Waking Up With Gratitude

Waking Up With GratitudeI woke up this morning with an incredible zest to expand my feeling of gratefulness. Well, there is not so much to expand as to recognize all the things I am grateful for but haven’t thought about lately.That’s the thing about living in a fast-paced world where our daily activities, big and small, fly by and are quickly forgotten. It’s always been that way. There is nothing new in the world. That got me thinking about one of my favorite quotes —“Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.” —Robert BraultAs a no-regrets guy, I admit to sometimes not living in gratitude. Thankfully, the wisdom of others is always making sure I remember what is important—Here are a few of my favorites.“If a fellow isn’t thankful for what he’s got, he isn’t likely to be thankful for what he’s going to get.”—Frank A. Clark“Acknowledging the good that you already have in your life is the foundation for all abundance.” —Eckhart Tolle“Who does not thank for little will not thank for much.” —Estonian Proverb“Gratitude is a quality similar to electricity: It must be produced and discharged and used up in order to exist at all.”—William Faulkner“Enough is a feast.”—Buddhist Proverb“When you are grateful, fear disappears, and abundance appears.”—Anthony Robbins“When eating fruit, remember the one who planted the tree.”—Vietnamese Proverb“Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings, turn routine jobs into joy, and change ordinary opportunities into blessings.”—William Arthur Ward“A thankful heart is not only the greatest virtue, but the parent of all the other virtues.”—Cicero“Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.”—Robert BraultI’m grateful for YOU!

Why You Should Set Impossible Goals

Why You Should Set Impossible GoalsI recently attended a conference where I enjoyed a presentation by Psychologist Dr. Benjamin Hardy. Honestly, I’ve been a fan of his work for a couple of years and am familiar with most of his working concepts. This time… one stood out.In my day-to-day work, it’s not uncommon for clients to struggle with narrowing a goal to one with enough meaning to propel them into action.In most cases, it’s a struggle between the important and the impossible.A goal must be important enough to excite you, but that can also make it seem impossible and scare you. But that’s what you want and need.According to Dr. Hardy, when you limit your goals to only the most important and almost impossible from where you are today, you are forced to use a very tight filter to figure out how to make it happen. In other words, taking random action will not help you reach an impossible goal. Only a highly filtered, very disciplined, and nearly surgical approach will make it happen. If you are doing anything else, your goal isn’t big enough.Instead of go big or go home, go big and figure it out is the way to success. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

How Purpose and Passion Make a Better Life

How Purpose and Passion Make a Better LifeFrom the time I was very young, I've been drawn to living a passionate life - no matter what gets in the way. I've also had a solid purpose to impact people's lives while living a passionate life positively. Something can be challenging to archive 100% of the time. But isn't that the point of Passion and Purpose? Isn't it something that you just DO?Amazingly, for all the focus on living a purposeful and passion-filled life, there has been very little research. A solid definition has only been agreed upon in the last few years - and it says a lot. I'll let it speak for itself.Passion is defined as a strong inclination toward an activity that people like, find important, and in which they invest time and energy. Purpose is defined as a stable and generalized intention to accomplish something personally meaningful and, at the same time, leads to productive engagement with some aspect of the world beyond the self.As I've always said, "If you don't know your purpose, your purpose is to find your purpose."And the best way to do that is to follow your passion. (Read the above description again for more impact)Purpose and Passion. It's like Chocolate and Peanut Butter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Unleash Your Potential with Anticipation

Unleash Your Potential with AnticipationI love how kids live in the moment while also getting excited about the next fun thing coming. Maybe it’s time we all begin acting like kids again.Since you were young, special events excited you enough that sheer anticipation would drive you all day and keep you up at night. Would you like that back in your life? The trick to harness the power of anticipation is to keep a steady stream of exciting moments in your future. I call this the Anticipation Engine. There are two things to keep in mind:1) Your energy is dependent on getting excited about your future. Keep your list long.2) Once an event passes, your excitement will disappear.Enjoy the current moment. Don’t rush ahead, but always have something fun coming next.Living a life of anticipation always gives a natural energy boost. If your life is bland - schedule something fun and get excited again.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
