Simple Thoughts On Being A Dad

While this post will not qualify as being the longest creation on the subject of being a dad, I believe it holds weight in the category of being important.

In actuality it came about as a result of my taking a look at a variety of the movies I was checking out from what I could call “the back office” of Simple Truths (yes, I am an affiliate in case you are wondering).  At any rate, I played the brief “movie” you will see below my quote, and it certainly grabbed my attention.  For me, it could be termed a “gripping” presentation.

So…

I decided to post it here.  The quote I created several years ago.  I believe it was around 2003 in fact.  Yes, I still feel the same. It is an incredible privilege and responsibility being a father as you can see from several of my other posts.  In fact, if you are in business of any sort and happen to be a dad, I would encourage you to click here to read my longer post on the subject of building your home while building your business.

If You Are A Dad, I Would Say… Definitely Watch This Movie!

“Bringing It Home” As They Say…

Reflecting on the brief presentation… powerful wouldn’t you say?  And with that in mind, we could ask or comment…

• How am I doing as a dad on the “time scale” of life with my family: should be, could be better or hardly ever?
• Realizing that I need to spend a great deal of time on other things, am making sure that I am sharing quality moments — moments where I am being careful to encourage, uplift, carefully listen, use what I would call “the ministry of touch,” and otherwise let the family know of my deep love and concern for them?

Hi, Folks

Why the coffee mug?  Simple: rest for a moment to “relax, enjoy and take in the thoughts below.”

I just wanted to take a moment and share with what I learned following my visit to a site by Kary Rogney.  I will relate to you my spontaneous reactions to Kary and his team describing themselves and my subsequent reply (which you can see by clicking on Kary’s link that I’ve put in above) which I made after going to that page and absorbing what it said.

• No, I am NOT a team member at the time of this writing.
• No, I am NOT one of their “tribe members” at the time of this writing.
• No, that link I shared is NOT my affiliate link.

So why share?

Good question and here’s my answer: Very simply, I thought it was good stuff and a quality example — at least from my perspective.  And, for me it was one of those “heart issues.”  I simply felt that it would be a good review, did an inner check, and felt “just go ahead and share it (meaning my observations below).”  So I did.  I talk about listening to the heart and stuff like that in my book, so I try to keep learning myself in that area.

The Post And My “Lessons Learned.”

Kary,

Personally, I think this is one of the best “presentations” I have seen in terms of demonstrating the following in my mind:

*Comfortable style in sharing

*Exemplary teamwork demonstrated in video and on page.

*Value provided (by listening closely to the overview)

*Layout and design of an “internet stopping place.”

*Use of videos in sharing concepts and content.

*What I would term a “qualified call to action.” For me that means to things: (1) If you identify us, with who we are at this point; and (2) like what you sense or “feel”… then go ahead and check further. No push, shove or you may croak in the next 30 seconds if you don’t take action now.

Nice, folks. Really nice.

Thanks for being a positive example out there in the internet world.

Your Takeaways?

• As you learn, grow and develop… what did you learn (assuming you stopped by Kary’s page).
• How can, or could, you apply some of the principles they exemplify and share in the brief time they share with you?
• Can you share and or teach anything in general from the principles that I mentioned?

Your Values. Your Vision. Your Life.

Bridget Haymond recently created a post on her blog entitled “Values For Your Success.”

Within that very well said article, she lists an acronym for values that I believe is worth sharing.

• Vision – create a vision board with inspirational photos and phrases
• Alignment – keep goals in alignment with core values for momentum
• Legacy – commit to a lifestyle that leaves an inspiring legacy
• Useful – useful goals have measurable results that further the vision
• Endurance – worthwhile endeavors take time so endurance is key
• Success – successful results are balanced and whole life focused.

Aren’t those great?

Expanding, Applying, Digging Deeper

– Vision –

As you move through your day — whether that be an “attraction marketing day” — a personal day off, or during this stage in your life:

How could are you, or feel that you should be, keeing your vision alive?

If yours, like many, is a “vision in formation,” how might paying attention to the remainder of the points help you along the way?

– Alignment and Core Values –

Have you identified your core values that could be “attached” to any of your goals or dreams?

If so, are they in print where you could share them with someone else?

** A side note here. Chapter two of my ebook gives you a simple process to clarify and create your own values list.

– Legacy –

Don’t you love that word “lifestyle” when associated with the topic of a legacy?

Question: if you were to summarize in broad terms what you are aiming at in terms of a legacy, what would it be?

