EVERYTHING I HAVE. That is what it is going to take. (Motivational Speech) – Fearless Motivation – WATCH:

LYRICS: EVERYTHING I HAVE. (That is what it is going to take) Speech

There’s a quote I heard that sums it up perfectly:

“If you run from the WORK you may as well hide from the MONEY too”

MONEY. SUCCESS. PROGRESS. None of it comes without WORK.

Repeat after me:
I have what it takes but it’s going to take EVERYTHING I HAVE.

I have what it takes but it’s going to take EVERYTHING I HAVE.

Whatever you WANT is on the other side of WORK!

EVERYTHING YOU HAVE… that’s what it is going to take!

These days most people aren’t willing to put in even HALF of what they have… EVERYTHING? What’s that? Most people will never know.

Most people will never know the feeling of EARNING something GREAT. Most people will never know that feeling of deep PRIDE. KNOWING you are SELF-MADE.

Are you different? Are you different to most people?

MONEY. SUCCESS. PROGRESS… none of it comes without WORK.

If you can get to that place… if you can become that person that is willing to do ANYTHING to get the life you want… I promise you ANYTHING you want you can have.

You have to be willing to EARN the life you want. It’s the only way you are going to get it.

You have to level up MENTALLY before you can level up FINANCIALLY.

This life is like a video game… if you want to get to the NEXT LEVEL you need to LEVEL UP YOURSELF. You need to level up your knowledge… your skills… your confidence… your EXPECTATIONS…

In other words: If YOU want better YOU MUST GET BETTER. Everyone tries to skip that part. They just want the success… the money… the rewards… but the work… they run from that. The struggle… they quit when that shows up.

DO THE WORK! PUSH THROUGH THE STRUGGLE! Then you will get your rewards.

Struggle makes you STRONGER. You might not like it in the moment. You don’t have to. PUSH THROUGH IT.

No energy?
FIND SOME.
PUSH THROUGH IT.
NO EXCUSES!
Can’t see a way out?
DO SOMETHING.
BUILD SOME MOMENTUM.
NO EXCUSES!
No one believes in you?
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!
Do SOMETHING that builds your belief!
NO EXCUSES!

You CAN DO THIS! But it will take EVERYTHING you HAVE!

EVERYTHING YOU HAVE. That is what it is going to take.

Are you prepared to give EVERYTHING you have?

Rest In Peace (Motivational Speech) Fearless Motivation – WATCH FREE:

TRANSCRIPT: Rest In Peace (Motivational Speech)

Rest in peace… all the dreams never realized… all the businesses never started… the POTENTIAL never reached.


Rest in peace…
 all the opportunities missed because you chose to go out and party instead of stay in and study.

Rest in peace…
 the person you could have been… but never reached, because you refused to put in the work.


Rest in peace…
 the life that could have been yours… but wasn’t, because you lacked BELIEF… and cared more about the potential FAILURE than the possibility of SUCCESS.

It’s sad. So sad. But this is the REALITY for most people.
 Most people let their DREAMS DIE.


Most people would rather live a life of misery and regret than take a RISK pushing for what they REALLY WANT.

Most people settle… in every area of their life.
 They settle in their relationships. They settle for an OK body. OK health. They settle for an income that’s just enough to get by. They settle for a quality of life that is only just passable enough to sleep at night… not so bad that they have to do something about it… but not even close to the life they deserve AND ARE CAPABLE of living.


This life is short! None of us are going to make it out of here alive. YOU. ME. Everyone we love. We’re all going to leave this earth one day.
 We’ve got one shot at it. ONE SHOT.

For many of us, that time is flying by.

Why not MAKE THE MOST of our one shot?
Why not put in that little more effort?
WHY NOT dream just a little BIGGER.
WHY NOT spend more time asking yourself WHAT YOU REALLY WANT in 1, 5, 10, 20 years time?


WHY NOT spend more time working on yourself, and less time trying to ESCAPE from a life you don’t want!

WHY NOT WALK AWAY from everything that is rotten in your life… and start planting NEW SEEDS that can GROW into something better in time.


You deserve more… but you can only GET MORE if you are willing to DO MORE.
MORE planning.
MORE SELF WORK.
More SACRIFICE.
MORE calculated risks.
MORE dreaming.
MORE learning.
MORE BELIEVING.
MORE of everything that takes you in the direction you want to travel, and LESS of everything that is pulling you in the opposite direction.

Push for your TRUE POTENTIAL. And when you get to the end, you’ll be proud, proud of the person you became while searching and stretching for the greatest version of yourself.

There’s a famous story about frogs and boiling water I have to share with you, because I think it is relevant to ALL OF US.
As the story goes, if you place a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will immediately jump out to save its life… but, if you put the same frog in a pot of room-temperature water and slowly heat it up, the frog will remain in the pot… even when the water starts BOILING. The frog will stay there and ultimately boil to death.

Now, you may be thinking that frogs are stupid… but don’t we all do that to some degree?
You spend too long in a relationship, in a business, in a job, in a friendship…. At the start it was good… then slowly over time it started dying. You should have jumped out or made changes a long time ago… now you’re dying inside like the frog.
Too often we get stuck in our comfortable lives… it becomes so comfortable and so familiar that, even though we may be miserable, we stay, because at least the misery is familiar… Taking that risk to CHANGE or GROW or LEAVE is UNKNOWN… and if there’s one thing most humans can’t face it is the UNKNOWN…

But, let me ask you:
Do you want to be like that frog in the pot, slowly boiling to death? Or would you rather be like the MINORITY? Jump out of that POT and go searching for a life that will CHALLENGE you and force you to GROW into a person you can be proud of.

I challenge you to be the latter. Don’t wait for someone else to turn down the heat for you. There’s no-one else in control of the temperature of your life.

Take control of your own life and be brave enough to make those positive changes. Embrace every challenge you face and seek out new opportunities for growth and development.

Progress requires discomfort. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and try something new. It will be uncomfortable at first, but that discomfort is a sign of PENDING PROGRESS.

If you want to be a BETTER version of yourself you must PUSH YOURSELF to grow. You must make some tough decisions and TRUST your gut that everything will work out in the end.

