Greetings Dear Friend!!

Whether we like it or not, consciously or unconsciously, we are growing everyday; and I don’t mean just physically, but also mentally. That is our body, mind and spirit. In fact, we are growing more mentally than physically . . . Just imagine the medical research that claims human beings may have up to 60,000 thoughts a day!

The challenge, though, is that since people can only see how we look physically, we often spend so much time thinking and worrying about how to maintain our physique that we don’t do enough to enrich our minds and souls. We spend more time on how not to look like a failure and how to impress others that we are often oblivious to What Matters Most. This is why we have declared 2008 the Year of Passionate Growth!

A Year of Passionate Growth!

We have declared 2008 a year for great people like you to MAKE EVERY EFFORT to fine tune your thinking, harness more positive thoughts, make more inclusive decisions, perform more impacting deeds, reach out to more people outside your regular circle of friends and families, and attain greater heights in your Personality, Leadership, Marriage, Parenting, Spirituality, Relationships, Health & Wellness, Academics, Finances, Career, Business and Life in general. And while God Himself is Ever Ready to see you through this exciting New Year, we have also made our plans to ensure that you get the Life Coaching and Business Coaching that you need to Make This Happen, whether through one-on-one sessions or any of our numerous Seminars and Workshops.



Passionate Growth means that you have identified the areas that you need to grow in, written them down, and developed plans to Make Things Happen. It means that you think, talk and practice the associated goals and objectives passionately. It means that your close friends and families are aware of your plans and determination to make these Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Timely (S.M.A.R.T.) changes in your life. It means that you will be purchasing books and attending seminars that would only help you gain more knowledge and encouragement relating to your goals and objectives. Passionate Growth means that you have identified a Life Coach or Business Coach to HELP you better identify the GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES in your Life and Business, provide you with the consistent ENCOURAGEMENT to maintain a FORWARD momentum, and hold you ACCOUNTABLE to ensure SUCCESSFUL completion.

If you are yet to identify and write down your 2008 goals and objectives, give it some serious thought, for in the words of Tracy Brinkmann, “You must have an aim; a vision; a goal. The person sailing through life with no destination or ‘port-of- call’, every wind is the wrong wind”. For your convenience and personal accountability, we are offering you a free Goals and Objectives Template just by clicking here. Down it, complete it and post it on the wall in your bedroom where you will see it everyday, for those who write down their goals and objectives are half way to completion. This I know from my experience as a Life Coach and Business Coach, who work with numerous people all over the world in their effort to attain success in different areas of their lives and businesses.

How to Make Things Happen!

With a passion to move myself, family and business to the next level of greatness and contentment like never before, I have not only identified the growth opportunities in these areas, but also documented them on the Template of Goals and Objectives, and engaged specific family members and friends to consistently encouragement me to maintain a forward momentum, and hold me accountable to ensure successful completion. I have identified and even registered for the enriching seminars that I will be attending this year, planned the seminars and workshops that I will be facilitating for those of you that are eager for Passionate Growth, and purchased tens of books that I will be consuming throughout 2008. And most importantly, I have committed my plans to God and will pray about them continually; for in the words of King Solomon, “Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and your plans will succeed.”

In January 2007, we published an article titled, "The 5 Steps of Making Things Happen - why some people accomplish way much more than others", which, according to the numerous feedbacks that we received from readers worldwide, helped and continues to help people to realize their goals, dreams and desires. In the words of one of our subscribers, "This is one of the best documents on the subject of goals that I have read in a long time. I like your simple, logical flow but packed with solid practical advice. This could not have been covered any better. I am keeping this one for a long time and sending to some friends who will totally enjoy and appreciate this."

If you aspire to be even greater this New Year 2008, we recommend it again, whether you initially read it or not. Besides, we updated it with more thought-provoking exhortations. For the first step to greatness is a remarkably strong desire to know; then, the courage to act; time to reflect; and determination to consistently match forward no matter what. This is how great things were made to happen, how many people continue to accomplish way much more than others. To read this article, click here.

Life Lessons For February!

In February, we will be releasing another exhorting article, which will help you to better understand the common things that deter people from achieving their goals; things that, as a Life Coach and Business Coach, we have successfully helped our clients to conquer in their characters and routines. As you get exhorted and inspired by ‘Making Things Happen’, start thinking of those things that may easily engulf and entrap you in your pursuit of fulfillment; those things that may easily erode your desire for greater accomplishments; those detrimental flaws in your character and daily routine that may slow you down while a New Year and a few other determined people pass you by. These are what we will be helping you to conquer in our exhorting article next month.
