'Too much' and 'Too little'

'Too much' and 'Too little'
I said last posting that I would talk about: "What are you pretending not to know".
Here it is:

Too much

How can we have too much when we create what we have?

Too many bills?
Too long at work?
Too many 'friends' that only send jokes or chain messages without a personal note?
Too many demands on your time?
Too many chores?
Too many health issues?
Too many mean drivers?

You get the idea.

Change your intent.
Results are measured by successfully carrying out your intent.
Change your intent until you get the results you want.

Too little

See how little you can get along with.
Too little money?
Too little time? (Now there is a common excuse!)
Too little love?
Too little conversation?
Too little enjoyment?

Change your intent.
Results are measured by successfully carrying out your intent.
Change your intent until you get the results you want.

I said last posting that I would talk about: "What are you pretending not to know".

There it is.

Just change your intent, and the results will change. Period.

The best example of this in my cab owner/driver days:

Ted came to work and said it was going to be a slow day, because it was Saturday of the weekend and payday was Tuesday. He asked if he could take the day off.
I replied that if he would just go out with the intent to make a pile of money, he would change the day for himself.

He went out to the airport and picked up a fare that he drove to Fairbanks, and made about $450 for himself. A regular good day was about $130.00 for a day.
You see, it was COLD in Fairbanks and the ice fog was THICK. Airport shut down.

Being a smart cab driver, he went out to the airport in Fairbanks and went into the bar and said to the bar tender that he would drive any two people to Anchorage for individual fares of $150 each. He had a bidding war and collected $200 each from three women.

All in all he grossed about $900 that day for a slow day.

Intent. Opportunity. Fortune. Attitude.
You choose.

Fare is paid for this ride. Ted got so drunk celebrating that night after returning to Anchorage, that he called me about 3:30 a.m.and I took him home in the same cab for free.
He never missed the chanced to drive a shift again.
Oh yeah, I made about $100 for the short shift I drove that night after Ted got back to Anchorage.
Intent.
