Daily Dose of Inspiration - Ralph Marston

We’ve got a long list of motivators here at The Nest (that would be our Thankfulfor team headquarters) and one of them is Ralph Marston. He’s just one of those special people who can communicate a thought - maybe an idea you’ve even heard before - in a way that makes you sit up and take notice. I first started following him on Twitter and then noticed his quotes on other people’s blogs. Here is todays message:

Is there something outside of you that’s troubling you? The distress you’re feeling is not from the thing itself.

The distress you experience is from what you think of it and the way you feel about it. You can change that in an instant.

You can change what you fear into what you eagerly anticipate. You can change a burdensome problem into a magnificent opportunity.

The vast majority of all that happens in this enormous universe is out of your control. And yet with every bit of it, you can control what it means to you.

Do you fully realize how much power that gives you? Do you understand the unlimited nature of what you can do with whatever you have?

Just by the way you choose to accept and to make use of reality, you can bend that reality to empower your own unique purpose. See what is, accept what is, and use it to achieve your finest dreams.

— Ralph Marston


You can enjoy his daily motivations on his site, GreatDay.com, or sent to your email inbox or via Twitter. Mr. Marston also has a few books - one of them is called The Daily Motivator To Go and is perfect for a quick dose of inspiration. I also love him because he’s all about convenience! If you’re more likely to check out your phone than a book or  email, he’s got you covered. Just visit greatday.com/iphone or greatday.com/mob.

What are your favorite sites or who do you follow on Twitter for inspiration?  We’d love to know so post them in the comments please.
