MESSAGE
FROM THE PRESIDENT |
|
|
|
 |
Earlier this month, I attended the
Awards Gala for the Phoenix Chapter of
NAWBO (National Association of Women
Business Owners). We celebrated
and acknowledged some highly successful
women who had accomplished amazing
things over the year.
Additionally, I was introduced as the
incoming President for the Phoenix
Chapter, a role I'm quite excited about
fulfilling.
Next year, the
chapter will celebrate it's 25th
Anniversary! |
|
 This
is Robin Orchard, current President,
'pinning' me as I'm holding hands with
Cammie Bailey, one of our Past
Presidents. You can view more photos of
the event
here.
This week, the new
Board of Directors held our strategic
planning session and I invited some of
the 'old timers' to provide a historical
perspective and talk about 'from whence
we came'. In some organizations,
the New Guard ignores the lessons from
the past and then commits mistakes that
could have been avoided.
Our new Board
will build upon the successes of the
past while venturing into new
territories. As I said, I'm
excited about this opportunity and even
more excited having had the first
meeting of the new Board of Directors.
They are full of ideas, enthusiasm and
commitment.
 It's
important however, not to get consumed
by one's professional life. So,
this weekend my husband, Karl and I
attended a baby shower for friends
expecting their first child. I'm
getting up there in years, so it's been
a long time since I've attended a
shower. We played several
traditional baby games and went "ooo"
and "ahh" as Janeth opened all of their
gifts, after which time Daddy Stuart and
Mommy cut their first baby cake.
Read
this week's
article to learn about the
importance of staying focused on what's
important.

ARTICLE – STAYING FOCUSED ON THE
'BIG GOAL' |
|
|
|
One of the
topics I speak about is what I refer
to as your Dream Destination.
It's not a desirable vacation spot.
Rather, it's where your career and
life would be 5 - 10 years in the
future if things had gone far beyond
your wildest dreams.
Imagine that
for a minute.
You've
accomplished more than you thought
possible. You're happier and
more fulfilled than you've ever
been. The people around
you...in fact your entire world,
feels joyful and light.
What's that
like for you?
The reason I
ask is that I know how critical it
is to be keenly aware of where
you're going with your life and your
career.
As Dionne
Warwick sang back in the 60's,
What's it
all about, Alfie?
Is it just for the moment we
live?
|
It's not! Although
it's easy to get consumed and pulled into
the day-to-day chaos and fire-fighting of
our jobs.
In the moment, there's
'stuff' to do; meetings to attend; deadlines
to meet; accomplishments to make.
What makes all this
'stuff' more bearable is remembering why
you're doing it in the first place.
Is it so that you can
create enough financial security so that you
don't have to work so hard? Would you
then spend more time with family? Travel the
world? Write that book?
I was walking toward
the mountain near my home Monday. I
kept my gaze near the mountain top.
While it seemed close on one hand, as much
as I walked, it didn't seem to get much
closer. Keeping my focus there
however, made me forget I was walking up
hill. It took my attention off the
effort of the incline. I didn't notice
I was breathing hard.
All I could think
about were the crevices, cacti, sagebrush
and other features of the mountain that I
could see. I imagined myself there, on
the mountain top, looking out over the
valley. I felt big, powerful, light
and free.
That's the value of
having a Big Goal and keeping your attention
on it. It makes the drudgery,
tediousness and challenges of the present
moment less irritating because you know WHY
you're doing them. Without that
motivation, there's just too much
work.
Have a big goal. Know your "why".
Make sure your team knows their "why", both
individually and for the team. You'll
have more fun and probably get 'there'
faster.

Goal with me at
