To Serve well

Serving with Excellence for a Life of Excellence

November 19, 2019

Amplify the YES: Shake off what doesn’t build you up (the best you can)

AMPLIFY – Make larger, greater, stronger, extend, expand, increase…

Who could handle some AMPLIFICATION right now?

Expand my wisdom? Yes please!

Develop stronger patience? Why yes, I think I will!

Increase my energy? Heck yes! I would love that!

We can all use this message. We all need a reminder to AMPLIFY the good. We need to remember to manifest the positive, to essentially bring on the power and the good – as in truly amazing. I fully believe we have all been given the strength and gifts we need, be it through our own or from other people that have been placed in our paths.

I was with a friend recently, sharing the outcome of how I felt a serious conversation was going to play out. I felt I was being realistic with my not-so-positive response. She quickly reminded me not to put that negativity out into the universe, and instead that I should expect it would go well. I have to say, I still think I’m more than likely right, but so is she! I need to amplify the potential positive here. Easier said than done, right?

This week I am going to do my best to focus in just that way. At the same time “shake off” anything that doesn’t build up. What, or who, builds you up? Makes you have a spring in your step? Brings you energy? Flat out makes you the best version of yourself?

On the flip side, what brings you down? How can you stop or reduce that influence? What boundaries do you need to put in place to protect yourself? All important questions.

My great desire is that you will be built up; that you will close 2019 amplified. I hope you bring on the power of your best self and do everything you can to reduce the friction of what doesn’t. In fact, I’m praying for that right now as I write this. Have a tremendous week.

    Something I need to personally work on. I do tend to worry and think things won’t turn out in a positive way.
    It’s not an easy task to put myself in a positive light but I’m continually working on that.
