We all play so many different roles. A parent, child; a sister, brother; an employee, employer; a Christian, Muslim, Rastafari; an executive, a leader; a woman, a man – the list goes on. Often when someone asks “Who are you” we answer by saying where we work, what we do, who we are married to, how many children we have. Do those things define who we are? At times we are so consumed with our roles and the expectations of others that we forget who we are.
Today let’s be motivated to asking ourselves “Who am I” and finding the true answer. A little motivation is all we need!
Three square meals and two snacks a day. 2000 calories. Carbs, protein, fruits and vegetables. How much do you feed your stomachs per day? How much do you feed your spirit? Our physical needs are always apparent – food, water, clothes and shelter – at the minimum. As spiritual beings, we must remember to take care of spiritual needs. Keep in touch with the universe, a higher power, the essence in us that we can feel but can’t see.
Today let’s be motivated to feeding our spirits as well as our stomachs. A little motivation is all we need!
Blessings are available to everyone. The universe does not put a ration on how much blessings can go around. The Creator doesn’t say “I’ve already blessed enough people, so sorry, your blessings will have to wait.” Sometimes when we see blessings pouring down on others we look at our own lives and become discouraged. We think if someone has it all, then there won’t be anything left for us. The truth is that the Most High wants to bless you just as much as the other person. But you must live in expectation of your blessings.

Customer service experts tell us to greet our customers with a smile, and smile even when we answer the phone – that the person on the other end can feel it. Don’t limit yourself to smiling for customers only. Smile at your children, smile at your spouse, smile at your co-workers, smile at yourself, smile at everyone. A smile has a way of relieving uneasiness and conveying warmth. It brings a special energy and compassion to everything we say. And smiles are contagious! When we smile at someone they tend to smile too.
