Motivation Expert Shawn Anderson: How I Stay Motivated

6-Time Author and Creator of Extra Mile Day Shares How He Keeps His Motivational Fire.

Los Angeles, CA, March 31, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/ -- The daily routine of life can get monotonous, and when it does, life can start to feel uninspiring. It’s at that point that motivational author and speaker Shawn Anderson believes it’s time for a personal wake-up call.

“When life loses its passion and our life purpose becomes uncertain, that’s the time we need to realize that the best version of ourselves has left the building,” Anderson says. “When a lesser version of us starts showing up in life, motivated living turns into mediocre living.”

Anderson, the author of six motivational books including Amicus 101: A Story About the Pursuit of Purpose and Overcoming Life’s Chaos and Extra Mile America: Stories of Inspiration, Possibility and Purpose, is passionately dedicated to empowering others to “live the life they love.” Besides writing and speaking, Anderson is the Founder of Extra Mile America, an organization which led 551 cities to declare November 1, 2015, as “Extra Mile Day”... a day to recognize the capacity we each have to create positive change in our families, organizations and communities when we go the extra mile.

Anderson shares five ways on how he stays motivated when results fail to meet expectations. First, he realigns himself with his purpose. “My motivations does not stem from how many books I sell or how many speeches I give. My personal motivation comes from focusing on the mission rather than the results. If I constantly looked at the results to determine how charged I am, my motivation would continually go up and down…and that is a long-term blow to staying consistently motivated.”

Second, Anderson doesn’t allow negative people and influences to dominate his day. “I pull the plug on negative people and thoughts as fast as they come into my world. Additionally, I keep my self sharp by reading and filling my brain daily with what energizes my spirit.”

Third, Anderson shares, “I get my motivational mojo going early in the morning. As soon as my feet hit the ground, I am not thinking ‘what do I have to do today?’ I am focusing instead on asking myself these questions: What am I excited about? Who can I encourage? What am I grateful for? By changing the first questions in my mind and focusing on empowering thoughts, I set a foundation for my day.”

Fourth, Anderson comments, “If I lose my motivational edge, I take the focus off a goal I am pursuing, and instead shine a light on someone else’s goal. The more we add value to others in lighting their fires, the more we begin to reignite our own fire.”

Finally, Anderson says, “I don’t let negative opinions change my course. Reviews, feedback…I don’t let someone's opinion chase me away from pursuing the path I walk. Not everybody will agree with us, and some won’t even get us. It doesn’t matter. We stay most motivated when we stay true to the passions and purpose we carry in our hearts.”

“We get one life and there are no do-overs,” Anderson concludes. “Why would we ever choose to walk any day with the second best version of ourselves?”

This program, which is aimed at Corporate China, will be officiated by Geng T. Liangding, the Chief Executive officer of CHCEX with a keynote address.

CHCEX Proceeds with Warehousing Reforms at its Affiliating Warehousing Partners

These will include re-assessing the possibility of capping or banning rents in queues and of capping the level of daily rents.

Beijing, March 24, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/ -- China Commodity Exchange (CHCEX), today announced its intention to implement its load-in / load-out (LILO) rule and to proceed with further warehousing reforms.

China_Commodity_Exchange.jpg
A four-week consultation with top warehouse companies began today with regard to some minor amendments to the LILO rule, including an altered start date following the required three-month notice period to warehouses.
“We are pleased to be moving ahead with our planned reforms following our decision to further modernize our facilities” said Geng T. Liangding, CHCEX Chief Executive Officer.

“As a respectable Asian exchange, CHCEX has a duty to ensure the integrity of its reference prices and the operation of a fair and liquid market for all industry participants. The implementation of the LILO rule and related reforms will assist us in continuing to fulfil this duty.”

“Following the start of our consultation, the behaviour of queued warehouses altered materially in that they have demonstrated a net load-out of commodities since that time in anticipation of the LILO rule,” said Ruan Wei Xinxin, CHCEX Head of Business Development.

“While it is true that market conditions have also improved, the market knows that a proportion of global metals production today still flows into storage. Without the LILO rule, large amounts of commodities could have been directed to affected warehouses, thus further lengthening queues. However, we believe that the anticipation of LILO has meant that this has not occurred on as large a scale as it would have done otherwise. And the introduction of LILO will ensure that, over time, stocks – and eventually queues – at the two remaining affected warehouses should fall.”

