Vitamin F is for FUN!

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: ,

“People rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they are doing.” ~ Dale Carnegie

Now this is right up my alley! I am about having fun! Now, I hear some of you serious types saying we have to work, we have to earn a living, or we have to take care of business. I am not saying we don’t, but what I am saying is we can have fun while doing it. So we don’t work…we create; we don’t earn a living…we innovate and the money flows. We don’t take care of business, we have fun and business will take care of us!

Listen to what Mr. Carnegie said.

Just for today, have FUN!

Vitamin E is for Empathy

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , , ,

“Anyone who has experienced a certain amount of loss in their life has empathy for those who have experienced loss.” ~ Anderson Cooper

I think it is unfortunate that we were never taught empathy in school. We must wait until we enter the school of adversity and grief before we learn about being empathetic to another.

Whereas sympathy means to care and offer support; empathy goes deeper. It means really feeing the emotions of the other; literally feeling what it is like to walk in their shoes.

Just for today, feel for another and be empathetic!

Vitamin D is for Decisive

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , , , ,

“But the cure for most obstacles is, Be decisive.” ~ George Weinberg

Sometimes it is difficult to make a decision. But not making a decision is also a decision. When you do not make a deliberate decision, then life throws you whatever it wants. Once again, you end up in victim mode.

Just for today, be decisive!

Vitamin C is for Conscious

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , ,

“A life lived of choice is a life of conscious action. A life lived of chance is a life of unconscious creation.” ~ Neale Donald Walsch

Most of our lives are lived on autopilot; either very routine or very random. Start living your life consciously and intentionally. When you do, you can manifest whatever you desire; and not be a victim of circumstances.


So just for today, be conscious!

Vitamin B is for Broken

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , ,

“God breaks the heart again and again and again until it stays open.” ~ Hazrat Inayat Kahn

This is one of my favorite quotes. It speaks of empathy in the deepest sense. When our hearts are broken open, we can deeply feel for another. When our hearts are closed, it is impossible to feel for another. 



Just for today, stay broken!

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , ,

“Appreciation is the highest form of prayer, for it acknowledges the presence of good wherever you shine the light of your thankful thoughts.” ~ Alan Cohen

Are you hating or appreciating?

Don't wait until it is too late to tell someone you appreciate them. Just tell them!

Just for today, be an appreciator!

Friday’s Purposeful Question

Decide to Be Happy

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: , ,

Just for today, make the decision to be happy. 

How? Change your focus. Focus is power.

If you focus on what's wrong, you will find it everywhere.

If you focus on what's right, you will find it everywhere!

Focus on what's working in your life.
Focus on how far you have come.
Focus on your ability to think, feel and attract.
Focus on someone or something you love.

So, just for today, deliberately focus on something or someone that makes you feel good. 

And have a stellar weekend!
Coach Carolyn

Why Worry?

Posted by Doncrack | Labels: ,

“Worry is like a rocking chair – it gives you something to do but it doesn’t get you anywhere.” ~ Author unknown

STOP, TAKE A BREATH, and ASK:
  • What do you tend to worry about? 
  • What does worrying do for you? 
  • What's the benefit of worrying?

“When I look back on all these worries, I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which had never happened.” ~ Winston Churchill

“There is a great difference between worry and concern. A worried person sees a problem, and a concerned person solves a problem.” ~ Harold Stephens
