OXYGEN

 Oxygen

Let’s think about oxygen. We all need it. Deprive yourself of it for a few minutes and you’ll be desperate for it.

From another point of view, consider this ...
What gives you oxygen? In other words, what inspires you?

Popular motivational books tell us this is our ONE dominate passion. Some call it “our driving force in life.”

I’ve identified my oxygen. It is writing and podcasting. When I first started writing I feared that I would someday run out of ideas and then what?

That has not been the case. It seems one idea leads me to the next, and the next, and ten more after that.

My long-time college friend Harold once told me to slow down in working on my book ideas. He felt I had too many going at once.

This I know ... You will lead a really fulfilling life once you find out what and where your oxygen comes from. And when you do, it just might drive you to places you never dreamed of going.

ARE YOU CONVINCED YOU CAN DO IT?

Are You Convinced You Can Do It? 

Harvey Mackay, author of Swim with the Sharks once said this.

The hardest sale 

you’ll ever make 

is to yourself.

Once you’re convinced 

you can do it,

you can.

What have you done once you convinced yourself you could?

Businesses have been launched.
Political offices have been earned.
Large bank accounts have grown even larger.
The big LEAP has happened because someone screwed their courage to the sticking place and made the leap.

It starts with conviction that the THING can be done by YOU! 

Well then ... GO DO IT!

See Something - Say Something

 See Something – Say Something 

I’m a big believer in this concept.

If you see something 

beautiful in someone, 

speak it.   ~Ruthie Lindsey

It’s a reminder for all of us to give roses to people while they live, not after they are gone.

In a put-down world such as we live in, most people live put-down lives. I say 

“Build each other up.

Pay the compliment now.

Give kudos in the moment.”

Today's Accomplishment

 Today’s Accomplishment

Every day, when we awaken, we are faced with abundant opportunities. And what are we going to do with those opportunities?

Love this ponderable from poet Mary Oliver.

I wonder what it is

I will accomplish today?

Get Naked

 Get Naked 

Have you ever been naked in public? For most of us it’s no fun.

I’ve had a few dreams of running naked or in my underwear. So glad when I awakened.

Here’s the good side of getting naked, thanks to Seth Godin and his book

What to Do when it’s Your Turn

Get naked.
We become naked when we say ...
~I made this.
~It’s my fault.
~It was my idea.
~I decided to do it.
~No place to hide is the only place to be.

If it’s worth doing, it’s worth doing naked, alone, boldly.
