This is Kenneth O’Neal. I am reaching out to you with a message of encouragement and hope during this challenging time; a moment in time we will not soon forget. We are in this together and I want to share some ideas I believe will allow you to become STRONGER. Some of you know I am Ziglar Legacy Certified Coach and Trainer. In addition, I am trained and educated as a former CPA. I believe our thinking and our attitude is more important today than ever before; the writings and philosophy of Zig Ziglar lives on today through his son, Tom Ziglar and the Ziglar Family. I am sharing several concepts to benefit you in these difficult times.
Over the last few weeks, I have been reflecting on our current situation with the COVID–19 virus, the falling stock market, the shut-down of sports and the cancellation of many events. Zig Ziglar had a great quote which Tom Ziglar made a small but significant adjustment. The quote is as follows:
“Expect the best; Prepare for the worst; Maximize on what comes”.
Allow me to fully explain.
Expect the best is all about your mindset and your belief system. Focus on solutions and the things you can do. Choose your mental input wisely. Use your extra time to develop yourself and your business. A positive mindset has great health benefits. A negative mindset creates fear and harms your immune system.
Prepare for the worst is to use wisdom in your travel and social interactions. In preparing, talk to yourself and tell your mind you are going to do all the things you have been putting off. Focus on the things you can do, instead of the things you cannot do. Wash your hands.
Maximize on what comes because nobody knows what tomorrow or next week or next month will bring us. Create the right mindset and focus on serving others. Be intentional about growing and developing yourself, and you will be positioned to make a significant difference allowing you to have a major impact in this world.
I am here to help if you need anything. I can be reached by telephone at 830-285-7010 or by email merger@windstream.net. In fact, I am happy to set up a complimentary call with you to identify specific strategies to help you become STRONGER during this time. Let me know how I can help.
