My basketball coach in high school was awesome….and awful. I loved him…and hated him. This love/hate relationship was based on the fact that he would not give us one damn inch of sympathy when it came to anything. He was a coach-a damn good coach- and he was serious about pushing you to the limit and winning.

Tired? Too bad. Give me another suicide.
Frustrated? Suck it up and get your ass back out there and play your heart out. Mind not in the game? Get off the court and cop a squat on the bench.

I am competitive, but I tend to reach a certain point in which I think I’m doing my best- and I’m clearly not. I settle, or whine, or resort to believing the absurd thought,

“Well I’m doing better than a lot of people, so no big deal.”

IT IS A BIG DEAL.

It sucks to settle.

Life has got so much more for us friends.

Are you tired of the same old same?
Are you bored?
Lonely?
Frustrated?
Broke?
Are you willing to do what it takes to get to a spot in which you are satisfied?

Break the cycle now!

Are you down? Get the hell up.

Frustrated? Get over it.

Lonely? Get your booty out there and connect with people.

Broke? Work 2, 3, 4 jobs and stop being financially irresponsible.

Scared? Face your fear and tell it to hit the road.

Tired? Suck it up and muster up every damn ounce of energy in you.

Discover what you are made of.

LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT.

It’s full of possibility and potential.

Can you hear your soul calling?

Can you feel creative forces within beckoning?

Expand, allow, create your unique and awesome life.

One day at a time.

SMILE.

RELAX.

BE.

DISCOVER YOU.

I was watching my six and nine year old daughters playing the other morning when suddenly there was a barrage of I Hate You and I Don't Like You Anymore statements flying about the room. Of course, it was just a moment of disagreement in child play, but the thoughts and feelings were real enough to them at that moment.
