Ever get Excited...

And it seems to come out of nowhere??

Take it and run with it - without hesitation!

Many times we go cruising along, from day to day and week to week, just
going about our business and only getting excited occasionally, because
we are focused on what's in front of us and not what's around us.

Take it all in...what's around, us and the great opportunities which
lie in our future - let's get out of our heads for a bit...because when we take it all in...our excitement will build.

So when we are having one of those days that seem to come out of nowhere, it has probably come from our recent reflection on our grateful thoughts, and our positive outlook.

Met Erica OGrady yesterday, a wonderful person, we had lunch with the
marketing team here at Zappos and even did a radio piece for her radio
show.

Her deal is "Bliss".

We talked about how there is Happiness and Bliss all around us, yet
many of us seem to be focusing on everything else but Happiness and
Bliss.

Flying on a plane, and your internet service is interrupted...instead
of being thankful and grateful for the speedy and comfortable flight
getting you to where you want to go, fast, we get upset at the
interrupted service.

And we spoke of other scenarios with the same theme.

The bottom line is, that we all need to be more thankful and grateful
for all the wonderful things in our lives, and not focus and lament on
the "stuff".

Yours in "Choice" - Coach

A recipient is a...

Person that receives something.

And we are all recipients, every day, in every way.

We receive weather, conversation, traffic, work, unpleasant people,
pleasant people, information, phone calls etc - we are recipients on a
consistent basis.

Why is it that some of the stuff we receive, can take over our
emotions, and affect our actions?

It shouldn't have to...since upon receiving, we are getting more than
we had before - we should be thankful for all that we receive, as it is
a gift...maybe a gift that we don't particularly care for, but a gift
just the same.

So it may make the best sense to perceive everything that comes to us,
as a gift, some we keep and some we pass on...but being thankful and
grateful for all that comes to us - as it was more than we had before.

Yours in "Gifts" - Coach

Let's be Grateful...

For what we have, and for whatever comes our way.

There are many who are less fortunate than us, and some work much
harder...for much less.

We have a place to sleep, food to eat, clothes to wear and our choice
to take it from there...and for some, the rest is just a bonus, but it
really is a bonus to all of us.

Luxuries become necessities in short order, so we need to be grateful
for all that we have, and all that comes our way...for most likely, it's more than most.

Gratuitary Gland?

It's kind of like the Pituitary gland.

But instead of it's primary role of providing growth of your body, the
Gratuitary gland is in control of positive growth in your life.

It's function is stimulated by being grateful and showing gratitude for
all the blessing we have in our lives which promotes future growth...
the more we use it.

So continue to be grateful and show gratitude, and the positive process
will continue to work by itself.

Yours in Trust the Process - Coach
