No Message no return! Creating a message of success
In the 1989 move Field of Dreams, there is a mystery voice that speaks to Ray the voice tells him “If you build it, they will come.”
At the time he wanted to know who they were. As we grow in this constantly changing topsy-turvy world, we often forget about the small things in life. The small things like greeting passer buyers or telling your love ones you love them before leaving the house. Even down to picking up the phone to call a friend, family member, or even a business partner. We have gotten to the age of an email or text message. No more sitting down to write a hand written letter and show a little more effort. And when we do place a call we never leave a message. As you strive to reach your goal of success you must have a message. You must have some type of substance that can create a return. Leaving a message is just like being a farmer or gardener you are planting seeds. A message can be as simple as speaking to the different people you pass every time you enter in the grocery store and or connivance store. I do realize the entire point of a connivance store is for you to get in and get out. No one ever said you had to speak. What about taking the time to speak to the drive through rep that assists you with your food. I know that is unthought-of I know you may say they call it fast food for a reason. However you do this to create a message of who you are and your values. When you call someone and they do not answer the phone do you leave a message or do you hang up. How or why do you expect a phone call when you do not leave a message? That drives me crazy personally. Any time a person calls and do not leave a message it gets to me. I think to myself what they think I sit around twit tiling my thumbs all day. No I do not I have things to do I have people to help so I call them when I call them. I have learned and still learning that a message should be direct and to the point. It should be catching and encourage someone to call you back. That being said when leaving a message it does not have to be long winded it can be short. That being said it is rude to waist people time so when setting your voicemail it’s unprofessional to try and play an entire song and or give them a sermon. That is why they have social networks for you let people know what’s on your mind.
By creating a message you set yourself up for a return. I have used a verbal message for my example however I want to remind you of the accessories we have talked about previously. A message could be your pride in your walk, your dress and or your appearance, a message can even be your business card, or the upkeep of your house and car. Your message is your on sight portfolio, it represent your who, what, when, and how. When you have a message there is no need to boast or do self edification, because your message does that for you! When you create a message you will get a return.

#3 30 Day Work Out Plan
What are you credentials for success. with out proper credentials there is no success.
Dictionary.com defines credentials. as evidence of authority, status, rights, entitlement to privileges, or the like, usually in written form: Only those with the proper credentials are admitted.
What are your credentials for success. where is the evidence to show that you have a right to succeed. What are you willing to give up and add to your life. Many times we say we want to be successful but we never really know what that entitle us to do. We do not actually count up the cost to see what will have to be sacrificed in order to reach said set level of success. Many try to go business as usually and sadly that is not possible. Success credentials require for you to set yourself apart and study your profession, your art, your craft, your love. The bibles worlds it in 2 Timothy 2:15 "Do your best to present yourself to God as an approved worker who has nothing to be ashamed of, handling the word of truth with precision." To reach your desired goal in life you must fully understand your craft. You must know the ins and outs. Now granted you will not know everything and you will not know most of it right away. It takes time, it takes effort, most importantly it takes a drive. However in the long run you will gain help full revelation and maybe be inspired to leave your mark on a canvas of life. To build your credentials you must make yourself a friend of successful and unsuccessful people, it's not always what you know it’s who you know. Sometimes the best friends of success are those who are dead. Being that no one likes to seem week it's likely that some friends that are alive will try and embellish the truth at times. That being said compile you some people that are dead and gone. Some personally choices of mine are David, Saul, Isaiah, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Martin Luther, and Dr. King. There are more but no need for me to be name dropping. However in each of these men lives they share something they all have something in common they all have experienced humility they all have experienced opposing looks and have all experienced conspiracies against them. Part of your credentials "You don't know nothing till you been through something" Don't save a child and tell someone you have saved the world! Lastly and not least, I am a personal advocate for right. Part of your credentials are your name. A name can go along way Google your name and see what comes up set aside a honesty box and have people type of what they think about you and see if that is what you want to be known for. Be a person of integrity. It always pains me when I am watching a talk show and I see a man calling a young lady outside of her name and when a female drops the same language back out of her mouth potty mouth. Where are your morals and your social obligation. Be a beacon of light let your business dealings be clean, stand out against evil, wrong, corruption. A successful individual success is only as strong as the legs (credentials) they stand on!
