<p>There&#8217;s a <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> inside of you, that you&#8217;ve not discovered or experienced yet, at least not on a daily basis. It&#8217;s the <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> that&#8217;s able to achieve more than you&#8217;ve ever imagined.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s the <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> that&#8217;s able to accept challenges and stick to a plan that will bring great success in all you do. It&#8217;s the <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> that can take care of your life without being controlled by circumstances, events, bosses or even plain old fear.</p>
<p>That <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> is someone you already are and someone you can begin to experience immediately. You can experience this <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> by developing the abilities that few know about and even fewer apply.</p>
<p>This is the <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> that my self-appointed job is to help bring out of you. This <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> is the champion that&#8217;s living in each one of us.</p>
<p>Many of you might be saying &#8220;Well, you can&#8217;t have it all in life,&#8221; but I&#8217;m saying you can. You can design and have a life full of accomplishments and I plan on being there to help you.</p>
<p>As we continue to work on learning the principles that allow us to find the <strong>&#8216;You&#8217;</strong> within us, let&#8217;s not overlook this opportunity of a life time.</p>
<p><strong><font color="#cc0000">I&#8217;m offering a new six week program called, &#8220;Making It Happen,&#8221; that will help you make the changes necessary to give you the best life has to offer! Please call for classroom registration, seating may be limited!</font></strong></p>

<p>If things are to ever happen in my life, it&#8217;s only going to be because of my motivation. Doesn&#8217;t it seem like we get excited about a change in our life and we lose the excitement or something steals our motivation?</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been working with people for a good number of years and I often see them get so excited that I wonder if they can even sleep at night. Some how they manage to lose their motivation and excitement. We&#8217;re never going to achieve what our creator planned for us, if we can&#8217;t find a way to stay motivated.</p>
<p>What if I drew a line and told you that simply stepping over that line would change your life? If you had the motivation you needed, would you take that step?</p>
<p>Certainly you would! If you knew taking that step would guarantee inner peace, riches, enlightenment and physical well-being, you wouldn’t hesitate for a second.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to give you the opportunity to take that step. As we continue to build on the motivation to make the first step and keep going, you&#8217;ll see that stepping across the line works.</p>

<p>Once you walk forward in faith, with a conscious effort, all manner of support and tangible backing will be available to you.</p>
<p>Until you become committed, there&#8217;s always a hesitancy that&#8217;s lurking in the wings, looking for a way to stop you. It&#8217;s entirely up to you, whether or not you become committed.</p>
<p>It seems like our ideas, dreams and goals are just sitting there, waiting for the first ounce of commitment to be injected.</p>
<p>I have seen this time and time again. People get excited over something they&#8217;ve heard or saw, only to find themselves not doing what first got them excited.</p>
<p>Life only gives us so many opportunities and we must learn how to become committed, if we&#8217;re to take advantage of these opportunities. I see people struggling with various parts of their lives, because of lack of commitment.</p>
<p>You need to put together a plan, commit to doing it and not deviate from it. This takes discipline, but it&#8217;s the only way. There are areas in my life that are in the commitment zone and there&#8217;s no way I&#8217;ll be kept from doing these things.</p>
<p>We all need our commitment zones and I hope I can help you to find these in your life. If you can become committed enough to work with me, I&#8217;ll help you put your heart and soul into reaching your goals.</p>

<p>&#8220;Could it be so simple as just writing it down?&#8221; I ask myself. I&#8217;ve been looking for a way of directing my life and now I&#8217;ve come to the point that says, &#8220;I need to make a script of what I want my life to be.&#8221;</p>
<p>This is the point I hope all of us can reach. Scripting your life is such a valuable tool for structuring the direction you want to go.</p>
<p>When you write down your dreams and aspirations it&#8217;s much like hanging a up sign saying, &#8220;I&#8217;m Open For Business!&#8221;</p>
<p>It&#8217;s like declaring to yourself, &#8220;I&#8217;m In The Game.&#8221; There&#8217;s something in our mind that separates important from the unimportant. This is how we filter out noise, but remain alert to important sounds.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve noticed this in Shirley. When we have our grandchildren over, there are noises such as cars, ice maker or water softener. She can sleep through all that, but the small cry of a baby will alert her, to wake up.</p>
<p>This is what happens when scripting your life. It wakes you up and keeps you alert to where you&#8217;re going and what you&#8217;re doing.</p>

