Live What You’ve Learned

mikicollier

What are you waiting on? I really believe that we get it confused on living and learning. More than anyone I understand that we should always stay in a place of learning. That simply means, I never want to think that I know it all, because I don’t. However we forget to live. Throughout the course of life we are forever learning. Sometimes we learn what to do and other times we learn what not to do. We learn how to apply, we learn the meaning of and we even learn a portion of our purpose and an understanding of … Continue reading Live What You’ve Learned

Personality is a Part

mikicollier

The moment we hear the word personality our mind shifts to one of two things either good or bad.  Very seldom do we talk about an in between personality.  Whatever you do in life or desire to accomplish it’s vital that you understand personality plays a significant part.  I know I know we have often been taught that knowledge is the key, well it is.  Knowledge unlocks certain areas that we need access to and personality reveals who we are. The knowledge says what we know.  The personality not only reveals who we are it also plays a part in … Continue reading Personality is a Part

Failure and Success

mikicollier

Failure and Success are two powerful words yet often misperceived and over achieved.  As much as we view these two words differently they are both apart of each others lives.   Failure is apart of the process and Success is the destination.  I really hope someone caught that because so many times we run from failure because we only attach it to those who don’t succeed. When in reality the level of success is often formed through the many failures.  Now don’t get me wrong there are many who fail and never succeed.  These are the ones who didn’t realize … Continue reading Failure and Success

  Yea! It’s “FREE FRIDAY”  Now don’t get me wrong everyday is a free day.  I just love the idea that Friday reminds me to become conscious of it and take time to celebrate it.  So today I want to empower you to change your view.

It reminded me of why the celebration of Freedom is so important.  With all of that being said I wanted to know how I could help someone else move beyond that … Continue reading Change Your View

Replace It (Motivational Monday)

mikicollier

It’s funny how we learn to replace everything in our lives from cell phones to stoves and for some even spouses (I’m not recommending that at all). We replace them because their broken or they no longer function according to our personal needs and some do it to just simply keep up. Well, what if you learned to do that with your worry? The very thoughts that disturb your daily functions bringing anxieties and uneasiness into our lives. Yes that’s worry. You can “replace it” with prayer and live a life free in mind as well as spirit. 1. Petition … Continue reading Replace It (Motivational Monday)

Get a Life/Live Your Life

mikicollier

Get A Life. Wow how many times have we heard this saying or shall I say how many times have we said it.  Ok, I’ll speak for myself I know years ago through conversation often times with others I would say “They, she, he, need to “Get A Life”.  It’s such a common saying people have titled books with it and even made T-shirts out of it just to name a few.  Well it’s really not a fair saying because “Get A Life” comes with a different meaning than an actual life.  It simply indicates that you don’t have anything … Continue reading Get a Life/Live Your Life

Stay Conscious

mikicollier

I have to admit I don’t know alot about football, expect when my son was playing.  I knew his stand, his walk, his number (99), and his reaction when he got a good hit in.   I did know that every now and then there would be a blow so hard that it literally knocked the life out of some.  That one hit  put them to the ground and all they could do is stay there.  It was at that very moment when it felt as though the game was over for the one who was hit.  However I realized … Continue reading Stay Conscious

Element of a BETTER Leader

mikicollier

I often wondered if there was a simple element that I or others missed that would allow them to become BETTER leaders.  Of course upon my search within myself I realized that it was vision.  Not the lack of vision, but the discovery of it. That was it “Discover Vision”.  See a BETTER leaders go beyond hearing vision, reading vision, and writing vision.  Don’t dismiss all of these great elements it’s just that “Discover” is one that can push you to become that BETTER leader.  See when vision is given, read, or written most leaders stop with that or they … Continue reading Element of a BETTER Leader

Lessons From the Titans

mikicollier

Today is Free Friday and I want to share my movie time. Last night I took the time to watch an all time favorite in our home that aired on the family channel.  I couldn’t help but feel like I was in a life lesson.  Looking at my screen with such amazement at the minds of so many yet the determination of a few.  Watching the love of a game bring those with differences and mis- education together for a common goal all while being re-educated for life. At times I wanted to cry and others simply clap my hands at … Continue reading Lessons From the Titans
