What are the three things that we need to focus on when we build a business?  Hard question! But there are hundreds of things that need attention, I hear you say.  My top 3 are “Mindset, Mechanics and Money… Three focus points to achieve business success”

In brief, let`s look at just one aspect of ‘MINDSET’?     Lets look at “Obsession”.

Obsession by definition is … and you take your pick. What does obsession mean to you?

• compulsion
• delusion
• enthusiasm
• fascination
• infatuation
• mania
• passion
• phobia
• preoccupation
• attraction
• case
• complex
• craze
• crush
• fancy
• fetish

Who do we all know who has this mindset?  … ‘obsession’ 

“Obsession” —  Whether it be Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Richard Branson, Bill Gates or other hugely successful luminaries.  Their almost 24 hour a day attention to achieving their ‘big hairy audacious goal’ has been observed and talked about so much. WE know their names, their businesses and we are ‘green and admire’ their stuff.

‘Mindset, Mechanics, Money’…. we need and want all 3!

Their mindset is not willing to let go until success is achieved. Failure after failure after failure …. then SUCCESS!   Gutsy isn`t it.   I`d like a bit more of that energy!!

How about you, what do you consider when you see or read about their successes? 

 

I was really motivated to share this with you, after I read an article by a colleague and alliance member of mine;  David Scott Lofthouse`s. (The link to his whole article is below.  And I thank him for the permission to share this with you).

Here is a brief exert …..

Steve Jobs was legendary for it. Elon Musk nearly went broke for it. Jeff Bezos practically owns the Internet because of it. 

What does it take to make a huge mark in the world of business or technology? To join the ranks of Elon Musk or Richard Branson? What quality is required to ride out the losses and setbacks and accomplish what you are trying to accomplish?

There are countless articles on the Internet that talk about the “habits of highly effective people” or the common denominator of all billionaires. This article isn’t about a set of habits.

If you have a desire to be that class of entrepreneur, you will know after reading this article that there is no “how-to” answer on the Internet or anywhere else. It’s simpler (and a whole lot harder) than that.

Climate change could dramatically impact the quality, price and production of so many of the things we love in our lives. Whether it be coffee or chocolate production and availability at pretty OK prices! Whether it be our sustainable vegetables or fruit!

……………………………..

Whether it be the grains and seeds we need for a balanced diet! Whether it be the fish resources in our seas and lakes! We all need these for our health and nourishment?

……………………………..

What foods are we prepared to live with out? What can we do, as individuals, as families and as communities to ensure there is a plentiful supply for now and into the future? I don`t know about you, but I feel pretty hopeless about what actions I can take now and into the future.

……………………………..

So this blog post is about me sharing some information about living in a sustainable world. I do want to touch your emotions and your thinking and your taste-buds! ... and I do want to try to influence you to be an action taker.

……………………………..

> I want to share with you a few ideas and what Ive chosen to do as my solutions to live in a healthier, cleaner energy world.

……………………………..

You may wish to check out what I`m doing. I`m not an expert, but I am very passionate about addressing the damaged health of our planet.

……………………………..

> I want to encourage you to share this post with others.  I believe that if lots of people take small action power steps about addressing climate change … well it all adds up!

And about CHOCOLATE!

And about Coffee!

Check out this article from CNBC — A Sustainable Energy Report.  They refer to reports, give us information and ask us questions.

……………………………..

Here is a brief extract. (The full article can be accessed below). Extreme weather events and rising temperatures could slash areas where coffee can be grown by as much as 50 percent by 2050, according to Sydney, Australia-based The Climate Institute.  

……………………………..

“Over 2.25 billion cups of coffee are consumed around the world every day, with nearly half of Australians drinking coffee regularly,” John Connor, CEO of The Climate Institute, said in a statement.

……………………………..

“Yet coffee is just one of a multitude of things increasingly subject to negative climate impacts, and its negative flow-on effects,” Connor added.

Bill Gates Interview

Bill Gates is a strong voice about the need to act now. In this October 13, 2015 interview, Bill Gates shares indisputable facts about the problems we face as members of the world community.

……………………………..

Yes, we have issues to deal with. Bill gates suggests that research and development monies from the richest countries in the world needs to increase.

……………………………..

This is critical as one of the steps to bringing better sustainability energy-wise to our planet.

You can access the full Bill Gates video interview here.

Let`s make sure that this doesn`t happen!  ‘That We Can`t Live Without Chocolate Or Coffee’.

I want to use an analogy from my time as a teacher and educator in primary schools in South Australia.

I worry a lot about the amount of bullying that happens within the classroom, within schools and within society in general. Whatever the issue, gender, race, religion, culture, skin color, etc etc  — we are all equal and have the right to be safe and secure and have the right to show our unique brilliance in the world. Agree? So why do the bullies continue to have power and what can we do to stop their power! 

……………………………..

The SOLUTION IS pretty simple but it takes courage and action on the spot and to stand up to bullies and not to be a bystander!

……………………………..

Yes we need to stop being bystanders and call out bullying every time we see it!> And it`s the same with Climate Change.

……………………………..

We need to take some sort of action! If everyone on the planet gets activated. If everyone becomes more aware of what options they have, then little by little each of our actions added together will make a difference. Yes, the sum of our actions will be considerable! I`m sure you will agree!

“A more sustainable future can start with you.   So what actions can we take”?

Here are a few ideas.

1. Conserve our use of energy, electricity, gas and look into solar.
2. Limit as best is possible the loss of heating and cooling into the atmosphere.
3. Pollution from vehicle exhaust is a problem, just a little savings here and there will be positive.
4. And whatever it might take that suits you best.
5. Promote positive ideas to people you know.

Help the environment and switch to an energy provider which offsets energy use sustainable ways.  (And there are a number of companies that may do this, but ….)

……………………………..

My company of choice is Viridian Energy.  (in USA and Australia -as of October 2016).   Why? — because Viridian offers energy that is 50% offset against renewable energy actions.  This may be a choice for you too.
