Always a Way
Always a WayWhen life gets in the way, do you get frustrated about being blocked? I used to be that way. Something changed.I learned a long time ago that getting blocked was going to be an everyday occurrence. And, the bigger my goals, the more blocks would arrive. I could live with endless frustrations - or find a better way. It came down to this:1) Blocks have nothing to do with who I am. They could be self-inflicted or caused by others, but they still have nothing to do with me as a person. 2) If you want something, there is always a way to get it. Always… always… always. You may not like the path. Your ego may get in the way. It may scare you. There is always a way.The next time frustration gets in your way, blow it off and keep moving. There is always a way to get what you want. Find it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Get What You Want
Get What You WantI just got off the phone with a client. We were chatting about getting moving. She said, “That’s the hardest part! I need help getting off my butt.”She’s not alone. Getting what you want comes down to pure physics:1) An object at rest stays at rest, and an object in motion stays at the same speed and direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.2) Inertia must overcome your resting state or your current path. That will require a -3) Catalyst is what gets you moving - otherwise known as motivation. What will get you moving today? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

3 Steps to Stay Motivated
3 Steps to Stay MotivatedI wondered why I couldn't always have my way as a child. Mom and Dad were so mean! I couldn't wait to grow up, move out, and experience being an adult. Everything would be different - or so I thought.After stepping into the adult world, it didn't take long to realize that not much had changed. It turns out it wasn't my parents. It was a life that was turning down my requests. Life was getting in the way, and what was even worse was that I was getting in my way.I've joked over the years that if I'm the Boss of me, why don't I do what I say? Eventually, I realized having a big ass goal, being on a mission, and, most importantly, motivation on demand was the solution.Motivation is a powerful, if not fleeting, tool we all need. But we need to understand how our minds generate motivation:1) Your physiology dictates your feelings. Movement wakes your body, guides your emotions, and makes anything possible. The easiest way to break free of a slump is to stand up, take a step, and REPEAT.2) Focus fuels your fire. If you are unmotivated, you are drifting in the wind without direction. Shifting your thoughts in a positive direction and toward what excites you will break you out and get you moving.3) The words you say create the emotions you feel. Negative self-talk will drag you and everybody else down. Everything changes when you make the words you say to yourself, internally and externally, positive and uplifting. Words matter more than you think.You're human. Your brain isn't wired to stay always motivated unless you are willing to give it a helping hand. Learn more about your ad choices.
