I have one t-shirt I really love to wear. It fit me well, the fabric is nice and it have a message that help me check the mindset of people I meet.
Its a nice regular gray cotton t-shirt. On the chest white letters are making out the sentence:
I got out of bed for this?
Besides that its really nice to wear I really like how people look in their face when the read the text. The reactions are very different and I believe they tell lot about the mind set of the persons I meet.
The grumpy ones.
Some people get really offended when reading my t-shirt text. Like they choose to believe that I would rather be home in bed that be there with them now. Some even say things like. “Someone is in a bad mood today” and “Why are you here if you don’t want to.”
The thing is that I’m very seldom in a bad mood and I almost never go places I don’t want to be. And if either should happen I certainly would not wear that t-shirt.
The puzzled ones.
That’s often people who know me but still not get it. They would know me well enough to know that I would never plaster a negative message on my chest and still they can´t yet figure out what my idea of this t-shit was.
The ones who get life.
“Yeah!! Of course you did”, was the reaction of the teacher I had on a coaching seminar first time I was wearing the t-shirt. I bought it some days before with the purpose of showing people how much I enjoy what I do.
If you meet me and I’m wearing that t-shirt you know that what I’m doing is something that I like to do so much that I got out of bed for it.
When I wake up in the morning first thing in my mind is all the great things in my life that I want to get out of bed to experience.
Wearing that t-shirt give me a chance to tell the grumpy ones. “Yes - I AM here. That mean that I DID get out of bed to come here. Where we are now and what we do now is what motivated me to jump out of bed this morning.”
It gives me a chance to ask people what motivates them to get out of bed in the morning and that is often interesting. Not every one are aware that they are actually motivated to get out of bed and for some it is only negative motivation like not loosing the job.
Do you have positive motivation to get out of your bed every morning?
You are now about to discover how great you are and how you can easily make your life better. For many years people have been writing about how you can improve yourself and often with how you have to work hard to improve yourself.”Just work and with focus on fixing whats wrong in your life and you will get a better life” This might be true and you might get a slightly better life by focusing on what is wrong. Sad news is that this is not a way that will ensure a better life for you!
Good news on the other hand is that there are better and much easier ways to make your life great or maybe even amazing if you dare to go for it. Creating a great life is not about improving yourself. If you are just a normal regular person, you are great! We are all great or at least we have some greatness in us. We just have to find it and let it out. This goes against most of what many of us have learned all our lives. We have been taught to look for our faults in order to fix them. Doing that will just create a person with a lot of slightly improved faults.
To become truly great you have to find you greatness within and make it even greater. In this article I will show you 3 easy steps that will help you find the way to greatness
Step 1: Self discovery
Figure out who you are and how your life is right now. Write down exactly what is in your life now. Watch out not to fall in and write what is not. Be objective and simply describe how you life is. How old are you, what is your job, how are you finances, are you married or in a relationship, where do you live, what education do you have and so on. Read it over once more and grade you life on a scale of 1-10. How do you feel your life is now? You might want to take an even deeper look at your life. For that you can use a tool like ClarityWheel, a great online tool helping you get a clear view of your life.
Step 2: How do you want your life to be?
Next step is to lean back and imagine the “Perfect 10 Life” How would you life be if everything is perfect? As with describing you current life write you dream life as objectively as you can. Write exactly how it would be.
Step 3: What can you do today to come closer to your dream life?
This step is where you take action. No matter how far away from you current life your “Perfect 10 Life” might seem to be take one step towards it every day. Before you go to bed every day read over your “Perfect 10 Life” and decided what you want to do the next day to get one step closer to your “Perfect 10 life”. It doesn’t matter if it will be a little or a big step. If you make sure that you every day make your life better and every day discover some of your greatness you will create yourself a great life!
In all the ongoing trouble around the world I thing it is time to keep focus on what is still good in life.
For that I have made a group on facebook called DOOMS DAY is NOT near
I had a great experience last week.
I was at the Nordic masters championship in swimming watching all the meet how people of all ages had great fun competing against each other and themselves.
At the party after the meet a woman came to me. Last time she was in Iceland for the same meet 5 years ago she was a young woman of only 80 years of age and danced all night. Now she talked about how nice it was to see me and how much fun it was to dance with me last time we met.
Then she told me that she was sad that we couldnt dance. I looked her and told her that there was both dancefloor and a band. I couldnt see what was keeping us from taking a dance. Her answer was that years had taken its tow and now she could barely walk.
I looked her and said:” I didnt ask you to take a walk with me - I asked you to dance with me. Dancing and walking is not the same”
After a few seconds of thought she smiled came with me to the dancefloor.
THAT is attitude to life: I can barely walk - but I can dance.
Maybe this attitude to life in her family that helped her gran daughter win and olympic medal in swimming this summer. First olympic swimming medal for Denmark in 20 years!
