MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

TRANSFORMATION

Transformation is never easy. But never is anything worth being done. Transformation illuminates the soul, opens the heart, saturates the mind, "reconnects" your "being" as you "become". More. Better. Different. Changed. Awakened. Transformed. From the inside out. It will show. You will know. You will be more "you" than ever before. And that is beautiful. Wonderful. Glorious. Magnificent. Amazing. Blessed. You are. By Him. Give thanks and embrace the change, the challenge, the "coming". It will be worth it. You'll see. Believe. Trust the process. Transform.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LOOK FORWARD

“Change is good.” So said someone dear to me today. And they are 100% right. Change IS good. And it IS time for change.

Time to change not just the way we look, but HOW we look and WHY. Time to change the mindsets that “guide” and “drive” us. Time to change the angle of perception we have on and in the world. Time to change the very nature and core of our health and wellbeing.

Change is not always instant and my mindsets have been challenged as I’ve asked myself some hard questions over the last few weeks. Everything though, ultimately comes together, to create something that sometimes seems “overnight”.

The wonderings, pondering, musings, have all allowed the door to the past to be completely shut, all the locks changed and the keys thrown over cliffs no one would dare venture over to get. And that’s the way it SHOULD be. Because life is all about living it FORWARD.

There is so much to look forward TO. Mind refreshed and being renewed. Eyes “turning” and being refocused. Soul quieter and being restored. Prepared and making changes, moving life FORWARD.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ACTS OF KINDNESS

It doesn’t take much – a smile, a hug, a few words of encouragement – to make a difference. You never know just what they might do, how significant such a small gesture might be to a soul in pain or struggling. Sometimes one small act of kindness, conscious or not, can change the course of another’s life – change their perspective, the words going over in their mind that they tell themselves, and in turn, their beliefs about themselves that from their actions stem.

We are not alone in this world. We are surrounded by billions of other souls, none any less significant or less precious than our own. We might never know the majority of them, never come into contact with multitudes, but we can also never UNDERestimate the effect we can make, even on those we will never physically meet – the words they read online or in print, the images they see that imprint into their psyche, the way everything comes together to form their reality of themselves.

No matter WHO you are - your “status” in life through power and position, the experiences that shaped you and created the person you are today – you can make a difference in someone ELSE’S life. All of us can. Just by opening our eyes to our hearts and understanding that even if one smiles does not mean there is not pain in their soul, because one laughs does not mean that the sound of tears does not echo louder inside them, when one extends a helping hand does not mean that they know how to deal with what is going on in their own life.

By realizing this, we can start to see how one small act of kindness every day can help not only others, but also OURSELVES. When you are in pain and give a smile you do not feel because you cannot bear to see another in pain can slowly warm your heart. Laughing with another even when you want to cry can slowly ease the burden of your tears. Extending a hand to help another in need can slowly give a glow that spreads through your soul, knowing that everything in time and for a purpose.

By changing something we might not even think we changed, we CAN make a difference. Making a difference in the life of another can ripple effect into the lives of those we do not even know, spread further than we could ever fathom, and start a chain reaction that changes more than we might possibly imagine. ONE small act of kindness might not change the world, but it is a START, for it starts with US, and when we change OURSELVES, we have the power to change ANYthing.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

SHADOW AND LIGHT

Shadows are a natural accompaniment to light. They are cast under whatever stands in the light and sometimes over as well. In the same way that the Devil tries to tempt you and lead you astray when God blesses you and life seems to be going better than ever, shadows seek to cast darkness over any light shining so brightly because they cannot bear to see such glory and would rather see it smothered.

It is simply the way it is and will never change. Those who are doing nothing with their lives will always sit back and criticize those who are standing up and stepping out and taking the risk of pursuing their dreams or calling. Those who are waiting for someone to do something that they can emulate through plagiarism will always try to topple those who shoulders whom they seek their own greatness from.

