Isn’t it sad to see someone who was once considered beautiful, sexy, popular and much sought after turned into an empty shell? In other words a hottie turned into a nottie? One of the big misconceptions that the media portrays on men and women is that all you have to do to be successful is to be attractive, popular and available. If a person falls into that trap and doesn’t develop some deeper qualities and values in life…eventually, the emptiness turns a person into a sad, shell of a person who seeks attention in the only way they know how; displaying what they consider to be their only value…their body.
You see this all of the time in the world of celebrities…but everyday people often fall into that trap as well. Beauty, youth, and popularity all pass away in time…what’s left is the spirit, the mind, and their purpose in life. If those aren’t developed along the way…the search for meaning is sometimes mis-directed onto meaningless relationships, trendy pseudo-religions, drugs/alcohol abuse, and endless dramatic attempts to seek attention.
As a society we need to devalue the attention that the media puts on empty pursuits by public role models. We need to encourage those sports figures, politicians, and celebrities who are doing positive…purposeful things in life. Quite giving time and attention to those who are living on the edge and doing nothing more with the gifts in their lives than pursuing selfish and destructive behaviors. In raising our children, we need to develop character building, self esteem, and goals of reaching out to others.
We do this by teaching them to discover how to connect to others, give back to those who are less fortunate in life, teach them spiritual fulfillment, and to value their bodies by encouraging modesty and healthy self- esteem building techniques.
I dont like seeing young guys or gals flaunting their bodies or their finances to gain attention; I like it even less when i see a 40-60 year old who talks, acts, spends, and dresses like a teenager…because that is the only way they know to attract members of the opposite sex. Let’s encourage an attitude of growth, respect, confidence, and personal development as a way of life!

Are you living your life fully or are you going through the motions just waiting for something to happen to change the way things are? Do you have long term and short term goals in place? Are you focussed on enjoying today while planning for tomorrow? Life is an interesting mix of failures, accomplishments, goals; each has their place in your life to enable you to be successful in your personal and professional life.
Have you ever heard how people answer questions about their life? Anyone ever said to you…it is just another day? That my friend, is a life that is un-fulfilled. That is a person who isn’t engaged with their purpose in life. Maybe they don’t know that they live and breathe for a reason. Every person has gifts, ideas, experiences, talents, and knowledge that is meant to move them and others through life in a positive way. Sitting on those qualities and hoarding them without using them to improve life is a one way trip to no-where.
Do you know anyone who has to learn life the hard way? Are they condemned to experience life through failure? Or , are they equipped to live and learn from the mistakes and the successes of others…saving themselves time and enabling them to succeed more quickly and efficiently?
I want to tell you about an opportunity to experience something that has never been done before. There is going to be a life changing seminar in Long Beach, California Sept 26-28th put on by Brendon Burchard, author, life coach, businessman and motivational speaker.
