Inspire Me

On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know...


...that what you found was meant for you to keep.



You know exactly what this means, so stop trying to

figure it out. This was not brought to you so that you

could throw it away. Or ignore it. Or pretend it is

not there.




Look at it. Grab it and look right at it. Hold onto it.

There is more there, much more, than you think.



You know exactly why you received this message

today.

This was sent to me by Neale Donald Walsh, I love his inspirational messages. This one made me think, I decided to pass it along so you could ponder what you should keep.

Namaste,

Danna

"Of all the things that can have an effect on your future,
I believe personal growth is the greatest. We can talk
about sales growth, profit growth, asset growth, but
all of this probably will not happen without personal growth."
— Jim Rohn: Author and motivational speaker


Jim is right again, we grow into success' or failures, they are not just random events, no matter the game, winning isn't luck its where preparedness meets opportunity. Failure is the same, it is where unpreparedness meets opportunity. However, failure is certainly a component of success, it is the lesson we may need to observe and ask ourselves what went wrong and how could I have a better outcome. I have failed many times, it makes me think, it gives me the opportunity to change and do it different the next time.

If you have experienced success' lately know it is because of personal growth, embrace it, and continue working on you, if you have experienced failure, observe why, don't beat yourself up, give thanks that you now know how to improve, so when the next opportunity arrives, and it will, you will be prepared and ready for the success that comes with it.

I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.

My husband Scott would love to be locked in our new wine closet:-) not sure if that would make him age better.

Training Tip of the Week:

By Clinton Anderson

Buddy sour horses.

Do you have a horse that behaves as long as he’s with his buddies, but as soon as he has to leave, he becomes hard to handle? The secret to overcoming this problem is to make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult. If you’re riding with a group of horses, use them as obstacles to trot and canter around. If your horse wants to get back to them, let him, and when he gets there, really put him to work by hustling his feet in and out and around all the other horses. Then take him 100 feet away (or less if you need a better starting point) and let him rest. Then take him back to his buddies and do the same thing. The objective is to get the horse to think that his buddies equal work. Make it hard where he wants to be and easy where you want him to be. With repetition, your horse won’t think his buddies are much fun anymore.

Great tip for parenting, make the right thing easy and the wrong thing difficult, who knew!!!

Happy Trails,

"If you go to work on your goals, your goals will go to work
on you. If you go to work on your plan, your plan will go to
work on you. Whatever good things we build end up building us."
— Jim Rohn: Author and motivational speaker

Jim is so right, I have worked myself out of and into so many different positions. Each one helping me grow towards the next fun adventure. A year ago we acquired the Park City building and put together goals for an opening, through all the process' we went through we grew into the next.

Taking risks creates growth, it builds character and also emotional muscle, the rewards are numerous and the excitement is intense. I love goal planning, I have a section in my planner where I set goals and compile steps and completion dates, when you write down your goals and add steps towards the process it is amazing how fast you will obtain them.

It works every time. Think it, write it, add action, then kaboom, your wish, your goals are obtained.

My tip this Tuesday:

Write down your goals and the steps needed to obtain them, with deadlines, nothing like a deadline to get it done.

Happy Goal Setting,

Danna

On The Road Again

Monday!!!

Where do the weeks go, we are almost to the 4th quarter of the year!

This week I am running the road between Salina and Park City trying to get the Salina house in order to sell, we built it in 1981 so of course there will dumpster loads of treasures.

28 years of accumulations, we remodeled it a couple of years ago and got rid of a lot, however we shifted way too much of it to the lower level, now we will be packing it all back up the stairs.

What do you do with sentimental stuff, antiques, family heirlooms, or as my husband calls it old shit. If its my stuff its old shit, and he has no problem if I throw it away, if its his old stereo, it can't be thrown away.

We love our new home, I am excited and a bit sad to sell our first home, we leave many wonderful memories in it and know someone else will love it as much as we did.

Happy Trails, Movin On,

Rylan Dan Crane was born 8 years ago today! Just like that I became a Grandma, Nana Danna is my self appointed name.

How blessed our family was the moment he finally made his entrance, 20 hours of labor and several hours of pushing later it was determined he was breech, emergency C section and finally we got to breath relief. Life finally came and how sweet it was, born two days after that horrible tragic day of 9-11-01. In my opinion, new life, gives hope and is the best things to overcome tragedy and death.

What an incredible young man he is, now I really do sound like a Nana! He is the hardest worker and least complaining person I have ever met. His abilities at such a young age amaze me, he being the only grandson and the oldest of our 5 grandchildren, makes him surrounded by one younger sister and 3 first cousin princess'. I feel so sorry for him when they all get together, it is remarkable how patient he is with them and their girly screaming.

Rylan, at 8 can drive a tractor all by himself, he can clean corrals, work the arena and race track. He will be a tractor driver for our barrel racing association before he is a teenager, is that legal? It is good child labor laws are not in affect in a family business.

Rylan Inspires Me, he makes me so proud, he has brought a new deepened love in my heart I never knew existed, as Scott says, it's the best job you'll ever have,(being a grandparent).

For once in 32 years, Scott, I agree:-)!

Have A Wonderful 8th Birthday Rylan, We Love You!

"Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy."

