The Daily Motivator for February 10th – One little joy

One little joy

A life of happiness and fulfillment is built piece by piece, one little joy  at a time. The moment you’re in is the perfect opportunity to add a little joy  to life.

Even when there’s something big that’s getting you down, you can find  something small to lift you up. Just one little joy can change your outlook in a  big way.

There is a lot of goodness in life, and it’s always good to be reminded of  that. You deserve a little joy right now, so go ahead and give it to  yourself.

While you’re at it, give some joy to those around you. Even a simple, sincere  smile can make a difference, so make wherever you are a more joyful place.

Decide that you’ll find some little way to be joyful, and you can feel the  positive energy flowing in you. Everything you do will be enhanced and improved  when you do it from a perspective of joy.

Add a little joy to life, right now and every chance you get. Those little  joys will quickly add up to a life that’s truly magnificent.

February 4 – Daily Feast

February 4 – Daily Feast

To stand alone does not mean there is no one else around. It means we are u na tse li dv-u na to tiv hi…. We think for ourselves in an independent way, using our heads rather than our feet. We fit life to us instead of letting it press us into a mold that would not makes us happy. Letting the world dictate to us is being one of the herd that runs – not because it is the right thing to do, but because we think everyone else is doing it, and so must we. Is it the right direction? Refusing to be swept along with every trend is cultivating our inner awareness of right and wrong. Awareness is there within us, but we have to hear it and heed it. This is why we were given intelligence – to stand alone so that we may have something to offer when someone else needs us.

The Daily Motivator for Jan. 9th – Stop waiting

Stop waiting

Don’t wait to be inspired. Get busy, and find your inspiration in making  something good and useful happen.

Don’t wait for the moment to be right. Go ahead and make the moment right by  what you do with it.

If you wish for fortune to shine upon you, give it a good reason to do so.  The reliable way to be lucky is to make your own luck with your own efforts.

The way to get what you want is not to beg for it or hope for it or demand  it. The way to get what you want is to do what you must to make it happen.

You know that, so go ahead and put your knowledge to good use. Feel the  irreplaceable satisfaction that comes from being master of your own fate.

Stop waiting for life to be the way you want. Start doing all you can to make  it great.

The Daily Motivator for Jan. 1st – The very best year ever

The very best year ever

To have the best year you’ve ever had, live each of its days as the best  person you’ve ever been. This year will be what you make it, and you can make it  great.

Many challenges will come your way, and unexpected interruptions will push  you off track. Yet you can make the choice to persevere, to innovate, to thrive  and to prosper no matter what.

Life is not easy and life is not fair. Nonetheless, you can live each day  with grace, integrity, purpose, love, compassion and richness.

The decisions you make in each small moment will determine how this year  unfolds for you. Decide right now to make the most of that amazing  opportunity.

All sorts of outside factors will have an impact on your life this year. Yet  the overall quality of your life will be determined by the way you choose to  be.

Choose to be your authentic best, in each moment and in every situation. And  create the very best year ever.

The Daily Motivator for Nov. 15th – Real, fulfilling life

Real, fulfilling life

Life gives to you what you give to life. The way you experience life depends  on the way you choose to live it.

If you act according to your own greed, you will suffer from the greed of  others. If you live with hatred you will be the recipient of hatred.

When you live out of a sense of authentic love, you will receive love from  others. Live with true respect, and you will be truly respected.

You cannot possibly get the good things you do not wish to give. You cannot possibly avoid receiving in return whatever it is you offer to life.

A puzzle that is solved for you is really not any fun. A life that is lived  for you is no life at all.

Make your own way, shoulder your own burdens, and give your very best in  every moment. That is real, fulfilling life, and it is priceless.

Daily Motivator for October 27th – Right here and now

Right here and now

If you wish to have it done, begin to do it now. If you wish to experience  life, then fully live it today.

The future is not certain and the past is out of reach. Now is where your  possibilities dwell, and now is when you must live them.

Don’t waste your wish on what might never be, or long for what is finished.  Invest your energy in the magnificent life that is right here and now.

Yes, by all means work toward a meaningful purpose. And as you do, find  richness and joy in the portion of the journey that is happening now.

Everything that is, is now, and it is more than enough. Let go of any sense of lack or need, and open yourself to the unique wonder of this moment.

