There are things that...

Disturb us, let's not kid ourselves.

And they usually do so, when we allow our thoughts to become a tad less
than positive...when confronted with challenges in our lives.

But things happen, that's life...

So when things do disturb us, we can:

1. Get more positive and get past it.
2. Spin it and Win it...into a Positive, a Lesson or an Opportunity.
3. Or put it in out "No Drama Box".

Whatever we choose to do, the main point is that we "get over it", and
go
about our business.

It's not work...

It's Practice.

Spin it and Win it!

By doing something on a repeated basis, we only get better at it as we
do it. So why not think of it as practice and see just how good we can
get.

Remember, it's not what we do, it's how we do it.

So whatever we do, and choose to Spin, whether it's dusting, playing
guitar, homework, exercise, working ...whatever...Let's take it to the Top!

It doesn't take all day...

To realize the Sun is Shining.

Yet, occasionally, we do take all day...and sadly we realize that we were part of something really special...when
it's almost over.

But, we can "Spin it and Win it" for our future, by not allowing our
perceptions of finding we are part of something really special...late
in the game.

We can go into every situation and pick up on the sweet
vibe we bring...from the very start.

It's not a record unless it Spins.

That's the way it goes, and everyone at Zappos sure did "Spin it and Win it".

We broke the all time sales record yesterday and it was the culmination of the whole team, giving what we got.

In all areas, we banded together and faced the economic headwinds with
a beautiful plan, determination and focus - to give our valued
customers and recipients of Holiday gifts, exactly what they wanted,
making this time of year just that much more enjoyable.

And being in Las Vegas, it doesn't snow much, but it was no surprise,
that I woke up and looked around the valley and saw all of the hills
proudly dusted with snow.

Looks like the powers that be, gave Zappos a big seal of approval...by putting "icing on the cake".

Thanksgiving?

It sure is a day to Give Thanks for all that we have, and Everyone in
our lives.

Tradition usually dictates that we spend time with family, which can be
wonderful, but in some cases, can be a bit challenging. We pick our
friends, but not our family, and that can be the "rub".

If we anticipate a challenge with a family member, we can "Spin it and
win it" for the future.

We had Uncle Jack...at the dinner table, he would periodically give a
good lean to the side, and release any gas that was building up, and
continue eating like nothing happened. And then there was
Aunt Mary Pat...she usually got over served and passed out by mid
afternoon.

At first, everyone was appalled and upset, but after a while we just
took it in stride and actually enjoyed the shows...making side bets, on
how many times Uncle Jack would do it, and what time Aunt Mary Pat
would hit the floor.

So have a Happy Thanksgiving, and if you have to, "Spin it and Win it"
with any relative that you didn't pick.

None of us are around forever, but fond memories are.

Spin it and Win it...In the Future?

Yes, you can go into a future situation with different attitudes and perceptions.

You can go to a dental appointment with the view that "It will very
uncomfortable and that you will dread the shot and the drilling while
imagining the smoke billowing from your mouth as the Doctor hits a
nerve."

OR you can imagine that " I can't wait to see my dentist again because
I always get a new toothbrush and some floss and that you haven't had
your teeth drilled in a long time and that you are really excited to
get the work done to keep your oral hygiene the best it can be...and
the smoke from the drilling has a unique smell that you can't get
anywhere else."

Just - Spin it and Win it - Before it happens.

Yours in Choice - Coach

Always Positive?

Can't be.

We all have received some pretty hard blows in our lives, and they could of
been personal, financial, physical or spiritual...it's just part of
life - things happen, and we occasionally get hurt.

After a hard hit, we tend to match our emotions with our
experience...it's just part of balancing out.

So when the experience demands it, and not otherwise, go ahead and go
through all the scenarios in your head ONLY - get angry, imagine
retribution, think of how you could of prevented it, if possible - for
however long you need - Let It Go and then...

Spin it and Win it - into a Positive or a Lesson.
