About you

Are you hungry to live a focused and productive life?
Are you ready to apply concentrated attention on building your life?
Sometimes we need help to define our dreams, to bring them into focus and to keep them focused.
Join the growing number of people who are taking the time to get their focus right.
We can wander through life, hoping that everything will work out for the best, but history tells me we have a role in making our dreams come true. That role involves finding and setting our focus.
Shift your focus, to change your world. Experience now the kaleidoscope effect in your life.
Setting Your Goals -- The Power of Focus!
According to the Encarta online dictionary, goal means aim, something that somebody wants to achieve.
The question is, how do you know what to aim for -- what to focus on - and how do you know when you have achieved it?
It is easy to have many ideas but goals are the process by which you are able to focus those ideas to make them achievable.
Focus is an amazing gift in our toolbox for life. It is the ability to narrow things down to a single point and to concentrate all of our energy and resources in that direction. It is also the ability to see things clearly. When our focus is divided, our lives are in constant turmoil and our "vision" blurred. However, when focused, our dreams are achievable. Focus is a power enabler.
Here are the main points why goal setting is a good idea in gaining and maintaining focus to enable you to fulfill your dreams:
1. Knowing where you are heading empowers you. If you can see the finish line, you know exactly how much effort is required for you to cross it and that is empowering.
2. Recording your goals also empowers you. By writing them down and giving them a timeframe to make them measurable, you go through the mental process of figuring out exactly what you are going to need to achieve them. Assigning a date by which to achieve your goals helps to apply the pressure necessary to motivate you to action.
3. Visualizing your goal in your mind helps you to adopt the mental attitude necessary to achieve your goal. Imagine yourself doing whatever your goal is. The clearer you can see it in your mind, the more achievable it will become.
4. Talk positively about your goals and eliminate negative self-talk in relation to them. Every goal will have its issues but by being solutions focused, the issues will fade into the glory of achieving your goals.
5. Break your goals right down into achievable bite size chunks. The more detailed you are, the more probable your success will be.
6. Protect your goals from the "dream stealers". These are people that want to discourage you by pointing out all the obstacles and problems associated with your goal.
7. As you are working on your goals, adopt a "do-it-now" mentality. If something is annoying you, do something about it. Take action.
8. Make lists. If you rely on your brain, you will miss important things out. Buy a notepad you can carry everywhere with you and make lists of what you want to achieve. Tick them off as you go.
9. Make new goals regularly. A goals list is a fluid document. It needs to be visited daily and updated as things come up.
10. No more excuses, take action now! You can only guarantee success if you start the journey.

Bio
"I was on anti-depressants, living in crisis, on the point of bankruptcy, and with four children under five years of age to care for and support. Daily I contemplated suicide. Then I experienced an epiphany (a sudden realization) that I had to take action because I was responsible for my life. Taking action meant handing over my six-month old baby to a childcare facility while I went back to work. Action meant, leaving my husband who was living a self-focused life, battling addictions. Action meant making a long line of choices that have led me to be the strong, responsible and successful person that I am today.
A friend challenged me to think about what my winning combination are, as so many people have consistently told me over the past 10 years that I am truly amazing. After all I have survived child sexual abuse, being homeless at 17, losing my mother and two grandmothers in the same year, a miscarriage, rejection from leaders who have misunderstood my motives, a failed business and post-natal depression. Not only have I survived, but I have come out the other side grounded and victorious!
These guiding principles I have crafted into the Kaleidoscope Effect Personal Management Program, a program I will be launching in the near future. They are my winning combination for not only bouncing back, but going on to be successful in life and one who is determined to be a world changer, actively guiding others to make the most of their lives.
People say to me all the time, "I don't know how you do it." I'm saying to you, "Let me show you how you can do it in your life."
In 2001, I established a home maintenance business. In 2006, I established a professional standard women's magazine, Pearls Women's Magazine (http://pearlsmag.com). In 2007, I established Women Can International Inc. These are just three of the things that I have done that have defied the critics. After all, who just starts things without any expertise? If I can do it, so can you!
There will be many dream stealers along the pathway; people who don't understand your heart or your motives. See these as the opportunities to strengthen your vision. I can give you the tools to manage these relationships because I've had my fair share over the years.
I promise you that you can do anything if you believe, work diligently, don't give up at the first hurdle and perservere.
It is all about focus.
