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...

Morning Motivation — Are you starting?

Posted by

Are you starting?   To build something iconic, to begin something that lasts, to create something special, you must first start it. If you never start you will never know.  If you never start you will never experience.  If you never start you will never finish.  If you never start you will never change.  If you aren’t starting whatever it is you want to create right now, why aren’t you starting right now?  If you start, maybe you’ll fail.  If you start, maybe you won’t finish.  If you start, maybe you still won’t change.  So what?  Start anyway.  See what happens. Start creating! What are you going to create?   ...

Morning Motivation — Do you believe you can?

Posted by

Do you believe you can?   Instead of wondering if you can, hoping you can, or thinking you can, believe you can.  There seems to be something almost magical about truly believing you can do something, have something, go somewhere.  It gives a certain confidence, energy and strength to your actions.  Do you believe you can do it?  Do you believe you can have it?  Do you believe you can get there?  Do you believe you can create it?  Believe in yourself.  Believe in your vision.  Believe in your dream.  Believe in your idea. Believe in your creation.  And most of all, believe you can.   What are you going to create?...

Morning Motivation — What are you spreading?

Posted by

What are you spreading?   Instead of spreading anger, resentment, jealousy, insecurity, doubt, or hate, spread gratitude, joy, kindness, peace, confidence, and love.  You have another chance today to choose to be kind, to smile, to make someone laugh, to share something with someone else, to make a difference, to do good work, to do your best work, to speak up, to try new things, to experience everything in front of you as if you are experiencing it for the first time.  Choose wisely what you are spreading. Choose the positive. Spread the positive. Be the positive. Create from it. What are you going to create?...
