Bucket Lists

People talk about bucket lists, it is my experience that being young some people don't think about the future goals in their life.  They tend to have the "I have lots of time to do that" thought process in life.  I am guilty of this myself even with the health challenges I face in my life.  But as I grow older and not being so old even now as I write this I have found myself looking back more on my past and contemplating where I would like to see my future go.

  Looking back is a good thing as long as you don't find yourself getting stuck there.  Be grateful for everything that has happened to you in your past, the good and the bad.  You wouldn't be who your are today if they didn't happen.  If you are unhappy with where you are today, well it is today and you can make a stand to make the rest of your life the best of your life.

Time to start contemplating, write a bucket list.  Look at your life as tomorrow may never come and if you were to die today would you have any regrets?  Is there anything you would think you would love to do.  Perhaps places you'd like to visit, a job you wish you had, a business you wish you started, perhaps an idea you'd like to see come to life.  Your goals are only limited by your imagination and the limits you put on yourself.  Dream big and go for those dreams like you are dreaming and have nothing to lose.  But do them while you are awake.  Follow life as a child who is learning  for the first time.  Try new foods, talk to new people, meet people you always wanted to meet.  Enjoy life like you won't get another.

Write those goals and start checking them off and when your time comes you will be full and happy and even leave a legacy behind.  Live your lives and only look back to keep in check where you are going forward.

We were born to be Phenomenal why live less?

Hey everyone I wanted to write about something that I have seen in myself as well as many others I have been around for years. Have you or anyone you known lived below their means? Making the decision to live safe and comfortable instead of reaching out, pushing your limits and testing your strengths and weaknesses? We were all born to be phenomenal, to live anything else is a waste really. But to live this life we need to stop doing certain things and start doing others. What are those things? Well for one, to live a phenomenal life you need to fill yourself and surround yourself with positive motivational energy. It's not an easy road you are going to set yourself on, which is why not many people choose it. You can and will lose some friends and family, you can and will make others. However in saying this I find the positive energy attracts, you will become a magnet, you will be looked upon to show others that it is possible. The more we put ourselves out there and grow the more we will show those we love and care about and even others we didn't know existed that they too can do it! They too can become what they desire most, that living below their true strengths is nothing but a waste of the energy, love, and anything else that makes you up. Become that leader the world needs! The world needs more positive influences, we are a world diseased with hatred and fear. What most don't understand is that hatred and fear isn't just outward coming in it is inward being projected out. I am going to challenge all of my readers to spend 1 week doing a few steps and see what happens in your life. The challenge will change you, it won't be easy for everyone some of you it will. Some of you are probably doing it already. What is this challenge? To wake up each day look in the mirror and tell yourself out loud "I am grateful that I am alive to make this change today to become something more. I am worth it! I am phenomenal! I love myself and I will accomplish my dreams and goals in life!" When you go to bed at night go over all of your accomplishments for that day, no matter how small they seem be grateful for them and celebrate them. The things that didn't go right that day, ask yourself what you learned from it and what you can do different to make it go right next time. Don't dwell on "failures" everyone has them, but the successful people don't see them as walls they see them as stepping stones to greatness. Success isn't a dream it's a mindset. Success is possible for everyone! I will see you all in 1 week and look forward to reading about your successes in life and changes you have seen in yourself and even those you love and care about.

Small steps Big Results

Tonight I was thinkin wow I haven't written on my blog in a very long time and have felt like I have been letting my readers down so tonight at 2am I am sitting here and writing something that I have learnt recently.

We have all had big dreams that have at times seemed impossible to obtain.  Perhaps we are still working on them, maybe worse case thinking they are impossible.  Well tonight what I write I hope will help you to move toward obtaining those dreams and realizing they maybe aren't so far away.

What I have learnt is it's great to have big goals that's what makes us grow and tests our boundaries.  Instead of looking just at the end goal and wondering how you're going to get there, break it down step by step.  If those steps still seem hard to do break it down further.  Keep breaking it down until you succeed in that first step then take the next and the next.

Review your goals each and everyday to push you through the hard days.  Never give up on yourself because you are worth it.  You deserve a better life and you can make it happen.  The biggest part of obtaining your goals is to take that first step.  Once you do that and take the next and next the momentum will build and soon you'll be succeeding and hitting your goals.

Let me know how this has helped you and leave a comment on those goals you are working to obtain.  Keeping yourself accountable and having others cheat you on can help reach those goals even faster!  Good luck my friends.

Put yourself out there

Hey everyone!  Haven't written anything in a while things have been pretty hectic with our planning a move etc.  I thought I would get on here and post about some thoughts I had today about putting yourself out there.  If you don't take the chance to put yourself out there how will you ever get to see what you can accomplish and how amazing you are?  You need to take chances in your life, without chances we wouldn't have had the experiences we have had today.  Good or bad, you get to learn from them and grow bigger and stronger everyday.  I put myself out there a little more today I have made myself a Facebook page on my journey kinda like this blog to help motivate people and show people that no matter what if you strive to better yourself no matter the obstacles you can always succeed times can get hard but that is when you make the biggest strides towards accomplishing your goals.  If you want to be part of my journey more then just this blo follow me on my Facebook page www.facebook.com/garrysjourney you are all a great blessing to me and I love writing my thoughts and sharing with you all.  I hope I can help you move past your fears and blocks in your lives and help your loved ones accomplish great things as well.  You are all amazing!

Accountability

Do you hold yourself accountable for what you do to reach your goals? I find if I don't hold myself accountable my progress on my goals is very slow if any progress at all. We can find excuses for just about anything but instead I finding excuses of why you should do something try finding excuses of why not to do it.

Write your goals down keep them where you can see them and even where others can see them as well. Share your goals with the world. Grow it out and and see what happens. Who knows maybe you'll find others who have the same goals as you do and you an team up and help each other reach the greatness you all deserve.

Review your goals often sometimes they change and if you don't accomplish them in the time you wanted don't look for excuses of what happened just review your actions learn from your mistakes and re adjust your plan of action and keep moving forward.

The great thing about life is you can make mistakes but you are in control of how you see those mistakes, you can see them negatively and get yourself down or you can see them as a positive move forward and hold yourself accountable for what happened and learn from it.
