“Personal Renewal”

The process of making me better than I am now

because of who I will to be later

© Lee Wise

First Thoughts…

This blog post is for encouragement and intentionally succinct.  The topic of personal renewal fills books and occupies the hearts of many.

Call yourself an attraction marketer, a work at home mom, just a dad beginning his day who stopped by the blog, a faith based individual opening his or her copy of what is viewed as a sacred writing, a full or part-time blogger, or a marketing funnel guru who stumbled by for a leisurely albeit an unplanned visit…

Personal renewal is necessary.

View my thoughts below as prompts for your thoughts, your ideas, and your actions for today — or tomorrow.

Lee’s Reflections…

• Renewal is necessary.
• I would say that renewal is “difficult with the discipline to do so.”
• Renewal should take on the personality, goals, aspirations and intended purposes of each unique individual. In other words, it is highly personal.  I may copy someone else for my benefit because I choose to do so but copying without allowing myself to adapt and “make it mine,” holds the potential of not being so good — at least in my opinion.
• Renewal is a process.  I do great, fair, bottom out and land somewhere in between according to the times and seasons of my life.

Questions For Growth…

• Where should my thoughts on personal renewal lead me right now? Where should they lead me today?
• Where do I find myself on the “personal renewal scale” — great, a bit stuck, in the middle somewhere, or ready to take cover in a single bound for fear of low flying emotional bird droppings on my already tender head, lol!?  Wherever “where do I find myself” is, what do I believe my next steps should be?
• How have I achieved personal renewal in the past?  Any insights I should share?  Patterns I should bring back to the surface of my life?

All The Very Best To You!

May you and those you love and care for enjoy a meaningful week!

Lee

Motivational Thoughts On Self Growth

We understand that in our personal lives, in our busineses, in our homes, or even in our our volunteer efforts, the idea of maintaining a stance of personal self growth is important.

My purpose here is not to share 10 great ideas for personal self growth that you don’t know already — although sharing 10 ideas on the subject would be a most worthwhile effort. My purpose is purely motivational.

As you have no doubt guessed, I am challenged in my own self development to keep on creating brief, meaningful writings in the self development arena of life: with a special interest in the art of creating quotes.

With that in mind, here’s a quote for your consideration today:

Self Growth

Striving to manage well who I am

for the purpose of becoming

well more of who I desire to be.

© Lee Wise

Continuing The Thought Process…

Regarding the quote above:

• What aspects come to mind when you think of “managing well” our self growth?
• Could the quote be used in a training session, posted on your blog, sent in an email or shared in any other manner that would fit your purposes?
• In my first question above, if two or three thoughts came to mind relative to “managing well” your own self growth and development, would it be good for you to respond in any way to the ideas that came to mind?
• If you were to journal your responses to the images, ideas, memories or stories that came to mind as a result of reflecting on my brief quote, what might you enter in your journal today?
• Reflecting on the idea of self growth during your younger years, what part did the concept play — or not play — and should you happen to be a parent does that say anything to you today?

As Special Thanks For Reading This Post — 50% Off

You probably realize that I have created an ebook — basically, a self-development ebook — for folks on the business side of life so-to-speak. It’s called Stay Motivated! An Inspirational Handbook For Attraction Marketers. You can click that for more information.

At any rate, if in glancing around you like what you are seeing in terms of my writing, I would like to make you a special offer. Should you visit the link and decide you may like the book, as a bonus for reading this post, I would like to offer you a 50% Discount off the price of my book. How long will this be offered? Honestly I am not sure, lol! For sure for another 10 days. Beyond that, no guarantees.

Is there a “catch” in this? Nope, just an offer. I am highly biased and feel that many people could benefit from the contents of the book and I want to “get the word out” as they say. Well, one catch I guess: just don’t send out the email and address for people who have not read my post! Get them here first!!

Just send me an email here: writeleewise(at)gmail(dot)com. No, this is not an autoresponder and it does not put you on a list! In the subject line put: “Give me the discount!” I will then return some instructions and a code to you for your use to receive the discount.

