If the bad stuff is getting to you too much, create more good stuff. Nothing can bring you down when you’re busy lifting life up...
Don’t fight the negativity, because that will just draw you in deeper. Instead, overwhelm negativity with positive substance...
Constantly complaining makes you more invested in whatever you are complaining about. Resist the temptation to complain, and find a positive response...
Let the negativity be, then let it go. Free yourself from its grip and with that freedom, move forward.
You don’t have to be naive to be positive. Though the negative things are still there, you can choose to focus all of your energy on creating new goodness...
No matter how difficult things are, there is always something good you can do. Lift up life, and put more of the power of positive living in your world...
Lift Your Life Up!!

"Road To Success"
From this moment, there is a path that leads toward victory and another path that leads toward defeat. Which path is your awareness focused upon?
Each pathway is equally valid, equally realistic, and equally accessible. Which path have you chosen to follow?
The particular circumstances of this moment don’t really matter that much. What matters is what you decide to do with what you have right now...
Know, without a doubt, that there is a very real path that goes from where you are now to where you would most like to be. Know it and you will surely see it...
Always, there is hope, for always you can take a step forward. Step by step, you can work your way to any place you choose...
Get yourself on the path that leads to victory, to accomplishment and fulfillment of your most deeply held purposes. That path is surely here right now, ready for you to take the next step...

"Experience"
Others can guide you, teach you, and encourage you. Yet what you truly know is whatever you experience for yourself...
When you understand and appreciate the true value of experience, then every experience indeed becomes valuable. The good times and the not-so-good times all bring with them the golden treasure of experience...
Be willing to live through whatever life sends your way, and you will grow stronger with each passing moment. Be thankful for the opportunity to experience whatever may be happening, and the experience you gain will serve you well...
You are more capable, more knowledgeable, more effective than you’ve ever been before. And with each new experience, that positive and valuable growth continues...
Delight each day in the experience of life. Treasure it, learn from it, live it and use every moment to reach ever higher...

"Are You Ready?"
If you’ve been waiting until you’re ready, the wait is over... You are ready...
You are ready, so go ahead and get started. You know enough, you have enough, you’re inspired and purposeful and creative enough to take the first step, now...
Though you have many questions, and maybe even some doubts, you are ready. Go ahead, grab the opportunity of this moment, and make your life come to life...
Achievement is never the result of figuring everything out in advance. Achievement comes when you start where you are and keep going...
Make more than mere plans, have more than just intentions, experience more than empty wishes. You are ready to follow where your passions lead and make life more amazing than it already is...
You are ready to take action. Now is the time and this is the place...

"A Masterpiece"
You become what you think and what you do. Your life is an empty canvas upon which you are continually painting your own special masterpiece...
Though you will have much guidance and inspiration, what you do with that guidance and with that inspiration is ultimately up to you. It is at once an awesome responsibility and a blessing of the most profound and unlimited proportions...
And today is when it happens. This is the place and the moment where it all comes together. Even as you ponder these words, the unique work of art that is your life is taking shape. What an immense opportunity it is to be you...
The clothes you wear, the car you drive, the title on your business card are relatively minor factors compared to the real, genuine person you’re capable of becoming. See your life in all the fullness of its grand perspective, and spend each moment perfecting the special masterpiece that you were born to live...

"Possibilities"
Sunlight drops its golden paint on the quiet surface of a mountain stream, and a new day is born. What a shame it would be to let this day pass without putting fresh goodness into it...
From rocky ledges to cool valleys, in the countryside and in cities across the globe, possibilities abound. Life is here to be lived, and now is the time to do it...
Like water swiftly flowing, the opportunities of this day will soon be nothing more than memories. Now is your one and only chance to make them positive, satisfying memories by making full use of the opportunities...
Now is your chance to make new value where none existed before. Now, when you are inspired to let go of the excuses and to cast off any thought of procrastination, is when you can act...
Though the challenges are great and the circumstances less than perfect, today’s possibilities beg you to seize them. To the extent you do, your life and your world will benefit...
This is your day to do what you can, and you can indeed do much, if you will. Say yes to life, to the possibilities that abound, and get going...

