Jumpstart Your Day With A Positive Message
“When you arise in the morning, think of what a
precious privilege it is to be alive—to breathe, to think—
to enjoy—to love.”-Marcus Aurelius-

How do you…Refuel, Recharge & Refocus?
Neutralize the Energy Vampires… people who drain the energy and
excitementright out of you.
• Negative comments: “Did I tell you how unfair life is?”• Dream snatching: “You can’t do that!” • Shrinking devices: “What is wrong with you? No one around here cares how hard you work.”

Try These Steps to Break Away From The Energy
Vampire:• Look in the mirror. Are you being
negative or positive?• Confront and reform…tell the EV that he/
she is being negative.• Turn on the light…respond with love,
kindness and positive energy—negative energy is powerless in the light.
• Run-Run-Run…as fast as you can! You only have so much energy…don’t allow another person to drain it.

Your Reason for Being
“We must stop thinking of work as something imposed upon us by the need to make money, and think of it as something we have chosen toparticipate in because of its value in our lives and in the community at large.”

Stephen Covey Quote“It is in the ordinary events of every day that we develop the proactive capacity to handle the extraordinary pressures of life. It’s how we make and keep commitments, how we handle a traffic jam, how we handle untangling Christmas tree lights, how we respond to an irate customer or disobedient child. It’s how we view our problems and where we focus our energies.”
