  • 9 Ways to Take Control of Your Life

    Today I want to help you Take Control of Your Life.  Sometimes we might feel like LIFE is out of control or forces outside ourselves are running the show.  But, use these 9 strategies to take the wheel and start controlling your life in every area. 

    And, PLEASE share this show with at least one person you feel would benefit from its message.

    Here are the 9 strategeis for taking control of your life...enjoy

    1-Take Good Care of Yourself- It's much easier to be positive when you are eating well, exercising, and getting enough rest.

    2-Remind Yourself of the Things You Are Grateful For- Stresses and challenges don't seem quite as bad when you are constantly reminding yourself of the things that are right in life. Taking just 60 seconds a day to stop and appreciate the good things will make a huge difference.

    3-Look for the Proof Instead of Making Assumptions- A fear of not being liked or accepted sometimes leads us to assume that we know what others are thinking, but our fears are usually not reality. If you have a fear that a friend or family member's bad mood is due to something you did, or that your co-workers are secretly gossiping about you when you turn your back, speak up and ask them. Don't waste time worrying that you did something wrong unless you have proof that there is something to worry about.

    4-Refrain from Using Absolutes- Have you ever told a partner "You're ALWAYS late!" or complained to a friend "You NEVER call me!"? Thinking and speaking in absolutes like 'always' and 'never' makes the situation seem worse than it is, and programs your brain into believing that certain people are incapable of delivering.

    5-Detach From Negative Thoughts- Your thoughts can't hold any power over you if you don't judge them. If you notice yourself having a negative thought, detach from it, witness it, and don't follow it.

    6-Squash the "ANTs"- In his book "Change Your Brain, Change Your Life," Dr. Daniel Amen talks about "ANTs" - Automatic Negative Thoughts. These are the bad thoughts that are usually reactionary, like "Those people are laughing, they must be talking about me," or "The boss wants to see me? It must be bad!" When you notice these thoughts, realize that they are nothing more than ANTs and squash them!

    7-Increase Your Social Activity- By increasing social activity, you decrease loneliness. Surround yourself with healthy, happy people, and their positive energy will affect you in a positive way!

    8-Volunteer for an Organization, or Help another Person- Everyone feels good after helping. You can volunteer your time, your money, or your resources. The more positive energy you put out into the world, the more you will receive in return.

    9-Use Pattern Interrupts to Combat Rumination- If you find yourself ruminating, a great way to stop it is to interrupt the pattern and force yourself to do something completely different. Rumination is like hyper-focus on something negative. It's never productive, because it's not rational or solution-oriented, it's just excessive worry. Try changing your physical environment - go for a walk or sit outside. You could also call a friend, pick up a book, or turn on some music.

  • When You Argue for Your Limitations You Get to Keep them with Les Brown

    So many people complain about their circumstances but do nothing about them.  Even worse, there are many of us that accept that our lives are driven by cicumstances outside our control.

    Today my goal is to inspire you to start pursuing your dreams in a much greater way.  I want to motivate you to bet on yourself and stop accepting the hand that you've been dealt in life.  You have the ability to create and change your life, but you have to be willing to stop accepting your limitations. 

    You must be willing to argue for your dreams as much as the limitations you face in your life.

    Thanks for listening today.  Have an amazing day.

  • Take a Chance at Doing What You Love

    I'm really excite to share this topic with you today.  So many of us worry about failing in life.  As a result we don't take chances and we continue to work at job we don't enjoy, doing things that we are tired of doing, and maintaining a mediocre life.

    Jim Carrey gave a commencement address back in 2011 where he made a statement that I absolutely loved.  He said, "you can fail at what you don't want, so you might as well take a chance on doing what you love."

    I really think we can learn a ton from that statement.  Take a chance on pursuig your dreams. Take a chance on doing what you love.  Bet on yourself, and you will reap the rewards.

    Thanks for listening.
