Video! Someone needs it, today of all days!

TODAY OF ALL DAYS: RISE.
“The little things are the big things, 
when the big thing is love.“–Dean Minuto 
 
FIND ONE PERSON YOU CAN HELP THIS WEEK.
That is the mustard seed. If you know the parable?
— Or as my Devon called it “the ketchup nut”–

Someone needs to hear from you.
It is how we manifest LOVE in this world.
And it is how we are all going to get through this.

Video of Webcast: Top 5 Essential Brain Shortcuts in Disruptive Times

 
YESENTIALS® Shortcuts for Today’s Reality with Dean Minuto
 
Good morning, all!
By request of clients (many of them my closest friends) we have been recording 30-minute webcasts with their teams this week.
This is the most recent for you to view and share…
We have delivered 9 of them this week for Teams around the world– revising and improving the webcast as the week progressed.  The first part of the webinar is the one you see in this recording, the second part for my friends and long-time clients is when we open the call up for Q&A. 
Please share this video with folks you believe would find value in watching it– because there are two hard truths for us this week.. 
Patterns have been disrupted for EVERYONE you know, and

say YES to some requests–
say I NEED TO THINK ABOUT IT to others–
or flat out tell you NO.

where He keeps everyone’s bag of rocks… 
and let you set your bag down 
and peek into all the other bags…
You’d say:
“Give me back my bag, please.”
 
So many people carrying such a heavy load.
 
But what if we “re-framed” those rocks?
What if we carved into them the things we wanted?
