November 1

Step right up

Step right up to life today and throw yourself into it. Open your eyes, open your heart, open your mind, open your arms and open your life to all that’s possible.

You have a deep-seated desire to be passionate, so light up that passion right now. Let it energize every part of you.

There is much to explore, much to create, and much to experience. There are things to be learned, challenges to be transformed into value, and connections to be made with others who share your passion for living.

Take stock of all the goodness, all the opportunities, all the powerful tools and resources available to you. Then take action, and make good and meaningful use of it all.

This is a day to live at your highest level. This is your chance to live in such a positive, purposeful way that you can look back on it with satisfaction and gratitude.

Go ahead, and fully engage the living passion that is unique to you. Step right up, confidently, enthusiastically, and experience how great it feels to give your best to life.

— Ralph Marston

Amazing things

You can do amazing things when you put your mind to it. You can do amazing things when you put some time and effort into it.

You can do amazing things when you allow yourself to express your authentic purpose. Today is your opportunity to do amazing things.

Stop assuming you can't do it. Get busy proving you can.

Yes, circumstances are limiting and there's only a certain amount of time. And yes, you can get it done anyway.

Get focused, get started and keep going. Experience the thrill and satisfaction as you rack up new achievements.

Enjoy using your time for more than just getting by. You can do amazing things, so get on it right now.

Quiet acts of kindness

Most of them you never see. Yet everywhere you go, quiet acts of kindness surround you.

Every day, good people live their lives with strength, with purpose, with compassion and integrity. Every day, the whole world is lifted by people who are happy for the opportunity to make a difference.

Those who boast about it or make grand promises are not the ones advancing life's goodness. It's the quiet, sincere kindness, from folks who have no interest in taking credit, that gives each day its special shine.

The world is filled with good, caring people who never make the news and who never care to. The magnitude of their kindness each day is too large and far too widespread to ever be calculated.

Life is good today because so many people choose to see it as good. And in every small moment, each in his or her own way, they humbly give life to the goodness.

Quiet acts of kindness surround you, even now. Feel the goodness and quietly pass it on.

Ralph S. Marston

Always choose excellence
Whatever you do, do it well. Whatever you do, do with excellence.

You can get by in life without engendering excellence, without doing your very best. But merely getting by is not the point.

You have the opportunity to immerse yourself in life's richness, so seize that opportunity and hold on tight. Whatever life delivers, you can transform it into excellence.

With your efforts, pull excellence from the most ordinary moments and the most common tasks. Take advantage of every chance to feel the satisfaction of knowing you have given your best.

Excellence reminds you how much you care. Excellence shows you how great it is to be alive.

You always have a choice of how to think, what to feel, how to act, what to expect and how to live. Always choose excellence.

Ralph S. Marston

Have a little patience

What you gain in an instant can be lost in an instant. Have a little patience, invest in the long term, and create real value that lasts.

Be thankful that the good things take time to build. The time and energy you give are what make the good things worth having.

When you demand to have every desire met immediately, you end up with a whole lot of anxiety and frustration. Have a little patience, allow life to unfold at a rich and sustainable pace, and enjoy fulfillment as it is created.

Hurrying deprives you of living. The point of life is to live it fully, not to rush through every little part.

Take a deep, slow breath, and remind yourself how fortunate you are already. Remind yourself too that being patient and composed is much more effective than being nervous and restless.

Today, in these circumstances, and every day, in every circumstance, have a little patience. And enjoy a rich, rewarding life.

Smile from your heart

Offer the world a smile from your heart today. It's a simple, easy act that upgrades whatever situation you're in.

You look better when you smile, because you are better. A genuine smile pushes away negativity and supercharges your attitude.

Say what you say with a smile on your face, and you exude confidence, enthusiasm and credibility. Spread that smile into the core of your being, and a world of new possibilities suddenly appears in front of you.

Smile when there's a reason, and smile when there's no reason. Smile, and let your smile create its own reasons.

Dare yourself to visualize this day in the most positive, empowering light. Smile with your face, your words, your actions and your attitude.

Give life permission to shower you and all those around you today with goodness and value. Smile, and turn up the brightness in this world.

Immensity of opportunity

Life is here and now. Live it here and now.

Don't waste time reveling in past glories or worrying about future concerns. Get the most from this moment now, while it is here.

Every possibility exists, but you don't need to dwell on those possibilities. Just pick a possibility and go with it, choose a path and explore it.

Feel your desire and follow that desire. Appreciate the beauty around you, get curious, and dive deeply into that beauty and wonder.

Acknowledge what you love, and act to express and fulfill that love. Know you can make a positive difference, and experience the satisfaction of doing so.

Life is rich, beautiful and filled with opportunity. Feel the immensity of opportunity, and live it now.

Ralph S. Marston

Imagine that

Imagine that life is what you think of it. What would you think?

Imagine that anything is possible to achieve. What would you achieve?

Imagine that there are no limitations. How would you find fulfillment?

Imagine that you can see the immense value hidden in every challenge. How diligently would you work to bring that value to life?

Imagine that the future is yours to create in whatever way you wish. What way do you wish?