There is limitless value to be lived right here and now. This is when you can  experience life at its best, so do.

The Daily Motivator for Oct. 14th – Your best day yet

Your best day yet

You are here, on this day, with dreams, desires, challenges, opportunities,  and the ability to successfully deal with it all. So give this day a solid,  meaningful, positive purpose and claim the great value it offers.

Make the choice to make some progress in a direction of your choosing.  Instead of merely letting the time pass, put life and love, substance and  experience into that time.

Think of what a great opportunity you have with each day that comes your way.  You have the opportunity to make a difference, to truly change the world, and to  live your precious life in new and joyful ways.

Look back and recall the best day you’ve ever experienced, and make the  choice to make this one even better. The quality of each day depends on what you  put into it, so start right now to put your best into this day that you  have.

Instead of merely wishing for what could be or complaining about what has  been, you can do something much more powerful. You can act, right here and now,  to significantly raise the quality of your life experience.

Today is happening, so take an active and positively supportive role. Feel  your authentic purpose, live this day with that purpose, and make it the best  day yet.

Daily OM for August 19th – Conditions are perfect

Conditions are perfect

Don’t put off your life waiting for conditions to be right. Conditions are  perfect, right here and now, because you are alive and able to make a  difference.

The day to live life fully is not someday. Someday never comes, yet today is  here for you right now.

Wait no longer, for in this moment is the opportunity you seek. Life can be  as rich and fulfilling as you dare to imagine on this very day.

For life’s richness does not come from arranging your affairs in a certain,  specific way. Life’s true richness is found by allowing, feeling, expressing and  experiencing your own unique beauty as it flows out from you.

Let that beauty flow into whatever circumstances you may find yourself in.  Release the conditions you’ve put on joy, and let it fill your world, however  that world may otherwise be.

On this day, in this moment, in this place, conditions are perfect for you to  fully live. Experience the wonder of your life that is right now.

Daily Motivator for July 16th – Get Better and Better

Get better and better

Every moment is a choice, and every day is a consequence of all the choices  you have made. To achieve different consequences, make different choices.

Each experience is a learning experience. Continue to learn what works and  what doesn’t, what fulfills you and what doesn’t, and use that knowledge to  great benefit.

Find valuable insight in what has been, and make use of that insight right  now when choosing what to do. That’s a surefire way to improve what will be.

As life goes on, you have every opportunity to get better and better at it.  With each joy, each disappointment, each success and each setback, your choices  can become more powerful and effective.

Life generously teaches, so learn. Life demonstrates, inspires, and gives  priceless feedback, so pay close attention and eagerly apply its ongoing  lessons.

You’re truly blessed with the opportunity to continue getting better. Take  that opportunity, now and always, and delight in continuing to discover all the  good you can do.

Daily Motivator for Jan. 4th – Live your life forward

Live your life forward

 

Don’t be sad or regretful about the opportunities you’ve missed. Get excited  and enthusiastic about the opportunities now available to you.

Take joy and wisdom and inspiration from the past. And leave the rest of the  past in the past.

Look forward from where you now are. Live your life forward with the highest  of expectations.

Whatever you may have, you have it good. Now is the time to relentlessly  build on that goodness in your life.

Think of all the things you can do today that will make tomorrow better.  Think that way, and act on your thoughts, day after day after day.

Every moment is an opportunity to make a difference. Use each of those  opportunities for positive purpose, and delight in the results as you live your  life forward.

Daily Motivator for January 1 – New, improved year

New, improved year

There’s one key factor that will make this New Year the best one ever. That  important factor is your attitude.

The way you most consistently decide to see life will play a major role in  the way your life actually unfolds. Right now, as the year begins, make the  choice to make your life, and your whole world, the best it can be.

Create a new, improved year by going through it with a new, improved outlook  on life. Make this a great year by choosing an attitude that reflects your own  unique greatness.

In the year ahead you’ll encounter many obstacles, and yet there’s one  powerful obstacle you don’t ever have to deal with again. That obstacle, the one  you can get rid of for good, is your own negative attitude.

Just because things can often get difficult, doesn’t mean you have to be  difficult. No matter what the situation, a positive, empowering attitude is  always your best choice.

Stride confidently forward with the highest and best expectations you’ve ever  had. Your life this year is what you make it, so embrace an attitude that will  make it positive, fulfilling and great.

