At the peak of my misery and depression 19 years ago I started to take 10-30 minute walks of gratitude every morning. While walking I would say what I was thankful for. Doing this floods your brain and body with happy hormones that uplift you and helps you take on the day.

Team beats talent when talent isn’t a team.

I’m not buying the doom and gloom. I’m investing in faith, hope and love.

Great leaders..... -Small ego, big mission. -We before me. -A lot of love and accountability. -A lot of grace and truth. -Demanding but not demeaning. -Loving but not enabling. -Shout praise. Whisper criticism. -High standards, low tolerance for excuses.

Now more than ever it’s important to have a strong immune system. We know that stress weakens our immune system while a positive mindset boosts it. We need to win the mental battle so we can win the physical battle.

People often say that adversity makes you stronger but that’s not always true. Many face adversity and become fearful and fragile as a result. The truth is adversity makes you stronger if you learn from it, stay positive and resilient and use it as fuel for your growth.

The words we speak matter. They help to shape the world around us. That’s why I believe we need to speak words of truth and hope not only to ourselves but to others as well. Here are 20 things we should say more often if we want to make the world more positive.

Think about all that you worry and stress about. Think about the people you’re angry at and the fights you’re engaged in. Now remember that one day you will die. It may sound morbid but it’s true. In the end how do you want to spend your time and energy? Love more. Fight less.

My faith has carried me through my darkest moments of my life and lead to my best moments. When it seemed like all hope was lost I cried out and God undeniably carried me through it all. It’s why I believe and why I know without God I’m nothing.

Don't say, "that can't happen." Don't think, "I don't deserve that." Instead say, "I'm here for a reason. There is a plan for my life. Give me an opportunity and I'll make the most of it. I don't know how it will happen, but I trust it will. I believe anything is possible."

Today is my Mom’s birthday. She would have been 72 today. She passed away at 59. I miss her. I believe I will no matter how old I am. My friends who are 80 still miss their parents so I’m guessing that’s how it is. Have you found this to be true?

Today you have a choice. Get bitter or get better. The past is the past. Learn from it and Let Go. Move forward to create the life you want.

When you are fearful, stressed or putting pressure on yourself remember that one day you will die. Then decide to: -Enjoy your life. -Make the most of today. -Do what matters most. -Fearlessly go for it. -Not waste time on trivial things. -Live without regrets.
