Knowing that everything first begins with a thought, have you taken time out to think today? We often run through our day without ever stopping to just think about things. All great ideas, inventions, technology, cool products, beautiful art… everything; it all started with a thought. Personally, I do my best thinking in the shower, it’s quiet and peaceful and I have come up with some great ideas in there! Take time out to process your thoughts and feelings, think about where you are and where you want to be, think about new ideas or businesses or just sit and think about that very moment. Some of the most brilliant ideas that shaped the world came from a quiet moment in thought. So today, make time to sit and be alone with your thoughts and Live Inspired Now!

If you are going to be afraid of something, be afraid of mediocrity! Be afraid of waking up one day with regrets for what you didn’t do. Be afraid to walk blindly through life without ever taking time to notice it’s beauty. Be afraid to sit idle while others play. Be afraid to lose love because you didn’t put yourself out there. Be afraid that you may never listen to your own inner voice encouraging you to live up to your potential. Be afraid to stay stuck in a dead relationship that leaves you feeling empty and alone. Be afraid to watch the seasons rapidly pass by your window while you focus on the TV. Be afraid that your body will get sick and old from not taking care of it. Be afraid that you will settle for mediocrity when you were born to be so much more. Today… fear mediocrity enough to go out and be amazing and Live Inspired Now!

Recently someone asked me to write a post about “losing power.” I replied that you can’t “lose” power but you can give it away! Nobody can lose their power, nobody has to be controlled by another person and what another person thinks, does or says… even if they think or say it about you! One thing I learned long ago is that when you do good things, when you live a positive life and dedicate your entire life to helping and serving…. some people STILL won’t like you. If I sat around feeling bad about the things I don’t control, I would spend my entire life feeling bad and what a waste that would be! You can never control what other people say, think, feel or do but you can control YOU and how you react to others. Do you really want to give your power to someone who doesn’t like you? Do you want that person to have such easy access to how you feel? Tell your ego to let it go! Ignore rude comments, avoid negative or hurtful people, distance yourself from family that doesn’t care about your best interest. If you spend your days angry, your world isn’t out of control… YOU are! Relax, let go of EVERYTHING that you have no control over (which is everything but your own thoughts and feelings,) don’t give away your power and Live Inspired Now!

Isn’t it time to give up on feeling bad? How long do you want to do this for? So many people sit around thinking about all the injustices that have occurred and how they were the victim in one way or another. So much so, that they miss the gift of the present moment. We have all fallen victim to some hardship before, what makes yours so special that you should use it as your reason for stagnation? It is time to let go and free yourself of past pain. People hold onto pain like a security blanket, well it’s not; it is your burial wrap! When you are thinking about what he did to you or why did you allow abuse, or if only I had…. you miss the beautiful baby’s smile, the kind stranger who held the door, the gorgeous sunset, the sound of the birds, the calm and stillness of a cool night, the warm glow of the fire, the tender moments between lovers and a million other opportunities to choose happiness.
Get PISSED off at destructive thoughts, yell and scream at them, tell them NO MORE, decide to be in a better place rather than falling into old patterns! When you start to think of past hurts, ground yourself… take a mental inventory of all the material things surrounding you. EX: I am safe in my car, I have my water bottle, my hat is on my head, my purse is right next to me and I am driving home. Take in the present moment by noticing your reality…. you are NOT walking in to catch your X boyfriend kissing another girl. Then, take deep breathes and remind yourself of the time and date. EX: Today is Monday, January 14 2013, I am healthy, free and have every opportunity for happiness. Finally, create a new memory! If you are driving, crank up some happy music or pull over, get out, stretch and take in the view! If you are at work, take a quick walking break and get some air or go and hug someone who needs it. I cannot stress enough how focusing on helping someone else is the BEST medicine for mental health!
So today, live in the INSPIRED now by being present in each moment and creating new positive memories for the future and Live Inspired Now!