Daily Motivator for November 23rd – Not just the easiest

Not just the easiest

Taking the easy way out does not usually end up being very easy. Taking the  easy way out in the short run will make things much more difficult in the long  run.

You have the choice to completely deal with each problem when it arises.  That’s much better, and ultimately easier, than simply delaying the consequences  until later.

You have the ability to speak the truth, and to take responsibility for your  actions. In the end, that’s easier than making increasingly difficult efforts to  hide who you are and what you’ve done.

The life you experience in the future is determined by the way you act right  now. Consider each of your choices in light of its overall impact on your life,  not just based on what’s easiest for the moment.

The quick and easy answers can often lead to lingering, difficult  consequences. The way to live a life that’s good is to honestly work through the  difficulties rather than avoid them.

You deserve the best in life, and not just the easiest, least effective  answers. You deserve the richness and fulfillment that a life of responsibility  brings.

Daily Motivator for November 20 – Open-ended miracle

Open-ended miracle

You are alive, and that is amazing. You can make a difference, you can change  things, right here and now, and that is a boundless opportunity.

There are challenges, and they are difficult, even painful. Yet they are  nothing when compared to the possibilities.

What’s happened in the past makes you wary about the future. Fortunately, you  can act in the present to influence the future in a positive and meaningful  way.

Life is an open-ended miracle and it is yours today. Get clear about what you  would most like to do with it, and get busy working to make that happen.

You are immersed in a sea of energy and abundance. You have the outstandingly  good fortune of being in a position to make something truly meaningful out of it  all.

Make your beautiful, amazing presence known in a positive, creative and  loving way. The miracle is yours to live right now.

Daily Motivator for September 29 – Joy is a choice

Joy is a choice

There is nothing that can make you happy if you choose not to be. And there  is nothing that can prevent you from being happy when happiness is your  choice.

There is no need to delay the joy of living until some future, imagined,  ideal time when conditions are perfect. Now is when you are living your life,  and now is your opportunity to live with genuine joy.

No position or possession or experience or set of circumstances will make  your life good. Your life already is filled with magnificent goodness that’s  yours to be experienced to whatever degree you allow.

Worrying about the future achieves nothing other than to rob you of joy in  the present. Feel the wonder of your being, right here, right now, and fill your  awareness with its richness.

Instead of looking for reasons to be envious or resentful, see in each moment  all the opportunities for joy. Instead of avoiding or delaying what must be  done, step enthusiastically forward each time you have a chance to make a  difference.

Joy is a beautiful, life-affirming choice that you can always make no matter  what. Choose to live with joy, and give yourself a life that’s truly rich.

Daily Motivator for September 25 – Life as it is

Life as it is

Whatever may happen, there is no need for dismay. Always, there is the  opportunity to creatively and successfully deal with the things life sends your  way.

There’s nothing to be gained by wishing that things had turned out  differently. Pick yourself up, connect with the energy of your passion, put a  smile on your face and move forward with what is.

Your best choice is always to be your best. And you can’t be your best when  you’re complaining or regretting or worried or dismayed.

Every situation generates a new set of positive possibilities. So in every  situation, choose to see those possibilities and to enthusiastically follow  them.

Each setback is just another step toward getting where you have chosen to go.  Learn, adapt, re-commit, and get quickly back on track.

Every twist and turn in the road of life gives you the opportunity to make a  difference. Relish those opportunities, make the most of them, and build a  magnificent life.

Daily Motivator for August 27 – With this day

With this day

With this day comes the possibility for new joy. You can choose, right now,  to embrace and fulfill that possibility, or you can choose to ignore it.

With this day comes the opportunity to move forward, to get positive and  useful and meaningful things done. You can grab that opportunity and run with  it, or you can let it drain away.

This day comes to you filled with great promise. This day gives you time and  space and resources with which to enrich your life and your world.

Instead of making judgments about what this day might bring, make firm and  positive decisions about what you will do with it. Choose your most desirable  direction and then use every moment to work your way forward in that direction.

Right now, you have the privilege of living this day. Remind yourself of how  truly fortunate you are, and resolve to make the most of your immense good  fortune.

With this day comes the precious and unique gift of your life. Gratefully  accept and embrace that gift, and live every moment with positive purpose.
