what chak de means :: comom lets do it
A bright idea, setting personal goals, working through a problem takes a combination of motivation, creativity, and positive thinking. If you put your best foot forward, even if the plan fizzles or takes a dramatic turn, it can certainly make a difference about how you view the ultimate outcome
Before you proceed ask yourself a few simple questions:
- What prompts you to get motivated? (...money, frustration, helping others)
- Is there something in particular that stirs your creative side? (...crafts, a project, a cause)
- How can you sustain a positive attitude?
#1 Passion
What are you passionate about?
Simply talking about your passions will soon get you nowhere. Talk + Action equals steps taken to a vibrant future!
When the habitually even-tempered suddenly fly into a passion, that explosion is apt to be more impressive than the outburst of the most violent amongst us. -Margery Allingham
#2 Commitment
Are you prepared to commit to yourself and to those you love?
Counter fear with a spirited commitment that comes from your inner essence. Your dreams can be realized, life can be different. Start amazing yourself today!
Commitment is what transforms a promise into reality. It is the words that speak boldly of your intentions. And the actions which speak louder than the words. It is making the time when there is none. Coming through time after time after time, year after year after year. Commitment is the stuff character is made of; the power to change the face of things. It is the daily triumph of integrity over skepticism
#3 Effort
Do you embrace the thought that each moment is perfect regardless of its outcome or are you stuck in the box?
If what you are facing seems too intense, challenge yourself to give it some effort at the same time as you take your thinking to a new level! If it's a disappointment learn from your efforts, if it's a gem celebrate and share your success!
Never give in! Never give in! Never, never, never. Never -- in anything great or small, large or petty -- never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. -Sir Winston Churchill
#4 Gratitude
What can you do to dwell completely in a place of gratitude?
Truly appreciating what you have by means of learning from your experiences in life and being joyful no matter what position you find yourself in, is gratitude personified. If you slip remind yourself, if you fall pick yourself up and dust yourself off...make it a habit to value the life you are living!
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful. -Buddha
#5 Rethinking
Are you flexible enough to look at all your options?
Stinkin' thinkin' has a way of quashing many a dream. Rethinking a situation does not have to be impossible, give yourself permission to summit that mountain, even if it seems unattainable, insurmountable!
Only the spoon knows what is stirring in the pot. -Sicilian Proverb
#6 Humor
So is truly laughing all that hard to do?
Day-to-day life warrants your time and attention. However, don't forget that loosening up, giving yourself breathing room, and honestly enjoying laughter even if it is directed at yourself can be life-giving and extremely relaxing!
Humor is a spontaneous, wonderful bit of an outburst that just comes. It's unbridled, its unplanned, it's full of surprises. -Erma Bombeck
#7 Belief
Do you believe that you are the architect of your destiny?
If you are breathing, you have life! The wonderful thing about having this gift is you have a choice to get fully involved or just be. Neither is right or wrong, it's about where you see and image yourself in life's accomplishments.
I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now? Reality leaves a lot to the imagination. -John Lennon
