Love dare day 35

Find a marriage mentor - someone who is a strong Christian and who will be honest and loving with you. IF you feel that counseling is needed, then take the first step to set up an appointment. During this process, ask God to direct your decisions and discernment.

Questions: Who did you choose? Why did you select this person? What do you hope to learn from them?

Well we don't have A marriage mentor per say. I don't believe I have anyone in my life that fits this discription yet. HOwever, we have or are in the midst of setting up a couples counsel. Meaning that a couple that we are friends with who's the husband is completing the love dare challenge, will be meeting with us once a month to discuss our relationships and where we are going and how to go to the next step. I believe that this counsel may start as only the 4 of us but could rapidely expand into a large group of couples.

That's my plan.

Love dare day 34

Find a specific, recent example when your spouse demonstrated Christian character in a noticeable way. Verbally commend them for this at some point today.

Questions: What example did you choose to recongize? How many other ways could you celebrate their growth in godliness? How could you encourage them to persevere in it?

Well, God has his way to connect things and has an amazingly timing factor. My father in law had a negative perception towards one of our neighbors down the street because their dog was out of control and would whined up on our yard. Funny thing about perceptions is that with out really knowing them, we kind of step further away from them rather then trying to get to know them better. So out of know where, Josianne was walking our baby and their dog came running straight towards her and Noah. However, instead of flipping out and getting really upset and letting the neighbors have it, she kept her calm and took the time to talk with the out of breath neighbor who had just rushed out the front door to get a hold of their dog. Now, we have 2 new friends in the area and get a good laugh about how they are having trouble training their dog. Now that took courage and I commended her on it. WOW Iwhat a way to change a perception in a heart beat. Good for you Jos.

THanks

Love dare day 33

Recognize that your spouse is integral to your future success. Let them know today that you desire to include them in you upcoming decisions, and that you need their perspective and counsel. If you have ignored their input in the past, admit your oversight and ask them to forgive you.

Questions: What are some upcoming decisions you can make together? What did you learn today about the role of your mate?

Funny how since the begginning of the year I have learned to intergrate my wife' opinion more and more in my decision making. I am launching my coaching business and every step is a crutial one and not just client based but also indentifying spouse's needs in order to keep balance in the whole process.

So what upcoming decisions am I making and including my wife's input in... well all of them for I have realised just what a difference in our relationship this process can be. Hahahah doesn't mean I HAVE to follow everything she says, but a could negotiation once in a while is also healthy for us.

Thanks.

Love dare day 32

If at all possible, try to initiate sex with your husband or wife today. Do this in a way that honors what your spouse has told you (or implied to you) about what they need from you sexually. Ask God to make this enjoyable for both of you as well as a path to greater intimacy.

Questions: Was this a satisfying experience for you? If it didn't turn out the way you'd hoped, what do you think is complicating matters? Have you committed this to prayer? If it was a true blessing for both of you, what can you learn from this for the future?

Hum... right now having the fact that she is still in remission from having the baby, I don't believe is a question of sexual urge, but more a physicaly pain situation. It's funny that you mention prayer, for this had never crossed my mind to pray for intimacy that way? I have prayed for me and my urges and my thoughts to be centered around my wife and not the internet and since I have launched theses prayers, I have felt a shift and it has dramatically changed our intimacy level. However, physically, it's a challenge right now and I pray for patience and compassion. Now I get to pray for a greater sexual relationship with my wife. Wow what a concept. Funny how it slipped my mind and that it was always right there in my face.

Thank you Lord.

Love dare day 31

Is there a "leaving" issue you haven't been brave enough to conquer yet? Confess it to your spouse spouse today, and resolve to make it right. The oneness of your marriage is dependent upon it. Follow this with a commitment to your spouse and to God to make your marriage the top priority over every human relationship.

Questions: Has this been a hard thing for you to deal with? How has it affected your relationship? If the worse offender in theis area is your spouse (with your in-laws), how can you lovingly move this toward a better situation?

I don't believe I have a leaving issue, I rather have a being left issue ha! My father has passed away and my mother has moved to another continent. My wife knows about this and is very supportive about the whole thing. I have make a lot of progress in the area of healing and forgiveness.

I think, that I still choose to work on this issue, however, I don't believe this is a problem in my relationship.

Thanks.

Robert

The love dare day 30

Isolate one area of division in your marriage, and look on today as a fresh opportunity to pray about it. Ask the lord to reveal anything in your own heart that is threatening oneness with your spouse. Pray that He would do the same for them. And if appropriate, discuss this matter openly, seeking God for unity.

Questions: Did the Lord open your eyes to anything new that might be giving fuel to this point of disagreement? How do you intend to respond? What do you hope to see God do in your spouse as well?

I don,t believe at this point in time that the Lord has opened my eye on anything new. However, it is and has been a continuing and progressing progress of awarness and introspection.

It's funny how coming close down to the wire I seem to be running out of gas. I seem to be slipping and not being as involved directly as I was. I'm still in the mood and in the mindset, however, I had lost the discipline of the everyday reading and stuff.

I choose to recommit and finish as strong as I can.

Thanks

Love dare day 29

Before you see your spouse again today, pray for them by name and for their needs. Whether it comes easy for you or not, say "I love you", then express love to them in some tangible way. Go to God in prayer again, thanking Him for Giving you the privilege of loving this one special person - unconditionally, the way He loves both of you.

Questions: How will this change of motivation affect your relationship and reactions? What does this inspire you to do? What does it inspire you to stop doing?

This inspire me to stop looking for the speck in my wifes eye and take the post out of mine. It has waken me to the fact that I have been nagging her on many different subjects when the anger and frustration should of been deflected towards me and my actions. This is a huge eye opener for me and I have been praying for many people, but never have I really thought to pray for someone so close to my heart.

This has changed my thoughts and inspires me to use God as the best "go to guy" their is.

Thanks

love dare day 28

What is one of the greatest needs in your spouse's life right now? Is there a need you could lift from their shoulders today by a daring act of sacrifice on your part? Whether the need is big or small, purpose to do what you can to meet the need.

Questions: How much of your mate's stress is caused by your lack of concern or initiative? When you expressed a desire to help, how did they receive it? Are there other needs you could meet?

Right now the biggest need I choose to take care of is to let my spouse the freedom of choice by being able to efficiently provide for the family. Since I've launched my business's 3 years ago, she has not let herself dream or think of what she would like to do feeling trapped and unable to do such a thing AND be the soul provider.

THis is huge for me and I have been working on liberating her from this burden for some time and choose to continue to do so for as long as it takes for Jos to not feel the need to sacrifice her needs and wants because of a financial situation.

Are there other needs to be taken care of, I'm pretty sure there are and to be quite honest, since our communication level is rising, I get to find out just how and in what way I can better help my wife. So yes, other areas of need are open and I am stepping into fulfilling those needs as well while still keeping on eye on the big picture.

Thanks.

Love dare day 27

Eliminate the poison of unrealistic expectations in your home. Think of one area where your spouse has told you you're expecting too much, and tell them you're sorry for being so hard on them about it. Promise them you'll seek to understand, and assure them of your unconditional love.

Questions: When you place high expectations on your spouse that they don,t feel internally motivated to attain, what does that tell you about yourself? What are some better ways do deal with these disconnects?

This was a great continuous dare. I believe for the last couple of days, the dare has not been separeted but a series of continous thoughts on pretty much the same subject. Well, for me I guess because everything that I needed forgiveness around and now the unrealistic expectations is based pretty much on the same subject. So what does that tell me? Well it tells me that I'm going at it the wrong way and that putting presure in a nagging form doesn't help create the relationship that I want. Worse, the fact that they don't even want to do the effort because of the expectations of it all could lead to things a lot worse.

Again, communication for me is key and also thinking outside the box. I believe for I have seen it grow over the last 27 days, that being more intuitive with my spouse, making sure her needs are filled creates a space for her to WANT to do the same with me. It's just amazing. So whenever I feel that way again.. that she isn't pulling her weight in turns of MY needs, I can remember this reflexion and ask myself, what have I done for HER lately.

Thanks

Love dare day 26

Take time to pray through your areas of wrongdoing. Ask for God's forgiveness, then humble yourself enough to admit them to your spouse. Do it sincerely and truthfully. Ask your spouse for forgiveness as well. No matter how they respond, make sure you cover your responsibility in love. Even if they respond with criticism, accept it by receiving it as counsel.

Questions: What does your mate need to see in order to believe that your confession was more than just words?

Great question and great task. And the answer is action. I have long neglected my wife in the area of touch. Hugs, little kisses, massages, all the little non sexual things that take a couple of seconds to do and that create a warm and loving environnement. So what am I commiting to do, one step at a time, is to integrate special welcomes when she or I come home, to make sur I take the time for hugs and kisses and I love you's every day and last but not least give her as many massages as she wants.

Love dare day 25

Whatever you haven't forgiven in your mate, forgive it today. Let it go. Just as we ask Jesus to "forgive us our debts" each day, we must ask him to help us "forgive our debtors" each day as well. Unforgiveness has been keeping you and your spouse in prison too long. Say from your heart "I choose to forgive".

Questions: what did you forgive your spouse for today? How long have you been carrying the weight of it? what are the possibilities now that you've released this matter to God?

