You will loose much money chasing women, but will notloose women when chasing money.

Your purpose

Energy comes from having a purpose. Creativity flows from having a purpose.When you are clear about why, you will figure out how. Success is a function of thesincerity of the mission.

Without a meaningful purpose, action leads to disappointment and frustration. Yet when

focused upon a compelling reason, action always results in achievement.

Within you are real, authentic reasons why. Within those reasons you'll find greattreasure.

No one can separate you from your purpose. Nothing can take the power of that purposeaway from you.

Let your thoughts, your words, your perspective and your actions come from yourpurpose. With your life, you'll achieve many great things.

Act on who you are

When in doubt about what to do, chose the kindest option. When you're not sureabout how much to give of yourself, err on the side of generosity.

When you feel the urge to do something nice for someone else, don't make excuses forwhy you can't. Just go ahead and make it happen.

Give your attention to your thoughts. And at the same time, pay heed to the intelligencewithin you that transcends those thoughts.

Without hesitation, go with what you know is right. Act on that little voice that may soundcrazy but that feels so true.

Everything you've ever experienced is embedded in your wisdom. Though you cannotconsciously remember it all, you can still allow it all to guide you.

Have the confidence to act on who you are and what you know, even if you sometimescannot explain why. Authenticity is always the best choice

Why is gratitude so very powerful? Because it keeps you connected to all the good thingsin your life.

Don't let the immense value that's already yours wander away because of neglect. Taketime to remember, take time to celebrate and be grateful, and take time to say thankyou.

Keep going

On the other side of the challenge there is a great reward. Keep going.When you've made the effort and cannot yet see the result, keep going. The very nextstep could be the one that brings you across the finish line.

When you become weary, remind yourself why you started in the first place. Connect withyour true purpose, and feel the energy begin to flow through you again.

Life's abundance swirls around you in every moment, and it seems close enough to touch.The possibilities just keep on coming, day after day, filled with the promise of fulfilment.

Yet to live that abundance, and to make the best of those possibilities real, you must takean active role. Life can be anything you make of it, yet you must be the one who makes ithappen.

The way to bridge the gap, and to bring your dreams to life, is to act on them. Takepositive, productive, effective action every opportunity you get, day after day and yearafter year.

Your choice

You can resent the amount of work you have to do. Or you can get busy and use it asan opportunity to create great value.You can see each setback as a fatal blow to the achievement of your dream. Or you canlearn from all the ups and the downs and make the achievement of your dream all themore valuable as a result of each challenge.

You can pounce upon each bit of bad news and extrapolate it to portend the end of theworld. Or you can celebrate the fact that bad news is news only because it is so relativelyrare.

You can decide that everyone is out to get you and withdraw from life in fear. Or you canjump right into the tangled, confused, exciting and delightful mixture that every momentbrings, and find real treasure in it all.

You can sit and wait and complain and convince yourself that things will never get better.Or you can enthusiastically jump forward and make life the best it can be.

Whatever the situation, whoever is involved, you always have a choice. Choose each timeto express the authentic beauty of your being, and live in a world where life is so verygood.

Find a way

Find a way, for it is there. Find a way, for you are here to find it.What appears impossible does in reality give birth to great opportunity. Find a way, andyou discover the beautiful truth about yourself.

Many can teach you and yet only you can truly be you. The most wonderful things thatyou can imagine are precisely what you are destined to bring to life.

See that the challenges actually enable you. Understand that the obstacles form afoundation upon which achievement is built.

Go ahead and fully feel the white-hot energy and marvellous uniqueness of being you. Goahead and let your own special beauty explode into every corner of life.

All is glorious

All is well. In fact, all is more than well -- all is glorious.The only reason you're able to even notice the discord is because there is so very muchharmony in life. Peace is so all-pervasive and gracefully abundant that it doesn't mindallowing a little conflict to happen.

Imagine the immensity of this planet as it spins perfectly through space for billions ofyears. The extent of goodness and rightness and power cannot begin to be fathomed.

There is always so much for which to be infinitely thankful. What you perceive as trouble

is nothing more than a bit of interesting flavour in the endless perfect bounty ofexistence.

After all, life is how you look at it. Look at it all as an opportunity for grace and joy andfulfilment.

Every single time you feel like complaining about how bad things are, there's a muchmore powerful option. Visualize how truly good life can be and then take a bold,enthusiastic step in that direction.

Every situation is a situation in which you can choose to prosper. Every challenge helps toform the structure upon which you can build grand and meaningful success.

When anything pushes against you, choose to let it push you up. Every occasion is youroccasion to brightly shine.

Celebrate the consequences

Do you pay a price for your actions, or do you reap great rewards from them? Do youfear the consequences of what you do, or do you eagerly await those consequences?

It all depends on the actions you take. The destination at which you arrive is determinedby the direction in which you most consistently travel.

Instead of cursing the negative consequences, simply avoid the actions that cause them.Instead of wistfully wishing in vain for the things you seek, just take the actions that willbring those things into your life.

Everything in your life is the result of one thing or another. You can't avoidconsequences, yet you can determine which ones you get.

Put yourself in a position to celebrate the consequences. With positive purpose, focus,

effort and persistence the very best of life's results can be yours.

Most of what happens to you happens because of you. Use your actions to move solidlytoward those consequences that you'll delight in celebrating.

Feel the way you choose

Whatever you feel on the inside, you will experience on the outside. Life reflects

back to you the way you most sincerely and persistently are.

9/90

Life changes because you are part of it. And you can always make it change for thebetter.

Every moment, a new world is being born. You can make the world more beautiful andfulfilling than it has ever been before.

As you experience life, so too do you create it and direct it. The perspective you choosedetermines the kind of world in which you live.

A positive and purposeful intention leads to effective, creative action. And suddenly,you've made the world a better place.

What kind of world do you wish to inhabit and experience? Now is the time, with all youare, to make it so.

