Day 33 quote WIN 365

"Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will tale to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway." ~Earl Nightingale

How true that is! How often have you looked back at your life and realized if you had just started working on what you want you would have it? Also how crazy does time "feel" right now? Doesn't it feel like we are on fast forward most of the time? Like we are working at hi speed? Meditation and mindfulness help with that. Take time to be alone and in the silence every day.

Day 32 quote WIN 365

"The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle." ~ Steve Jobs

This is so true. When you find something you loved to do it does not feel like work. I used to hate getting up and going to work. Since I have found massage I love being at "work".

If you could love what you do, what would you do?

Day 31 quote WIN 365

"Do you want to know who you are? Don't ask. Act! Action will delineate and define you." ~ Thomas Jefferson

Ok so I had to look up delineate. Describe or portray (something) precisely. Indicate the exact position of (a border or boundary)

I have felt over the last couple of years that I have no idea who I am or what my role in this life is. As a mother, when you children grow up and your role changes it is quite confusing. I guess most of the time I am left with this 'what now?' feeling. So I "work" more. I changed my morning routine, I started looking at my life differently. I still have those what now moments but then I do something.

What have you done to cope with changes in life?

Day 365 quote WIN 365

"Cut your excuses in HALF and DOUBLE your action around your goals." ~ Robin Sharma

When you are working towards a goal, whether it be something like saving money or changing a habit, the more time you work on it the quicker it will happen. Sounds simple right? We get in our own way so many times it is like we try to set ourselves up for failure. Sometimes it feels like we are always reaching, always trying and then just falling short. With the Law of Attraction you have to BELIEVE that what you desire is already yours. Sometimes the action you need is just to take a few moments and sit and visualize yourself with what you want. I'm not talking about sitting around all day pining and being sad that you don't have it. Sit and feel what it would be like if you had it. Every morning I sit and visualize my Float Spa, I walk around the various rooms, sometimes I move things around, I talk to my employee (yes, lol I know 😆) that I love to work with. It is beautiful! But I feel it. I know it is already mine I just have to catch up to it.

What goal are you working towards? Can I help you come up with a plan or a visualization? Message me or text me, we can talk about it. Or put something on the post maybe we can ALL work on it.

Day 29 quote WIN 365

"What's the point of being alive if you don't at least try doing something remarkable." ~ Anonymous

I think just being alive is remarkable lol but maybe we should make sure we do things that make us "feel" alive. I know I have had long periods of my life where I felt like I was just on auto pilot and years would go by and I would look back and think "what did I do?!". I would get up, go to work, come home, cook supper, sometimes clean, go to bed, get up the next day and do it all again. There was not much joy in my life. I loved (and still do very much) my family but I did not feel like I had a purpose. I am still not doing all the things I want to do but I have plans. Definitely going to try that new paddle board out this summer ☀️.

Day 28 quote WIN 365

"I am who I am today because of choices I made yesterday." ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

Quotes like this keep popping up for me. You can't change the past but the choices you make today, which will be the past, will determine your future self.

Day 27 quote WIN 365

"You cannot dream yourself into character; you must hammer and forge yourself one." ~ David Henry Thoreau

I am not sure I like how this one is worded either. I guess Becoming the person you want to be is work but no the hard labor and toil we would associate with a hammer. This life should be fun and joyful. We should look at everything (including ourselves) with child like wonder. Some days are not as easy as others. We have to listen to our inner dialog to change the outer appearance. If you are unkind t9 yourself that will be reflected in your outer world.

Day 26 quote WIN 365

"Vision without ex*****on I just hallucination." ~ Henry Ford

If you just keep dreaming about that life you want but never do anything to do it you will never get anywhere. I am a completely different person today than I was years ago because of steps I took whether intentionally or unintentionally. And I keep moving forward, I keep making the steps that I need to make to have the life I have always wanted.

Day 25 quote WIN 365

"Action is the foundational key to all success." ~ Pablo Picasso

It is funny before I looked up the quote today I thought I need to be "doing" better. I have all the tools, I keep reading all of these books, I have really great advice for other people but I only apply some of it to my life. I have been getting better at remembering to stretch, journal, and being more grateful. And sometimes doing more means doing less. Less phone time, less TV time, less digital time which leaves more time for you to get to know yourself better without the distractions.

What do you think?

Day 24 WIN 365 quote

"Two Core Abilities for Thriving in the New Economy 1. The ability to quickly master hard things. 2. The ability to produce at an elite level, in terms of both quality and speed." ~ Cal Newport

It may be to early for me to wrap my mind around this quote lol. I can see how being able to do hard things quickly and effectively could improve your life. You always want to do your best at every thing you do, why half ass it when you can donit right the first time? Lol
