Oct 2, 2017 - Are you getting to it? Are you focusing on the things that really matter in what you are trying to achieve? Or are you allowing everything that is coming at you dictate what you do and the actions you are taking? Whatever you get around to doing each day is demonstrating what you are considering most important to be doing, whether it is how you really feel or not. If you are frustrated by not making progress on goals or things you really want to be doing, consider how you are...

May 1, 2017 - Is everything relying on you? Did you wake up this morning excited and ready to take on the work week with gusto? Did you benefit from a weekend of enjoyment and relaxation or feel pressure to get countless things done at home before launching into the work week? Are you constantly thinking about how much you have on your plate, how much you must get done or have to do? Are you frustrated by what you are not getting done or can never seem get around to doing? If you are feeling...

Feb 15, 2016 - Are you wishing or intending? Do you find yourself wishing "if only" something could be different ... you could be different ... something would happen ... some sort of miracle would take place? When you are caught in a wishful mindset, you are passively seeing it as something that must happen for you, or to you, before you can do anything associated with it. The reality is that you have great power to make things happen. It starts with how you are conceiving and perceiving...

Feb 8, 2016 - Are you giving enough? Are you giving yourself enough credit for what you have already accomplished? Are you giving it your all in something you truly aspire to be doing? Are you giving yourself in a way that is nurturing and fulfilling? Giving is one of our greatest sources of strength, gratification and satisfaction when put into perspective for all that it can be. Giving oneself the benefit of the doubt ... giving oneself permission to go for it ... giving oneself faith and...

Jan 18, 2016 - Are you seeking validation? Are you out to prove something that is putting a greater emphasis on the need to prove it versus accomplishing it? Do you feel the need to have others confirm to you that you are good at what you do? While challenging yourself and gaining kudos from others has merit, when the focus is more on the validation, making it the why behind what you are trying to achieve, it can easily begin to feel like a constant "not quite ever good enough" mindset. This...

Jan 11, 2016 - Are you striving or thriving? Are you continually going after the next level, without celebrating how far you have already come? Are you so focused on goals, that you have lost sight of what they even really mean to you or those who are in your life? It is perfectly fine and can be exhilarating to strive for something. Too often the pressure associated with striving makes a person feel like whatever is accomplished is never quite good enough. When you have this mindset, you may...

Nov 23, 2015 - Is your past impeding your present? Are you caught up in a mindset of allowing the past to consume too much of your thinking, perhaps more than you realize? Do you feel you missed out on something, and cannot ever get it back? Do you wish certain things were the way they used to be instead of what you are going through right now? The only part of the past you should bring with you into the future are any lessons learned and memories cherished. Anything else is simply clouding up...

Nov 9, 2015 - Do you believe it? Have you set some stretch goals that while you want to believe you can achieve them, you don't fully believe? Do you find yourself questioning whether you really have what it takes to get where you ultimately want to go? Believing is a mindset more than it is anything else. If you didn't believe in your own abilities, you wouldn't have gotten to where you are right now. If you didn't believe your goals were possible, you would not have thought of them in the...

Oct 12, 2015 - Need a little more patience? Are you finding yourself in a state of impatience on a regular basis about pretty much everything that is occurring around you? Are you tired of waiting for a result you had expected would have occurred by now, and frustrated by not knowing what is your next best move to get things rolling forward? Patience is something that has been put even more to the test by the convenience and immediate gratification mindset our society has created. What you need...

Sept 14, 2015 - Could you be rushing things? Are you feeling as though aspects of your life are not happening as fast as you would like them to be occurring? Do you feel like you are continuously in a "hurry up and wait" mode of being? Is your anxious mindset focusing so much on what is not occurring that you are missing opportunities in what is occurring? Take an MM&I Moment to explore the possibilities that may exist all around you once you take a moment to pause and consider them amidst...