There are shadows and light in every soul. Every day they fight with one another to see which will come out triumphant. Remember that the shadows in your soul can help give strength to your light and make it that much brighter. Never underestimate the power of the synchronicity of having your soul being complete in working together and understand that without the darkness there would be no light.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

NO SHORTCUTS

Life is TOUGH. It HURTS. It lets you achieve the pinnacle of “success” and then it kicks you down a cliffside faster than you can think. That’s life. Get used to it.

Get used to it. But DON’T accept it. DON’T let it beat you so much that you give up trying altogether. Don’t let it take away the ESSENCE of you and the spark that keeps you going and burning bright for others to see.

Life is tough BECAUSE it is PREPARING you. For what is to COME. It has to make sure that the you that eventually reaches the destination intended is a you that can LIVE there. It has to make sure that you have what it TAKES to live the life you want and achieve the dreams in your heart. It has to make sure that you’re STRONG enough to look fear in the face and release courage despite any and all odds.

The journey may be long AND hard. But without the journey the destination would not hold as much MEANING. It would not be APPRECIATED for the sacrifices required and the work that it took to get there. It would not see a soul that had been tested by fire and trialled through destruction come out as a “brand new” being capable of the ultimate AWARENESS of self and its world. It would not see a soul who understands that the true desires and dreams of the heart are worth EVERYTHING endured to get there.

Shortcuts create DEFECTS. Life wants to make sure that there are no defects in the “end creation” that steps into its final place of realized PERFECTION. It wants to make sure that the soul that holds its dreams in the palm of its hand is one who KNOWS the explicit emotion of having experienced the world through more than a looking glass. It wants that soul to see the DUALITY in everything and understand just what it takes to stand on the top of the world and look out over it. It wants a soul who knows its darkness and light and CHOOSES to live its truth in light.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

SOUL DANCE

You know what: Life is short. TOO short NOT to chase your heart or take the risk on something or someone you can’t stop thinking about. Who cares what the world might think? It's YOUR heart, your happiness, your future, your POTENTIAL. So let loose your soul to dance in the rain and have companion souls join you, beside you or to their own tune, each of you creating a beautiful melody no one but those who “see” might understand.

If you want it, SAY so. Forget timidity or fear. Put aside "what ifs" and "buts" and set yourself out there where you can be SEEN. Yes, you might be vulnerable, but in vulnerability you open yourself up to an abundance of blessings you might never have thought could be.

You want to let your soul dance? Then LET it dance. And pull those you wish to dance with alongside you, feel the magic in the moment and make it last a lifetime not forgotten. Hold onto the moments granted, for you know not when they might be gifted again.

Life is too short to be spent in hesitation, wondering, wanting but never doing. Before you know it the moment could be gone and you never know if with it with it your chance for something great or “once in a lifetime”. So, LISTEN to your heart. OPEN up your soul and set it free to DANCE throughout your life with a smile in its step and a glow that spreads light wherever it reaches, rippling through life making the difference that only YOU can make.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

I AM ENOUGH

The world will always entertain a thought process that seeks to enslave you, to try causing you to think that you need something or someone to “complete” you, wanting you to be reliant on others to survive, searching to capture souls to manipulate. But it is wrong, because you do NOT need anything or anyone else to be COMPLETE, and life strives to prove that by throwing obstacles in your way to get you to dig deep WITHIN YOURSELF, to bring forth the TRUE spirit of you.

Those who are not strong enough will not withstand the pressure, but those who are, even if they might never have thought it, will discover in such times their true STRENGTH and learn that they ARE ENOUGH. They will know that they are enough on their OWN, that they CAN stand alone and be ok, that standing alone IS ok, even if the world frowns upon it and seeks to take away their independence and freedom, to trap them in a cage it hopes they will settle in.

