Whatup, Michael!

Fantastic post… and I love that Chinese proverb!

Just today, I was DRIVING MYSELF CRAZY,
diving toward the passenger-side floor of my car at every stop light.

I was on my way back from dropping my son at school,
I was having all kinds of insights and ideas,
AND I COULDN’T FIND A PEN !!!!!

Word of advice folks – either keep lots of pens in the car,
and/or tell your wife not to move them when she cleans out the car,
and/or pull over when you need to look for a pen in the car!!!!!

great post.

Bolaji.

Comment on The Success Secrets: Acknowledge—The Art of Acknowledgement by M.RAUF

An acknowledgment is something about who the person is being or how they had to show up to accomplish something. It is not necessarily about the result or the outcome of the effort but more about the person. Something nice I said to my five-year old after his basketball game on Sunday, “Great game.” The acknowledgment that didn’t get spoken, “Boy, you really gave that game 100% and didn’t quit trying even when you got tired.”

Hi Michael,

I’m one of those writers. I am actually really KNOWN for it, that I take massive notes. People comment on it, like, why do you do that? Some have even suggested that I should take fewer notes, just a few pages and should EXPERIENCE the experience more. Yeah. Right. So, what is going on is that the physical act of handwriting your notes is that you imprint it and the ideas more fully into your unconscious mind. When we are typing or texting the interaction with the brain is at the single text letter level. When we hand write it out, we imprint the words into our brain. Full Words. We can also do more things to imprint our brains like printing out block letters so it creates more of an image. Or Asterisks, Stars, Highlighting colors, underlining and arrows.

The most successful people I know take massive notes. Then we house them in notebooks and review and add to them. I color code my 3 ring notebooks.

This way also when I want to find something, I know where to go look for it and USE it. Using it is where we see the ROI of the seminar we attended and the time we invested in taking the notes. Ca-ching baby!

Very useful advice. I really like that you say what NOT to do during the break time. I think that's where I've made my mistake: going straight to email and getting distracted. Cherie Miranda The Power of Group Meditation

I would add a hand held recorder really helps out as well. I can't write as fast as I would like. I transfer info to a pad later by hand because once I've written it down it seems to solidify in my memeory. Las Vegas Air Conditioning Service & Repairs

To me, there is no better life example than the NFL. There is the Superbowl winner and 31 other teams, that's it. Football is perhaps the only sport where if you have the best guy you are still not guaranteed a single win. It takes the whole team. Las Vegas Air Conditioning Service & Repairs
