Are you missing the signs?
Morning Motivation Do you find yourself in the same unwanted situation over and over again—emotionally, physically, financially? You might be missing the warning signs! Instead of thinking there’s nothing you can do, giving up, accepting your fate—you’ll always be in an unhealthy relationship, you’ll always have that extra 10 pounds, you’ll never have enough to pay the bills—start looking for the signs before the results you don’t want arrive! Slow down. Create awareness. Do you feel bad more than you feel good around this...
read moreWho is with you on your journey?
Morning Motivation Be in a relationship with, be in partnership with, be in business with, spend time with, associate with only those who bring out and expect your best. Those who believe in you and love you unconditionally. Those who raise you up. Those who challenge you to do better, be better and feel better—to reach farther, climb higher, go deeper. Our sphere of direct influence can be a source of confidence, motivation, inspiration, validation and support. Or, it can be a source of fear, judgment, competition, pain and...
read moreAre you keeping your promises?
Morning Motivation The most important promise you keep is the promise you made to yourself. How often do we promise ourselves we’re going to change something, or do something differently, or improve our health, or finish what we started, or finally reach for our dreams—only to be the first victim of a broken promise? Stop making promises to yourself you don’t keep! Make less promises. Make more realistic promises. Start small. Do whatever you have to do. Just keep your word to yourself. When you create from what you have, you need to...
read moreWho are you blaming?
Morning Motivation Instead of blaming yourself or blaming someone else for where you are or what you have, focus on the here and now. Where you are right now? What do you have right now? That’s all the matters! Take inventory. Can you recognize and appreciate all that you do have? It doesn’t matter whether you have a lot, a little, everything or next to nothing, you have enough to create something from—hope, a new direction, forgiveness, peace. The blame game accomplishes nothing except giving away your power. Stop blaming. ...
read moreWhere’s the light?
Morning Motivation Instead of facing every task and every person you encounter as something or someone to be judged, feared, avoided, liked, disliked, considered good, bad, right, wrong, special, not special, boring, a threat—find the light! The positive, uplifting light of it all. In the mundane, the tedious, the difficult, the easy, the bright, the dark, the beauty, the grizzled, the normal, the abnormal—look for the light, see the light, appreciate the light, create the light, create from the light. You have control over what you...
read moreWhat colors are you creating with?
Morning Motivation Just like our favorite food or sweater, we get used to eating, using and wearing the same colors. It’s safe. We believe we look good. We think we know what tastes the best. We hope it slims our hips. Don’t be afraid to use all the colors you have in your crayon box! What other colors are you not seeing that you actually have—in the physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual realms—that you can create from? You have the rainbow and the spectrum of light at your disposal. You just have to open your eyes,...
read moreThe Power of Your Dreams
THE POWER OF YOUR DREAMS Have you ever stopped to think about the power of your dream? Martin Luther King, Jr., Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Teresa and Rosa Parks did. They channeled the power of their dreams and manifested change. Maybe your dream doesn’t feel as big or as important but it is…to you and to those who love you. You have a dream. Don’t be afraid to declare it, to act on it and to focus on making it come true. It will change you in a positive way when you take action towards making it happen. It will change...
read moreHave you found a path?
Morning Motivation Instead of wandering aimlessly on the path of least resistance, make a choice. Decisions are empowering. You are in control when you decide. Create a decision! Choose a path. See where it leads. Discover its possibilities. Create from wherever you are with whatever you have along the way. You can always create a change in direction. Find a path. See where it leads. Create along the way. —From What You Have What are you going to create? ...
read moreAre you reaching for your dreams?
Morning Motivation Reaching out—literally as well as figuratively—takes effort. Whether you’re reaching out to a friend, reaching out for a plate of food or reaching out to the Universe, you’re expending precious resources. Why not focus your reaching out towards what you’re dreaming to create? Health, love, peace, art, a business, financial security—whatever you dream of, reach for it! Focus your reach. Reach for your dreams. Create your dreams. From what you have. What are you going to create? ...
read moreWhat are you holding on to?
Morning Motivation Instead of holding on to the way it was supposed to go or the way it was supposed to be, instead of holding on to something or someone that’s gone, or weighing you down or holding you back or keeping you stuck, release your grip on it so you can shift your energy and focus your vision on creating the life you want. What are you holding on to—the past, ideas, people, negative self-image, anger, resentment, fear, belief systems, successes, failures, rights, wrongs, good, bad? Let it all go. Move on. Forgive...