I AM ENOUGH on my own. I do NOT need anything or anyone else to complete me. I KNOW who and what I am and I am OK with that. I am COMFORTABLE in my own skin and need no one’s reassurance to stay that way. I am my OWN person, independent and free-spirited, always have been and always will be. I know what I want and will not accept anything LESS than I DESERVE. I CHOOSE to follow a path I cut for myself, whether the world “approves” or not, no matter how “alone” I may be on it.

That said I can WELCOME the presence of another, understanding that life seeks to create bonds between souls that will only STRENGTHEN who they are, both as individuals and together, bringing together like-minded souls who ADD a depth and richness to the other’s life that they cannot give themselves. This does not mean I am incomplete alone, only that I accept there ARE some things I can never give or experience by isolating myself.

I CAN now allow another into my world because I KNOW WHO I AM. Not everyone will be allowed in, rare few indeed, but those few will always be treasured for the INVALUABLE GIFTS they are, the BLESSINGS I realize He is bestowing on me. We may be able to be complete on our own, but we were not meant to WALK alone, and I know that now. I am enough on my own, but with another I can become so much MORE, as can they, desiring and seeking to unfold each soul to its full and complete potential.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

THE PATHS UNINTENDED

Sometimes talking with someone new can open up new perspectives, give new thought and ideas, offer new options. It may be merely by chance such an interaction, but it can have more effect than you know as what has been discussed mulls over in your mind. Where once logic ruled emotions had been allowed to take more control and now both are trying to work together to decide the best course of action, even as at the end of the day, instinct and “listening to your gut” will be the final determinant.

We all have times when we lose our way and even what had not so long ago been the surest of paths in front of us becomes blurry with doubt. Yet we must KEEP going, for there is no stopping. There can be no stopping, for if we rest we might get caught up in the fog and wander from all reason entirely.

Yet despite all reason, sometimes we stop. We want to rest. We want to close our eyes and seek comfort in that outside our realm. Sometimes it helps calm the storm and bring clearer vision. Sometimes it only exacerbates the situation and we find ourselves caught in the world we disappeared into when we “wake” again.

But there is hope. There is ALWAYS hope. No matter how dark the darkness, how unsure your footing on the path, whether there even IS a path to follow, you move. And in the moving you either find the path or create a NEW one.

Creating a new path, one not “foreseen” before you began your journey, is not all bad. Sometimes not all roads are meant to be traveled and in the “crossroads” of our “blindness” we unerringly come to the one that will start a new chapter in our life’s journey. A chapter that will force more growth, but in the doing open up different opportunities and viewpoints that we might not have considered or seen before.

Everything for a reason, so they say. Perhaps. Or maybe there is no “end” and the journey is the “creation”, for it is the journey where we struggle and learn and grow and evolve into something more than we were. EMBRACE the process. Be grateful that you are still alive to travel. Welcome the unexpected companions you come across along the way, whether they are meant to walk with you for mere minutes or far longer. You have nothing to lose, so let instinct guide you.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

RISE UP

The night has passed in its darkness and all things hidden suddenly alight within it, words said and emotions wrought as a soul grasps itself together yet one more time. But yes, the night has PASSED and is no more. In that should be the same of what transpired within it: Let gone and let go and given to Him, for some things our soul should not bear if we want to stand unencumbered by chains of any kind, even those we might have once placed upon ourselves.

The day dawns, the fingers of light reaching across the sky reaching for you, to remind you that light pushes AWAY darkness and a NEW day has begun. A new day and a new time, giving you another opportunity to start fresh and claim it as your own, your life to walk forward in His grace and share YOUR light with the world.

As we grow in darkness, so too do we grow in light, and all that occurs in darkness will eventually be revealed in the light. Let not the darkness be the strength creeping in your soul, but take from it iron strength and indomitable will to mesh with the positive energy and healing love of the light.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

IN YOU

LIFE is a battlefield. It is an endless WAR - a time of conflict and CHANGE. Of REVOLUTION rising – in your soul, heart, and mind. Of CHALLENGE – of everything you are and do and can BE.

