Connect Wisely!!

-
Your connections are your connections, to the world!!

The people that you surround yourself with really do connect you to the world.  People are either making you better or making you less than you are.  The people that you choose to be around are boosting your mood, or robbing your energy.  They are increasing your knowledge, or dropping your IQ by association.  They are causing you misery, or giving you bliss.  You choose.   

Choosing to be around positive people has been shown to boost your mood.  Simply sitting with, or conversing with positive people has the ability to elevate anyone out of the depths of most negative funks. A deep conversation with someone about positive topics can make you smarter.  Positive people just want to communicate in an educated and fun manner.  And Happiness?  Well, positive people look for and surround themselves with other happy people.  Just watch Shawn Achor describe how "happiness actually fuels success."

So grab the keys, pack a sweater, and head to a Starbucks and enjoy the wonders of positive people.  Notice that most people are just happy to be getting a coffee.  They endure long waits without getting upset. Why? It's hard to be upset while waiting for your favorite warm caffeinated beverage.

Get connected with positive people that connect you to the world, the positive world!!! Share your thoughts.

Be Kind

     Two simple words that can change the course of our relationships with others. Not just those close and personal relationships, but every interaction we have with random strangers too. All people deserve our kindness, not because it makes us better but because it might be just what they need to get through their day or even make them better.      One of the biggest concerns is that we are raising a culture that thinks of kindness as a weakness, when it couldn't be further from the truth. All great things begin with a positive intent . We should encourage a kind heart and love for others.      Our purpose should be to serve as role model for others, especially the younger generations that might not have the opportunity to experience kindness as frequently as they should. Whether young or old, everyone can be made different by an act of kindness. Sometimes it's a gift, a card, a helpful hand, a word, or even just smile that says you matter.        Let's remember tha

Make Kindness a Habit

-
Oh how easy it is to respond in anger, how easy it is to be rude. We want to be right at any cost, but are we really willing to pay that cost. Perhaps none of the above actually has a payoff, but instead leads us into isolation and loneliness. "Where did everyone go?" or "Where are all my friends?" Perhaps being right is not the answer.  We can choose to be kind, to speak from a place of kindness and communicate to be heard instead of being right. Kindness is a sign of strength, a place of control over ourselves. Kindness shows that we are a person of character, of virtue, of value. We respect all humankind. We don't concern ourselves with being right, but with coming from a place of kindness and respect.  So where are all my friends? Well, they are around me. They are in my life, because they are treated with kindness and respect. They are valued for making my life better and for being there in a pinch. Have some left, the answer is yes. They were no lo

Your 24/7 support team

-
We all have days that will challenge our flow, as well as days we will celebrate wins. But challenge or win, without a support team to share it with, it won't be the same experience. The world needs to know what you're experiencing, as sharing  that experience is what allows us to "feel" the experience.  A life coach serves as a sounding board and support during challenge or triumph. We are here to build up motivation to tackle goals as well as a place to reflect on current circumstances that need a push in a positive direction. Think of a life coach as your personal consultant for life change and goal accomplishments. So whether it's a challenge or a win, you need to share it in order to fully experience its lesson or reward. Consider your own personal life coach, we are here to serve.  Jorge Success-Initiatives.com
