Inspiration: “The quality of the imagination is to flow and not to freeze” Ralph Waldo Emerson

Be: (positive confession) I Am Fluid.

Do: (first steps) Today, release the tension from your process. Take the time before proceeding to your next meeting, your next activity, or even perhaps, to dinner with your spouse to first visualize.  See yourself making the perfect speech, the most rhythmic of movements, or the words that resonate “I love you” over and over again.  Then just do it without over thinking it.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I perceive and pre-perform my actions I have the path to make my imaginations reality.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Have you ever had a paralysis of analysis?  A situation where fear or anxiety caused you to freeze instead of flow.  Instead of worrying about what could go wrong start seeing what WILL go right!

Inspiration:   “The best we can do is size up the chances, calculate the risks involved, estimate our ability to deal with them, and then make our plans with confidence.”   Henry Ford

Be: (positive confession) I Am Calculating.

Do: (first steps) Today, count the costs involved with whatever it is you want to pursue.  There is nothing more frustrating than getting started with a project and never finishing it; on the other hand there is something rather fulfilling and empowering in completing what you set out to accomplish.   Therefore, establish a budget for your finances and stick to it, write down the required courses and study time necessary for a degree or specialty you want to pursue, and make it a point to specifically set aside consistent blocks of time to invest in your family.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I hammer out a concrete plan of action to achieve my goals I have the blueprint for success.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

By taking some of the “guess work” out of your day to day life you will effectively reduce your stress level, lower feelings of anxiety and fear, and cut down on one of the biggest causes of frustration.

Inspiration: “Let him that would move the world, first move himself.”  Socrates

Be: (positive confession) I Am a Mover.

Do: (first steps) Today, look at your motivation, your purpose.  Does it move you? Does it propel you into action?  If not, you can never expect it to move others either.  If not find that noble purpose that sends you into action….and by the way you can start reaching for it in your present situation. Changing your job, your location, or anything else about your physical surroundings won’t make a difference if you fail to change YOU.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I develop the mission for my life it will move me and I will move others.

Be, do, and have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Inspiration: “Only by contending with challenges that seem to be beyond your strength to handle at the moment you can grow more surely toward the stars.” Brian Tracy

Be: (positive confession) I Am a Contender.

Do: (first steps) Today, acknowledge the internal and external foes you have yet to conquer.  Every hour there is someone or something contending for your loyalty, your agreement, your affection…..your soul.  There are many battles you have already won, they are no longer in question; but what is your plan to defeat the issues that show up at the door of your mind day after day, month after month and year after year.  Now is the time to develop the battle plan and take the steps to overcome every last one of them.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I wrestle down self doubt, fear, procrastination, and (insert the name of your biggest internal enemy) I establish the mindset necessary to win at this game of life.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Inspiration: “The inner speech, your thoughts, can cause you to be rich or poor, loved or unloved, happy or unhappy, attractive or unattractive, powerful or weak.”  Ralph Charell

Be: (positive confession) I Am Attractive.

Do: (first steps) Today, understand that what makes someone attractive has more to do with what is going on, on the inside than the external.  Attitudes shine through and cause others to be drawn to you. Before you work on your physical features tailor make you thoughts and attitudes for success

Have: (making dreams reality) As I fix wrong thought processes and straighten out crooked attitudes I have the look of someone others want to be around.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Whether you realize it or not fear and anxiety on the inside are revealed in your external attitudes and demeanor.  Get a grip on the thoughts and mindsets that cause you to harbor such feelings and your ability to succeed will shine through!

Inspiration: “Winning isn’t always finishing first. Sometimes winning is just finishing.”  Manuel Diotte

Be: (positive confession) I Am a Finisher.

Do: (first steps) Today, make the determination that you will finish what you started.  Anything worthwhile will come against opposition, both internal and external, to its completion; therefore, it is up to the author to steadfastly and systematically go about the tasks necessary to bring about the fulfillment of the original vision.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I cultivate the mindset of a finisher I have the ability to complete things others felt were impossible.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Once you learn how to finish, you won’t be afraid of tackling new endeavors.  Think about all that you can accomplish with the obstacles of anxiety and frustration removed!

Inspiration: “The secret of getting ahead is getting started.  The secret to getting started is breaking your complex overwhelming tasks into small manageable tasks, and then starting on the first one.”  Mark Twain

Be: (positive confession) I Am a Starter.

Do: (first steps) Today, stop letting the size of your vision overwhelm you.  One bite at a time, one step at a time, and keep plugging away at the smaller, yet still important, details that combine to make the whole greater than the sum of it’s parts.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I get going and allow the inertia of my activity to propel me forward I have the momentum to complete any task, no matter how big it looks at the start.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!

Don’t let fear of getting started prevent you from reaching your dreams.  Break the power of anxiety by diving into the activies that will propel you toward your vision.

Inspiration: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Proverbs 18:21 (KJV)

Be: (positive confession) I Am Well and Rested.

Do: (first steps) Today, when you are tempted to use that phrase to describe the way you feel after a long week, the one that starts with sick and ends with tired, STOP.  Put a guard over your mouth and allow life to pour out of it.  Before criticizing someone recall the positive impact they have had, the difference they have made in your life, and commend them for it.  Praise your children at least four times as often as you upbraid them, tell your spouse what they have added to your life before adding to their honey-do list, and tell yourself the things you tell someone you really love.

Have: (making dreams reality) As I consistently allow life giving words to come out of my mouth I will stop saying what I have and start having what I say.

Be, Do, and Have the best day of your life!  God Bless You!