To be honest, I haven't been holding much towards my wife. Although, there is A matter I chose to let go and forgive my spouse for I truly believe it's not her fault. I have been carrying around this weight for quite some time and have used my released addiction to cope with the situation. Now I'm anticipating my reaction now that I don,t have that evacutation valve. I put all my trust in God to keep me patient, loving, compassionate and not moody. I'm already feeling a shift in my irritability and I choose to pray more and give more of my thoughts and my challenges to God.

Thanks

Love dare day 24

End it now. Identify every object of lust in your life and remove it. Single out every lie you've swallowed in pursuing forbidden pleasure and reject it. Lust cannot be allowed to live in a back bedroom. It must be killed and destroyed - today - and replaced with the sure promises of God and a Heart filled with HIS perfect love.

Questions: What did you identify as an area of lust? What has this pursuit cost you over time? How has it led you away from the person you want to be? Write about your new commitment to seek HIM - and to seek your spouse - rather than seeking after foolish desires.

This is huge for me. Not that I'm always looking out for other woman but have always like to get an eye full. The only way out for me is to ask for help from GOD. I choose this because I know that what's out there to be seen has sometimes diminished my sex drive. This is a start of a whole new way to live with God and I'm looking forward to harvesting it's fruit.

THank you for this book.
Robert

Love dare day 23

Remove anything that is hindering your relationship, any addiction or influence that's stealing your affections and turning your heart away from your spouse.

Questions: What did you throuw out first? Are there others that need to go as well? What do you hope the removal of these things will do for you, your marriage, and your relationship with God?

2 things I have removed and that I also choose to keep silent for the sake of the www. However, I believe that removing these addictions will do great wonders for myself, my self esteem with in turn will allow me to be in a better position to create the environment I am seeking in my relationship.

I think I will become even closer to God, because the only way I can get free from these addictions is through God's grace.

tks

Love dare day 22

Love is a choice, not a feeling. It is an initiated action, not a knee-jerk reaction. Choose today to be committed to love even if your spouse has lost most of their interest in receiving it. Say to them today in words similar to these, " I love you. Period. I choose to love you even if you don't love me in return."

Questions: Why is this kind of love impossible without the love of Christ beating in your heart? How des His presence within you enable you to love, even when it's primarily one-sided?

Things have been more challenging for me during the last couple of days. The dares or less on my mind and a feeling of frustration towards my wife has slowly sneeked in. Yes, I have the feeling of being the only working on creating a better space and realised that yes, my love was linked to coincidences. If she's likable, I will like her.. something like that.

So today I took the liberty to have a heart to heart with my wife and at first it was almost a "bitching" fest on my part. You don't do this, you should do that... and realised that what I was asking of her, I wasn't ready to do it myself or not on a regular basis at least. So I recommitted to create the space for her to willingly express her love.

To do so by myself is impossible. To allow myself to love regardless of if my spouse is receptive or not is a feat only Christ our savior can master with me. I don't believe that it's humanly possible to love at such a deep and powerful level with only our human intentions. No matter how true the intentions may be.

WOW, so half way through the challenge and I am realising that this book brings you toward a much deeper path than I had expected. Humm... the tide is changing and I'm slowly realising just how much more love I can bring to the game if only I choose to let Christ in and help me.

Thanks

Love dare day 21

Be intentional today about making a time to pray and read your Bible. Try reading a chapter out of proverbs each day (there are 31 - a full month's supply), or reading a chapter in the Gospels (mathieu, mark, luke and john). As you do, immerse yourself in the love and promises God has for you. This will add to your growth as you walk with him.

Questions: How do you think spending time daily with God will change your situation and perspective? How can you make HIM a bigger part of your day?

Wow, you see this has been the biggest challenge I have been facing for a very long time. It's so simple and yet, I choose not to set aside the proper time to read a couple of lines in God's holy speach. I'm a little frustrated with myself and choose now to stop that. It is what it is and everything I have done has brought me to this point in my life. I can now choose to change or stay the same and I choose to start reading a proverb everyday for the nurturing of my soul.

I work so hard on increasing all aspects of my life and have lost focus on what's more important. Although I talk to God through Jesus with help from the Holy spirit everyday, it's more of a monologue than a dialogue if I don't take the time to listen to what he has to say.

So you see, I didn't even complete this dare yesterday. HUGE A HA!

Thanks for the dare.

RObert

Love dare day 20

Dare to take God at this Word. Dare to Trust Jesus Christ for salvation. Dare to pray " Lord Jesus", I'm a sinner. But you have shown your love for me by dying to forgive my sins, and you have proven your power to save me from death by your ressurrection. Lord, change my heart, and save me by your grace.

Questions: write about what this experience has been like for you. Even if you are only renewing your commitment to receive and express His love, what has He shown you today?

Well what I am discovering is that it is true, I can't do this only by my own will. I have been trying to do so for the last 20 days and so for so good. However, I can feel myself wearing out. Thinking to myself, ok well how can I keep this "effort" up for the next 20 or moreso the next 20 days? Even though my wife and I are on good terms, the new baby has completely shattered our intimicy and together time. So it has been a challenge not to let my frustration take over when you feel like you're alone in this and that you're the only one making the efforts.

That,s exactly what dare 19 and 20 have been teaching is that it has nothing to do with the other person. It's all about commitment and a TRUE desire to love regardless of the conditions or situations and to do so, there's only one true way and that is to ask Jesus for help and that he may OPEN my heart to a whole other level so that I may experience love in a more profond way.

God bless this book.

Robert

Love dare day 19

Look back over the dares from previous days. Were there some that seemed impossible to you? Have you realized your need for God to change your heart and to give you the ability to Love? Ask Him to show you where you stand with him, and ask for the strength and grace to settle your eternel destination.

Questions: What do you believe God is saying to you? Is there a stirring in your heart? What decision have you made in response to this?

I believe God is saying that I'm on the right track and to keep on pushing the limits of who I am and what I can do to improve myself, my marriage and help improve the lives of others. Yes I believe there is stirring in my heart and this stirring is not completely clear. However, I am starting to feel the effect of the love dare challenge which is for me to complete the 40 day challenge in True choice.

What decision have I made, well I choose to check in on myself and make sure I'm still making the right choices for the right reasons. I choose to continue to pursue personnal betterment.

Love dare day 18

Prepare a special dinner at home, just for the 2 of you. The dinner can be as nice as you prefer. Focus this time on getting to know your spouse better, perhaps in areas you've rarely talked about. Determine to make it an enjoyable evening for you and your mate.

Questions: What did you learn about your spouse that you didn't know before? How could you continue this process of discovery in other ways, at other times? What were some of the moments that made this evening memorable?

Well I have to tell you that the 20 questions in the appendixe really kicked it off for us. I invented a story about what I was reading and that I thought it would be interesting if you read the questions together and both answered them honestly and openly. IT was really kind of GREAT. The questions were awsome and we realised that we are very intuned with each other. We both know where we stand and what we both choose to work on to create a better living environment for us.

Funny though, this process has again helped my wife start to really question herself in regards to who she wants to be and how she would want to live her life. I also discovered a couple of little things in regards to what was the thing that made her feel loved and stuff. Hummmm, really great dare and I'm not going into to much detail, for a lot of it is private... but really worth doing with the 20 question liste.

Tk

Love dare day 17

Determine to guard your mate's secrets (unless they are dangerous to them or to you) and to pray for them. Talk with your spouse, and resolve to demonstrate love in spite of these issues. Really listen to them when they share perosnal thoughts and struggles with you. Make them feel safe.

Questions: How much of an effort is it for you to hold back from saying something, critical or otherwise? What have you learned about your spouse today, simply from listening?

Yes I have had a lot of trouble not to give advice when anyone speaks actually. It comes spontaneosly and I know that most of the time most people just want to vent and not be told how to handly things. I choose to continue to work on this. However, I have contained myself as I say to myself that my role is not to teach my wife but to support her in any way possible that fits HER NEEDS and not my need to feel superior.

Funny thing, again prayer really works. By listening to my wife speak, how she answered and even the questions she asked, I have realised that she is in the midst of discovering who she wants to be in this world. This is fantastic for in the past, I have pushed her and cornered her and put pressure on her for her to move in that direction. Now that I have, for a while, stopped coaching and supporting instead, she is ever so slightly taking herself on and that's the best gift a husband can receive, for a fulfilled wife is an ever so loving wife.

thanks again.

Love dare day 16

Begin praying today for your spouse's heart. Pray for the three specific areas where you desire for God to work in your spouse's life and in your marriage.

Questions: Have you experienced the power of prayer in the past? What did you choose to pray about? Was it easy for you, or did it feel foreign to you?

Yes I have experienced the power of prayer before and praying is now part of who I am. My purpose in life to to create the best relationship I can with God, so it did comes easily. However, to my suprise, I realised I had never really prayed for my wife. So this was quite an eye opener.

I prayed for her to find her own way to increase her relationship with God and that she may be proud and firm about it. It doesn't have to look a certain way and it doesn't have to look my way or her famillies way. Let her find her own way.

Then I prayed for God to help her find her true calling, her passion, her mission, her God given mission, the ways she wants to impact this world and find peace and happiness within herself. Which leads to my 3rd prayer which was excatly that. That God my help Jos to accept, love and appreciate all of who she is for all she is and is not and has and has not.

Excellent dare.
Thanks

Love dare day 15

Choose a way to show honor and respect to your spouse that is above your normal routine. It may be holding the door for her. It might be putting his clothes away for him. It may be the way you listen and speak in your communication. Show your mate that he or she is highly esteemed in your eyes.

