#TheMorningShift: Where Shift Happens

Success is USING what you are strong at to add value to the lives of other people.  In this shift, we discuss several ways to get to success.  I'll give you a snippet.  1) Maximize your strengths.  2) Minimize soul sucking activities.  3)........well, you will have to listen to hear the rest.  Happy Listening!

Thank you for tuning in to this #Shift as we discuss the ways we can make matters worse.  We all know how easy that can happen....we might even find ourselves laughing through this one.  If you can't make something better, PLEASSSEEE don't make it worse.

Maybe you get weary.  Maybe you have days or even moments of weakness.  One thing I do know is that I have and I do get weary and also experience times of weakness.  Yet, I have a promise of Strength.  It doesn't come from those whose words cannot be depended on.  It comes from someone who keeps promises.  He said that His strength is made perfect in my weakness.

When you don't keep your word, you lose credibility.  There was a time when a man's word was all that was needed to guarantee a deal.  Now contracts are a must because people just don't keep their word.  I am grateful that my God keeps His Word.  His promises are sure.  If he said it, He will surely do it! Take a listen!

Listen, if you heard Part I, you must hear Part II.  When you are happy, you are committed to your goals. You are focused.  And when you are focused, nothing can compete with that, including distractions.  Take a listen!

Happiness is really more than an emotion.  It is a state of being.  When you are "Happy", you do things different from those who are not.  Yes.  It is true.  Happy people do things differently.  Take a listen to see what sets you apart from those you know.

Today, I encourage you to focus on your desires and not your fears.  This is the key to success! Whatever happens in your day, see it as an obstacle and not the end! REFOCUS!

Even when you are on the right track, you will run into some bumps in the road, trouble will rise, and adversity will come.  Take a listen to hear some signs that you are definitely on the right track and what you should be willing to sacrifice along the way.

Emotional and mental exhaustion happens not because we are doing too much but from not getting enough rest.  I know everyone needs you and are depending on you, yet you are no good to us if you are burned out. Take some downtime.  Take a listen to hear a few warning signs that you may be on the verge of burnout!

Some of us live our lives as though we are entitled to respect, privilege, and honor.  When we have an overwhelming sense of entitlement, it is exposed in the way we treat others: the way we talk to them and the way we respond to them.  Listen to the conclusion of this two-part series and uncover the pride that may dwell within us.
