Lifting life upIf the bad stuff is getting to you too much, create more good stuff. Nothing can bring you down when you’re busy lifting life up.
Don’t fight the negativity, because that will just draw you in deeper. Instead, overwhelm negativity with positive substance.
Constantly complaining makes you more invested in whatever you are complaining about. Resist the temptation to complain, and find a positive response.
Let the negativity be, then let it go. Free yourself from its grip and with that freedom, move forward.
You don’t have to be naive to be positive. Though the negative things are still there, you can choose to focus all of your energy on creating new goodness.
No matter how difficult things are, there is always something good you can do. Lift up life, and put more of the power of positive living in your world.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150521.html#l1W0wftHsTJsI6Kv.99

Increase the abundanceIf you wish to make an impression on people, don’t tell them how good you are. Show them how good they are.
If you wish to increase your wealth, don’t focus on the question of how to make money. Put your time and energy into creating and delivering unique value.
If you wish to learn more about something, teach it to someone else. If you wish to be loved, appreciated and respected, then offer your love, appreciation and respect.
The way to get whatever you wish is not to greedily grab for it. The way to get what you wish to have is to attract it by the way you live.
You cannot receive anything of real value without giving real value. Sincerely give of yourself, and you cannot help but receive meaningful value as you do.
Life’s abundance has no limit, and is always increasing. Be someone who furthers that increase, and experience the best of the abundance you are helping to create.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150522.html#ZCkD0K3iiV8OotRO.99

You deserve achievementIf you have an objective but take no action, the objective is nothing more than an empty wish. If you take action but have no objective, your action is just a waste of time and energy.
Combine a clear, meaningful objective with effective, persistent action. That’s what makes the magic of achievement happen.
It is a reliable formula, and a simple formula, but not an easy one. The value of achievement is built by working through difficult challenges.
It is not easy, and yet you can do it. It is not easy, and yet it is well worth your time and commitment.
In your imagination right now is a certain thing, or condition, or experience you wish to create. Give that objective a name, fill in all the details of how it will look, then do the work to make it happen.
You deserve, and are fully capable of the unique satisfaction that comes from achievement. Visualize it now, and go get what you deserve.

Get yourself feeling greatThere are countless things you can do to change the way you feel. So there is never any reason to feel less than your best.
If you are feeling unmotivated, it’s because you have chosen that feeling. When you are feeling joyful, it’s because you have chosen to.
Yes, the world around you shakes and shudders into and out of various conditions. Yet the way you feel about whatever happens, and your place in it, is ultimately up to you.
Feel confident and successful, and you’ll find yourself acting just like a confident, successful person would act. Decide to feel creative, and you’ll soon be expressing your creativity.
If you don’t feel like doing whatever you must do, change the way you feel. And get the task done.
Think an empowering thought, listen to uplifting music, go to an inspiring place, or do whatever it takes to get yourself feeling great about life. Then enjoy the process of transforming that feeling into reality.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150525.html#3E50llcKmzkyjvv5.99

Life is amazingStop for a moment and consider how wondrous life is. Remind yourself that despite all the pains and challenges, problems and frustrations, life is amazing.
Life is amazing, and the possibilities for expressing its beauty and magnificence are endless. You could come up with dozens of new ways to experience life each day, and never run out.
Make it your business to do that. You have life, which itself is amazing, and you have this day, so take it upon yourself to put something new and valuable into it.
You don’t have to make headlines to have a rich and fascinating life. There are plenty of opportunities in each seemingly ordinary day to add extraordinary substance to your world.
It all starts with reminding yourself what a wondrous and amazing thing your life is. Feel the possibilities that come with every breath, and live with a constant sense of real gratitude.
Life is amazing, and you have it right now to live in your own unique way. Feel the magnitude of opportunity that is yours, and make the very most of it.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150526.html#BxHB3lOKCUMqUsIM.99

Whatever changes may comeYou cannot stop life from changing, and you wouldn’t really want to. Life by its very definition is a process of change.
Though you cannot stop life from changing, you can choose to successfully deal with the changes. In fact, you can learn, adapt and adjust in ways that change your own life for the better.
Every time the world changes, new positive opportunities are born. And somewhere, in some way, the world is changing in every moment.
Instead of wishing that things had stayed the same, find the new possibilities that have been created. Choose to see that what can be gained is more valuable than what has been lost.
Security is not found by denying or hiding from the changes. Lasting security comes from being able to thrive and prosper, with your integrity intact, no matter what changes may come.
Whatever the change of the day or the moment may be, there is a positive response. Challenge yourself to find that response, and to make every change a change for the better.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150527.html#cHq0M2jbcpBuK8t9.99

