Emotional Excellence with God, Self & Others.

williamdwinshippersonal — Sat, 29 May 2010 18:22:39 +0000

What does it mean to have emotional excellence? First lets talk about God. What many do to cover their shortcomings is to try to hide from God. Here is an idea, He created you and knows best how you should function and how your life can prosper as it is His desire to see you prosper. This concept brings many a negative response from some who have tried to prosper and simply have lost their way. Prosperity is defined many ways, lets just say that having a real relationship with your creator makes you highly advantaged. In the most simple of ways every thing you do is accounted for and in the end of your journey we will give an account for our stewardship of our life and how we related to others.

Secondly, lets consider our emotional excellence with ourselves. In relationships we sometimes want to hide how we feel and not let others know because they may either make fun of us or ignore our need. Living a life of emotional excellence does not mean having to share every single feeling with every single person, it does mean that in order for you to really have authentic relationship with key contributors it would be highly valuable to share what is really going on inside. Make sure you are kind to yourself and speak well of who you are. An example would be when you fail to meet an expectation, look at the good things you did and realize their significance. Focus on the positive of your contribution rather than the moment that things went south.

Finally, engage with others with confidence. Know that your contribution to their lives advances them and helps them to grow. Listen for opportunities to build up others and avoid tearing them down. When you notice something that is out of character try to consider them a works in progress and example emotional excellence to them. You will start to build long lasting relationships and attract people into your life.

People with Emotional Excellence are some of the greatest people on earth, and you are one of them!

Emotional Intelligence – Never Pack your Wife in a Suitcase

williamdwinshippersonal — Fri, 21 May 2010 01:13:56 +0000

Conflicts happen, people get mad, some people sometimes even become abusive. At the root of these issues may be emotional abuse. Many people live their entire lives not knowing that they suffered abuse, or if they do have some idea that they were abused they may live in denial and never get resolve. We suffer as a nation looking for that pill or quick fix to solve our problems. We seek out professional help, look to others to try to get our needs met. We become keenly aware that there is something desperately wrong. If you admit that you have other personalities, you are diagnosed as having multi personality disorder. If you lack focus and have trouble paying attention you are diagnosed as being ADD or ADHD. If you spend too much time on Facebook, you are told that you have an addictive personality. God forbid you act like a child sometimes and a grown up other times, you then are schizophrenic. Lables, Lables, Lables.

Our society is very judgmental and we create terms and learn new things but in the end, we learn it is all vanity. What I am saying very directly here is that who ever you are, what ever you have become, it is possible to change. We are not animals but humans with a mind and heart. We are capable of overcoming the past events of our lives and learn to react with emotional intelligence. For starters we simply can view the world from the lens of love. If we love one another and believe the best of others we tend to live an empowered and satisfying life.

Choices, Choices, Choices….

Are you emotionally excellent?

Emotional Excellence is key to the needs of our growing worlds. There was a time when my grandfather lived in a small community of people and know everyone by name. LiFE was simple. In the advent of the telephone we were given opportunities to travel in time so to speak and get communicate with people with out even having to drive. NOW we are in a time where we no longer have any real global restrictions and we can communicate by simply turning on our computers. We have all sorts of communities developing, Facebook, twitter, myspace as well as other growing social communities. This new and growing culture requires that we communicate differently. We can no longer put an add in the newspaper with a picture of what we have to sell like my Grandfather, our new culture has to radically changed we must exercise emotional intelligence. In the near future we will see facebook inundated with self serving adds from some very low level promoters who believe that their methods will produce sales. The real truth is that the consumer is much smarter and more able to make informed decisions and will refuse to do business with these kinds of offerings. These soon to be future challenges will force those with real offers to be more innovative, creative and in a state of continuous improvement. Our world is expanding and with this new reach much wisdom needs to be applied. Emotionally Excellent people do the following: Build a strong brand that serves others with little to no expectation of a return. – These type of people are emotionally intelligent and care more about others than they care about their needs. Build a transparent brand. – These types of people hide nothing and are persons who communicate openly. Are people of Integrity. -These types of people do not compromise their values and engage with high level productive conversations. Not time wasters. -These people have a sense of urgency to their work and life, they simply understand the values of time. Love people and prize relationship. -These people have one agenda, that is to build relationships with others. High Self Esteme. – These people walk in confidence and know who they are, they sense their significance and contribution, we have a whole website detected to woman and self esteem (www.ismellsuccess.com)

30 Thousand Woman and two cool men!

williamdwinshippersonal — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 17:39:10 +0000

Recently I had the distinct pleasure of working along side my wife at the southern woman convention in Tennessee. There were approximately 30 thousand woman in attendance. This was a big deal and for a man quite intimating. During this time I had the opportunity to meet a new friend and as you will observe we are both sporting cool hats and have the t-shirt expressing our brand.

The newest and quite exciting development for Winship Global Alliance Group is that we are now investing some time and effort to help woman entrepreneurs gain self esteem and be confidant in the marketplace.

As you will observe in our pictures we have the Ismell brand and Nike side by side. When you consider a brand such as Nike with the tag line “just do it” and ISmell with the tag line “the scent of success” which of the two brands so you most want to associate with? Woman all over identify with success and recognize to remain on top they have to be in tip top shape… so I say to the woman just do it and do it and do it… but do it with confidence!

Lift up your Anchors and Sail…

Lift up your Anchor and Sail.

Recently we wrote a book that is gaining attention from those who have either been stuck, or are finding themselves in a position where they have run aground. The book, Lift up your Anchors and Sail is about how to navigate and remain free to move forward. It makes sense to know your direction and move toward that direction always being concerned about threats, and opportunities along the path of success. It is hard to be the captain sometimes because when you are in danger it is often impossible to know what to do. I remember a day where we were in a small aircraft and I was sitting in the co-pilots seat next to an inexperienced pilot. There were clouds in front of us and he was considering his options. Should we fly around these clouds or go through them. He looked at me and smiled as he determined to fly through. This decision at the time seemed harmless, yet when we did go into these clouds we were tossed to and fro. I understood what it meant to be white knuckled and how an experience like this builds instant character.

Business is like that sometimes, and we need to sometimes learn from out experiences so we are stronger, more capable and even on the other side more confident.

Lifting up your anchors and sailing means you take risk, you learn to focus and move ahead. Just remember, it does not mean you keep holing the anchor. Let the anchor go, take your position at the helm.

What’s important…

williamdwinshippersonal — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 22:43:53 +0000

Its Friday, we are exhausted, its been a long week. As I write this blog I think about what is truly important, what have I been giving my life to and for. We get so used to running the race it sometimes makes you wonder if at the end of life the refection you of your life will be worth the race. All day it seemed that I sat in my car, drove and had numerous conversations with business owners answering a myriad of questions as it relates to success. The questions ranged from what ideas would advance them, how financial systems really work to the fragmented relationships that stifle growh.

As I reflect for just today, I think about the challanges I heard, the ideas I shared and wheather that work I do is worth giving my life for and to.

This is the Zillion Dollar question, because life can end at any moment, and the idea that your life mattered becomes more and more relevant.

I had a goal at the end of the day to simply make a fire and sit idol and enjoy the heat and simply relax. The idea fueled me and gave me a reason to stay on course and finish the race. Sometimes it is the little things that mean the most.