So, don’t be that frog. Don’t be someone who stays somewhere that is killing them inside. Don’t be like most people, who let their DREAMS and ASPIRATIONS DIE far too early. Don’t live with that dirty word: REGRET.

There is no greater pain than that of regret.

Nothing can kill your soul more than the feeling of regret. Never be afraid to take a risk in life. Never be afraid to take a risk going after what YOU really want.

You may fail, you will most likely fail often. 
 But failure going after your dreams is NOTHING compared to the failure that is settling for a life you don’t want.

It’s never too late to try again! It’s never too late to DECIDE you want more out of life. It’s NEVER TOO LATE!

It’s never too late to commit to make this day, THIS VERY DAY, the BEST of your life! To create opportunities for yourself. To be positive. To RISE above average thoughts.

It’s NEVER TOO LATE to re invent yourself.
 To learn something new. To grow. To feel good again.

No matter what has happened or failed to happen in your past: IT IS NEVER TOO LATE. 
 But only if you are committed. Only if YOU want to change. Do you want to change? Do you want more out of life?

You wouldn’t be the first person on earth to turn everything around. It is NOT impossible. All it takes is your commitment, your COURAGE and your DESIRE to be better.

Most people don’t change because they lack courage… because they FEAR the unknown. They FEAR failure. YOU are DIFFERENT. YOU have the courage. 
 The courage to try.

Don’t fear failure. FEAR being in the exactly same place next year as you are today.

IT’S TIME! TODAY is the day! The first day of the rest of your life! Make that commitment.

NEVER GIVE UP. Can you hear me? I don’t care if you’re living in your car. I don’t care if you’re sleeping on the side of a gas station.

NEVER GIVE UP! You gotta KEEP FIGHTING.

It’s that destination that you have in your SOUL. It’s where you want to make it.

See, your tears, will become the ocean, that leads to your paradise.

The toughest battles come to the toughest warriors.

You gotta see it, like it’s already in your hand.
 You gotta walk, like you’re already a star. Even, if you have nothing in your pocket.

But you can NEVER GIVE UP You can never stop fighting for that TOP SPOT.

See, you’ve got to become rich on the inside, before you can become rich on the outside.
 That PRIDE. That PURPOSE. That GIFT. NEVER GIVE UP!

Raise Your Standards (Motivational Speech) Fearless Motivation – WATCH FREE:

LYRICS: Raise Your Standards (Motivational Speech) Fearless Motivation

I want to tell you a secret: 

There’s only one thing keeping you from WHERE YOU ARE and WHERE YOU WANT TO BE.

There’s only EVER one thing keeping ANYONE from where they ARE in life and the LIFE THEY REALLY WANT.

 That thing, is called your STANDARDS.

If you don’t like where you are:
 RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you’re not happy with your income: RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you’re not happy with your relationships: RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you don’t like your body: 
RAISE YOUR STANDARDS!

What’s the main difference between the people who are in good shape and the people who are not? STANDARDS.



Most of us have access to the same information. Most of us know HOW to get in shape. But most of us ARE NOT in good shape. Why? 
STANDARDS.

Very few of us have high standards when it comes to nutrition and exercise.

The main difference between the person earning millions and the one who is broke: STANDARDS!

The main difference between the happy and the sad… The joyful and the depressed? STANDARDS.

Standards define everything. 

Wherever you are in life, in every area, is a result of your standards in that area.


What are you willing to ACCEPT?

In the dictionary ‘standards’ are defined as: “a level of quality or attainment’. 

Meaning: whatever LEVEL of QUALITY you demand from your life is what you will GET IN YOUR LIFE!

Whatever you place IMPORTANCE on… Whatever you make a PRIORITY in your life…you will make STRONGER in your life!

What is your priority right now?

For most people there is only one priority – getting through the day. So that’s what they do.  They ONLY get through the day.

For those who have high standards for their physical health – they prioritize exercise and healthy eating – so that’s what they do… and in time you can see the rewards of that.



Some people are happy with minimum wage… some people won’t get out of bed for less than $200,000 a year… and some people won’t do anything, for any amount of money unless that work is meaningful to them.
 STANDARDS.


What about you?


What level of financial success do you accept?

It has been said that a strong person isn’t strong from a strong attitude, but from strong STANDARDS.

The standards you set can make YOU STRONGER or WEAKER. 

LOW QUALITY STANDARDS = A LOW QUALITY LIFE. 

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?



RAISE YOUR STANDARDS!

If you don’t have high standards you will eat the donut, you will hit snooze on the alarm, you’ll say yes to the night out drinking… and you’ll pay for all of that later.

WHEN YOU HAVE HIGH STANDARDS you don’t have a problem saying NO!



WHEN YOU HAVE HIGH STANDARDS you don’t need to fit in with the crowd. You are focused on ONE THING, and that is your GOAL.
 Nothing will break your focus.
 Nothing will distract you from your goal.

No shiny objects will take your attention away from what is important to you.

Never apologise for having high standards. 
DO NOT LOWER your standards for anyone.
 You must respect yourself enough to stand for what you want in life. In every area.

If you don’t like where you are: 
RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you’re not happy with your income: RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you’re not happy with your relationships: RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
If you don’t like your body: 
RAISE YOUR STANDARDS!

Why do most people adopt low standards in their life? 

Well, what happens when you raise your standards and no longer accept the quality of life of your peer group?
 You start losing friends real quick.

 Because most people are comfortable living a LOW STANDARD KIND OF LIFE.

It’s EASY living without standards. Life is much harder when you DEMAND more of yourself.



Most people don’t want to take the risk going after a better life. 
‘What if I fail?’
 Well, the only real failure is accepting a life LESS than that you are truly capable of.

If you are CONTENT with life as it is, congratulations. I admire and respect you.

 But, if you want MORE… if you want to see who you can truly be in life… how much you can really DO… how many people you can truly IMPACT… you must DEMAND MORE OF YOURSELF…



You MUST RAISE YOUR STANDARDS.
 You must set BIGGER GOALS. 
You MUST FOCUS. 
You must set your MIND, EVERY SINGLE DAY on something so powerful, so meaningful to you that you would rather DIE than see it unfulfilled.

RAISE YOUR STANDARDS!