Do something about it

Are you frustrated and burned out? What are you going to do about it?Is there something you really want to achieve? What are you going to do about it?

Have you just become aware of an incredible opportunity? What are you going to doabout it?

9


10/90

What are you going to do today, right this moment? What actions will you take to endyour frustration, to achieve your dream, to take advantage of opportunity?

Success and achievement depend not on how much you complain, or on your ability togarner sympathy from others, but on what you do. And right now is the time to start.

Go ahead and move beyond the frustration, begin to work toward the dream, and makethe most of your best possibilities. Go ahead right now and do something positive andeffective about it.

Tell yourself

What are you telling yourself that's holding you back? What are you telling yourself

that's preventing you from being happy?

What are you telling yourself that gives you permission to be less than your very best?What are you telling yourself that gives you an excuse for not taking action?

Every moment of every day you're interpreting the world for yourself, telling yourselfwhat it means and what to do about it. Each time you tell yourself something, you havean opportunity to make a lasting impact on your life.

So tell yourself yes. Remind yourself why you have chosen to step forward and giveyourself permission to do so.

Tell yourself that you can choose a life of joy and fulfilment right now. Tell yourself thatyou're fully capable of whatever you decide to achieve.

Take the opportunity to tell yourself, again and again, how truly outstanding your life canbe. And then thank yourself for the great advice as you enthusiastically bring it to life.

Living quality

The distractions will always be there, but the opportunities of this moment won't. As

compelling as those distractions might be, let them fall behind you as you act on yourbest possibilities right now.

The excuses for not taking action make a lot of sense, yet there is no real value in eventhe most reasonable, sensible excuse. Instead of being stopped by why you can't, beenergized by why you must.

The quality of your life is up to you, at all times, in all situations. You have the opportunityto creatively imagine an outstanding life for yourself, and then to bring what you imagineinto the reality of your world.

The excuses and distractions and setbacks and frustrations are all hopelessly insignificantwhen compared to your best possibilities. Stay focused on the good and positive things

Truly enjoy the place where you are, and you make it even better. Find joy in the momentyou're now living and you'll multiply the treasures that the moment can bring.

You won't hurt anyone else by enjoying who you are and what you're doing. On thecontrary, your own joy can bring much joy to those around you.

Instead of assuming that you must struggle, enjoy the process of movingthrough each challenge. When you choose to enjoy what you're doing, theeffort comes more easily and with greater effectiveness.

Decide that life is a joy and you'll find all sorts of ways to reinforce and build upon that

decision. The joy you seek is already yours, so let it flow freely from within you.

Give your life the power of joy right now, and always. For whatever you sincerely enjoy,you're able to easily and naturally master.

Interconnected

Taking positive action in one area of your life can lead to surprising improvements inmany other areas of your life. For you are one whole person, and anything you do makesa difference in everything you are.

It all matters and it all affects you. The life you experience is the sum of every thought,every word spoken, every gesture and every effort.

If you find it difficult to be positive about one particular area of your life, then beextraordinarily positive about other areas of your life. That additional positive energy willspill over into all of your world.

All the parts of your life are interconnected in ways that it's difficult to even imagine. Theresult is that there are always plenty of opportunities for taking positive steps.

You are responsible for your life and for the world around you. When you feel the fullextent of that responsibility, and connect it to your authentic purpose, you can do trulyamazing things.

Why would you want to accept responsibility for circumstances that are not ofyour making? Because responsibility gives you the power to change things.

If something affects you, then you have the opportunity to be positively and creativelyresponsible for it. Even if you didn't create the situation, you can still make the very bestof it.

Responsibility is not some burden that is heaped upon you. On the contrary, it is apowerful and effective tool for moving your whole world in the direction you choose.

Put discouragement behind you

Just as quickly and easily as you can become discouraged, you can let go of thatdiscouragement. The only power that discouragement has is the power you giveit.

Though the challenges are great, you are greater. For you can act and learn and adapt,and act again with even more effectiveness.

If you feel yourself sinking into the false comfort of discouragement, choose instead tostand up. Boldly take a few steps forward, lovingly recall your deepest purposes and yourmost treasured dreams, and put that discouragement behind you.

Though there is always injustice in the world, there is always even more opportunity tomake a positive difference. Though the challenges keep appearing, in each challenge isthe chance to create new positive value.

You can decide how your life will be. And you have the power to make it so.

This is your moment to pick your head up, put a smile on your face, and with a quicknessand determination in your step, move forward. Look toward your best possibilities, for youare here now to achieve great things.

Positive beginning

Would you spend your hard-earned money buying things you didn't want or need?Of course not.

So why would you spend any of your precious and powerful thoughts on things you don'twant? It makes much more sense to focus your thoughts on the positive, desirable thingsyou would like to create and expand upon.

The thoughts with which you choose to fill your mind have a direct influence on thepeople, things, and events that surround your life. Every moment, with each thought, youhave the opportunity to point your life in a specific direction.

The way you think about life plays a major role in the way your life unfolds.Again and again, choose those thoughts that resonate with a life that's rich,joyous and fulfilled.

To be

Remember the things you knew before you ever knew anything. In those things youwill discover who you truly are.

Pay attention to what you know without a doubt but cannot explain. Be reasonable whileknowing that there is also much value beyond reason.

Find treasures in the rich world of material and sensation, and delight in them. Yet keepin mind that those treasures are mere tokens of the real treasure that is your veryexistence.

Be joyful for everything and for no reason at all. The joy that endures is the joy that flowsfreely from your desire to experience it.

Realize that you are even more beautiful than the most beautiful thing you can

comprehend. Because you are able to bring all that beauty to life.

What an amazing thing it is to be. Live today in your own unique and miraculous way.

Think a new thought

Think a new thought, and the whole world changes in front of your eyes. Adopt a newperspective, and you enter a new reality.

