Roe and Don Polczynski Jr. worked hard and gave back to others, but after years of struggling, they were asking the same question: When do we reach our goals?
They realized they must alter their vision of their ideal future or alter themselves. They could stay on their current path and accept that they would not achieve their goals or find some way to obtain what they wanted.
In taking ownership of their lives, they achieved what previously seemed beyond reach. In this leadership guide, they focus on how to:
- - determine what you really want to accomplish;
- - find others who can help you get to where you want to go;
- - identify those who are holding you back; and
- - learn new skills that will help you achieve your dreams.
Worksheets, illustrations and tools at the end of each chapter lead you to a better awareness of how different components in your life affect your situation.
There is no reason any person, including yourself, should live without hope. Find the path that leads to your ideal future with the life lessons in Changing Your Equation.
Often, you might hear someone say"bucket list" or "life's to-do list," many years ago, we made the conscious choice to call it our "dream day list." We actually schedule a dream day once a year, which we just sit and literally dream about our life. No judgements are allowed, if it is something we hope for, dream about or even just want to try,it goes on the list. From there we carry it forward to actual goals and time frames.
During one dream day, when we were sitting on a favorite beach, in our conversation, we realized we weren't going achieve everything on our own "dream day" list.We instantly knew there were two choices; change ourselves or change the list. We didn't want to change the list so it came down to figuring out how we could change ourselves.
Hmmm....
Then, I (Roe) picked up on Don's thought that unless the factors changed, our life would always lead to the same result. There was a cap to our earning potential. There was a time limit our dreams and our future (as much as we want to, we can't live forever!). From there, I realized that our lives were an equation. Just like we learned back in grade school math, the result from our equations would not change until we changed the factors that made up the equation.
So, we reduced a very broad idea of getting what we want out of life to a manageable equation that is built around universally principles that really apply to everyone. We all have these principles "factors." Once we determined the factors of this equation, we took another step forward and made each factor actionable. Changing Your Equation, not only creates awareness of many issues, it creates actions needed to implement real change.
Everyone deserves to live life to its fullest potential...everyone deserves to reach their own Ideal Future. We truly hope our book will help!
