What you do nextDon’t define yourself by your past. Define yourself by your possibilities.
The version of you that now matters is the version of you going forward. See your life in those terms, from that perspective.
The only thing that can really hold you back is your reluctance to fulfill your best possibilities. Though progress is rarely easy, it is always possible.
You cannot just walk away from the obligations you’ve incurred in the past. However, you absolutely can choose to honor those obligations by going above and beyond them.
No matter what the past has been, today is an opportunity. You are alive, capable, motivated and in a position to make a positive difference in some way.
Look forward, see that opportunity, and dive into the fulfillment of it. What really matters now is what you do next, so make it something great. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140416.html#zHLQIGzkKIkr5s4s.99

Transform weakness into strengthWeakness is nothing to be ashamed of. It is something to be worked on.
It’s good to improve on your strengths. It’s even better, though, to make improvements in the areas that are your weaknesses.
When you improve on your strengths, you get good incremental gains. Yet when you can transform a weakness into a strength, you get major, life-changing gains.
Be willing to admit what you don’t know, what you are not experienced at doing, and what you don’t understand. Then get busy learning, developing your skills, and increasing your understanding.
Instead of using your weaknesses as excuses, use them as pathways for improvement. Instead of resigning yourself to whatever’s holding you back, challenge yourself to find a way around it.
Be honest and realistic with yourself about where you are coming up short. Then do the work, transform that weakness into strength, and move forward faster than ever before.

The richness of nowRight now is an exceptional moment. Be here with all you are, and experience its richness.
Feel the energy that is already available to you. See the value that is already in front of you, right now.
Let go of any thoughts of limitation or conflict. Let yourself see the unique beauty that is here and now.
Instead of obsessing over how things should be, tap into the great value of how things are. Instead of longing for the past or wishing for the future, live with joy, satisfaction and gratitude in the present.
Right now, let yourself be genuinely happy, and you will be. Right now, let yourself be more fully alive than ever.
Reach out and touch the exquisite world that is yours to experience right here, at this very moment. Feel the joy, feel the substance, and feel the love as you fully live the richness of now. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140418.html#Wkk4stxJF2mPgfPR.99

With every choiceEvery choice you make, makes a difference. Remember always to use that power wisely.
Every moment you live provides you with opportunity. Transform that opportunity into meaningful value in your own unique way.
You have immense power over the quality of your life and the shape of your world. That power is exercised in the choices you make.
When you live with positive purpose, a positive attitude and positive expectations, you’ll make positive, life-enriching choices. Those choices will reliably create a life of great fulfillment.
What you think, what you feel, what you say and what you do all matter very much. In every moment, with every choice, you move your life in a specific direction.
Make the commitment to always make that direction a good and meaningful one. Choose wisely, and live magnificently. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140419.html#pdBhtsS2WhYc8D1j.99

There is so much to valueGetting uptight won’t get anything done. Relax, enjoy the moment, and you’ll get more positive value out of it.
The work may be difficult, complicated and challenging, but that doesn’t mean you must fight against it. Be genuinely thankful for the opportunity to make a difference, and the difference you make will be a beautiful one.
Being resentful about what you must do will only make it more burdensome. You can choose instead to be enthusiastic, and you’ll immediately feel a great weight lifted off your shoulders.
There is so much to value, appreciate and enjoy about life. It really makes no sense to fight against it.
Take a deep, relaxing breath and remind yourself how good you have it. Choose to use your considerable energy to live your best possibilities.
Embrace your precious, unique and wonderful life. And live it with the peaceful, positive power that is always yours to choose. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140421.html#7YH9WGz427oLFehA.99

Peacefully engagedPeace is not arrived at by merely doing nothing. On the contrary, peace is attained by doing substantive and significant things, and doing them without conflict.
That means living with purpose, with love, compassion, forgiveness and genuine tolerance. It means putting your very best into the effort while at the same time detaching your sense of self worth from the result.
Your life, your work and your whole world are all filled with conflicting interests. Yet that doesn’t mean you must handle them by fighting.
In fact, diverse and conflicting interests can absolutely be resolved in much more positive ways, and it happens every day. That is one of life’s great challenges, and working through the challenge produces great value.
Seek not merely to do significant things. Seek to achieve what you achieve with a peaceful heart, for that is true and sustainable achievement.
Be fully engaged in life while also being completely at peace with who you are. It is indeed a powerful and fulfilling combination. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140422.html#Vcvggrwhk02BAomE.99

