JumpStart - Stop Transitioning

As you probably know, I am vegan and have been for about a dozen years.

I'm a member of several vegan Facebook groups and attend events for vegans and vegetarians. I am also on a dating app for vegetarians and vegans. 

I tell you all of this because I have discovered an interesting phenomenon in the vegan/vegetarian world -  “the Transitioner”.

A transitioner is a person who constantly visits a world but never puts down roots.

I have met people who have been “transitioning” to vegetarianism for 30 or more years.

Over 30 Years!

And as a result, they have never experienced the benefits.

I'm not out to try and convince you to become vegan. I am, however, trying to convince you to make a commitment to things that are important to you and to stay with that commitment rather than bouncing back and forth. 

It's time to stop transitioning and to commit and in this JumpStart, I'll teach you how…

JumpStart - Chair Wars

A long time ago…

In a galaxy far, far away…

A battle has begun in the condo complex where I live and small skirmishes are threatening to explode into full-flown…

CHAIR WARS!

The snowbirds have descended on our complex and are seizing control of the pool chairs and there has begun an uprising among the citizens.

In an ongoing real-life situation, I'm going to share with you how complaining spreads like a virus plus how people use complaining to forward their agendas and to get their social needs met.

Don't miss this story!

It should be a reality show…

JumpStart - 5 x 2 = 16

Worry serves a purpose.

Worry gets us to think of possible negative outcomes and make plans should they occur.

The problem is, worry doesn’t typically stop once we’ve thought of alternative solutions should problems arise.  

Our worrying just continues which is not good because as my friend, Joe Vitale says, “Worry is negative goal setting.”

So how do you combat worry?  

With a simple formula: 5 x 2 = 16

I’ll teach you this simple formula for replacing worry with faith in today’s JumpStart…

JumpStart - Black Rainbows

“I got you something,” my friend said handing me a couple of pages stapled together.

“What is it?” I asked.

“I paid someone to do your horoscope,” he said, a big smile spreading across his face. “Read it.”

As I scanned the horoscope, I was surprised to see how accurate it was to my personality and my life.

“This is amazing!” I said, noticing his smile getting even larger until it became a big derisive laugh.

“Sorry man,” he said, “it's just a black rainbow…I’m just messing with you.”

“A what? Closed quote I asked. 

And that's what I first discovered that people can draw us in by telling us both sides of a story that is generic, positive, and also deprecating enough to make us believe almost anything.

You need to beware of Black Rainbows and in this JumpStart, I'll teach you what they are and how to avoid them...

JumpStart - The Inner Winner

“This was the best Disney trip we’ve ever had,” my daughter Lia said for the umpteenth time as she packed her souvenirs into her suitcase.

“Agreed,” I said.  “We got to do all the rides and shows we wanted and the press of crowds and even the ride delays really didn’t get to me, because…”

“Because why?” She asked

“Because I kept repeating something over and over in my head the entire time and it relaxed me, gave me more compassion for others, and helped me enjoy myself more than ever.”

“What was it you kept thinking?” Lia asked.

Then, something really amazing happened.

As I told her what I’d been repeating over and over in my head, a look of SHOCK went across her face because, get this: without communicating our intention we’d both adopted almost the same mantra to repeat while at the Disney parks.

Let me share with you this amazing story of father/daughter connection and, more importantly, this mantra that can relax you during frustration, physical exhaustion, and stress starting now…

JumpStart - Are You Properly Cast

As you probably know, I just been gone a week at Disney World celebrating my birthday.

One of the questions that bothered me when I was here was “how many employees does Disneyworld have? “

The answer is - none, zero, zip.

Everyone who works at Disneyworld is a cast member, not an employee.

A person is not given a job, they are cast into a role and they are rehearsed exceedingly well on how to play that role.

Oddly enough, one of the seven dwarfs shows the contrast between Disneyworld and the real world.

Let’s talk about how you can perform the vital role you live at a higher level…

JumpStart - A Thinking Universe

I'm really enjoying Wallace D. Wattles' book “The Science Of Getting Rich.”

This book is a great primer for metaphysics. 

The core concept of this and all of Wattles' books is that we live in the universe that thinks.

Not only does every molecule in the universe think, we impact what the universe thinks AND the direction it chooses by what we think.

Think about that!!

You have amazing power you may not have realize you possess or are using that power to your own detriment.

Let’s begin to align your thoughts with the universe and in so doing create the life you want starting now…

JumpStart - Burying Your Head In The Reef

If you come to visit me here in Key Largo and I take you for a walk out of the dock, you would see here and there along the ocean bottom what looks like a purplish plant growing out of the reef.

Actually, it's not a plant — — it is/was a Cassiopeia jellyfish. 

These amazing animals are actually part of the living reef and spend their lives working to spin upside down and ultimately bury themselves in the ground. 

When they die, their bodies harden and literally become part of the reef — — it is nature's way of recycling and constantly upgrading

We are all going to die someday and we are going to leave a legacy. 

The way to leave a positive legacy is to bury yourself in a reef that makes sense for you and which makes the entire ecosystem better for everyone. 

Let's talk about your legacy and how to create one you are proud of…

JumpStart - “Present!”

Remember the teacher taking attendance in school?

If you were there that day, your response was “present” (although I and the other bratty boys also loved to say “Absent!”).

To be present is to be positive.

And to be negative is to be absent.

To enjoy more and better life we need to spend less time being absent -- that is, dwelling on things we feel are lacking.

When we are present, we are grateful, and when we’re grateful the doors of joy open for us bring more to be grateful for.

Let’s talk about how you can be more present and enjoy your life more starting now.
