Role Models and HAPPY NEW YEAR
When we were young we all had people that we looked up too and tried to emulate. Whether it be a superhero,rock star,model, movie star ,athlete…you get my drift. For people that have a burning desire to succeed in life in any chosen calling I suggest that you pick a role model to pattern yourself after. The best in any field have always had hero warship, it goes back all through the ages of society, that the best emulate the best. I read some very interesting literature in one of Napoleon Hills books that pertains to this subject. At night before going to sleep he would close his eyes in bed and hold an imaginary council meeting. This meeting would consist of people who he regarding as great people whom he desired their talents in the fields that they excelled in.
He states that after repetition of these imaginary meetings, that they became very real. So real that he had to stop for a time because he was losing a sense of reality. He would have Edison on one side of him asking advice on imagination , Emerson would be in the room and asked for advice on connecting to the natural laws of nature. He revered Carnegie,Ford and Lincoln for their great leadership and mastermind principals. I’ve tried this exercise and It’s amazing with some focussed concentration and imagination how much it works. I chose Naploeon Hill himself, Will Smith,Sidney Crosby, Mario Lemieux just to name a few. All people I look up too for their integrity and desire to be great! What ends up happening is even during the day I will hear these peoples voices driving me. Funny enough Napoleon Hill ended up meeting all his people that he held imaginary meetings with other than the ones that were deceased obviously.
Associating yourself with successful people is a must if you intend on becoming a success. We become who we associate ourselves with and take on traits of our environment no matter what. So it depends on how you measure success on how far you want to take it. For myself I desire inner happiness,love,healthy mind and body and financial freedom to travel and connect to amazing people around the world. This whole life we are living is an experience of of lifetime literally, and it’s our choice to dictate the state of our mind and direct it to what it is we truly desire! We’ve been given all the tools by nature to create a masterpiece of our own life or except mediocrity and be realistic. The adventure of life all starts with a leap of faith and having some fun with what we were blessed with. Work with what you do have and focus on the CAN do portion of what you want in life.
There’s all kinds of awesome videos on Youtube of great inspirational people that we can learn from and pick up dominant traits that will effect our vibration with enough practiced attention to it. This is the last blog of 2011 folks, and I just want to thank everyone that has made my life better. I write these blogs out of my sincere desire to be helpful. Lets all co create together in 2012 and make it the best year yet. We can all make a difference.
HAPPY NEW YEAR – MUCH LOVE -RYAN
Bring out the best in your relationship!
I’m really blessed, my parents have been married for over 40 years. My Dad was only 22 and my mom 20 when they got married. Well times have changed a lot since the baby boomer generation and it’ very apparent. Divorce rates are higher than ever and it’s sad to see and hear that a lot of marriages and relationships aren’t working like they used too. Over the past year especially I’ve been really aware of the ones that do work and why! First there’s a lot that goes into the whole attraction process in the first place. There’s the obvious physical connection which is purely biological. Then there’s patience for one another that needs to really be taken into consideration, it’s a must. You have to want to spend “quality” time with your partner.
LOVE is also a big word that is probably the most over used word in the dictionary that isn’t used with intension and feeling! If you expect your relationship to work out and be long and fulfilling there needs to be unconditional LOVE and understanding. I see the people that are the most happy and fulfilled with their mate and not only are they lovers but best friend as well. They bring out the very best in one another and support each other in all aspects of life. This is an important thing to consider before getting hitched in the first place. If you don’t bring out the very best in each other what’s the point? You can save a long process of upsetting time in your life if you just choose the right soulmate and don’t just settle. So many people get married for the wrong reasons, then it’s not only them that suffers but kids in a lot of cases as well.
Everyone in life deserves to be happy! It’s unfortunate that along the way in the relationships that it’s always negative emotions that push one of the people involved away. Be it jealousy or just trying to change the person into someone he or she isn’t. I hear so many people say they feel like they are walking on eggs shells around their significant other, that’s not cool. People it’s my suggestion that you remember why you fell for that person in the first place everyday! Not every relationship is going to be exactly the way you want it, but it can get pretty darn close if the two of you are on the same level. It’s all about growth and communication, respect, loyalty and true LOVE! My hat goes off to all the great relationships that work, I salute you!
It’s my desire for everyone to be happy and fulfilled emotionally and physically, it’s all available to everyone if we don’t force it. Look around you at the ones that work and take some mental notes as to why. It’s all about choices. And the choices we make are going to effect us no matter what, so make the ones that make sense and feel right. Use your intuition you are blessed with….
BRING OUT THE BEST IN EACH OTHER. -Ryan
Believe in Yourself
Age is only a number
It’s funny how many times I hear both men and women these days talking about their age. People make almost every excuse imaginable as to why they can’t take on a certain activity or the “maybe if I was younger” line. Ageing is inevitable, there’s no escaping it. But we can either choose to embrace it, or go against the grain and resist it. If you think about it, we get wiser as we get older. Especially if we are using the creative faculties of our brain towards what it is we desire in life. Our mind is just like any muscle in the body, without use it will wither away and be useless.
Keep on keeping on!
You know some days when you feel a little down? Those days that our energy just isn’t quite where we want it to be? Well if your human like me you answered yes. The good thing is, is there’s a couple things we can do to pick are moods up and feel a gradual relief from despair. It’s been proven that the brain reacts best when it’s stimulated with the positive emotions we “feed” it. Some of the major positive emotions are love,sex,faith,courage, desire, hope…I’m sure you can think of more but you get my point. I think it’s only natural to not want to get out of bed some days and face the world with responsibilities and issues that seem so important. I realize that a lot of responsibilities are important especially if your a parent where life can be very overwhelming at times due to stress and a willingness to be the best parent we know how.
Give a smile, get a smile..
It’s amazing what the power of a smile can do to uplift the human spirit. I know in some countries in the world it’s considered a sin to smile at other people when you pass them on the street. Unfortunately that’s life in some places in the world, but hopefully it will change one day. I know when someone smiles at me it makes me feel great, especially if I’m having one of those days where I’m inside my head and not totally present. It actually takes less to smile then it does to frown. I know sometimes we leave our homes in the morning to work with a lot of stress built up from our busy lives, we walk into the office and can’t wait for the day to be over. But for one week try and give a smile to everyone that you make eye contact with. Not just a smile from the mouth, but smile from the eyes and really give it with feeling.
New Years Resolutions!
With the holiday season coming to an end and all the great parties fizzling out except for the Big New Years bash, many of us have goals in mind for the new year. It’s funny because at the end of every year I always get into conversations with people on how to more effectively reach their goals in life. Lets face it, life is busy these days and it’s tough taking the time for ourselves which we so rightly deserve to make positive changes in health and finances. If it’s better health you desire, it will be beneficial to make a goal of getting some physical exercise at least three times a week. This doesn’t mean you need to get a gym pass and push the limits like a lot of extreme peopleI know, me being one of them. But going for walks around the your neighbourhood is a start, and remember a healthy diet is eighty percent of the battle towards a healthy vibrant body. and lets face it, when we see a more fit you in the mirror we feel more secure and confident.