Stories you tell yourselfWhat stories are you telling yourself about yourself? Are they stories of curiosity, courage, action and achievement, or stories of victimization and self pity?
Many things about you are true because you tell yourself they are true. Many aspects of the way you live and act, think and view the world can change by simply changing the stories you tell yourself about yourself.
You deserve a life that is full and rich. Envision the story of that life, and start repeating it to yourself.
The way you respond to life is a function of the way you see yourself responding to life. The way you move through each day is deeply affected by the way you imagine yourself doing so.
Think of the stories you’re telling yourself about your work, your relationships, your priorities, your challenges and your day. Look for opportunities to make those stories more positive and empowering.
You can tell yourself whatever stories you choose. Choose to tell yourself stories that point you toward the best life you can experience.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150528.html#D2wp6sPBoziFsTbk.99

UnencumberedToday, you can be unencumbered by your own shortcomings. Because you can choose to live your life beyond those shortcomings.
You can decide right now not to continue the self-destructive habits. You can free yourself to think the thoughts and take the actions that will raise you above your past disappointments.
The world will present plenty of challenges to you today. But you don’t have to add to those challenges with your own attitude and behavior.
In fact, you can put yourself in a position to welcome the challenges. You can welcome the challenges, knowing you have what it takes to transform them into life-enriching achievements.
You’ve always had control over the way you think and the way you act. Now, exercise that control to the fullest and most positive degree.
This is your moment, this is your day, energized by the power of your intention. Feel the lightness, feel the possibilities, feel the excitement of being free to soar, and do it.

Think and then actThink your actions through, but don’t think them away. Carefully consider what you do, but don’t let consideration take the place of action.
It is powerful to think about what you’re doing. For that power to be meaningful, you must actually do.
You’re too good, too worthy to merely imagine and fantasize about living a great life. Give substance to your dreams by giving real, sustained action to your thoughts.
You’re too capable and resourceful to allow your time to be wasted on fruitless speculation. Put your skills to work by putting your intentions into action.
Think and then act. Strategize and then implement that strategy.
Action without thought is reckless, and thought with no action is wasted. Merge the power of thought with the power of action, and do the great things you were born to do.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150530.html#tcazFYBLatacVv5p.99

In every detailWhatever you’re doing, put your passion, love, full attention and awareness into it. Give all you have to even the smallest of acts.
The richness of life is created in the living of it. Fulfillment comes not from getting, taking, having or keeping, but from being and becoming.
In every detail of your life there is the opportunity for greatness. The more of yourself you put into all you do, the more successful you will be.
Always remember that this moment, this day is not a practice or preparation. Now is when real life happens.
Give your energy, your attention, your thoughts and your love to what you are doing right now. Put yourself fully into what you do, and whatever you do will be of much value.
There is no task too small or too large to ignore. Make life rich by living every moment, by thinking every thought, and by performing every act with all the greatness that is in you.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150601.html#J5LLK57yC8cSU1zu.99

Admit that you are youNothing is going to solve all your problems for you. However, you are completely capable of addressing each and every one of those problems yourself.
The energy to do so will come from a compelling purpose. Somewhere within you is that purpose, and what you must do is forge a solid connection to it.
In the things that you love, the things you dislike, the things that excite you and the things that frustrate you, are hints of that purpose. The quickest connection to your driving purpose is to admit that you are you.
Admit that you are you, with your quirks, your passions, your doubts, your values, and all the other truths about you. Admit that you are you, and admit all that you treasure about life.
Don’t struggle to fit into someone else’s pre-defined mold. Chart your own course, be your own person, and harvest the real value in your own purpose.
In your own beautiful uniqueness you will find the inspiration and energy to move positively forward. Admit you are you, and manifest your own special greatness.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150602.html#PwydrcwGjApq8Wte.99

Get betterDon’t just get by. Get better.
Don’t stop when you’ve merely done enough. Keep going and take full advantage of the powerful momentum you have created.
You have what it takes to exceed your highest expectations. So expect the very best, and then do even more.
When you’ve made a little progress, keep it up. When you’re on the right track, keep moving.
Instead of rushing to get the job finished, look for all the ways you can extend and expand your efforts. Feel the satisfaction of making a difference, and let it inspire you to make an even bigger difference.
Enjoy all that you can achieve. And then build on those achievements to enjoy even more.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150604.html#kayoTfs1RMgFGcI6.99