Opportunity for Beijing Investors to Capitalise On China's Market Strength and Tenacity in an Uncertain Market Environment.

Beijing, March 22, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/ -- CHCEX presented Invest in China Program to Beijing fund managers yesterday to share the latest achievements of the country's Economic Outlook.
China_Commodity_Exchange.jpg
Speaking to fund managers, Geng T. Liangding, Chief Executive Officer of CHCEX, emphasised China's natural advantage to tap into the fast-growing Asian markets.

"China's unique centrality provides a natural ability for Chinese companies to tap into the growth of Asian markets - a market of over 4 billion people. The large capitalised companies showcased here in Beijing demonstrate the depth of our capital market and those leveraging the Asian growth."
The Chinese delegation also took the opportunity to highlight China's capital market integrity. China has emerged as a world leader in regulatory practices and is recognised to be amongst the world's top 5.

"Being accorded a high status has allowed us to make in-roads with the Chinese funds. In fact, just a couple of days ago we were in Shanghai on a courtesy visit to the Shanghai Exchange where we discussed regional capital market developments", said Mr. Geng T. Liangding.

Jin Meicheng, Chief Investment Officer, indicated that the fund managers acknowledged the program as a positive one. "The Beijing fund managers noted the comprehensiveness of the program. They acknowledged that it should provide an incremental boost to companies in key growth sectors and are thus keen to look at opportunities for their funds."

Chan Danian, CHCEX’s Head of Research for China, shared that some of the interest in China stemmed from the fact that CHCEX has outperformed many of its peer exchanges. "The tenacity of Chinese companies to outperform provides some comfort in the current global market uncertainty and volatility", said Mr. Danian.

Expanded Foreign Exchange Capability Enables Businesses to trade in 16 Currencies from a Single Account.

Beijing, March 19, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/-- CHCEX has expanded and improved its foreign exchange solutions by introducing new enhancements that help corporate clients cut costs and simplify the way cross-currency Automated Clearing House (ACH) trading is made.
China_Commodity_Exchange.jpg
CHCEX’s market-leading solution is ideal for businesses with large volumes of non-urgent ACH trading that want to eliminate the administrative and financial complexity of managing and reconciling multiple foreign transactions. For example, one CHCEX client is using the capability to make its trades from one central account, even though its partners are dispersed globally. As a result, the client was able to close numerous in-country bank accounts and cut costs associated with multiple wire fees and managing and reconciling these accounts.

“CHCEX continues to invest in its foreign exchange services to help clients cut trading costs while improving operational efficiency on a global scale," said Ruan Wei Xinxin, Head of Business Development. "By expanding our cross-border ACH capabilities, CHCEX’s clients now have more currency and low value trading options. Clients also benefit from lower transaction, foreign exchange and reconciliation costs associated with using a single account rather than maintaining multiple local accounts globally."

CHCEX offers a full suite of foreign exchange solutions to meet clients' cross-border trading needs.

CHCEX has the solutions companies need to efficiently process international trading operations.

CHCEX’s Foreign Exchange Solutions offer:

Motivational Guru Asks, “Are You Living in a Funk?”

6-Time Motivational Author Shawn Anderson Leads Others to “Escape the Funk”.

Los Angeles, CA, March 15, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/ -- Best-selling motivational author and speaker Shawn Anderson has a mission of empowering one million people to lead a more positive and purposeful life. Often that means encouraging others to escape what he calls the “funk.”

“The monotony of every day life has the power to lure us into uninspiring routines,” Anderson states. “When that happens, inspiration is strangled from our lives, and we aimlessly stumble through our years until one day we wake up and question, ‘Where did my life go?’”

Anderson, a six-time author with 75,000+ books sold including Amicus 101: A Story About the Pursuit of Purpose and Overcoming Life’s Chaos and Extra Mile America: Stories of Inspiration, Possibility and Purpose, knows a few secrets about helping people leave the “funk.” Recognized for having interviewed hundreds of people who have moved past failure, rejection and tragedy in order to accomplish their goals, Anderson shares three funk-escaping tips to help people once again live a life they love.

