Share your light

Buddhism Quotes (11)

“By using your efficiency and skills to help others as well as yourself, you share your light with the world today.”-The Daily Om Scorpio Horoscope July 24, 2019.

Thank you for sharing this Ashley!

It is so true! By sharing your gifts with efficiency and compassion, you light up the world.

And the world NEEDS your light!

Shine Bright today!

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 ofย  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!

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 ๐Ÿ˜Ž)

Have a momentous Monday!

Gratitude = POWER

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!

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!

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

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!

Where you are now is an old dream

Thanks to Ashley for sharing this today.

Sometimes we forget how far we’ve come.

A wise man gave me some advice once: Take 10 minutes and write out all the positive experiences, things, feelings, etc that you have had in the past 10 years that you didn’t have 10 years prior.

It may take a bit to get going, but once you start to realize all the things you’ve been blessed with over the past 10 years, they start flowing like a waterfall.

Take some time to sit in gratitude and to realize that dreams do come trueย  ๐Ÿ™‚

Happy dreaming my friends!

-Dr. Lindeman

Melded minds

Today, Jessica shared with us this great quote:

“What you leave behind is not engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others.”-Pericles

I love this quote… and it was SUPER CRAZY that I actually sent the exact quote out to my inspirational text group this morning (she is not a part of that group).

Just goes to show we needed to hear and share that sentiment today!

Let’s all make our goals today to impact others in a loving, compassionate way. Let’s weave some magic into their lives ๐Ÿ™‚
