Motivated by kindness I can be a blessing in the lives of others.

Everybody can be Great !

Daily Quote:
  
   "Everybody can be great... because anybody can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love".                                       
                                                     Martin Luther King Jr.

Daily Thought:

   I can be great! I can be of service today. Today I am going to do everything in my power to be kind and compassionate to others. I will behave toward others in a way that a heart full of grace and love would. I will speak to others as though I am speaking to God. I will allow my authentic self to be present in each moment. I will encourage others to be their most authentic in all they do today.
   If we allow our most loving selves to operate within us today, we will be great! There is no greater service than being your authentic self to someone else. When we are being our authentic self we are acting with love, compassion, and grace toward others. In this we offer an invaluable service to others as well.

Daily Meditation:
  
   I choose to be great today! I choose to be of service. I choose to embrace my most authentic self, and be in a mindful state that is of service to others. As my most authentic self I act in love, and joy towards others. I except others being of service to me as well, in their own authentic way.

Daily Gratitude:

   Today as everyday, I am thankful for you. Today by reading and giving your focus, you have allowed me to be of service. Thank you for being someone else I can feel blessed in serving. Today we are great, simply because we have made the choice to be of service. Allow me the opportunity to encourage you to be your most authentic self. You bless the world by being of service, and being you. You are Great!

Tomorrow is now !

Daily Quote:

   "The future is literally in our hands to mold as we like. But we can not wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow is now"  Eleanor Rooservelt

Daily Positive Thought:

   Tomorrow is now! Right this very minute as you take the time to read this, to think about your day, feeding it that powerful thought, you are creating a better tommorow for yourslef today.
    Rudyard Kipling wrote "For the sin that ye do two by two ye must pay for one by one". I believe this is true, but I have expanded on the thought. I believe all (good or bad) things we do two by two we are repaid one and one. I have altered the Rudyard Kipling quote to align with what my authentic slef believes is a universal truth.
   So if tomorrow is molded by today, and we are repaid in equal measure for our thoughts and actions, make it all positive. I choose to collect only positive repayment. I will stay focused and guard my thoughts, and actions to keep them positive. When faced with negativity I will remember that if I choose to think, and act in like kind, I have earned a tomorrow that will reflect just that. I can honestly say for myslef this has proven its slef to be true daily.

Daily Meditation:

   My future is mine to mold, every great sculptor is dedicated to making a materpiece. I will be the greatest sculptor I can be. Every sculptor needs tools, and vision.  I will use all of the tools at my disposal skillfully, and keep my vision of tomorrow free of doubt, or fear. I will drill self love into the foundation of my heart. I will not measure my self by my short comings, but by the height and depth of my character. I will build others up with my words and actions. I will make my plans as if I have limitless resources and time. I will tirelessly create the masterpiece, that I want to see in the world, within me.

Daily Gratitude:

   I am grateful for you. My fellow sculptor today we create beautiful tomorrows. There is a materpiece in you, the Bible says, " For we are God's masterpiece." (Ephesians 2:10) Let's begin, tomorrow starts today!

Daily Quote:

   "It always seems impossible until its done" Nelson Mandela

Daily Positive Thought:

    Today's thought is on new beginnings, today I have stated this new journey for myself, and others. I started this blog because of all of the positive messages that have helped me every day over the years. I am grateful that they allowed me to take the journey with them, and I welcome others along with me. New beginnings are scary, like the first day of school, but like the first day of school, I hope to learn new things, make new friends, and have new achievements daily.

Daily Meditation:
 
  This is a new day, I will not allow the falseness of yesterday color my new day. This day will be my focus. I will imbue this day with brighter hues, and bolder lines. At the end of this day, I will be closer to the masterpiece I have always dreamed of becoming.

Daily Gratitude:
