How to take ownership of your dream


1. Be willing to bet on yourself. You may succeed if nobody else
believes in you, but you will never succeed if you don’t believe in
yourself.


2. Lead your life instead of accepting your life – making the right
decisions and managing those decisions daily. The power of choice
is the greatest power that a person possesses.


3. Love what you do and do what you love. Successful people – those
who see and seize their dreams – love what they do and do what
they love. They allow their passion and talent to guide them.


4. Don’t compare yourself or your dream to others – when you
compare yourself with those superior, you feel inferior. When you compare yourself with those inferior, you feel superior. When you stop comparing yourself with others, you feel empowered. Success
is doing that best you can with what you have wherever you start in
life.


5. Believe in your vision for the future even when others don’t
understand you. You are not an accident. You are here for a reason.

You are capable of far more than you know

Confidence leads to action and action leads to to greater confidence. Making smart decisions up front makes the path smoother overall. Bold moves leads to stellar destinations. We as women have a tendency to underestimate our own potential. You are capable far more than you know. You have to believe that. Stop underestimating yourself. When you do, you will begin communicating your openness to a better life. In your relationships,  your career, finances and even your health. Your faith will expand and so will your success.

“The most successful people make wise decisions early in life and manage those decisions for the rest of their lives.” I will never forget the first time I heard this from expert John Maxwell and it stuck with me. Whether in your relationships, career, financial abilities,  health and fitness habits or spiritual journey,  starting strong makes the rest of your path easier. your internal beliefs about yourself directly influence your external success.

Good Management of Bad Experiences Leads to Great Growth

How do you usually respond to bad experiences? Do you explode in anger? Do you shrink into yourself emotionally? Do you detach yourself from the experience as much as possible? Do you ignore it?

Every problem introduces a person to himself. Each time we encounter a painful experience, we get to know ourselves a little better.

Pain can cause us to make decisions we would like to put off, deal with issues we would rather not face and makes changes that makes us feel uncomfortable.

What we do with that experience defines who we become.

What separates people who thrive from those who merely survive? I believe it is how they face their problems.

It doesn’t matter who you are, where you live, what you do, or what your background is, you will have to deal with bad experiences. You have to have realistic expectations when it comes to pain and problems. You cannot avoid them.

It doesn’t matter what you gone through in your life or what you are currently going through you have the opportunity to grow from it. It’s sometimes very difficult to see the opportunity in the midst of the pain, but it’s there.

I can give you a list of all of my problems. People truly think I dont have any, the reality of the matter is that I do, but I confront my problems very different than most people and that’s why I have been able to turn things around. I would love for you to be able to do the same. There is always growth and opportunity in every bad experience in life.

When I do mastermind from the book the 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth, people tend to have difficulties with this law. It can be very painful but in reality it should not be.

Remember, if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten. If you want to arrive in a new destination, you need to take a new path.

“Facing difficulties is inevitable, learning from them is optional “

Living a Life by Design not by Default

What things do you have to do to live a life by design?

What are your values? Your values drive your life. You set your goals based on your values and you connect them together.

How would you describe your best possible future self? This is a very important question because you need to search deep. Some people have an idea whereas it may be hard for others to really answer this question. Take some time to think how would you like to be your best version in the future and start planning accordingly.

I want to be a person of impact in other people’s lives. Based on that I have created a way of living that I do that every day. I think this is absolutely in me. But I strive everyday to try to make an impact in someone’s life. I don’t have the energy everyday, I am not at my best everyday because life happens but I always have in the back of my mind, hey Janitza make sure you make an impact today because I haven’t seen you trying today.

Lastly, what if fear didn’t get to make your decisions? If fear didn’t get to make my decisions I will never stop writing. Make sure you write those down. What things would you do? Start with the smallest things and then dream big. You will be amazed at all the things you would write ✍ down. Don’t let fear stop you from getting what you want.

If you need help because you feel stuck in your life and or in your next business plan let me know. I’m here to help you create that life that you want so bad.

