Personal Development For Every Day

Personal development for every day of your year @forwardsteps https://www.forwardstepsblog.com/personal-development-for-every-day/

Life Power Tip Give yourself full permission to “just be” and relax a little! You are invaluable and a treasure just because “you are” and “exactly the way you are”. No reasons, justifications, and qualifications needed. No adjustments, fixing, and changes warranted. Now… walk, act, and talk like you know that! “Be” the way a person, who truly believes that, would “be” – just because you can – again, no reasons. A Chinese Proverb says, “Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are”. Action Notice at least five things, today, for which you can be very grateful. Challenge If you have erred, correct it or forgive yourself and forget it. Quote It is the greatest shot of adrenaline to be doing what you have wanted to do so badly. You almost feel like you could fly without the plane. -Charles Lindbergh Clearing Go paperless and do not print, unless you absolutely must. Question What are you willing to do today that you have lately been unwilling to step into? Affirmation I choose to forgive myself if I make mistakes. Uplifting Extra If you listen to the Power Quadrant System you will discover at least 3 eye-opening things about yourself that you can use today to radically change how you choose your calling, to find your soul mate or to evaluate business partners in your future.

Life Power Tip Give yourself a new perspective if your energy is low. Imagine you are in a business of your own and things are not faring well. What are all the thoughts that you have when you say the word ‘business’? As Dr Phil would say, “How’s that working for you?” If you are not producing your desired results, could you attach some new thoughts to the word ‘business’ or give your enterprise another ‘label’, one that empowers you? Action Never give up. You never just know how close you are to a big breakthrough! Challenge If you have an office, spend only twenty percent of your day in that office today. Quote It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no one can sincerely try to help another without helping themself. -Ralph Waldo Emerson Clearing Write down anything that needs fixing and schedule times to fix them. Question What are you waiting for? Affirmation I choose to have nutritious meals to sustain me. Uplifting Extra The only way we can be released from any painful sense of false responsibility is to see that it is based in a false belief. Study carefully this list of six false beliefs. Dare to learn everything you can about your own false beliefs, then watch the weight of false responsibilities falls off of you. (Link is below)

Completely gave you the wrong link for The Last Waltz movie we watched tonight. So sorry! Here’s the one we watched: It started as a concert. It became a celebration. Join an unparalleled lineup of rock superstars as they celebrate The Band’s historic 1976 Thanksgiving Day farewell performance at Winterland in San Francisco. Directed by Martin Scorsese (“Raging Bull”), “The Last Waltz” is not only “the most beautiful rock film ever made” (The New Yorker)…it’s “one of the most important cultural events of the last two decades” (Rolling Stone)! Starring The Band (Rick Danko, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, Richard Manuel and Robbie Robertson) and featuring Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Neil Diamond, Emmylou Harris, Muddy Waters, The Staples, Ringo Starr, Ron Wood, Dr. John, Paul Butterfield and Ronnie Hawkins. Release date 1978 Running time 1:57:19 Actors Rick Danko Levon Helm Garth Hudson Richard Manuel Robbie Robertson Eric Clapton Neil Diamond Bob Dylan Joni Mitchell Neil Young Emmylou Harris Ringo Starr Paul Butterfield Dr. John Van Morrison Ronnie Hawkins The Staples Muddy Waters Ron Wood Director Martin Scorsese Producers Bill Graham Robbie Robertson

