Markell May Have Cancer. But He's Unstoppable.

MONDAY'S MOTIVATIONAL VIDEO:
OUR ATTITUDE DETERMINES OUR ATTITUDE
I love this young man.  I've never met him but I love him for his courage and strength.  This video hits close to home.  Tests, surgeries, and waiting for results are tough.  His attitude lifts him and those around him higher and higher!  You don't have to have cancer as a teen to understand significant life challenges. It's easy to feel sorry for yourself and give in.  It also doesn't take much effort.  It is very hard to stay positive in the face of change - especially change you didn't ask for.  That positive attitude starts with a choice - a simple choice.  That small choice takes a ton of energy and sustained effort over time but don't worry about that part... you will grow into that effort and find that energy once you commit to the positive.  It's especially difficult when the outcome is unknown and forever away.  A great attitude pays off throughout your challenge and is a powerful tool for perspective as we look back on the challenge when it's past.  Choose to fight!  Do something today!  Build you aptitude for a great attitude now when times are good and you'll have a habit ready to go when the tough days come!

The Surprising Truth About Motivation

Yesterday I talked about playing with a purpose. When we play we relax. When things are fun things get done. You might be saying, "Nice Russ. That's why we call it work. If work were supposed to be fun we would spell it F-U-N not W-O-R-K!" Check out this video. It's brilliant! Two people teamed up and gave us a great product that looks a lot like fun! Enjoy
