Q & A with Dawn Alison

pt of the day

“Man is a goal-seeking animal.
His life only has meaning if
he is reaching out and striving for his goals.”

All men seek one goal: success or happiness.
The only way to achieve true success is
to express yourself completely in service to society.
First, have a definite, clear, practical ideal-a goal, an objective.
Second, have the necessary means to achieve your ends-wisdom,
money, materials and methods.
Third, adjust all your means to that end.

Be true to the game,
because the game will be true to you.
If you try to shortcut the game,
then the game will shortcut you.
If you put forth the effort,
good things will be bestowed upon you.
That's truly about the game.

Success is peace of mind,
which is a direct result of
self-satisfaction in knowing you made the effort
to become the best of which you are capable.

The only boundaries for me are those I place on myself;
I can make my own dreams come true.

Be careful what you water your dreams with.
Water them with worry and fear
and you will produce weeds that choke the life from your dream.
Water them with optimism and solutions
and you will cultivate success.

Always be on the lookout for ways to turn a problem
into an opportunity for success.
Always be on the lookout for ways to nurture your dream...

The biggest adventure you can ever take is
to live the life of your dreams.

Dreaming is not enough.
You have to go a step further and use your imagination to visualize,
with intent!
Forget everything you've ever been taught,
and believe it will happen,
just as you imagined it.
That is the secret.
That is the mystery of life.
Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind
a mental picture of yourself as succeeding.
Hold this picture tenaciously
and never permit it to fade.
Your mind will seek to develop this picture!
Imagination is everything.
It is the preview of life's coming attractions."

What you think about comes about.....
Success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life

Follow your intuition, listening to your dreams,

Happiness is making your dreams come true.

You don’t have to be a fantastic hero to do certain things – to compete.
You can be just an ordinary chap,
sufficiently motivated to reach challenging goals.

The reason most people never reach their goals is
that they don’t define them,
or ever seriously consider them as believable or achievable.
Winners can tell you where they are going,
what they plan to do along the way,
and who will be sharing the adventure with them.

Our goals can only be reached through a vehicle of a plan,
in which we must fervently believe,
and upon which we must vigorously act.
There is no other route to success.

Tomorrow is a new day;
you shall begin it serenely
and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”

“All successful people learn that success is buried on the other side of frustration.
Unfortunately, some people don’t get to the other side…
They allow frustration to keep them from taking the necessary actions
that would support them in achieving their desire.
You get through this roadblock by plowing through frustration,
taking each setback as feedback you can learn from,
and pushing ahead.”

The 7 Failure-Proof Ways to Achieve Your Goals:

1. Get clear about your goal.

2. Break your goal into a series of sub-goals

3. Visualize.
4. Take action.

5. Keep your goal alive.

6. Keep the benefits in mind.

7. Get help from others.

• Tell your friends, family and colleagues about your goals.

• Stay positive, don’t surrender to the negative.

• Believe.

• Express gratitude

. ======================


1. Get clear about your goal.

Quite often, people want a positive life change, but they don’t know what exactly it is. Take some time in silence to think about it, set your goal and write it down.

2. Break your goal into a series of sub-goals.

Doing so will create a step-by-step process that will help you remove the fear of hesitation. It is important to be specific; make your goal achievable, measurable and having a time limit. For example, if your goal is to run a marathon you can commit yourself to regular trainings, each day running 1 km more than the previous day. Use the present tense instead of future and have a positive image. For instance, instead of saying I will fight laziness focus on “I exercise”.

3. Visualize.

It is powerful to imagine yourself achieve your goal, but researchers say that you might benefit more from visualizing the process of doing instead of just the final result. For example, tennis players can benefit much more from imagining themselves training than winning.

4. Take action.

Start with the easiest sub-goal. Remind yourself of the “just a few minutes” rule. Evidence shows that people are more likely to finish the task once they have started, so to avoid procrastination you just need to start doing it for “just a few minutes”.

5. Keep your goal alive.

It can be a good way to express your goals, plans, benefits and rewards in writing. Keep a journal, cover your fridge with pictures or make a poster! This way, you will be constantly reminded of your goal. And where the focus goes, energy flows.

6. Keep the benefits in mind.

Focus your attention on how achieving your aims will bring positive change to your life. Having a positive picture will help you overcome possible difficulties. Rewarding yourself on accomplishing your sub-goals is likely to boost the chance of success.

7. Get help from others.

On your way to finish, you will meet people who can make your life easier. It is wise to remember that if you want to get help from others, you need to help people first.