<p>There are so many times when people will say to me, “How do I get started with a change of life?” I always tell them, they need to start small and work up to the change they&#8217;re looking for.</p>
<p>St. Frances of Assisi once put it this way, ”Start doing what&#8217;s necessary, then do what&#8217;s possible, and suddenly you&#8217;re doing the impossible!”</p>
<p>It all starts just where we are right now. We can&#8217;t conquer the world until we can take care of the things in our own back yard.</p>
<p>Our potential is our gift from God. What we do with it is our gift back to Him.</p>
<p>To find change in our life, we need to start by looking at the environment we have created for ourselves and see if it will allow us to change into the person we&#8217;re desiring to become.</p>
<p>One way to do this is to look at others who have become what we are longing for and look at the environment they set up for themselves. Many times we can, with small changes, create for ourselves an environment that&#8217;s just what we need to succeed!</p>

<p>As you make your way on life&#8217;s journey, it&#8217;s easy to unwittingly veer off course, not realizing the goals you once had, don&#8217;t seem to matter much anymore. You don&#8217;t need to wait for something drastic to happen to force you back on track. You don&#8217;t have to wait, but you can start today to create or recreate your ideal life.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a catch to what I am saying. There&#8217;s a reason for struggling to stay on course or for not being able to start on course. There&#8217;s an element that must be present for this to happen.</p>
<p>Our whole purpose at the Better You, is to help people like you to discover the champion in them. It&#8217;s the element of a champion that will win the race you&#8217;re on.</p>
<p>So you ask, “What&#8217;s this element Don?” After looking at the conditions of many people&#8217;s lives, the answer is simply, &#8220;You Have To Know How To Fight For What You Want!&#8221;</p>
<p>The reason people are failing, is because they&#8217;re not discovering the champion in them. For the lack of better words, they simply can&#8217;t get themselves to fight for what they want in life.</p>
<p>I plan on discussing this hard and heavy for some time. It might irritate some people to hear this, because they want to be nice and not have to fight for what they want. They&#8217;ll never achieve the things that are important to them, if they don&#8217;t fight for it.</p>
<p>This is a time for shaking and not a time for falling asleep at the wheel. We all need to have the fight of a champion in us, to drive us to the levels of greatness in all we do.</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s fight like CHAMPIONS!!!!!!</p>

<p>It&#8217;s that time again, time for a brand new six week series and I&#8217;m excited about this one. We&#8217;re calling it &#8220;Making It Happen!&#8221;</p>
<p>We have just finished the series &#8220;Achieving Everything You Have Always Wanted&#8221; and in my books, it was one of the best. The response was great and for those who latched on to the ideas discussed, it will help them become a champion in life.</p>
<p>This is the time for self-improvement. To progress in our live, we need to be becoming superior to our previous self. A man by the name of George Knox once said, &#8220;When you cease to be better, you cease to be good.&#8221;</p>
<p>One way to self-improvement is to become teachable, to put yourself in a learning role whenever possible. Find ways to learn new things, each and every day. This will not only help you to become better and better, it will also help to make life more exciting for you.</p>
<p>Another thing you can do is to plan your progress. Put a plan together on the books you&#8217;re going to read and what area of your life do you want to improve. Make sure that a day doesn&#8217;t pass without experiencing some sort of improvement.</p>
<p>My question to you is this, &#8220;What specifically are you doing to continually get better?&#8221; With this in mind, we&#8217;re going to be looking for ways to jump start our lives. We want to get into position to make things happen!</p>

