Morning Motivation — What’s your paradise?

Posted by

What’s your paradise?   Every person has their own idea of paradise—the tropical island, the idyllic countryside, a bustling city, the day without screaming children.  Whether you are in these exact locations or not doesn’t matter.  You still have control of whether you are in paradise.  Shift your thinking.  Adjust your attitude.  Wherever you are.  Whatever you have.  Whoever you’re with.  You are exactly where paradise is!  It’s your choice.  Make the choice to create paradise wherever you are with whatever you have right now and in the process be empowered and happier. Appreciate what you have. Be thankful for your loved ones. Create your own paradise....

Morning Motivation — Are you sailing?

Are you sailing?   There’s excitement in setting sail—on a trip, at the start of a new day, at the beginning of a project, at the blush of first love.  Set sail today!  No matter what is on your to-do list, no matter who you are meeting with, no matter what you are doing—sail.  Feel the wind on you skin.  Feel the motion of the earth below the sea.  Feel the freedom in the endless ocean in front of you.  You can sail any moment of any hour of any day of any week of any month of any year of any life.  Choose to sail in life. Create your sail. What are you going to create?...

Morning Motivation — Are you connecting?

Posted by

Are you connecting?   Do you remember the last time you made a true connection—with someone or something or some idea?  It had magic in it!  Connecting creates power.  If you don’t connect to something you will never care about it.  If you don’t connect to someone you will never care about him or her.  If you don’t connect to your self you’ll never know your self.  If you don’t connect to what you’re creating you will never create it. Truly connect to yourself and to everything and everyone around you.  No agenda.  Not wanting something.  Just true connection.  Connection is key.  Connect to create. Connect to your self. Connect to others. Connect to your...

Morning Motivation — What gets you in the flow?

Posted by

What gets you in the flow?   What gets you in the flow—that motivated, glorious state of single-minded focus where the world melts away and it’s only you and your creation?  Clear your schedule.  Carve out the time.  Shut off the electronics.  Turn off the phones.  Send the kids on a play date.  Go to the library.  Go to the beach.  Meditate.  Turn on your favorite music.  Dance.  Do whatever you have to do to prepare yourself for getting into the flow of creating.  In order to give yourself a chance to reach flow you have to prepare for it.  You have to allow for it.  You have to welcome it.  You have to invite it in.  Create an atmosphere that lets you deeply...

Morning Motivation — What is enough?

Posted by

What is enough? How much money will it take?  How low does the scale have to go?  How many “likes” are enough?  Enough with the insatiable cravings!  Instead of constantly wanting—more money, to be skinnier, to be liked, to be somewhere else—start creating.  Get busy creating from what you already have and you won’t have time to worry about what you don’t have.  If you focus on creating, you won’t have time to worry about what anyone else thinks of you either.  Free yourself!  Decide that whatever you have and wherever you are right now is enough.  In fact, it’s actually perfect!  You have enough money.  You have enough talent.  You have enough love.  You have enough...

Morning Motivation — Are you directing your life?

Posted by

Are you directing your life?   You are the star of your own blockbuster movie!  You write the script, you choose the locations, you choose your leading lady or leading man, you choose your supporting cast.  You are the director.  Direct your life in the direction you want it to go!  Direct your health towards longevity and feeling good.  Direct your relationships in a way that is right for you.  Direct your finances towards security.  Direct your career where you dream of it going.  Direct your thoughts so they make you smile.  You are in control!  You decide when to say, “action.”  You decide when to say, “cut.”  You have so much more power than you realize.  Use...

Morning Motivation — Are you following your light?

Posted by

Are you following your light?   In a world where advertising of what you don’t have, the salacious, the bad, the ugly, the underbelly of human nature bombard you, it’s easy to be scared.  It’s easy to feel less than.  It’s easy to complain.  It’s easy to compare.  It’s easy to compete.  It’s easy to let your anger out.  It’s easy to judge.  It’s easy to see the worst-case scenario.  What if you choose to stop falling victim to it?  What if you choose to focus on the positive instead of the negative?  What if you choose to focus on the solution instead of the problem?  What if you choose to look for the answer instead of being lost in the question?  What if you...

Morning Motivation — What matters?

What matters? Stop right now. Take a deep breath. Take another one. Get your bearings. Calm your core. Center yourself. Plant both feet on the ground. Feel into your heart. Take another deep breath. Now, what matters?  Do that. What are you going to create?...

Morning Motivation — Who are you?

Posted by

Who are you?   Instead of letting your family, your friends, reality TV, celebrities, fashion, trends or society tell you who you are, figure it out for yourself!  Free from labels, attachments or ideas of who you think you should be, figure out who you really are—at your core essence.  You are so much more than what anyone else thinks of you!  You are not someone else’s idea.  You are not an object.  You are not a statistic.  You are not a punch line to someone else’s joke.  Dig deep into your heart and find out what’s in there.  Don’t be afraid to discover yourself.  Step into all of who you are.  Live your truth. Discover you. Know yourself. Create from who you...
