"The best stories are not told through words, but with your eyes." - Kai York

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY


"YOU are living your story."


That's right; everything you have ever experienced, felt, dreamt - it's been YOU. No one else has lived your exact life. No one else has discovered yourself quite like you - they may know or see you differently, and you are likely the one with the harshest view, but they do not know you as you do.


Life can be cruel at times, but it can also be beautiful and there is always hope; always a light. Despite the flames that seek to consume you, stand tall and embrace them; BECOME the fire, ablaze with passion and powerful potential. Do not shrink back from your dreams and heart - instead them yourself be led by the soul that burns and turns and wanders; be ALIVE within yourself and life.


At any point you can decide to CHANGE your story; to walk a different path. And that's ok. Evolution, transformation, awakening, enlightenment - it's a part of living and growing and becoming. Fear not the future ahead and regret not the past you leave behind. Be brave and dare greatly - give yourself permission to LIVE. Every day, every moment, as if it were magic, a true fairy-tale, your reality a fantasy, and you, at any time, can decide who you are and want to be in that story.

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

ONCE UPON A TIME

Life is a MIRACLE. Life is a FAIRY-TALE. Life is a story that time tells and we CREATE through our decisions and actions. Life can be WHATEVER we want it to be if we are willing to believe that it CAN be. Life can be a dream come TRUE if we ALLOW it to manifest as our reality. Life can be everything we could ever want and so much MORE if we open our hearts and souls to the POSSIBILITY.

NEVER say “never”, for you never know when “never” can become a TRUTH right in front of you, lived by YOU in a life you might never have imagined for yourself. Life loves to SURPRISE you, so never give up hope and always have faith that it is so much MORE than what is SEEN, that endless potential and wonder lie in wait for you, for that moment when you least expect it.

ALWAYS dream. Always BELIEVE. Life IS a miracle and ANYthing can happen!

2012 | Day 256: EVERYONE HAS A STORY

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

EVERYONE HAS A STORY
 
You have a story. I have a story. EVERYone has a story. A story about life; an event; a period; a moment; a truth; something significant that changed, whether it be in an instant or over time. Everyone has a beginning, middle, and end; some are just starting, whilst others are nearing the finish line.

What you see is NOT reality; it is not what WAS or what CAN be or what WILL be. It simply is what is right NOW, and “right now” can change in an instant. You canNOT look at a person and know what they have been through, where they have come from; you canNOT assume that just because someone LOOKS fit and healthy that they have ALWAYS been fit and healthy, or even that they ARE fit and healthy, because what one LOOKS like is no indicator of what they truly are INSIDE. Sure, looks may help reflect the lifestyle a person leads, even in fitness, but it does not mean that they ARE fit and healthy.

So before you are quick to have an IMPRESSION of someone you know NOTHING about, take the time to GET to know them. Ask them who they are and where they have been, and even more importantly, WHERE they are going and what they are taking from their experience. Where one has been gives you an understanding of where they are at now, and can help motivate not just them, but YOU as well, FORWARD.

You might be surprised to learn that the trainer who looks like a fitness model was once the “fat kid” at school, tormented until they reached a breaking point and turned their life around. Or that the woman who trains like someone possessed lives in constant physical pain every day, pushing through the pain because she knows the end result is worth enduring more pain. Or that the most motivating person you know projects positivity to hide the pain they feel inside, because they know that if they cannot help themselves at least they can inspire others to do great things.

What would you do if you KNEW these things? Would it change your PERSPECTIVE? Would it improve your AWARENESS? Would it make a DIFFERENCE?

EVERYONE has a story and you never know unless you ASK or they SHARE. You never know the impact YOUR story could have on another’s life, the difference knowing what you have been through and struggle with could have on someone you do not even know. So do not be afraid to let others know where you have been and what you have overcome to be where you are today.

It’s about COMMUNITY, making a DIFFERENCE, being there to HELP others create a BETTER life. SHARE TO INSPIRE!