<p>Every bit of human progress, since the beginning of time, started with goals set by people. A goal is much more than a dream, it&#8217;s a dream that has been acted upon, it&#8217;s an objective and a purpose that has been acted upon.</p>
<p>Without goals people just seem to wander through life. There&#8217;s nothing that happens until a goal of some sort is established. Life seems to be a hazy ordeal until the moment a goal is established. That&#8217;s when things become perfectly clear.</p>
<p>In a world where people trying to be successful, goals are as important as the air we breath. No one lives without air and no one finds success without setting goals.</p>

I&#8217;ll teach you how to successfully implement your plan, through setting goals and working toward achieving them.</p>
<p>By doing this exercise, you&#8217;ll be seeing yourself growing into the person of great success and achievement.</p>
<p>The important thing right now isn&#8217;t where you&#8217;ve been or where you are, but where you intend to be in the future.</p>

<p>As we continue to climb upstairs into the uncrowded world of success, we discover people from all sorts of backgrounds who&#8217;ve failed and stopped climbing. People fit into one of three different groups. People in the first group, lose an opportunity in life, get knocked down, splatter and never get up.</p>
<p>Next are the mediocre or normal people, who get knocked down, rise to their knees and crawl away. They run in the opposite direction, determined not get beaten again.</p>
<p>Finally are the people built for success, who react completely differently. When they get knocked down they bounce right back up, learn a lesson or two, forget they&#8217;ve been knocked down and keep on climbing.</p>
<p>People who are successful have a different way at looking at things than normal people. They look at hopeless situations and don&#8217;t allow negative issues cause them to lose heart. They continue to persist despite the fact people are splattering all around them.</p>
<p>I use to hate being around people like that. I used to ask myself, &#8220;What&#8217;s the matter with them, don&#8217;t they realize they might get hurt?&#8221; It took me a while to realize they were on to something. The only way to succeed is to walk this path. We need to be able to bounce back from any defeat and say to ourselves, &#8220;I don&#8217;t splatter, I bounce.&#8221;</p>

<p>How to tell when you&#8217;re off track and how you get back on is a question so many people bring up. We&#8217;ve been working on a total brain makeover and this is the last session on “You Are What You Think You Are!” This was explosive stuff. We discussed how seeds are sown and planted in our minds. This is the reason we act as we do, and how we manage our lives to be as productive as we are meant to be. If we can learn how to plant the right seeds in our mind, we&#8217;ll harness the thoughts they produce.</p>
<p>This along with our creator&#8217;s direction, can be a born again experience in our lives, if we&#8217;re able to captivate this concept and do something with it. Too often, our lives are like a dead tree branch in the middle of the ocean of life, drifting where ever the currents of time take it.</p>
<p>You might be saying to yourself, “What in the world is Don talking about?” What I am talking about is a chance, your chance of a life time, to achieve everything you&#8217;ve always wanted.</p>
<p>Look, if it hasn&#8217;t happened yet, it most likely never will, unless you change the way you&#8217;re thinking. Plant some new seeds in that mind of yours. We&#8217;re not getting any younger, the time keeps ticking by like a time bomb and you need an explosion to make something happen in your life. This might possibly be the only way to get you on track, going where you&#8217;re destined to go. I want to help you have fighting chance to live and achieve all that&#8217;s meant for you.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re talking about Making Your Attitudes Your Allies, which is another key to help us step into our purpose in life. Our attitudes are the mirrors of our minds, they tell us just what&#8217;s going on in there.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s interesting to know just what guides our pathways in life. The answer to this is our mind and how we think. It&#8217;s also interesting that we can achieve all we want by simply lifting up our thoughts, for everything is relative to the way we think. We&#8217;re all made or unmade by ourselves and the way we think. Our success or failure is determined by the choices we make.</p>
<p>Our mind is primary tool we use to make us the person we want to be. Change your thoughts, change your life. This is the fourth year &#8220;The Better You&#8221; has been meeting. We&#8217;ve seen tremendous results in many lives and have received countless testimonies of the achievements people are accomplishing. The reason for this is, we&#8217;re learning to think like successful people. When we think like successful people, we become successful people. It&#8217;s that simple.</p>
<p>Good thoughts and actions can never produce bad results, just like bad thoughts and actions can&#8217;t produce good results. He who has conquered his thoughts, has conquered life. Our creator again has given us a wonderful opportunity to have the best that life has to offer, but it&#8217;s up to us to make sure we&#8217;re feeding the right thoughts.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s just like planting the right seeds to produce the right harvest. Our bodies are a servant to our minds. At the command of good positive thoughts, we truly can achieve all that we ever wanted. We truly are everything we think we are!</p>