What seems to be out there is precisely your perception and interpretation of what's outthere. And as such, you can truly make it whatever you choose.

At your core is a purpose that provides an endless source of energy. It is new and brightand sparkling in every moment.

Seek to know the truth of that purpose, and notice how it feels so very right. Let it be thelens through which you see all else.

17


18/90

Think it

The portion of reality that you act upon is the portion of reality that you think about.So, what are you thinking about?

What do you think this day will bring? What do you think you'll be able to accomplish?

What do you think you deserve? What do you think is the best way forward?

The way you think is the way you are. Choose those thoughts that empower you, andinspire you, and compel you to give your best effort in moving forward.

Imagine in rich detail the story of your own upcoming success. Think itintensely and you'll soon be doing it.

too.

The joy of being

If you're willing to admit it when you're wrong, you'll be able to improve and get it right.When you accept that you don't know it all, there's so very much that you will learn.

Spend more time listening than you do talking, and it will add greatly to theeffectiveness of what you say. Let go of the need to prove how smart you are,and your wisdom will deeply grow.

Keep in mind that there are many other points of view, and that will make your ownperspective more valuable. Assume that there's room for improvement, and theimprovement will surely come.

Stop worrying so much about who or what you appear to be. Instead, put yourenergy into fully expressing the unique and beautiful person you truly are.

There's no need to strive when you're fully alive. Let go of the trying and live the rich,exquisite joy of being.

Understand

Seek not only to know, but also to understand. In a world that is awash in information,true understanding remains a rare and precious treasure.

The knowledge and information you collect is indeed valuable. The understanding yourefine from that knowledge can be priceless.

Information tells you what has happened. Understanding enables you to knowwhat will come as a result.

18


19/90

Understanding gives you a clear picture of opportunities that others cannot even glimpse.The effort you put into understanding brings great value to your life and your world.

Listen, learn, question, experience, think and understand. Do the work that turns ordinaryfacts into golden wisdom.

Have the courage and discipline to think for yourself. And out of the raw information willcome real understanding.

Take action

Success does not come to those who merely have great ideas. Successcomes to those who have great ideas and who follow through on them.

Your carefully crafted plans bring value only when you put them into action. The best ofintentions are useful only when you follow through on them.

During the course of the day, many thoughts cross your mind. Yet just as easily andquickly as those thoughts come, they recede, so it's crucial to begin acting on the bestones right away.

Before a valuable and meaningful intention gets pushed out of your mind by anotherthought, do something about it. Set the process irrevocably in motion and begin to bringthat intention to life.

When you think of doing something, there's a reason why you have that thought. Listen

to what the thought is suggesting, and take action immediately.

Don't let the idea or the intention or the vision slip away. Take action and make it real.

Value in the giving

There have been times when the kindness of another person has changed your life forthe better. And it's easy to see that kindness has the power to reach far beyond itself.

In the most difficult of moments, kindness heals and reassures. Kindness gives comfort,and hopes where there was none before.

Kindness can inspire confidence. It changes for the better the perspective of those ittouches.

When you seek to make a difference, kindness is a great place to start. Just thesimple desire to give it is all you really must have.

So give kindness, freely and without hesitation. Whether you get it back does not reallyeven matter, for its true value is in the giving.

19


20/90

Live with kindness, and you'll always see life's very best possibilities. For in kindness, isthe heart of who you truly are.

There's no reason to be dismayed by what others say or do. If they want tobehave negatively, that's their problem, and not yours.

No person knows what's best for you more than you do. No person knows whatyou're capable of accomplishing more than you do.

Certainly other people can support and encourage you, and can be of great help to you,and you to them. See the good and the positive in those around you and connect with it.

Pay no mind to those who would drag you down with their criticism. There's no need tolet someone's opinion stop you, for it's just an opinion.

You are who you are, regardless of what others think, say or do. You are unique andworthy and filled with great possibilities.

Focus your energy, your awareness and your efforts on those positive possibilities. Youare here, you are capable, and with your head held high you know that the best is yet tocome

Treasure that is already yours

Before you seek more, ask yourself this. Are you doing all you can with what youalready have?

Gratitude is a powerful and undeniable way to bring more abundance into yourlife. By making full use of what you have, you're expressing gratitude in a sincere andeffective way.

Relax

One great way to maintain your focus is to let go of it for a while. To make yourefforts more effective, get away from them for a little bit.

Intense focus requires energy and enthusiasm. To replenish that energy and enthusiasm,make it a habit to take a real break.

Up to a certain point, the more you work the more you'll accomplish. Eventually though,you'll reach a point of diminishing returns.

Enjoy the challenge of working with intensity. Then spend some time relaxing, away fromall that work.

Be productive, be effective, be focused and committed. And then regularly sit back andtruly enjoy the fruits of your efforts.

For optimum performance, keep yourself balanced. Allow your efforts and your relaxationto positively contribute to each other.

The opportunity to respond

You have the opportunity to respond to whatever happens in your world. And the wayyou respond determines the quality of your life.

What matters most is not what happens to you. What mattersmost is the way you respond.

You can respond any way you choose. So choose those positive, empowering responsesthat will move your life forward.

It may seem in certain situations that a negative response is the only possible response,and yet that is never the case. Always, a positive response is just as possible, just asrealistic, and a whole lot more beneficial.

Get clear on your purpose and know your intentions. Respond to whatever happens in away that moves your life in the direction you have chosen to go.

For the opportunity to craft your own response to each event in life is indeed theopportunity to set the direction of your life. Remember always that you have a choice,and use that choice to add great value to your world.

Create value

You don't need anyone else's permission or assistance to create value. All it takes is

the desire to make a difference.

Turnaround

Can you imagine transforming your greatest frustrations into valuable and lastingaccomplishments? When you can imagine it, you have what's necessary to begin to do it.

