2. The Champion Within ArticleAs We Sow, So Shall We Harvest by Denis Waitley (excerpted from The Seeds of Greatness Treasury)Our true rewards in life will depend on the quality and amount of contribution we make. From the Scriptures, to science, to psychology, to business, the documentation is the same. “As we sow, we reap.’ Life is an unfailing boomerang. What we throw out, will come back full circle. The way we can build self-reliance is to recognize the number of alternative choices we have in a free society. And for every choice we make, there is a consequence or reward of that decision that we must acknowledge as our responsibility. God´s Law of Cause and Effect is forever the ruler. During debriefing interviews, returning POW´s from the wars in which we have fought during the past century said that what they missed most of all was their freedom of choice. There are two primary choices in our lives: to accept conditions as they exist or to accept the responsibility for changing them. To attain emotional security, each of us must learn to develop two critical capabilities: the ability to live with uncertainty, and the ability to delay immediate gratification in favor of long-range goals. Losers let life happen to them. Winners make it happen for themselves and others. Losers engage in pleasurable activities, with no purpose or result in mind. Losers try to escape from their fears and drudgery with activities that are tension- relieving. Winners are motivated by their desires toward activities that are goal-achieving. A number of research studies during the past decade indicate that the happiest, most well-adjusted individuals are those who believe they have a strong measure of control over their lives. They choose more appropriate responses to what occurs and they stand up to inevitable changes and daily setbacks with less apprehension. They learn from their past mistakes, rather than reinforce or repeat them. They spend time taking action in the present, rather than fearing what might happen in the future. To be self-reliant adults, we need to get some guidelines: Be different, if it means higher personal and professional standards. Be different, if it means being more gracious and considerate to others. Be different, if it means being cleaner, neater and better groomed than the group. Be different, if it means putting more time and effort into all you do. And be different, if it means taking the calculated risk. The greatest risk in life is to wait for and depend upon others for your own security. The greatest security is to plan and act, and take the risk that will ultimately ensure your personal freedom and independence. Denis Waitley

Seeds of Greatness by Denis Waitley(These quotes were taken from Denis Waitley's The Seeds of Greatness Treasury)Life is a magnificent fertile garden plot given you to till, to plant, to nurture and to reap from. What you grow in your garden is your choice. How you respond to the process along the way also is your choice. Your garden will never be in a state of perfection. It will always be in transition. With the end of each season is the anticipation of the next. No one season is the best, not even harvest. It has its special joys and frequent challenges, just as each of the other seasons. To everything there is a season and place under heaven. There is a magnificent rhythm and cycle to life. Seed to sprout. Sprout to bloom. Bloom to blossom. Blossom to fruit. Fruit to seed. Success is a process. It cycles again and again. How you use the cycles to produce what benefits your life and the lives of others is up to you.
4. The Winner's Edge Coaching TipsIn keeping with our "Thanksgiving theme" in this issue, I want to encourage you to make a thanks list. Write "I am thankful for the following" at the top of a page, then three columns for People, Things and Other. List all the people and things for which you are grateful. In the Other column, consider items we tend to take for granted, such as freedom, health, and opportunity. Read your list twice a day for a week and discuss it with associates and significant family members. When disappointment clamors for attention, review your blessings and your thanks list. Teach the members of your team to like what they have rather than constantly trying to have what they like. This is an excellent reminder for us all -- whether we are facing trials and challenges or if everything is "working" and going well in our lives. Keeping a thanks list throughout the year will help us focus on the positive things that are happening in our lives and help us get through those challenging times with more hope and encouragement. To being more thankful everyday! -- DW