<p>The basic concepts we&#8217;re searching out in this series, &#8220;Achieving Everything You&#8217;ve Always Wanted,&#8221; come from the oldest source known to man, the Bible. As gold miners search for gold, we&#8217;ll be searching for understanding, on how we can transform our thinking. This will help us realize, we are the most powerful, successful, potential filled people in all of God&#8217;s creation.</p>
<p>The prophet David said, &#8220;As one thinks in his heart so is he.&#8221; This isn&#8217;t an untested theory, or one man&#8217;s opinion, but a proven approach to life&#8217;s situations. If followed, it will allow a person to achieve the highest level of what life has to offer.</p>
<p>This week I would like to give you some insight on the number one destroyer of dreams and goals, our fear. Fear is real and it does exist. Fear is success enemy number one. It stops people from capitalizing on their dreams and opportunities. Our fears will wear us down physically, make us sick, shorten our lives and keep us from saying what needs to be said. Fear and lack of confidence explains why we still have economic recessions. This explains why millions of people accomplish little and find little enjoyment.</p>
<p>Fear is a powerful force that keeps people from getting what they want in life. I want to tell you how to overcome fear, but first I need to say, nobody is born fearful or lacks confidence. These are all learned emotions we&#8217;ve acquired from our experiences. The neat thing about this is, if fear is learned, it can be unlearned.</p>
<p>The cure for fear is action. You overcome fear by doing what you&#8217;re afraid of. This sounds too simple, I know, but it&#8217;s true. I have a fear of going to the top of a high ladder. This was caused by a fall back in 1997, breaking my heal and leaving me with eight screws in the heal. When I need to get up on a high ladder, it&#8217;s hard for me the first time up. After I put action behind my fear, a couple times later, I develop confidence and don&#8217;t even think about falling.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s true, ACTION is what&#8217;s needed to cure your fears!</p>
<p><u>CURE YOUR FEAR</u>! Take Action Today!</p>

<p>Why do a series on &#8220;Achieving Everything You&#8217;ve Always Wanted?&#8221; I believe in people and the great potential that&#8217;s been placed in all of us. I want to provide resources for people to expand their lives and fulfill their dreams. With this series I&#8217;m hoping to examine principles to help us accomplish much more than we humanly thought possible. We&#8217;ll learn to think thoughts helping us to step into the realm of the impossible and achieve things we&#8217;ve only dreamed about.</p>
<p>Everything we build in our life requires components that must exist for success to happen. You have to have the tools. You can&#8217;t build a chicken coop with just a pile of lumber. There must be tools involved or it just won&#8217;t happen. This series is a tool to be used to help you build in your life, the best chicken coop possible. Your creator has given you the material. All you need now is the tools this series will offer you.</p>
<p>Every session will have dozens of practical ideas, techniques and principles to help you harness tremendous power. You gain success and happiness through the achievements you accomplish. Believe, really believe, you can move a mountain and you will. Not many people believe they can move mountains and as a result, they don&#8217;t. The key is to learn how to believe!</p>

<p>Most everyone in the world wishes to be a success. Yet, most find themselves struggling to label themselves as such. Success isn&#8217;t a &#8220;thing&#8221; that we bring into our homes that will stay with us forever. There aren&#8217;t any guidelines or set of rules that tell us when we have achieved that goal.</p>
<p>Just what does it mean to be successful? Isn&#8217;t it amazing how many people don&#8217;t know or have different definitions? For some, success is having a pile of money and a big house. Others find success in relationships  and having a good family.</p>
<p>Even though success has been identified in many ways, Albert Einstein once had an interesting comment on success. He said, ”Try not to become a person of success, but rather try to become a person of value.” This sums up well the direction we have taken in the past six weeks, understanding that success is the reward of a good character, becoming that person of value.</p>
<p>With this understanding, we know there is a process that must be followed if we expect to be rewarded in any area of life, and that process is summed up as follows:</p>
<p>Sow a thought and reap an action…</p>
<p>Sow an action and reap a habit…</p>
<p>Sow a habit and reap a character…</p>
<p>Sow a character and reap a destiny or your reward!</p>

