Spiritual Awakening: Inspiration Leads To Fruition

Spiritual Awakening: Inspiration Leads To Fruition

 Once you are inspired it is important to act on that inspiration and allow the inspiration to bring your vision to fruition. There will be many trials and tibulations. There will be doubters. There will be successes. There will be supporters. In the end when you are deep into reflection you will realize that it was all well worth it. Think about it it is your vision, your inspiration that is bringing thing to fruition. Have you sat down and wrote out intentions and planned to take some action on those intentions?

One of my visions is fast coming to fruition where as on March 24, 2012 I will be bring people together for The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards. Today I received a proof of what the certificates will look like and I was very pleased. It is an amazing feeling to know that you took action and moved forward in a positive direction and brought something to fruition.

Spiritual Awakening: Staying Alive

Spiritual Awakening: Staying Alive

In 1983 John Travolta starred in a movie Staying Alive. As I watched this video I started to really listen to the lyrics and one thing stood out the lyric “I am far from over.”

As thought about that lyric I began to think how all of us are far from over that we are all on a path to create a better life for oursleves and those around us. We are all staying live by being of service and value to others. When I conceived the idea of The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Award I lookked for and I found people who are keeping dreams alive and helping other to stay alive by creating a nuturing and encouraging community. I was amazed by how many people are helping others to stay alive.

http://youtu.be/f7oEdmZiMsU This link will bring you to a video Staying Alive by The Bee Gees. Everytime I hear this song I get pumped up and I am reminded of my purple parachute pants.Even back than I was interested in helping people to stay alive and helping them to find their passion. What is is that wakes you up and helps you to stay alive?

Spiritual Awakening: Are You A Dreamweaver or Dream Stealer

Are You A Dreamweaver or Dream Stealer ?

How many times have some one approached you with their vision and you thought wow what a concept or that will never work?  How many times have you verbalized your feelings not realizing the impact it would have on that person. Do you consider yourself a dreamweaver, a person who encourages and uplifts people when they share their dreams with you regardless of how far fetched it may seem, or are you a dream stealer, someone who puts down the idea and finds all the reasons it won’t work. As a business and life advisor I like to be a dreamweaver and help people follow their vision. Being a dreamweaver has many rewards one of which is seeing the progress and growth in someone you helped with their vision.

One of my favorites by Langston Hughes that I use often on my radio show, which can be heard on Monday from 7-8 PM EST at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyeradio1, where we talk about emowerment and inspiration with our guests, if you can not tune in live all the shows are archived. I also use this to be a dreamweaver on my Tantalizing Tuesday Teleclasses, which can be heard at 1-605-477-2100 pin 131099 from 7-8 PM EST, where again I have guests that are dreamweavers helping other people excel talk about a myriad of subjects. I am one who walks his talk as I consider myself a dreamweaver.

Spiritual Awakening: Are You An Action Taker or Excuse Maker

Spiritual Awakening: Action Taker or Excuse Maker

 I have often spoken to groups about having a Winning Mentality vs. having a Losing Mentality. I have always asked are you an action taker or an excuse maker. I once made excuses why I couldn’t do things and shied away from doing them. I used to come from a position of lack and stop before I may have had success. Today I look at what I say and I realize that to be an action taker you must put the excuses asisde and find a way to make it happen. As I bgan to implement the concept of The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards I began to fall back onto the old ways and excuses and nearly cancelled the event twice, then I said the heck with it I am going for it and now on 3/24 The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards will happen. I went from I can’t afford that to I will find a way. I went from I am not a big enough name to I will build my name and this event. I went from you don’t have a team behind you to I will be a mighty team of one. I wen from your don’t have  finacial backing to I will find financial backing. After I made this shift I then took action and when you visit www.spiritualawakeningevent.com you can see how this first year event is taking shape. In the next two week I will be featuring action takers who didn’t make excuses but took action and today are leaders in their respective fields who I have the privilege to present a Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Award to. Many of the people getting this award could have given into the little voice in their head that said your not good enough, however they embraced thier vision and moved forward with their passion realizing that Passion + A

Spiritual Awakening: How Strong Are You?

Spiritual Awakening: How Strong Are You

I am often asked how strong are you? I answer I don’t don’t my own strength.   As I began to read about those I will be honoring at The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards I began to see how therr strength and commintment made me stronger. I have chosen 44 individuals who exemplify strength in their passion for making the world a better place. I have met so many awesome people since I began to look for people making a difference in the lives of others.

   A few years ago I learned about Terry Fox, whomis pictured here during his marathon of hope, where he walked across Canada to raise awareness and funds for cancer research. His story is portratyed in The Disney Movie, The Terry Fox Story. His determination inspired not only the people of Canada but throughout the world and a s a result The Terry Fox Foundation was formed.

 Though I have not met Vince Papale I admire and respect him as he has overcome adversity in his life and now helps others to reach their full potential. He was not the biggest or strongest but he was the most determined and as a  result was selected to paly for The Philadelphia Eagles and through harr work and a never give up attitude he made a mark as a terrific special teams player. Papale has battled colon cancer and today advocates for early detection. His story is portrayed in the movie Invincable.

