How Does The Entrepreneurial World of Seal Team 1‘s, Stack Up To The United States Navy’s, Seal Team 1

Seal Team 1, Wow! the best of the best. For many people in America and around the world this is the flash that produces the thoughts and pictures in the minds of all of us as those words are spoken, and rightly so. They are the best, at what they choose to do. A team of men and women so finely tuned that a comparison can only produce one and only one thought and that is of the finest of Swiss Time Pieces. So finely created that its workings are without question as to pre session and accuracy. Seal Teams train and execute missions much like this watch. Never missing a beat. A question arises however, Seal Team member, outside of his or her team, what do they aspires to? As an individual they are successful men and women that have acquired skills. Ask yourself this question. What is the difference between Ability and Skill? Ability is what we are born with and is given to us by God. Skill is what we have acquired through training and experience. What is experience? Trial and error...mostly error, bad chooses we hopefully learn from. There has never been nor will there ever be a Seal Team member or Team born with “ability only” that can do what Seal Team 1 has accomplished. Be dropped into Pakistan and take out Osama Bin Ladin. Individual Seal Team member training, and teamwork, are only but two of a three part quest for the making of a Seal Team 1 capable unit. The third part, is experience, and that is a killer. The Seals, of Seal Team 1 have had to do a mission or missions like this before to acquire the experience to qualify for the first team. If you were a member of any of the other teams and failed, there is a good chance you’re dead. If you’re in Entrepreneurial World you’re probably broke, out of business and would like to be dead. Okay, you have passed the test and by trail and error you have been found worthy of your new position. SEAL Team 1... STOP! I forgot to tell you one more thing you have to know.

Do you remember that Swiss Time Piece we where talking about? The one that can run one hundred years without missing a beat. Why do you think it can do that? I will tell you why. Because it knows it’s a Swiss Time Piece and it has Purpose, Integrity and Honor, made by a team of people with the same values. I see it this way. While the sum of the parts are enclosed in that solid gold watch case it will do its job and never let its team members that are also enclosed in that solid gold case down. For many of us that solid gold case may be an office or a basket ball court or a football field. For a Seal Team 1 member it’s the world stage. We can never forget the reasons we do the things we do. That’s what gets us home at the end of the day. When you walk through that door and hold the people you love in your arms, does it really matter how you got there? Or just that you’re there. At night, lie that solid gold watch on your night stands, and get into bed. Slide up to your world and hold them in your arm as you smile knowing the world your world is safer and better then it was yesterday.

No Death Sentence/Life W/O Parole on circumstantial evidence

Please
Sign Our Petition
http://tiny.cc/wf0oj

Case in point, Casey Anthony, you do not try to give a person a death sentence, or life in prison “Without Parole” only on circumstantial evidence. Justification for this kind of sentencing can only be made with hard factual evidence. Governor, Senators and Speaker, every day we read in the newspapers someone is getting out of prison because of new DNA evidence being found, or a new DNA test has been invented. Well, where is the balance for people who have been convicted on circumstantial evidence? When no physical evidence exist in a case it becomes impossible to prove your innocence. Today, it would seem one rule covers all events that fall into a specific category...such as crimes that fall under "capital felony". It needs to be changed by people who refuse to give the rule of law to another RULE... instead of giving it to a thinking person. Legislation I would like you to consider. I would ask that legislation be crafted that would not allow a person convicted on circumstantial evidence to receive a life term without parole. Please make this retroactive for all persons now being held in Florida jails. Have all persons that fall into this category go in front of a parole board for a review. If they have served an amount of time the board feels is just, and they have not been getting in any trouble while incarcerated, what would be the harm in giving them their life back? It would also save Florida some money and relieve the overcrowding in our prisons. Ron Tramontano

Is actress Angelina Jolie a martial arts aficionado?

Is actress Angelina Jolie a martial arts aficionado? Not sure. But she sure did have something quite smart to say recently about the martial arts and how they can help normally aggressive boys. "A lot of people who study martial arts know that if you have children who have any kind of aggression one of the best things to do is certainly not to ignore it, but to actually put that child into a martial arts class so they understand their own body, to learn discipline., to learn their own strength and then to harness it," Jolie told EW. "My boys wrestle all the time," she adds. "They're two boys, but they've been in martial arts classes for a while together and now they bow to each other, they know when to hit the mat [i.e. when they want to quit], they know when to stop wrestling. They have respect. But they're boys -- without that they're going to want to wrestle, to try things and test themselves. It's a primal thing. But to keep it in an organized way where it shows respect and discipline is fantastic." Get Your Child Started ...