AmbitionTake on more than you can handle, then do what is necessary to handle it. Promise more than you can deliver, then find a way to deliver more than you have promised.
Playing it safe is dangerous to your future. Get the juices of your ambition flowing, and get some great stuff done.
Stop waiting around, hoping you’ll come across something that makes you more passionate about life. Start putting lots of effort, with plenty of determination and commitment, into what you’re doing, and you’ll be overflowing with passion and with success.
Stand up and look, with awe and amazement, at the opportunity that’s right in front of you. Then claim the opportunity and jump into it with everything you have.
Think up strategies instead of excuses, then implement those strategies with persistent action. Be willing to get it wrong for as long as it takes to get it right.
Do what you know you can do, and then do a whole lot more. There’s plenty of richness to be lived, so get going and make it happen.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150605.html#UujyupdpqyidbByR.99

Let life be goodLife is good, if you will let it be. Life is good, when you focus on its most positive aspects.
Let life be good by letting go of the need to satisfy your ego. Let life be good by letting go of the need to impress others with how impressive you are.
Let life be good, just because it is, just because you have the opportunity to live it. Let life be good by focusing more on the solid, enduring substance and less on the fleeting, superficial things.
Let life be good by seeing the best in others, those with whom you disagree as well as those with whom you agree. Let life be good by finding the positive aspects of every situation, and by acting to create a positive outcome.
Let life be good by allowing yourself to be curious, filled with a sense of wonder and awe. Let life be good by giving of yourself, experiencing how great it feels to make a difference.
Let this day, this moment, this life be good by living with gratitude for it all. Let life be good, and you make it even better for everyone.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150606.html#yQDiwfgTzmXTIOW2.99

Use the powerYou have the power to make your life better. Use it.
You have the power to transform difficult situations into valuable achievements. You have the power to successfully work through whatever challenges lie in front of you.
If you are stuck in an unsatisfying rut, you have the power to get unstuck. When circumstances change, you have the power to adapt and to prosper.
It doesn’t matter that you’ve abused or neglected your power in the past. What matters is that you can use your power now.
You have the power to choose your thoughts and to choose your actions. You have the power to focus your time, your energy and your life in a positive, rich and meaningful direction.
You have the power to fill your world with the best things you can imagine. Imagine those beautiful things, without limit, and use your power to make them so.

Now be thankfulBe thankful for the discomfort. It pushes you to move yourself forward.
Be thankful for the dissatisfaction. It reminds you, it compels you, to make more positive choices.
Be thankful for the frustration. It helps you discover more effective ways of taking action.
Whatever the world throws in your path, be thankful for the opportunity to experience it. Be thankful, and in a state of sincere gratitude discover the treasure that has just been laid at your feet.
There is never any good reason to feel sorry for yourself, and never any good result to come of it. Always is a way to be thankful, and always great value in doing so.
Now, be thankful. Touch the beauty, grasp the richness, live the wonder suddenly available in this moment to you.

Whatever you allowThe most miserable people are those who think only of themselves. Let go of self-centered concerns, and let the happiness that is your birthright flow forth.
The most desperate people are those who obsess over their needs. Step back, see that much of what you may think you need, you don’t, and free yourself to fulfill your highest values.
Whatever you chase, eludes you. Whatever you allow, gathers around you in great measure.
Allow your love to settle upon all those who surround you. Allow your generous nature to express itself in all you do, in what you say, and in the way you relate.
Allow your dreams, interests, passions, preferences and priorities to make themselves known, sincerely, honestly, lovingly. Allow and encourage the best in others, and discover how it brings out the best in you.
Allow this moment, this day, this life you share to be as beautiful as you know it can be. Allow true richness, and watch as it spreads throughout your world.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150610.html#VwLqkjU1gLGX5HeE.99

Empty pursuitsThere are plenty of things you can do to keep busy, to keep yourself feeling like you are doing something. Yet what you’re really after is not just the feeling of doing something, but the experience of doing something that matters.
Busy work is enticing because it doesn’t ask much of you and doesn’t force you to make any real decisions. Yet the desire to be busy will not be fully satisfied by busy work.
What you have is a desire to do something significant, that makes a difference. It is a desire to express your purpose through your efforts.
If you’re spending a lot of time doing busy work that’s mostly empty, you have an opportunity. You can decide to let go of some of that busy work, and suddenly you have time to do some truly magnificent and meaningful things.
When it seems there’s no time for doing what will make a real difference in the world, the problem is not a lack of time. The problem is filling too much of that time with empty pursuits.
Instead of merely appearing busy, fill your moments with purposeful actions. And know how great it feels to be making meaningful progress.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150611.html#0skj5GrA84J9bs3m.99

