IEC ED Niel Dawson Update – May 15th
One of my favorite authors, James Clear recently posted, “The more control you have over your attention, the more control you have over your future.” This is now more true than ever, with all the attention, fear-based news that is constantly served up to us. And Albert Gray, a life insurance executive, goes on to say that “Every single qualification for success is acquired through habit. People form habits and habits form futures. If you do not deliberately form good habits, then unconsciously you will form bad ones. You are the kind of person you are because you have formed the habit of being that kind of person, and the only way you can change is through habit.” So if we are constantly focusing our attention on fear-based news, that habit will form into more fear, instead of looking for solutions. Let’s focus our attention on solutions so that our future will be filed with results that benefit not only ourselves, but the people we come in contact with both personally and professionally. Tell us how we can help you with solutions to your business issues – we’re here to help!