Some of life's greatest achievements come from understanding what's holdingyou back and acting to turn it around. There is great transforming energy infrustration, and that power is just waiting to be put to good and positive use.

A great day

Today is a great day to be alive. The world is filled with positive possibilities, and thosepossibilities grow more numerous with each passing moment.

Sure, there are challenges and disappointments and frustrations. And within thosechallenges, within those disappointments, are some of the greatest possibilities.

Today is a great day to be alive because today you can make things happen. You can seta goal, chart a course, take stock of your situation and use it to create new value.

Pay no attention to those who claim to know how things will be. Your future is yours todetermine, and this is the day to make it great.

You don't need anyone's permission to live with joy and fulfilment. You don'tneed to wait for certain circumstances to line up in a specific way.

For today is a great day to be alive, to be productive, to be effective and to fulfill yourbest possibilities. And now is the moment to enthusiastically get busy making it allhappen.

Extra effort

Alittle extra effort will go a long, long way. When you've already done what must be

done, go ahead and do just a little bit more. Once you've established some good, solid

25


26/90

momentum, make full use of it. When you're in the mode of accomplishment, keep oncranking out those accomplishments.

Beyond your original goal is the opportunity to raise your performance to a higher level.With a little extra effort you can get a lot of extra rewards.

Just an extra one percent can make the difference between being the best and being thesame as all the rest. So every time you get the opportunity, give that extra one percent.

Persistent effort will get you almost there, and a little extra effort will carryyou over the top. Once you think you've done all you can, find a way to do alittle more.

Rather than focusing on how little you can get away with, give your attention to howmuch you can accomplish. Build on top of what you've already created and the resultswill be spectacular.

Enough

What you have is enough. What you can do is enough. Right now you haveenough time, energy, knowledge, skills and resources to point your life in anydirection. Once you begin the journey, as you need more, you'll find ways to bring itabout.

It's silly to wish for more when you could instead be making full use of what you have.Put your energy into creating the life you choose to live.

Allow your inner self to be exactly where you would most like to be. And the rest of youwill soon be there too.

An endless abundance is yours if you simply choose to accept it. Fully accept whatalready is, and suddenly you have it all.

Instead of wishing for more, bring to life the very best of the dreams that are alreadyyours. Know that you already are enough, and discover just how magnificent it is.

In good time

Life always comes to you in good time. There's no need to rush it, and nothing to begained by attempting to hold it back. Some things will take longer than youthought they would. Go ahead and get them completed anyway.

Some things will arrive sooner than you anticipated. Go ahead and deal withthem when they do.

Make good and thoughtful use of every moment that comes your way. Peacefully

let go of any anxiety or resentment about how little time you have or how much time ittakes, and simply give your best as time continues to flow.

26


27/90

In good time, you'll get it done. In good time, you'll look back and know without a doubtthat you have indeed been moving forward.

The day ahead is filled with opportunities for joy and fulfilment. Give yourself completelyto each moment as it comes, and in good time you'll fill your world with richness.

It's ok

It's ok to be who you are. It's ok to desire what you desire. In fact, it is more than ok. Itis truly wonderful.

For in those things that bring you joy, you'll find your greatest opportunities to give to life.In the genuine reality of who you are, you'll discover how to be the best you can be.

What means more to you than anything? Honestly explore that question, and you'llconnect to a powerful, undeniable purpose.

You are a beautiful person with a perspective on life that is uniquely yours. Explore andfulfill the special possibilities that are alive in you.

Be who you are and create the unique joys that are yours to give. The beautyof life is what you know it to be.

Kindness continues

Give kindness and it keeps going. Give kindness, and it continues long past theoriginal expression.Kindness inspires more kindness. A little bit of kindness can go a long, long way.

But why stop with just a little? Offer great kindness, again and again, and you trulychange the world.

Think of how good it feels when someone is kind to you. Make it your goal topass that feeling along to others every chance you get.

Give kindness and something amazing happens. Your own strength, confidence and joywill increase.

Add some kindness to your world today. And see the positive benefits as it continues togrow beyond you.

27


28/90

Again

When you've successfully accomplished something once, you know you can do itagain. So do it again. It required a lot of work the first time. Yet you rose to the occasion,

did that work, and created something of value.

It will take more work to do it again. And this time you have the opportunity toaccomplish even more.

You know without a doubt that you can achieve. So make the choice right nowto do what you know you can do.

What a shame it would be to simply rest on your accomplishment. For much of the valuein any accomplishment is in the opportunity it provides to reach even higher.

Go ahead now and make full use of that opportunity. Achieve again, and again, and lift

your world higher with each day.

In this moment

Do not wait to be beautiful. Be your beautiful, authentic self right now.If the world offers up negativity and despair, surprise the world by giving back love andkindness. Send out the energy that you wish to experience, and you are certain toexperience it.

Happiness and fulfillment are alive in this moment. Allow them to flow freely andcreatively through your life.

Fall in love all over again with the miracle of being. Your imagination is great andmagnificent, yet it cannot hold even a fraction of the possibilities.

You'll do, say and act your best when you feel your best. Feel the limitless wonder of thisvery moment.

Be beautiful, alive, aware and filled with the energy of the possible. In this moment, isevery dream made and fulfilled.

Opportunity in anything

Sometimes you can exercise a great deal of control over where life is going, and othertimes you get caught up in forces beyond your control. However, you can always controlthe way you think and feel and respond.

Learn to appreciate the enormous power that comes from being able to frame anythingthat happens in an empowering light. Experience how it frees you from the grip of fear

and anxiety.

28


29/90

It's great when you can cause events to go your way. And yet even when things don't goas you wish, that can be just as great.

Because you have the profound and powerful ability to uncover opportunity in anythingthat happens. Every day, every situation, every twist and turn of life's road gives yousomething valuable with which to work.

