As I look around and continue to take this world in I oftentimes find myself feeling like I need to call CPS (Child Protective Services) on a lot of adults that I come into contact with in my line of business as a Peak Performance Specialist and Personal Development Coach, but not for the reasons you may normally think.

I need to notify CPS because I’ve noticed that many people’s inner-child is constantly being abused and neglected by their outer-adult. I know this may sound a bit strange but trust me, our inner-child usually knows best when it comes to our true inner-most passions.

Think back to the time as a child when you didn’t have a care or concern in the world and you were free to really dream and imagine and explore and create without fear of failure, folly or ridicule from others. In fact at times we may have even been applauded and encouraged by the adults in our life. Then somewhere along the path to adulthood ourselves we started to suppress and repress the inner-connection of our true passions experienced firsthand at the young, tender age of our inner-child.

So to that end, I’d like to encourage you today to stop neglecting that inner-child of yours or I just might have to call CPS. 😉 Don’t be afraid to let that inner-child version of you re-emerge and lead the way to uncovery and discovery in the area of your true passion so you can get to making it GREAT!

It worked for me. 🙂

GREAT WEEK!!!

I was having an interesting PC (Power-Chat) with a good friend the other day and he commented that he couldn’t understand why my social media and blog post rarely seem to get many comments or “likes”. My comment to him left him a bit spun-out and speechless but still nodding his head in agreement.

I simply advised him that any media that’s void of what I call the “4-C’s and excessive V” will always struggle to capture people’s time and attention but that we can’t measure the validity of what we do by the yardstick of acknowledgement, appreciation and approbation of man. If we do, we’re setting ourselves up for huge heartbreak and massive disappointment.

So what is this “4-C’s and excessive V” thing all about? Well, it’s quite simply Criticism, Complaining, Condemnation, Controversy and excessive Vanity.

It’s no secret that negative news, drama and visual eye-candy has been and always will be attention grabbers and headline nabbers. The old notion that “Sex Sells” and “Drama Delivers Dollars” unfortunately will never be completely eradicated from our society for it seems to satisfy an urge, desire and internal-subtle craving that’s at the inner-most core of who we are as human beings. Fighting against this norm can definitely be an uphill battle but the unpopular task is both noble and necessary.

So I continue to press forward controversy free in my efforts to be the exception in spite of the lack of facebook “likes” and blog comment spikes and I invite you to join me in committing to keep the media airwaves and internet highways free of the “4-C’s and excessive V” on our way to Making it GREAT!

AWESOME WEEKEND my friends!!!
