Raising a BAR

"Vision, it reaches beyond the thing that is, into the conception of what can be. Imagination gives you the picture. Vision gives you the impulse to make the picture your own." - Robert Collier

When you dream at night, there is nothing else to interfere with the imagination. In some instances, those dreams can be remembered during the waking hours. Once in a while they are remembered with full clarity and many other times only bits and pieces which tend to fade quickly.

Dreams are many time an imagined future or expectation of greater things.

Those dreams are an undefined mound of wet clay, waiting for you to form it. As you remember and begin to concentrate on those dreams remembering the details, your imagination mold the dream. This process will mold the clay into something only you can imagine.

The resulting form may change from what you first dreamt, but it will become clear for your life.

As the dream becomes more real, apply your awakened vision in order to move you towards realizing the dream as a tangible part of your life. It prods you to walk through an open door on a journey of movement; a journey of great things.

- Allow yourself to Believe in big dreams.
- Allow yourself to Act with a vision towards it.
- Allow yourself to Realize a great life achieved.

Go beyond the current and forward towards a future that has so much opportunity. A large life is out there waiting for you.

Raising the Bar

“One of the most important phases of maturing is that of growth from self-centering to an understanding relationship to others. A person is not mature until he has both an ability and a willingness to see himself as one among others and to do unto those others as he would have them do to him.” - Walter Scott

One key to living a positive and fruitful life is to move away from being self-centered. When you understand that your life is and has impact amongst everything and everyone around you, then you will begin to live a more enjoyable and fulfilling life.

There is a tendency when living a self-centered life to blame every and anything else for our own woes. It is always someone else or company or object that is the cause. The blame game starts to become very trendy in your life. The current object of blame in society becomes your object of blame. It becomes something to accuse of all your troubles.

So it can be an odd feeling to fully grasp the idea when you step out of a "me only" life into acceptance of your part in a bigger world. It is a big step when you end up taking responsibility for your own actions and woes. Everything around you has an impact and influences your life. But the key is how you choose to react to all of the stuff which will and does happen to us.

Once you have taken the path of responsibility and accepted to be in charge of your own attitude, only then will life begin to turn for the better. Once you do, stay committed to that new life. Be the better person.

Be the one that raises the BAR for others.

B-elief A-ction R-ealization of expectation in your life.

"The present is the ever moving shadow that divides yesterday from tomorrow. In that lies hope." -Frank Lloyd Wright

Today was one of those days where rocks and boulders kept getting in the way. The rain fell hard at times, the doors all seemed to remain locked. Nothing was going particularly right as circumstance was having a play day with everything you do.

It can become very frustrating and you may feel like throwing your hands up and loudly screaming. But when it does, it really is the time to raise the bar.

You need to keep believing in what you are doing.
You need to keep acting upon the belief by moving forward.
You need to keep realizing that it will get better.

But why do that? Why not just give up? Why not lay down and be run over? Because you are greater then the situation at hand. You have a huge ability to get beyond the things that stand in your way. You are going to have a great life.

Raise the B.A.R. when life wants you to lay it down. Push through and do what you can to keep moving forward. Circumstance will eventually become a mere bump on the road.