Imagine what would happen if instead of being upset by the disappointments, you couldchoose to be encouraged by them. The absolutely wonderful fact is, you can.

This is a day, this is a moment in which you can move forward no matter what. It's a verypowerful place to be.

Purposeful focus

Is there something that's distracting you and keeping you from staying focused? Therewill always be some distraction or another, but you never have to give in to thosedistractions. The way to focus on anything is to make it important. If you need morefocus, then make the object of your focus more personally meaningful.

Make a conscious connection between whatever you're doing and your deepest reasonfor doing it. Clearly know why, and the focus will be strong.

When you feel your focus begin to slip, reaffirm and reconnect to your purpose. Maintain

the focus by maintaining the meaning that's behind it.

When your desire is strong enough, no event or circumstance will have the power todistract you. Give your efforts a reason why, and you give yourself a reason to persist.

Live with authentic purpose. And you'll act with powerful focus.

Feel like it

Those mornings when you're reluctant to get out of bed are the very days when you'llgain the most by going ahead, getting up and getting started. The challenges you'vebeen avoiding are the very ones that will compel you to make the most progress. Stepeagerly forward and do the hard stuff. Jump in and tackle the difficult challenges.

Life is about making a difference. The bigger the challenge is, the more of a positivedifference you can make.

Don't focus on the discomfort you may have to endure. Instead, go ahead and feel the

extreme sense of satisfaction and accomplishment that come from moving forward anddoing what must be done.

29


30/90

Instead of forever regretting the missed opportunities, wake up and seize thoseopportunities. Make full and productive use of the priceless moment that is right here infront of you.

If you don't feel like it, choose to make yourself feel like it. By the time the day is done,you'll truly be glad you did.

In an instant

In an instant, you can go from discouraged to joyful. In an instant, you can change fromlazy to ambitious. In the blink of an eye, your whole outlook on life can profoundlyimprove. In one small moment, disappointment can be transformed into positive resolve

and commitment.

When you are ready to change, and willing to change for the better, you can do it just likethat. Are you ready?

In an instant, you can improve your attitude. And that change of attitude will affect yourwhole world.

A moment ago, you may have been discouraged, or resentful, or frustrated, or miserable.Now, you can be whatever way you choose to be.

Choose now to be positive, productive, effective, ambitious, and filled with enthusiasm for

all the great things life has to offer. Feel the power of this positive instant, and keep itgoing strong.

Make a promise

Make a promise to yourself and keep it. There's something that you've alwaysdesired, and now is the time to make it real. You are fully capable of reaching whatever you decide to reach. Promise yourselfsomething wonderful, and then do what it takes to fulfill that promise.

Stop groaning about how unfair life is. Start making life into something grand and joyful.

Every problem is an opportunity to make an improvement. Pick a particularly vexingproblem and promise yourself that you'll get triumphantly beyond it.

Find a dream that positively inspires you and promise yourself that you'll reach it. Make aserious commitment to the richness of your own life, and follow through on thatcommitment.

30


31/90

You can do it if you'll simply choose to do it. Make a promise to yourself, and make ithappen.

Keep building

If it were quick and easy you would have already done it. The fact that it is difficult andtime-consuming means you're doing something truly worthwhile. The value of anyachievement is built with the time and effort you put into it. Keep going, keep building,keep at it and you'll truly have something of great value.

It is often difficult to stay positively focused. And it is always worth the trouble.

Sure, it would be much easier to do nothing. Yet by doing nothing, you create nothing.

Instead, step forward and do the difficult work that must be done. With each effort, youare adding more value and substance to the achievement.

Feel the satisfaction as you continue the difficult and rewarding work of building thatachievement. Know that the value has already started coming to life.

Root out the problems

Beware of quick-fix solutions that end up being worse than the problems they areintended to solve. There's nothing to be gained from a cure that is worse than thedisease. And there's certainly nothing to be gained from a solution that merely masks ordelays the problem without addressing the underlying cause. When there's a problem inyour life, get to work rooting out the core of that problem.

Facing a challenge requires effort, and yet that effort is necessary only for a relativelyshort time. Running from the challenge requires ever-increasing effort that has no end.

The sooner you start working through a problem, the more quickly you'll have thatproblem behind you. The earlier you deal with the root cause of the problem, the moreeffective your efforts will be.

Truly eliminating the cause of the problem does indeed take more work than quicklyfixing the symptoms. Yet once the difficult work is done to remove the problem, it's gonefor good.

Do the work to root out each problem at its core. And your efforts will bring lastingrewards.

31


32/90

Reach beyond yourself

The higher you aim, the higher you will go. Push yourself a little bit past what youknow you can do, and you'll discover new skills and abilities. If it seems that you don'tever get much done, maybe it's because you're not giving yourself enough to do. Makeyour dreams and ambitions big enough to be positively compelling.

Be genuinely thankful for how far you've already come, but don't rest on your previousaccomplishments. Honor and appreciate those accomplishments by using them as astarting point for even greater success.

You are intelligent, adaptable, creative, flexible and effective at getting things done.Fulfill your destiny and satisfy your purpose by giving yourself plenty of valuable,

worthwhile things to do.

Delight in discovering how much more you can accomplish. Thrill to the challenge ofmoving successfully through new, uncharted territory.

Continue to reach beyond yourself. Know the joy and confidence that come from growingever stronger.

Great fortune

Remind yourself often of how fortunate you are. The more you realize and recall yourgood fortune, the more good and valuable things you can do with it. Your true fortune haslittle to do with the size of your bank account or your material assets. The greatestfortune you have is life itself, and the opportunity to live each moment with awarenessand effectiveness.

There is endless fortune in your ability to choose what to do with each moment. There islimitless fortune in your capacity to feel love, awe, compassion, gratitude and pure joy.

Spend some time each day thinking about how truly fortunate you are. Let the warm

feeling of that magnificent fortune permeate your awareness.

