Taking the World by S.T.O.R.M. (Part I)
Few things in this world have the raw power & energy of a storm. You can take the world by storm if you will focus your power and energy in the direction of your goals and dreams. For you to take the world, and your goals, by S.T.O.R.M. may I suggest you follow these five simple steps… Stop Take Inventory Organize Reflect Move It In today’s post I will address the first step of S.T.O.R.M., which is to STOP. I will write about the remaining four steps over the course of the next few weeks. 
STOP! We are in such a hurry. It’s easy to miss things; easy to get stuck in the rut of reactivity, repeating the same old ineffective behaviors over and over again. So often we confuse activity with accomplishment. So, the first thing we need to do in creating our own personal and powerful S.T.O.R.M. is to STOP! Stop what you’re doing. Stop where you are. In fact, stop right now (well, not until you finish reading this blog of course). Stop and be silent for a few moments. Stop and think. Listen to your thoughts, without the noise and the clutter created by the world around you. They say it is quiet and calm in the eye of the storm. You need to stop and create you own personal “eye of the storm” long enough that you can gain some focus and clarity. Once you have made this initial STOP, I suggest you schedule other “stops” in the near future. What are you going to do during these “stops“? Well, continue to build your S.T.O.R.M., of course. Tune in next week to learn more about the next step of S.T.O.R.M. - Take Inventory!
