Off the map I fell...

For those who were accustomed to reading this daily, even it's short life, I apologize for my absence. Even I fall victim to the negatives in life. I couldn't find a way to post something positive or reassuring when I myself wasn't feeling such..

BUT TODAY THAT ENDS.

DID YOU HEAR ME WORLD.

TODAY WE FLIP SHIT. 

TODAY IS THE DAY THAT WE TAKE THE REIGNS. 

I WILL OWN TODAY.

YOU WILL OWN TODAY.

REPEAT AFTER ME: I WILL OWN TODAY.

Do What Makes You Happy!

God Damn Right. Do What Makes You Happy. Change What Doesn't. 

Sounds simple enough. So get out there and achieve it. Not to get even more cliche but I will. You are your own worst enemy. Many times we find ourselves not striving for something better because we are too comfortable with how things are. We take the good and bad in stride and work with it. What if I told you that you could have it all, all the happiness. Sounds crazy doesn't it.

Make it a reality, today. 

If there is something in your life that doesn't make you happy. CHANGE IT. Make the change that you want for your life. If you have a goal, work towards it, FULL STEAM AHEAD. Achieve the happiness that you deserve. 

Modestep - Another Day

As always: OWN TODAY. 
You got this. 
Make your life better one day at a time. 
Not politely suggesting. 
Demanding. 
I want everyone to be happy. 

There is No Losing, Only Delayed Victory.

237 years ago today, the men of our country stood up and demanded a change to their way of life. They signed the Declaration of Independence and gave the British the proverbial finger. These glorious men made life their bitch.  These men took a risk. They took a monumental risk!

So that's what today's post is about: Taking Risks. Without the risk taken by the men and women of our country, we would possibly be looking at a completely different way of life. They fought a long up road battle and never backed down. Defeat was not an acceptable option. They new victory would be theirs. Defeat should never be an option for you.

We often forget the risks that they took 200+ years ago that have allowed us to get where we are today. We mustn't forget our past. The trials and tribulations of our history are what make us who we are to this day. They are what make us great individuals.

Today, I demand that you take a risk. Go out of your comfort zone. Even if that means simply trying a new food, do it!

Today, Make Life Your Bitch!

The Challenge

Today is July 1. Your challenge if you choose to accept it: HAVE A GREAT MONTH!

Stay positive every damned day. If you force yourself to dwell on the negative, shit, that's what you will be stuck on. Open your eyes and find the light shining through.

Even if you are having a rough day, there has to be some small bit that makes you smile. I was having a rough go the other day and you know what I did? I looked at my son and daughter, they both smiled at me. Right then and there my day was changed.

If my general happiness and optimistic outlook drives you up the wall, I don't apologize. This is me. This is who I have become and will continue to be.

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and...bad things. 

The good things don't always soften the bad things, 

but vice versa, the bad things don't necessarily spoil 

the good things or make them unimportant.
