Champions Are Of Good Cheer
The great ones carefully create world-class results by consciously constructing every thought with a sunny disposition from within. The world class is of good cheer by conscious choice. They are aware that their thoughts are the creators of their circumstances. Amateurs, on the other hand, create mediocre circumstances inadvertently by the thoughts they in particular entertain which includes longing and lack.
Understanding that their inner world creates and determines their outer world and champions embrace the role of the successful, fulfilled and happy human being until the part becomes them. In order to attract extraordinary success, fulfillment and happiness they must first become these exact things. Like attracts like, success breeds success, happiness manifests happiness. We don’t attract what we desire…we attract what we are. This statement alone is why the world class consciously chooses to be of good cheer.*

Understanding Men Part 12 – The things you need to ask to be happy, healthy, and satisfied around SEX!
The 7 things you need to ask your partner about sex
From Alison Armstrong
- What sex provides for you?
Don’t assume you know this about your partner or that they know this about you. We all assume it’s the same for each other or the same as for much younger men and women. - What fills your “Sexy Tank?”
What puts you in your body and open to physical intimacy? - Your “Pumpkin Hours?”
When are the times that a request for sex from your partner would cause resentment ~ for example because of lost sleep or another focus? - Your “Signals?”
How do you indicate the desire for sex to your partner? If you’ve been getting turned down, he might not even be receiving your signal! - Your “Desserts?”
What will you “eat” even when you’re not hungry? What is always a great offer? - Your “Jump Starts?”
Every man and woman has words, phrases, tones of voice and/or ways to be touched that jump start a dead battery and make you want to have sex NOW! - Your “End Game?”
What do you need in the minutes, hours and days after sex? To feel appreciated, respected or loved? It’s okay to need a phone call, even when you’re married!
Now, after reading this list, you can see it all boils down to communication. A lot of women may be embarrassed, or feel like their man might think they’re “dirty” for being so open about their needs. I recently talked to a few of my male friends, and I can assure you that this is NOT the case! Men love pleasing their women, and not only will they be quite happy to get some instruction from the most beautiful women in the world, their chosen one, but they’ll also find it really sexy that you’re interested in sex with them and that you want it to be the best it can be for both of you. So, give it a try, next time you’re alone and in an intimate setting. Start with “you know what really turns me on?” and I promise it will go well!!
Understanding Men – Part 11 – Understanding what it means to be bored
Sometimes, we don’t quite understand what it means to a man to be bored. As women, we are naturally equipped with that diffuse awareness that keeps us going, and keeps our minds occupied. Men tend to commit themselves to a single thing, with focus, and if they don’t find something worthy of thinking about or doing, they’ll focus quite literally on nothing. They’re quite a bit more picky about what they’ll choose to pay attention to. When a man says that he is bored, he is telling you that he hasn’t found anything worth paying attention to. Since he’s only going to focus on one thing, he wants to make sure that what he chooses is worthy of his life, and that it is important to him.
If you can, find something for him to do, something worthy of his attention. Do not to think about things for him to do or think about what would benefit you, but rather try to help him find something that is worthy of him. He is someone important in your life, and your spending time with him means you admire and care for him. Help him to find something that you know is worthy of him. Give him an opportunity to be your hero and be proud of himself, too.
An Obituary printed in the London Times – Interesting and sadly rather true.
Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend,Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape. He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as:
- Knowing when to come in out of the rain;
- Why the early bird gets the worm;
- Life isn’t always fair;
- and maybe it was my fault.Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don’t spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge).
His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6-year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.
Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children.
It declined even further when schools were required to get parental consent to administer sun lotion or an aspirin to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.
Common Sense lost the will to live as the churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.
Common Sense took a beating when you couldn’t defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.
Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to re alise that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.
Common Sense was preceded in death, by his parents, Truth and Trust, by his wife, Discretion, by his daughter, Responsibility, and by his son, Reason.
He is survived by his 4 stepbrothers;

Most People Don’t Like Change…I Crave It.
|
I subscribe to a weekly newsletter from an expatriot who’s living life powerfully. He sent me this story to rimind me how important it is to keep fluid and go with the flow. Most people loath change but I’ve embraced change so much that now I crave it. I get complete satisfaction and fulfillment from keeping things fresh and pushing my comfort levels by learning new things and changing things up often.
