Rarely – if at all – does anyone WANT to change. The results of the change are what actually motivate us. Keep your focus on those.

Motivational Monday Memo: Slow Down and Listen
Our minds listen “faster” than people can speak. Therefore, especially when we’re busy, we sometimes don’t take the time so slow down and really listen to what others are telling us. We respond to what we think they’re saying, not necessarily what they are really saying.
Monday Motivational Memo: Setting Realistic Goals & Resolutions
The problems with New Year’s resolutions are that most people aren’t really committed to them but feel they “should” make them because everyone else is; or they are committed to them but they make them too large and unwieldy.
Monday Motivational Memo – Daring to Believe You CAN
If you enter into your goal believing you can – and it doesn’t happen – at least you got to enjoy the ride for awhile. And during that time, you were invigorated, happy, and energized. Those emotions make you more aware, which make you open to new ideas, which allow you to try what you might not have tried if you thought all would come apart.
Monday Motivational Memo: Being Grateful to Disarm Anger
When stressed, take a deep breath; and remind yourself how lucky you are, it’ll change your mood.
Staying Focused: Keeping the Main Thing the Main Thing
If you’re feeling like your treading water, the problem is most likely that you’re trying to do too much; rather than not enough. Slow yourself down. Ask yourself, “What ONE thing will I do RIGHT NOW that I will complete?” Then, complete it BEFORE you move on to anything else.
Monday Motivational Memo: Noticing Perfect Moments
Take time to notice “perfect” moments in life. How often we do let them slip by unnoticed? When was the last time you lingered over a brilliant sunset, or stopped to watch children play, or smelled the air after a first rain, or put your day on hold long enough to make a baby giggle? [...]
Monday Motivational Memo: Change Your Observations to Change Your Life
If you change what you look for (observations), you will change your beliefs. If you change your beliefs, you will change your attitude. If you change your attitude, you will change how you react to the world (and therefore how it reacts to you).
Monday Motivational Memo: Overcoming Disappointment & Setbacks
People who do not achieve their goals “freak out” when things don’t go the way they want. They look at it as failure and the end of the road. The immediately follow up thought to that is, “As long as it didn’t work, why bother to keep trying?” They quit. Successful people look at sebacks as “feedback” and figure out a new way around it.
Monday Motivational Memo – Admitting Mistakes
We are judged not by our absence of flaws – but by the positive traits we possess. Most (not all) of the people we know are relatively forgiving – if we give them a chance. They see our flaws and love us anyway – unless we try to deny what we don’t do well. Admit [...]
Monday Motivational Memo: Overcoming Perfectionism
The biggest problem we face is NOT that we cannot do it, but that we make the goal unrealistic.
Remember “Think 1st.”
Pick 1 thing (not several), make it Small enough that there’s no objection in your mind to doing it, make sure you do it Today.
Monday Motivational Memo: Getting More Done
Since we each get 24 hours why are some people more productive than others? It’s how they use their time and how they establish their goals.
