Motivation

For your consideration…

I am going to be the first to say, “I need motivation.” I bet I have said this a dozen times to various people this last week alone.

Have you ever noticed that people have all kinds of ideas on how to get motivated. Get a glass that holds 16 ozs and then drink a whole one every couple of hours. Get a friend to commit walking together or going to the gym. Meditate, pray, read, write, first thing in the morning or last thing at night. Get a planner and write our goals for specific times. ETC. ETC. ETC.

You know what they say about addiction. You can’t help someone until they are ready to do the work themselves. It is the same with motivation. We have to be ready and we have to find what motivates us. Then we have to use that.

Our task today is to find what motivates us. Find what inspires us.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-Remember…You are the keeper of your light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness. Never underestimate the power of your light in helping others.

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Find what motivates us.

What made me smile yesterday…

-A beautiful day.

-A big resting day trying to get rid of this cold and laryangitis.

-A good book.

-Catching up with Jackie.

Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
