AYD - July 30, 2014 - Get Involved

"Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn."
- Benjamin Franklin

It works with children.  We are purposeful when we are guiding them and we rely on this truth.
It works on us.  We know this as surely we can remember complaining that someone should have done this for us instead of giving us orders, or not recognizing our accomplishments while they point out a fault.
It works on others.  If we remember to use the lessons we have learned from our own growth, and share it forward for their benefit too.

Get involved... so you can learn more.
Involve someone so the learning is compounded.

Good morning, greater day.
Greater you, is inviting others to follow your lead.

AYD - July 29, 2014 - Little Things

“One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: ‘To rise above little things’.” 
- John Burroughs

It is a good plan.  Not always easy or simple to do ... but a good plan.

Tuesday challenge to enhance the day - Stick to the Plan.

Good morning, Greater day.
Greater You, rises above little things.

AYD - July 28, 2014 - The Ability You Own

"We must learn to apply all that we know so that we can attract all that we want."
- Jim Rohn

So very often we hear a comment like this, and we connect it to a physical element.  An object we want or desire.  We summarize that if we work harder, we will achieve that material item.  While this may be true, it is not where the lesson needs to stop.

Attracting the things or outcomes in our lives includes all the day to day moments, and in fact I dare say it somewhat depends on them.  We need to develope the patterns on the little and often overlooked opportunities, in order to make our actions automatic when hunting big game like goals or measured progress.

Today, we want a successful week.  We want a great launch from the starting line.  We have been here before.  We have learned how to be prepared for this morning or this trip or this meeting ( and so on ...and so on...).   Take a moment, and see if we have prepped well enough.  Have we applied what we have learned so that today has energy stored and focus on the road ahead.

Just speaking about it seems to charge the battery, even if I have not identified my itinerary.

We have the ability to recognize all the tools in our box ... let's use them and pick up draw our desires into play.

Good morning, greater day.
Greater you, is simply a wonderful example to follow.