You have to get to the point where you’ve had enough!
You have to say I AM SICK OF THIS!
I’m tired of being average!!!
I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired!!!
I’ve had enough of struggling!
I’m done with depression!
I’m finished with unhappiness
!

I AM DONE with everything that is less than the greatness I DESERVE!

You have to get ANGRY about your situation!
It’s only when you get to that point that you can move forward with your life!

If you’re OK with your average life, you’ll never have more than an average life!

GET MAD! 
GET MAD EVERY TIME YOU SLIP UP, SO YOU GET RIGHT BACK ON TRACK!

RAISE THE BAR so HIGH that no-one understands you. HAVE STANDARDS SO UNBREAKABLE they all think you are INSANE.

And then wait for them to ASK HOW YOU DID IT. Because you are going to do it!

If you keep raising your standards…
If you keep raising the bar in your life… If you continue to EXPECT MORE OF YOURSELF…
AND PUT IN THE WORK TO ATTAIN IT… It’s only a matter of time.
 You will get it.

KEEP GOING!

SUCCESS AND GOALS



“People with goals succeed because they know where they’re going.”
- Earl Nightingale



“All you have to do is know where you’re going. The answers will come to you of their own accord.”
- Earl Nightingale



”Success is the progressive realization of a worthy goal.”
- Earl Nightingale

Most people to achieve any great success in their life, not through lack of wanting, but through lack goals.

Without clear direction, you will end up in the wrong section.

 Without a clear target to hit, you will miss the mark every time.

 YOUR GOALS are your TARGET. They give you something MEANINGFUL to aim for in life.

Having meaningful goals gives your life the challenge it needs, it gives you something to wake up for, something to chase, and when you succeed, something to be proud of. 

That’s why people with goals succeed, because they know where they are going… and when they get there, they can be proud as they know they EARNED their place with deliberate intention.





COURAGE





“We are all self-made, but only the successful will admit it.”
- Earl Nightingale



“People are where they are because that is exactly where they really want to be – whether they will admit that or not.”
- Earl Nightingale



“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice… it is conformity.”
- Earl Nightingale

We are products of our own choices. 

We all stand where we are in life, as a result of the consistent choices we have made.

Circumstances only define you if you let them. Those who succeed in life choose to accept responsibility for where they are, even if that place is not somewhere they want to stay. 

Especially if that place is not somewhere they want to stay.

You are where you are because of your decisions. If you don’t like where you are you must take better actions!

Everyone is self made. But only those who like where they are will admit it.

If you’re strong enough to stand where you don’t want to be, and admit that you are self made… that is the first step to freedom. The first step towards your new life. A life you’ll be proud to call SELF MADE.





PROBLEMS





“Problems are challenges to creative minds. Without problems, there would be little reason to think at all.”
- Earl Nightingale

Don’t call them problems, call them challenges and find solutions.

 Words are important. The meaning you give to life is important. Those who see only problems will always have them. Those who see challenges and are ready to face them, will likely OVERCOME THEM.





FEAR




“Don’t let the fear of the time it will take to accomplish something stand in the way of your doing it. The time will pass anyway; we might just as well put that passing time to the best possible use.”
- Earl Nightingale

“Whenever we’re afraid, it’s because we don’t know enough. If we understood enough, we would never be afraid.”
- Earl Nightingale

Fear can either paralyze you or MOVE YOU. 

Most people talk themselves out of chasing their dreams. The fear of losing and false beliefs about time get in the way of their goals.

But, for most people, if they look back 5 years, or 10 years from today, there are surely many things they WISH they would have done. Dreams never started. GOALS never completed. 

Don’t let that be you in 5 years, 10 or 20 years from now. 

Ask what you want from your life in 5, 10, 20 years, and commit to take all the needed steps to make that life your reality.

SUBCONSCIOUS




“Everything begins with an idea.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Whatever we plant in our subconscious mind and nourish with repetition and emotion will one day become a reality.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Our attitude toward life determines life’s attitude towards us” 
- Earl Nightingale



“You are now, and you do become, what you think about.” 
- Earl Nightingale



“Your world is a living expression of how you are using and have used your mind.”
- Earl Nightingale



“The mind moves in the direction of our currently dominant thoughts.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you’ll be doing when you’ve reached your goal.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Everything that’s really worthwhile in life comes to us.”
- Earl Nightingale

The meaning behind the proverb “You must reap MORE than you sow” is that future RESULTS are undoubtedly shaped by present actions. 

More than that, FUTURE RESULTS are absolutely shaped by PRESENT ACTIONS and PRESENT BELIEFS.

If your convictions are bleak… If you believe that you are destined to be broke and miserable, your subconscious mind will help you out by finding circumstances to back up your convictions, and you will inevitably end up broke and miserable.

On the other hand – if you plant strong seeds in your mind, seeds of faith, belief and strength… if you truly believe that you will succeed – your mind will get to work and find circumstances and resources to aid you in becoming successful.

 Opportunities will arise. New paths will appear. You will still have to do the work – but when you truly believe and see yourself in your minds eye as achieving what you want in life… solutions will become available to you.




MAKE IT HAPPEN




“We can let circumstances rule us, or we can take charge and rule our lives from within.” 
- Earl Nightingale



“We tend to live up to our expectations.” – Earl Nightingale

If there is one thing we can all be certain of, it is this: Life tests us all. 

Within those tests some RISE ABOVE and unfortunately most HIDE BELOW.

You can either let life run all over you, or you can stand up to life, face your challenges and EARN the PRIDE that comes when you overcome the toughest times in your life.

Challenges equal GROWTH to those who face them head on and GROWTH is one more step on the ladder to SUCCESS and MEANING in life.

PLAN




“All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Your problem is to bridge the gap which exists between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.”
- Earl Nightingale



Without a plan you will perish.
As the saying goes “If you don’t plan to succeed, you are planning to fail”.

Wherever you are right now in life – if there is an area you must improve and you have these two things – you CAN AND WILL IMPROVE in that area.

The first is a CLEAR PLAN. A detailed, precise plan of action that could take you from where you ARE to where you MUST BE.
What actions need to be taken?
What’s it going to cost you?
What’s it going to COST in time, in relationships, financially?

The second thing you must have after a solid plan is the DESIRE to see the plan through to the end – NO MATTER WHAT. With those 2 things firmly in place, there are no limits to how great a transformation you could make in your life.



