every morning when we wake up we need to
empty out anything negative from the day
before somebody offended you at work
they didn’t treat you right it’s easy to
let that offense stay feels good to
carry around a grudge do you have to be
disciplined say no I am NOT giving this
offense any room I am NOT going to let
it sour my day get up in the morning and
invite good things into your life I am
blessed I am strong I am talented I am
disciplined I am focused I am prosperous
[Music]
take inventory of what your giving space
– life is too short to go through it
with negative things holding us down
when you wake up in the morning say
thank you for grace thank you for mercy
thank you for understanding
thank you for wisdom thank you for
parents
thank you for love thank you for
kindness thank you for humility thank
you for peace thank you for Prosperity
say thank you in advance for what’s
already yours say thank you in advance
for what is already yours
[Music]
and we all have negative emotions
negative feelings do you have to make
the choice I’m not going to give this
jealousy this bitterness this anger
valuable space and let it poison my life
I’m going to protect what I allow in me
what follows these two simple words will
determine what kind of life you live
every day on the right side of the grass
is a good day
get up get excited be happy discipline
is the gateway to freedom the im’s that
are coming out of your mouth will bring
either success or failure the universe
can only respond to what you believe
about yourself and about life all
through the day the power of I am is it
worth we make a mistake I am so clumsy
we look in the mirror I am so old we see
somebody very talented I am so average
we get caught in traffic
I am so unlucky many times we use the
power of I am against us we don’t
realize how it’s affecting our future
here’s the principle what follows the I
am will always come looking for you
you get to choose what follows the I am
when you go through the day saying I am
blessed blessings come looking for you I
am talented talent comes looking for you
you may not feel up to par but when you
say I am healthy health starts hitting
your way I am strong strength starts
tracking you down you’re inviting that
into your life that’s why you have to be
careful what follows the I am the time
to enjoy yourself is in the now you are
trying to get to that next level it is
your right to enjoy yourself and now
you’re probably looking at me and you’re
all thinking and some of you might be
saying you know what Steve that makes
sense okay make a choice enjoy myself
but how do you get to enjoy yourself
when you are trying everything you’re
implementing all the tools and all the
information you got but it’s just not
working I’m seeing other people passing
me by how do you get to enjoy yourself
Steve when some of the people are having
really intense problems at home some
people are going through a divorce
they’re having financial difficulties
maybe there’s an illness in the family
you tell me Steve how you are supposed
to enjoy yourself and all these things
are happening to you in your life here
is how you can assure yourself to enjoy
yourself during the process of whatever
it is you’re trying to achieve I want
you to get this because it starts as
soon as you open up your eyes in the
morning or whenever it is that you start
today
as soon as you open up your eyes to
greet the day you enter into
consciousness it is at that moment that
your creativity is at its most powerful
right there and then you have an
opportunity to steer your thoughts and
your emotions in the direction that you
want them to go not in the direction
that they’re telling you to go in other
words you can literally choose to seize
the day or you can let the day seize you
that’s a choice I think you can all
agree that too many people too many
people today soon as they open up their
eyes the first thing that they focus on
is all the grueling stuff they had to go
through the day before all the stuff
that didn’t get accomplished all the
stuff that didn’t get done the irate
people that they had to deal with and
they can’t even understand that they
just started they didn’t even start to
achieve their goals and their energy
level is down here with what you are
trying to do with what you are all
trying to accomplish man your energy
level better be cranked it has to be up
here so what I want you to do as soon as
you open up your eyes to start the days
to immediately start focusing on
something or someone that you are
totally grateful for in your life your
only goal as soon as you open up your
eyes is should be to make yourself feel
good and to give yourself enough
confidence to get through the day don’t
worry about what needs to be done think
about who you have to be in order to get
it done and you do this by focusing on
all the things that you’re grateful for
focus on what’s working in your life
rather than fixating or what is it
working
maybe you’re grateful for the person
that’s lying next to you maybe you’re
thinking of your children maybe it’s a
dog lying on the side of your bed maybe
you listening to the birds outside your
window it’s the wonderful house you live
in maybe it’s the wonderful organization
that you belong to it doesn’t matter
what it is you just feel it with your
heart and soul you build from there and
you keep going why do I want you to do
this because gratitude is the most
powerful connection you have to your
higher-self you always always want to
start your day connected to this higher
self
and when you do when you do life becomes
easier you don’t take things personally
when you’re confronted with a challenge
you just look at it for what it’s worth
it’s a challenge everybody’s confronted
with challenges and you know that
there’s something within you that can
meet it and overcome it
and move forward as a result of it and
the next thing that I want you do soon
as you have this attitude of gratitude
going for you tell yourself you’re going
to enjoy the day say it’s yourself you
know what I’m going to enjoy the day
this is gonna be a good day
visualize how you want your life to go
visualize yourself having fun with your
fellow workers the people you’re working
for who are working for you
doesn’t matter just visualize yourself
achieving the goal and always always
find the laughter within you and around
you every day of your life and action
start in the morning before you leave
the house as Mark Twain said the secret
to getting ahead is getting started
that’s something I want all of you guys
to really embody and really think about
really put at the core of your existence
that step number one to accomplishing
whatever it is that you want to do is
actually getting started and I
understand I know the thing that holds
you back I know the thing that is
absolutely paralyzing for people is you
don’t think that you have what it takes
to go out and be good and rather than
face that difficult brutal process of
growing and getting better and quite
frankly facing your inadequacies it’s
easier just to sit back but as John
Wooden said never let me you cannot do
interfere with what you can there is
something right now that you’re capable
of there is an innate skill inside of
you that’s your spark it’s that starting
point it’s that thing that while you may
not be the best in the world at it it’s
a flame that you can fan it’s something
that you can breathe life into and
really begin to get good but first you
have to understand the
very nature of progress and that’s a
steven covey said you’re not the product
of your circumstances but rather of
product of your decisions and it’s those
decisions that are going to allow you to
build that skill sets don’t worry about
where you started don’t worry about what
you already have
remember it’s the decisions that you
make it’s going down that road it is the
decision to get started
it’s the decision to face a possible
failure it’s the decision to get up
once you’ve failed and it’s the decision
of what to learn when you fail do you
learn that you’re not
never should have tried well do you
learn a lesson from the failure and get
up and brush yourself off and remember
that at the end of the day you’re going
to go as far as you’re willing to fight
for and that’s it if you’re willing to
fight to go all the way then you will go
that far you the set a new bar you will
define for people what is possible to
become that beacon of hope you become
that thing that other people look to as
the standard at the end of the day it
started with huge getting started it
started with you showing up it started
with you pushing and trying
don’t worry about what you have and what
you are focus on who you want to become
and the price you’re willing to pay
together