First, Anderson says it is important to accept responsibility when dullness sets in. “If you’re unhappy or bored with your life, take a long look in the mirror. You created whatever you are living that you don’t like, and you can un-create it, too.” Anderson continues, “If you want out of the rut in which you’re trapped, quit making excuses, pointing fingers, and waiting for a hero to rescue you. Be your own hero.”

Second, Anderson shares that for long-term change to happen, it is critical to be patient and to not expect life-changing miracles overnight. “Magic wands with the power to change everything with a single swish don’t exist. It's impossible to reinvent yourself in a single day, and 180 degree change doesn’t happen that way,” Anderson shares. “Lasting transformation, however, does happen when we take positive daily steps towards creating the change we desire. Small steps taken daily add up to big changes in the future.”

Third, Anderson says, “Don’t wait for the perfect moment before you choose to create the changes you want in your life.” He continues, “Waiting for the perfect scenario to unfold before we make changes only prolongs our existence in Mediocreland. Go for it today because tomorrow might not arrive.”

Shawn Anderson is also the creator of Extra Mile Day - a day recognizing the capacity we each have to create positive change when we go the extra mile. On November 1, 2015, 551 mayors and cities declared Extra Mile Day and recognized those in their local communities who were going the extra mile in order to create change and make a difference. Anderson concludes, “We get one life. Why would we ever choose to waste a single breath living in a funk?”

Word Branch Publishing Releases Tides That Turn

Jamal Cadoura’s second novel takes readers on a journey of self-awareness through an unlikely friendship.

Marble, NC, March 09, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/-- Twenty-five year-old Matthew Stance is struggling to find his way in the world: he’s detached from his family and old friends, doesn’t have a career, and is still heartbroken over an ex-girlfriend of two years. Happiness is an illusion in Matthew’s eyes, something he chases endlessly but ceases to capture.

Tides_That_Turn.jpg
His life is altered when he sits on a vacated bench spot near the Detroit River - which happens to be claimed by Charles, a tenacious homeless man who combats and claws for what’s his.

Motivational Guru Shawn Anderson Offers 3 Tips to Escape the Funk

Shawn Anderson: “You don’t have to walk through life in a funk!”

Los Angeles, CA, March 8, 2016 /PressReleaseCircle/-- Motivational author and speaker Shawn Anderson has a mission of empowering one million people to lead a more positive and purposeful life. Often that means helping others escape what he calls the “funk.” “We can fall into routines that strangle the passion from our lives,” Anderson states. “When that happens, we walk through life in a funk until one day we’re hit with the realization ‘I wasted my life!’”
Shawn_Anderson.jpg

The author of six motivational books, including A Better Life: An Inspiring Story About Starting Over and Extra Mile America: Stories of Inspiration, Possibility and Purpose, Anderson is also the creator of Extra Mile Day - a day recognizing the capacity we each have to create positive change when we go the extra mile. On November 1, 2015, 551 mayors and cities declared Extra Mile Day and recognized those in their local communities who were going the extra mile in order to create change and make a difference.

Recognized for having interviewed hundreds of people who have moved past failure, rejection and tragedy in order to accomplish their goals, Anderson shares three funk-escaping tips to help people once again live a life they love.

First, Anderson says it is important to choose to quit living in the funk. “If you’re unhappy with your life, take a long look in the mirror. You created whatever you are living that you don’t like, and you can un-create it, too,” Anderson states. “If you want out of the rut, then quit making excuses, quit pointing fingers, and quit waiting for a hero to rescue you. It’s time to be your own hero.”

Second, Anderson shares that it is critical to be patient and to not expect life-changing miracles in yourself and your situation overnight. “It's impossible to reinvent yourself in a single day. Massive change doesn’t happen that way,” Anderson states. “Lasting transformation, however, does happen when we take small daily steps towards creating the change we desire. Small steps taken daily add up to big changes in the long run.”

Third, Anderson says, “Don’t wait for the stars to fall into perfect alignment before you choose to create the change you desperately desire.” He continues, “Waiting for the perfect scenario to unfold before we make changes only prolongs our existence in the rut. Live and live now because tomorrow may never happen.”

Anderson’s “juice” in life is helping others maximize their potential and create happiness in their day-to-day existence. “We get one life,” Anderson concludes. “Why would we ever choose to waste a single breath living in a funk?”
