Motivational Monday #5

How do we feel when Monday rolls around? Are we sad because the weekend is over or are we excited for what we get to go do, the people we get to see and what we get to accomplish throughout the week? One of the greatest things that makes the impact on our week is one word and that is our attitudes. It not only affects us but it affects our offices and all those that we are around as well.

Below is a little challenge for us all to get a little bit out of our zones compliments of Darren Hardy. 

Action for today: 
Today, perform (at least) 5 acts of positivity.

For instance, you can:
– Be friendly to those you don’t know.
– Tell someone they did a great job (and mean it).
– Use the power of a smile to reverse the tone of a situation.
– Enjoy the unexpected, even when it’s not what you originally wanted.
– Be a source of energy that lifts those around you.
– Show happiness for someone else’s success.
– Pay a compliment, even to a total stranger.
– Vocalize the beauty of the view, the weather or your surroundings.

Your attitude determines most of what you experience each day, what you put out and what you get back from others. 

It is something that is easy to neglect, but it is so important to the outcome of your life

Motivational Monday #247: Adapting is not a luxury if....

Image
  Adapting is not a luxury if you want to keep succeeding at a high level.   Recognizing factual changes in an economy, market or industry is something we all must do. Then, with that knowledge we must look at what we are current doing and make updates/changes accordingly in order to keep the pace we want to be on. If things change and we do not, we still change, but at the control of outside and not inside.  Change does not mean (though it may in some cases) leaving some things fully behind. It may mean we do MORE of some things, less of others or a combination of both. The only MUST is to do something; doing nothing is becoming a passenger. We also do not change for the sake of change. We change to help us adapt effectively. Effectively is defined as getting us to the goal or destination that we set forth. We don't lower our goal/standards when things change; we ourselves rise up.  It's a choice every day and many times during the day as well to rise up. Others will choose t

Motivational Monday #258: Give Up

Image
  Just because something use to be a road block in the past does not mean it has to be now. YOU CAN DO IT! Give up on thinking that hard is impossible. Give up on believing that the idea or thing in your heart is not for you. Give up on allowing outside opinions the power to hold you down.  When you give up these things it allows you to PICK UP what you need to achieve the goals you have in your head and your heart. Potential is a great things, but it becomes truly beautiful when you embark on the journey towards achievement of it. On the journey you will have obstacles, don't give up. On this journey you will encounter people who will hinder you as well as people that enable you; mind that difference. On your journey you will also be inspiring others by your words and actions for them to Give up as well, so they can PICK UP & Go as you are.

Motivational Monday #240: Joy in the Journey, not just the Destination

Image
  Destinations (goals) are amazing. We set our sights high, push ourselves in pursuit of that goal, overcome obstacles, grow into the person we want to be & eventually achieve the goal we set out to accomplish; reaching the destination we had our sights set on. That is amazing! But...if we only celebrate and enjoy the final result we are robbing ourselves of a ton of joy through the other victories, bug & small, internal & external on our way.  Finding joy in the journey & not just in the destination created an internal fuel that keeps us motivated with verve on our pursuit. We won't always 'feel' like giving it our all each day, but when we have joy in the journey the feeling of joy pushes out the doubt & keeps us going. We cannot feel joy & doubt at the same time. Allow the joy to win & you will win in soo many incredible ways.
