Inspiration Sunday, January 18

Good Morning from Camp Sunnyside!!  What are you thankful for today??  I'm thankful for All the Inspiration at our fingertips!!  Ever look at Instagram and search Inspiration?  There are millions of Inspirational pictures for Fitness goal, quotes for Business goals and quotes for everyday Life. While recovering from knee surgery, I would look at these posts to stay motivated to heal and get back to the gym. It worked for me.  Also during this time,  I found a great blog for business inspiration.  It says to always go for your dreams or you'll be making someone else's dreams come true...what a true statement!!  While doing all of this I realized, as a society, we don't really have many actual inspirational people. Tony Robbins is an exception.  Who else inspires you??  I read. I search. And devour information on inspiring people for me, whether it's fitness, business or every day life.  And do you know what I've learned?? They have gone through some rough times too!! No one is Exempt from the rough patches of life.  There are people who look like they never had a bad day in their lives...Wrong!!  We All have bad stuff to go through.  Another thing I learned reading about them, they didn't allow those rough patches make them into a victim and throw a pity party every day.  They got up, got out of their comfort zone and stepped forward!!  Then they reached back to inspire others!! That Is the true meaning of life... Go through tough times, then reach back to inspire others when it's their turn.  I say, Don't be me, Learn from me, then go and Become better than me, then reach back and Inspire someone to be better than you!!  May your day be filled with people who Inspire you and an opportunity to Inspire someone else!!  Happy Inspiration Sunday!!   

Be Fearless Saturday, January 17

Good Morning Campers!! What are you thankful for today?? I'm thankful that I practice being Fearless!! And yes I said practice!  That's what it takes.  Nobody is naturally fearless, it's an acquired skill.  We all have fears. At some point, we allow those fears to stop us. It takes courage to step out of our comfort zone and try something we're scared of. And that's OK, it's normal and natural.  It's when we allow the fear to completely Stop us from something is when it's a problem. "Do Not Be Afraid" is in the Bible 365 times as a daily reminder!! We've all had a fear of something. Whether it's fear of failure or success. Fear to love or fear of getting hurt. And even fear of the unknown and unfamiliar.  It's OK,  be scared and Do It Anyway!! Step Out and practice Being Fearless!! And then reach back and Encourage someone else to do the same!! May your Day be filled with situations for you to Be Fearless!! Happy Saturday!!
