As we enter the year of 2011 we have the movies to remind us of our past and the opportunity we have in our future. Will we live our life vicariously through the movies or will we use the movies as an opportunity to stop and think or should I say remember who we are so that we can go out and create our own movie. What is our movie about? The movie that tells our life story. Are we being true to our story? Who are we being in the story and what truth are we not telling? Do we really know our truth? What truth are we willing to tell?

Tony Robbins 2011

If we want to change our relationships we have to master our emotions. If we want it to get better start by looking at it as it is. Become addicted to making everything better. We need a compelling future. Make complex things simple. Look for a nickle word to keep things simple. Thank you Tony for your words of wisdom.

Innovation can therefore be seen as the process that renews something that exists and not, as is commonly assumed, the introduction of something new. How can we be innovative in our relationships? History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. With this concept of innovation and new defined, we gain greater clarity of the opportunities to build on the secrets of our future revealed in the keys of our past. In our present “New”, we like to say keywords of the past or keywords of our future. So we greater understand the value of our history as it relates to understanding our future.

Contemplate the lily of the field. They exist without work or worry and yet by following their purpose they cannot be surpassed by the finest designer

Lilies of the Field - 1963 film

It tells the story of an African American itinerant worker who encounters a group of East German nuns who are convinced he has been sent to them by God to help them build a new chapel.

Ms. Gabrielle Bonheur "Coco" Chanel (19 August 1883 – 10 January 1971)
What are 5 important events that happened in Coco Chanel's life?
Authenticity and truth of purpose are the real beauty. We all come into the world with birth gifts that are meant to be shared to bring real beauty into the world. When we acknowledge our birth gifts and allow ourselves to believe in our value we emerge to share the beauty that is our true purpose. We have the opportunity to lift everyone that we come in contact with to a better place.

We are often encouraged to stop and smell the roses. It’s a simple thing but what can we learn from it? The rose like the lily is just doing what it does naturally. It grows, it blooms, we are impressed and then it does it again. By just following the plan that is laid out for it the rose and the lily have inspired people though out history.

Down deep in their genes is an automated program for shape, size, color and fragrance. They don’t spend time thinking about what to be when they grow up. They don’t worry about what people will think about them. They are programmed to share their gifts and in return they are cared for and their future is secured.

We also have our birth gifts that are built into who we are. Too often we are not encouraged to believe in ourselves. How many times have we heard about someone that was discouraged from pursuing their life passion for one reason or another. A lack of self esteem robs us of our opportunity to share the birth gifts that we have. Each of us has a beauty inside that we need to rediscover and nurture in order to become a positive force inspiration in the world. That inspiration is the fertilizer that is needed to encourage others to come into bloom and share their birth gifts. Passions and natural talents are the emergence or our authentic beauty like the Lily and the Rose in the spring.