Positive alternativesThe more you focus on any possibility, the more power and substance you give to it. It is by giving your persistent attention and energy to the possibilities that you make them real.
The same dynamic works for both the desirable and the undesirable possibilities. Whether you strongly fear or strongly desire, the power of your unrelenting attention will work to create whatever you focus upon.
Choose, then, to make your focus a positive one. Instead of living in fear of the bad stuff, live with a persistent desire and appreciation for the good stuff.
Be sincerely thankful for the goodness you already have, and your gratitude will create even more. Imagine in detail how your world can be a better place, and your time and energy will go toward making it so.
Not only does fear itself bring you down, it also enables you to bring yourself down. Avoid all that not by avoiding your fears, but by turning your attention to their positive alternatives.
Your attention has great power. Remember always to focus that power in a desirable direction. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140423.html#ItOy84IJt2wxqEQ3.99

Sincerely loveLet go of the need to desire what the world says you should desire. Let yourself truly enjoy being who you are and living richly in the moment you’re in.
Worldly fame and fortune are mere artifacts of the things that really matter. Choose to love what you sincerely love, without the unnecessary pressure of having to impress anyone.
You don’t need permission, or certain specific circumstances, to be beautiful. You already are uniquely beautiful and worthy of a magnificent life.
Go ahead and live that life now, right where you are, with what you have, doing whatever you’re doing. Instead of placing arbitrary judgments on your situation, give your own profound love and meaning to it.
There is no limit to the joy you can create and the fulfillment you can experience on this very day. Everywhere you’ll discover beauty to be found and opportunities for living with true richness.
Stop fretting about what everyone else might do or say or think. Give your energy to all that you sincerely love, and live the great, wonderful fortune that is already within you. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140424.html#ir1CHI9GT4JITFY8.99

Harvest the richnessEven when it seems that life is not good to you, be good to life. Even when there is no reason to be positive, live with a positive outlook.
The best things in life do not come from reacting to what has already happened. The best things in life come from choosing to make new and positive and valuable things happen.
Decide not to be a slave to the way others live their lives. Instead of following the crowd, follow your own highest vision.
Choose not to be limited by your history or your circumstances. Choose instead to find the positive possibilities in this day, and to act on them.
There are all sorts of perfectly understandable reasons to be disappointed with life, but there is never any necessity to be. You can always choose to be positive, enthusiastic, empowered and effective.
Live each moment from a perspective of positive, loving purpose. Your life is, right now, your great opportunity, so harvest its outstanding richness in every moment.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140425.html#o3qSAwqTo18AyUR5.99

Let it all motivate youThe way to be highly motivated is not to go out and look for things to motivate you. The way to be highly motivated is to let everything motivate you.
Be motivated by the defeats as well as the victories. Be motivated by the challenges and difficulties just as much as you’re motivated by the positive possibilities.
When you hear encouraging news, be motivated. When someone gives you discouraging news, be just as motivated.
Your level of motivation does not depend on what happens. It depends on the way you choose to respond.
Choose to respond with a sense of positive and meaningful motivation. No matter what happens or fails to happen, let it motivate you to reach higher and to create new value.
You cannot know everything that will fill this day, yet you can choose right now what to do with it. Let it all motivate you to make the efforts that will make it all even better.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140426.html#QpGO4Y5CoKGgeIxJ.99

Essential to lifeYou are not too old or too tired or too broke or too disadvantaged. You are uniquely qualified to add substance to life.
Don’t get caught up in making judgments about what is fair or unfair or easy or difficult. Just get on with the satisfying and fulfilling business of making a real positive difference in the world.
You’ve done it many times before and you know you can do it many more times again. You know how great it makes you feel to know you truly matter.
So get busy, get some good stuff done, and feel that great feeling again and again. Forget about the silly excuses and focus on the significant difference you can make.
There are lots of great people in this world. Yet there is no one who can do a better job of being you than you.
Life is great, and you are essential to that greatness. Do your part, in your own special way, and feel how truly great it is.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140429.html#RA4eU2tzGTyfJOjK.99

