If it's not on paper, did it really happen?

This forces us to think deeper and more clearly about the why's. It allows for the emotions that are involved to come out into the open. It reminds us of the power these feelings and emotions have over us. Even though we know these things deep down inside, seeing them on paper in front of our own eyes gives us the ability to add definition to these feelings.

Finding time for your passions

When we decide to make the time to do the things that we are passionate about, it allows us to recharge our batteries so to speak. When this happens we end up creating a higher amount of positive energy that we then can share and spread more freely. We don't feel pulled in a thousand different directions.

Approach and Acknowledgement

When the initial contact is started from a negative mindset, what are the real possibilities of a positive outcome? Not very high and more often than not you leave the situation in a worse frame of mine then when the encounter started. When we approach this same situation from a positive mindset the chances of a positive outcome for both of you increases.

Acceptance

Letting go can sometimes make us feel like we will lose something, when in reality the memories will always be there when you need or want them. Acceptance allows us to grow an inner strength that was not there before. When we let go, we grow.

Scared? Just Breathe

Instead of fighting or running away, most of us actually just freeze. We don't do anything, we don't react, we don't think and most of all we don't breathe. When we get into these stressful situations we end up shortening our breathing patterns dramatically and stop breathing through our diaphragm.

Running through humidity

Adversity isn't about something just about something awful or something that is a pain in the ass. Adversity is nature's way of making us stronger inside and out. Adversity is how we learn the most about ourselves and those around us. Adversity teaches us who we can count on when the proverbial $#!% hits the fan.

Learning, everyday.

I am not a fan at all of arrogant and ignorant people. They have a narcissistic attitude and they rely on you to feed their narcissism it to keep them going. I have no time nor patience for this kind of mindset invading mine or my family or my friends lives.

Living through positive actions

We all share this space called life. We interact with each other everyday. Our moods, our behaviors, our actions, what we say to each other has a direct effect on everything around us. This concept goes directly to the heart of "Actions Speak Louder Than Words". When we try to always try to talk our way through a problem or issue or more importantly a teaching moment, a large majority of what we say is either lost in translation or just blocked out.

Conquering for the Long Run

But for those of us who believe in the Long Run, there is no quitting. There is only, "Find Another Way". I have always said your goals need to be just as important to you as the things you value most in life. Your goals need to be a part of you no matter how long they take to accomplish.

Stop and smell the roses

We may feel we don't have enough time during the day when in actuality we have way more time than we think. When we don't think we have enough time, that is us just being to lazy to look at our daily schedules and changing them up to create that time needed for ourselves. Basically we are making excuses.