Quotes On Living The Good Life

by Lee Wise

Personally speaking, I gravitate in the direction of well crafted thoughts which I would characterize as…

• Brief,
• Said well,
• And meaningful.

In addition, I run toward the challenge of creating such writings with great delight!  And if you really want to know what brings even more delight to my heart, then all you would need to do would be to sense my inner response when I feel that this combination takes place in another person:

• They read what I write,
• Pause just long enough for some measure of a positive “Ah, ha” or “Yes!” moment to take place,
• And complete their response with a more definite, “Yes. That’s true.  I like that!”

Now that sequence could be called the proverbial icing on the cake for this guy!

My Hope

It would be “totally cool” should you, the reader, find yourself engaged in any level of appreciation as a result of taking in my brief original quotes on “living the good life” found below.

How To Read

Read any way you like!  However, should you find the time, may I suggest that you turn the reading of any of these brief ideas into your own personal growth time in some way?

• Journal.
• Reflect.
• Design action steps.
• Place in a calendar to review.
• Anything, in any way that helps.

A “P.S.” Of sorts…

Should you decide to share any of my inspirational quotes, please include the copyright.  Thanks much!

Hey, Lee, How About This?

Do you have a value or thought you might like to see me create a brief statement on?  Yes, I enjoy doing that type of thing.  No guarantees, of course, but you are welcome to reply and give me an idea.

An example?  Sure.

“Hey, Lee, I really would like to see what you might say about being an encourager in our speaking patterns.  I see that as so needy in today’s world.”

Honestly, this is a bit of a gamble for me, but why not?  It’s a challenge I may like to try.  All I can do is blow it, right, lol!

Digging Deeper

Did any of the quotes capture your attention in a positive way?

After reading through the quotes, could you see yourself returning to any of them or journaling any of your responses?

May these brief words of mine prove to be a blessing for you and those you love in one way or another.

Encouragers…

All Of Us Need Them.

All Of Us Need To Be Them.

In this brief video I share with you an extremely simple quote on being an encoruager.

It does not matter what sphere of influence we find ourselves traversing in at the moment – attraction marketing, self development, or simply living in the best way we can for the best reasons – the importance of encouragement can hardly be underestimated.

• Relax.
• Look.
• Listen
• Enjoy.
• And… respond below if you like!

Digging A Bit Deeper…

As you think about the subject of being an encourager — or the place encouragers have played in your own life —

• What aspects of being being encouraged have been most beneficial to you?
• You may be a trainer of others in a business or an educational setting of some sort.  Should you need to inspire those under your care regarding the importance of being an encourager to others, what would share?
• Any insights you should share or record for yourself while thinking on this topic?
• Gratefulness and encouragement go hand in hand, obviously.  Listening to your heart right now… does that comment say anything to you?  (It may or may not, lol.  I just thought it was an appropriate question! The question is a “no guilter.”)

Now Go Ahead… And Share!

Please share this post with others if it has been a positive influence for you in any way!

I Will Take Control Of My Mind

I tend to read books slow at times…

• Reflecting
• Learning
• Taking Notes
• Applying

And, lately, I’ve been returning to Napoleon Hill’s Keys To Positive Thinking: 10 Steps To Health, Wealth and Success by Napoleion Hill and MichaelJ. Ritt. Jr.

And I’d like to share with my readers this “creed” from the book that I have totally enjoyed. Naturally, we need to adjust things to our own frame of mind, belief systems, etc., but I am sure you may quickly find your own applications.  Of course, I may help in that process with a few questions

Here’s what I would term the affirmation from the book:

• I believe my mind is my own.
• I believe I can take possession of my own mind.
• I believe I can direct and control my emotions, moods, feelings, intellect, tendencies, attitudes, passions, and habits with the intention of developing a positive mental attitude.
• I will develop a positive mental attitude.

Obviously, taking charge of our own minds for our own reasons — whether for attraction marketing, home business, family development, personal growth, or any other area of our personal or professional lives — is crucial.

Making It Yours

As I mention above, you may not be in agreement with all of the thoughts, word choices, etc. but I would imagine you could design your own. You might ask yourself:

• What wording would I change?
• How could I say it in my way, from my heart, to use for my purposes?

