This Week’s Motivation…Happy April!!

MONDAY’S CUP OF MOTIVATION

When it comes to our lives, we hold on so tightly believing that if we over analyze, over think or worry more, then we can change things or make them better.  The truth is life happens and it moves in mysterious ways.  The quicker we realize that we cannot control everything, the quicker we can start to accept things as they are and make the best of the situation.  Feeling guilt about the past or anxious about the future will not change anything.  It will just affect the way we are right now.  We need to give ourselves a break and understand that we can use memories but we cannot allow our memories to use us.  Let’s choose to not let the past get in the way of our future.  The only thing that we have control over is us in the now.  The present is all that matters.  It’s a great day to have a great day.  This week, let’s remember that right now is everything.  Right now was once the future and someday it will be the past.  They say that life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it.  It’s true.  How we choose to spend this day is completely up to us.  Do we waste it regretting the past or worrying about the future?  Let’s choose to make the most out of today because this day will never happen again.  Every day is different so let’s focus on making this day count.  Let’s choose to be grateful for everything we have today.  Family, friends, our health.  They are here today and that’s all that matters.  Today is all that matters.  This is our time to shine.  Have an amazing day and a phenomenal week!!!

ENCOURAGEMENT…

The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of Attitude on life.
Attitude, to me, is more important than facts.
It is more important than the past, the education, the money,
than circumstances, than failure, than successes, than what
other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearance,
giftedness or skill. It will make or break a company, a church, a home.
The remarkable thing is we have a choice everyday regarding
the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past.
We cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way.
We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play
on the one string we have, and that is our attitude.
I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me
and 90% of how I react to it.
And so it is with you. We are in charge of our Attitudes.

There are only two days of the year in which nothing can be done.  One is called yesterday and the other is called tomorrow. That means today is the ideal day to love, to believe, to create and to live.