HAPPINESS



“Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don’t wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it’s at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.”
- Earl Nightingale



“We are at our very best, and we are happiest, when we are fully engaged in work we enjoy on the journey toward the goal we’ve established for ourselves. It gives meaning to our time off and comfort to our sleep. It makes everything else in life so wonderful, so worthwhile.”
- Earl Nightingale

Happiness doesn’t come from things. It doesn’t come from money, or success, or buying things, or having thousands of followers on social media. 

Real happiness can only ever come from MEANING. 

MEANING is something you create in your life through MEANINGFUL pursuits. The goals you are working towards. The intention you have to serve others.

Every moment you spend in the present moment can be meaningful if that is your intention.





ATTITUDE



“A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds; it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow absent before the change.”
- Earl Nightingale



“We all walk in the dark and each of us must learn to turn on his or her own light.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Our attitude towards others determines their attitude towards us.”
- Earl Nightingale



It seems pretty obvious that a positive attitude leads, mostly to positive outcomes and positive interactions. A negative attitude seems to attract mostly negative outcomes and negative interactions with others.

Cultivating a positive attitude starts first with INTENTION.

 You set the INTENTION for the kind of person you wish to become, and that is reflected in both the GOALS you are working towards in your life and the DAILY ROUTINE you have.

 Things like GRATITUDE and MEDITATION and AFFIRMATIONS are all things you could be doing every day that develop a positive attitude.

OPPORTUNITY AND RISK



“Wherever there is danger, there lurks opportunity; whenever there is opportunity, there lurks danger. The two are inseparable. They go together.

You can measure opportunity with the same yardstick that measures the risk involved. They go together.”
- Earl Nightingale

Opportunity is around every corner but there aren’t many people willing to turn that corner because RISK also lives there.

 But ask yourself what is more RISKY:
- Taking the risk to chase your dream or goal, and possibly failing, or;
- NEVER TRYING and forever living in REGRET?

You see, even if you fail once, twice or 100 times while chasing your dreams – you LEARN the lessons and become WISER and STRONGER for having taken that risk. 

The character you develop along the way is priceless.

I’ve yet to meet a person who refused to give up on their dream that hasn’t CAUGHT IT. 

Failure is inevitable. There’s not a single successful person who is alive or dead that never failed.

 One thing they would never do though is let an opportunity pass them by… no matter the risk.






ABUNDANCE



”No man can get rich himself unless he enriches others.”
- Earl Nightingale



“Don’t concern yourself with the money. Be of service … build … work … dream … create! 
Do this and you’ll find there is no limit to the prosperity and abundance that will come to you.”
- Earl Nightingale

Wealth, abundance, happiness – all of it – can not come to any person who is obsessed only with GAIN and GREED.

 These things come as a result of service.

What can you create that will benefit others?

 How can you best serve the world?

 Ask yourself these questions and you will be one step closer to true abundance, in every sense of the word.

Transcript: Wayne Dyer Life Changing Quotes

“The state of your life is nothing more than a reflection of the state of your mind.” – Wayne Dyer

“If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” – Wayne Dyer

No matter what circumstances have shown up in your life… the quality of your life will always and only be a reflection of your state of mind.

In other words, how you FEEL about your life… IS YOUR LIFE.

That is the very reason we have people who have nothing materially speaking who are miserable… and others who live in a consistent beautiful state. The same reason we have people who seemingly have it all, the money, the cars, the wealth – but are depressed – and others who have it all and feel blessed.

How you FEEL – IS YOUR LIFE.
 
 You can be happy with little or miserable with a lot. You can feel like you have A LOT with a little and feel like you have nothing with A LOT.

Spending time, every day in gratitude can shift your entire life. Spending time deliberately thinking about all the things that ARE GOOD in your life will not only make you feel better about your life (which is the ONLY important thing) but it will also start attracting more better things into your life. You could call this the law of attraction, but it is really just you NOTICING the good around you more.

Try it, there is literally NOTHING more important than you giving this gift to yourself. What could be more important than feeling good?

“I cannot always control what goes on outside. But I can always control what goes on inside.” – Wayne Dyer

As a human being you can guarantee one thing for sure:
 Life will serve you up a great variety of highs and lows.

Even though we are all guaranteed highs and lows, very few of us realize that we have the power to control what those highs and lows MEAN TO US.

We can not control the circumstances and events of our lives… but we can ALWAYS control our response to them.

We can always control how we choose to FEEL about the circumstances and events.

That doesn’t mean it will be easy. It doesn’t mean we won’t have to take action. Sometimes action will be needed to better a negative situation, but we need not carry negative energy about the situation.

The clearer our mind in challenging situations, the better our response.
 Next time you are faced with a challenge, see if you can gain more control of your feelings in order to handle the situation in the best possible way.

“Our lives are a sum total of the choices we have made.” – Wayne Dyer

“With everything that has happened to you, you can either feel sorry for yourself or treat what has happened as a gift. Everything is either an opportunity to grow or an obstacle to keep you from growing. You get to choose.” – Wayne Dyer

“Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it’s always your choice.” – Wayne Dyer

“You are not stuck where you are unless you decide to be.” – Wayne Dyer

The results of people’s lives are rarely ever an accident or a mistake. Almost always, regardless of the circumstances, it is less about luck, and more about the choices people have made.

Your responses, actions and choices have led you where you are today.

That might be hard to hear, especially if you feel you’ve been dealt a bad hand, but no matter where you are now, you can CHOOSE to be in a better position in the future.

You can choose to make excuses, and you might have some great ones, or you can choose to drop all the negative stories and FOCUS on what YOU CAN DO to make your situation better.

Regardless of what has happened in the past YOU DECIDE what happens next.

Holding on to negative feelings toward circumstances and people that have done you wrong does NOTHING to benefit YOUR LIFE.

They say the best revenge is massive success… but really it is not, there is no need for revenge, and the best thing you can do is LET GO of negativity and FOCUS on creating the best life possible for yourself, that is how you win.

“Stop acting as if life is a rehearsal. Live this day as if it were your last. The past is over and gone. The future is not guaranteed.” – Wayne Dyer

“Go for it now. The future is promised to no one.” – Wayne Dyer

Too many people put the really important things in their life off for another day.

