Wisdom On The Web
The thought provoking questions in the Get Real app, can be used as great ice-breakers, conversation starters, dating questions, are amazing for team building and for teachers. I am certain that we have all experienced how one thought provoking question really can change everything, in a flash.
Life Power Tip
Every day, write at least five things for which you are grateful that day. Each entry in the gratitude journal begins with “Today I am grateful for…” A gratitude journal teaches your subconscious to consistently look for things to be thankful for – even on bad days. In fact, especially on the not so great days! It is important to write the journal by hand and not typing onto a computer screen.
Action
Hug a huge teddy bear.
Challenge
Explore the possibility of creating a business from home.
Quote
Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. -Lao Tzu
Clearing
Consider moving chairs, racks, or baskets that welcome clutter.
Question
If you could pass on to others one thing you have learned in life, what would it be?
Affirmation
I choose to always expand my possibility thinking.
Uplifting Extra
One of the things Professor Timothy Carey learned is that people’s turmoil is often based on events from the past of which they have not let go. If you think of all the troubles and mishaps a person experiences throughout life, clearly we’re able to let go of almost all of them. Many, many things, both good and bad, are woven into the tapestry of our lives without constantly screaming out for attention. Some things, though, are not put to bed so easily. Tim became so curious about this aspect of our meandering through life that he decided to find out more about it.

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.

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,