Life is full of darkness. It is dirty and dusty and can wear on a soul. It can shut down a heart, create despair in a mind, destroy a man so completely that they want to die and disappear from the world altogether. This is the ugly side of war - of HUMANITY.

Yet in the midst of war there is immense BEAUTY. There can be seen acts of GREATNESS – often overlooked and unknown, but by no means less great. There dwells HOPE in the hearts of man – for the future, the PROMISE that it holds and the wonder that await you.

There lies in YOUR soul something more PRECIOUS than anything in the world. It is STRONGER than anything life can - and will try to - throw at you, something that is DEEPER than what can be SEEN. It is something that is so much a PART of you that no matter WHAT happens, it canNOT be taken from you – even if others THINK they have broken you down so much, caused so much pain and destruction that it looks like you will never rise again, it is STILL there, DRIVING you to survive, so that you can LIVE.

That something in your soul is greater than LIFE itself. It is more POWERFUL than HOPE. It is more beautiful than LOVE. It is on par to FAITH, something bigger than anything you can fathom. It is a part of GOD dwelling inside us – we only need to REALIZE it, RECOGNIZE it, and ACKNOWLEDGE it. He is ALWAYS there – through EVERYTHING, just waiting for you to ALLOW yourself to walk ALONGSIDE Him in your journey through this life, so that He can GUIDE you through the minefields and rubble of the world.

He is IN your life, your SOUL, whether you are aware of it or not. He is ALWAYS there, waiting patiently outside that closed door to your HEART. He WANTS to HELP you, to see you THROUGH the battlefield of life. Will you LET Him?

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BRAVER, STRONGER, SMARTER

All of us have a GREAT capacity for courage and strength and intelligence. We might not think it, but we DO.

When you are going through immense change and everything in your life is topsy-turvy, upside down and back-to-front, and you keep GOING, head down, surging FORWARD through it all that is COURAGE. When your life changes so dramatically that tragedy besets you at almost every turn and you don’t know when the flames of destruction and pain will end, but you hold your head high and continue walking THROUGH the fire that is STRENGTH. When you have no idea what direction your life is headed but, coupled with what you know and common-sense, trust your instinct to lead you true that is INTELLIGENCE.

There is MORE within us than we could ever have possibly imagined. Some of us have just not yet had the life experience that causes us to draw deep within us to what we might have thought we never had. Those of us that have, whilst know the pain and suffering and heartache of such times, understand the NEED for them, their NECESSITY for personal GROWTH, and in TRULY knowing the desires hidden deep inside our SOUL.

When you see and ACCEPT those desires, you are called upon yet again to use that courage to step out AFTER your dreams, your strength to withstand any OBSTACLES that might want to hold you back, and the intelligence to know what to do when, so that you can ACHIEVE your dreams and see them made REALITY. Life is a winding path and you never know which way it can turn, so we do the BEST with what we have as we strive to become the BEST that we can possibly BE.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LIGHT AND DARKNESS

The most brilliant lights shine in the deepest darkness. The greatest illumination occurs in the complete absence of light. The brightest stars would not be seen if not for the darkness they are surrounded by.

In the same manner, PEOPLE cannot shine without the darkness they experience. They cannot grow without the pain suffered. They cannot know true happiness without knowing the deepest despair. They cannot fully appreciate life in all its beauty and glory without having fallen so far that they know the ugliness and depravity that balances this world.

The greatest people that you know have been through the most in life. You might not always know it, but those with discernment will sense it in their soul. The most beautiful people have the kindest hearts, even if they seem untouchable and distant. The kindest hearts come from having experienced the deepest heartache and never wanting another to suffer through the same or similar experience. Those experiences create in one an understanding, instill empathy for the lost, and allow one to grow into more than they are.

