June 1

In every detail

Whatever you’re doing, put your passion, love, full attention and awareness into it. Give all you have to even the smallest of acts.

The richness of life is created in the living of it. Fulfillment comes not from getting, taking, having or keeping, but from being and becoming.

In every detail of your life there is the opportunity for greatness. The more of yourself you put into all you do, the more successful you will be.

Always remember that this moment, this day is not a practice or preparation. Now is when real life happens.

Give your energy, your attention, your thoughts and your love to what you are doing right now. Put yourself fully into what you do, and whatever you do will be of much value.

There is no task too small or too large to ignore. Make life rich by living every moment, by thinking every thought, and by performing every act with all the greatness that is in you.

— Ralph Marston

Admit that you are you

Nothing is going to solve all your problems for you. However, you are completely capable of addressing each and every one of those problems yourself.

The energy to do so will come from a compelling purpose. Somewhere within you is that purpose, and what you must do is forge a solid connection to it.

In the things that you love, the things you dislike, the things that excite you and the things that frustrate you, are hints of that purpose. The quickest connection to your driving purpose is to admit that you are you.

Admit that you are you, with your quirks, your passions, your doubts, your values, and all the other truths about you. Admit that you are you, and admit all that you treasure about life.

Don’t struggle to fit into someone else’s pre-defined mold. Chart your own course, be your own person, and harvest the real value in your own purpose.

In your own beautiful uniqueness you will find the inspiration and energy to move positively forward. Admit you are you, and manifest your own special greatness.

Live well today

Live well today, for you deserve it. Give time and energy to all you love, simply because you love it all.

You have put enormous effort into getting where you are. So enjoy where you are.

Find delight in the possibilities. Bring the very best ones to life.

Live well today, whatever you find yourself doing. With an attitude of sincere gratitude, any task, any situation will be a source of richness.

Live well today by being good and compassionate to yourself and to others. Enjoy the great sense of satisfaction that comes from being a positive presence.

This is the day you are now blessed with, so live it well. Remember how good life can be by putting that goodness into every moment.

Get better

Don’t just get by. Get better.

Don’t stop when you’ve merely done enough. Keep going and take full advantage of the powerful momentum you have created.

You have what it takes to exceed your highest expectations. So expect the very best, and then do even more.

When you’ve made a little progress, keep it up. When you’re on the right track, keep moving.

Instead of rushing to get the job finished, look for all the ways you can extend and expand your efforts. Feel the satisfaction of making a difference, and let it inspire you to make an even bigger difference.

Enjoy all that you can achieve. And then build on those achievements to enjoy even more.

— Ralph Marston

Ambition

Take on more than you can handle, then do what is necessary to handle it. Promise more than you can deliver, then find a way to deliver more than you have promised.

Playing it safe is dangerous to your future. Get the juices of your ambition flowing, and get some great stuff done.

Stop waiting around, hoping you’ll come across something that makes you more passionate about life. Start putting lots of effort, with plenty of determination and commitment, into what you’re doing, and you’ll be overflowing with passion and with success.

Stand up and look, with awe and amazement, at the opportunity that’s right in front of you. Then claim the opportunity and jump into it with everything you have.

Think up strategies instead of excuses, then implement those strategies with persistent action. Be willing to get it wrong for as long as it takes to get it right.

Do what you know you can do, and then do a whole lot more. There’s plenty of richness to be lived, so get going and make it happen.

Let life be good

Life is good, if you will let it be. Life is good, when you focus on its most positive aspects.

Let life be good by letting go of the need to satisfy your ego. Let life be good by letting go of the need to impress others with how impressive you are.

Let life be good, just because it is, just because you have the opportunity to live it. Let life be good by focusing more on the solid, enduring substance and less on the fleeting, superficial things.

Let life be good by seeing the best in others, those with whom you disagree as well as those with whom you agree. Let life be good by finding the positive aspects of every situation, and by acting to create a positive outcome.

Let life be good by allowing yourself to be curious, filled with a sense of wonder and awe. Let life be good by giving of yourself, experiencing how great it feels to make a difference.

Let this day, this moment, this life be good by living with gratitude for it all. Let life be good, and you make it even better for everyone.

Relax and get busy

It might seem like a contradiction to be active and involved while at the same time being relaxed and joyful. But there’s really no contradiction at all.

Activity and effort add great richness to life. And there’s no reason why you must be stressed and uptight about making that effort.

It’s idleness, not positive effort, that can bring so much despair to life. Avoid that despair by doing something valuable and meaningful every chance you get.

It’s great to be peaceful, relaxed, and enjoying life. And you can be all those things while putting forth disciplined, persistent, effective effort.

Don’t assume that you must wallow in idleness just to relax. Make the choice to relax and to enjoy yourself even in the busiest of times.

Life is an adventure, so live that adventure actively and enthusiastically. At the same time, relax and enjoy the process of adding real richness to your life and your world.

Use the power

You have the power to make your life better. Use it.

You have the power to transform difficult situations into valuable achievements. You have the power to successfully work through whatever challenges lie in front of you.

If you are stuck in an unsatisfying rut, you have the power to get unstuck. When circumstances change, you have the power to adapt and to prosper.

It doesn’t matter that you’ve abused or neglected your power in the past. What matters is that you can use your power now.

