BEAM THAT GRIN!!!

“The more audacious we are in articulating our lighthearted demeanor, the better received our efforts at spreading good cheer will be. Few individuals can resist smiling when they are on the receiving end of  a beaming grin. When we let our light shine, the world becomes, if only for a few moments, a better place, and the happiness that began within us spreads from person to person until everyone around us is pleased to be alive.”

This is just plain awesome! Thank you for sharing today, Jessica!

Twice

This weekend we had a wonderful family trip to Steamboat Springs. We love it there and try to go at least once a year.

I received the top image in an email and the bottom one I saw while walking through the town to dinner.

Both similar and both amazing.

Our legacy is truly written on the hearts and souls of others, not in any bank account, record book or etc.

And while living here on Earth, before we pass on, heaven is at our fingertips, and the way we experience it is to show compassion and love to others.

In doing so, we experience warmth, love and heaven inside.

(Maybe Belinda Carlisle was on to something with her 80’s hit: Heaven is a place on earth 😎)

Have a momentous Monday!

Gratitude = POWER

IMG_0094.PNG

This popped up as a “memory” in Facebook this morning.

This is a great quote and so true.

When we start from a position of gratitude, we are powerful beings.

I am thankful for all I have, who I am, who I am surrounded by, and the beautiful world I live in.

Sometimes, I lose track of how amazing life is (when stress gets in the way for example).

When I do that, my energy is drained, I make poor decisions and I am not growing.

Getting back into a position of gratitude refuels my batteries and gives me strength to conquer any challenge, and indeed grow!

Power on!

YOUR WORTH

 

know-your-worth

“Your worth is not a product of your intelligence, your talent, your looks, or how much you have accomplished.

Human beings are very much like drops of water in an endless ocean. Our worth comes from our role as distinct individuals as well as our role as an integral part of something larger than ourselves. Simple awakening to this concept can help you rediscover the copious and awe-inspiring worth within each and ever one of us.”- Madison Taylor

Too often we define our value by such trivial things.

YOU ARE POWERFUL.

YOU ARE NECESSARY.

In the scheme of life, you play a vital role to those around you and we are all connected in ways that we cannot truly visualize.

So let me say: I am so glad you are here. I am so thankful that you are who you are. In some way I know my life benefits from your existence and when you let your light shine,  my life (along with countless others’) is all the more brighter. 🙂

Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Love + Skill =

I love this quote from BJ Palmer (another Chiropractor/writer :).

When we can combine love with a skill we have, in other words when you can LOVE WHAT YOU DO, it no longer becomes a “do” at all and is a masterpiece of enjoyment.

Even if you don’t love your current job/situation, you can find certain aspect that are enjoyable. Dig into those and have fun today!

Create a masterpiece!

Always Learning

Every experience provides us with an opportunity to learn.

Happy, sad, traumatic, exhilarating… they all allow us to gain knowledge, on what to do if/when we are presented with a similar situation in the future.

Take some time to understand and revel in each experience, knowing no matter what, we will emerge better and more wise 🙂

Happy Wednesday!

-Dr. Lindeman

“When a team has camaraderie and clarity, progress is inevitable.”

SO VERY true!

A couple of keys here…

Who is on your “team”?

Your life is full of different groups of people. Your family, your friends, your co-workers, and your mentors.

Make sure you are surrounding yourself with people who can lift you up, push you to excel and share a common vision.

When you can gather these teams, enjoy each other, work to improve together, support one another with clarity, there is no way to go but up.

When you have the right support environment, you will be propelled toward your dreams.

Surround yourself with the good peeps, my friends :)!

Have a wonderful Tuesday!

Intrinsic Motivation

“You can motivate by fear, and you can motivate by reward. But both those methods are only temporary. The only lasting thing is self motivation.”-Homer Rice

 

Intrinsic-and-extrinsic-motivation

I’m sure you have big dreams, big goals that you want to accomplish.

Undoubtedly, we can become motivated by achieving things and crossing “finish lines.”

The key to sustained improvement, to getting up each time after falling/being knocked down isn’t these finish lines, however.

The key is the WHY.

The key lies in our internal motivation, our reasons for accomplishing these or any goal whatsoever.

Connect to that drive and we become unstoppable!

Happy connecting!

-Dr. Lindeman

 

Your “obstacles” create paths for others

IMG_9415.jpg

When you are going through a tough time, remember 2 things:

  1. You are never given anything you cannot handle in life, and when you climb the obstacle, others will learn from your amazing example.
  2. More than likely, someone has been in similar shoes before, and they got through the hardship as well.

Keep climbing my friends!
