MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

BE STRONGER

There is strength and then there is STRENGTH. One is seen and one is DONE. True strength is not always seen but exists despite anonymity, persevering because the one who bears it KNOWS and that is all that truly matters.

There are days when you wake and wonder what and why. There are moments and events and circumstances where understanding eludes you. Regardless, “strength” keeps going, keeps moving forward, no matter the pace, because it trusts in something bigger than can be seen.

Every day holds potential for GROWTH. Everything is “designed” to make us stronger and better equipped to “deal” with whatever may come. Accept that, embrace it, and just keep on doing “you” the way it is “right” in your soul.

True strength needs no recognition, even as it empowers and inspires, albeit not always even knowing it. Regardless of anything external, know yourself and be at peace with it, letting your life be your “example” and your actions be your “words”.

2012 | Day 245: LIFE

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

Life is what you MAKE of it. You can just be in it or LIVE in it.

Have the PATIENCE and COURAGE to PERSEVERE through the FRUSTRATION of life’s CHALLENGES. Find the JOY and HOPE through the SUFFERING, remembering your ultimate DREAM even when you are in PAIN. Take PRIDE in how you live and live with a PASSION and DETERMINATION to always live life on YOUR terms. Have FAITH and anticipate HAPPINESS, for it lies in wait out there for you. Have CONFIDENCE and TRUST that even in the SILENCE God has your BEST interests at heart, working FOR you as much as you are in fulfilling the BEAUTY and FIERCENESS of the VISION in your heart. There is GOODNESS to be found when your eyes are OPEN to it, so take PLEASURE and SATISFACTION in the gifts of FRIENDSHIP and blessings that are given you.

Life is a WONDERFUL place. Live in AWE and watch the world UNFOLD before you.

2012 | Day 244: I WILL BECOME

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

I don’t know about you, but I DON’T want to stay the SAME. I don’t want to be what I WAS. I want to be BETTER, a NEW creature, even if it is born of pain and suffering, the fires of hell forging something far STRONGER and GREATER than never having withstood such heartache and tragedy, the twists and turns that life loves to take us down just to see what we are made of, TESTING us to see whether we fail or shine. Being as I am might be ok for NOW, as I BECOME, but it will never be the FINAL me, because I am ALWAYS growing, making constant CHANGE as I progress, EVERY experience making me into something MORE than I was. Yes, it can be a scary thing, to know that the journey is not yet over and not knowing just exactly what the rest of it entail, but like the wind I will move WITH life, absorbing everything, knowing that each step of the journey is VALUABLE in creating the final me that I WILL BECOME.

Are you WITH me? Will YOU do the same and grow into the BEST you too?

"Look back and thank God. Look forward and trust God. Look within and find God! God closes doors no man can open and God opens doors no man can close!" - Unknown

"'For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.'" - Jeremiah 29:11-13

"Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. IMPOSSIBLE is nothing. How are you going to live your life?" - U.S. Army

"I succeed because I am willing to do the things you are not. I will fight against the odds. I will sacrifice. I am not shacked by fear, insecurity or doubt. I feel those emotions but I drink them in and swallow them away to the blackness of hell. I am motivated by accomplishment, not pride. Pride consumes the weak and kills their heart from inside. If I fall... I will get up. If I am beaten... I will return. I will never give up... EVER." - Nike

"The biggest risk in life is to risk nothing at all." - Anonymous

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that frightens us. Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. As we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence actually liberates others." - Marianne Williamson

"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." - Theodore Roosevelt

"It’s not about what you’ve got; it’s about what you DO with what you’ve got.” – Andie West, Step Up 2: The Streets

"To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift." – Steve Prefontaine

"Never, never, never, never give up." - Winston Churchill

"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done! Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!...until you start believing in yourself, you ain't gonna have a life...Cause if you're willing to go through all the battling you got to go through to get where you want to get, who's got the right to stop you? I mean maybe some of you guys got something you never finished, something you really want to do, something you never said to someone, something...and you're told no, even after you paid your dues? Who's got the right to tell you that, who? Nobody! It's your right to listen to your gut, it ain't nobody's right to say no after you earned the right to be where you want to be and do what you want to do!...You know, the older I get the more things I gotta leave behind, that's life. The only thing I'm asking you guys to leave on the table...is what's right." - Rocky Balboa

"Strength does not come from winning. Your struggles develop your strengths. When you go through hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength." - Arnold Schwarzenegger

"Nothing in the world is permanent and we are foolish when we ask anything to last, but surely we are still more foolish not to take delight in it while we have it." – William Somerset Maughan

"There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me... or leave me. Accept me - or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don't fit your idea of who I should be and don't try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision. When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad - you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you." - Stacey Charter