Spiritual Awakening: Lombardi – Winning Isn’t Everything It Is The Only Thing

    Spiritual Awakening: Winning Isn’t Everything It Is The Only Thing

One of my favorite coaches in football history is Vince Lombardi. Though I never saw him coach I have  watched tape, read books, and listened to interviews and many of his quotes  resonate with me. One quote he is creditted with is Winning Isn’t Everything It Is The Only Thing.  To me this means that in all you do you should set a goal of winning. In our spiritual path we should set out to win by being of service and value and thus we will reap the rewards that go along with this philosophy.  As I count down the days to The Spiritual Entreprenuers Visionary Awards I am reminded that Together Everyone Accomplishes More. Together we will provide a day of Empowerment and Inspiration while raising funds to help kids with cancer. In this case winning is the  only thing as we can create a world with less cancer and more birthdays.

Some tratits that go into winning.

To be a winner  you need to:

1: Prepare to win- In many cases this is being able to send and receive messages to enhance the lives of those around you

2: Practice your craft- Everyday you hone your skills you will improve

3: Give back to the community- A small bit of assistance can change the life of those that you come in contact with

4:Be kind- Showing compassion will ender you to others

5: Take risks- when you step out of your comfort zone you expand and good thibgs happen

 

Spiritual Awakening: People With A Winning Attitude

I chose Vince Lombardi today because his philosophy on coaching translates so well to life. He embraced a winning attitude. He cultivativated an atmosphers of winning. All of the honorees of The Spiritual Entreprenuers Visionary Awards exemplify a winning attitude. They have demostrated that winning is created by having a  strong willto prepare to win.

 Rick Figley was chosen as an honoree as he helps other people excel through his spiritual work and Namaste Websites.

Spiritual Awakening: Applaud and Celebrate Your Greatness and Greatness in Others

One of the greatest ways to celebrate and embrace greatness is sitting quietly watching the sunset and recording all that was great in the day.

Spiritual Awakening: Embracing Greatness

When I meet people that are inspiringa nd empowering others I like to applaud and celebrate them. I like to embrace greatness and offer people that are making a positive difference in their lives and the lives of others an opportunity to appear on my Internet Radio Show, Get Motivated With Jonathan JDOGG Lederman, that airs on Monday from 7-8 PM EST at www.blogtalkradio.com/thirdeyeradio1. I also like to invite them to be part of my weekly teleclass, Tantalizing Tuesday which is heard from 7-8 PM EST at 605-477-2100 pin 131099#. The idea is to empower and inspire others by interviewing those who are walking their talk and delivering a positive message.  When you embrace and celebrate greatness you begin to find your own greatness. As you embrace your greatness you stretch yourself to do things you may have never thought possible. This was the case when I envisioned The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards. We are now 19 days away from this event and have 6 great speakers and 42 incredible honorees.Over the next few weeks I will introduce you to these honorees. It is my hope that you will visit www.spiritualawakeningevent.com and support the effort to embrace greatness.

Spiritual Awakening: SING YOUR SONG!!!!

Spiritual Awakening: Sing Your Song

This blog entry was inspired by Abba’s song, Thank You For The Music. As I listened to the lrics I began to ask what is the song you want the world to hear and be thankful to you for singing? What positive message will you be able to deliver to the world? I began to think of the songs that I listen to for inspiration. I have my top 10 ranked later in this entry. We all have a song to sing and I encourage you to sing yours loud so the entire world will hear and be moved by you to take action. It is when you sing your song that you shine your light and inspire and empower others to do the same.

 Gloria Gaynor’s I Will Survive has become an anthem for many to sing their song.

Spiritual Awakening: Finding Your Song

I use the word song to encompass all talents that you posses. How do I find my song(purpose)  is a question I am asked so many times when I am helping people with media and marketing relations. Each of us has a calling( a song) and once we find that calling great things begin to unfold. Whatever you are being called to do at this moment to be a shining light and to sing your song embrace it and watch the greatness unfold. There are many ways to find your song.

1: Answer What do I Enjoy?

2: Ask How Can My Song Be of Value and Service?

3: Who Am I Surrounding Myself With?

For me I enjoy helping people get the word out so I became The Spiritual Eemcee Maximizing Your Message. I provide a service taht everyoen with a business needs, the ability to get media attention. I surround myself with others that support my mission, such as providing a great event with The Spiritual Entrepreneurs Visionary Awards, which will be held on 3/24/12 at Unity Church in Pompano Beach from9 AM – 4 PM. MY song is one of hope and inspiration. Through my ability to plan projects, bring people together, and help kids with cancer I have been able to further the mission and sing my song.

Your song when sung will lift others up and as a result you will be lifted

I found my song when I looked deep inside and realized that I am a child of God and God’s Purpose for me is to Help Others Excel. Once I accepted this purpose things in my life began to change for the good. There have been challenges and I have been scared but I have been singing my song loudly wherever I go. I have wondered where money will come from, and then I remembered if I sing my song the money will come and it has eachtime I have sung my song.

When I need inspiration and motivation  I look to quotes and pictures and then I continue to sing my song.
