How will you beat yesterday?

Love the latest Nike ad out right now.

What are you doing today to beat yesterday?
We're all capable of a little more -- a little faster, a little higher, a little stronger, a little more. And when we look at all of the little things we've done, we'll see the big things we're doing. - Nike

Wednesday's Words- 'Uncover the Richness'


Uncover the Richness

Your life is inherently rich on many levels, and yet your own negative thoughts and feelings can cover up that richness. The more negativity you let go of, the more goodness you allow into your experience of life.
 Let go of your need to judge, your habit of fear, and your desire to take offense, and uncover the richness. Choose to forgive, to act with courage, and to understand, and feel that richness as it fills your life.
Stop struggling to justify and express your negative impulses. Instead, enjoy floating freely and peacefully in your own sense of goodness. 
Delight in your own richness by giving of it to your world. Experience the extent of your good fortune by living it with love and generosity. 
Instead of obsessing over the moment’s shortcomings, celebrate life’s richness. Look beyond your minor concerns and see your major positive possibilities. 
The immense richness of your life is always within your reach. Let go of the little negative things and experience that richness in big and wonderful ways.

Wednesday's Words- 'Live What Matters'

Live What Matters

Find a way today to do something that truly fulfills you. You have unique dreams, desires and values, so live them. 
It’s not selfish to listen to yourself. In fact, what’s truly selfish is to keep your highest desires hidden and unfulfilled. 
There is a way, right now, to live some aspect of your life in the best way you can imagine. Imagine it, feel it, and do it, now. 
Give respect to what matters. You owe it to life to be your best, so do what makes you feel your best. 
Pay attention to what’s practical and sensible, but pay more attention to what’s meaningful. Be reasonable while also being fully alive and true to your purpose. 
You are here on this beautiful day, so enjoy the beauty in your own special way. Live what matters, now and always. 
— Ralph Marston

Food for Thought

While browsing on Instagram came across this little gem. A great daily reminder.


“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
