MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY


YOU MATTER


Everything you do, everything you say, everything you ARE – it MATTERS! YOU matter.


No one else is, has been, can be, or ever will be YOU - only YOU can be you! You MATTER.


The hand you reach out or pull away, the words of encouragement and the words you never even utter, the smile you give even if your eyes do not share it – it all makes a DIFFERENCE to someone, whether you are aware of it or not. Every action, every thought, every dream, every prayer laughed or cried – ALL of it matters. YOU matter.


A single drop of water in the ocean might seem insignificant, but that drop creates a ripple as it touches the surface – a ripple that SPREADS. That single drop may never know how far its ripple of EFFECT reaches, nor to what effect it has, but it HAS an effect – it matters. A single drop in the ocean matters – in the same you are a single drop in the ocean of life and YOU matter.


NEVER think nothing of what you do and who you are. Never UNDERestimate your value and worth. Never hold yourself to the expectations of others, because you know yours are much HIGHER. Never give in to the overwhelming of your struggles, because you know they will just create more STRENGTH. Never STOP being you, no matter what. YOU MATTER.

NEVER FORGET IT!

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

STRENGTH

Strength isn’t about power or might. Sometimes strength is simply smiling at another when you don’t “have” a smile or just being there to listen when you’re exhausted and want to do anything but. Strength is not always “seen”, but it is always FELT and you never know who is observing.

You might never know it, but YOU could change someone’s life. You could be the catalyst for them looking into the mirror and searching deep and asking themselves what they truly want out of life. You could be the one they look up to and aspire to “be like”, because they see what you do and know a little of your story. You could be a “reason” in their life that inspires them to become BETTER.

It might not seem like you are being strong sometimes, but what is and what is seen are not always the same thing, and people are so very influenced by impressions, even when they come to learn the “truth”, and sometimes the truth makes them take a few steps back and think and “see” more.

When it feels like you have none, draw on Him. There is a never-ending supply of strength and grace waiting for us if we just ask for it. In the times when we don’t feel strong or want to be, then it is time to let His power be the strength we need. Remember, STILL being here, is strength and you never know what that means or “tells” others and the impact that a single ripple can make.

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

CREATE YOUR FUTURE

Your future is created by the “reaction” of your actions TODAY. Your actions in the present create circumstances which “roll into” TOMORROW. The “ripple effect” created by even the smallest action builds upon the FUTURE that will become.

TODAY is guaranteed. Tomorrow is NOT. Therefore it’s really not “ok” to wait until tomorrow to start doing what you know you should be doing today. Some things you might have to wait on, but for those that you do not have to, stop procrastinating when you have the opportunity to do it NOW.

Even if you might “fail” go ahead and TRY anyway. If you never fail you will never LEARN. If you never learn you will never GROW and life is all about “evolving” into the BEST you possible as you live your “purpose and mission”.

If you don’t know what to do, unsure about the steps you should take to see your dreams become your reality, ASK. It’s OK to ask for help and sometimes we must set aside our pride to admit we “need” it. We are all “in” this life together and all have something to give that someone else cannot.

Set your heart on the HIGHEST dream possible. There is NO “impossible” outside of your own mind if you are truly willing to give it everything you have and can. It might take time, but if you never start then that time just becomes LONGER, your destination nothing but a “wish”.

Do what you CAN with what you have here and now. What you cannot yet do, do WHEN you can. SOMEthing is better than nothing, especially when it will affect the life you will “walk into”. Make as much POSITIVE impact towards your future as you can, so that you might live it as you “want”.

USE TODAY. NOT TOMORROW. START NOW.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

SOUL ON FIRE

A soul on FIRE can CHANGE the world. At least the one it is IN; the world of those AROUND it. It can make such a DIFFERENCE that the lives of all it touches will NEVER be the same ever again.

A soul on fire is POWERFUL. It can draw other souls to it like a magnet; moths to the flame that burns BRIGHT in the darkness. The VISION of that soul can INSPIRE more in the hearts of the souls warmed by its light.

A SOUL on fire canNOT be ignored. It cannot be cast aside and dismissed; muted down into the depths of the darkness. Even in the midst of intense opposition and force such a voice will be HEARD and followed.

