Make a Change To Get Better

Get better in order to become the new blue shiny diamond that represents your new you

Get better in order to become the new blue shiny diamond that represents your new you

I was talking to my Dad the other day and he said he’s done stupid things before. I told him I had too and that everyone does from time to time. So it happens and all we can do from a “getting better” perspective is to get better and learn from the experience. As long as we do that we are getting better.

Keep in mind doing the right thing and the thing that makes us grow isn’t usually the easiest thing to do. But with practice it will become easier because [continue reading…]

We live in a world of vibrations

We live in a world of vibrations

Additional real life stories to bring home the teachings of vibrations of which we all have, project, and receive. The question is do we tune into the frequencies of others? And the answer can be quite complex, but generally speaking we do in cases having to do with people we love.

It happens to everyone to some extent. [continue reading…]

The Gift in Giving is Good

Give to enjoy having done so

Give to enjoy having done so

I had a rather odd thing happen the other night, but turned it into an opportunity to give, which is good. My family decided to go out to dinner to a very nice buffet (sounds like an oxymoron) because truth be known, most buffets aren’t that great. Anyway, image there is one that is very good and I can say that because we ate there at $30 per meal and the line to wait to be seated was about an hour long.

We invited one of our children’s friends to join us and strategized how to beat or minimize the 1 hour wait by having a few people of which one was me arrive fifteen minutes before they open and do the waiting for everyone else. So we finally made it to the cashier and it wasn’t really welcomed that all of our party wasn’t there and I wanted to pay for them so they could join us upon arrival, but we got it worked out by the grace of G-d anyway.

There was just one little catch, [continue reading…]

Work Your Dream Goals Everyday

Dreams and goals are meant to be shared

There is beauty within us all, especially when we work towards something special to us

Everyday folks, that’s how often I work on my dream. When you hit your passion and you’re excited about where you’re going and what you’re creating, it doesn’t make any sense but to work every day on it. If fact, you would never even think about not working it every day. It drives you and you drive it. Total energy from where you never knew you had it. Keep your dream alive.

You see, what I’ve done is created a habit of working on my dream that’s an everyday occurrence, just like brushing my teeth, and the great thing is you can do that too. Create a life (change for the better) habit in just 30 days. It’s been determined that the previously thought 21 days isn’t long enough based on testing done by NASA. [continue reading…]

I’m Happy or is it tacky?

Happy or Tacky

Click Here to view video, it’s great!

If there’s one thing that tends to help many people including myself in shifting negative feelings over to the positive, music can often help a lot. When I saw the tacky video by Weird Al Yankovic (of which I’ve been a fan of for years), I wasn’t feeling bad or down, but it still lifted my spirits and created a good laugh or two.

Hopefully you already know how important happiness plays in our lives. It’s instrumental in leading a healthy life and it can be difficult to work with or communicate to others (or yourself) when they are unhappy. So if you’re happy most of the day, then what you’re doing is working and I suggest you keep doing it. If not however, take some time daily to work on finding ways to reverse the path of unhappiness that you experience so you can begin to enjoy your life more fully.

Enjoy Al’s video, be happy, and I’ll talk to you again soon,

It’s not a Race, it’s a Challenge

We've got a challenge, but we've got to get on with it!

We’ve got a challenge, but we’ve got to get on with it!


So what’s the challenge? The challenge is what it is you’re trying to accomplish. To be more specific, it’s your goal, your dreams. I make this distinction because it is so important and to take it one step further, it’s your big audacious dream and goal. If it weren’t, then there wouldn’t be much of a journey. In fact, we might call it a stroll.

Journey implies that you’re going somewhere that is beyond the end of your block. It gives you a long enough destination to be able to run, walk, stop, slow down, speed up, start again and so on. My point is don’t turn your journey into a race. Make it a challenge instead, that you’re committed to accomplishing regardless how long and how hard it takes to achieve.

Overcome Excuses – William Mitchell Does

I just finished reading chapter 4 from the book “Dance Until It Rains” and I was introduced to a man named William Mitchell of which I had not heard of before. I’m not going to explain his story because it’s done well enough in the book and at the following video. I do recommend you check it out. What a tremendous story that will give you hope and inspiration. Enjoy.

Every Day and in Every Way

Where Do You Want To Go?

One of my mentors, Vic Johnson shared during his Champions Club Marvelous Monday meeting the quote “Every Day and In Every Way I’m Getting Better and Better”, originally written by Emile Coue. I pondered that thought for a while and realized that I follow this motto every day by habit.

It’s because I read from a positive self-improvement book and listen to self-improvement trainings every day. I rarely if ever miss a day to grow and get better. You probably already know this but, you’re either growing or falling behind (shrinking) because one thing’s for sure and that is, everything’s changing. In our world everything is changing, nothing stays constant. [continue reading…]

Be Happy

Being Happy is a choice

Being Happy Is A Choice

Being happy can be a challenge sometimes, I get it, but I learned a bit of a new perspective on what being happy can achieve by having recently read a story from Chicken Soup For the Soul book about a person who everywhere he went said a complimentary gesture to everyone he met. I’ve been saying hello and smiling to nearly everyone I’ve met for many years so this kind of action isn’t that foreign to me.

The interesting thing that was talked about in the book is the affect doing so has on others and how it can be passed along to others like a domino effect and result in perhaps a thousand people being positively touched because of the acts of kindness that you implement in your daily activities.

Find your dream and follow it

Find your dream and follow it

Which Path Should I Take To Reach My Dream?

Well I’ve hit the middle of life’s road at age 49 and I wondered, “Is what I’m doing today what I was meant to do?” And even though I have few regrets with where I’m at, I have to be honest with myself because when you lie to yourself, you know you’re doing it.

However, the bottom line is trying to determine what putting your time, energy and effort into that’s worthy of you, isn’t an easy task. It takes a lot of self-reflecting, which means a lot of thought. But the good news if you work at becoming better, reading the books and listening to the self-improvement teachings, you’ll eventually figure things out. [continue reading…]
