Coach's Corner

“It never ceases to surprise me at the infinite capacity of the human mind to resist the introduction of useful knowledge.”
- Thomas Raynesford Lounsbury

Tomorrow Belongs to Today's Curious Mind

There is no get smarter or get better quick plan. What is it you are willing to give up to achieve what it is you desire? Every day attempt to better understand how the world works and your role in it. If you want to change your life you have to do something different. Knowing is not enough. You need to understand how to apply the knowledge. Make positive thinking a habit and search for new learning opportunities that push you beyond your comfort zone.

Nothing changes until you do. The road less traveled is not a crowded place. You can make significant changes in your life with minor changes in your thinking and behavior. Personal growth means shedding old approaches in exchange for new ones. Success should never be seen merely as a destination. It is a lifestyle that we need to maintain through our habits and attitudes toward life. Execution comes down to doing what you said you were going to do. 

None of us are a finished product. On your self-exploration journey never allow external things, places, people or circumstances to determine your worth. Realize your self-worth can never be validated by others. You were not born to live in a box. Denying yourself the chance to be who you really are is selfish. Share your brilliance and gifts everywhere you go fearlessly. 

When in doubt, embrace your uniqueness. Clarity diminishes resistance. You have your own unique path in life to live. Be uncommon. Celebrate your narrative and your journey. Your job is to live your life in a way that makes sense to you, not the outside world.

Tomorrow belongs to today's curious mind. Challenges are opportunities for growth. View all struggles as positive possibilities. You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. Do not be pushed by your problems. Be led by your dreams.  Make each day count and make a positive difference no matter what you are doing. When I meet someone, the first question I ask myself is what I can learn from this person? Every person you come in contact with has something to teach you. Empower others to find their voice as you continue to uncover yours.

In living comes obstacles of opportunity. Sorrow prepares us for joy. The next time you are faced with something that is unexpected, unwanted or uncertain, it just might be a gift. A precious present to explore the outer depths of who you are while having a conversation with yourself. How you think about a particular situation and how you feel about yourself matters more than what you might be experiencing and the opinions of others. Time is precious. Make every moment special!
