Your Life Comes From What You Do Every Day

When you wake up in the morning, what do you do first? Do you check your phone? Or do you pray?

Whether you pray or check your phone, remember that you are in charge of your life. Your life is yours to control. Remember that how you live your days is exactly how you live your life.

If you want things to change, you have got to change how you live your days. You have got to shift how you see your world. You have got to change how you see the world around you.

You have to shift your attention to something that is really important to you. Look for things that make you come alive and do them. Look for other people who can help you get what you want.

But you have to be in charge of your learning. Because your success is going to come from what you are learning. Your future is going to come from what you are learning right now.

Do not focus on what is going to make you really sad. Anything that is going to make you unhappy, don’t do it. Because if you do something that you don’t want to deal with, you are not going to be happy with yourself. And your soul is not going to be happy with you.

Learn how to be with yourself, how to learn more about what is going on in your life. To do that, you must take care of your thoughts.

When you control your thoughts, your feelings will follow. So if you want to experience a better life, you have got to do better, think better, and work better.

Because you are more powerful when you are in charge of your day. And you achieve more when you are in charge of your time, when you use your time wisely.

Remember, getting busy is not the same thing as getting things done. If you want to get things done, you must find peace within you.

Because if you are always busy, if you are always doing, you will forget who you are, what you are doing, why you are doing what you are doing, and where you are going.

Do not let that be you. I hope not.

As always, when things get tough, remember, ‘You are more, not less!

The Only Way To Gauge How Well You Are Doing

What are you measuring in your life? Are you measuring things that are important to you?

Are you after what is going to change your life? Are you after your happiness, your joy, your own passion?

Are you okay with what is going on in your life? If you are not getting what you want to see in your life, what are you doing to get back to yourself, to feel more alive, to be comfortable with your life?

Or are you just doing what other people are doing? Or are you just trying to pretend that everything is okay in your life? Or are you just living your life to make other people happy? Or are you living for others, but not for yourself?

Or are you comparing yourself to others? What are you doing? Are you being true to yourself?

What are you doing right now? If you don’t know what to do next, according to Brianna Wiest, ‘… the only way to gauge how well you are or not doing is to have the courage to go inward, and to feel. To truly be honest with yourself, to keep going when you don’t feel finished, to let your roots sink deeper when you are in something you want to last. To realize that none of us will ever maintain seamless lives, but we are all capable of having one we are in some proud of. We are all capable of deciding what is worth our efforts, our energy, our fight.’

To know whether things are going well or not, look at what is going on in your life right now?

Do not pretend that everything is going well. If things are not, then seek help. You do that by asking some tough questions.

Ask yourself, ‘What am I doing right now? Is this what I should be doing right now? Is what I am doing getting me closer to my dreams? What should I change that is not helping me? What should I keep doing that is working? Who can help me?’ Do not be too smart to ask for help.

Be real with yourself. That is the only way to be you, to get to where you want to be. If not, you are not going to get what you want.

As always, remember, You are more, not less!