Questions: how did you choose to show honor? What was the result? What are some other ways you could demonstrate honor in the coming days?

Well, honestly, I didn't really no what to do. So I decided to be creative and show her honor by applying many of the past dares and also a bit more. Here's how: I asked her if there is anything that I could do to help her out today or if she needed anything done. She gave me an unexpected phone call to make which I intend to complete by the end of this week (the person wasn't in). Then I offered to make supper with her and at the same time have a "how you doing" light conversation. Then to top things off, I honored her by not spending money by not bying anything at the Tim Horton's during my coaching session. She has long been trying to get me to understand the meaning about saving and that every little things counts. I honored her jugment and told her I did.

What was the result.... at least of the last act, I think it really struck her that I was activily taking action in bettering myself. I think she sees the effort and this helps with everything.

How are some other ways I could honor her, well by redoing the dares. All what we have been doing are acts of Honoring in some way or another and as challenging it may be at some times, I choose to intergrate this acts as part as my daily routine. 40 days is one thing, a life together another and I choose to BE actively engaged in making this marriage better every year.

Love dare day 14

Purposefully neglect an activity you would normally do so you can spend quality time with your spouse. Do something he or she would love to do or a project they'd really like to work on. Just be together.

Questions: What did you decide to give up? What did you do together? How did it go? What new thing did you learn (or relearn) about your spouse?

Well I decided that instead of running all the erands that I had to do, I went straight home after my coaching session to BE with my wife. However, the challenge was that when I got home she used my pressence as a way for her to get some rest while I took care of the baby. I laughed about it with her later that afternoon, saying that I had purposely not run my erands to be with her and that we both used that time to do other things.

So then we decided to take care of the baby together. I see that it doesn't always turn out the way I would've wished it look like, but it's the intention that's the real key.

See you tomorrow.

Love dare day 13

Talk to your spouse about establishing healthy rules of engagement. If your mate is not ready for this, then write out your own personal rules to "fight" by. Resolve to abide by them when the next disagreement occurs.

Questions: If your spouse participated with you, what was their response? What rules did you write for yourself?

Having already been through a "klemmer" seminar which had taken on this exact same topic, it was quite easy to set up the ground rules for any futur argument. Josianne was very willing and open and we both wondered why we waited over a full year before setting this up. So basically our trigger word is:

• C'est la Crise! It's a french phrase meaning it's on!
• Then we go into 2 minute rounds, where the caller get's first go.
• Rules: No swearing, keep a low voice (no yelling), stay on subject, no going back into the past, no going to sleep angry
• Last but not least, make room for new rules to come in as we progress as a couple and that we learn to keep fighting fare.

Great dare!

love dare day 12

Demonstrate love by willingly choosing to give in to an area of disagreement between you and your spouse. Tell them you are putting their preference first.

Questions: What issue did you choose? What did giving in cost you? How will this help you in the future?

Well this was quite a challenge for we don't have that many topics of disagreement, unless we are both tired and then I get into argumental mode. So today was a bit of a challenge for I was looking for a conversation or a current topic that could be used for todays dare.

What I found was the situation regarding where to baptise Noah. I liked the idea of having here, in our town and Jos thought it would be cool to do it in their old home town. I used this situation and worked on discovering how I felt with all this rather than focusing on is this the right topic.

I realised, that even with something as small as this, it's not that easy for me to give in. I really must be focused on creating a better relationship with Jos to just let go of my ideas. However, I have to say that I have been practicing this for a while now. Especially when we get into arguments. I know how demanding it is for me to say I'm sorry and I'm wrong right there and then during the argument and not a couple of hours later. It's funny because I had the opportunity to do so only a couple of days ago... to bad the dare didn't fall on that day, but nevertheless, it was a great exercise and one I choose to keep working at. Because I believe that letting go for the benefit of the relationship is key to a long lasting marriage.

Thanks

love dare day 11

What need does your spouse have that you could meet today? Can you run an errand? Give a back rub or foot massage? Is there housework you could help with? Choose a gesture that says, I cherish you and do it with a smile.

I choose to put everything else I had to do this afternoon, sit down and plan our meals for the week and go do the groceries. To be honest, it took a lot out of me, because I am tired theses days. My mind is full and I have a lot of DIFFERENT things going on. Creating a name for myself in coaching, taking care of the business transfer, making sure things get done around the house, taking time for my wife, my son and ohhhh yeah, lets not forget me.

So what I also did today, is made sure I changed my perception on things. This is not another task that I add on to an already full schedual. No, this is a live commitment that I CHOOSE to do in a fun and loving way. This really helped me out and helped me change my mood.

Besides, when I saw the look on my wife's face when this heavy task was already done for this week and we we're only friday... It was all worth the effort.

Thanks

Love dare day 10

Do something out of the ordinary today for you spouse - something that proves (to you and to them) that your love is based on your choice and nothing else. Wash her car, Clean the kitchen, buy his favorite dessert. Fold the laundry. Demonstrate love to them for the sheer joy of being their partner in marriage.

Reflexion questions: Has your love in the past been based on your spouse's attributes and behaviour, or on your commitment? Humm excellent question. I would have to say that my love or should I say, the demonstration of my love has been based on my wife's attributes and behaviours most of the time. It's quite a challenge to stay focused on creating a 10/10 relationship when you are angry, irritated or just tired of your spouse's behaviours.

The fun thing that I'm realising is that even though I thought she was the problem, most of the time, I was the problem or at least not part of the solution. Being more focused on your commitment allows you to see things completely differently, just like today, where I found this dare to be quite challenging. I was very tired and brain dead. I just wanted a day off and I found myself ressisting to demonstrate an "out of the ordinary" action.

However, I got over myself and offered my wife a massage. This might not seem like much, but to her and to me this is huge, for I had lost the desir to give massages. Funny thing, before this action, I was tired and cranky. After offering the massage, I am more energetic, more patiente and a lot happier. What a notice.

2nd reflexion question: How can I continue to show love when it's not returned in a way I hoped for? Well, understanding why I'm doing this, that I'm the only one responsible for what I want, want to do and how I want to live.

Good night.

Love dare day 9

Jos right beside me so I don't have the book, but here's the resume of what the dare was about.

Today choose to greet your spouse in a completely different matter, expression how much you care, love and appreciate her. Then, commit to changing the way you greet your spouse in order to create, daily, that affect.

Well I chose to give her a hug and a long kiss and tell her, with a lot of passion how special she was to me. This is truly a different way for me to greet my wife. I honestly have to say that I didn't really affectionnately greet my wife. I would just say hi and then maybe sometimes a little kiss and get right into what I needed to do.

So I'm really happy that this dare come about, because it alloud me to realise that I was missing out on a very important daily habit. You know, you never know what will happen and if you will see each other again that day, so I little special time to take notice of just how important the other person is in your life, is a huge AHAH for me.

I love Jos so much and found it quite challenging to change my habit. However, it was really great and fulfilling to do.

I DO commit to keep on greeting my wife like the special and amazing woman she is.

Thank you love dare,

Robert

love dare day 8

Determine to become you spouse's biggest fan and to reject any thoughts of jealousy. To help you set your heart on your spouse and focus on their achievements, take yesterday's list of negative attributes and discreetly burn it. Then share with your spouse how glad you are about a success he or she recently enjoyed.

Reflexion questions: How hard was it to destroy the list? What are some positive experiences that you can celebrate in the life of your mate? How can you encourage them toward future successes?

Well, not hard at all. Actually, I didn't burn the sheet I just deleeted it from my computer. Easily accomplished, without any hardship.

As for positive experiences, well we are going through a lot of changes in regards to our new baby and I expressed how wonderful it was that She actually left the house to go to a soccer game. Sounds pretty easy, but you get an amazingly loving mom to let go of a 8 week old baby, even if it's only for a couple of hours. So we celebrated that fact. Got to tell you, that with the positive comments I made about her last night, really set things up for an eventful night (wink, if you know what I mean... hahahaha). Man I love this book.

You know, if I work on feeling the way I feel now, full of love, passion, patience and compassion, I don't believe encouraging my wife in regards to future successes will be a problem. Hum... something just came up when saying that.

Funny thing.... it's easier for me to encourage her in her successes when I'm successful as well. WOW, ok something to look into and or be aware of. Just like the saying goes... i'M ok with your success as long as it's not bigger than mine. So I choose to work on being my wife's biggest cheerleader. LIke I said, right now i'm ok and all is perfect..... we'll see.

Love dare day 7

Draw 2 sheets of paper. On one, write all the positive elements you find about your spouse. On the second. All negative. Once completed, put this sheets away for now, they will be used in another time. During the course of the day, pick one of the positve elements you wrote down and express that feeling to your spouse

Reflexion questions

What list was easier. Honnestly, I "wanted" the positive list to be easier and quite frankly it was. HOwever, the negatif list was also very easy to complete. Hahaha, I caught myself wanting to find more positive than negatif and of course it worked out that way. But only now, during the reflecting process can I see how I chose to show up during the exercise. It's all good. It just means that I know the negative reflexions are there and present and I choose to focus on the good.

I choose to express what an amazing women and attentive mother she is.

See you tomorrow.

My presentation 5min

Hi, for those that don’t know me, my name is Robert Daigneault And I’m here to talk to you about something that really passions me.

Do you know how some people are unhappy with the way their lives are being played out? They’re frustrated, they feel stuck, lost, short on time and worse yet, some are completely exhausted.

