He is coming for all

Happy Halloween to one that has inspired many, Crazy Mike.
A bitter man (now in his early 60's) spent most of his life complaining about what is wrong with the world and all the wrongs that were done to him. How many times a day are we this man?

One night the Grim Reaper showed up in this man's dream. After complaining about his day, the man said, "What are you doing hear?" The Grim Reaper replied, "I'm hear to take your life." The man begged, "Oh please, I have so much yet to live. Please don't take my life away." The Grim Reaper emphatically stated, "THEN START ENJOYING IT! OR I'LL BE BACK!" and vanished.

"Plenty of people miss their share of happiness, not because they never found it, but because they didn't stop to enjoy it. ~William Feather

Are You a Person of Purpose?

Special Hello to an amazing Irish step dancer, James Hester.
"People who are to weak to go after their dreams, may find a way to discourage yours."
Do you overreact? Do you say things without thinking? Do you drag through each morning with the same uninteresting routine? If so, then you may be a person of habit.

Be a PERSON OF PURPOSE! A person of purpose brings meaning to what they do. Their everyday journey to fulfill their plan of action is bringing them closer to their dreams. Is your daily routine just a routine? When we stop dreaming, we stop living. Where would you like to be in life? What are you doing to get there?

"When you don't have a plan for your goals, then your dreams turn into wishes."

Are You a Motivational Speaker?

Why wouldn't you want to motivate someone else? Any career you are in, any friend or family member, will put you in a situation where it will be your obligation to motivate someone.

Do you just give advice or is it motivating advice? Do you just help people or do you inspire them?

Don't make your words or actions thought provoking for others. Make them change provoking.

A teacher once said, "One of my goals is to be a positive interruption to a downward spiral."

Get a Life

If you're doing something exciting and you're not nervous, then it's not exciting. If you're not nervous then what you're doing isn't exciting. Then maybe what you're doing isn't worth it.

If you're not doing something meaningful with your life, then go do something else.

Some people live their life in total amazement just because life inspires them.

There isn't a way that I can.
There isn't a way.

Finding True Happiness- Hint: Stop Looking

Most people spend their lives looking in all the wrong places for it. True happiness is not something you find it's something you decide.

How much more do you have to have in life before you can decide to be happy? If you're not happy with what you have, then why do you deserve anymore? For some people, no matter how much they have, they will find ways to be unhappy. Are you happy with what you have, or are you unhappy with what you don't have? That is a decision that you will continue to make throughout your life.

Let go of the "What about me? " attitude and latch onto "We Not Me."

Did you find it?

Special Hello to Heather Fackelman.
Do you find it in your own individual accomplishments? Did you find it by watching t.v.? Did you look in someone else for it? Are you waiting for someone to give it to you? Do you believe it is in the things you own? Have you allowed everything else in life to get in the way of it?

What is it? TRUE HAPPINESS.

Most people spend their lives living to be temporarily happy. Here are some examples of temporary happiness: new clothes, new phone, jewelry, sport game, alcohol, etc...

Are we truly fulfilled when we get these things? Is it true happiness? Or, is it temporary happiness which is just a part time fulfilment?

If you are tired of being temporarily fulfilled, check back tomorrow for true happiness.
Here is a hint:
"Happiness is not the absence of conflict, but the ability to cope with it."

If Only Thoughts- How to be Unhappy

Some people spend their whole lives saying, "If only." Here is how some people try and find their way to happiness.

If only I was taller,
If only I graduated College,
If only I was better looking,
If only I had a better job,
If only I had a new car...

Happiness isn't anything that someone can give you. True happiness is wanting what you already have.

So, How do you be unhappy?
Answer: Continue focusing on what you don't have.

"Be who you are. NO ONE ELSE IS QUALIFIED!"

Networking?

Ever here the term Networking. Networking is used in businesses today, by sharing ideas and developing relationships with others to ultimately help themselves get ahead of where they are now. Networking is building relationships with people because the objective in your mind is to further your career.

When you give expecting nothing in return, you are building true relationships. When you live your life to help others passionately, your dreams will come to you.

