I'm trying to change the way I walk.
I want to walk like that one girl I see at Walmart every night - picking up garbage.
She has one of those claw stick things.
Her boyfriend or husband or teammate (who knows) drives the vacuum truck around.
900 mph.
She walks all over the parking lot picking up what his truck can't.
She walks with purpose.
Standing straight up, her shoulders move back and forth like the hands of a ticking clock.
Left, Right, Left, Right, Left, Right.
One second at a time.
Short strides.
It's almost military the way she walks.
If I'd seen other military walk that way - but I haven't.
It's 10:30 pm.
She looks like she could kick your ass if you mess with her.
She probably could.
The don't F with me walk.
But who would want to mess with her.
Not because she's a fat slob.
Not because she is out of shape.
Because she is on a mission.
She has a job to do.
Her confidence is hot.

I once watched a talk from TED Talks.
The lady was talking about body language and how it's so important.
"Your Body Language Shapes Who You Are"
I believe that.
At least, she was able to convince me.
I liked what she said so I started to do what she said to do.
Here - watch a little:
Pretty powerful stuff. And if true (and there's no reason to doubt it) should lead to Open Doors and Opportunity.
It's actually the way I look at writing this blog.
If I'm not confident, I have nothing to say.
If I'm not passionate, I'm wasting your time.
If I'm not enthusiastic I'm really not helping you and being a cheerleader to the great things that are coming or possible in your own life.
If I'm not captivating you're not coming back or clicking to read more at the bottom of this post.
If I'm not comfortable with what I'm writing I shouldn't be writing it and you shouldn't be reading it.
And if I'm not Authentic I'm not being real.
All of it leads me to having a Presence.
There are only a couple people writing in this style - and I have my own voice.
Open Doors and Opportunity in 2 minutes.
Some people are astonished that I actually say some of the things I say and tell some of the stories I tell.
In fact, in last night's dream I was in a heated argument with some people I worked with because they felt Open Doors and Opportunity was going to hurt them or their business.
I was losing money I didn't even have (it was a dream) because I wanted to write real and be authentic with whomever comes here to read what I write.
It was a crazy dream.
I woke up exhausted but also confident that I'm on the right path.

The girl who walks in the Walmart parking lot at 10:30 - she's got it.
Whatever the "it" is that someone needs, she has.
It doesn't matter and I doubt seriously she even cares that she's picking up trash in the parking lot at Walmart.
May be the last thing on her mind.
She walks with purpose.
If there is trash, she's going to find it and get it.
That's my attitude about Open Doors and Opportunity.
I'm going to practice her walk.
Right after I power pose for 2 minutes.