I know first hand how that feels… I’ve been there and had been there for years…. Knowing that there must be more out there than what’s being offered to you.

That you’re worth more than what you’re getting paid for…. even if …what you’re getting paid for ….is already quite a large sum.

It doesn’t matter does it? You just know that something is off and that you’re missing out on a bigger picture, but you just can’t seem to put your finger on it.

Well this is exactly where I can help.

My mission in life is to create authentic leaders by inspiring people, through a coaching process, .....to get really clear on who they are and how they want to position themselves in this world.

Basically, I inspire people to BE… nothing less…. than who they really are... or better yet..... who they are truly meant to be.
This might not seem like much… But you should see the look on peoples faces when, for the 1st time in their lives, everything becomes crystal clear.

For the first time in there lives, they realise that BEING themselves is a career choice. That BEING themselves is a marketable and even profitable action plan.

That for the first time in there lives, they have a personal and unique positioning statement that allows them to BE who they really are, DO what has always been there waiting for them to do, which in turn allows them to HAVE everything they’ve always wanted.

It just doesn’t get any better than that. Trust me, it’s an amazing and liberating feeling.

Confused….. not connecting with what I’m saying?..... Let me explain why this is so important to me…. Prosperity starts with “YOU”, It starts with your “Beingness”, with having the courage to ask yourself …… Who am I and what do I have to offer this world? And that’s exactly were most of us get stuck…. Instead of asking WHO I am and WHO I want to BE, we ask ourselves What do I HAVE to DO The worst part is that we believe that it’s what we DO..... that determines who we ARE and in turn, it’s what we do that will allow us to HAVE what we’ve always wanted. Humm, my experience has me to believe that that's not completely true. You see, if what I “DO” is not in lined with “WHO” I am…. I'm fighting myself.

Sooner or later, I will end up.... uncommited, unmotivated and of course unhappy.

Know wonder, so many people are frustrated, lost, stuck and ohhh yes…. exhausted. But don’t despair, there is hope. Yes indeed, I have finally experienced what the famous BE-DO-HAVE statement really means. It’s easy enough to know a concept. My challenge for you is to implement the concept in your daily lives…. Why? Well, As I said, I believe that prosperity starts with YOU… your “Beingness”. Once we discover what makes us tick, what we’re passionate about and what’s the impact we want to have in this world and then of course allow ourselves…. to BE ourselves,

this automatically leads us to “DO” things that are in lined with who we are and what we want to do.

Which then opens everything up and allows us to HAVE what we've always wanted. But wait, it doesn’t stop there. No, because the more you HAVE, the more you CAN BE and the more you can DO which again allows you to HAVE more and more, BE more and more and Do more and more which then again leads to HAVEing more, more and more and so on. This is what I call my perpetual prosperity process and I have seen it! I'm living it... and it’s available to each and everyone of us…. If only we choose to stop BEING everything for everyone and allow ourselves to BE something for someone…. And you know exactly who I’m talking about.
Wow, ok so you can see, I’m really passionate about all this. It's just that you have know idea how liberating it is to finally find yourself again. You are automatically revitalised, energy levels are at their peak, you are 100% committed to your goal and are finally truly in command, making the right choices at the right time for the right reasons.

You haven’t felt like this in years…. So if you are or know somebody who is feeling a bit off theses days, months or even years and has a DESIRE to create change their lives….. This is probably the opportunity you’ve been looking for. Come check me out…. Heck! You might just find what you’ve been looking for!

thanks for listening.

By the way, could you do me a favour. If you enjoyed this video, could you please pass it along. You never know, someone might really need to here this.
Thanks

Robert

Love dare day 6

Choose today to react to tough circumstances in your marriage in loving ways instead of with irritation. Begin by making a list below of areas where you need to add margin to your schedual. Then list any wrong motivations that you need to release from your life.

i choose to add breathing room in the following areas of my life:

1. Well actually, I'm really proud to say that I have cleaned up a lot of lost time lately. Got to say, Noah's arrival has help in that area and the fact that I'm a solo entrepreneur makes it a lot easier for me to add and substract actions. It almost went completely the other way. Since Noah, I have let go of almost everything and have only kept my top priorities.
2. What I have been learning is the ability to say NO! Humm. what a feeling to be able to say what we mean and do what we want based on personnal priorities and desires rather than the fact that we NEED to be loved. WOW, I got to say, loving myself, respecting myself and putting God, me, wife and son 1st on my list has opened up a lot of space in my life.

However, if I choose to step into the reflexion questions, the question about when was the last time I have overeacted was in regards of meal planning. I choose to release myself of any past negative judgment towards my wife for I have taken over the kitchen since the begginning and now being tired wanted her to step up and give me a hand. Hummm. nothing like a good conversation to create amazing solutions so that we can both pitch in and eat healthier and more thoughtout and fun meals.

So the decision I have made today is to plan our weekly meals with my wife so that we both no what is going on and what each of us can do to help the other out.

Humm. I feel so blessed to be doing this. It has already created an amazing and recognizably healthy and loving relationship.

see you tomorrow.

love dare day 5

Ask your spouse to tell you 3 things that cause him or her to be irritated or uncomfortable with you. You must do so without attacking them or justifying your behavior. This is from their perspectiv only.

Here are the 3 elements that were mentionned

1. My spending especially in regards to eating at restaurants.
2. My lack of discipline when it comes to taking care of my health
3. My lack of quickness when it comes to fixing things around the house.

I handled these commentaries very well I believe. It's not like we have never talked about theses topics before. However, it was truly a special moment. Even though I was a little prehensible and almost on the defensive, she took the question quite well and made an honest attempt to create a learning situation. I was a bit surprised at the 3 comment, but must agree, I am slow in regards to fixing things.

So all and all, I really appreciated this conversation. Now the hard part is putting it into action. To answer the last question, well I WILL implement transformation in all 3 departments. I don't intend to be perfect and I will give 100% effort into this.

Excellent day.

love dare day 4

Dare: Contact your spouse sometime during the business of the day. Have no agenda other than asking how he or she is doing and if there is anything you could do for them.

What did I learn: well I learned that she is very pleased with the situation as it is. I am thoughtful and a lot of help around with helping the baby and getting things organised around the house. I also learned, that she would like for us to have a once (1) every week meal planning session so that we're not always running around last minute with no energy trying to fix a quick meal. I also no, even thought she did not mention it, that she would like more massages. This is something that I have lost the taste for. It's a challenge for me to massage someone without knowing what I'm doing. So if I can't be perfect, I don't do it. Hum.... that a 2nd dare I give to myself for tomorrow. Whatever day 5 dare is, I will also massage my wife.

So all and all, life is great in this house. However, I do believe that there are probably some things that Josianne is keeping inside that will come out as we continue with this amazing new love level creation theme. I say this, because I have chosen to set this situation up even though are relationship has never been better. This might have an impact on what Josianne is able to endure or be content with.

My challenge is to enroll her to use this opportunity to get the bad stuff out so that we can analyse the situation rationnaly without adding any repressed anger.

Ok, enough for today. See you tomorrow.

Love dare day 3

Day 3 is along with restraining negative thoughts and words, buy your spouse something that says " I was thinking about you".

Hum... funny thing. Buying gifts is something that comes very naturally for me. Over time I also have discovered that Josianne's love language is not gifts, but quality time, complements, tasks anything but gifts. So today was a bit tricky for me. I had the idea of buying Josianne some flowers or something like that, but then decided to offer Josianne something a little more special for her and a lot more close to her needs right now.

So I offered Josianne the gift of sleep. The flipside of this gift is that I knew that at first she would be really upset, but after a couple of hours, she would learn to appreciate the power of such a gift. For those how don't understand, I offered commercial milk to our baby Noah, which is harder to digest and allows the baby to sleep longer. It works like a charm. It gave Josianne 6 hours of long awaited sleep. However, she was upset for giving something less natural to our baby.

So I have mixed emotions on this one. I believe this gift was worth a lot more than anything I could have given her and she was upset for a while. HUmmm, was this dare completed? Well if you ask her if she appreciated the gift, she would say yes. So I think at the end of the day, I offered her something that said, I was thinking about you.

Love Dare day 2

Today's dare is added to patience, is kindness. Doing something kind for my wife.

Excellent day today. I kept in mind to say nothing negatif to my wife and be patient at all times. Today, I was on fire! As for kindness, it's funny that the first thought I had was to purchase a gift for her. However, knowing that her love language is quality time, complements and tasks I quickly changed patterns and found many kind things to do. First of all, I decided to NOT go to the restaurant after my english class, even though I had not eaten yet. I decided to have diner with Josianne and how amazing it was to see that Jos was preparing a beautiful meal for diner. I'm really glad I choose to optout of the restaurant. Ouff, dodged a bullet on that one.

Then I decided to do the groceries, which I know she wanted done and doesn't like to do. Then it was helping out around the house and giving her time to rest and some along time without the new baby.

So all and all, today was a great day. I am so blessed to have her in my life. She is worth all the effort I'm putting in to take our love to a completely different level.

See you tomorrow.

The love dare day 1

For the next day, resolve to demonstrate patience and to say nothing negative to your spouse at all. If the temptation arises, choose not to say anything. it's better to hold your tongue than to say something you'll regret.