"Here And Now"
You don’t have to live extravagantly to live richly. You can find extraordinary richness and fulfillment even in the simple, ordinary things...
You don’t have to wait or hope for some big, impressive windfall before you can begin to fully enjoy life. You can experience immense enjoyment right where you are, with whatever you have...
Living a life that’s full and rich is more about your inner attitude than your outer situation. Richness is found not so much in what comes to you but rather in what you make of it all in each moment...
Don’t limit your experience and enjoyment of life’s richness by limiting your ideas of what it should be. Open yourself to discover and delight in the richness that’s in every moment...
There is so very much available to you right here, right now. Go ahead, let go of the need for this or for that, and live the richness that is always yours to live...
Let the experience of great richness come from your choice to live it. Your life is now, so fully and richly enjoy it here and now...

"Get Acquainted With Life"
Do something you’re not good at, and you’ll get better. Instead of excusing yourself because you don’t know how, challenge yourself to learn and to do...
Go someplace you’ve never been, and your eyes will be opened to new possibilities. Seeing life from a new place can make your overall perspective more valuable...
Get to know people you’ve never known before. They will give you ideas you’ve never considered before...
If you feel stuck, or bored, tired, dismayed or depleted, the answer is not to withdraw from life. Those feelings are urging you to re-introduce yourself to life...
You are capable of creating great new things and forging new connections, capable of learning, of going, of seeing, of taking action. And you won’t be fully satisfied unless you’re putting all you have into doing so...
Take a deep breath and feel the fresh possibilities of this day. Now, go forth, get reacquainted with the wonders of life, and make the most of all you have...

"Start Right Now"
Start right now to fulfill your best possibilities. Start right now to achieve the goals you’ve set for yourself. Those goals, those possibilities are too important to let them go stale. There is something you can do right now to move toward them. Get busy and do it. There is some initial action you can take. Get busy and take it...
What have you always told yourself you would do? Who is the person you have always wanted to become? What is the lifestyle you’ve always wished for? Wishing is not enough. Intention is not enough. At some point you must take action to achieve those things you truly desire. That point is right now...
Now is the time you have available to you. Now is your opportunity to act. Now is when your goals, your dreams, your ambitions begin to become a reality...
There’s no need to put off the fulfillment of you best possibilities for another moment. Start now, take action, keep going and experience the incomparable thrill of making your dreams a reality...

"No Better Time Then Now"
Now is golden, with great value available to be created. Direct your focus and your energy into what you can do with now...
Right now there are possibilities and resources you can tap into. Now, there is the opportunity to make things happen and to make a difference...
Don’t compromise the value of now by using it to obsess over past events that cannot be changed...
Don’t give up the chance to be effective right now by worrying about what might happen in the future...
This is the time you can use to take action. This is the time you can use to move your world in a positive direction...
This moment right now is worth whatever you wish to put into it. Yet if you fail to make use of now while it is here, it quickly becomes worthless and irretrievable to you...
Now is golden, so grab its value by taking positive, effective action. Now is yours, so live it well...
There is no better time than now...

"A Better World"
It may sometimes seem that the world is shallow and petty and focused only on meaningless, superficial concerns. Yet you can choose to live in a better world...
It may appear that there is an overwhelming amount of violence, despair and injustice in the world. Yet you can choose to live in a better world...
Look at the world in a positive light, and suddenly you’ve made it a better place. Act on the possibilities that you see, and you give real substance to your positive vision...
Imagine how the world would be if everyone became focused on the positive possibilities. By directing your own awareness toward those possibilities, and by acting on them, you make them more vibrant, more visible and more compelling...
By working to improve your own attitude and your own life, you become a living example for all the world to see. And a living example is hard to ignore...
The way a better world emerges is one life at a time. Start with your own life, and let the goodness quickly spread outward from you...
All the small things can come together to add up to something much greater of a contribution to helping to make a better world. It all starts with us. People. And as an artist for example, We can help to make a better world through Music & Entertainment.
You have to give back. It feels good to give back. No matter what the contribution is. In order to make things grow, you have to start by planting the seed...
A great Man [Mr. Beryl Wolk] once told me, We have to all work together to keep life evolving and growing. And one way you are able to do it is by Making a Better World through Entertainment & Music...

"Be Genuine"
You are worthy, deserving, intelligent, skillful and have unique value to offer. Even so, the world does not revolve around you...
There are a lot of other people in this world. The more considerate you are of those people, even the ones who don’t seem to deserve it, the better off you yourself will be...
You are worthy of the very best life has to offer. And one of the most empowering thoughts to keep in mind is that life does not owe anything to you...
Your life is filled with great possibilities. It is by acting with gratitude, humility and genuine thoughtfulness that you will fulfill the best of those possibilities...
At times, other people will anger you, frustrate you, lie to you and disappoint you. Love them anyway, for ultimately that is in your best interest...
It is easy to be understanding of those who agree with you, and immensely powerful to be understanding of those who don’t...
Live with understanding and genuine thoughtfulness, no matter what, and enjoy the rewards that come from making a real and positive difference...

