5 Things You Can Do To Live A Life Of Excellence

By

[success]The secret of living a life of excellence is merely a matter of thinking thoughts of excellence. Really, it’s a matter of programming our minds with the kind of information that will set us free. ~ Charles R. Swindoll[/success] Making minor changes in your daily life will make a major difference to the ease with which you fulfill your dreams. Why settle for mediocrity when five simple changes can lead to a life of excellence. 1. Commitment If you’d have begun anything last year, or the year before you’d be twelve or twenty four months better at it than you are today. Don’t let that stop you.  Begin now.  But only commit yourself to what’s best for you. Don’t be misled by the opinion of others…their opinions are no more valuable than your own. Desire is what stirs your soul into movement, but it’s persistence, and a relentless commitment that…

Are You Your Own Worst Enemy? Free Yourself From Past Mistakes

By

[success]There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative. ~ W. Clement Stone[/success] Moving forward, freeing yourself from past mistakes and messes is a critical part of being happy. Sometimes our very thoughts and habits of action are our biggest enemies, preventing us from ever moving out of our comfortable, if miserable, slot in life. There might not be one clear path to happiness and success that fits all, but to head for new horizons means you have to be willing to stop selling yourself short and change the state of mind that’s keeping you where you are.

The Real Key To Being The Happiest Person You Know

By

The foolish man seeks happiness in the distance; the wise grows it under his feet. ~ James Oppenheim Yesterday I was simply happy to be me. I wasn’t looking for stuff to be happy. I wasn’t waiting to be happy. I didn’t need anything to be happy. Sometimes we forget that life is short and we waste it trying to be like someone else, or have what someone else has. It’s natural for us to always be seeking expansion and growth, but don’t let your desire for greater success blind you to who you are or what you already have. It’s all too easy to focus attention on comparing our life with another but what a waste; as we do this we diminish our own blessings.

A Smart Trick To Magnetize Abundance

By

If I’ve got a simple way to magnetize abundance, would you be interested in knowing it? Just in case you said yes, here’s a little story to illustrate the point. The other day one of my friends told me that I was easily pleased.  I’d been saying how grateful I was that his wife pointed me in the direction of a local store that carried my favourite makeup. Yes, I was effusive, yes I was grateful and I hadn’t realized until that moment that what he said was true…I was pretty easily pleased. Lots of things in life lead me to a feeling of gratitude…big things, small things, intermediate sized things, but the size of gratitude is always the same, GIANT sized. For years we’ve been reading about gratitude and the importance of it as a way to propel us out of the never ending and often negative stories we…