The greatest people that you know have overcome the most adversity. They have faced unspoken tragedy. They have dealt with destruction on a level they would never wish you to know personally. They are great because they have known all that and are still here. They have been broken and yet remain intact. They have been destroyed so much that they have been brought to their knees and yet they stand before you. They stand before you, because in those times, they grew in strength and courage and passion and never failed to hold tight to faith and hope and belief, even if for a time they might have felt like there was nothing left to cling to.

The most brilliant lights shine in the deepest darkness. The brightest stars are only so bright BECAUSE of the darkness.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

YOU ARE HERE FOR A REASON

Whether by design or circumstance of choice, you are where you are right now for a REASON. You may be happy with where you are or you may NOT be. You may be wondering what twist of fate brought you here, to this place in this time, what reasoning could possibly have for you here. There is a reason for EVERYthing that happens in our lives and this is no different. You are where you are right now for a REASON.

Yes, it might be hard, it might be tough, it might be everything you never wanted to know or ever experience going on all at once right now, baffling you, angering you, causing feelings of fear and resentment. You might not know how to handle the situation, frustrated by your lack of knowledge and expertise, ashamed of your shortcomings, wanting to do nothing but run and hide, waiting until it is over and safe to come out from the storm.

But storms are not sent to be afraid of and hidden from. They are sent to be FACED and challenged head on, beckoning your finger to let it know to give all its got, do its worst, knowing that if you don’t already know where it is, you will FIND the courage and the strength to fight back and DEFEAT it. The hard pummelling of the rain to wear you down, the louder-than-it-should-be thunder booming to try and terrify you, the hailstones falling to bruise your body, you WILL find a way to SURVIVE.

And when the storm clears and the sun’s light starts to peek through the clouds that do not want to seem to budge, spreading over your smudged face and war-torn eyes, they will shine over a soul that has been changed and now sees the world through different eyes, knowing with confidence what they are capable of, a new inner spark glowing from the depths of those eyes, ready and willing to face whatever comes next. By accepting, facing, and embracing the storm that soul has GROWN, one step closer its destiny.

So, see that you are where you are right now for a reason. Whether it is a lesson to be learned, a skill to be mastered, or strength to be found, everything transpires together to make the MOST of the now, to make you INTO the person that you are MEANT to be. You might not want to be where you are now, but simply desiring to be elsewhere will NOT help you. If you want to be somewhere else, you must stand and fight through the now to get to where you want to go. So, do it, taking everything you can from the now with you.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

OTHER SIDE OF FEAR

There is a “glass wall” in our lives: One side is “safe”, our “comfort zone”; the other side beckons of the “unknown” and often that which we “fear”. So sad that so most will never move from the former side of that invisible wall. But those that say “screw it” and take that step of faith to move past it will be the ones that live a life worth telling, a story with lessons learnt through experience, and a testimony that will help enhance the lives of those who hear and see it.

As a child we have no “fear”. Yet somewhere along the way so many become “conditioned” to the world’s way of thinking or have no faith, and fear enters their life. Fear of anything and everything, nothing more trivial than another. Those few who truly have “no fear” are few indeed, and if they were honest with themselves, they will know that deep down there are fears that even they cannot acknowledge to themselves. Yet, there might truly be no fear, coming from a deep seated faith in something bigger and greater than anyone can or will ever understand. And that faith is what “allows” them to move from the “comfort zone” to the “other side of fear” and let them truly live.

There is FREEDOM in “fearing” but getting out there and doing it anyway. There is an exhilaration in taking risks, a thrill that cannot be experienced by being “safe”, a real joy in letting your spirit “fly” and embracing the “moments” that come, giving “over” to the childlike innocence and curiosity to explore life and all it has to offer.

Sometimes those living on the other side of fear look at those “inside” the “safety” of the “glasshouse” and wonder how they can live thus, desiring to see them step “through” the portal into the “real” world they exist in so that they too can truly know what it is like to LIVE. There is life on one side of the glass wall, but those on the other side of that wall are ALIVE with the life that only freedom can give.