We work too much and play too little. We spend too much time worrying about what other people think about us, and too little time being our true self, living free from anyones opinion.

They say no one on their death bed wished they worked more at the office, and I doubt they wished they worried more about what other people think of them.

Whoever you want to be – however you want to live – whatever you want to do – whatever you need to SAY – do it all, now, before it is too late.

Live with no regrets.

WAYNE DYER ON SELF WORTH

“Self-worth comes from one thing – thinking that you are worthy.” – Wayne Dyer

“You cannot be lonely if you like the person you’re alone with.” – Wayne Dyer

“The essential lesson I’ve learned in life is to just be yourself. Treasure the magnificent being that you are and recognize first and foremost you’re not here as a human being only. You’re a spiritual being having a human experience.” – Wayne Dyer

“When you’re just like everybody else, you’ve nothing to offer other than your conformity.” – Wayne Dyer

Be yourself. It’s that simple. Because you can have a FULL LIFE if you are not fully yourself.

If you are hiding who you are – wearing masks to fit in with other people… always afraid to express you true self… well, you’re not REALLY LIVING are you?

So many people are unhappy… feeling completely drained every day… because it is EXHAUSTING pretending to be someone else all day every day.

You are unique and because of that you need to follow your own unique path.

Do not be afraid to say what you feel, and be who you are, because in the end – even though SOME people will fall away, those are all the wrong people. When you be yourself – the right people will be attracted to you, and they will stay.

WAYNE DYER ON THE LAW OF ATTRACTION

“Our intention creates our reality.” – Wayne Dyer

“You’ll see it when you believe it.” – Wayne Dyer

They saying goes “I’ll believe it WHEN I see it” but the truth is you will NEVER see it unless you first BELIEVE IT.

Have you ever seen a champion sports person who had no self belief win ANYTHING?

Have you ever seen a super successful person, in any field of life, achieve anything they did NOT BELIEVE would happen?

The truth is BELIEF must come first, and when it does you will start seeing that which you want in your life.

How do you start believing it?

First you set the INTENTION for what you want to show up in your life. Then you take whatever actions you need to take to make that thing your reality.

Then, you consistently keep improving in that area, from all the action, learning and new intentions you are setting – then, from all the improvements you are making you start BELIEVING more and more.

Greater intentions, greater beliefs, mixed with action and learning creates amazing results.

1. Set intentions for everything you want in your life.
2. Write down all the actions you need to take to make those intentions your reality.
3. Commit to work towards these intentions every day, by learning all you can and taking all the action you need to take to make it a reality.
4. Track your progress and give yourself some credit when you make progress.
5. Write down what or who you’re doing this all for and carry this around with you everywhere. If you have a purpose that goes beyond yourself – a deep, meaningful purpose – you will not give up when things get hard.

“It’s never crowded along the extra mile.”
 – Wayne Dyer

“Successful people make money. It’s not that people who make money become successful, but that successful people attract money. They bring success to what they do.”
 – Wayne Dyer

“Anything you really want, you can attain, if you really go after it.”
 – Wayne Dyer

The truth is you can have ANYTHING you want – if, and only if you are willing to go after it.

The reason it is not crowded at the top is because most people are NOT willing to go the extra mile.

The want the life of their idols, but are not interested in doing what it took to get there, nor what it takes to stay there.

Success comes to those WHO REALLY WANT IT… not those who SAY they want it.

Do you really want what you say you want?

“Doing what you love is the cornerstone of having abundance in your life.” – Wayne Dyer

“There’s no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love. There is only a scarcity of resolve to make it happen.” – Wayne Dyer

Can you really call yourself successful if you are making a lot of money, but doing something you hate every day?

Would you rather do something you hate and earn a lot of money, or earn ENOUGH money and do something you love every day?

The truth is, none of us can be happy doing things we hate, for money.

Even if we are unaware of it, spending the greater part of our life doing things we hate in exchange for money does nothing but chip away at our soul.

Although it doesn’t suit the establishment, it would be great if we were all taught at a young age that the only thing of importance is that we FEEL GOOD – and that means choosing WORK that feels good as well. Not work that earns us the most amount of money so we can feel important and significant… work that makes us happy, lightens our load… inspires creativity…

Ask yourself if your work is contributing to a better YOU?

What would you love to do, if money wasn’t an issue?

“Loving people live in a loving world. Hostile people live in a hostile world. Same world.” – Wayne Dyer

I’m sure you know someone who is always angry, and seems to always be attracting other angry people – confrontation and negative situations into their life. It’s almost as though they have a negative magnet they carry around.

Likewise, I’m sure you know someone who almost always seems upbeat, positive and rarely if ever speaks negatively – no doubt this person rarely if ever attracts negative situations or angry people.

How do you want to live your life?

Now is a great time to come together as people, to support each other, to lift each other up – to change our energy first, so we can have a positive effect on those around us.

Start with you.

How can YOU be better today?

“The highest form of ignorance is when you reject something you don’t know anything about.” – Wayne Dyer

There’s two words that describe one of the biggest reasons people suffer and fail to live a life they deserve:
 Narrow minded.

Being open to all possibilities, including the possibility of yourself being wrong is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself.

Having the humility to accept that you MAY BE WRONG, no matter what the topic, no matter how crazy and far fetched it may seem, is a gift, because it means you are not only open to all possibilities, but you don’t believe everything you hear either.

Trust your gut and your intuition – you know intuitively when something is off. No matter how many “experts” tell you something is a certain way, look at the facts, use your COMMON SENSE – come to your own conclusions based on facts, common sense and what you believe – not what society tells you to believe.

“You don’t need to be better than anyone else, you just need to be better than you used to be.” – Wayne Dyer

Compete with no one and compare yourself with no one.

Your greatest competition is never going to be another human – it will always be yourself – and the greatest part about that is that you can always defeat your former self.

You can have the intention, every day to be better in some way, than you were YESTERDAY.

That is how your life gets better in a huge way, by improving just a little bit, in one or a few areas, every single day.

Make that commitment to yourself – to compete with no one but yourself, and become your best ever self.