You have the power to choose your thoughts and to choose your actions. You have the power to focus your time, your energy and your life in a positive, rich and meaningful direction.

You have the power to fill your world with the best things you can imagine. Imagine those beautiful things, without limit, and use your power to make them so.

Now be thankful

Be thankful for the discomfort. It pushes you to move yourself forward.

Be thankful for the dissatisfaction. It reminds you, it compels you, to make more positive choices.

Be thankful for the frustration. It helps you discover more effective ways of taking action.

Whatever the world throws in your path, be thankful for the opportunity to experience it. Be thankful, and in a state of sincere gratitude discover the treasure that has just been laid at your feet.

There is never any good reason to feel sorry for yourself, and never any good result to come of it. Always is a way to be thankful, and always great value in doing so.

Now, be thankful. Touch the beauty, grasp the richness, live the wonder suddenly available in this moment to you.

Whatever you allow

The most miserable people are those who think only of themselves. Let go of self-centered concerns, and let the happiness that is your birthright flow forth.

The most desperate people are those who obsess over their needs. Step back, see that much of what you may think you need, you don’t, and free yourself to fulfill your highest values.

Whatever you chase, eludes you. Whatever you allow, gathers around you in great measure.

Allow your love to settle upon all those who surround you. Allow your generous nature to express itself in all you do, in what you say, and in the way you relate.

Allow your dreams, interests, passions, preferences and priorities to make themselves known, sincerely, honestly, lovingly. Allow and encourage the best in others, and discover how it brings out the best in you.

Allow this moment, this day, this life you share to be as beautiful as you know it can be. Allow true richness, and watch as it spreads throughout your world.

Empty pursuits

There are plenty of things you can do to keep busy, to keep yourself feeling like you are doing something. Yet what you’re really after is not just the feeling of doing something, but the experience of doing something that matters.

Busy work is enticing because it doesn’t ask much of you and doesn’t force you to make any real decisions. Yet the desire to be busy will not be fully satisfied by busy work.

What you have is a desire to do something significant, that makes a difference. It is a desire to express your purpose through your efforts.

If you’re spending a lot of time doing busy work that’s mostly empty, you have an opportunity. You can decide to let go of some of that busy work, and suddenly you have time to do some truly magnificent and meaningful things.

When it seems there’s no time for doing what will make a real difference in the world, the problem is not a lack of time. The problem is filling too much of that time with empty pursuits.

Instead of merely appearing busy, fill your moments with purposeful actions. And know how great it feels to be making meaningful progress.

Temporary situation

Failure is temporary. And so is success.

When you’ve failed, it’s good to keep in mind that you can go on to succeed. When you have had some success, it’s important not to become complacent.

The way things are today is not the way they will always be. Tomorrow will be different, and now you can have an impact on what that difference will be.

No matter how enjoyable or discouraging, exciting or troublesome this moment may be, it is a temporary situation. You will definitely move beyond it and the only question is, in what direction?

So focus your thoughts not on the pleasures or disappointments that have brought you here, but on how you will make good use of this moment. Envision a more positive and fulfilling world, and start taking steps to make it so.

Each day is a temporary situation, and yet you can use each day to move toward lasting richness. Grab the value of right now, and push it purposefully into your own bright future.

You decide

You can decide how you feel about the world. You can decide how you feel about each day.

You can decide what your attitude will be. In your ability to decide there is great power.

You can decide how much to let things get to you. You can decide what to do and what not to do.

You are not a victim of what happens to you. You are the result of the way you interpret and deal with what happens.

You are the result of your choices. You are not stuck in any particular pattern or situation, unless you choose to be.

You are free to make of this moment, and every moment, what you will. Decide right now to make it outstanding.

Immersed in the wonder

At this very moment you are immersed in the wonder that is life. Feel the power, feel the possibilities, and live this day worthy of the greatness to which you are connected.

In even the smallest, most ordinary things there is amazing beauty and immense potential for joy. If you are bored or uninspired, you’re simply not paying attention.

Take a moment to take a deep breath, to take it all in, and to marvel at your exceedingly good fortune. Remind yourself that you are rich beyond all conceivable measure.

If you happen to feel burdened by some particular situation or limitation, take a step back and reconsider. Whatever may be troubling you is small compared to the nearly limitless options you have for doing something about it.

Though there are many problems, there are always many more positive possibilities. To transform those possibilities into positive reality, it’s up to you to take purposeful, focused action.

In this moment, feel the immensity of life’s wonder. And find delight in making positive use of it.

Energy to move forward

Your burdens feel heavy because they are. They weigh you down and hold you back, but there is a better alternative.

You can choose to transform the weight of those burdens into positive energy. And you can draw upon that positive energy to move yourself forward.

The burdens you carry are creatures of the past that have survived to push against you in the present. Take a deep, fresh breath of the air that is right now, and fill yourself with resolve to take good, useful energy from those burdens.

Think of what you’ve done in the past to put yourself in the presence of your burdens. Now think of how you can use your energy and your actions to move yourself toward freedom.

You have worked your way to this point, and you can now work your way far beyond it. Imagine what is possible, choose from it whatever you desire, and begin right away to take the actions that will get you there.

Stop seeing your burdens as holding you back and start seeing them for what they can be. Take energy and inspiration from them, and choose to live life on your own positive, fulfilling terms.
