About Serge ‘Mage’ Cote Why do I write? I believe in the butterfly effect. As small my influence may be on the planet, it is still influence. I want to orient it for the better. I write my book with the idea of bringing something good into this world. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke I want my books to be a good place to be. A place that you visit often and feel good about it. I want my books to bring good energy so the readers will take action to make this world a better place. I want my books to guide those who don’t know why they feel so bad about their life. I want my books to be there after I’ll be gone. I want people to come back to them and use them in a positive way. “The greatest use of a life is to spend it on something that will outlast it.” – William James

Your word

yourword

Do you keep your word?

 

When you way that you’ll do something, are you doing it?

 

Can you show some resolve?

 

Keep your word, something that still has a lot of power.

 

Facing two people that need your help, you’ll always choose the person that has been there for you before. Someone who has kept his word with you.

 

Do you want to be that person? Someone that others trust and respect.

 

“Keep your word. Honor commitments, and they will double back to honor you.”

– Bill Rancic

People trust people who keep their word.

 

Keeping your word can be hard. It can be a lot of work. In the end it could be worth so much more than all the work you did.

 

Don’t help someone for the return. Do it because you think it’s the right things.

Work with reality

work

We all have to learn to work with reality. We all have to learn to adjust our action according to what is happening around us. We can’t have control over what is happening, but we do have control over how we choose to see and react to it.

 

“I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.”

 – Audrey Hepburn

 

If you only walk in the direction of your dream, you’ll accomplish more then all those who are still looking around to find the fastest way to get it. No action is perfect, but it’s with action that the most wonderful success becomes reality.

 

“Life is not a problem to be solved, but a reality to be experienced.”

 – Soren Kierkegaard

 

Instant success is a myth! No ones get instant success, there’s always a long road of mistake that leads to success. The only reason why some people end up with success and other doesn’t is because some stop taking action and others kept going on.

 

“A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing.”

 – George Bernard Shaw

Don’t be among the ones who are staring at the people who are living their dream on TV. Stand up and take action to have a chance to live your dream. Yes, looking at people that have success can be inspiring, but don’t fall into the trap of living success through them instead of going for your own success.

In silence.

 

Center yourself and create.

 

Don’t be afraid of silence.

 

Sometimes, you say a lot more when you stay silent.

 

People know what you mean even if you don’t say a thing.

 

Respect silence. Use it wisely.

 

There’s power into silence. For good or evil, it’s all up to you.

Easy

easy

 

We all tend to do what is easy.

 

That’s the main reason why only a few are successful. They do get out of their comfort zone to do what others don’t.

 

“Life begins at the end of your comfort zone…”

– Neale Donald Walsh

 

If you want to be among the top, you have to do what most don’t.

 

Most will stop when things are not working like they want. Only those who keep going on will reach their goal.

 

Mistakes are there to show you that you are getting out of your comfort zone. Don’t stop there. Keep going on. Work on finding a better way to reach your goal.

 

Mistakes are only signals. It’s not the end.

You think

youthink

 

Whatever you think is going to happen ‘IS’ going to happen.

 

“Whether you think you can, or you think you can’t…   you’re right.”

– Henry Ford

 

You are your worst enemy. You are putting the block in front of you so you can’t succeed.

 

We always can find good logical reasons not to succeed. And they are great ones.

 

If you find a way to stop looking for great reason to fail and start to look for great reason to keep going on, maybe you’ll find success.

 

Success is a choice. Choose to look for a way instead of looking for a reason to quit.

Don’t give up

gontgiveup

 

Be creative! Adjust! Don’t give up!

 

It’s ok to change the course as long as you know where you’re heading.

 

All the planning will never make it easy. Planning is good to give you the guts to start.

 

Bump in the roads are normal, don’t stop going forward because you need to change a wheel. Change the wheel and go forward again.

 

Success is there beyond your fear.

 

“Don’t give up on your dreams, or your dreams will give up on you.”

– John Wooden

Don’t give up on your goal. Because if you do, you’ll be like everyone else.

Energetic

energic

Energetic speech has to be created around energetic word.

 

Using action oriented verb and word will help.

 

Leave the « But » out. When you use a “but” in your speech, it creates a motion stop. And you don’t want any stop into an energetic speech.

 

Prepare your speech on paper.

 

Learn your speech even if you will have your paper with you.

 

Train to do your speech so you put the emphasis where you’ll get the best punch.

 

“It isn’t about the words you say. It’s about the energetic message you send.”

– Pete Carroll

The message is the first things, but the word you use will help share the message. Use the right words.

Trust

trust

 

Put your trust in yourself.

 

Invest your energy into your dream.

 

“Trust in dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity.”

– Khalil Gibran

There’s always a reason behind every advice. Make sure they are good for you.

 

Listen to every advice, but follow only the ones you can trust to be good for you.

 

“If someone gives you so-called good advice, do the opposite; you can be sure it will be the right thing nine out of 10 times.”

– Anselm Feuerbach

Follow your guts, if you feel it’s good for you. Then follow it.
