It's easy to get lost amongst the throws of schedules, advertisements, technology and needs and wants.
But it's extremely IMPORTANT to notice the gifts or treasures we have to revel in each and every day.
I try my best to appreciate what I belong to daily. Who and what surrounds me. The opportunities that are available. And the message that I'm allowed and gifted to share with others daily, minute by minute, of each and every day of my life as a fitness and health professional.
Some of those include, but are not limited to:
- Having an amazingly supportive family/best friends, for my ambitions and crazy work schedule
- Being surrounded daily by amazing clients, who, without, I'm not sure I'd appreciate truly why I do what I do... it's wonderful to see your hard work brought to fruition and enjoyed by those you care about.
- Being graced with a wonderful Marshfield studio and an amazing person who gave me an opportunity in Vaughn.
- Having a chance daily, when things gets out of focus, to look at what we are building at Robert Belley Fitness, and how far we've come in such a short time.
- Having the ability, to invest in a client, who ends up beating you at your own test... that was an awesome moment Thursday morning. Go Tara ;)
- Being able to shape and develop the youth of Marshfield at Belley Fitness. I thoroughly enjoy seeing the kids laugh, play and enjoy their time here at the studio. There's not many feelings greater than feeling as a true mentor.
- The Internet... I know it sounds silly, but this little information n highway is one way for me to keep in touch with all of you daily. Emails, blogs, research, YouTube ... Without the Internet, I wouldn't be able to help as many of you as I do.
- Having the chance to say Thank You daily... that goes above and beyond
- Having the chance to hear "Thank You" back to me daily... that warms my heart every time. It never gets tiring or ever goes unnoticed.
- Having the chance to follow my dream... that could be the greatest gift
- Being able to say Love You on a consistent basis... that's important... sometimes not said enough
- Creating a world which we can live in, whether it's your home, your workplace, a social scene/network... we have advantages in this country
- Knowledge... it truly unlocks potential... and its everywhere around us... waiting to be absorbed
- Mentors... not just to be one, but to have a number of them... I'm so thankful for that. My mentors are so giving and caring... I'm so fortunate for them.
- Being believed in... that's immense. Totally. A day doesn't go by that I don't appreciate when someone asks me a question or looks to me for an answer, or gives me a thank you card for something I've shared with them. I'm beyond lucky to be a trusted friend/mentor/resource to the family at Robert Belley Fitness and in life.
- I could go on and on...
But you get the idea.
It's amazing how often we overlook these things in our daily lives. When you drive your children to school or sports, when you have dinner with your family. When you meet a friend for lunch or talk to them on the phone. When you can see someone you love and tell them that you do. When the opprtunities around you keep coming to you and you keep replenishing them with life and passion.
Feel fortunate that you are you.
Feel fortunate that you belong to the circles that you do.
Feel fortunate that you have the ability to read this right now, you have vision and sight and the ability to transform thoughts and create words and speech.
Feel fortunate that you have been giving the opportunity to live this life.
If anything, just understand that you are blessed in this world.
Live the Dream,
Rob
