Trust the wait

“Trust the wait. Embrace the uncertainty. Enjoy the beauty of becoming. When nothing is certain, anything is possible.” -Mandy Hale

becoming

Thank you for today’s inspiration, Jessica.

It is sooooo very true!

We are anxious creatures, we humans.

We set goals and we want to hit them ASAP (and we substitute the “P” (Possible) for N as in “As Soon As Now”)!

The process IS the goal.

Winning a medal in the Olympics is probably amazing, but the process is what brings those amazing athletes to the podium.

Landing the ideal job is a goal, but becoming the ideal candidate for the ideal job is the true victory.

BECOMING is beautiful.

Enjoy the change.

Love the fact that you can become who you want to become 😉

Have an amazing “transitional Tuesday!”

-Dr. Joel Lindeman

Jessica shared 2 great inspirational statements with us this morning.

“You always get tested before you progress to the next level.”

and

“Progress lies not in enhancing what is, but in advancing toward what will be.”-Kahlil Gibran.

 

Summation: It is where you are going that matters, and any strife you are experiencing now is merely a hurdle you must cross to keep on your path. We grow more from our obstacles than we do from our victories.

So today, Love the grind, and keep jumping those hurdles:)

Learn, Commit, Do (repeated)

“Moving along the upward spiral requires us to learn, commit and do on increasingly higher planes. We deceive ourselves if we think that any one of these is sufficient. To keep progressing, we must learn, commit and do–learn, commit and do—and learn, commit and do again.”-Stephen R Covey

 

learn commit do

In other words: complacency kills progress. 🙂

Love the process and keep learning, committing and doing!

Happy Thursday,

Dr. Lindeman

Stumbling or Stepping

I love this quote.

It made me think of this: Own your past, but forge your future!

You can always stumble, but  even when you do, you fall FORWARD. Embrace your “mistakes” because they are always opportunities for a better future.

Have a wonderful day!-Joel Lindeman DC

Little “habits” forge your character

I love this from Brendon Burchard’s book “The Motivation Manifesto.” It is such a powerful reminder that we tend to make large intentions for big fixes. However, it is the little things we repeat, day after day that truly create who we are.

Mountains today to bigger tomorrows

Thank you for sharing this Jessica!

“Choosing opportunities with an eye to the future strengthens our current motivation. Sometimes when we have an abundance of energy in the present moment it is easy to take on more tasks than we are able to do. Having passion for what we are doing keeps us stimulated at first, but we often wind up losing our momentum later on if we can’t see where our opportunities will take us. By making the effort to think about what you will take on and how that will impact your future, however, you will generate greater excitement for your projects. You will now know that what you start today will have a greater payoff tomorrow.”

In other words, look to the mountain for sure, but also realize that when you climb that peak, there will be amazing things to see/do/accomplish in the future as well!
