Motivation On Mondays

Remember times when its all gone right and people have made it look so easy? The "naturals" .
The truth is that even though they have a gift without the training and perseverance they are nothing.
The truth is that we are all naturals at something
The truth is we need the drive motivation and desire to excel
 

This video remindes me of the power of words. How would your day be different if you chose different words?

Some times things just don't go the way we planned.

The way I see it the only time you can actually fail is when you stop trying.

In the area of motivating kids and providing an inspiration to all of there is no one greater then Nick.

Have a look at this video. Then give yourself some quiet time to think about your life and a pen and paper to write down your commitments and what you are going to differently. I Guarantee it will change your life

Don't feel like putting in that bit extra, got an excuse?



I had my own real life version of this when I was about 20 years old.

I had a car accident and a whiplash injury, I was going to a rehab hospital and having physio for 3 weeks trying to get rid of the headaches that just wouldn't go away.

The physio room was just beside the rehab pool and one day a double amputee came up to the pool in his wheel chair. He slid out of his chair and into the pool. He did 20 laps, way faster than I could, and he did it with no legs! Then he then pulled himself out of the pool, back into his wheel chair and off he went. At that moment I took a good hard look at myself and walked out of the rehab unit. A few days later the headaches were gone and I had a new perspective on feeling sorry for myself.  

Sometimes we wonder why people do what they do.

When someone is short with you, or flips out over something small, it gives us an insight into their lives. So many people are working in jobs or doing things that just don't satisfy their real needs, so many people feel there is no real purpose to what they spend most of their waking life doing.

This clip always reminds me of why I love small business and makes me grateful for the opportunities that I've had.

Enjoy,

The Power of One Man (Juan Mann). 

 I’ve followed the progress of this video for a few years since I first saw it and checking on it now it has over 67,450,000 views on You Tube and countless millions more spread on other video sites and blogs.

The clip and the story behind it gave the Sydney band Sick Puppies international exposure and a recording contract along with starting a world wide movement, but also reminds me of the power incredible power of a simple act. 
 


Channel 10 ran a story on the success of the original you tube video and how it launched the international career of the band Sick Puppies. This started a movement that spread around the world proving not only the power of the internet, but the power of One Man to make a difference.
