The Daily Do

Do You Want To Develop More Courage? - Day 449

Courage isn’t the absence of fear, it’s the doing it in fear’s face. And it’s the desire and drive to do it anyway you find in your silent place. You’re never going to feel like it, but you start to like courage when you’ve done it once. You learn courage from courage winning, your upward spiral of confidence. Then you need less courage to do more of the things you’ve done, so you move on to bigger things...stillness, courage, doing, done!

Do You Hide Your True Feelings? - Day 448

Fear of being too sentimental can stop you from saying what truly matters to you. 'Slushy, wishy washy, weak and needy, overfamiliar and emotionally underdressed'…we’ve learnt the language of covering up the things we love the best. Your feelings matter, and those you care about should know, so say them out loud, tell the world, then what matters to you will grow.  

Do You Fear Change? - Day 447

'Change' is not a suggestion or a comment on your situation, it’s just a fact, it’s a part of our DNA. It’s in fighting it that you will shrink, resisting against the grain. In stopping for one minute and dreaming through the change, you will find it easy, now that it’s reframed. Embracing growth is at the heart of the contented way, it’s in seeing change as positive that you find still today.

Do You Let Problems Build Up? - Day 446

Nothing stops our river flowing like something on our mind, root out what we’re avoiding and get that one thing done this time! Even harmonious and simple lives get blocked with life's conflict and debris, so once a month it’s good to lift the lid of you and see. What is it that’s bugging you? It’s this stuff that saps our strength. To focus on our growth we must resolve these at any length.

Do You Want A Quiet Mind? - Day 445

Through a quiet mind we see a simple world, with a racing mind a tangled one. Submerge yourself in life’s great rhythm, the majestic elemental flow, and deeply feel the simple truth that nature’s dance is slow. Get outside and touch nature’s hand and stillness surges to quieten your mind, and through these eyes the world simplifies and we let life take it’s time.

Do You Know YOU ARE EXTRAORDINARY? - Day 444

You are extraordinary, extra to the ordinary way...who wants to fit a glove that you wouldn’t wear anyway? Your idea of normal is completely weird to someone else, so don’t strive to be some idea of normal, strive to be yourself.

Do You Use The Power Of A Positive Comment? - Day 443

Positive comments work! The carrot beats the stick, encouragement conquers criticism, positive squashes negative and expecting the best whips cynicism. Science heaps the evidence in piles that tell us 'smile', or 'visualise the victory' before you run the mile. Treat others as you’d like to be treated is a two way road of truth; do you respond better to being encouraged or someone criticising you?

Do You Know How To Have A Break Through? - Day 442

The life you live inside your head stays there unless you act. The business plan that’s only that, the trip that’s still just a map. We are the sum of our repeated actions, for better or for worse, and what we DO we become. There is no power that can replace the dynamic impact of consistency and persistence. Act. And act again, then act again…repeat, repeat, repeat…you will break through, even when your heart hangs low, choose well, repeat, repeat.

Do You Know That Failing Is A Strategy? - Day 441

Every single, majestic act of extraordinary human achievement began with a spark of interest followed by failing forward many thousands of times. We miss every single shot that we do not take, every spark that goes un-kindled dies a thousand deaths, we’ll never know if we don’t try. No adventure? Nothing gained. Learn to thrill at failing, let’s call it growing pain.

Do You Need Some Peace? - Day 440

Today is for stillness and the peace you find there, for the freshness of beginnings in the crisp, silent air. Today is for you to find some silence alone, where you will find you, where you will come home. Sit with yourself and begin to find ground, the you that sings you without making a sound. Today is your day to sit still with yourself, to continue your journey to deep personal wealth.