Wow, ok so I thought that would be easy enough to do. Hahaha, right after reading the dare I started to think of all the times and subjects I had negative thoughts towards my wife. I pictured the moments and situations and allowed my mind to wonder off, telling myself: "Ok, I can do this. I'm in the perfect mindset and don't feel any repressed anger or hardly any ;-)". This should go very smoothly". I almost went on to reading the 2nd dare, thinking I was so cool.

A couple minutes later, without even noticing it (I only realised this hours after all this was done) I had started to openly criticise my wife in regards to the way she wanted to cook the porc for a supper. Without even blinking, I went right into what I had 30 minutes ago tapped myself on the back for not going to do.

How crazy was that. It's not until later that evening that I realised what I had done and that I had just sacrificed my first dare. So then I thought, ok lets start all over. Lets start now and go on for 24 hours and lets call that a day.

Then I told myself. YOu know, whatever happens, happens for a reason and evening though I did mess up the first dare, here's a perfect situation for me to do something different and put my love for my wife to the test. So I picked up the phone (I was driving to a meeting that evening) and told my wife how sorry I was for being an ass about her lack of originality and that I had no right to be that way with her. Wow, I have just set the stage for an amazing 40 days for I have realised that I don't "have" to be perfect. Perfect doesn't exist. However, I can make sur I'm 100% aware of what is going on and be completely honest with myself and make sure I apoligize for a messed up situation.

So all and all, I learned a great lesson today. It's never as easy as it seems and patience and kindness need awarness and a desire to improve oneself. I'm happy that I messed up and even happier for the courage I took to apologize for my behavior.

Day one = check.

1.14 Quelle situation est-ce que je veux changer à ce moment?

La situation que je veux changer à ce moment c'est la situation dans mon entreprise Usana. J'ai découvert que je n'arrivais plus à trouver de nouvelles personnes, car je n'étais pas en mesure d'offrir le succès aux gens qui y sont déjà inscrit. Je crois qu'il est temps que j'offre toute mes capacités et tout mon temps aux gens dans mon organisation afin de réveiller le leadership qui y dore.

Je sais qu'il ne faut que 4 leaders afin de lancer mon organisation à un tout nouveau niveau. Je choisi donc d'offrir mon coaching comme un défi personnel qui me permettra de prouver ma vision et son impact dans mon organisation.

Ok, là je ne suis plus connecté. Je quitte et reviendra plus tard.

Dans le passé....

UN MOMENT DE RÉFLEXION SUR LA DÉCLARATION SUIVANTE:

Dans le passé, il se peut que j'étais plus ou moins engagé à créer ce résultat. Qu'importe.

À ce moement présent, dès maintenant, je suis vraiment prêt à renouveler mon engagement à la création consciente de ce résultat, laissant de côté, pour l'instant, tous mes soucis ou mes doutes à propos de comment ce résultat arrivera.

Hum... oui, oui et oui. La raison pourquoi je suis beaucoup plus engagé c'est parceque clair pour moi le résultat que je veux obtenir et c'est aussi clair l'impact que je veux avoir dans ma vie et par conséquent, dans le monde.

Donc, oui je ne sais pas exactement comment le tout se déroulera et je suis quand même hyper confiant et engagé car pour la première fois dans ma vie, je sais qui je suis.

Est-ce que je suis clair à propos du résultat que je veux?

Lorsque je lis l'affirmation suivante: Je suis clair à propos du résultat que je veux, il me vient un nuage de brouillard avec à l'intérieur un packet d'images correspondant à ce que je veux. Il est pas possible pour moi de rattacher toute ces images dans une photo globale présentement. Donc, est-ce que je suis clair à propos du résultat que je veux... ehhh Non, pas pour l'instant.

Ok 1er constatation et je suis content de savoir maintenant ou est-ce que je me situe. Ce qui m'amène à ma prochaine question, celle que j'adore et qui vient de la famille de KLemmer " Si tu étais clair à propos du résultat que je veux, ça aurait l'aire de quoi? Hum.... bonne question.

Je veux une organisation Usana autonome et en pleinne expensation.
Je veux être reconnu comme coach par la société
Je veux faire parti du mouvement de libération et création de soi. Que de plus en plus de gens réalise qu'ils ont le pouvoir de dessiner leur vie en fonction de leur désirs, passions et dons de dieu.
Je veux devenir une référence et qu'on s'arrache mes connaissances en developpement de l'authenticité et le leadership.
Je veux offrir une alternative à ma conjointe afin qu'elle puisse elle aussi avoir la possibilité de vivre pleinnement sa vie.
Je veux vivre les bienfaits du cycle de prospérité perpetuel.
Je veux révolutionner la façon dont le marketing de réseau et enseigné et ainsi changer la perception sociale de cette industrie.

Voilà je crois que c'est ça!

Étape 1 - Définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.6

Quelles récompenses externes vais-je attirer pour avoir vécu ce résultat? Inscrivez au moins 5 récompenses externes (physiques, mesurables, tangibles), comme l'argent (combien?), mentions, titres, accomplissements, remerciements, promotions, etc.

Hum.. les récompenses. Et bien je crois que le fait d'être en mesure de rejoindre et surtout maintenant d'attirer les gens qui me cherchent et là le but ultime de cette démarche. Ensuite, de part les résultats des gens qui ont accepté de joindre le programme complèt de la formation de Leadership Authentique, je pourrais commencer à récolté ce que mon cycle de prosperité perpétuel commence à fournir. Bref, je crois que les récompenses seront monétaires dans une ordre d'atteindre les 10 000$/sem que j'attends depuis longtemps. Deplus, je crois qu'alors je vais commencer à attirer de l'attention envers mon concept et ma façon de faire. Ce qui m'attirera plusieurs autre possibilités et de lancer ma carrière de conférenciers plus internationnalment. Je deviendrais alors coach de coach. Bref, je vais avoir plus, afin de pouvoir Être plus et faire plus, etc...

Je vais m'avoir libérer de mes soucis financiers et je vais pouvoir offrir une toute nouvelle possibilité de carrière à Josianne. Je vais pouvoir investir davantage dans la maision, dans mon linge, dans ma voiture etc....

Ce sera le début d'une toute nouvelle vie d'abondance.

Merci

Étape 1 -Définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.5

Quelles émotions, dans moi, vivrais-je pour avoir vécu ce résultat?

Je m'imagine à la fin de mon séminaire sur la démystification du Marketing de réseau et qu'une grande partie des gens viennent me voir et veulent en connaître d'avantage sur qui je suis, ce que je fais et surtout si je peux leur permettre de vivre leur plein potentiel et de devenir le leader Authentique qui dort en eux.

Je me sens ohhh tellement fière, heureux et surtout reconnaissant d'être ce que je suis, rien de plus et surtout rien de moins.

Enfin, une façon de vivre et d'avoir ce que j'ai toujours voulu qui me colle à la peu. J'ai toujours su que j'avais une grande mission dans ce monde et d'aider les gens à ce libérer et d'ÊTRE tout ce qu'ils ont le don d'être me fait vraiement tripper. Ça vient me chercher dans les trippes.

Il suffit maintenant de devenir le leader AUthentique que je suis et que je me lance.

Merci

Étape 1- Définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.4

Quand est-ce que je veux vivre ce résultat? Dans... 3 mois - 6 mois- 12 mois- 2ans - 3ans
Quelle date spécifique? (jour/mois/année)

Humm... wow, ok c'est toute une question ça. Et ce qui me vient, c'est ahh non, pas encore un engagement que je ne tiendra pas. Toutfois, je crois que l'idée du nouveau programme à l'université pourrait voir le jour dans 3 ans. Je le mets un peu plus loin, car je crois que je peux mettre en pratique le modèle de ce cours d'ici les 3 prochains mois. Bref, c'est mon but entout cas. Je veux mettre au point une partie de ce programme et le mettre à l'épreuve afin de faire croître, MON entreprise Usana et ensuite le lancer à l'université..... Ouain, j'ai l'impression que j'évade la question et que j'ai peur de me commettre. Nous savons tous, que ce n'est pas un ou l'autre.

Donc si la question est, quand est-ce que je veux avoir établi mon programme de création de leaders authentique? je dirais, dans un mois, soit pour le 1 juin 2009.

Pour le programme à l'université, si je ne fais qu'écouter la réponse qui vient de mon coeur: la réponse dit que le programme complèt n'est pas présent en moi pour l'instant, Toutefois, la formation de dymistification du MLM est là et même, c,est là clé de mon projet. Donc, je lance le tout pour le 1 juin 2009.

OUff.....

YES SIR!!! Je crois que j'ai vraiment touché la façon d'intégrer ou du moins présenter les possibilités d'usana au gens.

Étape 1- définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.3

Si j'avais toutes les ressources et les pouvoirs pour changer cette situation, quel serait le résultat final le plus significatif, le plus grand, l'idéal, le nec plus ultra, que je voudrais vivre?

Wow, j'imagine que je pourrais fondé une école et/ou un tout nouveau programme au BAC à l'université qui serait entrelâcé avec la formation donnée à l'entrepreneurship. Une formation de 3 ans qui aurait comme seul but de créer des leaders Authentique qui veulent être rien de plus et surtout rien de moins que ce que Dieu avait l'intention qu'ils soient.

