednesday I was invited to be interviewed on Fox Business News Happy Hour in New York City. Later I found out that the program broadcasts live from “The Bull and Bear Pub” in the Waldorf Astoria Hotel…very cool.

I was interviewed at the bottom of the hour by Cody -the male half of the Rebecca Gomez & Cody Willard co-anchor team. Cody composed himself after some chuckling disbelief as he tried to imagine that I was once a SWAT cop he said, “I know persistence was one of the tools you used to accomplish so many goals in your life…in thirty seconds can you tell our audience how to be persistent?”

In essence, I answered, “When you keep your focus on your goal, your mind will assist you. It will look for new and creative ways to get your outcome. It’s your job to continually respond by acting upon those new ideas.”

Keeping in line with my goal of providing you with the knowledge, tools, support and hopefully, the inspiration you need to recreate your life, your career, your health and/or your relationships, I’d like you to be aware of the importance persistence is to the formula.

In, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Wattles, I was never more moved and inspired by his following words:

“God’s gift to you is more talent and ability than you could possibly use in your lifetime. Your gift to God is to develop as much of that talent and ability as you can in this lifetime.”

Having said that, when would now, be a good time to declare that you will persist until you succeed?

‘Til next time, consider taking action on an unaccomplished goal that you haven’t crossed off your to do list. Trust that you will generate new and creative ways to make it happen!