I owe this way of being to my ongoing financial success. I was heavily into real estate and when that industry took a downward spiral, I shifted to a completely different occupation in internet advertising. If I would have resisted, and stayed in the real estate market I would have been dragged down with it. Instead, things are going well despite the big economic downturn most people are facing right now. In order to be successful and powerful, I think it’s imparative that you get really comfortable with change yourself. The following story is a good example of why it’s so important.
 By the late summer of 1939, Hitler’s forces had absorbed Austria and Czechoslovakia into his growing empire, and Germany’s military was massed at the Polish border clearly preparing for invasion.
In an astonishing display of perhaps the greatest complacency in the history of the modern world, however, Polish people sat lazing about their lakes, beaches, and riverbanks worrying about more pressing matters– like how to beat the summer heat. In September of that year, German troops easily vanquished the Polish army, and Krakow became the colonial seat of the occupying forces. Almost immediately, under the direction of the German SS, anyone who posed a threat was rounded up and imprisoned. This included over 180 Polish university professors and many businessmen. Krakow, of course, is also very close to two of the main concentration camps used during the German occupation, nearby Oswiecim (Auschwitz) and Plaszow. The worst part is that, even after the war was over, Poland merely swapped fascism for Stalinism. Overall, the country was shrouded in brutal totalitarian control for half a century; undoubtedly, the Nazi invasion of Poland set off a chain of events that would forever affect the lives of all Poles. It’s true that no one had a crystal ball back then… but it would certainly stand to reason that with Hitler knocking at your door, you would probably want to have an escape plan. Even more prudently, perhaps to have already executed it. Many Poles did just that; they spent the preceding seasons liquidating assets, stocking up on gold, and getting their travel documents in order. By the time Hitler came to town, many of the smart ones were already gone. My guess is that the ones who left were probably ridiculed by their peers as “crazy”, or “fringe”, or “out of touch”, or my personal favorite, “unpatriotic.” It’s as if they had a solemn national duty to stay, get roped up and waste away in a concentration camp for the ‘greater good’ of Poland. For those who escaped before the war, many of them went on to build new lives in places like the United States, Brazil, and Argentina. They prioritized freedom and opportunity, and they went to the best places that were safest for themselves and their families. I’ve met a businessman here (I’ll call him “Jarek”) who I think has the best story to sum this up; when Jarek’s father was just a boy in Krakow, the family saw the warning signs and decided to leave town. This was 1938. Jarek’s grandfather owned a successful bakery at the time, yet he felt that he would rather start over somewhere else than risk the safety of his family by living in a police state. They sold everything– the house, livestock, and business… and everyone else thought they were crazy. Within six months, the family was in Curitiba, Brazil; Jarek’s grandfather soon established a new bakery that eventually became a thriving business. Jarek’s father grew up in Curitiba and integrated into the local culture, yet he maintained his roots since there were many other Poles who followed them there. 30-years later, the face of Brazil started to change. By the mid-1960s, the whole of Latin America was becoming a military dictatorship. Once again, the family decided to get out while they could and head towards better opportunity; they sold the business, liquidated their assets, and this time headed towards the United States. Jarek was just a baby when the family made this move. He grew up in a Polish neighborhood of Chicago, spoke Polish at home, and married a Polish girl from his neighborhood. He was working as a young real estate professional in the Chicago suburbs when the Berlin Wall fell, at which point he began making more frequent trips to Poland to visit his family’s homeland. In his subsequent trips throughout the following years, Jarek began feeling like there was more and more opportunity in Poland; in 2003, fearful of what would happen in Chicago because of the “War on Terror,” Jarek moved his family full-circle back to Poland because he felt like it was the safest, most opportunity-rich place for him to be. He may have been right; his business is booming, and the family really enjoys the life they have built for themselves here. To listen to him talk, though, they would happily leave and go somewhere else if the right circumstances were presented. “My most important obligation is to my family,” he told me. “I will go wherever I can provide the best life for them, whether that is Poland, America, Brazil, or anywhere else. Nothing lasts forever, you have to expect that these things will change from time to time. People have to learn to change as well, to not get rooted in ideology.” I think Jarek has an interesting point; I’d really like to hear from you, though, what do you think? |
