MONDAY’S CUP OF MOTIVATION: VOL 353

Darren Hardy is an amazing coach and motivator. He gave some great advice the other day. This advice is perfect for business relationships and personal relationships. Who we spend our time with has a profound influence on our life. The people we associate with will not shove us in a certain direction but they will nudge us ever so slightly over time. We become the combined average of the five people we spend our time with. Who we spend our time with determines the conversations that dominate our attention, the observations we make and the attitudes and opinions we are being introduced to. Eventually, we start to eat what they eat, talk like they talk, read what they read and think what they think. Since who we spend time with has such a huge impact on our success, let’s find people better than us. Let’s find people who have been where we want to go. Who have accomplished what we dream to achieve. Whatever area of life we want to improve on, find people who represents the success we want, the relationships we want, the lifestyle we want to accomplish and let’s spend more time with them. As Jim Rohn used to say, “Don’t join an easy crowd; you won’t grow. Go where the expectations and the demands to perform are high.” When we push ourselves to grow, we change. As always, keep moving forward!!

ENCOURAGEMENT…

The five rules of life

1.    Be kind to others, know that other people are doing the best they can with the resources they have.

2.    Be kind to yourself, YOU are doing the best you can with the resources you have.

3.    Never stop growing and striving for more from yourself.

4.    Be willing to let go and FORGIVE, yourself and others.

5.    SMILE, it’s all working out as it’s supposed to.

GREAT WORDS TO LIVE BY…

Surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and thinkers, but most of all, surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don’t see it yourself.

Edmund Lee

Your life is in your hands. No matter where you are now, no matter what has happened in your life, you can begin to consciously choose your thoughts and you can change your life. There is no such thing as a hopeless situation. Every single circumstance of your life can change.

You can’t win in life if you’re losing in your mind. Change your thoughts and it’ll change your life.

Tony Gaskins

Happiness is not a destination. It’s a way of life.

Life is an echo. What you send out, comes back. What you sow, you reap. What you give, you get. What you see in others, exists in you. Do not judge, so you will not be judged. Radiate and give love and love will come back to you.

The person you will be in 5 years is determined by the people you meet and the books you read.

You attract what you are, not what you want. If you want great, then be great.