You have a choice: Stay inside your comfort zone or get OUT of it. If you’ve been on both sides, then you know the only “logical” choice. Do you want to merely survive, or do you want to experience life in all the wonder and magnificence that it SHOULD be lived in? Think about it. “Evolution” and “becoming” is all about moving from strength to strength, one height to another, touching one star and then another and another, falling and rising, loving and losing and rediscovering new life, and none of that can be found INSIDE a “comfort zone”. Life is meant to be lived OUTSIDE the boundary of “should”, so why not let yourself smash that glass wall and “understand”!

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

THE POWER OF YOUR SOUL

There is GREAT POWER in your soul. There is FAR MORE than you could ever possibly imagine hidden down in the depths of your soul. There is MAGIC WAITING to be released into the world and create the most wondrous experiences. There is such capacity FOR LOVE that we are so often not aware of until someone awakens in us the secret desire for it.

Even when a soul has suffered the greatest tragedies and been through the most terrible destruction, it has the power to pick itself UP and see the BEAUTY in life, that they are still ALIVE and have LEARNT so much, know the extent to which they can fall and not let themselves be completely destroyed, still having FORGIVENESS in their heart to let go and KEEP GOING.

There is MORE POWER in your soul than you can ever dream of. There are more DREAMS in your soul than you will ever know of, just waiting for the right time, the right moment, the right person to creep inside your heart and bring about their discovery. There is so much POTENTIAL in your soul, that when you have been through what you have and known what you do, loved the ones who brought your world crashing down around you, and then found your soul carried gently in the arms of one who seeks to protect you, you allow it to be RELEASED, given room to GROW and BLOSSOM.

ALWAYS be grateful, thankful for the people in your life, especially those of the past who have taught you so much and caused so much pain, for withOUT that your soul would never have been opened to the WONDER that is WAITING for you, the FREEDOM of the life you were MEANT to live and love, and the one who you now find walking BESIDE you.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

STRONGER THAN YOU THINK

What you’re going through now – God didn’t give it to you because He knew you couldn’t handle it; He gave it to you because He knew you COULD. He would NEVER have given you something He knew was NOT in your capability to handle, if the strength you needed was not already inside you just waiting to be found and used.

Sometimes we are given struggles so that we might FIND our strength and realize that we had it all along. Sometimes those struggles are given to DEVELOP the strength dormant in us, the strength we never might have thought we had; or maybe the strength we were not sure we wanted to see. Sometimes our struggles only make us realize just WHAT we have within us.

What faces you might seem daunting. You might not be able to share it with another soul, or only one other, and it is tearing you apart – such are the tests of life, the trials that “make us” when we REFUSE to break. Know that whatever the circumstances, He KNOWS you ARE strong enough – you might just have to get down on your knees and cry out for it, trusting that He will “give” it.

When life delivers such a blow, crippling your soul so that you feel like darkness is your only escape route, wanting to run and hide from the world for a time or maybe forever, understand and take some comfort, hard as it might seem amidst the pain, that though it is not a way YOU would have chosen, you are “given” the life you lead BECAUSE you are strong ENOUGH to live it.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

TRY

When it seems the bleakest, the night the darkest, hope all but there, that’s when you need to try the HARDEST. When you have nothing to hold onto but your faith and the warmth of another hand wrapped tightly around your own, you can find the strength to keep going, to hang on, to try at least one more time.

You never know what one more effort might bring. You might know the pain and suffering that will surely ensue, but your soul also knows the joy and victory that comes with success, the price of trying that one more time. The time you might wonder why and feel is not worth it, because every other time has given the same outcome, but you never know when that outcome will suddenly CHANGE and your world will be as it should be.

One more time. One more effort. One more battle. One more day. ONE MORE. All it takes is a little faith and heart and hope and the willingness to give it that one last chance. YOUR last chance. For if you do not take it, you might forever lose what it is you have spent so long fighting for, and you can never do that, can never give up your heart and soul because you might be tired. You would never forgive yourself.