<p>Your attitude consists of your collection of thoughts, you think every day. The combined effect of these thoughts form your opinion about yourself, your environment, your character and your future.</p>
<p>The wonderful thing about your attitude is, you&#8217;re in complete control of it. If your thoughts are negative, the way you speak, the way you carry yourself and your general disposition will be negative as well. If you develop a successful positive attitude, you will have done most of the work necessary towards building a successful positive character driven life. Positive changes in your life will flow from your positive attitudes.</p>
<p>People who have a successful character have trained themselves to have a positive assertive attitude, and this involves avoiding negativity at all costs. Negativity will slow down the creative process and prevent you from following through on your ideas. It also causes you to feel hopeless without any control of your life. A negative attitude is contagious, as it affects the people around you. It causes them feel your negativity and look at you as a pessimist rather than a successful person.</p>
<p>Therefore, it&#8217;s so necessary in our journey of a character driven life, for us to develop a positive attitude in all areas of our life. As Thomas Jefferson once said, ”Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude!”</p>

<p>Self attitude makes up our self-image, which is a composite of our relationships, experiences, natural abilities and personal appearance. Our success or failure in these individual components will determine the attitude we develop about who we are. This can help us excel in our positive personal development program, or cause us reject our self, by becoming overly concerned with pride and conceit.</p>
<p>Our creator doesn&#8217;t want our attitude to be wrong or out of proportion in any way. He fashioned us with the ability to become a new person, allowing us to develop the character necessary to maintain balance in all we do. In this process we can have our mind and our thought patterns renewed. This helps us to be in control of our actions, our habits and ultimately our destiny, which enables us to become a new person!</p>
<p>One of the most important goals we must achieve to be happy and successful in life, is the development of our own character. Our creator wants us to become people of excellence in every respect. He wants us to become the kind of person that others look up to and admire. He wants us to be the leaders and role models of personal excellence, for everyone touched by our lives.</p>
<p>The decisive factor in achieving the character and goals we hold in common, is the development of specific habits that lead us inevitably to the results we want to achieve. The good news is that we can be changed, all habits are learned. If we change what we do, we can change our habits and ultimately our destiny!</p>
<p>You wield the awesome power to choose your life and the person you want to be! Use it wisely.</p>

<p>Arthur S. Adams once wrote, &#8220;Good character is the quality which makes one dependable whether being watched or not.&#8221; This helps you to be truthful when it is to your advantage to be a little less than truthful. Good character helps you to be courageous when faced with great obstacles and endows you with the firmness of wise self-discipline!</p>
<p>A compass provides a fixed point of reference, which can be used to set a course from anywhere in the world. When in a difficult situation, our character works in much the same way. You can determine the correct course by the standards of character you&#8217;ve established in your life. This enables us to do what&#8217;s right by letting our good character be our guide. It&#8217;s as simple as that! So what are the principles or character traits that we must develop to have a character driven life?</p>
<p><strong>Some of the principles we need to learn and apply are the following:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>To be honest!</li>
<li>To have integrity!</li>
<li>To be dependable!</li>
<li>To be loyal!</li>
<li>To stay committed!</li>
<li>To have enthusiasm!</li>
<li>To be trustworthy!</li>
<li>And of course, there could be many others added to this&#8230;</li>
</ul>
<p>So how do you begin developing the principles of character? Start today by recognizing one area of your life lacking in discipline and put a plan together for tomorrow. Remember, having it all doesn&#8217;t mean having it all at once. It takes time, so concentrate on one day at a time!</p>
<p>A good character is the best tombstone. Those who love you and were helped by you, will remember you. Carve your name on hearts by your character and not just on marble!</p>

