Find Your Why

Saturday, October 24th, 2009

Today’s Positive Daily Thought | “Find Your Why”

Ok so I am going to sound like a network marketer or an mlm expert for a second…

In most aspects of life, and not just mlm, it is very important to find your why. Let me explain…

What and Why are two questions that most people never focus on. Ok, so some people actually focus on the what but probably almost 97% of the population doesn’t even know what I mean when I say “Find Your Why.”

Your What:

Your “What” is your dream…I’ll be honest, I have had 3 main dreams in my life and I’m going to share them with you now (don’t laugh).
1. I wanted to be a professional basketball player (as a kid I know now I never had the height or skills)
2. I wanted to be a professional “Hip Hop Artist”
3. I wanted (and still want) to be like “Anthony Robbins” or “Tony Robbins” as some of you may know him.

That was my “What” and I know the first two are kind of funny because of where I am in my life now, but the bottom line is I wanted to reach out and help others whether it be entertainment or whatever. That is Why I chose to do “Stay Boosted!“.

Your Why:

Let’s be honest here… (I promise I wont lie to you…lol)
Your “Why” and “How to Find Your Why” can be harder than what most people think it is.

Dig deep inside yourself and find “Why” you do what you do…

For instance, it could be that you want to become a professional singer because your grandmother always told you that she thought you would before she passed away or you may want to become a school teacher because you want to have an impact on peoples lives that will stick with them FOREVER!!

It may take a while (just to warn you) but (another disclaimer), you may actually get to tears in trying to “find your why” as most people do.  I say that because when you truly find your why, you will likely be so passionate about it that it will bring you to tears.

How to Succeed

Friday, October 23rd, 2009

“How to Succeed”… a question that many have asked over thousands of years.

The problem I see with peoples view of success is that as kids we are brainwashed to believe that money is the only way anyone can be successful. But lets actually think about this for a minute…

Is it truly the money that would make you a success? (and be honest with yourself)

Now that your brain didn’t work hard on that and most of us(including myself until I figured this out) said YES but honestly its not the money! Its not even the fancy cars or watches or even the mansion on the ocean with your own private beach.

The key to success (this is known as a secret) is not to focus on the money but instead focus on the emotional satisfaction in your life. I know people who are broke and live on food stamps(not that that’s a bad thing) and are successful in their own eyes because its not about money. Success and I’m talking about personal success is based on emotional satisfaction and how you feel about yourself at the end of every day.

Just Do It

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

“Just Do It” Ok so I know Nike started that but come on….I can say it too, right?

There has been many things that has led me to do this post. A lot of people, most don’t know I’m talking about them, has said something at one point that made me want to say “Just Do It”(sshhhhh…Don’t tell them I’m talking about them if they want to know they should read this..right?)

The problem is, too many people are saying “I wish I could…”

I use to say it all the time and to be honest with you I never accomplished ANYTHING!! I’ve always wanted to make money for me by doing my own thing and not for another company. Well after years of wishing and saying “I wish I could…” I just did it!!!

I didn’t pause or hesitate, I put my head down and got to work.

I am not saying this to impress you(trust me I didn’t make THAT MUCH!!) I am saying this to impress upon you, that if you just dream and have no plans to accomplish your dreams then all it is, is a dream.

STOP DREAMING!!! “Just Do It”

Set up a plan so that you can achieve your goals and reach your dreams!

You Have To Die

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

“You Have To Die” sometimes in order to be alive on another level.

When I was in the service I learned one of the most valuable lessons ever!  I was going through one of the most difficult times in my life.  I was dying inside and there was nothing I can do to change it.  Then one day I went and spoke to the chaplain of the ship and he told me “In life sometimes you have to die in order to live”

So I thought that I would share this lesson with you.  I am not saying to go commit suicide(as a matter of fact please don’t) but when you feel “Dead”(depressed,anxious,etc.) or should I say better known as “Hitting Rock Bottom” living a better life is so much easier!

I said all that to say this…

When It seems as if times are hard and you may have nothing to live for remember-”You Have To Die” in order to live a better life and feel alive on another level.

Please feel free to comment so I can know how you feel on this topic

Take the Trash Out

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

“Take The Trash Out” and I’m not talking about the black back sitting in your kitchen!!..lol

In life we allow what we see and hear to settle into our mind.  Not all of these things are bad, some are good.  But the bad stuff is called “The Trash”.

So I say “Take The Trash Out” “Garbage in, Garbage out”

Release the negative thoughts and sights from your mind and allow yourself to be at peace within.  It can be hard and sometimes it may even seem impossible. But “Impossible is Nothing”…       …if you believe it.

Let Go and “Take The Trash Out”

When You Feel Like Giving Up

Monday, October 19th, 2009

“When You Feel Like Giving Up” and I know from experience, it feels like the best thing to do.

But if you fall into that trap then you have NO CHANCE!  I have found that when you reach this “low point” it is best to step away.  Don’t give up just take a break and get your head back on straight before you continue on the journey your traveling whatever it may be.

When you find yourself pulling your hair out remember it is ok if you take a break but NEVER quit and NEVER give up!!!

Raise your Umbrella

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

“Raise Your Umbrella” because even when you believe it to be a “Beautiful day” the rain can still fall!!

I AM NOT TELLING YOU TO BUILD INVISIBLE WALLS AROUND YOURSELF!!

Because, that is not good even if it does keep you from feeling some pain. As cheesy as it may sound, in this situation, “Pain is Your Friend”!!

If you have been hurt in the past by an “ex-boyfriend” or an “ex-girlfriend”(husband,wife,or whoever) and you put a wall up to try and prevent having the same thing happen twice then your blocking yourself from who you really are!

I like to explain it like this…

I compare life to the “outdoors”, if you love the “outdoors” type stuff (ie camping, hiking, bonfires, and all this fun stuff) you will understand more (I believe).

When you face “issues” or “rain” as I like to call it. Its ok to raise your umbrella and still witness the rain. But running inside and ignoring the fact that it is raining, just takes away from being “outside”!

“Look at life as it is” Tony Robbins has said this many different times. “Don’t make it worse than it is and don’t make it better than it is”

I hope I made sense to you in this one because it is a serious topic…
