2012 | Day 277: THE STORY OF YOU

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

THE STORY OF YOU

There is only ONE you. Only YOU know your own life better than anyone else. Only you know JUST what you have been through in your lifetime. Only you know what you have and to what extent you have to OFFER life. Only YOU can give what it is you have to offer.

There is only one YOU. Do NOT let the world make you into someone else. Do not let them try and turn you into a copy of another. Do not let them take away who YOU are. Do not let them wipe away the wonderful story of YOU.

There IS only one you. You are UNIQUE. You are SPECIAL. You are PRECIOUS. You are a BLESSING.

There is so much MORE to you than what the world has seen. There is so much more TO be seen. There is so much more to be EXPERIENCED. There is so much more waiting FOR you.

Your life can be lived by no one BUT you. Your life can not be told by anyone but YOU. You and ONLY you can be you and who you were MEANT to be. No one can or will EVER be able to replace you.

YOU ARE SIGNIFICANT and you have a STORY TO TELL. That story is your own. OWN it. You have come so FAR and you have so far to GO. Only YOU can traverse the footprints destined for your life.

Make EVERY step in your journey count for something. Make every action PURPOSEFUL. Make every life you TOUCH see hope and light and happiness. Make your life MEAN something and create as much positive change as you possibly can.

No one else can LIVE your life. Be proud and confident in knowing WHO you are. Embrace your purpose and be HAPPY to be alive. Make your journey a story WORTH telling.

2012 | Day 265: FREEDOM TO BE FREE

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

FREEDOM TO BE FREE

Freedom – what does it mean? What does it allow? Is it something the world gives us that we give ourselves? To be free - is that the same as freedom or something else altogether? Can you have freedom but NOT be free? That is the question.

I believe you CAN. “Freedom” is something that you can be granted by others, but to be “free” is something we must do for our own soul. For what value has freedom if our soul is not free, a prisoner of our emotion, hiding away, twisted out of sight, when we feel like we cannot be ourselves truly as we are? What use is freedom when we are trapped inside our own mind, captured by fear of what might be if we give ourselves permission to be and open up to the world? What point is there in freedom if we are not FREE?

Only WE can free ourselves, our soul and heart and mind, casting aside crippling emotion and irrational fear. Only WE can give ourselves that peace and calm, the ability to face life with an indomitable spirit, ready to face anything, embrace any challenge, and not give in or run and hide. Only WE have the power to give ourselves the courage to be free and live a life in complete freedom.

What will it be? Will you unshackle yourself from the chains holding you back from living life as fully as you were intended to? Will you allow yourself hope and faith that in taking the first step you are putting yourself in the hands of one who only has your BEST interests at heart? Will you believe in YOURSELF and all that you are capable of, knowing that you are powerful and significant, realizing that only YOU can release that into the world?

WILL you? Will you allow yourself to be FREE to ENJOY the FREEDOM of YOUR LIFE?

2012 | Day 263: SOUL JOURNEY

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

SOUL JOURNEY

Our lifetime is made up of many journeys. Journeys that make and break us, shape and mould us, past and present determining what we shall become in the future, the most important of all that of our soul, the path to spiritual enlightenment, the metamorphosis of our innermost core as we traverse the journeys of life. Each journey we take in the physical has spiritual ramifications and often affect us far more than what the world can see, turning our souls inside out, upside down, twisting and contorting it until we are not sure we will ever be able to recognize ourselves when we come out the other side of the purging fire.

Each journey we take and every person we cross paths with leaves a footprint on our soul, teaching us valuable lessons and to show us how significant we are in the fabric of the universe. Love and loss, success and tragedy, ecstasy and pain, are all tools of the world to touch us, to create the destiny of our souls, the tumultuous journey that will leave us tempered like the rarest and most beautiful of diamonds, born of the greatest pressure and heat, crushed beyond life itself and shining forth a brilliant light from an indomitable spirit.

With strength and purity of heart we will survive anything, our soul’s journey one that is never-ending, each step one step closer to becoming the highest being and ultimate version of us that we can aspire to.

2012 | Day 223: I AM ONE

MOTIVATIONAL OF THE DAY

I AM ONE
 
We are all only one part of life, one of many billions of people on the planet. The number one is a small, solitary number. It can be a common thought that “one” cannot achieve much, that it is INsignificant, but NOTHING is insignificant and ONE individual CAN make a difference - whether that difference is merely only to a single other or reaches out far beyond the scope of imagining.

There are many things that we cannot do simply because we ARE one. But there are also many things that we CAN do as one. Knowing the difference between them is a part of accomplishing great things - you must know when to “team up” and when you can go at it alone.

Even teaming up with another or a group of others, when the vision you share is mutual, for the greater good, IS making a difference. But the vision of ONE is nothing to be taken lightly either, for the vision of one can sometimes make the MOST difference - you just have to make sure that the difference is a POSITIVE and EMPOWERING one.

Therefore, NEVER UNDERestimate the power of who you are, what you say and what you do. You never know who might be listening or watching and what impact you will have on them, on their LIVES - nor the subsequent impact that THEY can have on another.