There are also some general tips to achieve your goals and make the step taking process much easier:

• Tell your friends, family and colleagues about your goals. It will bring a new level of commitment to your plans. Now, you are additionally motivated to keep your promise

• Stay positive, don’t surrender to the negative. Doubts, obstacles and negative thoughts may come your way and try to divert your attention. Instead of fighting them, switch to a positive image!

• Believe. One can never say enough about how important this tip is. Even if everybody else doubts you, believing that there is light at the end of the tunnel might eventually create one!

• Express gratitude. Counting your blessings will create the energy to help you succeed!

Finally, while chasing for something we often forget to enjoy staying on the road. Remember that not only achieving your goal, but walking the way, too, is the reward in itself.

EGG WHITE Protein Pancakes

My favorite are using banana but you can put almost anything it in, canned pumpkin, berries, shredded apple (shred on cheese crater), applesauce, frozen cranberries etc)



Ingrediants FOR BANANA PROTEIN PANCAKES:

- Liquid Eggwhites (depends on how many grams of protein you need, I use 1 ½ cups)

- Banana

- Cinnamon (I use Costco “Kirkland” brand it’s the best and use 4-6 big shakes cuz I don’t like eggs so it disguises the taste, plus I love cinnamon)

- Starchy Carb if you are allowed I use either uncooked oatmeal, Nutracleanse, or cooked black or brown rice (if using cooked rice, measure amount you need, put on plate beside skillet, once mix egg mixture and pour in skillet then sprinkle on rice, then push into eggwhites with flipper)



· BE PRHEATING YOUR NON-STICK SKILLET ON MED HEAT COATEDF WITH PAM SPRAY

(I prefer my pancakes to be thicker so I use an 8” skillet)

· BLEND ALL INGREDIANTS WELL IN BLENDER

· POUR IN SKILLET

· Make sure heat of skillet is NOT too high or the pancake with not cook thru and you will have trouble when it comes to flipping it

· When you go to flip it should lift up easily if not put it back down

· Most people cook too high of heat so it doesn’t cook thru hence it not being able to flip

· Flip cook other side it won’t need as long

· Cook on cooling rack or underside will sweat and get soggy

· This is when I go take shower etc and let them well cool

· Once cook top with Natural Peanut Butter or Nut butters (ie: almond, cashew etc)

· Then I cut in half, fold together, then cut in wedges

· I eat one for breakfast, 1 later in day

· I cook 2 at one time so have 2 skillets going

· They don’t freeze well they get soggy

· But I have made and eat them up to 5 days later

· ENJOY

BALANCE:
“Imagine life as a game
in which you are juggling some five balls in the air.
You name them – Work, Family, Health, Friends and Spirit
and you’re keeping all of these in the Air.
You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball.
If you drop it, it will bounce back.
But the other four Balls - Family, Health, Friends and Spirit – are made of glass.
If you drop one of these;
they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered.
They will never be the same.
You must understand that and strive for it.”

“People with goals succeed because
they know where they’re going.”

A dream becomes a goal when
action is taken toward its achievement.
A goal without a plan is just a wish.

People often fail in achieving their goal because
they look at how far they have to go
instead of looking at how far they have come.
Don't let the fear of failing

The Friend Who Just Stands By
By Anonymous


When troubles come your soul to try,
You love the friend who just stands by.
Perhaps there's nothing she can do,
The thing is strictly up to you.

For there are troubles all your own,
And paths the soul must tread alone.
Times when love can't smooth the road,
Nor friendship lift the heavy load.

But just to feel you have a friend,
Who will stand by until the end.
Whose sympathy through all endures,
Whose warm handclasp is always yours.

It helps somehow to pull you through,
Although there's nothing she can do.
And so with fervent heart we cry,
God Bless the friend who just stands by.

pt of the day

He who trims himself to suit everyone
will soon whittle himself away.

To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best, night and day,
to make you everybody else
means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight;
and never stop fighting.

It takes courage to grow up
and become who you really are.

It is better to be hated for what you are
than to be loved for something you are not.

JUST DO IT

pt of the day

"There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say,
Yes, I've got dreams, of course I've got dreams.
Then they put the box away
and bring it out once in a while to look in it,
and yep, they're still there."

"All our dreams can come true if
we have the courage to pursue them."

Persistence allows you to keep taking action even when
you don’t feel motivated to do so,
and therefore you keep accumulating results.
Persistence will ultimately provide its own motivation.
If you simply keep taking action,
you’ll eventually get results,
and results can be very motivating."

"Destiny is no matter of chance.
It is a matter of choice.
It is not a thing to be waited for,
it is a thing to be achieved."

JUST DO IT

pt of the day

if you want something you've never had,
you have to be willing to do something you've never done....

“Our life is what our thoughts make it”

what you think about you bring about
you are now the product of all your past thoughts and actions
you create you