And, then, personally may want to decide how you could bring whatever you create to the forefront of your life in a way that would be meaningful to you?

• Make a quote and post somewhere.
• How about a “sticky note” with that computer program you have?
• Possibly in your journal?
• Etc.

Yep, Go Ahead and Share!

And your thoughts or quick tips are?

Did you find this helpful, inspiring or simply a good reminder?  If so, why not share it?  Bring someone else in one the blessing.

All the best to you and those you love this day!

Quotes For Living An Exceptional Life
© Lee Wise All rights reserved

– Purpose –

“A purpose yet to be discovered may mean the expression of
an even more beautiful life yet to be revealed”

– On Leaving A Legacy --

“Legacy — the tangible expressions of the values I choose to
live and love during my short stay on earth.”

– On The Value Of Becoming –

“May I rest secure in who I am but never rest in who I can
become.”

– On Resting On The Inside –

“To rest assured only comes when the rest is deserved from
the inside out.”

– Encouragement –

“To influence by encouragement is to influence by the power
of caring wrapped in the brilliance of understanding.”

-- On Reflection –

“In reflecting on the best I avoid the worst about
reflecting.”

~*~*~*~* Good Questions For Great Living ~*~*~*~*

I suggest that you pause long enough to think through the
following questions. Should you be a person who journals,
you may want to record several of your responses.

1. Am I resting for all the right reasons or hardly resting
for many of the wrong ones?

2. In my review of the quotations I just read, what do I
hear my heart saying? Am I blocking anything that *should*
be heard?

3. Reviewing my world at this time, who comes to mind when I
think of someone I should influence by using the power of
encouragement.

4. Should any of the quotes be placed in my day planner for
further reflection?

5. Am I becoming all I can be at this time in my life or
allowing who I could become to be smothered in a sea of all
the things I think I need to do instead of those I really
should be doing?

6. Do I need to reflect on what “purpose” means for me at
this stage in my life?

7. Could I — or should I — be more purpose directed than I
have been in recent days? If I thought about why that might
be so, does that tell me anything I need to know at the
moment?

8. What type of legacy do I desire to leave? Why?

A bit on the unusual side for me on a post, I just sat down, began to write, and this is what came out in the process.  Enjoy!

On Maintaining Hope In Business and in the Business Of Life

You,

Your team,

Or those around you will struggle with maintaing hope at times.

Most of us do in my opinion.

While there may exist many formulas for regaining hope, my thoughts today centered around not so much of a formula but rather a simple observation.

On Maintaining Hope…

Hope is maintained by an ongoing process

of realigning thoughts and actions with faith based intentions.

©Lee Wise

I take stock of who I am on the inside.

And if hope is lacking for whatever the reason, I ask a simple question:

“What is truth here?”

And then: “Will truth reign?”

I may be down, disappointed and not at all ready to move forward.  But in seeing what I could do based on where I believe it is important for me to be in the next steps of my journey, I…

• Realign my thoughts with where I want to head.
• Establish the validity of the goal.
• Assess what I can do as opposed to being overwhelmed with what I feel I can’t do.
• And I decide to take some action that truly assists me in the process.

That action could be actually doing something or deciding to not do anything because I am proverbially speaking, “Shot.”

But I do it.  And somewhere in the process a measure of hope returns or is maintained to some degree.

Maybe nothing fancy, life changing or what some might call dramatic…

But just enough to keep me moving forward.

Speaking Of Encouragement

Thinking about a variety of issues today, I thought about the topic of encouragement and wrote the quote talked about in the video below.

Family.  Business.  Home.  Friendship.  Attraction Marketing.  You name it: when it comes to our ongoing need to give and receive encouragement, there can be no doubt.

Enjoy the video.  It is under two minutes!

Digging Deeper

• Nothing new, strange or different: but in listening to the video, did any ideas come to mind?  Ideas to share, develop or hold on to for later?
• What about “Who?”  Did any name, organization for effort cross your mind that could quite possibly be paid attention to?
• Should you happen to be leading a team of any sort, are they in need of encouragement that you could give or bring in some how?
• Anything else?  And you know what the “anything else” might be.
