How Do You Inspire Yourself?
How do you inspire yourself in the midst of life's struggle?
How do you keep moving forward with all the negativity around you?
It is not your circumstances, it is your choices that matter.
“Life Happens, and Then You Choose!”
And, you can choose a Can Do Attitude.
Why wait for others to inspire you, when you can do it yourself with Positive Self-Talk.
That's right, you can live your Best Life Now… even if you don’t have it all together.
Even through tragedy, or illness.
I found the following quote by Klara on her website, “Her Happy Heart.” She lost her son, but still, through the heartache and life challenges, she stays positive, one step at a time.
She wants to help others and says…
“I believe PASSIONATELY in helping you discover and live your best life - right now! Not when you have more time. Not when you have more money. Not when you've achieved "that thing". NOW, baby.” - Klara Donovan
Even through illness, I discovered how to inspire myself, with God’s help, even through the toughest times.
My friend, Terry Tucker, who is dealing with cancer, wrote a book called, “Sustainable Excellence: Ten Principles to Leading Your Uncommon and Extraordinary Life” He says his book was born out of conversations.
In a podcast interview with Brad Hook, Terry was talking to a former player he had coached and she asked, “Coach, what do you think is my purpose?” Terry Said, “I have absolutely no idea what your purpose is, but that’s what your life should be about. Finding the reason you were put on this earth, using your unique gifts and talents, and living that way.”
Here is a link to the podcast and Terry’s book….

Terry was diagnosed with Melanoma Cancer and is a strong man of faith. We have those both in common. Trusting God through the process and understanding things will happen in God’s timing, is what’s important.
You will find that God will do the Extra, if you do the Ordinary.
You can live your best life now with trust and putting one foot in front of the other.
Joel Osteen says, “To live your best life now, you must learn to trust God’s timing, you may not think He’s working, but you can be sure that right now, behind the scenes, God is arranging all the pieces to come together to work out His plan for your life.”
I choose to believe that is true, and so can you.
Romans 8:28 says, “We know that all things work for good for those who love God,* who are called according to his purpose”
Life is so much bigger than us, but we have been given free choice, and with that, when you trust and believe, you can make the ordinary, extraordinary!
Remember to think about… what you think about.
Surround yourself with positive, action oriented people. Remember what Jim Rohn says… “You are the average of the five people closest to you.”
So the choices you make, create the life you ultimately live.
You can Live Your Best Life Now!
The Choice is yours… because
You get to “Live the Life You Choose!”
Blessings!
