Yes or Yes?

Yes is a simple word but has power built in.

The Webster's dictionary describes it this way: Yes is used to express agreement with an earlier statement or to say that statement is true

I was listening to motivational words by Matthew Ferry. I enjoy his programs and enjoy his words. He has you remember all the good in your life right now and to say YES with determination and power. You feel uplifted as you are doing this exercise and during the day.

It's good to remember the good. It's also great to put positive power behind your words.

Power, is an interesting word. Think of a ball point pen. There is no power in the pen itself. It can sign a declaration of war and create massive destruction OR it can pen a magnificent love sonnet and be remembered for centuries. Either way it is used, it still has no power in the pen itself. It's the power BEHIND the pen. It's who possesses the pen and the power it gives the pen.

Just like the simple word YES, it's powerless until you give it the power it needs to create powerful memories of all the good in your life right now.

Try this on for a DAY. Start your day off listing ALL the good things in your life right now, after each statement say the word YES with power! Repeat your list a few times, as many as you choose but after each statement continue declaring the word YES with power.

Tell me how you feel after that exercise. You are now starting on the path to create personal power and life each day with amazing results.

Enjoy your day,

Jody

Motive or Motivation

Interesting words. As I move forward in my business I was thinking about motives. Since I love looking up the meaning of words, as usual, I looked up "motive". Websters has it as, Motive:a reason for doing something.

Some call it their "WHY." Why are you doing what you're doing, what purpose is pushing you?
What motives do you have to continue spending your time doing what you do?

Now here's "motivation." Websters has it as, Motivation: the act or process of giving someone a reason for doing something : the act or process of motivating someone.

Motive is on a more personal level. Motivation is what one does for others 'giving' them a reason. I'm all about taking full responsibility, and the word motivation alone screams you are giving someone else the responsibility to come up with your motive, your why.

When I look up words and their meaning I learn more than anyone else. It's been part of my journey to understand why I do what I do. It keeps me moving and when the fears become too great....no matter how difficult the journey I can keep moving forward.

Here's my suggestion. Go buy the book "Aspire: Discovering Your Purpose Through the Power of Words" by Kevin Hall and choose which word describes you.

My word, "Sapere Vedere" and "PATHFINDER" --- combine it as "Sapere Vedere Pathfinder"

Ahhh Mom! do I have to?

Holding nothing back! I'm writing these blog posts because they are an assignment from my coach. Yes, I'll admit these thoughts just don't come out of my head, I have to think about what to write.

Then I go into wondering who cares, right? My negative thoughts continue just like every one else. When my son suggested I write a book, my first thought was "who am I to write a book?" I did it anyway. If you want to read it go to my website www.moneymama.biz and request your FREE copy.

I can go through example after example of how my negative thoughts work hard to stop me from progressing. It's crazy but I have learned to hear the negative stuff but I dismiss it and move forward.

At first it took me a while to recognize my negative thoughts. I had become so accostomed to listening; how sad that the negativity was so familiar to me. I was robotic in a way and simply kept living my life listening to it. I lived life out of fear, which is usually where those negative thoughts stem from.

I decided to live life smarter not harder! I turned those negative thoughts into a tool of understanding what holds me back. I learned how to tap into my spiritual side and listen attentively to that voice. I had to practice that as well. Procrastination comes from listening to your negative voice, believing it and obeying it. To rid yourself from procrastination, negative talk and learn how to live smarter not harder. Begin by developing and strengthening your personal integrity.

You see, once your negative talk believes you no longer are listening it starts speaking in a softer voice.

Here's what I found that worked. Decide one thing you want to work on each day. Example: get up at 6:00am every day. Now do just that!
Practice doing what you say you are going to do. Once you do this for a week it gets easier. You will learn how to start dismissing that negative talk that keeps you stuck. Once you can believe you will listen, others will to.

Let me know how it works for you. Message me and tell me about your week.

It's a great life, create yourself a fabulous day,

Jody