"Learn From Your Actions"
You don’t have to sit around waiting for a moment of brilliance. Instead, spend your moments taking action, and allow the brilliance to eventually rise to the top...
Don’t spend a lot of time and effort agonizing over what strategy to use. Make enough attempts, and the best strategy will eventually become evident...
Often, to find out what works you have to do what doesn’t. Learn and prepare the best you can, then jump in and do...
Experience will teach you what nothing else can. Start accumulating that experience as soon as possible...
Instead of wondering about the best approach, find out. The sooner you start taking action, the sooner you’ll zero in on the most effective set of actions...
Get quickly beyond speculating about what works best in theory and find what actually does work in practice. Learn from action, and learn what really counts...

"Don't Live Your Life With Regret"
What can you begin to do right now that will have you looking back on this day with satisfaction instead of regret? What can you do today so at the end of the day you will feel you’ve done your best?
Satisfaction and regret do not just materialize out of thin air. They are the direct results of what you choose to do with your time...
Decide how you would prefer to feel at the end of the day, and live the day accordingly. If you wish to be satisfied with what you’ve done, now is the time to act in that direction...
You can create a day that you know has been well lived. No matter what things outside your influence may happen or fail to happen, you can experience the satisfaction of doing your best with it all...
It’s not that difficult to create a day you can be happy and proud and satisfied to have lived. It’s a matter of intention, and it’s based on what you do right now...

You can be free of your doubts, your worries, and the limiting assumptions that have held you back. Decide to make progress, and act on your decision...
You can handle the challenges and find a way to address each problem. See yourself doing it, and then do what you see...
You can discard the excuses and put an end to your hesitation. Remind yourself of the great value in what you can do, and get busy doing it...
Instead of slipping backwards, instead of just getting by, you can make progress today. Do yourself and everyone else a great big favor, and do what you know you can do...
The time, the energy and the resources are here now for you to use. Choose to use them now, and make some great new progress today...

"How You See The World"
The world you see is mightily affected by the person you are. The quickest and most effective way to live in a better world is to be a better you...
Your opinion of life exerts a strong influence on your experience of life. Change your opinion of life, and you immediately see a corresponding change in the way life unfolds...
Just because you think something is true doesn’t make it true. Yet from your own point of view, it might as well...
Your decisions and preferences depend heavily on your perspective. And those decisions and preferences play a major role in the way your life progresses...
What you think about life determines the way you live it. And you get to decide what you think.
See a world filled with goodness, with positive possibilities, with joy, love and fulfillment. See that world, and live to make it so...
It's all about how you see the world....

"Don't Assume"
Base your decisions on thought and perception rather than assumptions. Don’t get trapped by assuming what is no longer true...
Be careful not to use your assumptions as excuses for avoiding action. Question and challenge those assumptions, and focus on what you wish to accomplish...
The world changes with every moment. What you once assumed to be true may no longer be true, and may never have actually been true in the first place...
Look at the world in front of you with eyes free of judgment. Consider all the possibilities, especially those that seem particularly outrageous...
Instead of assuming that you can’t, feel the confidence that comes from knowing you can. Hiding behind every assumption there are new opportunities ready to be explored...
Let go of the assumptions that may be holding you back. And discover how very much you can do..
Perception is everything and nothing at the same time....

"Encourage More Understanding"
There are people who do not understand you. Be okay with that, and then work in a positive way to encourage more understanding...
There are things that will happen to set you back. Be okay with that, and be ready to quickly recover from the disappointments...
Life is not always fair. Be okay with that, find the beauty anyway, and do all you can to offer genuine compassion to those who suffer from unfairness...
This day may not turn out exactly the way you planned. Be okay with that, and make use of it to create new value anyway...
You may not like what has already happened, but there’s nothing you can do to change the past. Your best strategy is to let it be what it has been, to be okay with it, and to move toward the future you wish to create...
Invest your time and energy in new positive efforts where they will make a difference, not in bitterness about whatever has come before. Be okay with the way things are, and be in a position to make them much better...

