Wizdom at Work

4 Principles of Transformation

By: Dr. Daniel F. Lavanga

On a recent flight back to Philadelphia from Houston, I had the pleasure of meeting a lovely woman named Sarah. In speaking with Sarah, I learned that she travels often in her role as mortgage loan auditor and that she loves, loves to work with numbers. We discussed her assignment in Philadelphia and I gave her a few restaurant suggestions. I explained to her what I do as a corporate change agent, my deep interest in the dynamics of human behavior, and as I tend to do, turned the conversation to her story. You know the drill, “Sarah, what is your story?” She was born in Louisiana, no her family there was not affected by Katrina, although she had lived in Houston for over twenty years.

Her two grown daughters had blessed her with four grandchildren. She bravely left Louisiana with her young girls because her first husband had been abusive and she was determined not to end up like her mother. Her second husband, Leon, was unlike anyone she had ever met. He loved her children and insisted she go to school to pursue a career, so she could become self sufficient. Her eyes then welled up with tears as she told me that he had tragically died three years ago and she still missed him terribly.

By now we had drawn the attention of people around us on the flight and as happens quite often when I fly, I asked Sarah if she would be interested in a method I use in my work that helps people realize that nothing is missing. In effect, I told Sarah that I may be able to show her how Leon was still with her, just in another form. She was quite interested, but smiling skeptically. She agreed saying I was a master at building rapport and she recognized that due to the fact that building rapport with clients is an essential part of her work. So we began and I asked her to describe the traits she missed most about Leon. She cited his kindness, his desire to take care her, his love of travel, as he was a merchant marine, and his guidance of her career. Then I asked her who took over those roles immediately after Lean passed.
She thought for just a moment, a light went off in her eyes as she said her sister had become extremely kind to her since his passing and that was not their history together.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she recounted how her grandson, who was four at the time, came to her at the funeral and said, “Don’t cry grandma, I’ll take care of you.” I asked her when she had begun traveling for work and she shook her head and said, “Right after Leon passed, I told the company that I was willing to travel now.” She well up again when I asked her who was guiding her career now, as she responded that Leon was still there in her head telling her what to do. She praised what she saw as my almost psychic insight, but I explained to her the principles that I employed, and gave her an example that I use in the business world so she could accept this tool and integrate it into her already extremely knowledgeable and aware database.

Principle 1 Conservation: Nothing is missing, just transformed.

Principle 2 Reflection: What you see in others is in you.

Principle 3 Equilibration: Whatever trait you perceive was lost or taken away is right in front of you in another person or persons to the same degree.

Principle 4 The Great Discovery™: You will never have a gain without a loss, a praise with out a reprimand, or be put down without being supported to the same degree simultaneously.
These same principles apply to economics, the housing and stock market, ecology, and even the revolution of the planets. Every cause sets into motion an equal and opposite effect not separated in time, but perfectly synchronic and simultaneous. The challenge for us lies simply in digging deeply enough to see it. The systems and programs employed by Wizdom at Work are tools for using transformational thinking to rise to the new levels in business and life. The skills necessary to “think out of the box” are essential in this world of rapid transformation. We now have a method to assist people in transcending the blocks of the intellect and the emotions allowing an understanding of events in the past, equilibration of the strategies constructed in the present, and an acute predictability of the dynamics of the near and far future in human behavior, business, and global dynamics.

E.I.E.I.O. The Personal Development Farm

2009-09-09T18:39:00.000-04:00

E. I. E. I. O.
Life on the Leadership Development Farm

By: Dr. Dan Lavanga

Life on the farm has always been a powerful metaphor for growing a person or an organization with all the natural laws taking place there in plain view. There are a myriad of examples of how harmonizing with the powerful forces of nature is not only advantageous but an absolute necessity for any long term success.

Whether you are on the consulting side, in sales, a leadership position, or simply seeking additional ways to improve your effectiveness, The following five facets should be a part of what you seek to obtain and hope to deliver. We build all our programs at the Lavanga Group with the E.I.E.I.O. rule in mind.

Education: Learning begins in the brain as a network of neurons firing in a specific pattern. The more the firing is repeated and the stronger the stimulation, the shorter the learning curve. The learning curve is also accelerated when the knowledge to be conveyed is communicated through the value system of those whom you intend to influence. It is practically impossible and goes against human nature to resist something that is targeted towards someone’s highest values.

Information: Organizing and communicating data in a form you or your audience will readily and willingly seek to comprehend is the best method of communication. A key is to create a pattern or at least the perception of a pattern of sequentially organized and meaningful information in your message.

Entertainment: The prefix “enter” is relevant here as you create an event or performance containing visual, auditory, and kinesthetic aspects to entertain and engage your audience opening their eyes, ears, minds, and then their hearts.

Inspiration: Breathing life into, inspiring, a person both figuratively and literally is the ultimate goal. Uncovering a hidden dream or an idea that connects someone to their divine origin creates the enthusiasm in the physical body that catapults people to incredible performance levels.

