Take the Leap from Knowing to Doing

WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN KNOWING & DOING?
Knowledge without application is meaningless information.

WHEN YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO, YOU HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO DO IT
The longest distance in the world is between what we know to do and what we actually do with what we know.  The greatest gap in our life is between knowing and doing.  A wise author with a great sense of humour wrote a book entitled, “If we all did what we know to do, we would all be skinny, rich and happy!”  It’s a truth!  Getting out of denial and facing reality must be a decision,  if we sincerely want to experience fulfilling change in our lives.  It is having the courage to come face to face with where you are right now, and armed with that truth, you can then apply common sense to the situation, and establish a plan to take you onto the next level of desired change.

One of the reasons people stay in the destructive cycle of debt or bad relationships, or they continue eating unhealthily or not having an exercise routine, is that they choose to live in denial, and hope it will all smooth out along the way, instead of facing head-on what needs to be challenged and changed.  It is the pain-pain-pleasure principle!  You discover, for example that you have gained 10 kgs over the past year.  That is painful!  However the truth is, it is going to take another type of pain to get back into shape.  This is the pain of eating less and choosing healthy foods, starting an exercise programme and most importantly, sticking to it.  You will only be able to pay the price of this pain if the pleasure is really worth it.  The pleasure will be felt in having greater confidence in your appearance, wearing clothes two or three sizes smaller, experiencing the elation that comes with the ability of disciplining yourself and being able to harness those cravings.  This pleasure then becomes a way of life.  Making the right choices today means no regrets tomorrow.  Personal growth and development is not an option.  Don’t wait for crisis to force you to bring about change in your life.  You make the decision to design the kind of life you want to live, and with persistence and diligence, you will reap the harvest that comes from sowing the seed of good quality choice.
WORK YOUR PLAN

No idea is ever executed without the plan first being laid.  Yet having a plan and not putting action to it is equally as ineffective.  Focus on what is really important for your life and start with the obvious.  What do you want to achieve with that which is really important to you?  How committed are you to living in the outcome you so desire?  What is your why, your reasons for wanting to achieve these plans?  Your why must be strong enough to push you through the opposition that will come as you pursue your ideals.  Are you willing to pay the price, and are you prepared to do whatever it takes?  There are no shortcuts to achieving the meaningful things in life.  Everything nice has its price.  The end result may take longer than you had anticipated, but stay the course.  Never give up on your ideals and dreams.  There is a harvest if you do not faint in the process.  Let your reward be what others thought to be impossible.  Face reality and choose the life you want!

"Life is too short. Grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.


Laugh when you can, apologize when you should and let go of what you can't change. Love deeply and forgive quickly. Take chances. Give everything and have no regrets. Life is too short to be unhappy. You have to take the good with the bad.


Smile when you're sad, love what you got, and always remember what you had. Always forgive, but never forget. Learn from your mistakes but never regret. People change, and things go wrong but always remember... life goes on!"

Great advice to shift your life, your business and your future.

Hear what this delegate to the Seminar had to say...

1 & 2 July 2011

Where to begin, Wow I’m inspired all around. If I can tell and say it so very loud and proudly that I finally get to be up close and personal with Angelique herself to see who is behind all such creative uniqueness.  I won a a ticket to attend this seminatr and it was my best winnings ever.  Indeed my Giant has awakened and is rising. I was blessed to be part of the seminar and I had an upliftment from being in the room with all the ladies who had different stories to tell as well as the two days made me realize that there is LIFE to be lived, after all is said and done,  and that every situation is there to make me grow and conquer even more in spite of  problems and circumstances.
It’s true when they say dynamite comes in a small package. Angelique is that dynamite indeed.  Born to be a leader, because she is using her DNA Gift to its fullest and it’s so real.  I’m alive with possibilities and note this down; the best is yet to come as this is just my beautiful beginning.  The future is in our hands and it’s determined by today's effort and choices.  The Bible says, that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of a power, and of love, and a sound mind.
Many Thanks - Nonkululeko Ayanda Tshangela

Relishing the Changing Seasons

It will benefit us to learn to make use of the different seasons in our lives.  Every season has a reason and a purpose.  The changing seasons in our lives affords us the opportunity to take time to reflect.  Changing seasons cannot be ignored.  There are no guarantees in life, but there is always hope.  The hope lies in the seed of potential found in the process of change, if we will yield to it and do not circumvent the process.  Change always brings with it a possibility curve.  The secret is found in focusing on the possibility and not the whirlwind that change often seems to bring with it.

LIVING IN THE MOMENT

To stand tall in a falling world, it is imperative to your sense of well being that you learn to live in the present, to extract the most out of the moment.  This moment is all you are 100% assured of.  Doing it right today means no regrets tomorrow.  Finding the time to do something right in this moment, means you don't have to find time in your already compressed schedule, to do it right the second time around.  Doing it with excellence in the moment, enables you to enter the next moment with a greater level of confidence.  Exiting this moment in victory opens the door to enter the next moment in victory.  Add all those victorious moments together, and you will know fulfillment and great joy as you live your strongest life now!

Making the transition from Client Service to giving your Client a Superior Experience

The world of business is tough and it is getting tougher. As technology advances the need for the human touch increases.  Clients are looking for more than good service.  They are thirsting for a superior experience.  People will forget what you said.  They will forget what you did.  But they will never forget how you made them feel.
