The 2009 Indoor Track and Field World Championships  just finished. If you  witnessed Jamaica’s Usain Bolt completely destroy the 100m and 200m Men’s sprinting world records you were fortunate. Hopefully you noticed Just before the start of each race Bolt had a smile on his face and an ease in his manner. Everyone else in the field seemed to be loaded up with mental junk: all stressed out, uncertain… The commentators were suggesting that Bolt was the favorite to win the 100 and 200 but,  they did not expect him to break his own world records. But, it was that smile and ease on Bolt’s face that suggested something else. Something that Bolt understood and many do not get. And that is this…In life there are those who live in expectation to accomplish greatness in whatever they choose to do. They will astonish and amaze us…build hope for all of us to be better than we now are…and prove that greatness in humanity is held by only one ideal… The ideal that in life there are no limits yet known for mankind.  

Hey, we are all living in a gift called life.

While we’re here we may as well  expect to do great things.

Mediocrity is not what is intended for any of us.

BE GREAT!

“RIPP IT UP!”

Peace-

Matt

We all get lost in the scramble of life. But, it’s important to get back on track before things start to get ugly.

Here are 3 thoughts I always go back to when I start to veer off path  

1. Trust that GOD has incredible things in store for you.

It is in you that he has not gifted to ANYONE else. You have a gift…use it for good and share it for blessings. 

2. Clean out the junk-

What bogs you down? 

Negative thoughts?

Wrong relationships?

Poor food & drink choices?…

WE ALL know what’s holding us back from achieving what we REALLY want out of life. There are some things that we hold onto for much too long that we simply need to toss out.

Jettison the junk so you can finally get to YOUR destination.

3. Look at all of your choices as investments.

If you exercise regularly…good investment. 

If you come home from work and plop down with a beer and watch crap TV instead of spending quality time with your family…bad investment.

Nourishing your mind and body with a wholesome, nutritious meal is obviously a good investment.

We all know the choices we make today will reflect in the state of our wellbeing tomorrow.  

Good investments…Good results!  Poor Investments, oh well…  

Remember this…

Physiology does not lie.

Psychology does not lie.

Make the right choices MOST of the time and you will be on the right track to a greater, happier and results driven life.

Two Voices

 Always ‘hear to’ the voices in your head

There are only two

The voice that resounds with both truth and fight

Is the one you should most listen
