Morning Motivation — Can you see a glimpse of your dream?

Posted by

Can you see a glimpse of your dream?   Start looking for your dreams everywhere!  Even if you can only see a glimpse of a dream that’s enough of a catalyst to get you excited about discovering more and more until you create it.  See a piece of your dream and begin creating it!  Keep looking and you will see more and more dreams you can create—from smiles, to kindness, to a positive gesture.  See your dreams.  Create your dreams…from what you have. Open your mind. See a glimpse of your dream. Create what you see. What are you going to create?...

Morning Motivation — What are you thinking?

Posted by

What are you thinking?   Do you realize how powerful your thoughts are?  They are the first step in creating anything.  What are you thinking?  Are you thinking about the best possible things or are you focusing on the worst-case scenario?  Instead of thinking negatively, thinking about what you lack, thinking about what you don’t have, shift your mind and think positively, think about your strengths and think about what you do have.    Use your thoughts as a way to begin creating from what you have.  If you think about what you have in a new way it will spark new ideas and new ways to create something from it.  Think about what you already have in your life in a...

Morning Motivation — Are you reflecting?

Posted by

Are you reflecting?   Have you ever stopped to reflect on what you are currently creating and if it’s what you actually want to be creating?  Instead of mindlessly speeding through life unconsciously creating, slow down and begin consciously creating.  Take the time to reflect on what you have already created in order to determine what you want to create as you move forward.  What have you created in your life, your health, your relationships, your career, your finances?  Seriously think about what you have created up to this point.  Are you creating what you truly want to create?  Or, do you not like what you see reflecting back at you?  What is the reflection of...

Are you ready to play ball?

Morning Motivation   Instead of watching from the sidelines or sitting in the stands get in the game and play ball!  It doesn’t matter if you know the rules.  It doesn’t matter if you aren’t sure where to go.  It doesn’t matter if you have no idea what you’re doing.  Just create from wherever you are with whatever you have right now!  Make it up as you go along.  You are the MVP of your life.  Create your own game.  Create your own playing field.  Create your own rules.  If you don’t get in the game you’ll never discover how to play.  Create something from what you have.  Watch your game expand.

Are you exercising your liberty?

Posted by

Morning Motivation   If you have liberty, count your blessings!  And if you have it, are you exercising it?  You have the power to choose, think and act for yourself.  Don’t wait for someone else to do your choosing, thinking and acting for you.  Use your power.  Get going!  You may not have millions, you may not be famous, you may not have access to everything it seems you need to accomplish all of your goals but what you have is enough to begin.

How do you define success?

Posted by

Morning Motivation   There are a lot of different sources out there that have a very specific definition of success.  From how much you should weigh to how much money you should make to with whom you should be associated with to what you should believe—all in order to be deemed “successful.”  Instead of trying to fit into someone else’s definition of success define your own version.  What truly makes you feel successful?  Being kind?  Smiling at strangers?  Making someone laugh?  Being able to walk?  Paying your taxes?  Being a good member of your community?  Sending your kids to great schools?  Taking care of your parents?  Accomplishing your goals?  Create your...
