Be Your Best

Posted on May 17, 2022 by Elevate

Be your best! The main recipe I know of for emotional disaster is to not become what you know you are capable of. Whatever you can be, you must be. Believe in yourself. You can be what you want to be. Break those shackles of inhibition and go after what you want.

Guard Your Thoughts

Posted on April 19, 2022 by Elevate

You must guard your thoughts to get what you want. Your mind is hungry. Your mind goes after whatever stimulus you put in front of it. Garbage in really does equal garbage out! If we feed our minds with negative news, conversations, people, and music, our output becomes negative. My dad always told me, “If you want to soar with the eagles, you cannot hang out with turkeys.” Surround yourself with ...

Guard your Influences

Posted on March 11, 2022 by Elevate

Do you only take advice from people you want to be like? This can be a big one if you answered no. If you take advice from people that you do not want to be like, you begin to think the way they think and have what they have. Only, only, only take advice from people that you want to be like. If you don’t, many times, especially when someone is giving you unsolicited advice, they are trying to conv...

Focus

Posted on November 11, 2021 by Elevate

Self-leadership involves developing a fierce focus to achieve what you want. When I say fierce focus, I mean fierce. People who shine with self-leadership have blocked off times, daily or weekly, to do nothing but focus on what they want and how they are going to get it. They guard this time with everything they have. Folks, everyone and everything around you competes for your time. It must be gua...

Is it to raise children? Is it to become financially rich? What is it for you? It means man...

Our minds are our greatest encourager. Examples of positive self-talk are, “I can do this; nothing is going to stop me; I believe in myself; I am strong and courageous.” Try saying these now..... Feels good, doesn’t it? Our minds talk to us all of the time, remember? We all have that little voice in our head. If you don’t think you have a voice in your head, it’s the voice that just said, “What...

Who Cares What Others Think?

Posted on August 3, 2021 by Elevate

Here are a couple of examples where not caring what others think may be taking it too far. This first example involves connection versus isolation. There is a difference between not caring what others think and not wanting to be part of the herd. If you want to be totally independent of others and want to sing out loud in public places and wear underwear on top of your head, that is great; however...
