How Bad Do You Want It?

"You can have anything you want in this life if you are willing to do the work to manifest it into your experience." Darnyelle A. Jervey

As I begin this Walk it Out Wednesday's blog, I have one question for you: How bad do you want it? You've been talking about doing it for quite some time. It's been on your goal sheet, vision board, you've shared it with your co workers, yet it is still undone. So I ask again, how bad do you want it?

I meet people everyday who have a dream or desire that they want to come into fruition (so they say,) but if nothing changes, nothing changes. They want it but they haven't begun to work at it or they start it but then get stuck....If you want something bad enough, you will move heaven and earth to get it, won't you?

I was at the top of the MK game but I wanted more. I had just finished my 2nd Pink Cadillac, a time when I should have felt fulfilled and ready to conquer the world, but I was empty. I had given all I had to complete that goal because someone else wanted it for me. How many goals have you completed because of someone else? Immediately following that, I spent some time "Inspecting the Incredible" and during that introspective process, I realized that I had a dream that wasn't being exercised because I was living someone else's dream. Don't get me wrong, I love Mary Kay Ash and her Incredible legacy which gave me the tools and belief enough to dream so big that in and of my own strength it might not be possible. In fact, it was because of Mary Kay that I looked inward and realized that Darnyelle's dream was not much different than Mary Kay's had been, but the manifestation of Darnyelle's dream was significant and it required significant action to make it happen.

You see, from day one of creating my company Incredible One Enterprises, I was clear. I wanted it bad and I was willing to do the work to make it a reality. From reading daily, studying quotes, writing books, practicing my skills, becoming a certified life coach, writing a business plan, building relationships, writing curriculums, I was clear. I wanted it bad. I had spent a lot of my life working to build someone else's dreams and for once, I was going to build my own.

That was the end of 2007. Just two short years later, I am pleased about the places my vision have taken me but I am clear that this party has just gotten started. because I want it bad, my work is speaking louder than the words that I speak. I've had a stellar year and I know that I haven't even begun to shine like the star I was born to be....and I want to help you do the same. I had perfected some strategies that have taken my clients to their next level within the first 3 months of working with me as their coach. I have watched audiences transformed right before my eyes because of the tools and tips I impart to define and unleash the Incredible within...

How bad do you want it? If you answered "bad, real bad." Contact me for a FREE 15-30 minute coaching consultation so that I can assess your situation and prepare to help you to set up the plan of attack that it will take to make it happen. Being willing to make an investment in your dream is the only way to make it a reality. We are dawning on a new year, the year of divine order, wouldn't it be Incredible if your dream fell into the divine order of the universe?

Put More in You than On You

I recently heard a comment that stopped me dead in my tracks...."Today, people are entertainment minded instead of achievement minded." I stopped and let those words sink into my spirit and suddenly it made sense. We are more concerned with the latest and greatest and what this performer, actor, actress, etc is doing with that one than we are for our own ability to achieve our goals in life.

I was saddened as I continued to consider the possibility of the truth of that statement. As the CEO of an empowerment firm, of course this notion goes against everything that I do, everything that I believe but there is validity in the statement; people put more on them, than they put in them. It's a fact. I don't even know if we realize it. Say I (or any other motivational speaker) was having an empowerment event on the same night that your girlfriends were in from out of town and wanted to hit the club. Maybe you had intended to come to my event, but because they felt that there money would be better spent if they were "dropping it like it's hot," you relent and go with them to the club. There's not much fulfilment in making that choice, but countless make it every week. And more over, they don't even care....

What does it matter if you have the latest and greatest clothes if you haven't achieved a goal you set for yourself in 1 year, 3 years, 5 years or more?

I am in prayer that people will start to put more in them by:
1. Spending 15 minutes a day reading something empowerment in nature. Do you realize that if you read just 15 minutes a day, over 2 years, you will have the ability to increase your income substantially based on what you have been reading? 15 minutes a day equates to a minimum of 26 books a year.
2. Instead of listening to the radio when in the car, listening to a CD that will add value to their life - a previous sermon from your pastor, a motivational speaker's cd or a book on cd, which can be rented from the library.
3. Reappropriating their entertainment budget so that some of the budget can be used to solidify goal achievement and invest in themselves instead of material possessions.

This holiday season buy your children a book in addition to the video game; spending time reading together instead of watching television, focus on giving them something that can add value to their life instead of just entertaining them...they will thank you in the long run.

Be Incredible,
Darnyelle