Dans ce programme, il y aurait des cours de base comme le positionnement, la création de son énoncé, l'établissement de sa clientèle cible et l'élaboration du Plan stratégie et d'affaires. Ensuite, il y aurait de la formation oratoire, comme Toastmasters afin de perfectionné les présentations publiques et de faire croître le leader en nous. Il y aurait aussi des cours de développement de soi, comme Klemmer qui à pour but de mieux se connaître et aussi réaliser l'impact que nous avons et que nous pouvons avoir dans ce monde. Win Win, c'est plus qu'un concept, c'est un mode de vie. Bien sûr, il y aurait de la formation de tronc commun d'adminstration comme finance, comptabilité, information, marketing etc....

WOOOOO, je viens d'avoir peur! Je trouve ça gros ce que j'écris et j'ai mes programmes qui sont venu arrêter tout `ca. Toutefois, comme je dis souvent, ON S'EN FOU! Laisse faire les peurs et ayant du fun à libérer le fond de notre pensée.

Donc, wow, un tout nouveau programme au bac. La grande question, ou est-ce que le marketing de réseau embarque? Hum... je crois qu'un cours sur le marketing de réseau serait primordiale afin de sensibilisé les gens à cette forme d'entreprise. Il est évident qu'il ne serait pas l'idéal pour tous les gens, sauf que je crois que la dimistification du marketing de réseau est un most, car c'est une école incroyable de developpement personnel.

OUff.... C'est assez fou ça.... on continue.

Donc, un cours sur le marketing de réseau qui position, l'historique, le négatif, le positif, les possibilités, les fausses croyances, ce que c'est, ce que ce n,est pas, les différents modèles etc.... Wow je trouve ça vraiment cool comme concept de Bac.

Donc voici les rubriques

1. Clarification (Positionnnement, énoncé, offre, clientèle cible
2. Plan stratégiques
3. Developpement de soi
4. Leadership
5. Habilité oratoire
6. Initiation au marketing de réseau
7. Cours adminstratif
8. Marketing
9. langues
10. Organisation d'évenements

WOw, c'est ça que je veux. Former une école de qui à comme concept la libération et la création de soi. Authenticité dans le leadership.

Ok, je passe à la prochaine question, et j'aime ce qui j'écris. C'est vraiment le fun. C'est très excitant pour ne pas dire épeurant ;-).

Merci

Étape 1 - Définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.2

Décrire avec autant de détail que possible ce qui ne fonctionne pas (ou ce qui ne me satisfait pas):
Ce qui ne va pas c'est que je me sens un peu en résistance enver non pas Usana, mais plutôt envers le marketing de réseau. Même si je crois que le système d'Usana et du marketing de réseau global est sérieusement une merveilleuse invention, car il permet, audela d'être un levier financier efficace, c'est une école de "vie". Le marketing de réseau, pour y réussir, on choisi de ce dépasser sur tous les niveaux de notre vie et c'est pourquoi autant de gens n'y réussisent pas. Hum.... ce qui m'amène à dire que c'est peut-être la façon de promouvoir le marketing de réseau qui fait défaut, dans mon cas. Pour faire des sous, le marketing de réseau est une des méthodes les plus difficiles qui existe. Non pas parcque le système n'est pas simple et que n'importe qui peut réussir, mais plutôt car il demande et exige une volonté profonde de changer! Si en promouvant le MLM comme étant un levier financier de première ordre, je trompe inévitablement les gens et j'obtiens les résultats que j'ai. Toutefois, si je présente le marketing de réseau comme l'école et le mode de travail idéal pour les gens qui aiment aidé les gens et que le processus permettra aux gens de Rêveiller le leader qui dort en eux et que le résultat de ce périble est effictivement de la prospirité et même la libérté financière. Hum... voilà ce qui ne va pas dans mon système et pourquoi je n'arrivais pas à me sentir à lèse dans un telle système. Je me sentais faux et même un charlatant.

Voilà ce qui n'allait pas. Je n'était pas authentique dans ma démarche ce qui m'empêchait d'être le leader que je suis. Je n'était pas engagé, car ce n'était pas claire pourquoi Usana était dans ma vie, mise à part réduire mon fardeaux fiscale.

Cela, ne règle pas la question de mon offre global de libération et de création de soi. Toutefois, je crois que j'ai mis le doigt sur une situation qui me hantait depuis un bon moment maintenant.

Merci.

Étape 1, Définir ce que je veux vraiment 1.1

Une situation dans mon projet d'entreprise qui est importante pour moi, qui ne se présente pas aussi bien que je voudrais, et que je veux changer, c'est:
De ne pas être en mesure de rejoindre les gens que je sais que je peux aider. De ne pas être en mesure de définir mon offre global, qui est sûrement une des raisons pour laquelle je n,arrive pas à clarifier mon message et de rejoindre les gens que je sais que je peux aider. Présentement, je crois fortment qu'il y a des gens qui vivent très bien. Ils ont une belle maision, de beaux vêtements, une famille et/ou une famille en devenir et qu'ils sont quand même insatisfait. Ils ont le sentiment de ne pas être totalement épanouis ou même heureux. Ils ont l'impression de valoir beaucoup plus et aussi d'être en mesure d'en faire beaucoup plus que ce qu'ils font présentement. Et je sais ça, car je crois qu'il est impossible que je sois le seul ;-) Il n'est pas vrai que je suis le seul a avoir quitter un emploi de 70k par année pour vivre dans la misère depuis, car il y avait là un sentiment de vide et aussi que je m'éloignais de ce qui m'est le plus chère... ma femme et ma famille.

Donc, la situation qui n,est à mon goût c'est de ne pas savoir comment offrir Usana dans un concept global de libération et création de soi. Bref, comment me servir, de ce que je crois être un outil incroyable car la santé, la famille et l'entreaide sont des valeurs importantes pour moi, comme plateform qui permet d'ÊTRE rien de plus et surtout rien de moins de ce que Dieu a comme intention pour nous, afin de mettre à profit nos dons, talents, passions et/ou intérêts propres à nous, ce qui nous donnera ensuite accès à "AVOIR" ce que nous avons toujours voulu avoir.

Je crois que c'est ce manque de clarification de mon offre qui m'empêche de clarifier ma clientèle cible qui, par conséquent, m'empêche de rejoindre les gens qui ont besoin de mon aide.

Merci.

My 5min presentation

Objectif: Enroller les gens à vouloir me connaître davantage, par ma passion et mon désir de créer des leaders Authentique.

Hi, my name is Robert Daigneault
and my goal in life is to create Authentic Leadership.

I intend to do so by continuing to inspire people to "Be" themselves, "Do" what comes naturally based on talents, interests and or passions, which in turn allows them to "Have" what they've always wanted.

But wait, the best part is that once you HAVE more, you get to BE more and then DO more which again allows you to HAVE more and more, Be more and more and so on and so on.

A perpetuous prosperity cycle has now taken form and what an impact you could now have in this world... just by first, allowing yourself to be nothing more, but nothing less than who God intended you to Be.

It all seems very easy and even simplistic and honestly it is.... theoretically. But where most of us get stuck, is right at the begginning, the "BEING" stage. And although it may seem pretty straight forward enough, building enough courage to "BE" yourself, is a feat, in this day and age, for the superhero.

You see, I for a very long time thought that I needed to portray or display the "beingness" of a superior humanbeing if I was to be loved, respected and be fulfilled, I couldn't possibly be just plain old "me". Who in their right mind would even blink in my direction, if I were to show up in public in nothing but "ME"?

Does this ring a bell? does this remind you of anybody? Have YOU had theses thoughts before? Well if you have and or still do, that's exaclty were I can help. believe in abondance. I truly believe there is an infinite at everyone has we were all made different more many reasons and one being thethat's why Authentic Leadership is so important for me and why I have made creating perpetuous prosperity cycles my life long journy.

There's nothing more beneficial for me than to take place in a mutual PPC

You see, I truly believe that abondance is the ability to get our share of the infinite ressources that are available and waiting for each and everyone of us. The only thing for we "need" to do is "BE". Not try to Be or want to Be or long to be. No, just BE! If the abondance theory is true, to get YOUR share of the pie, it would be important for you to

Getting ready to record my 1st youtube video.

Subject: Creating authentic leadership by inspiring people to "BE" themselves, "DO" what comes naturally based on interests, passions and of course God given Talents and HAVE prosperity so they can "BE" more, "DO" more and "HAVE" more. I believe there's enough for everyone and the only way to tap into your share is to be BE nothing else than what God has intended you to B

Be do have 1st step

Hi, my name is Robert Daigneault, but most people now me as "Bob" Daigneault. What I'm passionnate about is

1. Creating Authentic Leaders
2. by allowing people to truly "BE" themselves
3. in order for them to do great things and really impact this world
4. Which in turn creates prosperty which allows one to have the means to
5. Be more, Do more and again Have more so that you can again Be more, Do more and again Have more.

Coach Davender shared with me an opinion in which I share the views, which was: The bigger the impact the bigger the reward. Think about it! The more you give, the more you receive and that's exactly what I'm passionate about.

My purpose is to coach people to give themselves permission to "BE" who they really are with their passions, desirs, interests and, yes of course, God given talents. I'm tired of people trying to be everything for everyone, how about BEING something to someone. I read this saying by Thomas Merton: It takes heroic humility to be yourself and to be nobody but the person that god intended you to be · At this, I would add... but how incredibly rewarding. Why, well that brings me to another view point which says abondance is the concept that there is are infinite ressources for everyone on this planet. However, the trick is to BE yourself. In order for you to get your "rightful" share, it is imperative that you Be nobody but the person that god intented you to be. You have a righteous duty to fullfil, which is also called a purpous and will be abondantly rewarding for acheiving just that.

