The First Monday

When you got up to go to work today were you giddy with excitement to start the year off fresh or were you full of dread?  Were you saddened that the holidays are over and you have to get yourself into a new routine?  Do you miss your family so much that you want to share more time with them?

In the current economy, you might be grateful just to have a job even if you don’t really like it, which begs the question; why are you investing so much time in something you don't love.  Money?  Duty?  Habit?  Fear?

Each morning you have a choice.  You can get up bleary-eyed and mumble, “Good God, it's morning.” or awake refreshed and bright-eyed and say, “Good Morning, God.”

Today, appreciate what you have.  Find, create or develop excitement, maybe even inspiration for the year ahead for yourself or better yet, for others.

If you're not happy where you are, you just found a great goal to work on.  If you’re fortunate enough to actually be happy where you are, good for you, now go help your co-workers get in that same affirming and confident place.

Have a great day.  It's up to you.

Chapter One - Free

Happy Saturday. Today I’ve decided to give away the first chapter of my latest book, “How to Stay When You Want to Quit; Re-scripting your life from whiner to winner”.

I’m doing so because, in the first few weeks of the year, I’ve spoken with many ordinarily happy people who are currently feeling cynical, stumped or scared. Change and uncertainty has a way of making us feel that way. Interestingly, so can the lack of change. If the status quo is no good, you can easily get in an r.u.t. (regularly uninspired and tired). Either way, this may help.

Begin reading the familiar story of Max and Madeline and learn how she helps Max turn his attitude and life around. Feel free to forward this chapter to someone you think could use it.

The link below takes you to a page where you can download the first chapter.
