Spin It and Win It

Washers and Dryers…

You know, the new ones with the pedestals…just a metal box, maybe with a drawer, for at least $200 more…each. Designed so you don’t have to bend over.

The day you start making decisions upon moving less is the day you start aging a little more.

PS. That also goes with parking spaces folks.

“Our” Problems…

Dr Vik — Fri, 18 May 2012 17:20:37 +0000

If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back.

Past, Present or Future??

Dr Vik — Thu, 17 May 2012 17:19:53 +0000

The grass seems to be always greener somewhere else…

You can live in the Past which is over, live in the Future which is not here, or choose to live in the Present…all up to you.

A good rule of thumb is:

1. REMEMBER the Past.
2. DREAM your Future.
3. LIVE in the Present.

Let it Rip??

Dr Vik — Wed, 16 May 2012 17:19:14 +0000

Sometimes you just got to…

To stray untethered or to be totally free is a great balancing tool!

Yes, we need to produce and focus on the very things that help us take our lives to the next level, but just as important, we occasionally need to take the ‘Collar” off.

So when it comes to your exercise, eating, focus or just relaxing…sometimes you just got to “Let it Rip”!

Doing it Right…

Dr Vik — Tue, 15 May 2012 17:18:35 +0000

Is a pretty good recipe for success, whatever the case may be.

Even though there is no universal “Right” way in every situation or by definition, we seem to know in our hearts the “Right” way.

So if it takes just a bit more of your time or effort…I personally cannot ever remember a time when “Doing it right” hasn’t been worth it.

Why do we have to get older??

Dr Vik — Mon, 14 May 2012 17:17:48 +0000

I don’t know, but we all age… regretfully.

When I first moved to Las Vegas to be with Zappos, I went to this haircut place where it’s really bright inside.

When they finished, they spun me around and asked me how I liked the back….I couldn’t believe it!!! It was the first time I saw the back in years and you could see my scalp through the thinning hair! Yikes.

I no longer let them spin me around as I now trust they did a good job in the back:)
But to “Spin it and win it”, at least I don’t get up in the morning, sore, and know that’s about as good as it gets.

Compliments…

Dr Vik — Fri, 11 May 2012 17:17:05 +0000

At work, is not only is talked about at work, but is brought home and talked about at
home, making work and home a pleasure for the one who received the compliment and for
those others around them.

Regretfully, criticism has the same effect at work and at home, but not with the same
results.

So be careful what you say to others as it affects more than just the moment.

Saving Money??

Dr Vik — Thu, 10 May 2012 17:14:26 +0000

People try to save what’s “left over” but as you know , in reality, there is NOTHING EVER “left over”.

So paying yourself first is key.

About 25% of the people I coach have opened up a 10% savings account, putting 10% of every check they receive into savings, or paying themselves first, if you will.

That leaves them free to spend the rest and not feel guilty, because they have already saved…and with saving just 10%, they usually don’t miss it.

How would your situation be different if you saved 10% of every check you ever received??

A Challenge…

…Shared is a challenged halved.

You may have heard that…

After the chess game, the King and pawn go back into the same box.

But more importantly, in the next game, they both get a fresh start.
