Wisdom On The Web
Is it your time to get organized? If you’ve got something in your life that’s not working, get it working or get it out of there. Just one or two new habits, systems or ways to deal with things that regularly get in your way each day can help to engender a sense of control and raise our energy.
Life Power Tip
Have contingency plans in place. This is especially useful for when you make promises to yourself about completing particular things within set time frames. Know what you will do with those tasks if interruptions or unexpected delays thwart your intentions. Never skimp on promises made to yourself. These create your patterns of behavior (habits) in relationship to all your goals.
Action
Notice the colour purple everywhere you go today.
Challenge
Improve something in your life that will also improve your self-esteem.
Quote
It is only when we truly know and understand that we have a limited time on Earth and that we have no way of knowing when our time is up that we will begin to live each day to the fullest, as if it was the only one we had. -Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
Clearing
Go through and tidy your physical music and audio collection.
Question

Uplifting Extra
Distractions that can can fill the voids in our life are endless. To experience fewer of those distractions in our life, the first thing to work on is the question, “What end result do you want?” This question can be such a struggle for many people. Working on that question will crystallize your vision.

More inspired self improvement every day!
It’s difficult to be inspired if you’re stuck in a negative state. Inspiration is not just a flash of vision, it’s a motivation that births creativity.
People who get inspired are usually the ones more eager to jump into a project and stick with it. Inspired people have greater confidence not to doubt themselves.
Every day, seek out personal moments of clarity, increasing your awareness of new possibilities that surround you.

In the words of Oliver Wendell Holmes…
“One’s mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions”.
One favorite saying at my desk, is…
Whatever you focus on, WILL expand! Share on XThat’s one of many reasons that I love to share positive content. Forward Steps is for adding wings to our unique life journey!
Sometimes, you’ll find me recommending or presenting the same product(s) more than one time.
When repeating a training or using a tool that I’ve used or come across before, often I’ll “see” something brand new or have a fresh insight/perspective, that I might not have picked up on earlier. In that moment, perhaps I am finally “ready” to REALLY hear and receive its message or lesson.
It is not unlike seeing a movie for the second time and realizing that I’d not remembered seeing a particular scene, from the first viewing. As Nelson Mandela once said…
“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.”
When you see something that has already been presented to you once before, then I invite you to revisit it anyhow.
Give up any judgement about whether it is “good” or “bad”. It JUST IS and you are alive, so you’re in luck. You get to choose, again!
I love these words from Gelett Burgess…
“If in the last few years you haven’t discarded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse. You may be dead.”
Tens of thousands of people, from many countries & backgrounds, receive Forward Steps emails. Everyone is at different stages of their life journey, everyone is looking for different things and experiencing different things.
Some of us learn best by hearing, others are more visual and yet others love to gather information by reading. This makes for a phenomenal challenge, in satisfying everybody’s individual needs and preferences. Even should we assume “that nothing is impossible” – this challenge gives an awfully good impression of “impossible”!
We are all different. Seldom one solution fits all. I provide a vast array of resources (hundreds, in fact) to cater for a multi-dimensional audience and I always recommend you remember this quote…
Absorb what is useful, discard what is not and add what is uniquely your own. -Bruce Lee Share on XIn Lak’ech Ala K’in,