Lighten up and live wellYou are an important, indispensable part of life on this day. Yet that is no reason to be arrogant.
You have a vital job to do. Yet that doesn’t mean you must be stuffy and overly serious.
You do things best when you do them joyfully. Lighten up, have fun, and spread true joy everywhere you go.
Be mature and responsible, but don’t be dull and brooding about it. Be purposeful and determined, but don’t be uptight about it.
Demonstrate your determination not with a rigid scowl on your face, but with joyous achievement. Life is an amazingly grand adventure, so allow yourself to experience and express delight in every moment.
See yourself as happily dancing through the moments of this day, and nothing will be able to bring you down. Live lightly, live joyously, and live well. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140430.html#8lxBD3ehcwaceeEJ.99

Live in harmonyDo what you wish to do, live the way you wish to live, and achieve what you choose to achieve. Yet do it all not in opposition to others, but in harmony with all that is happening.
You don’t have to fight to get your way. It is far more powerful and effective to achieve your aims through love, understanding, and giving.
Sure, there will always be discord in this world. Yet it does not ever have to come from you.
Put your energy into positive achievement, not into spite or anger or jealousy. Use your moments to pull yourself forward, not to push others back.
The best possible world you can live in is a world in which everyone prospers. Make it your business to support, encourage and enable such a world.
Go peacefully with life’s flow, and make use of it to fashion your own unique fulfillment. Live your dreams with true authenticity so that others may live theirs. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140501.html#wzwtrCg0K52UimDH.99

Honesty of beingInstead of striving to figure out what to do, just do. There is no need to program or plan out every last detail of your success when you are simply and elegantly living it.
Rather than putting a lot of effort into understanding yourself, be yourself. Instead of collecting mere tokens of your desires, spend your time living and fulfilling your actual desires.
Don’t frustrate yourself seeking some arbitrary ideal of perfection. Fulfill your best possibilities in each and every moment through the simple, direct honesty of being.
Rather than striving for a specific result, put your energy into what you truly love. With authentic love as your motivation, the results you get will be very much to your liking.
Stop trying and start being. Stop trying and just start doing.
You can do truly amazing things when you give up the burdensome need to be amazing. Be, do, and live the wonder.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140502.html#98bmuQUPuK1pJHwk.99

Rise to the challengesJust because the job is challenging doesn’t give you an excuse to be less than your best. In fact, what it gives you is the opportunity to rise to the challenge.
Great success is not achieved by just doing the easy stuff. Great success is the result of being willing to, and even enthusiastic about working through the challenges.
Each challenge you encounter can either be a reason to quit or a pathway to achievement. Through your attitude and your actions, you decide which it will be.
Difficult, complicated, challenging work is not a curse, but rather is a valuable blessing. It is your chance to learn, to grow, to become stronger and more capable, and to achieve.
In every challenge is a way for you to make a meaningful positive difference in the world. Welcome the challenges, and you welcome the potential for new richness into your life.
You are much more powerful and effective than you’ve ever experienced. The way to know that without a doubt, is to rise to the challenges. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140503.html#taRuLHG1drjgpj6q.99

Tomorrow can wait If your mind is always jumping ahead to what might be next, you miss the opportunity to fully live what is now. Be patient, be thankful, and let life come at its own pace.
Stop looking so much at the clock, and focus more on your purpose. Tomorrow can wait while you make today great.
If you hurry, concerned that you don’t have enough time, you’ll waste much of the time you do have. Take the necessary time and give sufficient attention to each task, so as to get maximum value from it.
Live each moment with deliberate, peaceful purpose, not with hurried, worried anxiety. In your eagerness to get ahead don’t leave the opportunity of this day behind.
Be ambitious while also being patient about it. Then you can truly enjoy the fruits of your ambition.
Take a deep, relaxing breath and feel the great value of the moment you’re already in. Fully live that value, here and now, and make it always yours. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140505.html#CARUdmgzWpBVryeh.99

Not alwaysThings will not always go the way you had hoped they would. Do your best anyway, give your best, live your best and be your best.
People will not always act the way you think they should. Give them your love, respect and understanding anyway, for it is the best choice going forward.
The past and the present are not always to your liking. Even so, especially so, the future is always yours to create.
The people and conditions around you will not always be supportive, but you don’t have to let them drag you down. You can choose to move forward, no matter what others may or may not choose.
Life might just give you a big, valuable break, but don’t count on it. Make it your business to give yourself an endless series of positive breaks, and anything else you get will be a bonus.
Though things may not always go your way, life can always be good and fulfilling. Because you can always choose, with your thoughts, your attitude and your actions, to make it that way.