WAYNE DYER ON JUDGING OTHERS


“When you judge another, you do not define them, you define yourself.” – Wayne Dyer

“How people treat you is their karma; how you react is yours.” – Wayne Dyer

Judging others says nothing about them, but says a lot about our need to judge and our insecurities.

Secure people don’t judge.

Do your best to understand where others are coming from, and if you can’t understand… move on and let them live their life however they wish to live it.

If someone judges you, rightly or wrongly, whatever the situation, it is your choice how you REACT.

Reacting with negative energy will never do anything positive for YOUR LIFE.

That does not mean there won’t be times where you have to react, respond or take action against some negative person or situation in your life – it means checking yourself, so you are not adding fuel to the fire – so you are not doing the very thing you hate in the other person.

Action might be needed, negative energy is never needed.

“It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have the power to choose either.” – Wayne Dyer

This is an important choice we all make every day, and in so many moments throughout every day.

The choice to live in a positive or negative state… and you better believe these choices have a massive flow on effect on the overall quality of your life.

It doesn’t take much common sense to understand the more anger and negativity in your life – the worse the quality of your life – and the opposite, the more positivity and happiness you bring to each day, the better your life will be. Not just from the obvious perspective of HOW YOU FEEL – but also the decisions you make are known to be better when you are in a positive state.

Have you ever made a good decision when you are raging angry?

Try to spend more of your days in joy, laugh more, play more – spend more time with things that make you smile and less time consuming things that make you angry.

“To be more childlike, you don’t have to give up being an adult. The fully integrated person is capable of being both an adult and a child simultaneously. Recapture the childlike feelings of wide-eyed excitement, spontaneous appreciation, cutting loose, and being full of awe and wonder at this magnificent universe.” – Wayne Dyer

“Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else. Your completeness must be understood by you and experienced in your thoughts as your own personal reality.” – Wayne Dyer

Feeling complete is not determined by what you have, but only be how you FEEL.

The sooner you realize that you are well capable of feeling complete without much at all, the sooner your life and how you feel about your life will improve.

“The ego is only an illusion, but a very influential one. Letting the ego- illusion become your identity can prevent you from knowing your true self. Ego, the false idea of believing that you are what you have or what you do, is a backwards way of assessing and living life.” – Wayne Dyer

“Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing.” – Wayne Dyer

“The more you see yourself as what you’d like to become, and act as if what you want is already there, the more you’ll activate those dormant forces that will collaborate to

transform your dream into your reality.” Wayne Dyer

“If we focus on what’s ugly, we attract more ugliness into our thoughts, and then into our emotions, and ultimately into our lives.” – Wayne Dyer

– Ronald Reagan


Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.

The post This is Why We Must Fight For Our Freedom (Famous Quotes on Freedom) appeared first on Fearless Motivation - Motivational Videos & Music.

“I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become.”
– Carl Jung



The sad reality of most human beings is just that… Most people DO believe they are what happened to them.



Most people equate self-worth with their past, with their achievements, with how OTHER PEOPLE view them.

 But we are none of those things… we are, as Jung puts it who we “CHOOSE to become”.



We are always only ONE DECISION away from a completely different life.



What happens to us is NEVER a choice… but how we choose to FEEL about what happens is ALWAYS our choice.



How we choose to RESPOND to life circumstances is A CHOICE.

 Who we decide to be in EVERY moment, including adversities, will determine the quality of our life.

Leave your past behind, and decide, today… NOW… WHO YOU WILL BE… from this moment forward.

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
– Carl Jung

“

Why do bad things keep happening to me?” Some say… 

“Why do the same (negative) kind of people keep appearing in my life?”…

The unconscious, or rather sub-conscious controls almost all human behaviour. 

It has been said that almost all brain activity happens on a subconscious level… the problem is, most people do not understand this basic principle, and therefor are running their life on autopilot, repeating the same reactions and responses, and often repeating the same problems, over and over again in a figure 8 loop.

Einstein said: The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.

 Until you CHANGE the reactions, responses and actions you’ve conditioned into yourself unconsciously, you won’t see different OUTCOMES in your life.



Until you learn WHY you are acting in a certain way, you’ll never be able to act better.

Until we learn WHY we FEEL a certain way, on a consistent basis, we will not be able to consistently feel better, in any way.

You need to step back and examine your life… examine YOU.

What feelings, behaviours, habits and actions are running on autopilot?

What can you bring forward to the light, into your conscious, into your PRESENCE… if you can manage that, you can start changing those habits – consciously.

With repetition you can reprogram these new habits, feelings and behaviours into your NEW subconscious program.

Better habits. Better reactions. Better outcomes.

“As far as we can discern, the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere being.”
– Carl Jung



“Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word happy would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness. It is far better to take things as they come along with patience and equanimity.” – Carl Jung



“The least of things with a meaning is worth more in life than the greatest of things without it.”
– Carl Jung

Without the contrast of sadness, happiness does not exist.

Without dark, there is no light.

A happy life then, is not one without sadness, or misery, or failures, or problems. A happy life… A FULL LIFE… is a life with MEANING.

 If you had in your possession every penny on earth, and all the material possessions you desire, it would still give you no guarantees of happiness, and certainly no meaning. 

You don’t need THINGS, money or possessions to have meaning – but meaning does make for a RICH LIFE. 

With MEANING and PURPOSE in your life you can face the inevitable challenges of life without fear… With MEANING and PURPOSE in your life you can LET GO of the past, because there is always a brighter to work toward, to believe in… tomorrow.

MEANING and PURPOSE give you reason to get up in the morning… enthusiasm to go about your day, PURPOSE for living…

Kindle a light in the darkness of your being. Discover who you are, develop a life of meaning and purpose, and accept every inevitable challenge that comes your way.



“It all depends on how we look at things, and not how they are in themselves.”
– Carl Jung

Whatever happens in your life is NOT reality, but rather your interpretation of it.

 Let me repeat, whatever happens is NOT REALITY, but your interpretation of reality.

On one of your best days, a challenge appears, and you deal with it, with presence, with confidence, with competence… Then, the challenge disappears, perhaps even turns into a blessing… a new understanding. 

On one of your worst days, the same challenge appears, you react angrily, unconsciously, the challenge turns into a bigger issue, a larger problem and consequently affects your life and others in a much bigger, not so pleasant way.

