Say Goodby to Negativity!!! Say Hello to Confidence!!!

This entry was posted in Blog on by

When we’re caught up in all of the swirling noise around us, we want things to be better right now! We don’t want to wait and we want to do everything at once in order to solve our problems! Here’s a secret; We can’t do that! It won’t work! Confidence, which goes hand in hand with belief is a key to moving forward. Not only confidence in the good things we bring into our lives, but even more importantly, we need to have confidence for the things we let go of too. After all, in order to move forward, we need to make space for new and more powerful positive influences. So, that means we need to let go of the things and people that are holding us back, the grudges and hurt feeling from the past that serve no purpose other than to make us feel sad, mad or frustrated. As we let go, we need to be confident that we are doing the right things for the right reasons and that somewhere down the line, what we’re doing will “pay off” in some positive way. (Keeping in mind that we might or might not understand that payoff at the time.) Be confident in your decisions! Some of them will be right! Some of your decisions won’t be! It’s up to you to be confident and believe that what you are doing at the time is the right thing, the kind thing filled with love and positive energy. Once you’re able to do that, then not only is it easier for the bad things and the negative people to leave, but it is also easier for the new positive things and people to come into your life. Once you allow that confidence to come into your life you’ll also notice that there’s not as much “swirling noise” around you and we’re not as concerned about getting a problem solved “right now,” because we’re more focused on the many new and positive opportunities that seem to be showing up!

FOCUS doesn’t just happen with your eyes!

      Focus is a word we take much too lightly! It’s what we focus on in life that moves us in a particular direction. If there is a problem, past or present, we need to focus on that problem or challenge, not the challenge or imagined “what if’s” that are surrounding it. Next, focus on what you can learn from that problem. That sounds kind of strange doesn’t it? Well unless we understand what the problem is, we’ll never be able to move past it! Shift your focus for a moment past that problem and actually feel how satisfying and wonderful it will feel once you succeed and get past it! Ask questions of yourself and of others and focus on their answers so you can learn. (When you focus and ask questions, you grow wiser.) Just like we need contact with other humans, we also need private time. Give yourself the gift of time so you can focus on what is important in your life, even if it’s 2 or 3 minutes. Focusing on relaxation is something you deserve!!! Don’t ever let others or yourself make you feel bad for allowing yourself the time to build a better you. Finally, human beings come “pre-wired” to be happy, it’s how we’re born. During our lives, we find every way possible to be negative but under it all, gratitude, & happiness is there waiting whenever we’re done ignoring them. This is where our focus needs to continually be trained on. Focusing on the positives, no matter how big or small will lead you to a direction that holds more positives and more successes.

Summer Travel=Unexpected Caring

This entry was posted in Blog on by

                    With Summer approaching, many of us will be packing the car or RV or our suitcases for a relaxing and fun trip somewhere. It might be a short trip or one that lasts the entire season. Sometimes it might be a vacation somewhere nice and sometimes, your traveling takes you to a whole different part of the world. So I thought I’d make a suggestion…   HELP SOMEBODY WHILE YOU’RE AT IT!   *****Take a few extra minutes when you’re planning your trip to see what schools or hospitals might be close by where you’ll be staying. Place a call to them or the local Chamber of Commerce or Rotary Club and ask them what they or someone in their town might need. I’m talking coloring books, soccer balls, toys for young kids, etc… a family or two who might benefit from a night out at a local restaurant. Then, when you travel…take something to give – supplies for that school, books for a Children’s Hospital, supplies for a day care center, a gift card for that family, etc… It won’t take that much time out of your travels and the cost can range from a dollar or two on up. (Maybe a night of fast food on your trip instead of going to a nice restaurant is all it would take). Think of all the good you might be doing. This can be done any and every time you travel whether a day trip or much longer. If your part of a group…school or church etc… Then what a great gift you’ve just given to an unsuspecting and much deserving recipient! I hope you might embrace my idea. Feel free to post it on your page, share this blog and of course tell your friends about it. Take pictures of what you did, share those pictures with us all on your social media pages. This way, a part of you will carry on wherever you go and maybe the idea will become a practice… Just one other quick thought… This idea isn’t one that can only be done if you’re traveling this Summer. If you’re staying home, you can do the same thing! Hospitals, School Districts, a teacher you might personally know, etc… would all benefit in your town.   Good luck and in advance of your good hearted gifts, let me say thank you…   Peace…     Gregg