Temporary situationFailure is temporary. And so is success.
When you’ve failed, it’s good to keep in mind that you can go on to succeed. When you have had some success, it’s important not to become complacent.
The way things are today is not the way they will always be. Tomorrow will be different, and now you can have an impact on what that difference will be.
No matter how enjoyable or discouraging, exciting or troublesome this moment may be, it is a temporary situation. You will definitely move beyond it and the only question is, in what direction?
So focus your thoughts not on the pleasures or disappointments that have brought you here, but on how you will make good use of this moment. Envision a more positive and fulfilling world, and start taking steps to make it so.
Each day is a temporary situation, and yet you can use each day to move toward lasting richness. Grab the value of right now, and push it purposefully into your own bright future.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150612.html#kTvSyzO7mbJRLHEX.99

You can decide what your attitude will be. In your ability to decide there is great power.
You can decide how much to let things get to you. You can decide what to do and what not to do.
You are not a victim of what happens to you. You are the result of the way you interpret and deal with what happens.
You are the result of your choices. You are not stuck in any particular pattern or situation, unless you choose to be.
You are free to make of this moment, and every moment, what you will. Decide right now to make it outstanding.

Energy to move forwardYour burdens feel heavy because they are. They weigh you down and hold you back, but there is a better alternative.
You can choose to transform the weight of those burdens into positive energy. And you can draw upon that positive energy to move yourself forward.
The burdens you carry are creatures of the past that have survived to push against you in the present. Take a deep, fresh breath of the air that is right now, and fill yourself with resolve to take good, useful energy from those burdens.
Think of what you’ve done in the past to put yourself in the presence of your burdens. Now think of how you can use your energy and your actions to move yourself toward freedom.
You have worked your way to this point, and you can now work your way far beyond it. Imagine what is possible, choose from it whatever you desire, and begin right away to take the actions that will get you there.
Stop seeing your burdens as holding you back and start seeing them for what they can be. Take energy and inspiration from them, and choose to live life on your own positive, fulfilling terms.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150615.html#uLAAAX63Vtr8rBSL.99

ContinueWhen you are making progress, continue. When you are in the zone and being effective, make use of your momentum.
Continue, and you will transform a minor success into a major achievement. Continue, and build more value on top of the value you’ve created.
It is tempting to stop when you’ve done enough. Yet you know you can do much more than that, and somewhere, deep down inside, you’ll be disappointed in yourself if you pass up the opportunity.
Feel how great it feels to make a difference in your world. Then, harness that great feeling to make an even bigger difference.
In every achievement is the opportunity for more achievement, yet that opportunity quickly fades. So grab the opportunity while it’s still fresh and powerful, and use it.
Do the work, give your best, and then continue. You’re on a roll and there’s no sense in stopping.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150616.html#TSzjFcgXZ8fHk28u.99

Following your adviceIf you knew someone in your own situation, what advice would you give that person? What course of action, what priorities, what strategies would you suggest?
Think about that, and then think about this. Are you, right now, following your own advice?
It’s easy to know what to do when you’re not the person who has to do it. When you actually have to implement the advice, things get complicated and uncomfortable.
Yet good advice is good advice. And you are well positioned to give yourself good advice.
Yes, it will involve some real work to do what you know must be done. Fortunately, as difficult as it may be, you can absolutely do that work and follow the advice you yourself would offer.
So go ahead, be brutally honest and give yourself the advice you need to hear. Then take it to heart, put it into action, and make the progress you know you can make.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150617.html#TV2Shu63Jo2uXwvo.99

Never too much troubleLife is best enjoyed not by sitting on the sidelines and watching, but by jumping in and taking part. Whatever you must do, it is never too much trouble.
When there is a way you can make a difference, then by all means make it. If there is something you have to offer, then offer it, with gratitude and enthusiasm.
Don’t just sit there desperately maintaining the fantasy that you’re better than everybody else. Humble yourself to being a sincere servant of life’s best possibilities and see how great it all can really be.
Stop looking for ways to avoid effort and instead start developing strategies to make each effort more effective. Feel your true greatness through the meaningful work you do.
Step back and realize again how fortunate you are to be here today, right where you are. Then step in and put that good fortune to work in new and exciting ways.
Joy awaits, so go get it and share it through your efforts as widely as you can imagine. Life awaits, so live it fully and see for yourself that it’s never too much trouble.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150618.html#pEO8T0FSog8z2lrf.99