 What happened? It was the same challenge?

 It depends how you look at it.

We’ve all experienced moments like this. 

Problems that escalated due to our reaction. Challenges that disappeared due to our reaction. 

It is not how things are, but how we see them.



We can see BEAUTY in anything and UGLINESS in anything… 

The real question is, what do you CHOOSE to see?



“Thinking is difficult, that’s why most people judge.”
– Carl Jung

We have to step back and catch ourselves judging… and this is not easy, because we all want to think of ourselves as good human beings… and you may well be… but you must take ownership for your judging, as much as the next person. Judging people, judging things, judging circumstances… How do you judge? Who do you judge?

Has there ever been a moment in your life where you’ve judged a person, or a situation… and then realized you were completely wrong? 
I think we’ve all had this experience.

We should never judge a person or a situation where there are no facts. If we don’t KNOW… we must accept we don’t know… and expect the best.

We really do CHOOSE how we see everything, and anything can be seen through a positive, optimistic lens if that is our intention.

Make it your intention.

Less judgment, more optimism.
Less negativity, more positivity.
Less despair, more wonder.

“Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes.”
– Carl Jung



Those who look outside, at others, to society for an indication of how they should act or fit into the world… are lost in a dream… perhaps a nightmare.

A life lived, not authentically, but how they perceive will be most acceptable by the standards of society.

To awaken is to look within. To look within your own heart. To trust your intuition and to be brave enough to live life on YOUR TERMS.

Not caring for others opinions and judgements. Only focused on the life that lights you up. The authentic you… living your authentic life.

That is the awakened life. The REAL YOU… living with freedom of all outside expectations and opinions.

“Knowing your own darkness is the best method for dealing with the darknesses of other people.” – Carl Jung



When we understand, from a place of true humility, that we are all capable of the “darkness”… and that darkness is within us ALL, we can then have empathy for the way others act. Understanding that everyone is doing the best with the life circumstances they were presented.

As Maya Angelou said, “if they knew better, they’d do better”

We’ve all made mistakes… and for most of us, when we stuffed up… we knew better, so we did better.

 We no longer wanted to hurt others, or ourselves through our behaviour… we learned the lesson, and we moved on.

 For most people, the darkness doesn’t hang around for long… but it should give us some compassion for others, knowing that even we have made mistakes, no one is perfect… and perhaps with the same life circumstances we would not do any better than the other.

 Perhaps if we went through what they went through, we would not have the tools to do any better than they are doing.

It does not mean condoning any type of behaviour – it is an understanding that no baby was born evil, or with bad intentions.




“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” – Carl Jung

Anything that irritates you in another is likely within you, or within your shadow. They are the things we are most afraid will come out of ourselves.

It’s like a mirror for your own personality. What irritates you in others can teach you important things about yourself.

Pay attention to those things in others that irritate you, perhaps there is something you can work on too.





“Where love rules, there is no will to power; and where power predominates, there love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other.”
– Carl Jung



And how badly do we need MORE LOVE and LESS POWER in the world today…

The endless seeking of power and control is due to a lack of love… a lack of connection and empathy for others.

Ask yourself how you can let go of your own need for power and control… even a little… and how you can bring more LOVE, compassion, understanding and giving in your own world.

“If there is anything that we wish to change in the child, we should first examine it and see whether it is not something that could better be changed in ourselves.
– Carl Jung

“The creation of something new is not accomplished by the intellect but by the play instinct acting from inner necessity. The creative mind plays with the objects it loves.”
– Carl Jung

“The debt we owe to the play of imagination is incalculable.”
– Carl Jung

“We cannot change anything until we accept it. Condemnation does not liberate, it oppresses.”
– Carl Jung

“You are what you do, not what you say you’ll do.”
– Carl Jung



We do live in this kind of world, where many people talk too much, and act too little.

 As Jung says, you are what YOU DO… not what you SAY you will do.



You do not need to tell the world, or tell anyone what your plans are… you can show them with your ACTIONS… with your RESULTS.

That is ultimately how we are all judged anyway… on how we show up everyday… WHO WE ARE… WHAT WE DO… never what who we SAY WE ARE or what we’re going to do.

Less talk. More action.

Leaving the need for validation behind and BEING who we intend do be… DOING what we want to do… and letting the right people show up because of those choices.

“A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life.” – Muhammad Ali.


A life fully lived, is a life that has learned lessons from the past, and used them to create a more magical present and a better future.

If you’re still complaining about the same things you were 30,20,10 or even one year ago… it’s time to change something…. And that something is YOU.

You should be constantly evolving and growing WHO YOU ARE from life experience and from the work you do on YOU.


Are you better than you were 10 years ago?

Have you grown?

What areas can you improve?

“He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” – Muhammad Ali.


Everything worthwhile in life will require an element of risk.
 Everything in life that has the possibility of a GREAT REWARD… carries with it an element of risk.

The reward is not guaranteed… failure is a possibility… and so there is RISK.

The real question is this… is the REWARD worth the RISK?
 
 Whatever you REALLY WANT in life… IS WORTH THE RISK.

Starting that business… is a risk… but will the REWARD of success be worth the risk?
 If the answer is YES, you must go for it.

Asking that person out is a risk… they might say NO… but the life together on the other side might be worth taking that risk.
 And so the point is… for the things that REALLY MATTER… you must take the risk.

Do not live in regret, for fear of failure, because the only real failure is not attempting to live the life you want to live.

“Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.” – Muhammad Ali.


Giving is it’s own reward. It doesn’t cost anything, it’s not expected, but it sure makes your life a whole lot more fulfilling.

Giving to others doesn’t have to be financial or material… it could mean giving of your time, giving your experience… giving your presence… understanding… love.

How can YOU make this world a better place today?
 
How can YOU make someone else’s day BETTER, TODAY?


Look for opportunities to serve, anyone and everyone you come into contact with.

“It’s the repetition of affirmations that leads to BELIEF. And once that belief becomes a deep conviction, things begin to happen.” – Muhammad Ali.


Step one: AFFIRM with REPETITION until you BELIEVE.
Step two: REPEAT step one until it is ingrained into your very being.

You have to speak and FEEL what you want.
 
