Motivation at Work: Feed Your Spirit & Your Bottom Line!

Ideals are the invisible templates that govern the physical form of nature. ~ Plato

Thoughts and ideas provide the mold by which you create your life and business. Your life is a mirror that reflects what you truly believe. So, the fundamental and most important ingredient for creating the life and business you want lies in … preparing your mental atmosphere by aligning your thoughts and feelings to support your intentions.  

If you want more joy, be joyous, if you want more money, wisdom, courage, a new car, time with your children … you can! But … only if you think you can … and only if you are willing to align your thoughts, feelings and actions with what it is you want!  

You can not change what you do not acknowledge first. You can’t dissolve limiting beliefs or habits if you get stuck in self-criticism. So don’t beat yourself up for what hasn’t happened yet. It will come when you least expect it.
Dare to dream big and believe in yourself!

For you can do, be or create absolutely anything you can imagine.
 
Have an awesome journey!

Using your unique gifts and talents, and exploring personal interests and hobbies are essential ingredients for a fulfilling life.   The truth is we’re happiest when we are using our unique talents to express who we truly are. We experience more joy and satisfaction when our personal and professional decisions are aligned with our unique definition of success, and when we make time in our life to pursue personal interests and hobbies. 

So knowing what you want to experience more of in your life and business, helps you create a plan to get there.  In going through this process, you may find you want to refine your current business model to support your vision of an ideal lifestyle or it may mean eliminating some habits that no longer serve you, or strengthening your resolve to say no to the things that don’t move you toward your desired destination. 

It’s time to give yourself permission to take care of your own needs too. You are worth taking care of!  You simply can’t keep caring for everyone else, at the expense of your own needs. To better serve those you care about, you must serve your Self too.

Feed your spirit AND your bottom line. When spirit comes first, everything else will fall in line.

 Within every person is a desire to do something meaningful …
to make a difference and to feel appreciated.

That is the simple formula for inspiring your Self, as well as others.

You find meaning when you express your unique talents and strengths.
For these are your soul gifts that give your life purpose. These are the things you love to do.

You make a difference when you are guided by the life qualities that have personal significance to you...not someone else’s dream, the latest sales pitch or infomercial.

Whether you are guided by life balance, integrity … prosperity, compassion, fun, creativity … being the best, harmony or courage… claim the values that feed “your” spirit. That is where real happiness lies.

Be true to who you are, and use your unique and incredible gifts to serve others.

So what do you value above all else? What do you absolutely, positively love to do?

- Let your own values be your guide.  
- Express your soul gifts in service to others.
- Show appreciation, and it will come back to you one thousand fold.

Use a consistent formula and you will get consistent results.

If you use a formula that maps to your unique definition of success, you will surely arrive at your desired destination. 
Have an awesome journey!

You simply can not create or achieve what you do not believe in. So start there first.

Whatever your goal, no matter how large or seemingly  insurmountable, you must first believe that you can create, attract and have it.

Convince yourself and know that your vision is absolutely possible.
For you have the power to choose what you believe by simply cultivating thoughts that support your vision of a perfect, business, workplace or lifestyle.

Ernest Holmes once said …

 … each is drawing from Life what he thinks into it.
To learn how to think is to learn how to live.

So, be mindful of what you think and say, for it defines what you
can accomplish and what you can attract in business and in life.   

If you want to cultivate more enthusiasm, more prosperity or harmony, you must first believe that it is within your reach.

Success comes when we believe we will succeed, and when we are willing to align our thoughts and actions with what we want!

Thoughts are so much more than things… they are the cause of things!
So believe first, then move forward knowing that you can do absolutely anything you can imagine! 

Have an awesome and thoughtful journey!

 Every moment in every day is an opportunity to live your dream. Within every moment lies the opportunity to make a real and lasting difference in your life.

There are 480 minutes in a typical workday and 960 waking minutes in an average day. 

So, you have 350,400 waking minutes in a year to do something  extraordinary  … something that has meaning and significance
to you on a personal level.

So what are you most passionate about? What makes your heart sing?

What would you do if you knew no limits, no fear and knew
you could not fail?

Every moment is an opportunity to do that one thing.

Refuse to be lulled into thinking that you’ll do it tomorrow. For tomorrow may become just another day of more of the same thoughts and actions that keep you trapped in a hypnotic routine  and on autopilot.

To be 100% alive, dare to dream BIG and then dare to take the actions necessary to move your dream forward.

For you are so worth every single step.

Choose to do it now and you will move positively forward toward your unique and awe-inspiring goals!

When you do, you’ll experience more joy in every area of your life, because you are letting your light shine as brightly as it can.

Just do it and have an awesome journey!
