One To Ten

Be generous with your thoughts.

When those who express kind, constructive, supportive thoughts are quiet, then our collective mind is taken over by those who spew overwhelming amounts of the opposite.

We may only be one, but we are connected to ten.

And so are they.

Every Choice Counts

Every interaction is an opportunity:

  • To choose kindness > cruelty
  • To choose connection > division
  • To choose grace > haste

I hope you’ll fully capitalize on the bountiful opportunities of your day.

Before You Judge

Unless you understand every single aspect of another person’s life, stop judging.

Instead, take that judgmental energy and turn it towards yourself.

Get your own thoughts, actions, and intentions perfectly aligned before you bicker, demean, and tear down others.

Precisely What’s Needed

Self-discipline is the crux of all lifestyle change.

Strategies, tactics, and techniques are mostly irrelevant without it.

Why? Because without self-discipline, they will eventually falter.

Self-discipline is precisely what’s needed when the going gets hard (which it will).

Self-discipline is precisely what’s needed when you face the fork in the road between: do it even though you don’t want to and let the ego come up with a totally viable and believable excuse so you don’t have to.

Self-discipline is precisely the difference between sticking the next move of the climb and falling from the boulder back to where you started.

Forcing Original

Don’t “try” to be original.

You already are original.

Just surrender to your originality.

And stop trying to force what’s already there.

Anything Will Do

The quality of your life is a byproduct of your standards and how well you hold yourself to them.

If you want to live your best life, you have to hold yourself to your best (realistic) standards.

This isn’t to say you can’t update and revise your standards as you grow, change, and mature.

It’s merely to say, if you don’t have standards set then anything will do.

And living your best life isn’t something that happens where anything will do.

Present In 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…

You know what time it is?

—A great time to relax that mind of yours.

Stop what you’re doing and name out:

  • 5 things you see.
  • 4 things you hear.
  • 3 things you feel.
  • 2 things you smell.
  • and 1 thing you taste.

Ground yourself into the present moment and enjoy the beauty that’s already here.