"Life Is The Way You See It"
Do more than merely getting through this day. Jump into it fully with vigor and enthusiasm...
Do more than merely getting through your work. Find real joy in making a difference...
When the purpose behind each day is just to get it over with, that dismal purpose can begin to take over your whole life...
By contrast, when you put a little bit of joy and positive purpose into each moment, you get a whole lot of great and wonderful things filling your world...
It only takes a fraction of a second to change your whole life and your whole world for the better...
Are you ready to go beyond merely surviving and to fill each thought, each word, each action with the most magnificent possibilities of life?
Life is exactly the way you choose to see it. Wherever you may be, whatever you may be doing, you have the opportunity to immediately and completely make life truly great...
Open your eyes, look around, and awaken to all the best possibilities. Now is when you can live with all the richness you’re able to imagine...
Life is going to be a reflection of how you see it. How you choose to see it. How you choose to live it... There is so much great opportunity and possibility in this life, so choose to see it that way... Live each day with Open Eyes and with an open mind...

Open your eyes, look around, and awaken to all the best possibilities. Now is when you can live with all the richness you’re able to imagine...
Life is going to be a reflection of how you see it. How you choose to see it. How you choose to live it... There is so much great opportunity and possibility in this life, so choose to see it that way... Live each day with Open Eyes and with an open mind...
~ J Rag
"Build And Grow"
Whatever way this day is going, you can make it better. You have the power, the ability and the opportunity to do so...
If you find yourself in a good and useful situation, you can make it even better. When you encounter a difficult and troubling situation, you can make that better as well...
Accept the reality of what is. Then get busy making your own unique positive contribution using whatever you have to work with...
Look at the events and circumstances of life not as things to fight against or to attempt to grab. See them as opportunities to build and grow...
Be truly thankful for whatever comes your way. For within all of it, there is room for you to add as much real, meaningful value as you wish...
See the possibilities in every moment, and find ways to give your best to life. Always, you can make it better, and by continuing to do so, you make it great...

"Put In The Work"
Life works when you do. You cannot merely coast through life, so don’t waste your precious time trying...
Even if you were to have all the riches and luxuries you could imagine, real life demands real effort. Be ever willing to make an effort, to make a contribution, to make a difference...
You could choose to resent whatever you must do, and keep yourself miserable. Or you could be thankful for each opportunity to make an effort, and constantly renew your enthusiasm for living...
Effective effort is its own reward. And it creates many other rewards in the process...
There are those who foolishly avoid effort, avoid responsibility and avoid discipline. By avoiding the temporary discomfort of effort, they create the permanent pains of regret and dismay...
Today is an opportunity to do meaningful work, to make a difference for yourself and your world. Do the work, make the effort, and create the true richness that you deserve...

"Acting Like It"
A great cure for self defeating thoughts is empowering behavior. When you’re feeling down and you try to think your way out of it, often you’ll end up thinking your way even deeper into despair. So stop thinking about it. Get up and do something positive...
Challenge yourself to take action that will make a difference. Moving with real action in a positive, productive way will leave those negative thoughts with very little chance to survive...
A great way to occupy your mind with positive thoughts is to fill your time with positive actions. If you’re not in the mood to help yourself, then get busy helping someone else. That will truly boost your energy level and empower you to do great things. Experience the enormous positive power that exists in a kind, sincere gesture...
Are you truly serious about becoming more positive? Then act like it. Your body will do what you tell it to do. So tell it to get busy, and watch those negative thoughts melt quickly away...

"Finding Your Way"
Don’t complain that something is blocking your path. Find a way over it, under it, around it or through...
Just because the work is difficult doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Find a way, and you’ll absolutely make it happen...
You can’t expect to be told exactly what steps will get you where you want to go. Find joy and sweet fulfillment in the fact that it’s up to you to find your own way...
Don’t waste your time crafting elaborate excuses or seeking the pity of others. Invest your precious time in finding a way forward...
You might think it would be nice if someone else were to cater to your every need and whim. Yet what your spirit truly desires is to find its own way, and deep inside you know that...
You were born to find your own unique way through life’s richness of possibilities. Your treasures await, so get going right now...
It's all about finding your way....

"Believe In Yourself"
Think that you can....
The world is changed by people who think they can... What do you think you can do?
Just thinking you can succeed does not make you successful. Yet if you don’t think you can, you won’t...
Decide that you can do it. Then set about to prove yourself right...
Many may doubt you, but you never have to focus on those doubts. Focus instead on your own confidence...
Think you can, and then act on that thought. You will make progress, and that is good...
Think you can, and push yourself to find a way. Think you can, and do what you think you can...

