Rewrite All The Rules!

“What’s the most resilient parasite? An idea. A single idea from the human mind can build cities. An idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules.” ~From Inception the movie

What is your most resilient parasite? What idea can you just not get away from? What idea dominates your thinking? And what have you done about it? Nothing? Why???

Nothing has ever been created without first a thought. That is where everything starts. What thoughts are you letting dominate your thinking? Thoughts of lack? Thoughts of fear? Thoughts of negativity? Or thoughts of abundance, thoughts of action and thoughts of positivity?

See, we get to decide what we think about. No one else can make us think about anything unless we allow it in. Have a negative friend? Don't hang with them! Have a family member that's always talking you down? Distance yourself. It's you choice as to who to hang with...choose wisely!

Action:
Today, choose wisely what to let into your thinking. What resilient parasite you want crawling around your brain. It is, after all, your choice!

Know. Be Known. Make A Difference!

As Great As Your Dominant Aspiration

"Whatever your present environment may be, you will remain, fall or rise with your thoughts, your Vision, your Ideal. You will become as small as your controlling desire; as great as your dominant aspiration." ~ James Allen

You will remain, fall or rise with you thoughts. Wow! Think about that! You get to decide to remain, fall or rise, all based on what you think. I know that you know this...but do you believe it and know it without a doubt? Sometimes that's the hard part, we know it intellectually, but can't make it a part of our consciousness.

You will become as small as your controlling desire. What is your controlling desire. Does it really benefit you? Does it allow for your greatness to be seen? Or is it holding you from your greatness?

You will be as great as your dominant aspiration! What's your dominant aspiration? Is it life changing? Is it world changing? Is it something that drives you every day or just something you pull out when people ask you what it is?

It is your choice! You will become as small as your controlling desire or as great as your dominant aspiration. Choose wisely.

First A Dream


"Nothing is as real as a dream. The world can change around you, but your dream will not. Responsibilities need not erase it. Duties need not obscure it. Because the dream is within you, no one can take it away."~Stephen King

Do you realize that nothing is as real as a dream? Most people can't understand that. Your dreams can be as real as you want them to be, but unfortunately, most people choose to leave their dreams in lala land and never take any action toward making the dream happen.  Why is that?  Is because of fear?  Is it because if you go after your dream and fall short you will be disappointed?  Marianne Williamson said, "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us…"

Your world can change around you, but your dream remains. Responsibilities can't take your dreams away, only you can take your dreams away. Your dream is within YOU. You are the chief caretaker of your dreams.  Carl Sandburg said "Nothing happens unless first a dream." The dream comes first.  What are you doing with your dreams?  Are you keeping them safe, in your head or are you taking a chance with your dreams, taking action, taking your dream from your head and bringing it in to your reality?

This is your choice. You get to choose. No one else has a say in it. Choose wisely.

Effective Use Of Your Time?

"Think highly enough of yourself to make wise and effective use of this day. Remember that every moment you fill is your own, precious, irreplaceable time."~Ralph Marston

Are you making wise and effective use of your time? Today? If not, then you don't think highly enough about yourself. You get to choose. Taking action or procrastination. Making wise and effective use of the day or wasting the day.

Every moment is yours to fill. It's your choice what to do with it. No one else can make you do anything that you don't want to. It comes back to your choice of thinking highly enough about yourself or not. Do you think highly enough about yourself or are you allowing others to dictate your time? Don't let them, it's your choice.

John Randolph said "Time is at once the most valuable and the most perishable of all our possessions." How true that is. Think about that. We own 24 hours a day. Are you spending it or wasting it? Think about how easy it is to blow 15 minutes every couple of hours. It could add up to 3 or 4 hours a day that we fritter away and lose forever. Do you value time as your most valuable possession? Most people don't.

Action:
Start making wise and effective use of your time...TODAY!! It's your choice to use your time in the way you see as best. Make sure that you are choosing well. Start treating time as your greatest possession!

Motivation...To Expand Your Mind

“One very important aspect of motivation is the willingness to stop and to look at things that no one else has bothered to look at. This simple process of focusing on things that are normally taken for granted is a powerful source of creativity.” ~Edward de Bono

How willing are you at looking at things that no one else has bothered to look at? Are you willing to ask the question why do we do this that way? I hope so because it leads to the expansion of your mind and ideas. Think about that...the expansion of your mind. Are you willing to expand your mind or are you set in your ways and you "already know how to do that?"

Einstein said “The significant problems we face cannot be solved at the same level of thinking we were at when we created them.” Yet every day, we try to solve the problems that come our way without changing the level of thinking that created them. Are you guilty of this? I know that I am sometimes, but most of the time, I will try to add to my knowledge to deal with the problem that I created. Books, articles and mentors help.

Action:
Motivation...Every action, positive and negative comes from our motivation. Choose wisely, make that motivation a positive one. ASK! Always Seek Knowledge. Expand your mind daily!

The Reality of Your Dream

"Nothing is as real as a dream. The world can change around you, but your dream will not. Responsibilities need not erase it. Duties need not obscure it. Because the dream is within you, no one can take it away." ~ Tom Clancy

How real is your dream? Do you allow yourself to dream or do you put it on the back burner so that you can deal with your responsibilities? Are you more concerned with your duties than your dream? Now, don't get me wrong, your duties are important, but not as important as your dream!

Only you can take your dream away from you. No one else can. Do you realize that or have you let others take your dream away? I sure hope not, but if you have, you can reclaim your dream right now. Just do it! Right now! Your dream is your choice. Make sure that you choose well.

Action:
Take one step toward your dream today. That's all it takes, is one step a day. Soon you will so close to your dream that you will be able to touch it and feel it!

How Do You Define Yourself?

"To a very large extent men and women are a product of how they define themselves. We come to have beliefs about the nature of being human. These beliefs penetrate to a very deep level of our psychosomatic systems, our minds and brains. We act, speak, and think according to these deeply held beliefs and belief systems." ~ Jeremy W. Hayward

How do you define yourself? A winner? A loser? A break-evener? Lucky? Unlucky? What other words do you use? Well, what ever words you use, you are a product of those words and how you define yourself. Think about the words that you use...are they uplifting or do they bring you down? Do they say what is right about what's going on or do they find the negative?

When was the last time you thought about the words that you say to and about yourself? Make sure that they aren't bringing you down. It's your choice to decide how to talk to yourself. Choose wisely.

Action:
Stop yourself when you start down the negative Nancy path. Choose to think only positive things about yourself and what you do. It is YOUR choice.