JIU-JITSU AND THE INNER GAME

Long before I stepped on the mat for the very first time, my father
taught me to play chess when I was seven years old. I couldn’t really tell you exactly what it was about chess that sparked my interest, and I’m not
sure I can put my finger on it today. Long story short, it wasn’t too long
before the chess student was submitting his instructor. Some can relate to
that, we’ve seen it happen time and time again. In fact, if it’s true what they say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, there may be no greater compliment to any teacher or sensei than to see his students take what they’ve learned and eventually surpass their instructor. It’s hard to explain my interest in jiu-jitsu right from the very start; I guess it was a calling.

Over the years, I’ve spent so many hours training and competing, I’ve
hardly had time to get my chessboard out. I’m sure it’s in a box somewhere
with my Rubik’s Cube. Lately I’ve thought about finding that box and
maybe even getting back into chess again. Forget the Rubik’s Cube. One
thing I have done is to give some thought to what it is that first attracted me to chess and eventually to my passion in life, jiu-jitsu. The parallels are amazing to say the least.

There’s a harmony about chess just as there is in jiu-jitsu that appeals
to me and I’m sure it appeals to many others who train martial-arts. Chess is a game of the mind. It’s about thinking ahead. Jiu-jitsu is also a game of thinking and executing. Both are games that involve technique and timing. If we’ve learned anything from martial-arts it’s this: Training and technique take precedence over power. In my own case I’ve never been the strongest, but what I lacked in strength I made up for in training, hours and hours of training combined with technique. Einstein may not have been referring to jiu-jitsu, but he could have been when he said, “The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don’t know!” Or, as Socrates said, “One thing I know, and that is that I know nothing!” That may be what keeps my feet moving forward and motivates me to train. Like chess, jiu-jitsu is very complex. Anyone who knows me has heard me say this, “There may not be anything as complex as jiu-jitsu.” So, whether you’re playing chess in an international tournament or practicing jiu-jitsu, remember that training, technique, and skill will make the difference between the world champion and the guy who taps.

What is in your Kitchen?

The other night I was watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares with the famous chef Gordan Ramsey. If you are not familiar with the show, he basically is requested to consult on various restaurants that are on the brink of closing. For some reason the owners who bring him to their establishment never seem to know what is wrong in their business that is causing their lack of business. The first thing that he does in every episode is not take a tour of the kitchen or interview the staff. He simply orders randomly on the menu and tastes what the restaurant has to offer. He is always disappointed. The reason I bring up this matter is that there are a lot of similarities in which these shows expose that is obvious and what we need to focus on in our “quality”. While Chef Ramey is visiting Italian, French, Japanese and other various themed restaurants, it is parallel to us having a Tae Kwon Do, Kung Fu, MMA school. It doesn’t matter. What matters is how the chef prepares the food and the quality that will keep customers coming back as well as referring others to this business.
After watching the series for some time, it is not so much that the chef (Head Instructor) is not talented, it is that he/she has lost their passion. Possibly serving the same food over and over with no inspiration. They have not innovated their dishes or had challenged their creativity to have “Specials”. They are cocky in the fact that they do not need to learn once they have opened their kitchens.
So here is the obvious advice given in this part one of a series about innovating your teaching methodology.
Sample your food – Take a step back and see how your class is run. From the appetizer (trials or warm ups), main dish (Curriculum) and dessert (upgrade programs).
Go back to school – Take a workshop or cross over and have a goal in achieving rank in another style. You may find that even a bad experience will inspire what NOT to do in your mat.
Find a mentor – Success breeds success. But remember, just because someone says they are great doesn’t mean they are. Their proof will be in you.
We always believe what we do is good. It is not until we attempt change that we will see if something else can be better. So try it. We cannot fear it since we expect our students to do the same. In the next installment we will take a look at re-evaluating our class structure. See you then!

The End of the Month Reality Math-Jon Malach

The whole point of the end of month reality math is to refocus yourself and/or your team. Normally when people are short on sales, they begin to focus only on making the sale itself, rather than the things that makes sales happen. That’s where pressure selling tends to show its ugly face.
Instead, you can change this mentality by focusing on the number of appointments/intros needed to hit your sales goal, instead of the sales themselves. Think about it, you can actually get away with a lot more when it comes to asking people to try an intro vs. asking people to sign up for lessons. Rebuttals are much easier to overcome when they are in the arena of someone saying they don’t have time, or they can’t make it today, or maybe in a few weeks because they don’t feel well etc etc. You and your team will naturally overcome these kinds of rebuttals better than ones like “but your lessons are too expensive for me”.
So instead of increasing the pressure to sign up in your intros, just play the numbers game by focusing on increasing how many intros you get to do before the end of month, it will work itself out as long as you perform enough intro lessons.
Good luck,
Jon Malach
