If I Had More Time…
I’m sure you’ve heard it.
I’m sure you’ve thought it.
If I only had more time!
“The bad news is, time flies. The good news is, you’re the pilot!” - Michael Altshuler
That’s right, you’re the pilot of your own journey.
That is good news.
Created For A Purpose
You were Created for a Purpose!
You Matter and your life was designed for you, uniquely.
“You were created for something Awesome” - G.R. Smith
Some people find it difficult to define Why they are here.
Unfortunately, you cannot implement a Purpose you cannot define.
So how do you find it?
What Does It Take To Be Extraordinary?
Sometimes going against conventional wisdom is what it takes to create or do something extraordinary.
But are you willing to take the risk?
“If you want to do something extraordinary, there’s always risk involved” - Felix Baumgartner
When you are willing to step out, amazing things become possible.
Feeling Stuck
Feeling Stuck?
Where do you go from here?
Often people talk about how they feel 'stuck' in a situation. You're never stuck! You may be a little frustrated, you may not have clear answers, but you're not stuck. The minute you represent the situation to yourself as being stuck, though, that's exactly how you'll feel. We must be very careful about the metaphors we allow ourselves to use. - Tony Robbins
Words mean things, and how you talk to yourself matters, so choose wisely.
Remember, life may happen, but you always get to choose!
Is It Really Failure?
Is it really a failure if you don’t accomplish something you set out to do?
My friend and co-host D. Scott Smith and I have differing opinions on this, but really come to the same conclusion in the end. It is what you do after you fail that really matters.
What is your perspective when you stumble and fall?
Finding Joy in Struggles
Can you truly find Joy even through struggle and life challenges?
Yes!
Joy is something bigger than you and what you are going through.
Many find Joy in faith or in God! This is where I truly find my Joy!
But even Joy from God does not take away all the challenges in life.
“Joy is not necessarily the absence of suffering, it is the presence of God.” – Sam Storms
How To Live Your BEST Life Now!
Do you really want to know how to live your Best Life Now?
It starts with choices you make every day.
Trusting something bigger than yourself.
“To live your best life now, you must learn to trust God’s timing. You may not think He’s working, but you can be sure that right now, behind the scenes, God is arranging all the pieces to come together to work out His plan for your life.” - Joel Osteen
Be Present! Enjoy Life Now!
“Be grateful for life… not everyone made it this far.” - Unknown
Think about that statement. Look at all the good things you have done to make it to now. That alone should bring you some fulfillment and joy!
If you step back and widen your perspective, life is better than you thought.
When you’re present and focus on Enjoying Life Now, it is amazing how much more joy you will feel.
You will be much more Positive!
And much more Grateful!
Perspective and Performance
“Life is about Perspective and how you look at something… ultimately, you have to zoom out.” – Whitney Wolfe Herd
How you look at your life determines so much and you have to be careful not to get fixated on one situation or one challenge.
You have to zoom out and look at the bigger picture.
The Perspective you have drives your actions and your ultimate performance.
Environment Can Be A Difference Maker
Make a conscious effort to surround yourself with Positive, Uplifting, and Nourishing People – people who believe in you, encourage you to go after your dreams, and applaud your victories.” - Jack Canfield
The people you are around and the environment you choose to place yourself in, can make all the difference in how you perform, how joyful and positive you are, and how successful you become.
People that are surrounded by positive people are usually more effective than people that are surrounded by negative people.
This is why high performers normally spend more time with positive people!
It Takes Commitment and Consistency
“The quality of a person’s life is in direct proportion to their commitment to excellence, regardless of their chosen field of endeavor. - Vince Lombardi
A quality life depends on Commitment and Consistency!
Whatever you do; Whatever your goals and aspirations are; you have to commit and give a consistent effort.
