Day #148: Morning Fresh

Every day you have the chance to start fresh, to reapply your skills, your attitude and to give it all you’ve got! Take a moment to identify what you can do better today! Take a deep breath and soldier on by starting the day better than the day before! You are the one calling the shots in your life. Make them count!

With this in mind, like any day we can become tied up with the “important” things such as work or other duties and sometimes we forget to stop and smell the flowers. Meaning, we don’t stop to identify the details. 

Along those lines, we also forget to celebrate the victories our efforts have created. Be proud of where you have come from and what you’ve achieved. If not earlier, then every 90 days you should review the last three months, and soak up your achievements no matter how small they are.

Have a moment of reflection and see what has been really defining you for the past 3 months or whatever the time frame is.

Day #147: Your Life Easier

Living essentially comes down to your path, your purpose, your goals and the end game you are playing for. How you make your way to your destination comes down to the decisions you are making daily. 

“Life is hard at times. But when I overcome more challenges, I become much stronger then. So I’m going to embrace them.” – Lifehack

From a generic standpoint, below are five ways in which you can make your life easier:

  1. A fine-tuned routine. 
  2. Your lifestyle choice of food and beverages
  3. Exercise and consistently
  4. Well tuned sleeping pattern
  5. Minimal decision-making

I won’t go into the finer details today, however, have a think regarding the above. Take a guess, take a moment to think about how these areas in your life are reflected. Without reading detailed information, can we see anywhere you can make your life easier?

Day #146: Almost Half Way

Well there you go, we have now made it 40% into the year. Yep, you have now officially used up 40% of your year. That’s almost half way! I don’t want to oversell it, but this suggests you have very little time before your halfway checkpoint for another year done and dusted is close. 

That’s:

  • 3,504 hours
  • 21,0240 minutes
  • 12,614,400 seconds

Let’s put this into a bit more perspective. You have nearly made it half way through the year and my biggest challenge to you is; to ask your yourself whether you’re satisfied with what you have achieved so far this year. Is there room for improvement, are there things you need to change? Should you have spent more time on something better, or less on something else?

Below are a list of questions to ask yourself to really see how you are progressing so far this year. Be honest with yourself, and see what you need to spend more attention on for the rest of the year.

  • Have you given your best effort?
  • What could have you done better, or not done at all?
  • Have you enjoyed what you have been doing?
  • What was your motivation for doing what you have done?
  • Did you set your goals right, did you achieve them?
  • What were your expectations by this time in the year?
  • Is it time to change it up?
  • Are you still happy?
  • Do you see yourself doing what you do now in the next 5 years?
  • What have you learned?
  • Have you built your character?
  • Have you made better and healthier choices?
  • Have you expressed love for family and friends?
  • Have you got any grudges?
  • Are you content?

“When wealth is lost, nothing is lost; when health is lost, something is lost; when character is lost, all is lost.” – Billy Graham

Day #145: You’ve Got Courage

Courage is what keeps us going even in the middle of fear. Courage is what sets us apart from actually starting to succeeding. When was the last time you went on an adventure? This can be in any shape or form, but when was the last time you did something which you knew would be good for you but scared the jeepers out of you? We should encourage courage, we should embrace courage and we should share the experience with others. 

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage. – Anais Nin

It takes courage to be you – Look around, the world has a mold for us. There is a laundry list of things “we are supposed to do” by a certain time and in a certain way. There’s an assembly line we are all on with the same mold coming down quickly on each of us. It takes courage to get up, leave some behind, and make your own mold.

Day #144: Life VS Challenge

We all face a challenge. Life is a challenge. We just need to learn to live with it. The trick is to is to ask yourself about how serious you are and if you are willing to take control.

If you want something, if you want to be somewhere, if you have a dream, a goal or a mission – what is stopping you from getting there?

You are the only one that can drive, control and totally motivate yourself! You need to be willing to make time for the things you are aiming for!

What makes you itch? What do you desire?

If you are lacking motivation, is it due to you not wanting to make the challenge a priority? Are you just lazy? Are you making excuses? Ask yourself; How much do you want it? If you are not going to get out there and give it a go – you will never ever know or grow.

