Daily Good Moodivation #2 - Don't Waste Your Time!

Don't waste it! View every day as a blessing. Our lives are filled with opportunities and adventures to experience wonderful things, people, places, events, feelings, emotions, and thoughts. You can literally change yourself and change the world you live in through controlling your mind and thoughts.

Use your time wisely. Surround yourself with the people that you enjoy spending time with. As you grow older you begin to value this time much more deeply and have an appreciation for those you spend it with. Remember that you are an average of the five people you are around most often. Look around you - are those you've been associating with, people who bring you up and compliment your person? Or are you unhappy with your current state? If you are unsatisfied, you may be spending your time with the people who no longer align with your own personal and internal values.

It may be necessary to evaluate your surroundings on a somewhat regular basis. Draw back on Good Moodivation #1 - 'who do you want to be?' It is much easier to take steps consistently in the right direction and develop momentum along your ultimate path by being surrounded by like minded individuals.

Keep in mind that your body is the vessel by which you transport your soul. The body, mind, and spirit are all interconnected. Avoid viewing these things as separate entities. Once you can effectively feel the connection of all three and align yourself spiritually, mentally, and physically, you will catapult your worldly progress to new heights.

Again, view your body as the temple by which the mind and spirit are housed. How will you build your temple to be the most magnificent and effective carrier of your most valuable possessions? Through the correct use of nutrition. If you have heard the phrase "you are what you eat" - assume the literal translation. Your entire body is made up of cells which regenerate themselves loosely based on the material you consume. Nutrients are simply messages for each individual cell. What kind of message do you want to send to the building blocks of your 'self'?


Now I repeat - do not waste your time! Focus on surrounding yourself with positive people who lend complementary energy to you and who you do your best to give energy back. Create strong interpersonal bonds and synergistic relationships. Always see the positives in others and aim to bring out their strengths. Build the ultimate temple within yourself so that the external or physical sculpture is an accurate reflection of what is going on within. By sending the right messages to your cells in the form of high quality nutrients you are by definition building a high quality fortress, within which your mind and spirit can expand into for further growth and development.

What will you do today to spend your time more wisely? Start with a small win. Pack a healthy snack. Create a short daily goal list. Vow to spend less time on social media and instead read on something that interests you for 20 minutes. Meditate. Compliment a stranger. Reach out to an old friend. Scribble your thoughts down on a piece of paper and reflect. Or maybe decide that today is the day that you make big changes in your life. I hope it is. You have more potential than you could ever imagine, and that potential is bursting at the seams, ready to be released and make a massive splash onto this world with reverberating positive effects.

Have a great day folks.
