L.I.F.E. - Growing the Person



L. Learning
I. Impacting
F. Friendship building
E. Experiencing
  • How can we encourage one another and build one another up?
  • How can each of us change to a life grounded in friendship building?
  • How can people who do not have a habit of reading and a drive to be educated, be encouraged to do so?
  • How can we encourage those who are not comfortable with sharing their experiences to do so?
Learning is as much about growing friendships and community that produce relationships that last. Where we can impact each other with real information and we learn to be accountable to each other (not for each other). With learning, it is as important to grow friendships numerically as we ourselves are growing personally. To do otherwise is a waste of energy and time.
So what is L.i.f.e.?
  • Life is not a university course. It allows and encourages the sharing of life experiences in light of the knowledge we have through education and relationships.
  • Life is not a programme but a lifestyle. This is who I am, my friends, my interests, and what consumes my time.
  • Life is simple to implement. It requires a commitment to use the knowledge we have and to be accountable to each other to do this.
  • Life is reality based. It creates regular opportunities to build relationships in a natural and non threatening manner.
Start today!
There is a saying – I went out to find friends and they were not there;
I went out to be a friend and friends were everywhere.
Life is too precious to waste
Start now!
My call is not for everybody else – it is for me. The person who has the greatest impact on my life is me – and I do not intent to waste it.
Your life is your call!

Objectivity – Changing Habits

The nature of the entrepreneur will put you in unprecedented situations constantly Past experiences; - most of the decisions we make on a daily basis are based upon our previous experiences. The reactive observation, “That looks off - I was hurt once - don’t touch it.” This is really a rather simplistic decision to a situation. The idea of understanding, evaluating and deciding our decision making process, is quite possibly one of the most effective, yet difficult things to do. We are always being confronted with decisions, both big and small. These decisions usually carry with them some sort of emotional process that is important to us as individuals and are like an emotional compass that helps our decision process. We need to cultivate a discipline for making good decisions that seem contrary to our emotions or our initial thoughts based on past experience and feelings. Sometimes though, I find myself so far out of my comfort zone that I don’t know what to do and with no prior experi...

We remember those who fought for our freedom

Australian troops at Milne Bay World War 2 - Papuan campaign We remember those who fought for our freedom Australian forces defeated the Japanese attempt to capture the strategic Milne Bay area in August 1942.

This was the first notable Japanese land defeat and raised Allied morale across the Pacific Theatre.

BELIEFS

If we want to understand what we believe we need only to look at what we are involved in. I know that amongst successful business people they talk about things like leadership, innovation, persistence and longevity. I know that all of these are important and I feel and speak passionately about these things often. How ever to achieve in any of these areas it is our beliefs that will set our values and our character will be the example of theses. We all believe something – what we believe is important to success. Belief is not a gift – it is learned from others – it is something we can teach others. We can give someone a dollar, but it soon will be spent and be in the pocket of another. Teach someone something valuable they can believe and they set a value they can use to reproduce that dollar. We can give presents, compliments, advice and embrace one another in moments of despair. But to teach another a right belief is a commodity for which time passed, or circumstance can never take aw...
