It is easy (and quite tempting, actually) to live your life as a critic, always on the sidelines with an astute observation about what is wrong in the world. It is much more challenging to put forth the energy and effort to create something new and more effective.  You can live your life as a leader or a follower.  Many have lost sight of the leader and have become followers of the followers. 

Think of your thoughts, words and actions as energy in motion. Where are you investing your energy?  Where are you shining your light in the world?  There is a perspective that only you can bring to the world, whether that world is limited to your family, friends, community, your place of employment or the world.  If your obituary (God-forbid) were to be written today, what would it say about you? For what do you wish to be remembered?

As you walk through this day, stay awake. Where are you shining your light? Where is there some darkness that might benefit from your light? Don't limit your awareness to thoughts; how can you translate those into actions TODAY?

Success or sabotage?  Do you invest in success for yourself and others by utilizing your power, energy and light or do you stay seated quietly in the darkness?

Is this going to be an incredible day?  How will you make it so?