That one last time could be the difference between the ultimate sorrow and the most wondrous happiness. It could be the turning point between what was once “impossible” and what will forever thus be possible. It could be the start of your future in the realm of your dreams, leaving the past and its heartache behind you for good. It could be EVERYthing, mean everything, so you HAVE to try.

TRY. As hard as you can. Until it hurts so much your tears bleed. Until you are so exhausted you don’t know how you can still stand. Until the last breath whispers from your lungs. No matter what, you try and give it ALL you’ve got. Because this is YOUR life, and in the end, YOU must live with the decisions you make and the consequences of them.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE

Life is full of CHALLENGES. It is full of OBSTACLES. It is full of DISBELIEVERS. It is full of OPPOSITION. For every supporter you have, there is a hater. For every beautiful moment in time, there is a memory that crushes your soul. For every mountain climbed, there is a canyon to cross. For every star that is born and rises, there is another that falls from the heavens and dies in a blinding flash of light.

Do not allow the negatives in life to outweigh the POSITIVES. Do not let the moments of sadness overcome the incredible periods of HAPPINESS. Do not let the challenges prevent you from living life COMPLETELY.

LOVE life, no matter what happens. Love what you DO. Love the fact that every day is a NEW chance to start OVER. Love those who love you and never let a moment go by that is opportunity to let them KNOW how much they mean to you.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE. COMPLETELY.

© Rosie Chee

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

A SINGLE DREAM

It’s not always the big things that matter. It’s not always “success”. Most times it’s the LITTLE things.

It’s the SINGLE dream in your soul – the one that matters more than anything else ever has or will. It’s that single dream that “carries” you through and makes each day worth waking up for. It’s that single dream that “sets” your footsteps for that day. It’s that single dream that you spend your life striving “for”.

Dreams are what keep us ALIVE. They give our SOUL something to cling to in the storm. They give us HOPE for tomorrow. They fuel the FAITH that everything will be “ok” in the end. Dreams are far more POWERFUL than any reality we might find ourselves in because they let us “wander”.

A SINGLE dream can spark a multitude of thoughts. A multitude of thoughts can create unlimited actions. Unlimited actions can make an infinite difference in not JUST your life. An infinite difference can have an effect beyond even the WILDEST imagining. The wildest imagining BEGINS with a single dream.

Dream a single dream but do not STOP there. Dream until you have NO more breath. Watch your dreams spark dreams and life into OTHER souls. Make a DIFFERENCE. BE the difference.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

HERE NOW WITH THE POWER

You are NOT the person you were yesterday. You are not YET the person you will be tomorrow. You are here NOW, today, part of the old, to become the new, and have the power to CHOOSE what you will take with you from the past into your future.

You are HUMAN. You’ve made mistakes. You’ve got regrets. Welcome to life. The beauty of it is that you are not defined by your mistakes or regrets. You can move past those and embrace the promises and opportunities waiting for you to step INTO.

TODAY is up to you. Tomorrow today will become part of your past. It will be one step closer or one step further from where you want to be and the person you were meant to be. The choices you make, the memories you hold onto in your heart, the lessons you bring with you from the past, the experiences you allow to “shape” you, WILL mould you for tomorrow. Therefore, be wise in what you will and won’t allow, the battles you choose to fight and leave alone, the people you surround your heart and mind with, for it will all play part in the future.

You are what you ALLOW into your soul. You develop BECAUSE of your mistakes and regrets, the consequences that follow, the struggles that you battle. You want the darkness to ILLUMINATE the light, so that you come out BETTER than ever.

Your soul is the most PRECIOUS “thing” you have. It is your own and no one can make it into something YOU do not give permission for. Determine today WHO you want to be and filter in or out anything that has no role or purpose in that vision.
