SELF IMPROVEMENT AND MOTIVATION

There is no need to worry or strive. For you are able to intend and allow. You are so highly capable that you’d be stunned to see the full extent of what you can do. Unfortunately, most of that capability is smothered under your own doubts, fears and worries. Fortunately, you can crowd all those negative things out of your awareness. The way to do that is with a solid, specific, deeply meaningful intention. When each day begins, choose to focus on a clearly defined way in which you intend to make life better. Then, as the day goes along, allow yourself to make use of opportunities that arise for fulfilling that intention. Those opportunities will most certainly be there. You don’t have to strive or wish or struggle or connive. Simply have a clear, meaningful intention, and allow yourself to fulfill it. Intend, allow, and put your amazing capabilities to their highest use.

You can do more, and in fact you know you’ll enjoy doing more. You can give more, authentically, enthusiastically, and you know how great that feels. This world is filled with problems and pains, but that never has to get you down. For there’s always more you can do to make a positive difference, to transform those problems into opportunities and then into value. When you’ve done all you can, the amazing thing is this. You can rest for a little while, and then you can do more. As painful as the setbacks may be, they never have to be permanent. Because you can do more. As wonderful as any achievement may be, the satisfaction of achieving does not have to end. Because the great thing is, you can do more. Whether life gets you down or lifts you up, as long as you have life there is a readily accessible way forward if you’ll just remember it. You can do more.

There’s no need to add anxiety to your experience. Decide instead to enjoy the experience, to enjoy the moment, and let any hint of anxiety melt away. The positive way through whatever you’re going through is to treasure the opportunity to experience it. Enjoy your amazing ability to live life in an endless variety of situations. Don’t place unnecessary judgments on what you’re doing now. Just move ahead with it and put the best of yourself into it. Let go of any impulse to be resentful about what you might think you’re missing out on. You are not missing out on anything, for you’re immersed in the miraculous experience of life. Live life where you are because, after all, that is where you are. Enjoy the moment you’re in because, after all, it is the moment that’s always available for you to enjoy. Put the love, joy and passion of your life into your life at this very moment. You deserve to experience the best, and you deserve it right here and now.

The real power of gratitude comes not from merely saying you’re thankful, but from living your thankfulness. Now, and always, is when you do that.   Being thankful for your life means doing something beautiful and meaningful with it. It’s never too early or too late to start.  A life that taps into the awesome power of gratitude is a life that’s fully lived. Today is your opportunity to express your thanks by adding new substance, joy and meaning to life.  The way to truly give thanks is to live thanks. Remind yourself constantly how precious your life is, and live each day to give it the fulfillment it deserves.  Living your thankfulness opens your awareness to new possibilities. And in those new possibilities you’ll find even more ways to bring your thankfulness to life. In ways large and small, with all kinds of people, in every conceivable situation, live your thanks. Make the positive, affirming magic of gratitude an everyday part of your world.

How would you advise yourself if you were someone else? If you could stand back and look objectively at your own life for a few hours or a few days, would that change the way you live it? It’s easy to get so caught up in the challenges, dramas and emotions of your own immediate situation that you lose your sense of the bigger picture. So in your mind, step out of the box you’re in and look at your life from a new perspective. You’re likely to see valuable resources and opportunities that have been there all along, but that you had never noticed before. You may also notice habits, priorities, worries or compulsions that are just plain foolish. Put some distance between your demanding ego and your thinking mind. Give some truly objective consideration to all the assumptions you make and to all those things you do without even thinking twice. You are the world’s leading expert on you. Yet most of that expertise goes to waste because of all the knowledge of yourself that you’ve taken for g...

Think About Your Dreams As it happens, the average person talks to himself in a negative way. As much as 94 percent of your inner dialogue tends to be about the things you fear, your worries, the people you're angry at, your problems, your concerns and so on. You have to consciously keep your words, your inner dialogue, consistent with what you wish to accomplish. The Most Powerful Antidote Psychologists have proven that the words, "I can do it," are the antidote to the fear of failure that often holds you back from trying.