Have you created a mission statement that would faciliate your living the way you desire to live for the purpose of leaving the legacy you desire to leave?

– Useful and Enduring –

Putting these two words through my particular grid, I might say…

We design target attitudes and actions that serve to move us towards the desires of our hearts (i.e. they are useful) and stimulate in us a sense of sticking with it until they are accomplished or modified to fit our purposes.

How would you reframe that combination of words to fit your take on life and what you want to accomplish?

Writing down how you might answer that could be the stimulus to share with those you are training, your family or another significant person you are seeking to influence.

– Success –

“Balanced and whole life focused.” Now that says tons to me.

Tons.

In my way of thinking, being “balanced” and “whole life focused” qualifies for a never ending pursuit. Why? Because we…

Learn.
Grow.
Adapt.
Adjust.
And keep moving forward in those areas.

Suppose your son, daughter, spouse, best friend, or business partner and this question was posed to you:

“How do you attempt to stay balanced and whole life focused?”

How would you answer that person?

Thanks, Bridget!

Naturally, Bridget has more to say on her post but she sure got me thinking!

A bit on the unusual side for me on a post, I just sat down, began to write, and this is what came out in the process.  Enjoy!

On Maintaining Hope In Business and in the Business Of Life

You,

Your team,

Or those around you will struggle with maintaing hope at times.

Most of us do in my opinion.

While there may exist many formulas for regaining hope, my thoughts today centered around not so much of a formula but rather a simple observation.

On Maintaining Hope…

Hope is maintained by an ongoing process

of realigning thoughts and actions with faith based intentions.

©Lee Wise

I take stock of who I am on the inside.

And if hope is lacking for whatever the reason, I ask a simple question:

“What is truth here?”

And then: “Will truth reign?”

I may be down, disappointed and not at all ready to move forward.  But in seeing what I could do based on where I believe it is important for me to be in the next steps of my journey, I…

• Realign my thoughts with where I want to head.
• Establish the validity of the goal.
• Assess what I can do as opposed to being overwhelmed with what I feel I can’t do.
• And I decide to take some action that truly assists me in the process.

That action could be actually doing something or deciding to not do anything because I am proverbially speaking, “Shot.”

But I do it.  And somewhere in the process a measure of hope returns or is maintained to some degree.

Maybe nothing fancy, life changing or what some might call dramatic…

But just enough to keep me moving forward.

An Inspirational Quote By Lee Wise — On Caring

Don’t allow the simplicity of this quote to run by you without a measure of thought.  While obvious, you and I recognize…

• The importance of caring in terms of our own character development.
• The importance of learning how to reflect genuine care to those in our internet marketing pursuits.
• The importance of caring with regards to our personal and family lives.
• And how all of the above tie together in terms of our own personal success.

Taking It All In…

• What does the subject of caring bring to mind for me as I plan my business week?
• As I think about caring for others, who would immediately come to mind in my personal or professional life that could use a bit of my “caring time”?
• If I were to reflect on the most meaningful ways others have cared for me in my life, what might I add in my journal entry regarding those ways?

Lee Wise, Renegade Professional: My Story

Below you will find my testimony regarding my experience with the Renegade Professional community of which I am a part.  It will serve as an expansion of my thoughts that are currently on my home page.

Briefly, my experience so far has been great!  Seriously, I am enjoying the ride so-to-speak.  In addition to what I share on the video, I would say that my feelings of “community” with the group continue to grow.  As I am now involved in their coaching program and getting to know the “Renegade Crew” more as time goes on, I would say that my relationship with them grows deeper as well.  I do appreciate them, their values and what I anticipate to be their future contributions to the online and offline marketing world.

Should you be on a similar journey as mine, I hope that the video will prove helpful to you.

Feel free to make comments below and enjoy your day!

Follow Up Comments

You will hear me give the example in the video about learning from other members of the Renegade Professional community and writing my article on The Power Of Story: click here to see my article by that title.  You also hear my refer to several newsletters that I write and how I learned a bit about where to locate that on a site: look to your left and you will see the one entitled A Beautiful Moment In Time.

Enjoy your day!

Purpose Filled Living
© Lee Wise  All rights reserved

Purpose Filled Living Is...

Forged in the heart,

Inspired by the dreams it creates,

Sealed by commitment,

Reinforced through trial,

And realized throughout the process.

In our quest for personal and internet marketing excellence, it seems to me that the power of purpose needs to both forge and sustain our efforts.

It is with that in mind, that I created this brief quote today and decided to post it here.

I hope that it may prove to be a blessing for you this day!