<p>Napoleon Hill once said, &#8220;Character is to man what carbon is to steel.&#8221; We&#8217;re born as diamonds in the rough, uncut, but with potential for great value. We must learn how to cut away undesirable attributes and expose the greatness that&#8217;s inside each of us.</p>
<p>This process shapes our character, which is formed by the choices we make, with each cut revealing the diamond we&#8217;re becoming. Many will say, &#8220;But Don, I don’t know what cuts to make?&#8221; I tell them, &#8220;that&#8217;s where our creator comes in, for He knows exactly what cuts to make.&#8221; He helps us to set aside our will and replaces it with His will. Our goal in this series is understanding how important this is, to be the people He designs us to be.</p>
<p>We need to understand, it&#8217;s not what we say or do that&#8217;s valuable in His eyes, but who we are. As John Luther once wrote, &#8220;Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent.&#8221; Talent, to some extent, is a gift, but good character, in contrast, isn&#8217;t. This means good character is something that has to be built, piece by piece, by thought, choice, courage and determination!</p>
<p>If we&#8217;re lacking in character, blaming our circumstances for our weaknesses, it&#8217;s like blaming the mirror for the way we look. Instead of casting the blame, we need to cast a new mold, by chipping away at our faults! Together we can do this!</p>

<p>I&#8217;m so excited about this new six week series! For many years I&#8217;ve been teaching principles and trying to motivate people to get involved in the plan that God has for them. During this time, I&#8217;ve been the one who&#8217;s learned a lesson or two.</p>
<p>The lesson I&#8217;ve learned, is very little can happen on the outside of a person&#8217;s life, if the inside hasn&#8217;t been changed! People need to &#8220;BE&#8221; before they will be able to &#8220;DO!&#8221; What needs to happen in a person&#8217;s life, for change to occur, is for character to be developed.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve personally seen hundreds, if not thousands of people with good intentions, about changing their lives. They fall, as victims, back into their old way of life, and become more discouraged than they were before the change began. Therefore, my plan is to put a stop to this, and in these next six weeks, work on a new plan. The plan is to establish an understanding of what godly character is, how important it is to receive this and how to get it activated in your life. This won&#8217;t be for the faint of heart, depending on the character that&#8217;s now present in your life. This could be the most challenging six weeks you&#8217;ve ever experienced.</p>
<p>Our heavenly Father uses physical things in this world to show us what the nature of man is like. The one area we&#8217;re going to be looking at these next six weeks, is the tree. A tree has roots, a trunk for strength and character, and branches for bearing fruit. The amazing message that our Lord has for us, is that no matter what kind of tree we are right now, we can be changed!</p>

<p>Desire is the extra! It&#8217;s the ingredient that turns a life of mediocrity into one of outstanding success. Desire is the &#8220;Extra&#8221; that makes the little differences and it&#8217;s the little differences that make big differences.</p>
<p>At my place of work the slogan is &#8220;212 Degrees.&#8221; When you have the water temperature going up to 211 degrees, you have hot or very hot water. It&#8217;s adding that one degree, making it 212 degrees, that causes the hot water to boil. This turns the hot water into steam, which has the power to propel a steamship around the world.</p>
<p>I want to tell you a story about a man and his desire. Ben Hogan could well be, one of, if not the greatest golfer that ever lived. Ben was in a near fatal car accident and was told by the doctors his professional career was over. His doctors hadn&#8217;t factored Ben&#8217;s will and desire into the equation.</p>
<p>As soon as Ben could walk again, he revived his dream of golfing greatness. He strengthened himself in all areas of his game. With his scarred legs he started out slowly hitting a few balls every day, increasing all the time. Eventually Ben rejoined the tour and moved back to the top rapidly.</p>
<p>Yes, it&#8217;s the desire that makes the difference between an average player and a champion! The question is, are you fanning your desire to reach the boiling point of your dreams? 211 Degrees isn&#8217;t enough!</p>