Imagine all the possibilities that are here right now. What will you do with them?

Progress is progress

Even when you're unable to do a lot, you still can do a little. A small effort advances life much more than no effort at all, and those small efforts add up.

When you're not able to get all the work done, don't waste your time pouting about it. Utilize your time to get some of the work done.

Progress is progress, whether it's small, large, fast or slow. Instead of making excuses or regrets, make progress.

This day affords you opportunity, so use it while you have it. When you're prevented from doing one thing, move on to something else.

Stride confidently, step by step, in the direction you've chosen, doing what you can with what you have. Interruptions, disappointments, distractions and delays will come, and through them all you can keep going.

With your effort and commitment, trade each small moment for a small victory. Moment by moment, day by day, allow achievement to steadily unfold through your actions.

Ralph S. Marston

Let life encourage you

Give yourself permission to feel great about right now. Give yourself the go-ahead to bubble with enthusiasm for what you can do with this day.

Remind yourself how good it is to look forward to the future. Realize all you can do today to make tomorrow worthy of eager anticipation.

Breeze on past any setbacks that have come your way. What's happened has happened, and the best thing you can do about it is to accelerate your pace toward a more positive place.

Applaud the challenges that come your way, for those challenges reveal your strength and increase it. Radiate true confidence as you transform the challenges into achievements.

Let life encourage you, whatever it may hold. With your attitude, your words and actions, share that encouragement with everyone you encounter.

In every joy, in every sadness, through the ups and the downs, decide you'll let life encourage you. Inject the energy of that encouragement into everything you do.

Actively involved

Don't wait in idleness for your life to go where you want it to go. Get out in front and lead it there.

Expect the best, hope for the best, and then take the next, crucial step. Spring into action, employ your resourcefulness and engage your creativity to make all those good things happen.

You deserve the best in life, but that doesn't mean anything is going to be given to you. You have the good fortune of being able to earn it.

You can define precisely what you seek, and visualize yourself making it happen. Then you can live that vision, and express it through your actions to make it real.

Patience is a virtue, but patience does not mean sluggishness. Get yourself actively involved in life on every level, and the more you do so, the better life gets.

Choose your direction with decisiveness, commitment, action, time, energy, and everything else you have. Get actively involved in leading your life, and your life will go right where you lead.

Stay in motion

When life is going your way, keep going. When life is not going your way, keep going.

Don't let yourself be stopped by the pain of failure. Don't let yourself be stopped by the complacency of success.

Stay in motion, and you can choose your direction. Stay in motion, or you'll get pushed around by forces outside your control.

It's not always easy to stay in motion, yet it is always the best choice. Persist, and nothing can keep you down for long.

Build value on top of your victories and build value on top of your defeats. Stay in motion, and everything is an opportunity.

Give yourself the advantage of a powerful and prolonged momentum. Stay in motion, and stay in positive control of the way your life unfolds.

Ralph S. Marston

Feel good about yourself

Sure, it's easy to feel sorry for yourself. Yet feeling good about yourself is just as easy, and a lot more empowering.

Whether you decide to feel sorry for yourself or good about yourself, you can come up with all kinds of reasons to support your decision. So make the more positive choice to feel good about yourself.

The way you feel is a choice, not a foregone conclusion. You can make the choice that serves you best, and being positive serves you better than being negative.

Feel good about yourself, and that good feeling will carry over into every part of your life. You'll improve interactions with others, the effectiveness of your efforts, your creativity, resourcefulness, energy level and many other things.

Feel good about yourself, your life, your situation, your expectations and possibilities. Feel good about your own life and you'll resonate with the goodness that's all around you.

Go ahead, let yourself feel good about yourself. And give powerful, positive value to everything you do.

Pinnacle of today

You are more capable today than yesterday, more capable than you've ever been. Whatever you may have expected of yourself in the past, you can expect even better things now.

Every day, your wisdom and experience grow. Every day you learn, you achieve, you solve problems, absorb new information and become more skilled at being you.

Your entire life has brought you to the pinnacle of today. Feel your strength, feel your capability, feel your love for what's most important to you, and put your strength to use in the service of all you treasure.

From the perspective of now, no moment in your life has been wasted. All your experiences have delivered you to this place where you can achieve great and meaningful things.

Seize this opportunity to fulfill the promise that has been gathering strength your whole life. You have reached the pinnacle of today, so let its value flow forth from your actions.

Raise your expectations to meet the reality of your potential. And do what you do best, in a way that's better than ever before.

Real, fulfilling life

Life gives to you what you give to life. The way you experience life depends on the way you choose to live it.

If you act according to your own greed, you will suffer from the greed of others. If you live with hatred you will be the recipient of hatred.

When you live out of a sense of authentic love, you will receive love from others. Live with true respect, and you will be truly respected.

You cannot possibly get the good things you do not wish to give. You cannot possibly avoid receiving in return whatever it is you offer to life.

A puzzle that is solved for you is really not any fun. A life that is lived for you is no life at all.

Make your own way, shoulder your own burdens, and give your very best in every moment. That is real, fulfilling life, and it is priceless.

— Ralph Marston
