Did you hear the one about the person who was so busy, they didn’t have time to think?

The punch line is that sadly there isn’t a punch line . . . its you!

The statement isn’t 100% true because you and I actually think quite a bit (60,000 – 90,000 thoughts a day)

The problem is that we aren’t conscious of most of them and therefore usually think about the wrong stuff!

That’s why you need little “Reminders Of Excellence”

Every morning, I begin my day with a cup of coffee in a Mickey Mouse mug I bought when my family and I went to Disney a few years back.

It reminds me of what I can do when I put my mind to it.

I have a bracelet that is inscribed with “Intentional Life”.

It reminds me to live with purpose and intention.

I advise my clients to have an outlook reminder on the days they are prospecting.

The reminder says “Are you making your calls or is someone taking your money?”

This reminder takes the prize . . .

One of my clients works from home and has a daily alarm that signals the end of the work day and beginning of perhaps his most important job.

It reads . . .  It’s time for a Daddy Daughter adventure!

Today, you are cordially invited to remind yourself . . .

Of the things that matter most to you because . . .

Quite frankly, there are way too many extraneous thoughts that can and will divert your consciousness.

Peace!

I’m happy to announce that “Paul Castain’s Social Neworking Playbook” will be released later this week. Details to follow!
