Today's Message

What Are You Missing?

By Dr. Bruce Eichelberger

The very nature of human awareness causes us to only focus on certain things at any one time. This is extremely beneficial when it comes to activities that require intense focus.

At the same time, this ability to focus can also work against us by keeping us from exploring new ideas, actions and creative ways of thinking. If we get too stuck in one particular 'groove' or way of doing things, we miss out on other opportunities.

Sometimes these opportunities are right in front of us, but because we are only paying attention to the 'usual' things, we miss them. Unless we allow ourselves the opportunity to look outside of our usual patterns, we'll never find out what we are missing.

Case in point: If you haven't yet listened in to "Under Construction with Mr. Black" on Saturday mornings, you're missing an incredible tool for your own personal and business growth. But don't take my word for it. Here are comments sent to the radio station from one of our listeners:

Hello,

I am a graduate of Empower U's leadership training series and I wanted to thank you for providing a forum for my continued personal growth, and that of others. I listened to Scott V. Black's show, live on Saturday - internet streaming 10am PST, and it was a powerful reminder of why I choose to Live My Life Like it Matters. He was as captivating on the radio as he is in person; teaching and sharing his insights into Human Nature and our ability to Want It, Create It and Live It!

I was pleasantly surprised by how relevant and captivating his commentary is, even for those who know nothing about Empower U. The format of the show is very real, and offers a safe way to continue or begin the journey of understanding ourselves and each other a little better.

I have since referred several of my friends and colleagues to your radio station to listen to Mr. Black and others. And, I've downloaded all of his previous shows. This is a great additional tool for all EU graduates, and people in general who want to continue learn and live to their true potential. Thanks again for providing this opportunity to Scott and his team, and this gift to all of your listeners. The more people that hear his wisdom in our world, the better we will all live.

Make it a Great day!!!

All the best,

Toni M. Forsberg, SPHR

Making a Difference: Jennifer Wade, Team 468

I was sent to Empower U by a friend of mine - Someone who, I believed, didn’t really know me very well…He told me about it – I expressed interest and he made it happen. I had no Idea what I was getting myself into…I was nervous - but intrigued. I knew I had lost my passions, my focus in life, and my drive – “what do I want? Where am I going?”…and if this gave me anything to connect with that again – I was open to it.

Well, I never imagined that I’d take away a complete set of skills and a new found belief in myself – my strength, my self worth…learning to fight those walls that I build up as a way to protect myself and end up keeping me in a box –my “so-called comfort zone” – How can that be a comfortable place if it’s what keeps me from being all that I can be and making a difference in the world?

I am a different person today – because I choose to be. I am committed to living each day with 100% passion and focus, and excitement. I have so much potential that I WILL achieve. I am finally living the life I always “talked” about. I am also living my life in a way that I feel is a good example to others.

Sometimes our friends see something in us that we cannot see. My friend gave me the best gift I’ve ever been given – all of the qualities and attributes I ALREADY had – I just wasn’t using them to their complete potential up until now – My focus, passion, vision, support, belief in myself, my strength to get me to step out of my box and most importantly, recognizing my self worth. I am worth it, my life is worth it, my career is worth it, and the relationships in my life are also worth it.

Give this gift – to yourself…YOU are worth it – YOUR LIFE is worth it.
Your time is NOW.