 You have to AFFIRM and FEEL who you want to be… before you are that person…

You must believe you deserve it, work toward it until you see it, and affirm it until you BECOME IT.


The greatest gift you can give yourself is SELF-BELIEF. Develop that belief in yourself through repetition. Repetition of affirmation and repetition of action.

Constantly trying, getting up after failing… continuing to beat the drum until you find the winning beat.

“I hated every minute of training, but I said, ‘Don’t quit. Suffer now and live the rest of your life as a champion.”- Muhammad Ali.


Champions, like Ali, are willing to suffer now, to live the rest of their life as a champion… and in the same way, those who succeed, in ANY area of life are willing to delay gratification. They are prepared to SUFFER for a period, knowing the REWARD coming in the future.

Most people seek comfort in the moment, even if it leads to pain later…. Very few people are willing to go through PAIN in the moment for the possibility of a brighter future.


One person might take the first crappy job that comes in order to pay the bills tomorrow… knowing full well they will be stuck there, miserable for years to come.

Another person might suffer through financially, while they work on developing their skills, and getting a better job, or starting their own business that will lead to less pain in the FUTURE.

It’s a choice. It’s a mindset. Your best life will never be gained by choosing the easy option.

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” – Epictetus

In creating your best life, it would never be wise to expect for the circumstances of your life to be perfect, rather to develop the character required to overcome and thrive through all challenges. 

Life happens. Challenges welcome all of us, and so, the difference in the quality of life we lead, is in our response.

However you respond to the challenges of life, determines the quality of your life. 

However you choose to view the world around you, is what will be reflected back to you.

Do you view life through an optimistic lens, or a pessimistic one?

When life gets tough… when challenges arrive… do you RISE to the challenge, or complain, curse and quit?

The character and strength developed through refusing to quit when things get hard is priceless.

 Remember, it does not matter what happens, it only matters how you REACT TO WHAT HAPPENS.


“We have two ears and one mouth… so that we can listen twice as much as we speak.” – Epictetus

Most of us live this way. We talk too much and listen too little.

 We want to be seen all knowing, so we voice our opinion when we don’t know… and don’t know because we fail to listen.

We all want to be heard, but very few of us hear the other.

Next time you are in a conversation with someone, especially those you care about, practice intentional listening. Do not wait for your turn to speak, just listen, with the intention to understand.

 Be present. Listen more.



“There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will.” – Epictetus



Trying to change things out of our control is often referred to as insanity, most likely because it is.

Accept all things you can not change and work to change all things you can.

 Release resistance and all stress for all things outside of your control. That energy used in fighting against what-is… should be used for something more positive… like improving other areas of your life you do have control over.

Happiness simply can not come to those who are fighting against life.



“Wealth consists not in having great possessions, but in having few wants.”



“He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.” – Epictetus

Gratitude. The greatest power on earth. When you LIVE in it, you are complete. When you live without it, no matter how much you have, you’ll never have enough.

 Rich are those who are happy with ALL they have, no matter how much they have… and usually those are the ones who attract more to be grateful for.

If you don’t already, make gratitude a daily practice. Spend a few moments every day thinking about everything that IS GREAT in your life… everything that makes you truly rich… all the things money can’t buy.

“No man is free who is not master of himself.” – Epictetus

No matter how much wealth you have accumulated or how much you own, if you aren’t the master of your mind, you can not be free.

Nothing can be more important than mastering your mind, mastering your emotions. 

Throughout the years there have been countless stories of millionaires, billionaires and those who seemingly had it all… ending their own life… Although they had accumulated a lot of material wealth, they did not feel rich on the inside… and that’s just it, riches should always begin on the inside.

Society has it backwards… putting material success and winning on a pedestal when there live so many “winners” who are emotionally void.

Focus first on your mental, and physical health and everything else will fall into place.


“First say to yourself what you would be; and then do what you have to do.” – Epictetus

Have that conversation with yourself. First ask exactly what you want to experience in your life. Everything you must have.

 Then, be prepared to work for, sacrifice for, and EARN what you must have.

If you really want it, it won’t feel like work, you will do the work, you will put in the hours, you will make the sacrifices, but you will do it willingly, with no resistance – because the OUTCOME will be more important than the time it takes to get there, or whatever you have to give up to get there.

Go on that journey. Find what you really want… and go get it.

“It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.” Epictetus spoke these words thousands of years ago… they are more important TODAY than ever before.

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how YOU REACT to what happens… That is what will determine your destiny.

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how you PROCESS what happens… your thoughts about what happens… how you CHOOSE TO FEEL ABOUT what happens… your REACTION to what happens… and the PLAN OF ACTION you make to respond to what happens.

Your boss or crappy job… or failing business… or poor grades… can NOT be a problem if you know inside your self… that this is NOT FORVER… if you know that you will amount to more than this brief moment in time… if you are committed to do the work required to be better and BECOME MORE than you are now.

The heartbreak you are experiencing might be tough now… but it will NOT define your life… unless you allow it to do so.

However you see and respond to ANY… and EVERY EVENT in your life determines YOUR DESTINY.

You have to constantly ask yourself:
HOW CAN I MOVE FORWARD?…
How can I move past this?
How can I be better?
What can I learn from this?

Failure hits us all. Heartache hits us all. Problems… people we don’t want in our life, illness, disappointment … this is all a normal part of being human… what is NOT normal is taking in all of that AND MOVING FORWARD ANYWAY.

What is not normal is being beaten down by life, time after time… and TIME AFTER TIME RISING UP and saying IS THAT ALL YOU GOT!

What is not normal is seeing the PROBLEM in your way as a CHALLENGE… as an opportunity to show WHO YOU ARE. WHO ARE YOU?

WHO ARE YOU?

If you’re like most people… who you have been is a mere shadow of who you SHOULD BE and WHO YOU COULD BECOME…

What has happened in the past…. It really doesn’t matter though… what matters is WHO YOU DECIDE TO BE NOW.

Who are you going to be from this moment forward?

Whatever happens, never EVER FORGET THESE WORDS:

It does NOT matter what happens to you but how YOU REACT to what happens… That is what will determine your destiny.

Whatever happens YOU CAN RISE ABOVE IT. You can DEFEAT IT… you can be better for having experienced it.

You choose. Choose wisely.