A soul on fire creates a raging INFERNO that blazes in the souls following. It ignites PASSION hiding and lying dormant in souls that have been waiting for something to set them ALIGHT. Such an inferno SPREADS, like ripples on a pool or waves in the ocean, reaching FURTHER than one could ever imagine.  

A soul on fire is a WEAPON. So be careful WHAT you do; the influence you exert. For you never know who will be affected, or how it will leave them. Since…

A soul on fire can IMPACT not just the sphere it exists in, but the WORLD in its entirety, as the ripples of effect touch the hearts and lives of souls it might never ever meet, but whom, through its words and actions and vision are profoundly affected. To live dreams or nightmares and in turn touching OTHERS.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ONE DROP IN THE OCEAN

One drop of water in a puddle ripples to the edge of the puddle. One drop of water in the ocean creates a ripple that spreads as far as it can, and you never ever see how far it reaches or when it ends, only know that it spans far more than you ever might imagine, for the waves carry that ripple to many waters, allow it to touch numerous shores, and that one drop may end up in its existence seeing more of the world than can be fathomable.

In the same way, YOU are a drop in the ocean of life. You have more reach and make more impact than you will ever possibly know of. EVERY word and action has a cause and effect, that effect sometimes spreading and touching the hearts and lives of people you might never have thought it would. Therefore, be careful what you say, what you do, who you spend time with, who you allow into your heart, for what you surround yourself with becomes a PART of you; an important part that instigates desires and emotions that manifest as thoughts and word and actions, that in turn can create ripples of effect that make a difference in AND to OTHERS.

You might be only ONE, but you are more POWERFUL than you think. You have more INFLUENCE than you know. You are watched not just by God, but by man, and EVERYTHING you are and do has an EFFECT, a change that can be positive or negative. You want your life to make a DIFFERENCE, a POSITIVE impact that inspires others to a BETTER life and motivating them to be FULFIL their potential and become ALL that they can be.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ADDING TO THE WORLD

Every day is ANOTHER chance to make a difference; to give hope to someone who might have little left; to encourage one who has all but lost faith in their dreams or who is close to achieving their goals; to make a sad heart smile or a lonely person feel that for a moment they are not alone. It is another opportunity to put yourself out there and take the risk of living, and in your living, IMPACT another life in ways that you might possibly not be able to imagine.

You are one in a sea of many; a single grain of sand in the endless desert of life, not even a teardrop in the vast ocean of life; but one thread in the tapestry that weaves all lives and destinies together. One does not mean insignificant, for one CAN change the world if they but have the courage and the heart and the determination to go out there and do what they CAN in their sphere, for who knows what domino effect or ripples might spread from the actions and words of that one.

Every day is another chance for every single soul out there to create a memory that will last a lifetime in another soul; a difference that might be THE difference and change a life beyond anything they could ever fathom. Every day is another opportunity to be a light to the darkness that surrounds you; a message to those who desperately need to hear it; an example that He will be proud of. What are YOU going to be adding to the world today?

2012 | Day 329: ONE DROP IN THE OCEAN

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ONE DROP IN THE OCEAN

One drop of water in a puddle ripples to the edge of the puddle. One drop of water in the ocean creates a ripple that spreads as far as it can, and you never ever see how far it reaches or when it ends, only know that it spans far more than you ever might imagine, for the waves carry that ripple to many waters, allow it to touch numerous shores, and that one drop may end up in its existence seeing more of the world than can be fathomable.

In the same way, YOU are a drop in the ocean of life. You have more reach and make more impact than you will ever possibly know of. EVERY word and action has a cause and effect, that effect sometimes spreading and touching the hearts and lives of people you might never have thought it would. Therefore, be careful what you say, what you do, who you spend time with, who you allow into your heart, for what you surround yourself with becomes a PART of you; an important part that instigates desires and emotions that manifest as thoughts and word and actions, that in turn can create ripples of effect that make a difference in AND to OTHERS.

You might be only ONE, but you are more POWERFUL than you think. You have more INFLUENCE than you know. You are watched not just by God, but by man, and EVERYTHING you are and do has an EFFECT, a change that can be positive or negative. You want your life to make a DIFFERENCE, a POSITIVE impact that inspires others to a BETTER life and motivating them to be FULFIL their potential and become ALL that they can be.
