WHO IS YOURS? 🤔

Truly, one of the greatest feelings is knowing someone is happy because of you. I certainly do my best to keep the beautiful love of my life happy. Margie deserves all the wonderful things I can come up with just for putting up with this crazy author.

Yet, everywhere I go I do my best to make people happy. My day job, the coffee shop, my mechanic. When I succeed, it always gives my heart a jolt of joy. The more people I give joy to, the more joy fills my heart as well.

How about you? Who have you made happy today? Who could you make happy? Feel free to share your story in the comments below.

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FOR EVERYONE! ⚠️

This is an important message for today’s world. We need to shift from placing blame, to creating solutions. They only way to do this is by working together. It can be simple to say, but I know it is not easy to do. Hurt, years of oppression, violence, and division have been going on since the dawn of man. How can we hope to reverse this trend?

If you listen to what you hear from politicians, world leaders and the media, it is as soon as we Conquer the opposition. That is a lie. The solution lies in forming mutual respect with the opposition. This requires both sides to admit the wrong they have done and pledge to work together to create a solution to prevent those wrongs from occurring in the future.

What does this have to do with you and I? Plenty. We cannot wait for world leaders and those running out country to remove their thinking apparatus from their sitting apparatus. That may never happen. We have to start with us. Work on eliminating our prejudices. At the very least, stop speaking hate and division and start thinking of solutions. Vote for those who do the same instead of those running on a ticket based on fear, blame and revenge. Most importantly, raise children who respect others and want to make a difference in the world.

It is not to late to save the world and the people who live in it. The change has to start with someone. Why not let it start with us and why not start now?

REMEMBER WHAT IS POSSIBLE 🌻

This may sound like something that could never happen. In today’s world of the division and hate perpetuated by media, this may sound like a fantasy. It is not. People who are different from each other not only can get together, but they should.

We learn so much more by expanding our horizons. We could learn a new way of cooking or a new recipe. We could discover a new type of music. All the things we learn could give us a new perspective on the world.

Appreciate those who are different from you today without judging them. Watch your world expand and grow.

PLEASE SHARE WITH US

What is something good that has happened to you today? Sharing positive stories with a negative world is like lighting a candle in a dark room. Not only does each one help, but each one makes it a little brighter.

So please share something good that happened to you this weekend with all of us. 😃

WHO WILL YOU BE WITH?

A very important thought for the weekend. This is the time when most of us choose who we will be surrounded by. Make sure, as much as you are able, that those people are of a positive and uplifting energy. Think of who makes you feel better by just being around them.

If you would like, feel free to share someone who improves your life just by being in it, and how they do so in the comments below.

A TACO MEDITATION 🧘‍♂️

Here was a video I filmed for my YouTube channel 5 years ago! You can hear Margie laugh. You can see that I am not good at keeping things to 99 seconds! Most of all, you will discover what a taco meditation is and how you can use it in your own life.

THRIVE THURSDAY! 🥳

It is time to celebrate what is working in your life. It can often feel like the whole world is upside down, but there is always something that is working. Your entire life may feel like a dumpster fire, but maybe your dog likes you? You certainly have a way of reading these inspiring words. That means you either have a working computer, phone or access to one of those.

We can find ourselves focused on what is not working in our lives in an attempt to fix it. That is not entirely bad. What we must caution ourselves on, is staring at the cracks and missing the rest of the wall. In other words, seeing the problems in our life without appreciating what is working. Today, take a moment to acknowledge and give thanks for all that is right in your life. Share some with the rest of us if you feel so inspired.

SHIFT YOUR FOCUS 👀

My fourth book will be dedicated to taking you from a life of striving, to one of thriving. As we all wait for the release of this future bestseller, I wanted to get you a tip many of us skip over.

In our busy working world, we can become so focused on what we have to ‘do’ and ‘overcome’ that we forget to give attention to what we want to ‘be’and who we want to ‘become’. Which is why we are doing and overcoming those things in the first place.

Today, take a few minutes to focus on the goals and dreams you are working for. It will not only strengthen your drive, but refresh your spirit. It will also give you a moments break from all of the challenges.

MOTIVATION THAT GOES WITH YOU!😃

WEEKEND REMINDER 🤔

Just a quick reminder that even on the weekend, we must be aware of how we are thinking and the attitude we are bringing to life. It can be all too easy to slip into negative habits. Make sure to keep your mind and body sharp, even on the weekend.
