Enthusiasm is the one of the most powerful motivating forces for change. You can build your enthusiasm by thinking about achieving your long-range goals instead of the many complex steps along the way. Think about the people you can help with your product or service, and all the money you will earn for doing what you love to do. Such thoughts will generate enthusiastic feelings and cause you to ACT enthusiastic! Others will quickly respond to your enthusiasm, and soon it becomes a self-perpetuating cycle. Whatever you give out will always come back to you.

Hope in an illusion. The problem with hope is that we are dependent on someone or something outside of ourselves to change before our life will improve. And if that something or someone doesn’t bring us the hope we desire, we lose a little more hope. Each one of us has the power within to solve our own problems and reach our own goals without hoping that someone or something will “save” us. All we need to do is to listen to the voice within, known as our intuition, to find the answers we need.

Every challenge you willingly accept will bring about some quantity of knowledge and fulfillment. It’s a game you cannot lose! Knowing this, you are ready to accept the challenge. A happy and healthy life is one that is constantly challenged. Challenge offers us opportunities to risk openness and spontaneity, which are the opposites of rigid, inflexibly thinking. Rigid, inflexible thinking is the enemy of challenge and change.

"Being truly alive means living each moment of each day. In the course of living, you may notice that there are days when it seems very difficult to live life to the fullest. Sometimes these days even stretch into weeks or months. During these times, something inside you turns off. You may find yourself living to get through each moment as you become more discouraged with life. This is the time you need to remind yourself that each day counts! Each moment counts! Each day is a vital part of your entire life."

"Your mission in life is about YOU, about your willingness to serve others while serving yourself. This is the way that everyone would like to live. You are no exception. What are you waiting for? What are you trying to avoid? Sometimes people believe they must sacrifice their true calling because of family responsibilities. Or perhaps they feel that they have little, if anything, to contribute. It is a fact that your calling will, at times, require you to stand alone, without the support of family or friends. It will require you to search inside yourself, to make independent decisions on what is best for you. If there is a test to indicate a calling, it is undoubtedly the following question: Is this best for me? In other words, will it bring out the best in you, and will it satisfy your desire to create the thing you most want?"
