For Motivation: all throughout day, if you can remember and try to stay in moment (called mindfulness) when things aren't quite as exciting-- then you will come to realize that at every given moment you have everything you need.

This is not mumbo jumbo. In years past, I went through an upsetting situation or 2 myself. Yet, I honestly can say: there might have been things I wanted, or felt I needed, in those moments. BUT, in absolute miniscule of moment-- right there and then-- I could realize that with situation / circumstance unchangeable then (even as it was) I had everything I was going to have.

And THERE-- in that space, in each breath, I was infinitely -- ok. (even if I "felt" horrible). Often times, you will find you are much, much more than "ok". You are truly BLESSED-- especially compared to those in war torn villages, or third world countries.

No one has to wait until their 30's to begin to realize how to live their life on course and as a fulfilling joy. In fact many of us set goals, had hobbies, and lived in moment as teenagers. Maybe we were onto something back then!

If life has thrown you a curve you never intended on-- fire right back! Don't give up. Instead find your motivation again in each day as you live on purpose with goals and designs that bring your life joy and pleasure.

Work daily to keep before you things to achieve, elements that bring delight, and all along way stay reflective in moment. If you can do this-- your motivation should naturally grow on a daily basis.

Until next time--- all best, Kate

The Power Of "We" Its difficult to step out of your own shoes (and ego), and allow others to help you grow, succeed or achieve. After all, we all love to take credit for something that we had a part in, even with a limited role. For example, look at movie credits. You see how many people are listed even guy who swept floor behind scenes gets his few seconds of fame in credits!

Oftentimes when speaking, we focus on singular: "I", "Me", and "My". That is: "I completed this job" or "I want it my way" or "Me! Me! Me!" But it doesn't work that way! Not if you want to successfully persuade your people towards your side.

CHALLENGE: In everyday life, when speaking to others use words like "we" and "us" rather than very common singular words. It helps identify with others and makes them feel as though they are an integral part of a team. They'll quickly notice it! In fact, if you're lucky enough, you might even see one of them perk up and crack a smile of excitement.

A great leader focuses their efforts on praising their team and uses words like "We", "Us" and "the Team". Not only does it inspire others to achieve further success with you, but it also builds rapport so theyll want to work with you again.

Besides, its much more powerful to say "We." Its much more intimidating to say "We confronted, we conquered." It'll sound like youve got a big following behind you, and with right persuasive communication techniques, you soon will!