In this very momentYou don’t have to be experiencing an epic adventure to enjoy profound fulfillment. There is much joy to be found in even the most ordinary days.
You don’t have to own an impressive collection of possessions to be rich. Life’s true richness comes from the way you feel, and feeling great requires nothing other than your choice.
There is no need to place conditions on your joy. Simply, and wonderfully, live it, now.
Your life is unique and precious, so treat it as such. Delight in the deep, rich substance of being, not just in the meaningless tokens.
Right here, right now, is everything necessary for great fulfillment. Always within you is the power to experience life at its very best.

Making wishes come trueIf every one of your wishes were instantly granted, you’d probably regret most of them. Fortunately, it takes more than wishing to make it so.
The wishes that come true are the wishes you really, truly want to come true. That’s because you must commit to them and work to bring them about.
Just imagine how disordered and superficial life would be if you were granted every little thing you wished for. Nothing would really have any value to you, because you would not have the opportunity to build that value with your time and effort.
The work you do to achieve what you desire is what makes that achievement meaningful. That work gives you the chance to put your own unique value into the achievement, and that’s what you truly desire.
So, by all means, wish for the very best for yourself, your community, your family and your world. Then get busy bringing those positive wishes to life.
Because you deserve much more than merely a wish that comes true. You deserve to be the person who makes it happen.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140508.html#ymJJXM8UZRCVhW6r.99

Assume you can do itA powerful first step in getting anything done is to assume you can do it. When you start by assuming you can do it, you don’t have to fight your doubts all the way there.
Even if you don’t know how to take the first step, assume that there’s a way. Assume you can do it, and you’ll find that way.
You are extremely good at solving difficult problems because you’ve done it all your life. You are very good at making things happen when you have a good enough reason to do so.
So make sure your objective is what you really, truly desire, and make the assumption that you can indeed reach it. With a meaningful purpose and a positive perspective, you’re already well on your way.
Instead of complaining that it’s too difficult or complicated or unfair, just get busy. Work under the powerful assumption that it’s possible for you, and it will be.
Dare to dream and dare to believe without a doubt that you can reach your dreams. Assume you can, and eventually, with effort and commitment, you will. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140509.html#imVpRQWs4dTsTFAs.99

Keep things in balanceYou cannot escape the necessity of balance in your life. Anything taken to an extreme will soon cease to have the desired positive effect.
If you relax all the time, relaxation will become nothing but a tedious burden. If you work all the time, with no break for fun and relaxation, your work loses much of its effectiveness.
Be ambitious, be diligent, and work with commitment, but don’t make that work the only thing you do. Have fun, enjoy life, and take it easy, but don’t make leisure your full-time pursuit.
Make it your goal to make sure there is balance in your life. If you don’t, eventually balance will be forced upon you in ways that won’t be to your liking.
It’s only natural to seek more and more of a good thing, yet that can be counterproductive, whatever the good thing may be. Instead, consider adding more good things, new and different good things, to balance your life.
Balance in your life can make every part of it richer and more satisfying. Keep things in balance, and make the very most of it all.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140510.html#HLRubPGvMQhp1PPh.99

Start doing itThe way out of doubt is to do. The way to get beyond discouragement is with action.
Thoughts have a powerful influence on the way you feel and the way you are. Yet deeds have an even more powerful influence.
When you’re doing something positive, effective and meaningful, it’s difficult to be negative. When you’re actively making a difference in life, there’s no energy left for discouragement or despair.
When you want to get your spirits up, get yourself up and get going. Your actions can change life for the better, and that will most certainly change you for the better.
Think of how truly amazing it is that you can make things happen. Then go beyond thinking, and start doing it.
Don’t just wish or dream or complain or worry. Step decisively away from the negative, limiting thoughts with positive, purposeful action.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140512.html#7fxVZ6mZtlMqEUFZ.99

Constantly changingLife constantly moves, so move with it. Life is constantly changing, so learn to find beauty and fulfillment in the changes.
If you try and hold on to the way things were, you will miss the new magnificence of the way things are becoming. If you deny and hide from the changes, the best possibilities will pass you by.
Embrace the dawn, then the midday, then the evening and then the night. Embrace the spring, then the summer, then the fall and then the winter.
You cannot hold on to a single moment. Yet you can choose to live each moment with grace and joy, with purpose and richness.
Today can be a significant improvement over yesterday if you will fully embrace it and let it be. Welcome life’s ever-changing nature, and you’ll find ways for each change to lift you higher.
As life moves, move forward with joy, authenticity and ceaseless wonder at the new opportunities in every moment. Though you cannot hold on to this day, what you can always keep is the love with which you live it. — Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140513.html#bOac2MVUIA4aKTZz.99

Your life is too unique and precious to spend it drifting aimlessly. Remind yourself of what’s important to you, and do something about it, now.

