The Dalai Lama says that happiness is a habit.
What if you could be “love on wheels”? What if you could be the person who is always happy, regardless of the circumstances?

Monday, February 13th, 2023The Power of Unleashing Dreams
Monday, February 6th, 2023My father had a dream for me. Because I was the fastest typist in my typing class. He said, “Honey, you could stay right in town here, and you could type loan papers and other papers for the law firm in town.”
Now, I don’t know about you, but when I heard those words, it was like, some kind of dagger in my heart. I decided at that time, that is not my dream.
I want something else in life. I wasn’t sure exactly what it would be, but I knew it wasn’t going to be typing papers at the law firm.
I decided I wanted to have something different.
I think the power of great dreams is the power to understand that any one of us can make a difference in other people’s lives.
Meaning, I never knew that I could use that skill to become a New York Times bestselling author because that was something that just came as a result of my commitment to helping other people.
I wonder what happens when you have great dreams about the impact you have on your customers, about the impact you have on the rest of your team, about the impact you have on your own life, your own family, your own community.
It’s astonishing what can happen when we have dreams about being of service to others. Welcome it.
Master of My Fate and Captain of My Soul
Monday, January 30th, 2023When Henley wrote, “I am the master of my fate, and I am the captain of my soul,” what he failed to mention was that it’s true because we have the power to control our own thoughts.

Monday, January 23rd, 2023Is this your last day on planet Earth? Probably not, hope not. And yet you never know.
There is no guarantee how long we get to go around this planet. But the reality is that we can make every day we live on this planet our masterpiece by creating opportunities and seeing possibilities and living vivaciously as if this could be our last day on planet Earth.
Yet many people plod along, they wake up in the morning, they make coffee, they drive to work, they punch in, they do their job, they punch out. They drive home, they watch television, they eat dinner, they go to sleep, they wake up, they make coffee, they drive to work, they punch in.
They’re not making their life a masterpiece.
We have one chance every single day to start from scratch, to create opportunities that could change our life forever.
Decide to make today your masterpiece.
The Perfect Cosmic Accounting System…
Monday, January 2nd, 2023Go Above and Beyond Without Asking
Remember the last time someone on your team really had your back? I mean, the time where they really looked out for you.
Doesn’t that feel good when somebody looks out for you, steps in, and goes above and beyond without you even asking? You know what that feels like to be on the receiving end of that.
So what if instead, you became the person who had your teammates’ back? And that you consciously found ways—and chose to execute on those ways—to make sure that you’re stepping in to make their lives better; to help them be more successful in their jobs; to have their back when they’re in trouble.
What would that feel like for you? Yes, it’s going to feel great for them—but I’m asking you this question: What would it feel like for you? Ah, it’s going to feel good, isn’t it… Why?
The World has a Perfect Accounting System
Life gives to the givers and takes from the takers; the world has a perfect accounting system. What an opportunity that we have to make conscious choices about having others’ backs.
So this week before you say “Thank God, it’s Monday” again, set the intention that you will reach out to make a substantial difference in at least three of your co-workers’ lives by having their back and going above and beyond the call of duty.
Isn’t it fun to surprise people?
Have some fun! I can’t wait to hear the stories about what you did…