Over Delivering Value: When you are completely committed to the four facets above the value becomes inherent. The one additional step to excel beyond your competition is for you to link your success to the success of those in your charge, your clients, or customers. This is the greatest guarantee that you will over deliver on value. Basically, set yourself up to have no choice!

The greatest harvest is in our own hearts and minds!

Working “IN” and “ON” Your Business
By: Dr. Dan Lavanga

You have all heard of the difference between working “IN” the business versus working “ON” the business. The professional must develop the skill of doing both and often simultaneously. The necessity of doing both for the individual, the business owner, or the employee who takes ownership of his or her position is paramount and here is why.

Consider that each of you is the CEO of your own business, the business of being you. Now aside from a momentary escape from reality, an out of body experience, or a trip to the Looney bin, it is very difficult to get outside of the business of being you. Most people are so busy and involved “IN” their lives just trying to be themselves, get where they are trying to go, or staying above water, that the concept of working “ON” their lives sounds impossible.

The seven sevens for working “IN’ and “ON” your Business are;

The Seven Areas - Include all aspects of living, spiritual, mental, vocational, financial, family, social, and physical life into your plans. Any area you do not master, someone else will become the master over you.

The Seven Levels - You must be aware of the level of consciousness in which you operate. The words you use will give you an indication of where you are. If you find yourself saying you have to, got to, should of or could of, versus you chose to, desire to, or love to then you are operating closer to the survive than the thrive level of consciousness.

The Seven Skills - Work from a blueprint, life, or business plan. Create or find a mastermind group, network, or coach. Implement your plans with organized action. Revaluate your progress regularly and integrate your plan of action and your highest values into your daily activities.

The Seven Steps - Your goals rise out of your mission and are stepping stones on the way to completing your plan. Use models and mentors to save you from reinventing the wheel. Your effectiveness and vitality are directly related to the vividness of your vision and your level of gratitude and appreciation.

The Seven Secrets - The world is an ever changing dynamic, the secret is to be dynamic yourself by expanding your intellect and consciousness, breaking things down, training your brain to see things from both sides of issues, being inspired, inspiring others, collaboration, and opening your heart.

The Seven Fears - Fear can fuel you or fool you. Look at the benefits of fears, understand that fears are part of who you are. Get comfortable with fear, use the energy of fear, you can’t run away from fear, in fact, what you fear you draw near.

The Seven Words of Power - Wisdom, gratitude, presence, certainty, inspiration, enthusiasm, and unconditional love, I challenge you to find a consistently high performing person or organization that does not possess and live by the words of power

Be the CEO of the Business that is you and all else will follow!

Wanted: Positive Person

Job hunting can get anyone down.

Here's how to stay upbeat and rise above the stress and competition.
By Julie Mehta, New York, New York

What are employers looking for?

Someone with skills, and just as important, a positive attitude.
Yet few experiences are more emotionally draining than searching for a job.

It ranks right up there with divorce among what psychologists call "negative life events."

How do you keep an upbeat outlook in the face of the anxiety, frustration and rejection that are often a part of job hunting?

Get Real

The sooner you confront these feelings, the better off you'll be, says Tony Beshara, author of The Job Search Solution. "I've talked to lots of people who say 'It doesn't bother me,' but inside they're going crazy." His advice? "Express your emotions—write them out or tape record them. Or share them with your spouse or a friend. But avoid pity parties." Don't deny, but don't dwell. Let your emotions out, then move on.

Get Out

"One reason people [who are out of work] feel sorry for themselves is they don't know what to do," says Beshara. "

Once they get into the activity of looking for a job, they become more positive about it."

Establish a routine and plan tasks just as you would at work.

Get up and dressed at a decent hour.
And get out of the house. "Surfing the internet will suck up all of your interview time.

Set up some in-person get-togethers with your networking contacts," says Allison Hemming, author of Work It! "You have to stay out there."
Make more contacts by joining associations in your industry.

Don't be shy about reaching out to family and friends who know how great you are—and who may know someone in your field who can hire you.

Get Balance

Important as your job search is, don't get so consumed by it that you put the rest of your life on hold.

Center yourself by starting the day with something you enjoy that is not job-related—listen to your favorite music, read poetry, say a prayer.
Exercise. It releases endorphins that alleviate anxiety and boost energy.

Pursue a hobby or finish up projects you've been putting off, so you gain a sense of accomplishment regardless of how your job search is going.
"I think one of the greatest therapies is to volunteer," says Todd Bermont, author of 10 Insider Secrets to a Winning Job Search. "

It makes you realize how truly blessed you are and can help build job skills."

Get Perspective

Focus on what you can do today instead of on yesterday's regrets or tomorrow's worries.

Keep trying new tactics.

A part-time job or consulting work can structure your day, build your confidence and expand your network while you're looking for a full-time position.

