Be Your Own Wingman

When you’re looking for beaver, it makes sense to look where they would be. That seems so obvious, no matter what you’re tracking. Just look where it would be.

As the video below shows, after some careful observation, I found this particular beaver swimming in the woods, right where I anticipated him to be. Wait, what were you thinking?

So whether its foxes, birds, beavers… or a successful relationship, improved workplace morale, increased finances or better health.
Just look where it would be.

Point is, if you’re having trouble tracking whatever it is you desire, maybe you just need a little practice. If I can be of any assistance, be it a coaching session or a Wingman Workshop for your business, please give me a shout. I’m always happy to help bring some positive energy into any situation and help you do the same. Let’s get started on making your 2014 the best, most fun and productive year of your life.

I hope you find much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving and I appreciate you being part of my community.

Still practicing being positive,

Michael

This past weekend I found myself exploring Providence, RI when I ended up on a small hidden street in a tony area off Blackstone Blvd called Freeman Parkway.  As I looked up and saw the street sign, I saw it as Free Man Pkwy and thought, what a perfect place to do a Wingman Workout.

So I decided to take a ride on the Free Man Pkwy, a small street with a big name.  The implications started flooding over me… what did I want to be free of.

So I began…

I want to be free of worry.  So what is it that I really want?
I want to imagine, to strategically plan, to visualize that which I would like to see, that which I would like to bring about, and that which I would like to create.  That is what I want.

Next…

I want to be free of fear.  So what is it that I really want?
I want to feel courage in the face of fear.  I want to feel the exhilaration of overcoming my fear and triumphing over my challenges.
That is what I want.

Next…

I want to be free of debt.  So what is it that I want?
I want to have financial security, and to appreciate the constant flow of money coming into me.
That is what I want.

As I sat in my car on the Free Man Parkway I silently did a Wingman Workout.
I breathed in the feeling of freedom and visualized a goal to be achieved.
I breathed in the feeling of courage, and quietly thanked my challenges for keeping me sharp.
And I said thank you for the constant flow of money coming in to me.

Directly in front of me as I sat on Freeman Pkwy.

Is there something you would like to be free of?  Is something holding you back from accomplishing your goals? 

Perhaps a Wingman Workout might help.  Responses from my last wingman workout were all positive.

“I loved the Wingman Workout! I felt electrified afterward – like anything was possible. For a few days afterward, I felt very energized and positive. I got a lot done in those 2 days.”

“I loved the session! I felt amazing and it lasted at a fairly high level for several days.”

“Awesome, I began to see my life from a different perspective… was much more optimistic.”

Most people kept practicing one or two of the exercises, mostly, the “It’s going to be a great day”, “Perfect timing”, or “Yes”.

Try them on your own, or if you can, please join me for a Pre-Thanksgiving Wingman Workout on Sunday, 11/24 from 10 – 11:30 am.

I find I’m at my best when I’m able to surround myself with positive energy and that’s how I want to begin the holidays this year.

Hope you can join me.

How you’ll feel during a Wingman Workout

I held my first Wingman Workout this past weekend with good results, but a larger sample size is certainly needed.  
My Wingman Workout is based on the theory that through words and easy movements designed to raise your vibration, we can create a spark of positive energy that will help each of us be more successful in our day to day lives.

I asked all participants to follow up.

70% said they felt more positive, both immediately after and 2-3 days later.
30% said life got in the way, but 4-5 days later reported back to me feeling more positive.

The good news is you can help me. 
I’ve been asked to do my Wingman Workout as the closing session at the Psychic Wellness Expo on Saturday, October 19th at the Runnemede Inn in Runnemede, N.J.  
My workout will be from 4:30-5:20 pm and I would love you to join me and be a part of this fun experiment.  I’m looking to see if the results improve with more participants. 

If it doesn’t work, I’m sorry, and I appreciate you helping me disprove it.
If it does work, and each of us are able to create a little more success because of it, it will be an exciting place to be.

Some replies from participants to the question… “In the name of research, have you felt different?  Better, worse or nothing noticeable”, were:

“Yes!!! YES!!!”

“Received a smallish, distressed call from child.  I was so calm it calmed her and problem solved.”

“Funny you should ask! I had the most amazing day yesterday.”

Maybe you’re looking to increase your business, improve your health or begin building a better relationship?  
Whatever you’re looking to accomplish, wouldn’t it be cool if something so simple can help you achieve your goals?

