Food For Thought for Saturday, June 25th, 2011

Living with purpose and passion is based upon decision. You may choose to live day after day, one after another, in a completely ordinary existence. OR you can choose to greet each day with a possibility mindset. A purposeful mindset. A Passionate mindset.

Begin each day with these questions and be amazed.

1.  Why is it important for me to engage myself in my work passionately and purposefully each day?  

2.  How will I choose to allow my attitude effect how I address stressful situations at work today? How can I be more affective and proactive in regards to stress and attitude?

3.  When am I most likely too react with the most passion and purpose today? Meeting with clients? Working on my computer? Following up on a lead? Take note of what makes your passion come alive, so you can use it to better your work performance.

4.  Where within the organization am I best able to express my passion and purpose? Is it working with my peers? My supervisors? Clients? Interdepartmentally? Where physically do I perform the most purposefully?

5.  With whom do I need to spend time in order to maintain balance as I pursue my passion and purpose? Within the organization, who best supports me?

6.  What choices will I make today that align my purpose and passion with the tasks at hand at work?

7.  Who am I called to be today as an expression of my passion for living?

Intuition and False Starts: A Blog Post

Intuition by Susan Piver
The secret of fortune is joy in our hands. – Ralph Waldo Emerson

If you could picture your intuition as a person, what would he or she look like? If you sat down together for dinner, what is the first thing he or she would tell you?

The room quiet but the noises in my soul loud.  A quiet dinner with candles flickering while the shy intuition flitters around my vision.  She has a pained look when she glances at me, her soul a cobweb of unheard pleas and warning.  We stare at each other, neither willing to say what is on our mind.  She, waiting for an inkling of acceptance from me, ready to overwhelm me with her thoughts and opinion, yet we sit across each other, as if in a staring contest while pride and ego have me as their steady customer.

The three things that keep me away from writing are laziness, lack of structure and really not knowing where to begin and so I have many false starts but no complete stories which leads me to wonder if I am capable of writing stories.  I have visions of stories and half started conversations but nothing complete, my stories as incomplete as my life it seems like.

A Ten Cent Idea

When young F. W. Woolworth was a store clerk, he tried to convince his boss to have a ten-cent sale to reduce inventory.

The boss agreed, and the idea was a resounding success. This inspired Woolworth to open his own store and price items at a nickel and a dime. He needed capital for such a venture, so he asked his boss to supply the capital for part interest in the store.

His boss turned him down flat. “The idea is too risky,” he told Woolworth. “There are not enough items to sell for five and ten cents.” Woolworth went ahead without his boss’s backing, and he not only was successful in his first store, but eventually he owned a chain of F. W. Woolworth stores across the nation. Later, his former boss was heard to remark, “As far as I can figure out, every word I used to turn Woolworth down cost me about a million dollars.”

Food for Thought for Wednesday, June 23, 2011

We are Divine enough to ask and we are important enough to receive.
 ~Wayne Dyer

 

Most of us spend our lives as if we have another one in the bank.
~Ben Irwin

 

For peace of mind, we need to resign as general manager of the universe.
 ~Larry Eisenberg

 
Positively powerful

Relax, and remember how truly beautiful and unique you are. Relax, and remember how positively powerful you can be.

Don’t waste your time wishing for something outside of you to magically make your life easier. Instead, make life easy on yourself by making full use of your magnificent capabilities.

The pain of what you worry about is mostly in the worry itself. The joy you seek to experience is yours as soon as you allow it to be.

Feel how truly good you know your life can be. Act on those feelings, right now, and the goodness comes to life.

Most of the difficulties are difficult only because you have decided they are. Gratefully embrace them, and you’ll touch their positive value.

Remind yourself how good life can be. From there, you can make it even better.

— Ralph Marston
