Video: One Perfect Day

June 26, 2011 by Scott "Q" Marcus Leave a Comment

Today was a perfect day.

The weather was wonderful (which rarely happens in Eureka, California). The yard looked great – after several hours of yard work yesterday. I wanted to remember it so I took a quick video on my iPhone 3G (which doesn’t really do video so it’s low quality). I am posting it as a reminder that we need to take time to appreciate those special moments while they’re here.

I hope you enjoy this moment in our backyard.

Video: What Makes for a Great Place to Live? And What Makes us Happy?

June 14, 2011 by Scott "Q" Marcus

Why do some places have happier people?

A fascinating report on what makes us happy – and where are the happiest places to live. This eight-minute video from CBS news is great to watch. (There is an ad embedded it by them but it’s worth the 30″ wait to get to the story.)

Motivational Video: Seal Regaining its Freedom

May 12, 2011 by Scott "Q" Marcus Leave a Comment

Stop me before I post more animal videos; I’m becoming obsessed!

However, if the purpose of this site is to inspire and motivate, then this hits it out of the park. It’s not only cute, it’s inspirational. Once the seal realizes he (or she) is free, notice the absolute glee he experiences as he races for freedom. (By the way, there’s no sound.)

What will you do today to feel like this seal today?

You can find out more at their site at www.sealrescue.org or facebook.com/sealrescue

8 Ways to Feel More Alive, Joyful and Grateful – No Matter What

May 6, 2011 by Featured Author

From “Have to” to “Get to”

“There are only two ways to go through life. One is believe nothing is a miracle. The other, is to see that everything is.” – Albert Einstein

Are you ready to be done getting sick, injured or having so much drama and victimization in your life?

Speaking as someone who had had a very difficult life that seemed rife with mishaps and crises one right after another for decades, until I figured a few things out and shifted what reality I am creating, allow me to share some recent insights and real, tangible practices that can help you break free and get into a life of more flow, health, wealth, love and happiness.

Three weeks ago, I sustained a pretty serious ankle injury involving sprain, extreme bruising and multiple torn ligaments. Here I was, essentially lying in bed for 10 days in a row, then hobbling along in a cast, not able to drive, take hikes or my daily walks, dance, going up and down the stairs on my tush with my foot stuck out… you get the idea.

Of course part of the emotional challenge with any injury or illness that limits our mobility or ability significantly, even if it temporary, is this sense of “Wow, my world has gotten really small.” And the fear of “How long is THIS going to last?” And the self-judgment “How and why did I manifest THIS?”

So, let’s take a look and go from whys to wise, turn the wounds into wisdom. I believe everything happens so we can learn from it, and when we get wise to our patterns and deep soul lessons, we can thereafter create something even better.

Out of trauma and emergency, we can “emerge and see.”

We can learn and grow, develop a deeper appreciation for the simple things in life, and emerge even more joyful and full of aliveness

I should probably give you a little context. [Read more…]