Gather notes of praise, good performance reviews and awards and post them up to remind yourself how much you have to offer.

The Industry

The fate of Detroit isn’t a matter of economics.
It’s a tragic romance, whose magic was killed by bureaucrats, bad taste and busybodies.

We embarked upon life in the fast lane with our new paramour.
It was a great love story of man and machine.
The road to the future was paved with bliss.

The car ceased to be object of desire and equipment for adventure and turned into office, rec room, communications hub, breakfast nook and recycling bin—a motorized cup holder. Americans, the richest people on Earth, were stuck in the confines of their crossover SUVs, squeezed into less space than tech-support call-center employees in a Mumbai cubicle farm.

Beyond The Peter Principle

Beyond the Peter Principle
Managing Emotions from a Larger Dynamic

By: Dr. Daniel F. Lavanga

An important part of business and life is managing and solving problems. How about if in this article I solve half of your problems for you? Sound too good to be true? Wondering how much it is going to cost? Well, I would love to charge for this bit of wisdom, but, if you read on you will get the skinny on the biggest obstacle that you face, YOU!

The entire human condition both the beauty and the beast in man can be traced at its core to human emotions. About half of the issues you will face are your own emotional creation. Wait you say, I am a consummate professional, mature, savvy about business, and measured in my approach to situations. That may be so, but in this article you will learn that even the most proficient professionals can avoid falling into a pit and step up to the next level with this information.

It is obvious that the failure to manage emotions in your professional or personal life increases the probability of failure. However, when it comes to emotions, knowing the way is not going the way! In fact, it is usually my clients with the highest level of intelligence that are most resistant to applying this wisdom.

So, what is it Dr. Dan, what is the secret to getting out of our own way? Drum roll please!!! The secret is called equilibrium, equilibration, or synchronicity. Biblically it has been expressed as the will of God being equilibrium, every mountain is leveled, and every valley is filled. So how does this principle work, what the heck does all this mean? To read on from here you must know that your entire world is about to be turned upside down and inside out!

Well first let’s assume you have it all together, you know your purpose, you’ve created a detailed mission statement to embody your vision, and you have a strategy in place to accomplish your goals. Next, what compels you to action, what takes you off on a tangent or pushes you into overwhelm? furthermore, why do want what you say you want? Whoa Doc, lots of questions here, I thought you were giving out the answers! Be patient grasshopper. The journey of a thousand miles starts with one step, or as they say in the car biz, the first payment.
Throughout our lives we have judged people and events as good or bad, positive or negative according to OUR value system, right? The more a thing affects us emotionally, upsets us, excites us, or pushes a button, the bigger the subconscious impression. These emotional charges become imprinted into our minds as memories and imaginations, sometimes floating around and filling our heads with what is called brain noise. In addition, future decisions we make regarding similar people or events will be affected, sometimes jaded by these past events.

Have you ever experienced a terrible person or event and as time went on you discovered that something just the opposite, something truly terrific has taken place because of that person or event? It is no accident! In fact, through science we now have discovered that every person or event is FULL QUANTUM, meaning that both poles, positive and negative are present eternally, instantaneously in every person or event. There is no time lag except in our perception.

This means that every time you judge or have judged a person or event as good or bad, you were only half right. Both sides are present, yet, we act as if one is not. We allow it to make a deep impression on us, upset us, or excite us, fill our mind with brain noise, even dream states, and change forever the way we make decisions. It’s the lies we tell ourselves!

Imagine if you dare the implications! Imagine the missed opportunities due to preconceived notions and past remembrances. Imagine the loneliness of lost love and pain of lost finances due to lopsided or half thinking. Imagine how we pass these illusions on to the people we love the most! Some of you have quit already, some are saying bull crap and some are still brave enough to read on!

Imagine if you saw instantly, that the people and events that challenge you the most and tic you off are the very ones that give you the greatest lessons and move you the furthest forward. Would you try to avoid them in the future? Would you fear “negative” events or people? Would you appreciate their existence in your life and literally thank God for bringing them there? Trust me, that would be a liberating revelation! Would you monitor your emotional excitement or infatuation for a person, business opportunity, or event if you instantly saw the potential downsides? Could any of these save you time, energy, and money? Could they save your relationship with your spouse, children, employees, or business associates? Could wars be prevented by clear full quantum thinking?

Finally, genius has been called the instantaneous recognition that a crisis is a blessing and vice versa. Seeing FULL QUANTUM or equilibrium keeps rash lopsided judgments, brain noise, and overwhelm to a minimum. This in turn liberates at least half of the issues that cloud the individual mind and shade judgment. In some cases I have seen 90% of a person’s issues gone in minutes of completing the exercise to dissolve lopsided emotional judgments. They begin to see events with balanced, clear thinking, and remove self- imposed obstacles. If in fact you are still here and this information has piqued your interest. Send me an email for more information on the tool to make it happen.

Start today to question your judgments of people and events, and see if you can find the other side!
