Orlando - The Home of Mickey Mouse

Getting some sun in Orlando, had some great times here over the past few days.  Training is incredible with Stephen Pierce, what an amzaing experience he has and whats really powerful it his desire to share with all his knowledge to learn more to have more. 

I got to spend some time with my Dad this weekend while I was here, he actually came over to the Orlando area and stayed with me. It was great to see him. 

How many times in your life have you wished you did something, something you can look at with "hindsight" and know it would have made a difference? 

What are you thinking about doing now, something that might be a reach for you, something that would, for sure, put you out of your comfort zone? All I can tell you our would like to share with you is that its about the moments that we wonder about that make up our life, its the wonderous moments that change our life that we should all live by. 
Well this weekend was one of those wonderous ones for me, being with Daddy, thats what we boys still call him.

I hope today finds you closer to your goals, closer to your dreams, and right in the middle of a moment that you will remember for the rest of your life.

High School Quote, If I only knew?...

Taking a break in the Lobby of the Omni Hotel here in Los Angeles, I had this urge to share some personal thoughts.
More on the Stephen Pierce Tour coming later... smiles

Over the past few weeks, there have been many additions to my life that made me realize the reality of my old High School quote in my Senior yearbook.

"You never know how important your Friends are till they are gone".

My Mom passed last month, and I have to tell you, I can't think of any better friend I had in my life, and I have heard other say the same about her... She was and is today a friend that can never be replaced, for that I'm grateful.. Love you Mom!!!

So back to the quote... I think its a pretty cool quote to know that I said that over 25 years ago, that it would have meaning today.

What would have been really cool, is if I could have been really prophetic and add this to it..

... "Or how great it feels to get your friends back"!!! Now that would have been OUTSTANDING if I said that then.

I share this because I have not had the great joy of getting to know some of my old friends again.. cousins I have not spoken to in many many years!

My Mom had much to do with this, and I love her for that to.

So what is message? What ever you think about and Thank about, you bring about!
Don't let time slip by saying you "Should have" or you "Could have".. I can tell the joy I feel getting know my family again is a powerful.

Who do you want to get to know again, maybe its yourself!!! JUST DO IT!!!

Thanks for the smiles you shared yesterday, they showed up today for me...

Just over the NEXT Mountain

I can only imagine what the early settlers would say after they crossed one of the mini mountain
ranges along thier trip. As they apporached, "its just on the other side of that range", only to find another one


on down the way.
The state line actually was in the middle of a river as we were crossing a bridge on I-10, then headed on into LA.

California here we come!!!

It has been quite some time since I have made the "drive", and for those of you that have made this DRIVE,
you know of which I speak.
Driving from Texas out to Los Angeles is an amazing trip and one to be done only once in a lifetime...





My brother Jimmy and I made this trip almost 20 years ago, but we started in Tampa Florida, and drove for 56 hours straight thru... that was more then anyone should have to do... but we did it.


This picture is of the coach sitting in the parking lot behind the hotel, its kind of hard to make out, I will take some more pictures in the day, its $100 a night to park it there... OMG
We are staying at the Omni Hotel in downtown LA, here I am in the room, I can see the bus from here, they were nice enough to give a room so I can watch my baby down there... :)

Not sure what to expect!

I have been on stage for 3 days, with groups as large as 3,000 people, having live simultanious translatoins into 9 different lanuages. I have been on camera, live feed around the world, taping for DVD trianings, but I am not sure what to expect with camera crews for a reality TV show. There is no 'take 2' with this format, or "that didn't sound that good, let me use some different words". 

It is going to be a very interesting 10 days on this first leg of the trip, from Dallas, to Phoenix then on to Los Angeles, next to Las Vegas, back into Oklahoma some where, then back into Dallas. 

With camera crews in the bus, and 2 or maybe 3 chasers following.. I can only imagine the footage they will have from this single trip alone. 

It's about a real "Rags to Riches" story about a power house of a man, his name is on the bus. 

Looking forward to the experience, and there is no telling what tomorrow will bring, I do know that it will be an amazing day, and by the grace of God, another sunset is in my future.

Focus - You already have it, don't you?

As a person that has spent many hours in front of people giving training, as well as time spent on the phone training large groups, I often get the question, How do  I get more focused?

The answer is, you may not want to get more focused! Let me explain.

Focus is not the missing tool you are looking for, now that is my perception, let me see if I can explain this clear enough to make sense. 

What you are doing right now is giving you results, right? So you are already focused on something. The challenge is that you may want to have different results! So its not getting more focused, its changing your activities, that's a different process, its changing your Why belief, that's a different process. 

I would have to believe that you don't sit around wondering what to do, or have time in your day that is completely void of any activity, so its a matter of putting things in priority order that will move you continually towards your goal. 

It is my belief that you are looking to be more accountable for your actions. Its my belief that you want to have a different vision for the future that you can monitor daily.  Because you are achieving your goals everyday, they just may be someone else's goals, and that's the frustrating part. 

Learn more about Accountability, have more of what you want and less of what you don't, it may help you to have a Goals Review session with me, visit www.seangmurphy.com and you will be amazed what positive feelings you will have after the NO-FEE 40 minute session. Its my gift to you and all that are looking to you for support.

Get OVER and Get ON with your life

The title means, 
Get OVER yourself, and get ON with your life. All to often we want to keep our self at the center of a situation, if it is good or bad. 

I just finished a training call I was invited to, I was the guest speaker if you will. I wanted to share with you the perspective I left the call with, if that is okay. 

There were different levels of experience in the room, and what I learned after the call, is that all to often we have a tendency to project our personal thoughts on to situations that we have little or no control over. The key is to stay focused on what you want out of life, clearly define if what you are doing, and about to do is going to move you closer, then do it!

What you do is all up to you! I wanted to share that thought and hope that today you are moving in the direction that will make your life better, and that is only possible if you are bringing value to others. 

Looking forward to seeing you at the next event,

Taking a break

Right now, as you go through all the activities that you do on a daily basis, do yourself a favor, take a break. Its the simple Law of Diminishing returns, there will come a point that you can no longer bring value to your goals, and you start to loose sight, or have an energy drain. 

In each part of the day, do what you can to take 5 minutes just for you, sit quietly, or have your favorite book to read, take a walk. You have to do something, or you wind up taking the 2 steps back on your way towards your success. 

This is something that I have used to my advantage, and it has worked for me, I sure hope it brings you value as well. 
Until our next visit,
Your friend and student,
