Are you working for your gold watch? Many years ago that was a pinnacle of someone’s career. In today’s day and age, there is no known security for your future or that of your company. What if you decided to do what Steve Jobs did with Apple? Create your own future. There has never been a better time in known history for creating your life by design. In a world that celebrates celebrities, the reality is that each one of us can be a celebrity in our own world by being our best. There’s no competition for being you, other than your own mindset. With our world so connected, your gifts and talents can be shared globally in an instant. With that being said, in this life we do have a limited amount of time. With your time, will you create someone else’s future or your own? Will you spend your life comparing yourself to others or work on you? I recently made the decision to get out of a job I was in that had many parts in line with my gifts and talents, and that was creating a future. What I realized was that most of the time I was spending on areas that were not in line with my expertise which I allowed to take away from me being my best me. That’s not to say I couldn’t have adjusted and stayed with the job. I’m not blaming the job for my choices. It was not an easy decision and I don’t recommend leaving your job to everyone. For me, since I’ve made that decision it has provided more...

Where is your energy focused? Wherever that is you’ll get more of it. Consider the thought that your energy is a vibration or frequency that picks up whatever you’re putting down …so to speak. Whatever thoughts and emotions you decide to focus or keep your mind on, you’re going to get more of. We may not choose the thoughts or feelings that come in, however we can decide what to do with them. I challenge you to develop your mindset of “Bring it”. Know that whatever you’re giving your attention to, you will get more of and as you create your life, decide what you are going to bring. It truly is a decision. You want summa this? Whatever your “this” is you intend to have …BRING IT! …photo found at triumph-fit.com ~ I think I’ll work out...

I recently made the decision to give up a great job that I’d allowed to drain me. I’m not going to blame the job. I take full responsibility. Now that I’ve been out for a week, I can look back and see many things I could have done that would have produced a different, possibly more positive outcome. During my time at this job, I could see those things and still was not able to pull it all together to create the outcome that I believe is needed for that role. I decided it wasn’t for me. When I made the decision to let go, it was a gut decision. Although I’d gone over how I could make it better and definitely made the effort, in my heart I knew I wasn’t the best for the job. As I’m looking ahead to possibility, I definitely have my moments of doubt. Thoughts that I should have just stuck it out until my daughter graduated from college, or until we were in a much better place financially, along with many other feelings or should haves. I choose not to let those thoughts linger. I took a risk, and now I’m living with the consequences. I’ve seen some of the safest people get knocked sideways from circumstances beyond their control and I’ve seen hair-brained decisions made that turned out for the best. So what’s the lesson here? I’ve made the decision, right or wrong, to venture out into an unknown. In my heart I knew it was right, which doesn’t necessarily mean it was the best or that it was right. Only time and...

What if you could direct every day and truly create your best life? Do you believe that’s possible? Do you know anyone that is currently doing that? Are you currently doing that? I believe you are, to the best of your ability. Do you know anyone that gets up every day and consciously decides not to have their best life? It may look like it. I believe they may just not be aware that it could be different or have given up on a greater purpose or have never decided to have one. With so many distractions pulling us all in a gazillion directions, one of the greatest challenges of our time, and also the greatest opportunity, may be to truly become our best selves. How can you best give of yourself to provide the most value to others and truly be fulfilled? In our age of the internet and instant access to almost everything, we get the opportunity to add value just by putting something out there for millions to see. We also can so easily be pulled into everyone else’s life while unconsciously ignoring our own. I want to challenge you to live out your best ‘what if…’ today. You do get to direct today, although you may not currently feel like you are in control of all of it. You can develop your ability to direct your mind and how you think about your day. This is a skill and a practice. How do you start your day? One of the best, if not the best books on the subject of starting your day is The...

The beauty of that question is that whatever it is you are seeking, you will get answers for. When you decide to show up, you’ll get what you intend to get. If the cause of the Youth Suicide Prevention Program is something that resonates with you, you’ll get value no matter what, because you are contributing. I love what Kyle Cease states so well, made popular in the movie Adaption, and lyrics in a Fall Out Boys tune with Elton John, “You Are What You Love, Not What Loves You.” I’m not really sure where it originated, but it speaks to me in a world looking for validation and the need to be right. You have all it takes to be in this moment what you were designed to be. When you focus on what you love, there’s no room for worrying about what loves you, or if you’re accepted, making the right decisions, failing, etc. Join thought leaders as they share what they love, their perspective on being successful in the moment and living on purpose. The theme for the day is from Danny Win’s Super Shooz series that includes a song for each step in between each speaker. You won’t leave the same. ONE thought can change the trajectory of your life. Are you curious enough to join us? May 7th is your day. Sign up now: #ThatCuriosityThing.com...
