Action Is The Key To Making Things Happen
Hopefully by now you have thought about and written down all the things you want to accomplish in 2009 both personally and professionally, and you are moving in the right direction halfway through this year! This is where we have to make it clear that we are not a "motivational speaking" company, The Chad Carden Group is a consulting organization that believes in getting results, and to do that we have to be realist! We tell you like it is, and either you like it or you don't. That being said we are not writing this to make you mad, but to make you think. Most people will never accomplish what they want to accomplish this year because they do not put their plan into action. Having a vision, goals, and a plan on how to achieve these things is important and the first step, but without action it is 100% useless. We believe in writing down goals, visions, plans, and thinking positive, and at CCG we do all these things. But positive thinking alone won't change anything. If you want to get in shape, just having a positive attitude for thirty days won't do it! You have to have a great attitude along with taking action, such as going to the gym, eating healthy, exercising, and doing the things that you probably don't want to always do. You could have the best workout plan, but without actually getting on the machine, lifting weights, doing push ups and set ups, or running the workout plan is 100% useless. Get the point? Now we all have heard or read the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. If you want things to be different you have to change what you do! Simple, period, that is the way that it is! It reminds us of a story we once heard about a bear in a cage. The zoo put this bear in a cage that was ten feet long. They put the bear at one end, and put the food at the other end. Everyday the bear would walk ten feet and eat, then go back over and lay down. Walk ten feet and eat, then go back over and lay down, he did this for ten years in the zoo. Everybody would watch him. They removed the cage one day, ten feet forward the bear would go over and eat, and then go back without bars....ten feet forward the bear would go over and eat, and then go back without bars. Now here is what's scary, they moved the food fifteen feet away from the bear, and the bear went ten feet and stopped! So many people in life get comfortable with what they have, they are ten feet forward and ten feet back. They get up and do the same things over and over, and over again expecting different results. Then when the game of life is over, a lot of them look over their shoulder and say, "what happened?"Now the beautiful thing about living in a free society is that you don't have to change if you don't want to. At CCG we believe that most people are living a life of what is called "quiet desperation." That is where they have enough that it is not worth doing anything about it, but they always ask the question: "Isn't there more to life than this?"So if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired of being sick and tired with some area(s) in your life, then we suggest you change your actions, which will in-turn change your results!What can you do today, that will help you accomplish whatever it is you want to accomplish this year? Maybe you need to change careers, maybe you need to save some money, maybe you need to move a relationship forward (or get out of one). Whatever it is we suggest you do it, and you do it TODAY! Like the Nike slogan: "Just Do It"

What People are Saying
“Growth is up 13% in August alone. We still continue to do our monthly calls to review ARM's performance. The focus has shifted slightly to target accounts that we know are sending business to the competition. In short, the PDM's are helping us stay aggressive in the market place and the excitement continues to grow each month as the fleet moves up. Last month alone, Insurance business was up 6% and we hit 20K on the road for the first time ever in Chicago. We didn't stop there as we continue to set records each week.”