So back from that rambling off, Being yourself is not only a way of life, it's THE way of life for it sets one's soul free and allows one to feel the Burning Desire of intention, the pride of commitment and the sweet taste of properity.

Now tell me the truth, doesn't that seem more interesting to say the least?

Being unlocks the doors to prosperity by allowing you to Do great things to and for the world we live in. Being is the fuel that empowers, Doing what you Being tells you is the vehicule you were meant to drive in order to open the flood gates of the properity and the Have is the sweet perfum you wear and that you can share. (ok not really what I want to say, but I'll leave it at that:-)

I'll be back..

Gratitude

Gratitude

You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.

Sarah Ban Breathnach

Simple Abundance

Vous ne serez tout simplement pas la même personne d’ici deux (2) mois après avoir consciemment offert votre gratitude à chaque jour pour toute l’abondance qui existe dans votre vie. De plus, vous aurez relancé une ancienne loi spirituelle qui dit: Plus vous en avez et plus vous en êtes reconnaissant, plus vous en recevrez.

Clientèle cible #1

The perfect client for me is a young professional couple (funny that what's coming up is a young man vs couple) that are in the midst of starting a family or have one already on the way. Money is not an issue although they're always looking for more. They are well established and both have promissing careers. What they don't have is a lot of time or family time. Of coarse they have "vacation time and they have great conditions, but they're starting to realise that they should be investing eagerly in order to create more abondance in their life. Theses couples are active mid aged adults aging from 30-45. An age where they still believe they can change and increase their lives without having it be to little to late. They know or do not know about network marketing and are not afraid of sales, selling and can count.

What's so special about this type of groupe:

• not a money issue
• have reached on age where the futur is on their mind Health and financial wise
• they realise the value of family time
• Their smart enough to know what's right and what's fake
• Computer smart
• self motivated
• Not afraid of over sea's team work
• desire to improve there lives
• No or little experience in Network marketing
• Ready to change and are ready to listen
• Not an easy sell, but well worth the effort

They won't be sold on just $$$. It's the whole package their looking after. If you just choose money as a selling pitch, they won't trust you, because to many have used this tactic before and still do. If you want to reach them sell

• Family values (quality time and love and support)
• Community help and participation
• Creating a better world to live in
• Talk about creating a community where True friends, family, love support and great clean fun is available and then you've got their attention
• Tell them that you're creating a group of true friends and neighboorly friendships where teamwork, authenticity and fun are the core values and you've got a tribe
• Tell them that you'll help allow them to become leaders in what they love and are passionate about while creating true prosperity and you've got a sell.
• Let them feel like you're right there with them having an amazing time building the life they've always wanted even though their thousands of miles away.

Why do I like this type of clientel base, because that's exaclty what I am and what i'm creating. A community of true authentic leaders who become true authentic friends where good old family values of help, support, love and fun are the core of this whole group. Making a better world for ourselves, 1 person at a time.

THis is a great clientel base for me. I'm not sure I've pushed far enough yet, but I like where I'm going on this one.

Question: Is it possible to create a virtual international neighboorhood community based on good old fasion family values where everyone in the group is ready to lend a helping hand and where picnicks and BBQ's and get togethers are core to this group.

Is it possible to create a close nit group on the internet without ever seeing each other.... that's where Salt Lake comes in!

I'll be back...

Wow j'adore cette réflexion

Ça prend une humilité héroïque d’être soi-même et de n’être personne d’autre que la personne que Dieu à voulu que tu sois. ~ Traduction libre de Thomas Merton

Comment vs Pourquoi

Trop souvent on se demande “comment” nous allons y arriver? Comment relâcher du poids, Comment faire plus d’argent? Comment améliorer notre relation? Comment améliorer notre sort? Comment si, Comment ça? Comme « Klemmer » nous à démontré, ce n’est pas le « comment » qui = les résultats. Sans l’intention ou le « pourquoi » trop souvent on n’obtient pas ce que l’on dit vouloir. Au premier obstacle ou embûche toutes nos « soi disantes bonnes intentions » s’envole et la procrastination s’empare de nous tous. Demandez-vous donc « pourquoi » nous allons y arriver? Pourquoi relâcher du poids, Pourquoi faire plus d’argent? Pourquoi améliorer notre relation? Pourquoi vouloir être en relation? Pourquoi se marier? Pourquoi améliorer notre sort? Pourquoi se lancer en affaire? Pourquoi faire Usana? Pourquoi le coaching? Pourquoi avoir des enfants? Pourquoi quitter son emploi? Pourquoi garder son emploi? Etc.. Et si votre réponse n’est pas sans fondement justifiable par vos valeurs et désirs profondes, vous allez voir et sentir un tout nouveau niveau d’énergie et de motivation qui sera, peut-être pour la première fois de votre vie, soutenue et inébranlable face à l’adversité. Attention! L’être humain ne change que lorsque les actions qu’il entreprend ne lui servent plus. Donc, si vous n’arrivez pas à « transformer » vos habitudes, s’est soit que vous ne savez pas pourquoi ou s’est parce que vous n’êtes pas encore assez « écœuré » de vivre ainsi. Pensez-y Toujours avec amourRobert

Comment vs Pourquoi

J'ai comme mission de bâtir le programme qui me permettra de créer du leadership authentic. Ce programme ou devrais-je plutôt dire, cette recette devra être en mesure, primo, de me permettre à moi même de me créer du succès en me permettant de mettre à profit mes dons et intérêts presonnels.

C'est ainsi que j'ai débuté ma réflexion et tout de suite la fameuse question de "comment" est arrivé sur la scellette. De quelle façon je pourrais arrivé à mes fins, comment pourrais-je monter un tel programme, comment.. comment... comment. C'est alors que je me suis dis, en arrivant pas à trouver les solutions à mes questions, que je me posait surment pas la bonne question. En effet, j'ai ensuite pris conscience qu'il arrive souvent que nous arrivons pas à résoudre nos grandes questions, car on est trop dans le comment, lorsqu'on devrait être dans le "pourquoi". Comment vais-je éliminer du poids? Comment vais-je réussir à faire plus d'argent? Comment vais-je améliorer ma situation?

Je crois, pour l'avoir vécu, que les solutions qu'amènent ces questions n'ont pas le même impact et n'auront définitivement pas les mêmes résultats que les solutions amenées par la réponse à la question Pourquoi.

Donc, si on met tout ça en pratique, ce n,est pas COmment est-ce que je vais faire pour créer de l'authenticité dans le leadership, mais POurqoui? Et à chaque étape de mon processus de réflexion c'est les réponses au Pourqui et non le comment. Une fois le Pourquoi établi, le comment vient tout seul.

Allons-y:
Pourquoi monter le "authentic leadership coaching programme"? Et bien, la raison et simple. Comme dans tout processus d'apprentissage, c'est plus facile suivre et monitorer notre progrès lorsqu'il y a un système en place. Je m'imagine à L'université dans le premier cours de la session et on ne fait pas le tour du plan de cours. On connaît la matière à connaître ou que l'on veut apprendre, mais nous avons aucune idée de comment nous allons nous prendre. Je ne crois pas que les résultats scolaires seraient les mêmes. En tout cas, pour moi je serais un peu instabilisé. Donc, Pourquoi une recette, et bien c,est pour sécuriser les gens en permettant à ces derniers de connaître la façon dont le processus se déroulera du début jusqu'à la fin. C'est aussi une manière facile de suivre l'évolution du progrès et de permettre au prospect ou client de savoir exactement dans quoi il s'embarque.

Donc il est primordiale d'avoir un système en place pour permettre un choix en toute connaissance de cause dès le début, ensuite savoir la direction à prendre et ou on commence, monitorer son progrès, connaître la fin du processus et surtout, offrir la possibilité de duplicabilité.

Je reviens.

Great Quote

I human being will change when and only when the actions he or she is taking no longer suits him/her.

Think about it and if you find yourself in a situation where you can seem to change your habits, remember that somewhere deep down inside of you, you're comfortable with your actions.

3 years from now

Ok so it's now January 2012. Robert has evolved exponentially if that is possible. From a Newbie, wannabe Leadership Coach, Rob has transformed into a renowned speaker who now in turn helps newbie-wannabe coaches or teachers or whoever is involved with the people helping people industry.

Robert has now helped transform over 1000 different lives so far and the number continues to increase now that he no longer does individual sessions but works with coaches making sure they’re on the write path and keep their authenticity and allow authenticity to shine through.

Robert has successfully published his poem book and has 2 or 3 top 10 songs on the chart and enjoys writing when he gets around to it.

Robert is surrounded with genuine people who believe in themselves and take ownership of who they are and what they do. Robert is glowing and sucking in as much as possible for he knows all to well that this is all loaned time and any day God may take back what he has so kindly given.

What’s funny about this situation is that I can’t see where mlm fits in the works. I don’t want to pry or force anything out, but I guess all I get to see right now is the BIG picture.

Hummm. Time will tell and I guess I’ve got a lot of work to do if I want to live up to this vision hahahah.

Duplication is not...

Duplication doesn’t mean everyone needs to be doing the same thing the same way. Duplication means that everyone is getting results in a way that comes easy to them. That is what will keep us all going down the road to success. Learn who you are working with, and learn everything your company has to offer, so that you will recognize people that need what you have to offer.

My positionning statement (français et Enlgish)

I developpe authentic leadership by inspiring full expression of one's talents through the liberating power of network marketing.

