Become More


Do you spend time worrying about things that may not even happen?

Research indicates that 90% of what we worry about never happen, yet if you’re like me focusing on only the 10% is difficult to do.

Don’t let what you can’t control interfere with what you can. 

Focusing on that person that gets under your skin takes your focus off of giving your best to the person that needs your full attention. 

Worrying about what may not even happen can keep you from focusing on the moment right in front of you.

Worrying about 90% of what may never happen also keeps you from becoming.  Becoming more and becoming better. 

The 90% is just a distraction.  The 10% will be enough.  It will help you become better, wiser, and stronger.  It will help you become more.

I’m cheering for you.

Embrace The Uncomfortable

Change is hard.  Some days it starts first thing in the morning as you try to get out of bed on a cold winter morning. 

It is so comfortable under the warmth of the blankets.  You know that the moment you get out from under them it is going to be a shock to the system and it is going to be uncomfortable for awhile.

But what eventually happens?  You get used to being up, your body forgets about being tucked under the comfort of the blankets (hopefully), and you move on with your day.

The moment you accept the fact that change needs to happen, is going to happen, and that being uncomfortable for awhile is part of the process, the sooner you can move on with whatever changes may need to happen.

To grow, to be better today than you were yesterday, you need to accept the comfort in being uncomfortable.  If you are uncomfortable you have an opportunity to be better. 

Embrace being uncomfortable.  It’s the only way to truly experience the changes that you need and desire.

I’m cheering for you.

Be Like A Caddy

I enjoy golf, and if I’m home I usually watch golf on Sunday afternoon.  As I was watching this past weekend I started to really pay attention to the interactions between the golfer and their caddy.

I got to thinking, wouldn’t it be nice if we all had a caddy walking alongside of us during the day?  Better yet, maybe we could help those around us by being like a caddy for them.

Here were just a few of the encouraging words spoken by a few caddies.

“Love it buddy”
“Believe in it”
“Great job”
“You got this”
“Perfect. Do it”
“Go for it”

Words, simple words, spoken at the right moment instill confidence.  They show that they believe in their golfer.  At times one of the most important things that they do is getting them to slow down, and think before they act. 

In addition to all of the encouragement given one of the most important things that the caddy does is carry the bag.  They carry the load. 

You may need a caddy, but today maybe one of the most important things you can do is be like a caddy for someone around you. 

Encourage them
Instill confidence
Help them think
Carry the load

What you give, you eventually receive. 

I’m cheering for you.

Question Of The Day

Well is it?

Some days you may not feel like you make any significant progress, but if you can get up, get going, and move forward toward your dream, or even just one goal, you are closer than you were yesterday.

1% better.
1% more.

Multiply that 1% daily. 

Day by Day.

Moment by Moment.

Tomorrow’s goals and dreams may not happen without what you do today.
Get up and keep moving forward.

I’m cheering for you.
