Sharing The Blessings of Christmas

Christmas Day is only two sleeps away.   Are you willing to ask for what you want? Will you be sharing the blessings of the season?

In today’s video we have a very modern take on Christmas.  The “WestJet Christmas Miracle:  real time giving” is already a classic and is a reminder to adults of the wonder experienced by children when they articulate  what they truly want and receive it.  Commercial yet heartfelt too.

Overcoming Difficult Times in Life

Everybody goes through difficult times in their life.  Here’s today’s video which contains some powerful tips on overcoming difficult times in life, from Brendon Burchard.

Empowering Messages

Here’s a summary of five tips highlighted in today’s video for empowering yourself when facing difficult times :

  1. Have three goals for the day.  They don’t have to be complex, just three simple things you will take action on and achieve for the day.
  2. Remember that everything is temporary “and this too shall come to pass”.  Whatever your circumstances are today, they will continue to shift and change.
  3. Keep perspective by remembering better times.  Even though things might be difficult now, they haven’t always been (past) and they won’t always be (future.
  4. Ask yourself what you should be learning.  Reflect on the situation and write down three things you are learning from the situation.   Learning activates others parts of your brain, ones which enable you to cope and to find solutions
  5. Remember to have gratitude.  Looks around you and appreciates all the blessings you do have in your life.  Get yourself grateful by recognising the choices, people, resources and opportunities you do have in your life now.

Create a more inspired and empowered life by implementing some of today’s wisdom.

Quotes

“Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenges, wish for more wisdom. The major value in life is not what you get. The major value in life is what you become. Success is not to be pursued; it is to be attracted by the person you become.”
– Jim Rohn

What is Strategic Life Creation?