"Enjoy The Moment"
In every situation, savor the moment. Whatever you must do, savor the task...
Don’t rush ahead in your mind to whatever is next. Give all of yourself to whatever is here and now.

After all, you’re there, you’re in the moment you’re in, you’re doing whatever you’re doing, so do it with all you have. Fighting against it will not serve any positive purpose...

"Don't Put It Off"
At the beginning of each day, think of something you must do, that you really don’t want to do. Then, with a positive and powerful sense of control over your own life, go ahead and get that undesirable job done...
Do the difficult, disagreeable things first. You will make all the other things a whole lot more enjoyable...
Instead of procrastinating, and avoiding, and having something unpleasant constantly hanging over you, get it out of the way. Free yourself to live the rest of your day with the enjoyment and satisfaction of having it done...
Do the hard stuff first, and it will strengthen you, give you confidence and a very real sense of being firmly in control. Do the challenging jobs first, and enjoy the value that comes from working through the challenges...
Rather than dreading what you must do, get it done, and get it out of the way. Put your time and energy into making progress and not into making excuses...
Each day, you have the opportunity to do yourself a big favor. Get the difficult stuff done early, and enjoy all the great rewards you earn by doing so...
Don't put it off.. Get it out of the way... You'll feel better knowing that you completed the task...

"Remain Persistent"
The most valuable experiences are often the most difficult experiences. The biggest challenges bring out the best in you, and compel you to make your best even better...
Difficult situations are not much fun... Yet by working your way through them, you create great strength and value...
Even when your hard work is not fully appreciated or immediately rewarded, it still brings important value to your life. The experience of dealing with challenge can produce a lifetime of beneficial dividends...
When you know you have done it in the past, you also know you can do it again. That is the essence of true confidence...
The difficult experiences give you the opportunity to practice persistence. And persistence is a quality that is always in demand...
Though your efforts may not pay off immediately, they will pay off. Persist, and know that you are growing stronger and stronger...
Always give your best effort. Remain consistent and Remain Persistent...

"Be Consistent And Persistent"
Make sure you always put forward the best effort... Always remain persistent and Consistent...
If you’re disappointed by the results of your first attempt, that’s no reason to quit. On the contrary, that’s a reason to learn from what you’ve done and make a second attempt...
If you’ve made that second attempt, and a third and fourth and fifth, and still don’t have it right, keep going. Though you may not immediately see it, you’re making progress...
If nothing else, you’re learning what doesn’t work. And, you’re reinforcing the powerful habit of persistence...
What you consistently and persistently do, you soon will do very well. Keep plugging away, and as you do, your effectiveness increases...
The achievement you seek comes from consistent, persistent effort. Keep going, keep learning, keep making improvements, one effort at a time...
Let go of the fantasy of being instantly successful, and choose instead to be reliably successful...
With consistent, persistent effort you will find a workable path to whatever achievement you choose to create...

"Remember The Little Things"
It only takes a minute or two for you to make a little progress. And a little progress can put you solidly on the road to a lot more...

"Choose Your Time"
You can always live the life you choose. Because you can always choose, in each and every moment, how to be...
Sure, life in this world sends all sorts of seemingly random and often disturbing occurrences your way. Yet the choice of how to think and feel about them, and what to do with them, is yours...
It is through the use of that choice that your life is fashioned. From the perspective you select comes the world you experience, in this hour, this month, this decade, this lifetime...
Whatever comes, will come and go. What you choose to do with it, is what makes your life the way it is...
It is never too late, and you are never too far off track to live the way you wish to live. For in this very next moment, no matter what it may contain, you can choose how, and why, to proceed...
You never have to resign yourself to less than the best. For now is always your time to choose...

"Make Use Of Your Time"
Your time is one of the most precious things you have, and no hour, no moment, no day can ever be replaced. Keep that in mind when choosing how to spend your time...
The way you use your time, now, in the next hour, in the next few days, determines the way your life unfolds. It is a great opportunity that keeps on presenting itself to you...
Over and over again, you have the chance to make wise and productive use of your time. You have the chance to exchange the fleeting moments for lasting value...
Every now and then, step back and look at what you’re doing. Remind yourself to make the most of the great opportunity you have in each moment...
Tomorrow can be markedly improved as a result of the way you use your time today. By using your time wisely, you can transform the richness of this moment into a richness that continues in your life for years to come...
You have just as much time today as the most accomplished person alive. Now is your time to make it count...
