Direct your Thoughts.

On what are you directing your time, energy and attention? Your life (the effect) is the response to your thoughts, words and actions (the cause). If one was to characterize your life as it is today, how would it be described in a single adjective? Many of us are unhappy with the answer.

The gift is the opportunity that lies in the self-reflection. If one has the courage to remove the harsh self-judgments and criticisms that are the tools of the ego, it leaves a blank canvas on which we are able to work great "magic."

Today, I invite you to revisit the question that is the anchor of all success. Who are you? Rather than focusing on what you do, consider the core of your being. What is the value that lies at the heart of your soul? How will you personify this quality in EVERYTHING that you do today? How will you evaluate your success in that regard?

Success or sabotage? There is a certain freedom and opportunity in knowing that everything that we do is either one or the other.

Is this going to be an incredible day? To what are you focusing your energy?
