Overcoming a demon of Leadership and Education

We all have those days where we look at our to-do list and cringe because the tasks seem insurmountable. But if we could turn to quick motivations, we might be able to turn the thought process around and get more done.
You can set yourself up for success by having quick motivators, literally within a few inches from where you are sitting. There are also techniques that can help you overcome overwhelming feelings so you will always have the motivation you need to get through any difficult situation.
Using Quick Motivation Tips to Move You Forward
One of the best ways to find motivation in times of stress is to break down the tasks into manageable chunks. Once you do this, suddenly the list won't seem as insurmountable as you once thought. Look at your task list, determine what needs to get done first, and build momentum from there. You'll find motivation by simply getting things done. You can do it all with a smile on your face and a bounce in your step! This is the way that most of us would like to live our lives, but without quick motivations, it can be difficult to do.
Using Positive Affirmations to Find the Motivation You Need
Many people find quick motivation in positive affirmations. Positive affirmations help you feel confident in your own skin so you can accomplish more and grow as an individual. Instead of allowing a negative internal dialogue to keep you from getting things done, you can use positive affirmations to help you stay focused every step of the way.
This will work even on days when you feel like nothing is going well and you can't possibly get everything done.
You can start saying your affirmations when you start to feel negative about something you have to do, or if you sense negativity creeping into your work. You'll be surprised at how quickly your whole mindset will change, if you are open to it.
Motivational Desktop Wallpapers, Yet Another Fast Motivator!
Another helpful tool is something most people would never consider: motivational desktop wallpapers. Motivational wallpapers can help you escape from the pressures that swirl around you so you can refresh your mind. The power of positive imagery can truly alter the course of your day!
Think about how many times a day you see your computer desktop. Are you getting enough motivation? Motivational wallpapers are one of the quickest ways to motivate yourself to push ahead.
With motivational wallpapers you always can have a motivational picture, quote, or both fingertips during the day. During those moments when you feel like pulling your hair out in frustration, you can minimize everything else on your screen and lose yourself in that picture or quote. You'd be surprised to find how motivational this method really can be! If you are looking for additional motivation, you can take some of your wallpaper images and quotes and turn them into screen savers. Your computer can be transformed from your enemy into your motivator. It's your choice!

Education and Leadership is about looking through everything and seeing reality

Watching the pep rally known as this week's political convention one can not help but have flashbacks when hearing about the remarkable job that Bill Clinton did with his speech. His delivery and content has been given rave reviews from all avenues of the media and from politicians far and wide. It is being liken to some of the great speeches of all times such as ones given by Lincoln, JFK , Churchill and others. Historians and politicians along with the media are astonished with the job he did changing from one who over the past few weeks and months had said harsh things about Obama and his credentials for being the next President to one in his speech that threw his entire support behind Obama with seemingly no reservations at all. Before we accept everything in his speech "hook, line and sinker" we need to have a flash back remembering:

• This is the same man who gave us the famous line, "...it depends on your definition of the word is...".
  


• This is the same man who said, "...I did not have sex with..."
  


• This is the same man who allowed terrorism to begin in our country that would result later in 9/11 ...yet he was given the topic of National Security...

Before you are over come with hysteria from the emotion of the overflow from Bill's speech flashback and have a reality check. Neither party has a corner as to being right on all of the issues. We must wade through the emotion and rhetoric of Bill, Hillary and Obama to find out the real facts or as Bill once said what "is".
