Today’s Motivation A TIP OF THE HAT


A TIP OF THE HAT

Most of us have goals. You know where you want to go and
have a desire to get there. Just how far have you come?

Acknowledging how far from your starting point you have
progressed is as important as keeping your eye on the goal.
You can’t know how much you have accomplished without
taking note of miles stones and giving yourself a pat on the back for having come so far.

Look back to when you began the journey to achievement, know what your prize is and congratulate yourself for sticking with it and the steps forward you have made.

Let me be the first to tip my hat to what you have already completed.

Today’s Motivation TAG, YOU’RE IT!

TAG, YOU’RE IT!

Everyone has had a childhood. For some it was a long
time ago. For some it wasn’t so far back since they never
out grew it. You know, the playful, happy-go-lucky ones,
the ones from which many could take a lesson?

The child buried within us has much to provide: a sense
of wonder at the world; a curiosity about everything; a
lighthearted way of being sprinkled with a helping of
mischievousness. As children life was less complex,
more immediate and sensory.

Put yourself in the space of children. Listen to them
laugh and shout, watch them explore and interact,
rekindle and relearn from them. Let the smile of child-
hood wash over you and you’ll be having fun before
you know it. Then… go infect another with the joys of
being a child.

Oh, just in case you didn’t know – TAG, YOU’RE IT!

Today’s Motivation CHANGE FOR A CHANGE

CHANGE FOR A CHANGE

I make it a point to never leave the house with change in my
pocket. When I buy something I almost always get change.
That change gets dropped into a jar every night when I return
home. The jar’s contents always grow.

I use the change for play money when we’re on holiday vacation.

This routine I’ve formed does two things. It creates the habit of
saving, even if it is just a few coins a day and every time I drop
the day’s coins into the jar I remember that there is a vacation
in my future. I am focusing on and attracting my time away, my
leisure time.

A new meaning to cha-ching!

Today’s Motivation GOOD, GOOD, GOOD, GOOD VIBRATIONS

GOOD, GOOD, GOOD, GOOD VIBRATIONS

You control your thoughts, your feelings and your emotions.
You are a conduit into the Universe by virtue of your being a
spiritual energy being. Like any magnet, we know that likes
attract likes. So, the level at which your energy vibrations are
transmitting is what you will get in return.

Operating at your highest and best thoughts and vibration will
return your highest and best results.

Think positive, nurturing, empowering thoughts and you will
attract that which is positive, nurturing and empowering.

Switch ON!

Today’s Motivation WHEN TROUBLES SURFACE

WHEN TROUBLES SURFACE

At some point life is going to hand you sour lemons, an upset or
crisis in your life. How you meet it determines your future success
and happiness. All of us will face an unexpected situation at some
point. It is inevitable.

Look closer at the situation and you will find that these situations
are merely masked opportunities. Whether change comes to you
by plan or not, by design or imposition, what takes place next will
either move you forward in life or leave you stuck.

However a crisis or change comes to you take responsibility, give
it a powerful context for growth, transformation, something of
uplifting value. Responding positively to change put you in charge.

A precious stone cannot be polished without friction, nor humanity
perfected without trials. ~Chinese Proverb

Today’s Motivation WHO DO YOU TALK TO THE MOST?

WHO DO YOU TALK TO THE MOST?

Who do you talk to the most? Is it your spouse? Your co-worker?
Your creator? Maybe you children, perhaps someone online?

Truth be told, you talk the most to yourself.

What’s important here is that you listen to what you say to yourself.
That small voice inside your head is constantly chattering away. It
can focus your attention on a myriad of things, both bad and good.

Does it say helpful, uplifting, positive things? Always looking for the
gold in every situation? Or is it putting you and everyone and every-
thing around you down, talking trash and negative?

That little voice has the power of a stadium speaker, loud and clear.
But, the best part is it can be trained. All you have to do and think is
that you are master of your thoughts. Start repeating “I am the master
of my thoughts” at least 50 times, twice a day.

You’ll begin to listen to the small voice in your head in a new way, in
an empowering and encouraging way. This simple shift in who you
talk to the most will alter your state of being and lead you to greater
inner peace and happiness. 

I am master of my thoughts. I am…