Tonight my husband and I are going to watch The Last Waltz movie All text below was copied from below the YouTube video as linked to here in my post: The Last Waltz was more than just a concert—it was a defining moment in music history. The Band, one of the most influential groups in American and Canadian rock, took the stage for their final performance on November 25, 1976, joined by a legendary roster of special guests. And now, The Great Divide—celebrating 10 years as a group—will bring this historic night to life once again. 0:00:00 Opening 0:01:06 Don’t Do It 0:06:14 Intro Credits 0:09:06 Up on Cripple Creek 0:13:41The Shape I’m In 0:17:37 Interview 0:18:25 Who Do You Love – Elliot C Way 0:22:05 Interview 0:22:13 It Makes No Difference 0:28:53 Such a Night – Dan Moxon 0:33:37 Interview 0:34:13 Helpless – Etienne Tremblay 0:39:34 Stagefright 0:43:54 The Weight – Dawn Pemberton 0:49:18 Interview 0:49:51 The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down 0:54:07 Dry Your Eyes – Janky Bungag 0:58:40 Coyote – Samantha Pardon 1:04:02 Interview 1:04:21 Mystery Train – Paul Pigat 1:11:05 Mannish Boy – Jim Byrnes 1:17:20 Interview 1:17:33 Further on Up the Road – Scott Smith 1:23:28 Evangeline – Mercy Walker 1:26:40 Chest Fever 1:32:37 Interview 1:33:28 Ophelia 1:37:19 Caravan – Chris Woudstra 1:43:23 Interview 1:43:53 Forever Young 1:48:21 Baby Let Me Follow You Down 1:52:04 I Shall Be Released 1:57:21 Closing Credits The Last Waltz was more than just a concert—it was a defining moment in music history. The Band, one of the most influential groups in American and Canadian rock, took the stage for their final performance on November 25, 1976, joined by a legendary roster of special guests. And now, The Great Divide—celebrating 10 years as a group—will bring this historic night to life once again. The Great Divide | Canada’s Tribute to The Band (Dylan Stone - Guitar, Geoff Howe - Bass, Sean Thompson - Drums, Aidan Miller - Piano, & Jack Weyler - Organ) performed The Band’s iconic farewell concert in its entirety, joined by some of Vancouver BC’s finest musicians to bring the entire concert to life. Performing with the same instrumentation and five-vocalist approach that made The Band so distinctive, The Great Divide delivers an unmatched authenticity that honors the legacy of Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, Garth Hudson, and Richard Manuel. Joining The Great Divide on stage was a stellar lineup of special guests, including Dawn Pemberton, Paul Pigat, Jim Byrnes, Dan Moxon, Samantha Parton, Scott Smith, Elliot Way, Janky Bungag, Etienne Tremblay, Chris Woudstra, and Mercy Walker, ensuring a rich and authentic recreation of The Last Waltz experience. The original 'The Last Waltz' movie was filmed by director Martin Scorsese, who made it into a documentary of the same title, released in 1978.

Life Power Tip Get your goals into action mode. After setting a broad, intended outcome for a goal, for example, I choose to create a shiny, bright and highly organized office space with all my tools and information at my fingertips; get yourself super focused with action based targets. Something like, by the end of the week I will have 10 email in-box folders organized, 5 files cleaned up in the filing cabinet, and a new office chair. Structuring short-term activities will help you toward the completion of your larger vision goals, and you will see them more readily as a done deal. Action Make yourself a ‘real’ coffee in the morning. Challenge If there is something that can be done to improve on a situation, do it. Quote It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change. – Charles Darwin Clearing Have a clean start when you can. What can you set up the night before? Question What are you tolerating that may be blocking your energy? Affirmation I choose to feel increasingly elevated and elated. Uplifting Extra The science of psychological manipulation has been weaponized. Unless you’re aware of how it works, you’re not just a target, you’re an easy target. The moment you let your guard down, the moment you run your mind on “autopilot”, you’re vulnerable. Here’s the good news. Once you learn the blueprint of how these tactics work, they lose their power over you. It’s like installing a mental firewall. Instead of reacting blindly, you start spotting the trick the second it shows up. You become impossible to gaslight. You stop folding under pressure. You finally see the game for what it is.

Life Power Tip Get very specific and clear on the future that you want to create. You cannot plan the road map for your journey if you have no idea of your intended destination. You cannot very well plan a detailed road-trip from Perth to Sydney, within Australia, if your intended destination is overseas from Australia to Alaska. Are your current actions and steps taking you to your chosen, desired destination? Action Make others feel good, and you will feel better in return. Challenge If self-doubt creeps in, quickly replace your thoughts with a good image of your actions. Quote Instead of worrying about what you cannot control, shift your energy to what you can create. -Roy T. Bennett Clearing Give some tender loving to indoor plants. Wash/trim your indoor plants. Question What are you naturally good at? Affirmation I choose to always promote myself. Uplifting Extra In a world that often rewards perfection and polished appearances, Labubu stands as a delightful reminder of individuality, playfulness and personal growth. Created by Hong Kong artist Kasing Lung and popularised through Pop Mart, Labubu is far more than a collectible toy. Its wide eyes, mischievous grin and whimsical antics invite both children and adults to approach life differently. Labubu encourages curiosity, joy and the acceptance of imperfection, offering lessons that reach far beyond the realm of toys. Collectors learn more than just the excitement of a rare find, they are invited to reflect on their own journeys, values and aspirations. (Link is below)