Your very existence has such great and irreplaceable value that it's impossible to evenimagine the full extent of it. Resolve today to make good use of all that value.

The great fortune of your life is here and now. Live it with joy and meaning.

32


33/90

Create the best

Calm your thoughts and be peaceful. Know that all is well, all the time. This moment isalready the best it can be, and is everything it can be. Accept it and move forward.Do not fear the worst, for your thoughts of fear give great power to whatever it is youfear. Instead, sincerely expect the best and you create the best.

Know that the positive possibilities are always present, and your eyes will be opened tothem. Everything that is, can be put to good use in moving toward your highest vision forlife.

As life unfolds in each moment, new opportunities are being born. No matter what has

already happened, choose to create the very best you can imagine.

This is the day that you have to work with. Live with peaceful purpose, and use it tocreate a magnificent world.

Make yourself heard

Make progress instead of promises. You are not known by the promises you make,

but rather by the value you create. Actions do indeed speak louder than words. Everypositive, productive action builds your credibility and polishes your reputation.

The way to be impressive is to do impressive and valuable things. Instead of wasting yourtime posing as a successful person, get busy with the real and persistent efforts that willtruly make you successful.

True accomplishment is infinitely better than the mere appearance of accomplishment.The way to gain the sincere respect and admiration of others is to make positive andvaluable things happen.

Those who shout loudly and yet do nothing will eventually be ignored or laughed at.Those who work quietly and consistently end up gaining the greatest influence.

Instead of just talking about it, step forward and do it. Without saying a word, you canmake yourself heard with the quality of your actions.

33


34/90

The power of feelings

You can feel good for no reason at all. In fact, you can choose to feel any way you wishat any time and in any situation. Whatever you desire, you desire because of the way youthink it will make you feel. Whatever you avoid, you avoid because you don't wish toexperience the feelings that you assume it will bring.

Yet the fact is that your feelings are not controlled by your circumstances. Those feelingsare determined by how you choose to respond to various situations and events.

Your feelings in any moment are yours to choose. You can choose to feel the wonderfulreality of your most treasured dreams long before those dreams have been fullyachieved.

And when you do, you put yourself in a positive, powerful place from which you cansurely make those dreams real. When you feel good for no reason, you immediately beginto create the reasons.

Choose each day to feel the way you wish to feel, no matter what is going on around you.And let your feelings pull you toward the fulfillment of your destiny.

Choose a destination

In order to make progress, you must know exactly where you intend to go. Choose aclear and specific destination, and then you can get busy going there. Having a vagueidea of where you want to go is not going to do you any good. Know exactly where youdesire to be and you're already well on your way there.

The dreams that are compelling are the dreams that will motivate you to take whateveraction is necessary. And the most compelling dreams are the ones with rich andmeaningful details.

The goals you will achieve are the goals you can fully describe. Give real life andsubstance to your goals and you'll quickly begin to realize them.

You can choose any destination you wish for your life. So choose one that thrills you andcompels you to be the best you can be.

Delight in the rich details of where you are headed. And you'll work your way steadilythere.

34


35/90

Over and over

The actions, thoughts and words that become a permanent part of you are the onesyou choose to repeat over and over again. Doing something once will certainly bring

some kind of result, and doing it repeatedly will multiply its power many times over. Youcannot lift a thousand pounds all at once. Yet you can lift one pound a thousand times.

In the repetition of your thoughts and actions, there is great power. Choose to makecomplete and purposeful use of that power.

Add immense leverage to what you do by doing it again and again. Give great strength toyour actions by persistently repeating them.

Nothing of value is ever accomplished in an instant. No skill is ever fully developed in asingle day.

Take the time to make the effort over and over again. That time and those efforts willbring great rewards.

Use what you have

Don't waste a lot of time making judgments about what you have. Instead, put it touse. Stop complaining that it's not enough or that it's not fair. Just get busy and make the

most of it.

Fighting against what already is, will only slow you down. Instead, make good andproductive use of what is, whatever it may be, and you'll find many ways to moveforward.

If you wait until things are perfect before taking action, that day will never come. Usewhat you have, as flawed and imperfect as it may seem, and you'll soon be makingmassive improvements to it all.

Don't worry about comparing what you have to what others may or may not have. Justconcern yourself with doing the best you can do.

Start from where you are, with what you have, and persistently do what you know youmust do. There is no limit to where you can go.

Something wonderful

Something wonderful will come from this. Something of great value is already taking

shape. In every disappointment, there are fertile seeds of accomplishment. In times ofpain, there are opportunities arising for magnificent joy.

35


36/90

When you are making your way through the dark and lonely valley, keep going. Keepgoing and you'll soon reach the place where you begin to climb out and up toward themountaintop.

Allow your difficulties the opportunity to give you strength. Let the tough times make thegood times much more rewarding than they otherwise would have been.

Be truly thankful for each opportunity to more fully appreciate life's goodness. And beconfident that the goodness is always there.

Know that something wonderful will come from this. And it will.

Success is happening

Success is not the absence of failure. Success is what happens when you choose to

move on beyond failure.

Learning what not to do is an important part of knowing what is most effective to do.Every mistake can spotlight a way to improve.

Frustration and disappointment are painful for a very positive reason. The pain pushesyou in the direction of achievement.

What does not work gives you a realistic understanding of what will work. Whatever stopsyou can no longer stop you when you see it clearly enough to work your way around it.

Make your first instinct to celebrate rather than to judge. Celebrate and quickly find auseful outlet for whatever you've just been given.

Every up, every down, every moment makes you more able and creative and effective.See all the ways that success is happening, and allow achievement to flow freely intoyour world.

Continue to imagine

Imagine once, and you have a glimpse. Imagine continuously, again and again with thepower of your passion, and what you imagine becomes real.

Reality is imagination that has persisted through every doubt. Imagination focusesenergy and substance into the expression of its specific vision.

