WORRYING HAS NO CONSTRUCTIVE ROLE IN YOUR "GOOD LIFE".
The ego wants you to believe that worry serves a necessary purpose. The absolute truth is that worrying is a complete and total waste of time and never ever serves a positive or beneficial purpose.
On the contrary, worry robs you of your peace, your joy, your creativity and your inherent ability to work through any challenge that you may encounter.
So today and forever, affirm: No Worries!! Focus instead of good feelings and the possibility of great outcomes in all circumstances.

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 97: Who's Your Vision Partner?
Every vision requires energy to be manifested. The bigger the vision the greater the energy required to move it from the invisible realm to the material realm.
Despite our best intentions it is nearly impossible to consistently give an unbroken stream of energy to a vision, no matter how hard we try. For the reason, it is prudent to have a vision partner--a devoted family member, friend, mediation or prayer partner-- who you can trust to hold your vision high during your moments of distraction.

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 95: THE HELPERS
Creating and manifesting your "good life" is not a solo venture, though you may be tempted to approach it as such.
Most desired outcomes require the support, assistance or other input from someone or ones other than You. I call them The Helpers.
And the good news is that Life always provides them to you; always.
The key (and the challenge) is to recognize these Helpers for who they are and to be open to the roles they are to play in bringing about your good life.
Your Helpers are closer than you think and ready to spring into action. Yes!!!

An ageless truth statement says" That which is celebrated increases"---whether it is good for you or not. An this has been demonstrated as unchanging principal through the years. This holds true for virtually anything- tangible or intangible; object or behavior; positive or negative. If you celebrate "it" or give "it" energy, attention, focus, or support, "it" is nurtured and therefore increases.
You, like everyone else on planet earth, have unlimited capacity to celebrate. Will you use it today and if so towards what or whom? The Good, Life, You, Your Vision for Your Good Life? Or something or someone else? What an awesome choice to have!!!!

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 91: One-ness
If the people of the world lived in awareness and recognition of our universal one-ness with each other, the experience of being on earth would be absolutely awesome-- everyone would be living their "good life". We all share a common source and we all share a common destiny; and even on a physical level we now know that the genetic make up of every human is more than 99% identical, regardless of race, sex, stature, age etc. And yet we often live in separation and separateness.
Granted, this is a little less practical, and more abstract, than my typical blog entry on the "good life", but this concept of one-ness is really in my heart and soul today.
So join me in recognizing, celebrating and declaring the one-ness of all humanity today and challenging yourself to go through your day from this point of view. The benefits will accrue to you and the world.

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 90: The Power of Passion
Friends, I can't believe this is my 90th blog entry. Wow. Wow. WOW. You have no idea, how difficult such regularity and constancy have been for me over the course of my life. To do 90 days of anything that wasn't required for a grade, a pay check or to sustain life , was traditionally a challenge for me.
But I have done it. And the fact that I have done 90 blog entries is less about ME and more about the power of passion. I am truly passionate about enlightening folks about their inherent excellence and offering insights on how to channel that excellence into life experience.
Passion makes the impossible into a simplified matters. Deeply seated within passion is intention and will and enthusiasm, all of which fuel my writing of the blog and all of which are powerful inputs to process of bringing about your life of fulfillment.
So focus your mind and your desire on things for which you have true, authentic passion; and expect to be amazed at what you will achieve.

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 89: WATER WATER WATER
We are more than our bodies, yet the health and condition of our bodies affect the quality of the "good life".
It's my intention to do a series of blog entries on eating for the "good life"- insights and affirmations on what is best included and eliminated from our day to day diets.
But in the meantime here is something you can do now towards having a good body for the good life: Increase your consumption of clean, filtered water. Water is the elemental substance of the body. Your body is more than 70% water. And many of us do not drink enough. I follow a nutritional recommendation that we drink 2/3 of our body weight, in ounces of water, per day. At 175 pounds, that's about 116 ounces of water spread out over the course of an average day for me. And body body feels and functions better for it. So drink up and body-up!!

Your feelings have a great impact on the experiences you have in your life. Your feelings drive your perceptions, your thoughts and your actions which, in part and together, shape events and outcomes in your life. The lower level, more negative, fearful and pessimistic feelings breed correspondingly lower level, negative and undesirable experiences and outcomes in your life. THe same corresponding relationship exists between good feelings and good experiences.
In the good life, the key is to gradually and intentionally master your feelings-- substituting feelings of excitement, anticipation, happiness, joy, peace, confidence, patience and positivity for their opposites.
Feelings are powerful attracting and creating energies; so watch, guard and use them wisely.

There is a high level of spiritual truth in this statement. I like it and I am always tempted to add: AND THE CHANGE HAS TO OCCUR WITHIN YOU IF IT IS TO BE A LASTING CHANGE.
Here's the essence of this truth: LIFE is created and lived from the inside out.

R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 76: NO FEAR
R.I.S.E. WORDS: Day 76: NO FEAR
Nope, FEAR is not an inspiring, uplifting, "best-of-life" word. But mastering it is an important step in bringing about the "good life" you desire.
FEAR is one of the top reasons we live below our inherent potential to live wildly fulfilled lives. FEAR is a super toxin to "the good life". It takes on many different forms, all of which have the same ultimate result of holding us back, slowing us down and creating doubt that absolutely undermines our dreams.
The irony, paradox and good news is that FEAR is almost always imagined. It seldom turns out to be real or justified. And it's simple, though not easy, to conquer. I think the best way to do that is to find it, identify it, acknowledge it......then watch it lose its grip and it's strangle=hold on your vision for your "good life".

These, my friend, are the R.I.S.E. Words for today. Five simple words with a big punch. They aren't suggesting that we shouldn't be intense and intentional about our pursuit of our good and our goals. But they are an important "good life" reminder that lightening up and not taking anything too seriously is important. After all, our path, our progress and our desired outcomes are virtually never benefited by our tension, anxiety and on overly serious disposition.
So lighten up, find the good and the potential in everything and every situation---and watch the "good" that will flow to and from you.