Day #143: Taking The Steps

Whether we need to take small steps, big steps, a few steps or lots of steps. They are required if you want to succeed. When you have a goal in sight it isn’t about putting in the effort so that people can see, but it is about being consistent and making the right choices that will add up in the end to the result you were looking for. You may have told someone what you are doing, or maybe you didn’t. Regardless, the daily grind and the daily struggle is to then continue on with a daily practice of ensuring you are making the small choices that will add up in the end. People may not even notice the hard work and efforts,

You may have told someone what you are doing, or maybe you didn’t. Regardless, the daily grind and the daily struggle is to then continue on with a daily practice of ensuring you are making the small choices that will add up in the end. People may not even notice the hard work and efforts, however, the time will come and when it does – you will want to be ready for it. 

It’s all about accepting the short-term pain, in order to progress on for long-term gain.

If don’t believe in yourself, how can you expect to have the sheer willpower to push yourself to the limits required to break your stubborn mindsets.

So how will you reach your next goal? Will you apply integrity and surprise people over time? Or will you take a plunge and hit the ground running maintaining a consistent routine?

The option is yours.

Day #142: Worth The Risk

We all have a risk to take. Actually, we will have many risks to consider and some we will tolerate, others we will avoid. For way too long I hear people complaining that they want this and want that. They consume themselves with worry and doubt and because of this they will never get it or see it. However, I think more than half the time we are too scared to do the something we have never done before in order to have the something we have never had. 

Life is full of taking risks. Everything you do will have a margin of risk and margin of consequence. No outcome is ever to be 100% certain, therefore, any attempt at anything has a chance of failing.

Murphy’s Law – If it can happen it will.

Every day you risk your life without even knowing it. Even as simple of walking outside is a risk, as you never know what is going to happen.

How you live your life will depend on the choices you make, the risks you take…

Risk; is the absence of security. Taking risk leaves future events to chance. Chance is when one can not accurately, or with assurance, predict a future outcome with confidence. Most people find comfort in security, which is fine but there is comfort in security, but not a lot of reward.

Risks can often result in failure. Rewards become elusive in the sense of “Better to be safe than sorry” being a common reason why risks are left aside.

If there were more risk takers there might be more ideas implemented and discoveries made. Until such time, people will take the safer path, a road more traveled.

The point is, we can be making risks and choices in our lives each day to get us to the places we want to go. To name a few:

  • Starting that business
  • Pursuing a passion
  • Telling someone how you feel
  • The use of finances and investments

I’m sure you will have some of your own examples – but at the end of the day, you will not see the reward unless you are willing to front the risk for reward.

Day #141: Be Bold. Be Brave

Life is tough. So be bold, be brave and show it just how tough you are. 

Life throws us into the deep end and sometimes it feels so much easier to give up on our goals and dreams as it all seem just too hard. When we feel this way, we need to take another chance and continue to give it another go. As sooner or later it will budge. You will grow, you will learn, you will become stronger. Be bold. Be brave.

Stepping out in boldness in itself is a strength but when it is also without hesitation or fear in the face of possible danger this is when the magic happens!

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. –Theodore Roosevelt

My challenge to you today is to really ask yourself about how strong and how bold you are. As you will find the more that you think that you are strong enough… the more you may have to grow.

We can try so hard being strong and we can fight it out long enough to surprise ourselves, but soon enough you will need to stop kidding yourself and you may just need to ask for some help.

“I’m not afraid of storms, for I’m learning how to sail my ship.” –Louisa May Alcott

Remember sometimes to be your strongest you need to be bold enough to ask for help. Are you strong enough?

Day #140: Success Threshold

The threshold limiting your maximum potential comes down to the threshold you have placed on success.

“Think of yourself as on the threshold of unparalleled success. A whole, clear, glorious life lies before you. Achieve! Achieve!” – Andrew Carnegie

If you’re looking for a quick win, a quick skip through time to your ultimate endgame, there isn’t one. But there is the process of creating something great. Something great is literally driven by one immense desire to have a greater impact. 

You can either create something great or greater. Or, you can just expect that greatness to land in your lap.

In short; do more, expect higher and achieve greater. It’s that simple.

“High expectations are the key to everything.” – Sam Walton

Day #139: Fighting Fear

Fear comes and goes but seems to come when we least expect it or least want it. However, fear within limits can be a reminder of faith and motivation.

When you face it, you know you are walking into a challenge, a challenge that will grow you, test you and push you further. You may not like it, but once you have conquered whatever it may be, you feel better than ever, you feel freedom, liberation and a peek of what success is all about! 

Leverage fear into something that can help you do better than before! However, if you struggle to overcome it, if you feel your faith isn’t great enough in the moment, remember

– Isaiah 41:10 Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.
