How to Live Your Legacy

There’s a piece where we all think how we should live our legacy is on the big stage, like Marthin Luther King, Jr. and Ghandi. But the reality is, it’s actually how you’re living day to day, the decisions you’re making every day, that lead up to who you’re being in the world, which then rolls up to your legacy.

04-How to Live Your Legacy

CHOOSE Your Legacy

When we’re looking at choose, as it relates to legacy, I think there’s a lot of people that think legacy is just something that happens to you. When you look back at your life, you think “huh, what impact did I have? ” but like everything else, it’s something that you can get conscious about and make choices around. In other words, don’t let your legacy happen to you. CHOOSE your legacy!

How to LIVE with More Gratitude

So here’s what I’ve been learning from The Law of Attraction: it’s not about monitoring your every thought to discover if those thoughts are in gratitude, in non-gratitude, or in ungratefulness. It’s not about watchfully (and obsessively) checking where you are on the continuum.

If living gratitude is about expanding that gratitude, then it’s also about the upper half of the vortex. Our job then (in order to live more in gratitude) is to expand the positive vortex. There’s (at least) a couple of ways to do that.Read More >>>

Live a Life of Participation

Participation is a life choice. We’ve been talking a lot about decisions in the last few months, but if we’re not choosing the perspective of participation then we are choosing passivity and waiting.

So here’s the challenge: Participate. When you might normally (consciously or not) make the choice for inaction, make the choice for action instead.

Truly live your life to the fullest! Participate when you normally wouldn’t.

Here are some situations that you might likely say no to. I challenge you to participate and choose yes instead!

When people invite you out and you’re sitting on the fence, say yes.
Deciding between going for a walk and watching TV, choose the action. Go for a walk.
When seeing other people getting involved in the community, choose to join them! As long as it’s something you’re also excited about, don’t wait to see how it turns out for your friend, jump into action!
If a friend invites you to the opera and you don’t know if you like opera, go find out!
If a friend invites you bungee-jumping and you think you might be too chicken for that, go find out!
If a friend invites you to go to Italy and you’re not sure if you’ll enjoy travelling, go find out! (But only after you’ve introduced that friend to me!)
When someone smiles or flirts with you, smile and flirt right back (and this applies to both the married and unmarried, because a little innocent extramarital flirting can bring some fun back into the marriage!) .
When you are at a restaurant and about to order the same old things… pick something different and discover how you feel about something new.
If you are invited to an event where you won’t know anyone, or you don’t know if you will know anyone… say yes to the invitation and meet some new people.

Okay over to you:

What are other situations you should be saying ‘yes’ to? How has saying ‘yes’ impacted your daily life and mood? I’d love to hear from you! Leave a comment below.

What does it mean to LIVE?

So the final pillar of Signýficant Living (which you will recall is to consciously and fearlessly live a life of meaning, passion and purpose) is … well … LIVE.

Share who you are with the world! Proudly.

I’m talking about living your life out loud (not hiding your light under a bushel). Sharing who you are with the world (whatever part of the world feels right for you, that is). Proudly. And with umph. Bringing all of you, not just the part that seems acceptable. Living true to yourself, who you really are, in line with what is really important to you, so that this life has meaning, and is on purpose for you. So that each day is fulfilling, not just when you reach some lofty goal, but now, right … NOW.
