Meet The Dead Files Steve DiSchiavi and hear about his new project “Blue Plate”

Lisa V. Proulx, Author/Speaker

Hey everyone! Hope you’re enjoying your summer! It’s been a real scorcher here in Maryland and although I like the heat, it’s been a little too hot for me! Today we are on day 8 of a 12 day heat wave!

It is so hot here, I feel like I am wearing black during August in Rome (my Italian friends will get that).

I can’t believe how fast the summer is flying by! Before ya know it, we’ll be hearing Jingles Bells playing at the local Walmart!

I love this time of year and when I think of summer, I think of fireflies, porch swings, and food!

I also think about good friends and neat places to eat and that’s why I am excited to introduce you to someone special today.

He’s not only a cool cat, a happenin’ dude and an all around good guy, he’s one of my…

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

can-do-it2 - cants to cans drams to plans

Do it! You know you want to. So Do it! Stop procrastinating and actually do it. Cross something off your bucket list. Stop making excuses and find the way and the means to do something you have always wanted to do. Your bucket list are the things you want to do so go and do them. At least cross one item off the list real soon!

Don’t waste any more time. You will only have less time as days go on. You will only be older so the time is now. Pick that something positive you really want to experience and experience it. For goodness sakes how long will you keep putting it off in the future? Stop and make it happen now.

make an effort not an excuse

Sometimes the he hardest part of doing anything is starting. Do not let that stop you or prevent you from enjoying a highlight. Make the commitment to begin. It…

Not Feeling Successful? Do This And Succeed!

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

The-Moment-You-Take-Responsibility-350x206

“New Year always gets people motivated for awhile. Are you one of those who makes all sorts of vows only to find yourself keeping a few? Maybe none? Somewhere along the way you run out of steam or forget and give up. If that is what you have done in the past, so be it.

Accept it, and move on. Your past has nothing to do with your future. It really has nothing to do with your present. That was then and this is now. Decide it will be different and then learn easy ways of making that so.

One way to insure that you keep motivated and inspired in keeping your resolutions is to not bite off more than you can chew. Take it easy on yourself and do a little bit by bit. The way you eat an elephant is bite by bite. Many people just try to…

How To Keep Your New Year Resolutions!

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

align yourself with mentors

It is the beginning of the New Year. You want to make a difference for yourself don’t you? You want to get your goals and keep your resolutions? A great way to do this is to help others get their goals and keep their resolutions. Be a support to someone else. Create a support team or buddy system.

Make it a point to give to them first and allow them to give to you. The magic happens when you go first and give for no reason other than to help another person. Find positive productive people you can work together with as a support system. Help each other stay inspired and motivated. Help each other to keep reaching to their personal best.

Invest in these relationships with others. Choose people who are positive. Don’t expect the best if you choose poorly. Pick people who are positive and help each other feel…

Do This And Change Your Life!

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

there is nothing impossible

“Choice is a moment to moment activity. It requires that you choose and then choose again as needed. Each moment there is a choice to be made. You will choose, if you make mistakes you have the opportunity to choose to correct those mistakes. When you correct your choice you are learning to maneuver back towards what you want. Learning to make positive choices and self-correct as necessary is an important skill to develop. You want to make it habit.

Building a habit requires that you consistently perform the same actions and behaviors over and over again until they get wired in. Once wired in they operate on their own reliable when triggered. This is how we developed less than glorious habits and it is how we develop good positive ones. Build positive habits!

When you chose to build a positive skill you correctly repeat the skill enough times, over time…

You Are Creators Act Like It! Start Getting What You Want.

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

youa are creators

“Most people look around, see what is happening, and feel something about it in response. They let the present circumstances, people and events determine how they feel. They use their senses as evidence of the results they are getting. They think ‘I will believe it when I see it’.

Somehow  they think seeing  is not subject to deception but it is. All our senses leave information out, and can distort what is actually there. We trust too much in our perceptions which can be very wrong. They do deceive us often. Looking at circumstances is a mistake when you want to create something. You have to look at what you want to create instead.

For most people life happens to them and they react to it. They react out of habit.  As we grew up and life situations were repeated our brains hard wired the responses in. It did it to streamline them. We don’t have much  choice. We…

What To Do When You Are Feeling Bad

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

energy goes where attention goes

“There is only energy. This is what physics tells us. Everything is energy at different rates of vibration. This  is a very important understanding.  We use our senses to define our world and our experience but our senses are limited. Our senses can be and are deceived. Yet, we think IF we see it then it must be real. We are mistaken to think so.

Everything is energy! The energy is either very high frequency which we are unable to perceive or low frequency. The lower frequencies  we can notice the vibratory effects on our eyes, ears, body, nose and mouth. Everything is energy. It is all the same one energy in various forms. Everything is in a constant state of vibration. Light, sound, heat, thought, everything!

There are positive and negative charges. Positive and negative thoughts. Positive and negative feelings. These are simply whatever they are but we human labels them…

You Can Have Everything You Want PT 1

Blog by @RexSikes, a must read!

Rex Sikes' Daily Inspiration and Gratitude

everydat is a new beginning

“Write your goal down. Be specific as possibly. Put down what you want to be like, what you want to do and have and by when. Have a date of completion. Be fairly realistic as to when you want this. Someone once said, ‘There are no unrealistic goals just unrealistic time frames for them to be accomplished.’ Since I am not proposing magic, or wishing or dreaming something into existence, make it real. You can wish for a million or more dollars but can you truly believe you will get it this week? For some, yes perhaps, for others no.

I firmly believe you can get anything you want when you believe it is both possible and plausible. When you believe you can do it, accomplish it and make it come true then you open the door for your creativity and resourcefulness to assist you in making that happen. If…
