Dear John,

Focus on what you CAN do, not what you can't do.

Feeling overwhelmed? Focus on what you can do. No good comes

from spending energy on the things you can't do or have no control over.

Simple? Yes.

Easy? No.

Here is an example of positive, focused energy in a crisis.

Crisis - I just lost my job.

Instead of imagining all of the things that "could" happen with losing

your job, do this.

1. Mind shift - this change in job status has given me the go-ahead to

create a brand-new future.

2. Create a vision - take some time to determine where you want to

be in one year. What is your ideal scenario?

3. Break it down - what needs to be done today? This week? This

month, in order to achieve my vision?

4. Start now - with what you can do!

If you need some help turning a crisis into an opportunity, I highly suggest

our Performance Planner - it's a step-by-step system on how to turn a

dream into a goal, and it gives you one year of tracking that will help you

achieve your dreams faster than you thought possible. Get it here.

You are Born To Win, so go ahead and Live To Win!