Stay on the pathIf you want your actions to have power, repeat them often. Your solidly-established habits have much more influence than your occasional whims.
There are limits to what you can do in a single instant. Yet when you focus your actions over many days, months or years, you can achieve truly amazing things.
It’s great to have useful skills, valuable resources, and powerful friends. Yet without persistence, even the best advantages won’t get you anywhere.
With persistent actions, however, you can start from where you are and get yourself to wherever you wish to be. When you put real, focused effort into your dreams, again and again, those dreams cannot help but become real.
Which path you choose is important. What’s just as important is choosing to stay on that path, every moment, every day, until the destination is reached.
Give your life the power of persistence. And delight in the immense satisfaction of steadily working your way to your own unique fulfillment.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140515.html#epSXZAdxV5PMvWMW.99

It is fantastic to have a desirable and ambitious destination. To reach that destination, you must start by fully accepting and appreciating where you now are.
Decide that now is beautiful and that this place is filled with opportunity. Decide, and it is so.
No amount of regret or resentment can change the past. Choose instead to simply be thankful that you are here now, able to move positively forward.
Stop the fighting against what is, and start working on the good and valuable things that can be. Gratefully accept and make use of the profound power that is yours here and now.
This moment has great value that is yours when you choose to live it. You are here, and it is now, so embrace that value and give it your own unique meaning.

Your own beautiful visionNo one is going to hand you a map that precisely directs you to the exact life you desire. Much of the joy of fulfillment comes from finding your own way there.
Others can be of great help to you. Yet you must take full responsibility for making the journey.
You have what it takes to fashion and lead a life of unique fulfillment. Look deep within yourself, honestly, sincerely, and you will see.
Don’t get trapped and frustrated by trying to live someone else’s dream. Have the courage and the commitment to let your life express who you truly are.
It is perfectly okay to love life in your own unique way. In fact, it is your responsibility to do so.
Let go of the worries, fears, false expectations and distractions. Allow yourself to see your own beautiful vision, and follow it joyfully forward.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140517.html#pb8AIOCAKELxgLiB.99

Enjoy this very momentYou don’t need ideal conditions in order to enjoy an ideal life. You can simply make the choice to do so.
You don’t have to wait until the perfect moment to be happy. Any moment and every moment will do, including this one.
Whatever you’re doing, add a smile and a positive attitude to it. Life’s beauty is everywhere, so make the empowering choice to see it everywhere.
You can choose to complain about your lot in life and to feel sorry for yourself, or you can choose to enjoy the wonder that’s all around you. Keep in mind that there’s valuable opportunity in everything, and a positive perspective enables you to tap into that opportunity.
There are plenty of problems to be fixed, wrongs to be made right, and obstacles to overcome. And the most effective way to move forward is with joy, not with bitterness.
Challenge yourself to enjoy this very moment, fully, completely, sincerely, authentically. And learn to put the power of joy in everything you do.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/140519.html#skj0XffyyuE2FXi4.99

Worth the investmentFocus not just on what is easy, convenient, comfortable, free of charge or free of risk. Focus on what is valuable and on what is possible.
To get something valuable and meaningful out of any task or experience you must put value and meaning into it. It’s worth a little inconvenience to bring more goodness into the world.
Don’t pass up the opportunity to add rich substance to life just because it is a challenge to do so. Face the challenges, make the efforts, and transform the best possibilities into reality.
You won’t learn very much if you spend all your time with people, places and thoughts that are already familiar. Go out beyond what is comfortable and familiar, and discover how very much there is to discover.
Life is amazing and absolutely worth the investment of your time and trouble, so make that investment. Life is a grand adventure, so live each day with your own sense of adventure.
Let go of the worn-out excuses and let in some real, rich, fulfilling life. Actually do what you’ll someday wish you would have done, and create a life with no regrets.