The Secret to Team Building

"The quality of your relationship will determine the stability of your team."

RELATIONSHIPS
Successful relationships know this:
Your obligation is not to get others to think more highly of yourself. But to get others to think more highly of themselves.

How to get to where you want to be?

Answer: Surround yourself with encouraging and caring people who can get you there.

What are your dreams in life? Who is helping you reach your dreams?

In business, on a sports team or in life, we all need a T.E.A.M., Together Everyone Achieves More. Who is on your TEAM? Other people's attitudes in your life, may be holding you back from all that you can become.

In which case ask yourself:
If my companies mission is to climb a tree; Who would I hire in order to get me closest to my goals? Would I hire a squirrel? Or would I hire a horse and spent the rest of my life training it?

There are people out there who already believe in you. It's not your job to train others to.

Walt Disney once said, "If you tell your friends your dreams, and they laugh at you, then go make some new friends."

Let's Celebrate!

Have you done this today? Are you waiting until tomorrow? Can others tell by the look on your face? Does your actions make it clear to others? We have many opportunities everyday to do this?

CELEBRATE OUR EXISTENCE!

People live their lives, but only when something exciting happens to them, they show they're truly alive.

Most people wait until something happens to them to enjoy life. YOU Can Make It Happen!

Can I Borrow $25

Special hello to Louis Yip.
A man came home from work late, tired and irritated, to find his 5-year old son waiting for him at the door.
Son: Dad. How much do you make an hour?
Dad: Why you ask?
Son: Just want to know.
Dad: $50
Son: Can I borrow $25
Dad: You wanted to know just to borrow money from me! How selfish can you be! You have enough toys! And things! You don't need anymore! Now go to your room!
(The boy sobbing, went up to his room)

30 minutes later, after Dad calmed down, he thought how harsh he was and went upstairs to apologize to his son.

Dad: Son. Sorry I was so harsh on you. Here is the $25 you asked for.
Son: (smiling) Oh Thank you Daddy!
The little boy reached under his pillow where more money lay. He slowly counted out his money, and then looked up at his father.
Dad: You ask me for $25 and you already had the money! What did you ask me for $25 for!
Son: Because I didn't have enough, but now I do. I have $50 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you.

Ever tell a child, "We'll do it tomorrow,"
And in your haste not see their sorrow."

Hippocrate. Are you one?

"Please forgive me. I didn't mean it. You know how angry I get sometimes."

Some people are holding grudges on others for their sins but expect God to forgive them for theirs.

When someone hurts you, remember,
"God has already forgiven them for their sins, why haven't you?

Stress Kills

What do you give importance to that is totally irrelevant the next day?

Is it the way others act? Is it the traffic everyday? Is it what someone said to you?
Aren't you tired of getting upset over things that you cannot control? You may be going nuts over situations that will not have any effect on you the next day.

What is the #1 cause of a heart attack?
Answer: Stress

Most stresses in life are self imposed.

It's not alright to be alright

Dedicated to a man taking on a new and exciting adventure in life, dedicated to making a difference in others, Coach Andy Hernandez.

Have you ever heard people say:
"Our relationship is just fine." "Ah it's good enough."

When you let good enough be good enough, you stop growing as a person.

"Don't try and change me." Translation: "I don't want to change. I am fine the way I am."

Without change, there isn't any growth. If you want better then understand this:
"Nothing will change unless you do."

"If you don't have the desire to improve, you will forever walk the plateau of mediocrity." ~Andy Hernandez

What would your children inherit?

Would they inherit the ability to:
hold grudges-have negative reactions-wallow in self pity-have low self esteem-live in constant conflict?

Or would they inherit the ability to:
Forgive-look beyond the obstacles-bounce back from defeat-build others up-live in the moment?

It's your life. Whenever you have a poor or positive attitude or response, that's not who you are, that's the choice that you make.

You can not live a positive life and have great futures with others if you're holding on to past pains.

"Don't allow the pains of the past to poison your future, because where you're going is more important than where you been." ~Joel Osteen
