Learn to Appreciate

 Gilbert K. Chesterton said "The aim of life is appreciation; there is no sense in not appreciating things; and there is no sense in having more of them if you have less appreciation of them."

One of the biggest reasons people get discouraged and end up giving up on their goals in life is because they focus on what they don't have instead of what they do have.

That's why it's so important to APPRECIATE TODAY.

Everything starts with an attitude of gratitude.

When you wake up in the morning consider that a blessing. Because millions of people everyday do not wake up.

Always remember that it doesn't matter what level you reach in life people are always going to hate on you and disrespect you at times.

You could have the biggest heart, the best body and guess what? People will still go out of their way to put you down.

People who hate on other people’s success still baffles me.

If you feel like expressing your opinion, make sure you have FACTS. Furthermore, don’t be afraid to give other people credit who have impacted you.

I've never been one to envy, envy is a characteristic of the WEAK.

You often times hear people say use haters as your motivation, but why on earth would you want to use people who are putting themselves down as motivation?

Some of the things that motivate me is inspiring others, seeing others get past limiting factors and putting themselves on the path to greatness and the thought of one day settling down and living a comfortable life since I don't come from much and haven't ever experienced that.

… not people whose insecurities out weight their confidence, there's absolutely nothing motivating about them. Those who have real Confidence have no room for jealousy.

When you know you have it, you have no need to hate because you’re too busy “winning” and bringing fourth your vision into reality.

I’ll see you at the top or from the top.

What do defeat, anxiety, self pity, desperation and surrender have in common?

They are habits!

And one of the biggest unbeknownst habits people carry with them through life is FEAR.

Carrying around this habit is the difference between living and average life versus life full of abundance, success and freedom.

I do have some good news though.

All of these negative limiting factors get be removed with one simple resolution: Believing in yourself!

Everything that you have ever wanted in life CAN be yours and everything you want IS out there. It is simply waiting for you to ask it to be yours.

Successful people ARE IN CONTROL of their money.

Successful people ARE IN CONTROL of their money and they don't lose who they are when when the money comes into their pockets.


Having this down to earth perspective keeps their heads on straight and keeps them in business.

So just how is this characteristic pulled off?

In one of two ways.

One, it's just in their personality.

Two, they were able to figure out how to live off practically nothing while starting their business and making their initial profit.

FEAR is why most people never go on to accomplish something great in their life.

FEAR is why most people never go on to accomplish something great in their life. So how you handle fear is going to determine your direction in life.
You can handle fear in 1 of 4 ways.
You can go over it...
You can go under it...
Or around it...
But if you are ever to put fear behind you then you must walk STRAIGHT THROUGH IT.
Once the fear is behind you, leave it there.
Get in the habit of walking straight through fear and start to use you fear as motivation.
Instead of thinking of the what you're actually fearful of, think about what will happen if you DON'T push your comfort zone. Usually the latter will be scarier than actually pushing through the barrier