What can you imagine? What will you continue to imagine until it becomes a part of yourworld?

Imagination has no limits. The future is as bright as you sincerely imagine it to be.

It takes courage and integrity to hold on to what you imagine. For imagination takes youplaces you've never been.

36


37/90

Choose to go to places truly meaningful and magnificent in your imagination. And you'llsurely make the world a more beautiful place.

Live the beauty

This day is filled with more treasure than you could ever think to desire. Live thebeauty as it comes.

All the gold and diamonds in the world cannot buy a single moment of precious time. Yetyou have that very moment right now.

Act on your best dreams and watch joyfully as they become real. Choose from amongendless possibilities the ones that bring sweet fulfillment.

Love sincerely, and be loved. Encourage, and be encouraged.

Delight at your view from the center of a perfectly balanced reality. Give the gift of yourown positive thoughts and efforts, and watch as their influence spreads throughout yourworld.

This golden day, this precious moment has sprung to life all around you. Give and receiveits most profound treasure.

Enough already

If you always wish for more, you will never know the peace and satisfaction of havingenough. Realizing that you already have enough is one of the most profoundlyempowering thoughts you can think.

Fully enjoying the first piece of cake does not prevent you from having a second. Yetobsessing over whether or not you'll get another piece will always prevent you fromenjoying what you have.

It's great to be ambitious and to create new value. Yet that is best done from the positionof power that comes with having enough.

Being satisfied does not mean you must be complacent. Being satisfied enables you todraw strength from your desires instead of letting them enslave you.

Discipline, integrity, commitment and effectiveness flow naturally from a strong sense ofhaving enough. When you're truly accepting of where you are, your eyes are fully open to

the best possibilities.

37


38/90

Understand that you already have enough. And you'll tap into the power of peacefulpurpose.

Feel success

The world does not owe you joy or pleasure or fulfillment. Rather, the world gives youample space in which to create as much joy, pleasure and fulfillment as you wish.

Those who find a way to enjoy whatever life has to offer are the ones who get to enjoythe very best that life has to offer. It's a matter of choice and the choice is up to you.

It is easy to feel sorry for yourself, and not at all effective in moving you forward. Yet justas easily you can instead choose to feel joyful for yourself.

The way you feel has a powerful influence on what you do and how much you achieve.And the way you feel is whatever you decide to feel.

Instead of struggling to work against your feelings, put your feelings to work for you.Truly and authentically feel success, achievement, fulfillment and joy, and you'll naturallyput those feelings into effective action.

Yes, you most certainly can feel precisely the way you wish to feel, at any time, in anyplace. Feel the life you wish to live, and you're solidly on your way there.

Let yourself be yourself

If you are resisting life's goodness, then working harder at it will push that goodnessfarther away. Instead, learn to let go and to allow.

Simply generating more activity and energy will not help you if that energy is pointed in anegative direction. Choose to re-direct all the energy and awareness in your life toward

those things you value most.

If the results you are getting fail to bring fulfillment, do not seek to merely create moreresults. Instead, find the path that truly fulfills your purpose.

There is nothing to be gained from making life needlessly difficult. See the truth that lifeis beautiful, and align your energy and your actions with your very own expression of thattruth.

When you let yourself be yourself, richness flows easily and effortlessly and naturallythrough every moment. Your greatest accomplishments come from who you are.

Let yourself be yourself. And you'll be as rich as anyone can ever be.

38


39/90

Drop the pretence

One of the most painful types of conflict is also the easiest conflict to avoid. It is theconflict you have with yourself.

When the person inside is in conflict with the person you are on the outside, it drains yourenergy and damages your credibility. Yet in an instant, you can be rid of that conflict.

All you have to do is be completely honest about who you are. Drop the pretense, andyou rid yourself of a heavy burden.

Stop pretending to be someone you're not. For even if you could manage to beconvincing at it, you would gain nothing of real value.

That real value lives in the authentic person you are. In your sincere and deeply feltpassions you will find life's most delightful and fulfilling treasures.

There's no need to live in conflict with yourself for even one moment longer. Let the trueyou shine through, and fulfill the wonderful possibilities that are uniquely yours.

New territory

Look in the direction of what you think you cannot do, of what you've been reluctant to

undertake. You'll see a pathway that leads to new levels of success and achievement.

You've already done all the comfortable and familiar things. To create new value, step outinto new territory.

You've already successfully adjusted to countless new situations. You've already beenable to move forward through all kinds of challenges.

Now is the time to make use of that ability again. Now is when you can boldly ventureinto new, valuable, productive, effective territory and raise yourself to an even higherlevel than before.

The fact that the challenges are daunting, serves to make the rewards that much greater.You have what it takes to meet those challenges and reach those rewards.

Open yourself to the opportunities of living richly and making significant, continuingcontributions to your world. Follow the possibilities into a bright, new territory ofachievement and value.

Transform excuses

When you find yourself making an excuse, take a good, careful look at that excuse.What if you could transform it into a powerful reason for stepping forward?

Whatever serves as an excuse for not taking action can instead serve as a compellingreason to go ahead and act. It all depends on how you choose to see it.

Stop and listen to the excuses you make. You'll realize that they're only excuses becauseyou cast them as such.

The events and circumstances in your life are what they are. What makes themmeaningful to you is the way you choose to see them and respond to them.

There are plenty of perfectly reasonable excuses for not moving forward, if you decide toview them as such. Yet it is just as realistic to see those same factors as reasons to take

action without delay.

Whatever may be stopping you could be pushing you forward. Are you ready now toachieve?

Time flows on

The passage of time does not matter to you. It only matters to the body you inhabitand the material artifacts with which you surround yourself. Wisdom grows upon itself inan ever-expanding manner. There is always room for more, and there always will be.

Beauty becomes more beautiful as you connect more intensely to it. Life increases infulfillment as it is lived.

Time does not add or subtract or create or destroy anything on its own. Time merelyspaces out your perception of what is always real, and gives you the opportunity toexperience it all to the fullest extent.

As quickly as the old times flow away from you, new times flow toward you. Each newmoment brings even more possibilities than the moment that has just passed.

Time flows on. And as it does, you can continue to fill your world with the best that lifecan be.

Powerful or desperate?

You can either be desperate or you can be powerful. How would you prefer to be? Youcan ignore your responsibilities and continue to let yourself fall more and more behind,until you have no choice but to desperately take action. Or, you can push yourself a littlebit more each day, grabbing every opportunity to make progress, and put yourself firmly

in control of your own circumstances.

Use time as it comes, to be productive and creative and effective. The more wisely youuse your time, the more control you'll have over all the aspects of your life.

Get in the habit of doing what is best instead of merely what is easiest. In fact, seek outthe difficult challenges and deal with them on your own terms rather than waiting untilthey find you.

If you wish, you can come up with plenty of excuses for not taking action. But thoseexcuses will add nothing of value to your life.

Instead, go ahead and do what must be done, then take the initiative and do even more.Live life on the highest level by working your way upward each chance you get.

Live in truth

What is true will persevere. What is false will eventually be consumed in its owncontradictions. It may seem easier and more convenient in the short term to disregard orto hide from what you know to be true. Yet you cannot really hide from the truth.

Instead of striving in vain to deny or to fight against what is true, put yourself on the sideof truth. By fully acknowledging and accepting what is true, you can put that truth towork to achieve whatever you wish.

Whether it is deceiving yourself or deceiving others, deception requires much time andenergy. And because deception never really achieves anything of value, it is a greatwaste of your precious life and resources.

Instead, put that time and energy into successfully dealing with the truth. After all, you'llhave to deal with it eventually, and the sooner you begin the more you'll be able toaccomplish.

Live every moment in truth. Align yourself fully with the truth, and bring great power toyour purpose.

Silent reflection

For just a while, calm your thoughts. In this moment, simply be. There is much in yourlife, and there is much more to come. Yet you have always been, and you always are,more than enough.

For a moment, let go of the way you appear and the things you've done. Feel the truthand power of who you are.

In silence, there is much you can know. Beyond thought, there is much you can

understand.

Touch the person who always lives inside the person you are. Be immersed in the beautyand wonder of being.

Feel the strength that is always there. And know that whatever may come, all is well.

Top yourself

When you've done well, set your sights on doing even better. If you've successfullyreached high, reach even higher. Make it your business to top yourself. Make it your goalto exceed your own best efforts.

As great as it has been, what you've already finished achieving will not drive you forward.

Before you reach each goal, be ready with another one.

The possibilities for growth and achievement have no limit. When you're going strong,there are plenty of ways to get even stronger.

One of the very best things about success is that it serves as the basis for greatersuccess. Don't let your success go to waste by simply sitting on it.

Find a way to top yourself. You've done great so far, and now you can do even better.

Positive direction

The magnitude of your next step does not matter nearly so much. What really mattersis the direction. To turn your life around, you must first turn your focus around. To movetoward your goals, you must first be facing them.

Just a small step in a positive direction is a step nonetheless. Just one small positivethought has the power to turn you away from years of negative actions.

Every moment is a choice. And every moment you can choose to orient your life in apositive direction.

You don't have to take big strides, for the small steps will get you there just as reliably. Just make sure that each thought, each action, each feeling, however insignificant itmight seem, points toward where you desire to go.

Maintain a positive direction, and no matter what else happens, you'll always be makingprogress. Keep yourself pointed in the direction of your dreams, and every day will bringyou closer.

Enjoy the achieving

Consistent achievers enjoy more than just the achievement. They also enjoy theprocess of achieving.

Those who attain the biggest rewards do not merely seek those rewards. They also cravethe challenges that they must go through in order to reach those rewards.

Winners understand that the goal, as valuable as it may be, is only a small part of theoverall achievement. They know that the real substance of the achievement is in theachieving.

In fact, you cannot truly benefit from the reward unless you have worked through thechallenging process to attain it. To truly enjoy the achievement, you must also enjoy theachieving of it.

Sure, that process of achieving will have its unpleasant and disagreeable aspects. Yet

think of how great it will feel when you purposefully transcend them all.

Let go of your judgment about what's pleasant, what's comfortable, and what's not.Sincerely enjoy the journey of achievement, and you'll surely reach the goal.

Your interpretation

Nothing can get you down unless you let it. Don't let it.You see those parts of life that you choose to see. Choose to see what inspires andempowers you.

The life you experience is your own unique interpretation of what it means to be alive.The possibilities for joy and enrichment are endless.

Life is what you decide it to be. All the stuff on the outside is trivial compared to the truepurpose that lives on the inside.

Even the smallest thing can inspire you when you're ready to be inspired. Anycircumstance can be your opportunity to move forward and to add true richness to yourworld.

Live the joy in every moment. It is always yours to choose.

Everything you have

There is so very much available to you. In reaching for your dreams, make use ofeverything you have. Don't be dismayed or embarrassed by what you have to work with.

Instead, work with whatever you have and it will grow more useful and effective witheach effort.

Don't place a judgment on your abilities before you even put them to use. Go ahead, getto work, and see how quickly your skills increase.

Look back at the good things you've accomplished in the past. That power ofaccomplishment is still with you, so choose now to put it to use again for even moreexciting and compelling purposes.

Think of all the great ideas you've had but have never followed through on. Now is whenyou can make the best of them come to life.

The challenges are great and yet the value that flows through your life is far greater. Useeverything you can, and you can accomplish anything you choose.

undeniable chance to really live. It is up to you to take advantage of that opportunity. It isup to you to make the most of this day, and to live the great, unique experience this dayoffers.
