Welcome
to the "Riding the Wave - The Wave Riders "
Newsletter. http://www.thewaveriders.com
We have a new phrase that describes
"The Wave Riders".
This phrase is "Creativity in
Balance".
The Waver Riders is not about
depression and mental illness.
The Waver Riders is about mental
wellness and learning how to be creative, innovative and successful
while "Riding the emotional and physical energy Waves"
that often come with a creative personality. The Wave Riders
is about using what we have in a productive way that helps
us to prevent depression by curbing the tendency to do too
much, to over work and to over achieve. By balancing we still
manage to acheive in remarkable ways but we do so consistently
and we do not burn out the "happy chemicals in our brains".
My apologies...there has been
a serious delay in the newsletter while we work on a better
delivery system

Motion
So many of us pray for happiness,
wealth and love and then we wait for "it" to arrive.
We cannot sit and wait for someone
or something to rescue us. We must determine what it is we
want in our lives and we have to start to walk toward that
goal, one little step at a time.
As we walk toward our goal we must learn to observe others
without envy. When we envy we say to ourselves that we believe
that we cannot have the "object" that we desire.
As we walk toward our goal we
must not focus on how little progress we have made or the
conditions created from the past we simply must continue to
walk forward. I cannot lose weight by staring at the weight
that I created from eating poorly yesterday - I can only lose
weight by eating better today.
I cannot make my business do
better by staring at the mistakes of my past. I can only more
forward onto something that will work.
Believe that we can do all that
we want to do and just start heading in that direction. We
may not see it right away but what we desire is walking toward
us the instant we begin to walk toward it.
Sometimes, it might mean that
we have to walk a great distance in order to achieve that
goal. This often only means that we had some things to learn
to really be right for the goal.
This might mean that we have
some work to do on ourselves before we are ready for that
perfect mate, the perfect job or the right opportunity.
If we don't know what it is
that we want....then we can start by just being the best that
you can be at whatever it is that we are enjoying right now.
If we are confused and cannot recognize the things that bring
us joy we can start by doing those things that we used to
enjoy.
Often starting to walk or open
the smallest window into a new life is all it takes for a
multitude of opportunity to arrive.
Life is not about sitting still
and waiting it is about choosing the life that fills us with
joy and passion.
It is about motion. It is not
about how many times we fall ... it is about continually getting
up off the floor.
So start today.
