1. This Week's Jumpstart
1. This Week's Jumpstart It is never too late to communicate. Always be the first to forgive and say "I'm sorry." Don't wait for fear of what the response might be. Remember Parkinson's latest law: "The vacuum created by a failure to communicate will quickly be filled with rumor, misrepresentation, doubt and poison."In the communication process, knowledge is not always wisdom; sensitivity is not always accuracy and sympathy is not always understanding. Empathy is never assuming anything until you have, "walked a mile in the other person's moccasins." Take full responsibility for success in the communication process. As a listener, take full responsibility for hearing the meaning behind what the others are trying to say. As a talker, take full responsibility for being certain that they understand what you are saying. Never meet anyone halfway in your relationships. Always give 100 percent. This week make the call or have the conversation you have been putting off or dreading. -- Denis Waitley
2. The Champion Within
Article When he was two years old, this adopted child of two
college professors suddenly and inexplicably stopped
growing, and his health started to fail. A team of doctors
gave him six months to live after they diagnosed him as
suffering from a rare disease that inhibits digestion and
nutrients in food. Intravenous feedings of vitamins and
supplements allowed him to regain his strength, but his
growth was permanently stunted. This article is excerpted from Denis Waitley's The Seeds of
Greatness - The Value-Based Family Enrichment Program for
21st Century Leaders! Denis is offering this package at a
special discount for this week only! For more information or

Denis Waitley Roots and Wings (A Child's Bedtime Song) If I had two wishes, I know what they would be I'd wish for Roots to cling to, and Wings to set me free; Roots of inner values, like rings within a tree, and Wings of independence to seek my destiny. Roots to hold forever to keep me safe and strong, To let me know you love me, when I've done something wrong; To show me by example, and help me learn to choose, To take those actions every day to win instead of lose. Just be there when I need you, to tell me it's all right, To face my fear of falling when I test my wings in flight; Don't make my life too easy, it's better if I try, And fail and get back up myself, so I can learn to fly. If I had two wishes, and two were all I had, And they could just be granted, by my Mom and Dad; I wouldn't ask for money or any store-bought things, The greatest gifts I'd ask for are simply Roots and Wings. 4. The Winner's Edge Coaching Tips Welcome to our current coaching topic for the next three issues. As I stated in the last edition, we cannot teach our children self-esteem. We can only help them discover it within themselves by adding positive marks and strokes on their slates. All positive motivation is rooted in self-esteem – the development of which, just as with other skills takes practice. We are looking at self-esteem as a four-legged chair. Last issue we covered the first leg of the "Self-esteem" chair -- a sense of belonging. The next leg is: A Sense of Individual Identity The second leg, which complements the sense of belonging, is a sense of individual identity. No human being is exactly like another, not even an identical twin. We are all unique combinations of talents and traits that never existed before and will never exist again in quite the same package. (This explains why most parents believe their children came from different planets!) Observe your children as they grow and play. Watch their learning styles. Notice what they love to do in their free time. Help them discover their unique positive talents and help nurture them into skills. Report cards don't necessarily measure talents. They often are a measure only of discipline, memory and attention span. Look for ways to help your children develop their own sense of individual identity and re-reinforce their healthy self-esteem! -- DW
