It’s About You

It’s not about this, that, or them.

It’s About You.

Your job isn’t about becoming great at something.

It is to decide who you are and who you want to be.

Your primary responsibility isn’t to produce results. 

It’s to choose standards and live by them. 

Make clear decisions.

Bring the person you decide to be to the things you choose to do.

You will achieve what your choices and actions deserve.

I’m cheering for you.

Today’s Checklist

What are your goals that need to accomplish today?  Do you have them written down where you can see them?

When I have a lot to accomplish I operate off of a checklist and cross items off when I complete them.  It always helps me see and feel the progress. 

Accomplishing things for your day to day job is important, but focusing on a few things beyond the day to day is impactful for you and those around you.

Add the following to your checklist for today, tomorrow, and every day.

Live with gratitude ✔️

Control what you can control ✔️

Strive to be better today than yesterday ✔️

Make the best of your life ✔️

Don’t lose faith in the future ✔️

Check these off your list.  They are worth completing.

I’m cheering for you.

Better Today

We are constantly in the process of becoming. Becoming more and becoming better.

Our greatest challenge is to not let ourselves believe that we have “arrived” after we win the big game or are at the top of the podium.

Yes, there is time to celebrate the victories and we may exhale a little bit, but our biggest challenge is setting our sites on another goal and then getting back to work to be better and become more.

Our greatest competitor is not standing beside us or across from us.  Our greatest competitor is looking at us in the mirror every day when we get up. 

We also answer to that same person in the mirror at the end of the day. 

At the end of today what will your answer be to the question “are you better now than you were at the start of the day?”

Only you will be able to answer that question.

Be Better Today and Become More.

I’m cheering for you. 

The Lives You Touch

“My life shall touch a dozen lives before this day is done,
Leave countless marks for good or ill ere sets the evening sun,
This is the wish I always wish, the prayer I always pray;
Lord, may my life help other lives it touches by the way.”
-Anonymous

You often recognize the influence and impact you can have on those close to you and those you work or interact with every day.

But what about those “one and done” interactions? The clerk at the convenience store? The waiter when you go out to eat?
The person you pass coming out of the grocery store?

Every interaction that you have today matters. With every interaction you leave a little bit of yourself and you make a choice.

You make a choice to make experiences meaningless, and even miserable, or you can give them a smile and help to make their day.

Your life will touch dozens of lives today;
may you help them in some way.

I’m cheering for you.
