Motivational Monday #284: Will you keep going in the face of ____________?

Go forward. 

Keep pushing, even through things that suck. It may not even be adversity, just something you don't enjoy. Sometimes we need to do that exact thing in order to reach the destination that we want, that we really want. 

Our excuses can destroy us if we let them, don't. Excuses may help us feel better temporarily, but it doesn't get us to our destination. Go forward in the face of ________ (fill in the blank for you). It may be a person, circumstance, something to learn,

whatever or whoever it may be; I encourage you to keep going. Temporary discomfort for where you want to be....is that a trade you are willing to make?

Motivational Monday #272: Are we insane & don't know it???

Image
  Have we been trying to achieve something new for some time now and haven't accomplished our goal or gotten closer to the finish line? If that is the case, lets do a check in on ourselves to make sure we are not practicing insanity and don't even know it.  Many times we set out to achieve new goals, feats or achievements, but we attempt to do so as we currently are. Large goals require dedication and change of some sort as well. That is an ingredient that we tend to be adverse to; CHANGE.  Change can be interchanged with growth though if that makes us feel better about it. Growth/Change is a required ingredient on the recipe for success. If you feel like you've been hitting a road block or two on the journey towards a goal or goals you have, I encourage you to step back and see if there is an area, characteristic or skill that is needing to be developed in order for you to get over the hump and achieve it.  If it's in your head & your heart it's there for a rea...

Motivational Monday #267: The Morning Routine

Image
  Today we will have many choices, many of which we don't even really think about, they are on auto-pilot for us. Most of us have a morning routine that we have done pretty similarly for a period of time. Our mornings tend to set the tone for the rest of our day; protect them. Look at your morning routine to see what ingredients are a part of it.  Are there some that should be increase or decreased? Are there some that should be removed or new ingredient added?  Below are a few evergreen ingredients that I believe are necessary in the recipe for a successful morning to set the tone for our day ahead.   H2O intake, before coffee :) Some stretching to get the blood flowing Listen or read a short bit of encouragement Make your bed Write down one thing you are grateful for

Motivational Monday #270: We don't have to be at 100% to win today!

Image
How many days do we feel at 100%? Definitely not 100% of the time. How many times are the circumstances around us perfect conditions? Rarely.  I say this to remind each of us if we are counting on perfect conditions externally & internally to win, then we will win rarely. You/we do not need prefect conditions to win. We don't need to be at 100% to win. We are better than that. We overcome obstacles internally & externally in the pursuit of victory. Others may need those circumstances to win, but not you, not us. We have the skills, training, team, mindset & more to win, at a high level regardless of circumstances.  Mix in creativity & determination (GRIT) & I know that each of us will taste the goals we have before us. Don't let whispers of doubt in.  Get it:)  today...tomorrow...going forward & be an encourager of the same to those around you. That is where incredible impact is made.
