Motivation 101

Important motivating thoughts to ponder.

You can make any dream you can think of a reality. It simply takes drive, perseverance, hard work and a belief in you.

You need to surround yourself with people who believe in you. You need clarity of mind. You need time to plan and coordinate what you envision. Do not let unnecessary things cloud your vision. Take the time to sit back and really access what you have learned in a day. Think about how all the conversations, the people in your life, etc. have helped to contribute or hinder your path; think of ways that you can make tomorrow an even more productive, happy day.

Write down your goals. Write down your values. Read books written by people you admire and aspire to be more like. Do not believe everything you read. Question the norm. Trust your instincts. Stop and smell the roses.

It is your life to do whatever you choose to with it. It is true that you cannot “take it with you when you die”. What matters most is how you lived your life. What matters most is if you can live with the person you are everyday.

What choices do you make everyday? How can you alter these choices to better you life? You will be surprised at how simple changes can make incredible differences in the betterment of your life.

For example, I remember in college I had a friend who would purchase a Starbucks mocha coffee every night. She used it to help keep her awake while she studied. After awhile, she could not understand why she was gaining so much weight. When she found out that the mocha coffee had 32 grams of fat, she was blown away! We realized that was like eating a couple of hamburgers a night! So try to be more discerning about everything in your life. Little changes can and will make significant positive changes for you.

If you want to lose weight you can. Start to listen and look toward the people who have successfully accomplished weight loss. Do not listen to the people struggling to lose weight, they don't know how to. The people who already have, know how to, learn from their wisdom. Same with any endeavor or task you want to accomplishment. Steer away from negative energy. You can do anything. You have always been able to. Just keep reminding yourself and others.

It is very important to lift others on your way up as well. When you help others, you help your self. We are social beings after all. We need each other. Everything you want is important so don't let anything stop you from your dreams.