Duplicable but not indistinguishable.

French:
Je developpe l'authencité dans le leadership en inspirant l'exploitation de nos dons par l'entremise du pouvoir libérateur du Marketing de Réseau.

Duplicable mais pas identique

So what do you think&

Qu'est-ce que vous en pensez?

I believe this to be true

If you believe that God has given indivual talents to everyone of us on this earth, then it would be quite a shame for us not to use them. Worst yet, not even noing about them.

So if I am to create authentic leadership and full expression of ones god given talents through the liberating power of network marketing, I should probably start making sure I know my own, hen?!

The reason behind all this is that this is the "key", in my believe. Theses talents are created to go hand in hand with your live's purpose in order to live the most fulfilling live possible. Howerver, most of us, that's me included, have some sort of blockage when it comes to looking down that sort of path. Yes, I guess it's the fear of stepping into our greatness, but moreso, I think I'm more fearful of the responsibilities of such action. Having an impact on the "world" is huge stuff and only now, can I say that I'm fully ready to take it on. Only one thing missing. I'm not sure of what my God given talents are.

But before I go into that, I just want to back up and talk about why I believe that it's the "key". I believe that knowing and owning up to our "talents" allows us to be completely authentic and real with ourselves. We then are no longer trying to be everything for everbody, but being something for someone. That's what will attract people to you. Authenticiy, stop doing something and start being someone. That's huge and I believe that a lot of us are getting ripped off because so little people out there ARE being who they we born to be. Just as myself!

So my talents.
Write poetry, Leading, Just love to love, courage, atheltic, creative, peoples man, cooking, coaching or helping people believe in themselves,

Which brings to my next question, how did God discribe what a Talent was. Was it a specific professional gift, such as singing, cooking, counting, swimming, etc. are could they be a stronger dose of courage, focus, determination, empathy, etc.

Hum... who could anwser that one, anyone out there?

Again, rapping up here, this all comes down to finding out your own niche. Your own specific playground where you can express yourself fully and connect with others that have similar talents or interets.

So my specifique talents are writing, leading, coaching and cooking. The stronger two are leading and coaching. However writing poetry is quite new and cooking is a passion. So, ok I guess I have that to work with.

In conclusion to this set, I think my positionning statement could read as follows: When asked, so what do you do for a living? I can answer:

I create authentic leadership by inspiring full expression of one's talents through the liberating power of network marketing.

I like it! What do you think?

Positionning statement

Well ok, it's 5 to 4am and I can't sleep because my head is going over and over all the different possibilities of how or what kind of impact I wish to have on this world.

So here are a few spurs of ideas

• I develop authentic leadership and talent expression through the liberating power of the network marketing system.

I really like this statement and it's not quite there yet. It doesn't go deep enough into my gut. Humm... So if I were to listen to my heart, what would it say:

It would talk of hope, love ,friendship, trust, worthiness, passion, lust, familly, support, teamwork, contribution, devotion, commitment, freedom, faith and of God and Christ our savior.

So now what really gets me, what word really digs down and turns my stomach around.... The word HOPE comes quickly to mind. Hope that we don't have to keep living this way. Living in a society were the blinds are closed, the doors locked and rare on the ones who know there neighbors. Hope that LOVE and TRUST are still words that mean something. That a helping had or a kind gesture is not perseemed as a marketing strategy. Hope that there is still a way to live the live you have always dreamed of for you and for your family. Hope that there are others out there that share the same view. Hope that there is a way to connect and create a community of trusting, loving, caring and powerful authentic Leaders that are fully expressing and sharing their GOD given talents with the rest of us. Hope that there is such a place were help is still offered and given freely and were no one is left behind.

Well ok now.... that was fun. HOPE is defentitely on the list ;-)

Back to bed, be back later.

thinking out load

What's the legacy I wish to leave in this world? How do I want to change the world? What's my life's purpose and how may I serve it or rather live upto it's expectations.

I once wrote, my purpose in life to to accept my greatness so others may do the same. Which means, to not let fear and self doubt get in the way of achieving a goal, dream or objective. In doing so, I automatically open up a space for someone else to do the same.

So how can I implement that with my mlm company? What is it that I could step into that would allow myself to accept my greatness in regards to my business. I am a great leader (funny how I wanted to add, in the making) But no, I am a great leader and have all the skills and experience to lead, for I have seen it in so many different situations. However, I seem to be lacking focus or a direct goal to take leadership with my downline. I keep wanting to use the system, but the system is not generating prospects and all of the stuff you read on the internet is in the opposite direction. I love the idea of not herassing friends, family and any one in 3 feet. I would love to create or use more of the law of attraction.

So what is it that may draw people towards me. Integrity, honestly, passion, devotion, teamwork, love, community service, Faith, authenticity.

Here's a flash: Creating authentic leadership through the business school for people you love helping people.

Oups, got to go.

Duplicatible without being Identical

Another great quote

'Do not ask the Lord to Guide your Footsteps if you are not willing to move your Feet'
Ne demandez pas a Dieu de guider vos pas si vous n'êtes pas prêt à marcher.

The beauty of Network marketing

The beauty of the network marketing business is that all you have to do to succeed, is to
help other people get the same things you want.
This business is not measured in how much
money you make, but in how many people you help and how many lives you change.

If heard and seen a lot of people critic and smicker at such a philantropic remark. Yes, unfortunalty, in the world we live in today, it's more a "dog eat dog" world and when someone like me comes out an openly says that I truly, deeply and authentically love helping others, they laugh and say that I'm being dishonest and am unworthy of trust.

Wow, how huge is that! It's so difficult for so many of us to accept a kind gesture. We're automatically asking ourselves, ok what's the catch, what's behind all this kindness? Am I getting screwed over? Why are you so kind all of a sudden.. I don't even know you?

I believe that that statement is a big cause of all the negative press Network Marketing is receiving. To many bad apples have played the nice game and have screwed people over, making for a very overprotective society... well in Quebec I guess. Don't know for the rest of the planet, but I can only imagine it could be the same.

So there's the catch. How do I get over the fear of "Mr nice guy"? Well, time actually. Networking, allowing people to read me and get to know me?

So how do I get that to happen over the internet or internationnal connections... Hummm I guess there's more pondering to do.

Any suggestions, please let me know.

P.S. I believe it's all about presentation and how you present yourself. The more honest, authentic and vulnerable (or open) you are, the more you allow people to get a "feel" of who you are and where you are going.

Thanks for the talk.

I really like this quote

‘Losers use their life’s situations as excuses to fail and winners use their life’s situations as
their reasons to succeed.

Why me, Why now and why networkmarketing

Wow, well there are some awesome questions to get really clear in what I choose to become and what impact I choose to have on this world. Theses seem to very basic questions, however, the impact that the answers will have on my life are astronomical; it's laying down the foundation on which I choose to build the way I truly want to live my life. So enough of the gibberish and lets get down to business.

Why Networkmarketing? They're so many other ways of doing business, why would someone in there right mind want to take a path with so much negative press? Hahaha, now that is also a very good question and before I take the time to read the Business School for people who like helping people from R. Kiyosaki, I will take the time to answer front a gut point of view.
Why networkmarketing? Well I truly believe in the great power of leveraging people. In what other business do you get the true notion of Win=Win. I just love helping people believe in themselves, overcome personal doubts and fears and become the true leaders that they were meant to be. To me MLM is not "only" about money. Money is important, don't take me wrong, but more satisfying for me is seeing a person bloom and create the life one has always dreamed of. So why ntwmrkting, I believe in people and I love to work with people who want to expand and bite down into life and take it to the limits of what's out there. The money aspect is what I call a result. Some times it's all about positioning and timing for some, others, like me, if I'm making money, it's because someone else too.
I really want to take a bit more time on this and journal down my thoughts so it becomes crystal clear for me....
Why MLM? It's an amazing school. Your business grows as fast as you do. In other words, this way of life is always pushing you towards your own limits and beyond. It's almost viral and alive. In no other job, no other business, have I had the opportunities to develop my leadership and take myself on, like no kidding, as I have had in MLM.
Why MLM? Man I just love helping people. It's in my blood. That's why I have also worked on my coaching abilities. I believe, the MLM is a great tool. However, I also believe there is a HUGE lack of true leadership inside the companies. There's a lot of "hype" and wind blowing; all talk and no show. So why MLM, well I think that I can increase my leadership and personal development skills by helping others do the same.
Why Now? This is an easier question for me to answer. I believe that we're right smack in the middle of a huge "health and wellness" Booming industry. The company I choose to take part in, has a great product and is a great company with a great reputation. I would almost like to say it's a landmark in the nutritional supplementation industry. So timing in business is everything and on a product stand point, it's right on the money.
As for the MlM side to it. I believe that the bad press is slowly dissipating. A lot of people have created great wealth and great organizations in MLM and people are still on the lookout for the bad apple, but realise that, just like in anything, there's good companies and bad ones.
Why Me? Well I believe I have a lot to give. I am a very courageous, focused, determined, fun and loving guy. I have a lot of "being the boss" experience and have a strong leadership persona; it just comes naturally to me. I have also learned and practiced a lot of my leadership skills to know how to lead and from all different angles. Basically, I have the drive, the will, the courage, the love and the people skills to create a society of Great Leaders which this world is in dire need of.


So that's it for a first draft of my thoughts. I don't believe I have put down in words exactly what I want and have correctly answered my questions. However, it's a start!

God bless and good night.
