1. Stay Positive - You can listen to the cynics and doubters and believe that success is impossible or you can trust that with faith and an optimistic attitude all things are possible.

2. Take a daily "Thank You Walk." You can’t be stressed and thankful at the same time. Feel blessed and you won’t be stressed.

3. When possible, spend less time sitting and more time exercising, lifting, stretching, and moving. Like a river you were made to move.

4. Talk to yourself instead of listen to yourself. Instead of listening to your complaints, fears and doubts, talk to yourself with words of truth and encouragement.

5. Post a sign that says "No Energy Vampires Allowed." Gandhi said, “I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet,” and neither should you! Download my Neutralize Negativity Kit.

7. Fight the right battles. Fight the battles that keep you going forward, not the ones that keep you stuck in the past.

9. Don't waste your precious energy on gossip, naysayers, issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control.

10. Live your purpose. Remember your why. We don’t get burned out because of what we do. We get burned out because we forget why we do it.

11. Fuel your life with love instead of fear. Fear is draining. Love is sustaining. Fear weakens you. Love strengthens you. 

12. Make sure you have a mission, a team and a scoreboard. You need all three to thrive and go to the next level.

15. Don't seek happiness. Instead live with love, passion and purpose and happiness will find you. 

16. Focus on "Get to" vs "Have to." Each day focus on what you get to do, not what you have to do. Life is a gift not an obligation.

17. The next time you "fail" remember that it’s not meant to define you. It’s meant to refine you.

18. Smile and laugh more. They are natural anti-depressants.

19. Create your Circle of Supporters. Who is in your circle determines how fast and high you rise.
