Don't Just Survive - Thrive! :
Today I'd like to talk a little about why people aren't living up to their full potential. To many people have the attitude: If I can can just pay my bills, I'll be ok, If I can just lose a few pounds I'll feel better, If I can just get her to notice me I might be able to take her out on a date, Just two more hours of work and then I can go home. Forget that way of thinking! "You Gotta Thrive, Not Just Survive". You have to learn that, "The only limits we have are the ones we create."
You can accomplish anything if you really want it bad enough. To many people are stuck on just surviving. I hear it all the time when you ask people how they are, they say things like, I'm hanging in there, same sh@# different day, nothing much, same bulls#$4, WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU SAY THESE THINGS? I want to Thrive in Life! I want to wake up with new goals in my mind! I want to do new things and accomplish more and more. Remember you only get one life here on earth you don't come back for an encore. Don't blame others for what you have control over!

What Is Life
About?:
This is a question I hear a lot of people say and everyone has their own interpretation of what life is about. Some say life is just about having fun and when its over that's it. Some say life is supposed to be a struggle. Some even say life is about the journey, going places meeting people, discovering new things. "What is Life About" you may ask yourself? Well here's my opinion, look at the trees, why are they here? Look at the mountains, the rivers, the oceans, why do they all exist? They exist for us. So that's the answer! We are all here for one another. We think we can control the world. We worry about terrorists, a bad economy, we worry about our future. The truth is we have existed on this earth for over 4 billion years and we will continue to exist well beyond our lifetime. So the next time you think, "what is life about", its about existing for one another. "Remember we don't control the world, the world controls us."

You Are
Truly Blessed:
I'd like to talk today about being blessed. Throughout my life I have always had the attitude of knowing that I will succeed in what I want to have, it may not happen in the exact way I see it in my mind, but I know it will happen, and that's why it has happened over and over. You see, if you know without a shadow of a doubt that you are what you think you are, or youwill have what you want to, or you know what you believe in your heart then are are truly blessed!
I have always said "you become what you believe." So if you see yourself at the top then that's where you will be. Don't worry about all the things we have to deal with in life. I love it when Jesus said, "look at the birds in the sky, they don't live in fear worried where their next meal will come from", yet God feeds them. Go out each day with the confidence in knowing you are absolutely 100% truly blessed! |

Success In
The Making:
Today I'd like to talk about success in the making, what the secrets are to true success, and why one person succeeds and one doesn't. The people that succeed are the same people who are not afraid to fail. People who have an attitude of thinking their really not going to succeed, or they hope to succeed, wont succeed. I have clients that achieve their goals and I have clients that do not succeed. I always say "either make your dreams a reality, or just stay asleep!" Becoming a success in anything takes a lot of work and a lot of discipline. If you're not willing to do what it takes then forget it. There are no limits in what we can accomplish. The only limits we have are the ones that we give ourselves. For instance, if I told you to walk across the country you would say forget that, what, are you crazy! But then If I told you to walk across the country and waiting for you will be $10 million dollars in cash you would do it! You would plan every step, you would be driven, you would have your mind on that $10 million dollars. You see what I'm saying? Get hungry! Its time to get serious! Its time for success!

Keep Your Eye On This Prize:
This is an expression I use all the time. Too many times in life its easy for us to lose focus. Its easy to get distracted and fall off your diet and training. I challenge you all today that when the time comes and you don't feel like going to the gym, say to yourself, how am I going to feel afterwards?
Most of the time we have thoughts that run through our heads that say, "It's ok if I don't train today, I'll do it tomorrow", "It's ok If I eat this today, I'll start my diet tomorrow", "It's ok If I don't finish today, I'll finish tomorrow." Well folks with that attitude tomorrow will lead into the next day and the next day after that. In order to succeed, you have to keep your eye on the prize and your foot on the gas pedal!