Until next time,

Why Ignoring Being A Child Again Will Cost Your Dreams

Growing up I always had this dream to come to America. The question I always had was, how in the world am I going to do that? My parents were not the type of parents that would travel, even in Puerto Rico they did not go out and adventure. We were not the type of family that went on vacation. Their vacation time was spent at home.

I always heard some of my classmates talk about their summer vacations, which must of the time were to Disney. I love hearing about it, but to be honest with you that wasn’t my dream. Never care about Disney World.

I have always been a person that sees opportunities in problems and obstacles. I guess that’s how I was either brought up or wired, I don’t have a definite answer about why I was that way, well still I’m that way.

I believed it was 1993 when my brother had broken up with his girlfriend, his high school sweetheart. I remember when she left. She moved to United States. Guess what happened at that time? My brother couldn’t see himself without her. He was just devastated and decided to pursue her and work things out and move to united States with her.

Omg! Now I am devastated. My brother is leaving us? Im so happy for him because to be honest with you we didn’t get along all that much, but still he is my brother and we lived under the same roof. However I wished him well and I also was excited for his new chapter.

After all of that soap opera going on which I couldn’t stand, because frankly I hate drama, and I still do, my dad lost his job. So there was adversity going on in our family. It really wasn’t anything to be worry about but my mom had said to me there was a possibility that she was not going to be able to get me back to private school for my senior year if my dad didn’t have his job back.

Wow, how in the world am I going to be able to go to public school after being in private school all my life? I knew I didn’t belong there, eventhough I had friends that went to public school, there were not many though, but they really were private school potential. Meaning that they were just like me. We had same values, same opportunities but the only thing that made them different from me was that their parents didn’t have the financial resources but we were able to connect to the same level. I don’t know if you will understand where I am coming from. I am not saying anything bad about people that went to public school. The public school system in my area was just not made for me nor my family. Thats all im saying. I had other family members that went to public school and are great people and still have same values,, however public school in my area was not an option for me. I just could not relate to most of the people that were in public school period. A lot of them came from broken families, the projects and their vision and mine was just not in alignment.

So, here I am in the middle of trying to decide, well do I try to make it in public school or do I try to purse my childhood dreams? Hummm?. That’s was a no brainer, don’t you think?

I remember just like it was yesterday going to my mom’s office and seating in front of her desk and say to her, mom I want you to buy me a plane ticket, I’m moving with my brother to United States. ( And there was silence).

I didn’t stutter, I didn’t feel my eyes blink a bit, this was a decision that it had to be made right away. My poor mother was so shocked. This haven’t even been discussed with my brother. He was going to be a newlywed. There is a lot of things that needed to be thought through but for whatever reason that was nothing for this 17 year old girl worry about.

My mom bought my ticket. The rest of this happy ending is history.

Every time I have to make decisions in life I always go back to that little girl who had a dream. That girl that always dreamed to come to America, learn English and go to college and see the other side of the world. John Maxwell said on his leading through crisis mastermind group, “You are not made in a crisis, you are revealed.”

This was a very hard decision to make and I sure made it. When you have decisions to make always think about what your guts tells you. Always go with what your dreams are. Do not let anyone ever crash your dreams, your future, your potential. If you do, you will regret it and you may resent other people.

Everytime I see problems or crisis again I look for opportunities and in some of my future blogs I’m going to share with you what I have done. John Maxwell defines a crisis as “an intense time of difficulty requiring a decision that will be a turning point.”

People may think I’m lucky, some people may think I’m high maintenance, some people may think I’m conceded when in reality I’m always in the background working hard so when problems, adversity, hard times or whatever you want to call it show up, I look at it in a positive way and take things seriously as an opportunity and make the best out of it. I love this quote “Adaptable leaders can John Maxwell says, turn adversity into advantage”. This is how I have been so successful in my life. This is how I have been able to live a pretty happy and healthy life that I am not willing to change for noone.

God bless,

Jani
