Be Present, Pay Attention and Be Ready to Act!

“Most moments in life don't matter much. But there are a few moments in every person's life that DO matter. So one of the greatest skills we can develop is the ability to recognize those few moments that really matter and take action. We need to stand up, pay attention and be ready to act.”

Think about that for a minute.  Most moments in life don't matter much...but there are a few moments in every person's life that DO matter.  Have you developed the skill to recognize those moments or do they just pass by...along with all the other moments that don't matter much?

Most people live their life on auto-pilot, just existing, doing enough to not get fired but not enough to stand apart from the herd.  Is that you?  Are you just existing?  Why??

You were created to bring something to the world and if you don't bring that something to the world, the world will NEVER see it.  Why?  because YOU were meant to bring it to the world!

Stop playing small and become who you were meant to be!

Be present, stand up, pay attention and be ready to act!

Know.  Be Known.  Make A Difference!

Experience All of Life

"Life is the art of drawing without an eraser."
~John W. Gardner

What are you trying to erase from your life? Why? We need to learn to experience ALL of life and not just the good times. Why? Because when you experience the bad times, it makes the good times that much sweeter. As silly as this sounds, I'm just re-learning this again.

There were certain things in my life that I tried to erase. But you really can't erase them, you just try to hide them so deep that they would never see the light of day. I tried to remember only the good but without the bad, the good didn't seem as good as I remember it. Why? Because I was taking the easy way out and not experiencing ALL of life. I thought that if I just remembered the good, everything would be alright...WRONG!!

The reason we haven't been given an eraser is that Life is a series of Moments. Live in the present moment and let go of the past. Let go any labels you've assigned to yourself or others and be present. Have fun and make this moment, your best moment.

One of my favorite quotes is "Wherever you are, BE THERE!" Learn from the past and let it go. Be in the moment, this moment. That is something worth striving for and remembering...