Come earlier and enjoy the expo, it runs from 10am to 6pm, or come just for my Wingman Workout, but please be ready to begin my session at 4:30. Again, it ends at 5:20 pm.

Come in comfortable clothes.  No mat required.

There aren’t many more vulnerable times then when you’re in a doctor’s office wearing a ‘gown’.  Especially for a mature gentleman (my wife might say that’s an oxymoron) with a couple of young ladies sitting in the room taking notes while we discuss ‘things’.

It was at that moment I thought what a great time to practice.  What a great time to turn this situation from a negative to a positive.

And then, as I was about to start saying my high five, my throat caught a bit as my doctor pulled out a sizeable needle.
“Where you puttin’ that needle, Dude?” I blurted out nervously.
Needless to say, instead of practicing, I got my ass kicked and forgot all about conditioning my mind to be positive.

It was a ‘no big deal’ visit to the doctor that I turned into a “Why Me Pity Party”.

After getting home and licking my wounds, I realized how easy it is to let detrimental thoughts swim freely through my mind.  By 5:00 it was pretty clear I had let those harmful thoughts develop into a negative vibe, which wrapped around me like a strong body odor.  You know what I mean, you can’t smell it on yourself, but others do.

Been there, done that.  Twenty years ago I let those injurious types of thoughts consume me.  Paralyze me. Victimize me.
Doesn’t take long to go from “Singing in the Rain” to just plain rain.

Today I know better, so I summed up the situation quickly and realized what was needed.  An emergency wingman session.
Not just one minute.
Ten Minutes. Whaaaaaaa?
Oh yeah.  Ten minutes of Wingman practices.
Who da man now?

What a valuable 10 minutes it was.

For as I clapped and laughed, yelled out my high five and gave thanks to everything I saw, that stench slid off me like an Irish Spring commercial.
And I learned a powerful lesson.

Nothing can keep me down if I don’t let it.
That’s right, I’m in control of me.

Tomorrow, on my radio show, ‘Condition Your Mind to be Positive” I will do the work for you.
I will demonstrate 5 minutes of conditioning my mind to be positive so you can feel the Vibe.

Click here to listen, http://www.talkexchangeradio.com/#!conditioning-your-mind-to-be-positive/c12rc.

Let my upbeat and confident vibration help you to help yourself.  You’ll be amazed at the energy you can generate with a smile and a few positive words.

Also… Great news.  I have a new office with a small group room and want to start it off with some positivity training.
Join me for my new “Conditioning Your Mind to be Positive” Workshop.
You will feel that spark of positive energy that flows within each of us, and understand how to keep it rolling.
Equally important, we will each set a goal and leave with a blueprint to achieve it.

When:            Saturday, October 5^th, 2013 @ 10 am
Where:          Your Center, 52 Berlin Road, Cherry Hill, NJ 08034.
Cost:               $18, in honor of this being the anniversary of my Bar Mitzvah.
(a spiritual number in Judaism after the word ‘Chai’).

**  Please RSVP as there is room for 12.

Thanks for letting me be your wingman today.
Have a great one.

Speaking with Law of Attraction coaching buddies Paige Saunders Buckler and Beth Evans Hutchison the other day and came up with my latest morning practice. Seemed pretty simple, some might even say downright obvious, although I’ve found sometimes, that what’s obvious to others is not always so obvious to me, and vice versa. And so I practice.

I did this yesterday and it worked really well. Looking forward to more research today.

Step 1: Decide exactly what I want.
For yesterday morning’s practice I decided I want
to be organized.

Step 2: Ask myself why do I want it?
Because I find when my space is organized I find I’m calmer and more efficient.

Step 3: How do I want to feel?
As stated, I want to feel calm and efficient. I also want a sense of relaxed confidence.

Behavior must follow thought.

Step 4: What three Action Steps can I take today to move me me closer to what I want.
1. Clean and straighten my desk.
2. Write up a to do list.
3. Practice actively doing something on my list.
Simple, yet effective, it worked as planned as I was relaxed, confident and extremely efficient in completing my to do list yesterday.

Try it for yourself this morning.
Ask, what do I want? Why Do I want it? How do I want to feel?
And write down 3 action steps.
It’s a great day to start being a more efficient, relaxed, confident you.

Thanks for allowing me to be your wingman today.
In Appreciation,

Michael