The value of what you giveWhat is really valuable is not anything you get. What brings the greatest value to your life is what you give.
The investment of your time, effort, attention and caring, makes life rich. That richness comes not from the results you get, but from the degree to which you give.
Having the opportunity to give your love is far more valuable than having love directed toward you. If all the world loved you and you had nowhere to direct your own love, life would be unbearably empty.
So love, without expecting love to be returned. Give, not because of what you will get but because the giving itself is so fulfilling.
Take the fulfillment to an even higher level by encouraging and enabling others to give as well. Allow yourself to be loved, as a way for you to deepen your love for others, giving them the opportunity to love.
Live richly by giving the unique richness already inside you. Give of yourself, sincerely, continuously, and experience life from its most fulfilling perspective.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150619.html#WDtEMt7wfmwM1yDW.99

Getting thereTake care not to focus too much on plotting out a way to get there. Direct the bulk of your attention, time and energy to actually getting there.
It’s good to have a workable process. Remember, though, that the goal is to get results and not to merely perfect the process.
When the objective is clear and meaningful, and the passion is there, you will manage to work your way to the results you seek. Although many of the steps you take will be from your plan, some of the most important steps will come from your desire to move forward.
You cannot possibly know everything that will happen along the way. Yet you can always know that with a strong enough desire, you will find a way no matter what.
Don’t let your planning take away from your doing. Enjoy the confidence of knowing that even if your plans don’t work out, you can still reach the goal.
Keep your eye on the prize, your heart in the effort, and your passion burning steadily. There is a way to get it done, and you will find it and make it happen.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150620.html#6d7wJAs3g60m2xeT.99

Hope into actionIt takes more than hope to make things happen. Still, hope is a good and powerful thing.
Being hopeful will not magically bring whatever you hope for. Yet it is infinitely better than being hopeless.
If you let it, hope will inspire you to action. When you persist in the hope and persist in the doing, you’ll find that your hope was well founded and helpful.
Hope is not something that must depend on outside conditions, so you can choose hope no matter what is going on. You can always choose hope because you can always choose what to do with it.
Let your hope give you a little bit of comfort and reassurance. But more than that, let it challenge you and inspire you to do the difficult work that brings what you hope into reality.
Hope for the best, then transform that hope into a vision with a solid, practical path for moving forward. Put your hope into action, and create a reality above and beyond the best you could hope for.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150622.html#43uqx28MFgEpRjuM.99

Follow through and get it doneWhatever you are working on is important enough to deserve your focus and your continued effort. If you’ve chosen to begin the effort, keep going until it is finished.
Once you’ve decided to get it done, don’t allow yourself to doubt yourself. Just go ahead, maintain your focus and keep up the work until you’re finished.
Your initial instinct was to get started, so trust that instinct. Honor your choice by following through with it.
Yes, it could get tedious or frustrating, and you’ll probably be tempted to jump to something else. But if all you ever do is jump to the next thing before the first is finished, you’ll never get anything accomplished.
It’s easy to come up with a perfectly reasonable excuse to quit. Yet a small accomplishment is far superior to the most well-reasoned excuse.
Follow through, keep going, and get it done. Your future self will thank you over and over again.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150623.html#Jymc0FcVWKXqwCsL.99

Open yourselfOpen yourself to life’s great possibilities. Let go of doubt, hesitation, fear and mistrust, and let new richness unfold through you.
Be willing to do good and valuable things that you’ll never get credit for. Each time you do, you invite more achievement into your world.
Begin each day with gratitude for all that is. And by the end of the day, you will have discovered all kinds of new things for which to be thankful.
Give yourself permission to not get it perfect, to look a little foolish, to laugh, to cry and to admit you don’t know. Give yourself a constant push to act on your intentions, to actually do what you’ve decided to do, and know you must.
Be thankful that you don’t know it all, and always eager to learn more. Be generous with your time, your efforts, your ideas, your genuine praise and encouragement.
You are immersed in an endless sea of possibilities. Be open, sincere, thankful and willing, and craft those possibilities into a rich and fulfilling life.— Ralph Marston Read more at greatday.com/motivate/150624.html#qu9RS5D3qfx5zWCO.99
