​I Expect Results – The Follow-Up

Accept. Adapt. Achieve! ®

Aloha ~

Today, I am following up on my previous post regarding the concept of expectations.
 
Now, to be sure, expectations are a concept of which we are all familiar.
 
And on our respective journeys along this road in life, 'tis not a random occurrence that these hope-filled words have reached your beautiful eyes.
 
Facing the introduction of the third month of the year, some of us are looking back at shattered (New Year’s) resolutions, broken promises, and perhaps a destroyed goal or two. Accordingly...
 
This week, I am starting a new 10-part weekly series titled “Your Roadmap to the Ideal Life.”
 
Each post will consist of a quick three-minute blog spot, culminating with a challenge and promise to add a little (more) faith and a (lot more) focus on the positive aspects of our respective lives.  
 
By doing so, we can achieve the best, most awesome, wonderful thing in the world...
 
We can achieve something called The Ideal Life.
 
Today, I ask you to consider the potential “results.”
 
As the title of this post states, “I Expect Results.”
 
The acronym for the title is simply I-E-R.
 
Together, let’s march into March expecting better results.
 
              How?
 
We don’t have to be perfect in our diets, employment positions, or daily dispositions.
 
If we need to lose weight, we don’t need to be suddenly healthy.
 
Instead, let’s be HEALTH-I-E-R… 
 
Let’s be healthier… for at least one meal a day, and perhaps by taking a walk every other day.
 
If we want to be less stressed and more forgiving, we don’t need to be abruptly holy.
 
Let’s just be HOL-I-E-R… holier than we were yesterday.
 
Perhaps we won’t save a million dollars over this next year…
 
But we can become WEALTH-I-E-R… wealthier by simply appreciating what we (already) have.
 
Please consider joining me as I Expect Results… I-E-R.
 
Together, we can achieve better results.
 
​Aloha,
​John

​John H. Clark III is an optimistic realist.
 
He believes better development of leaders is what we (all) need.  And to be better organizations, we need more good leaders, not followers. To build better leaders, we must start with the individual (you, she, he, and me).
 
Described as “an innovative leader,” John teaches leaders, organizations, and individuals how to inspire each other. With a bold goal to inspire a worldwide community of optimistic realists who continuously accept, adapt to, and achieve the bold and beautiful concept of The Ideal Life, John is leading a movement to inspire people to apply his trademarked mantra {Accept. Adapt. Achieve! ®}.
 
An innovative business manager and retired naval officer, John is fascinated by leaders and organizations that make the greatest impact within their organizational culture and within the “real” world — people who “get it.” Over the course of his life as a military leader, corporate mentor, and innovative content creator, John has discovered a wealth of insight about how we think, act and communicate within our respective work/life environments. As a career naval officer, mentor, educator, and optimistic realist, he has devoted his life to sharing insights to assist in our quests to become better at what we all do – live @ work!
 
An optimist with a penchant for writing about realistic solutions to the challenges of everyday life, John is the author of 3 books: a leadership-development insider, "The Ideal: Your guide to An Ideal Life," a teen-focused guide, "Getting Out: Expert Advice for Today’s Teens," and the Christian-based book, "God’s Heartbeat: A Powerful Premise for Leading a Christian Life."
 
He delivers a unique and refreshing point of view to life's seemingly overwhelming situations. 
 
Through books, blogs, and everyday conversation, John's message resonates with an empowering blend of ideals that enrich, uplift, and “authorize” people to set and achieve goals far beyond current mindsets.  His trademarked phrase is a winner:
