Sometimes all we have to inspire us is the serenity before us. While at the same time, looking ahead towards our destination can stir quite the scare.

Not always knowing how things are going to pan out can cause unnecessary stress and increase pressure.

But fear not, as whenever something is coming your way, rather than trying to give up, try to find ways to push further.

I understand that looking forward can seem overwhelming and I know that it can all seem a little too much.

But in time, in strength, effort and with a solid mind you will be pushing your way further than you could have imagined.

I know for me – When I look ahead and I can see a pile of work/tasks or challenges to complete. This is where I need to be positive about it.

Being Positive About It

• Look at the situation and redefine it through a positive perspective
• Smile about it – embrace the challenge
• Know your limits, but know you will grow too

Apply a lens which inspires serenity. Easy said than done, I know. But that is why you need to practice. 

“The only way to feel better about myself is to go out… and do it.” – Susan Jeffers

It will always seem impossible in the beginning, but that is because you have no idea of what it yet to come.

But soon enough you will see just how MORE THAN CAPABLE you are and you will feel even better about it once it is done.

So will you apply a positive perspective? Will you seek serenity?

Like 2016, 2017 brings new horizons and new opportunities. How we react and take action on these opportunities will ultimately redefine how 2017 will be. What will you do?

Routine is what makes things light and easy. They become consistent and remove the overwhelming of decision making. We’re 25% through the year.  A quarter is done and dusted.

Where has it gone? What have you achieved? What are you yet to do?

Is life busy, is life overwhelming? Are you keeping up with what you have chosen to do for the year?

Education? Study? Working? Work? Family? Love?

We have so much going on, when and where can we breathe and reflect let alone let loose and live a little or just have some me time?

Well if it helps – just remember you are not the only one with all these things going on – so don’t think for one second that you have it tougher than someone else. As there will always be someone else who is going through more and worse than you.

With this said though – you are allowed to feel overwhelmed; for if you are feeling overwhelmed, the positive way to view this is that it is your body and mind telling you that you are growing. You have reached a new point outside your bubble of comfort and you are feeling it! Like all the hard work you do at the gym, (you better be going) the next day is when you feel the growth… the good pain.

This overwhelming time may be stressful, full of pressure and scary… but it is growing you and you will get through it.

My trick towards taking on a full on week, a full load of work or in any case, to be honest, is to have a regular routine.

The best way I stay honest, dedicated and motivated is by setting aside the time in my week to do my regulars, making a routine. We are all creatures of habit, some more than others, but we all tend to work better with a set schedule as it is a sense of security.

You can have one big routine, or you can multiple routines in a day. Regardless, build a consistent schedule and create your routine down to the details. Yes, that includes, the meals you make for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, to the times you commute to work, to the music types you listen to at certain times. The list goes on…

Build and create your own, make it a shadow of your existence and make it automated by doing it regularly – soon enough it will come second nature.

With this all in mind, I guess the most important thing is to take a break once in a while. Even if this means 30 mins out of a busy day. A BREAK is a BREAK.

As taking a breather will do these 5 things:

• Give yourself a perspective on what really matters
• Lower overall stress levels
• Raise self-awareness
• Focus on the present
• Reduce Negative Emotions

A pace is all about keeping yourself steady enough to progress but slow enough to control. Like anything, if we rush it we can make mistakes, however, if we pace ourselves we can take control and speed through something with ease. 

In this busy world, in order for us to speed up and hustle on through, we need to learn to pace ourselves into a new and into a challenge. Yes, it can be great to be thrown into a deep end as it forces us to make decisions and keep ourselves afloat. However, when we pace ourselves into things, we are doing it at a consistent speed of growth, while ensuring we are moving forward at the same time.  Progress over perfection, even if it means slow and steady.

I challenge you to pace yourself! Take control of things, before you jump right in and see how it can benefit you!

When you are trying to figure out what it is you like to be, be creative and go full force into exploring life, questions will always help jolt your thinking.

Below I have collated the top 8 questions that reignite your thinking to figuring out what you want to do with your life.

1. What did you dream of becoming when you were a child?
2. Where do you spend your free time?
3. Listen to your mind wander – What does it really wish it could be doing?
4. What is an activity you do that makes you feel so happy, that when you do it, the time flies by?
5. What type of activities, events, shows, books, media and even people are you attracted to?
6. Letting go of the past – if you let go of any limitations you have placed upon yourself, what would you do?
7. What does success really mean to you? Define your perfect life…
8. You can have any exact amount of money for the rest of your life. How much would you take and how would you use it?

So from the above – have you found yourself closer to identifying what it is you want to do?

Get creative with the above. There is no right or wrong answer, there is just your answer. 

With this, all in mind keep in mind your goals.

Goals are one of the most important parts of any journey, they set the tone for your mission.
Goals provide clarity when times get tough. They reinforce why you are doing, whatever it is you are choosing to do.
Setting goals and visiting them often will keep you motivated.

There is a great saying which reminds us that the importance of virtue…

“There is virtue in work and there is virtue in rest. Use both and overlook neither.” — Alan Cohen

We work to make a living, we work to survive and we work to make a difference. 

We should also rest to live, rest to survive and rest to make a difference. 

Work and rest go hand in hand. The more of the one, then unevenly yoked will be the other. 

The challenge we face is why do we feel so belittled when resting but are always striving to work…

Too many times and repeatedly I hear people say they want things to change… well in order for change, you need to get up and take action.

Whether it be the kg’s you weigh, the people in your life, the addictions you carry or simply your laziness. If you want something to change, you need to get up and start making the changes. There is no remote to life, there is no quick win, there is nothing which will do this all for you. Ultimately it comes down to you and the choice you have to choose to make a change. Build the lifestyle, the

Why not build the lifestyle? Cut out the problems, work out and work off those kg’s, stand up to those addictions, say no to laziness. Your time is now!!!

To remain positive in the chaos and the stress driven lives we face on a daily basis – presents itself as a true challenge. We all have our tough moments and difficulties in which sometimes it is easier to give up or surrender…

We all have our tough moments and difficulties in which sometimes it is easier to give up or surrender…

But, I find the best way to stay positive is to build and create your mindset for optimism and opportunity.

Being positive can be overwhelming for others, but it can also inspire and challenge others – let alone yourself.

Sometimes the difficulties we face in life come from situations out of our control, and other times our difficulties are a direct consequence of the decisions we make.
In life, we cannot change events or their outcome.  We can, however, choose the emotion and meaning we attach to them.

Especially when you are fighting for a goal or working towards a target. You may be stuck to move forward, so find another way but remain positive.

If the plan doesn’t work, change the plan but never the goal. – Unknown

In each journey, there is a timeline. Some are long and some are short…

It is common to be frustrated when you feel like you’re just not good enough, successful or simply not making the impact you dreamed of. Let me remind you that every expert was a beginner and today you are somewhere on that journey between a beginner and an expert. Your timeline now can not be compared to an experts timeline which is at their peak.

Keep on your journey and one day you will be at that point on your timeline you have always dreamed of. You will be the expert!!!

Until you are the expert, you need to absorb, learn, grow, understand, listen and take your time in becoming who you are meant to be.

Like 2016, 2017 brings new horizons and new opportunities. How we react and take action on these opportunities will ultimately redefine how 2017 will be. What will you do?

What is driving you?

Today I want to prompt your thinking, challenge your motives and encourage you!

Let’s start with your morning:

• What makes you get out of bed?
• Why do you have/do not have breakfast? Is there a reason for either?
• Are you a morning person? What would one word define why you are?
• What would one word define you if you’re a night owl?
• How long does it take you to smile?
• What’re the first thoughts on your mind?

Your daily do:

• Why do you do the job you do?
• Would you do it for free?
• If you don’t have a job, then what would you want to do?
• Are you ever stressed?
• Does stress motivate or hinder you?
• Challenges or no challenges?
• Are you stretching your comfort zone?
• How often?

Spare time: 

• How do you spend it?
• How much spare time do you have?
• Weekdays compared to weekends?
• Do you exercise?
• At home or gym?

The above are just some prompt questions to get you thinking about your drive and or motivation.

Motivation comes from looking at the things you want and realizing what it takes to get it – Unknown

What I would suggest is you take the same idea and ask yourself about all areas of your life.

The more direct yet open questions you ask the more you will need to think about it.

Try writing these down with a pen and paper as a better way to work that brain of yours.

DO IT!

You just got to keep on going! I’m no swimmer but I am persistent. I’m constantly fighting myself about the idea of being where I want to be.

I can see the end, I can see what I want and I know what I want.

However, I also see the present and I don’t entirely see how I am going to get to where I want to go or I don’t always see the results coming through.

But what I do know, is if I continue to push, continue to step it up, to bounce back, to fight harder, I will get there… I will get there.

No matter what comes my way, I need to adjust, I need to embrace and I need to conquer any hindrance. If I fail, I shall try again.

Regardless – I will learn and pivot and go after my goals with a new perspective!

SO CAN YOU!

My challenge to you today is to challenge your fears, be willing to grow and just see what you are really capable of!

 “Success is liking yourself, liking what you do and liking how you do it.” — Maya Angelou

And whenever something gets in the way, hinders you and creates a setback. No matter what…

JUST KEEP SWIMMING
