In this, our last episode of the series, we wrap up the Daily 4 + 4 by sharing the secret to living a positive and purposeful life.
Thank you for listening. I wish you all the best and hope you start each day with a heart filled with gratitude, positivity, courage and commitment. And may you spend every day laughing, learning, loving and giving love and support in the service of others.

In this the second to last episode of the Positive Pods series, I distill down to the core essence what the Daily 4 is—and what living your purposeful and positive life—is all about.
Starting your day with a heart of Gratitude; filling your mind body and soul with a positive Attitude; having the Courage to pursue your dreams; and maintaining the daily Commitment to see your dreams come true.
But the daily 4 is just one half of the circle, the other half is laughing, learning, loving and giving....every single day!
If you truly believe....if you make the daily 4 a core part of your life...if you seek out many moments to laugh, to learn, to love and to give love in the service of others....if you do these things every day... I know you will live each day in a positive way...you will achieve all that you heart desires...you will live a meaningful...a purposeful life.
And, isn’t that what we all want out of life?
God Bless!
Do you know that amazing inspired feeling you get when you are doing what you love in the service of others? That is the spirit expressing your life’s purpose.
How do we live in spirit?
How do we live our purpose?
Here’s a hint... the core 4 with an abundance of love...
Let’s discuss...
When you think of “work” what comes to mind?
Why are you working?
For whom are you working?
What if you were working to make other people’s lives better?
What if your work mattered to the world, to society, to future generations?
What if I told you it did...your work matters...you matter!
Every one of us has God-given talents...gifts that are meant for sharing with others.
And it is our job, our purpose in life, to use them for the greater good of all.
“Whatever you do, do it with all of your heart, as if you are working for the Lord, and not human masters.” Colossians 3:23
How long does it take to create a new habit?
How can we convert our commitment into daily habits?
What does the Daily 4 have to do with achieving our goals and living out our life’s dream?
Well, let’s dive in and find out...
Courage = Faith over Fear
In episode #35, we look at Courage, the third in our Daily 4, and how it helps us break through our fears and move closer to our life’s goals; and the critical role courage plays in living a positive and purposeful life.
What are you afraid of? What is holding you back from achieving your life’s goals? What is preventing you from doing what you want to do to live a more positive and purposeful life.
And what courageous actions are you going to take today and this week to move you closer to your life’s goals?

Building on our last episode where we talked about Gratitude, this episode is all about Attitude. Having a positive attitude comes from having a grateful heart and a thankful spirit.
A positive attitude is about having faith and believing everything will work out fo the best.
Although I had a wealth of enthusiam naturally flowing through me from an early age, I learned at the age of 10 the amazing power of a positive attitude. I learned this from Walter Payton, a NFL Hall of Fame running back and in my opinion the greatest running back of all time.
I hope today’s episode inspires you to pursue a positive mindset, to start your day with gratitude, to truly live each day... to laugh heartedly, to learn, love and give love.

What do you take for granted?
What do you you focus on? is it what you don’t have yet, is it the “next thing”?

Are you grateful for your health?

Today’s episode is about the first of our Daily 4: Gratitude.
Gratitude is the foundation of everything good in your life
Gratitude is the foundation for a positive, purposeful life.
So, today and everyday, I give thanks to you, for all of us, and the amazing things we can do when we laugh, learn, love and give to others. For the opportunities we have in front of us... I am grateful.
We each have very unique, God-Given talents. These talents are gifts meant for sharing.
In this week’s podcast, we’ll talk about how you can not only better understand your unique talents but also how you can use your gifts to help bring positivity, joy, happiness, comfort and support to those in need.
Your life’s purpose is to use your talents in the service of others.
Listen in to see how...

In this episode I share some thoughts on how we can find our life’s purpose and how we can achieve our life’s goal’s if we trust and believe in the universal energy force that flows through all of us...all living things. In other words, let go...and let God.
What are your goals? What do you want most out of your life and what is holding you back? What are you afraid of and how can you build the courage to overcome your fear?
This week’s episode is focused on the third step in the Daily 4, Courage, and how our faith can overcome our fears.
This week we’re talking about the universal energy vibrations that flow from positive (or negative) thoughts. Positive thoughts create positive energy that manifests positive results.

Hi Positive Podsters...
have you ever noticed that when you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change?
This is never more true than when you look at life from a positive perspective, seeking to see the blessings and opportunities in every situation...
That is what today's podcast is all about...
Enjoy.

Hi All,
In this episode, I am sharing a few tips for how to stay positive during the coronavirus situation. This is courtesy of a recent Forbes article I read (linked below).

Be safe, be well and stay positive
Pursue that feeling of equal parts excitement and terror.
Feel the fear and do it anyway!
Everything you want in your life...is on the other side of fear!
All of these quotes have one thing in common. Fear.
Listen in to today's podcast to learn more about the true power of fear -- or better yet -- the lack of power fear truly has on us. :)
I recently watched on YouTube a video of Denzel Washington giving a commencement address to recent college graduates. In the video, Denzel talks about “Falling Forward” - and this sparked a thought I had about my own life and how Positivity can play a a massive role in how we fall forward, overcoming our fears and growing from failure.
It took a heart attack for me to hear my heart's voice...and to embrace life to the fullest.
My wish for you is to listen to your heart and pursue that which makes your heart and soul come alive. Here is to being afraid...and going for it anyway!
Everything we want in life...is on the other side of fear!