I have been a Tony Robbins fan for years, his high energy is contagious. I recommend any of his DVD's or audio books. I practice what he calls CANEI, constant and never ending improvement, that phrase has stayed with me for years. This youtube video of Tony's is outstanding, I hope you get as jazzed up from his words and energy as I do.

Dream Big

Now you might have heard the story about the businessman on vacation. He was staring at the calm blue sea thinking about lunch. A small boat laden with large yellow fin tuna docked near the pretty Mexican village. A lone fishermen jumped ashore.

“That’s a great catch,” said the tourist. “How long did it take you?” “Mmm. Not so long,” said the Mexican. “Why didn’t you stay out longer and catch more fish?” “Well, that’s enough to keep my family provided for.” “But what do you do with the rest of your time?” “Well, I sleep late, I fish a little, I play with my children, then I have lunch, take a siesta with Maria, my wife; we stroll into the village every evening. We sip wine, we play the guitar, and I play cards with! my amigos. It’s a full and rich life, señor.”

“Well, I think I can help you,” the visitor said, wrinkling his nose a little bit. “You see, I’m a Harvard MBA, and this is the advice that you’d receive at business school. You’ve got to spend more time fishing, buy yourself a bigger boat, make more money, and then perhaps several boats until you’ve got a fleet. Don’t sell your catch to a middleman; sell directly to the processor. Eventually perhaps opening your own cannery. Then you control the product, control the production, and control the distribution. You could then leave this small little town, move to Mexico City, then to L.A. and perhaps eventually to New York to run your own expanding firm.”

“But señor,” said the Mexican, “how long would this take?” “Oh, 15, 20 years.” “But what then, señor?” “Well, that’s the best part, the businessmen laughed. When the time is right, you could float on the stock market and make millions of dollars.” “Mmm. Millions you say. And what then, señor?” “Well, then you could retire and go home. Move to a pretty village by the sea. Sleep late, fish a little, play with your kids, take a siesta with your wife, stroll to the village in the evening, sip wine, and play guitar and cards with your friends.”

This made me smile, I relate!!! Some times in the need to acquire, grow, expand,and succeed we work ourselves right through life. We step over happiness, joy, and bliss, trying to find success.

It is important to dream big, but it is most important to enjoy the journey, not just look for the golden destination.

Have a Wonderful 09-09-09!!!
Happy Birthday Heidi and Mike!

"As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give
other people permission to do the same."
— Marianne Williamson: Spiritual teacher, author, lecturer

What is letting our light shine? For me it is peeling off layers of judgement, and separation, unveiling that spark, that core within all of us, most commonly known as love.

Light truly resonates from those who judge little and love much, when your in their presence you feel good, you feel their positive energy. On the other hand when we are in the presence of a negative persons vibe can zap the energy right out of you and make you feel exhausted.

Our reward or punishment is truly our own existence.

I love to be around enthusiastic fun loving people, they strengthen me, make me smile, and make my day much brighter.

I feel fortunate to have so many sunbeams in my life they shine bright upon the planet, making it a much brighter place.

Shine On,

A Mayonnaise Jar & Two Pepsi's...

When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours
in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Pepsi's.

A professor stood before his Philosophy 201 class and had some items in
front of him.

When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty
mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full.

They agreed that it was.
The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the
jar He shook the jar lightly.

The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls.

He then asked the students again if the jar was full.

They agreed it was.
The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar.

Of course, the sand filled up everything else.

He asked once more if the jar was full.

The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'
The professor then produced two Pepsi's from under the table and poured
the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space
between the sand.

The students laughed.
'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to
recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things---your family, your children,
your health, your friends and your favorite passions---and if everything
else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.
The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house
and your car.
The sand is everything else---the small stuff.

'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is
no
room for the pebbles or golf balls.

The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never
have room for the things that are important to you.
Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Spend time with your children.

Spend time with your parents.

Visit with grandparents.

Take time to get medical checkups.

Take your spouse out to dinner.

Practice "romance" as often as possible.

There will always be time to clean the house and fix the disposal.

Take care of "Mama" first---the things that really matter.

Set your priorities..

The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Pepsi
represented.

The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.'
The Pepsi just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem,
there's always room for a couple of Pepsi's with a friend.

Great Recipe for Life!

A little up date on our Harmonic Health Company. Destiny in the last few months traveled to Kentucky and Maryland working on some of the best Thoroughbred race horses in the world. Her results were so impressive that she was invited back last week to train doctors and horse trainers in the use of Acu-scope and Myo-pulse.

These instruments are a revolutionary life-changing technology that heals tissue at the cellular level and rebalances bio-electrical flow, reducing your body's time to heal by two-three times and in some cases heals chronic pain that has not healed in years.

Destiny's first interest was only in healing her own horses, she was so impressed with the results she felt everyone needed to have access to this incredible technology, so she immersed herself into learning everything she could about it, it has become her life's passion and purpose.

Destiny is certified to work on humans, horses, dogs, and is a registered instructor. Tegan her sister is a certified technician, and Scott and I will get further training in October. We have all been treated and experienced amazing results.

I have used it for my back, neck, shoulder and sciatica, a lump under my breast, and when I was bucked off and messed up my tail bone and back with a couple of treatments the pain was gone. It truly heals you three times faster!

If you would like further information about this incredible technology go to www.thorpinstitute.com. For an appointment for treatment call Destiny at 1-435-201-0500, she has a full class of students this weekend but will offer more training seminars shortly. A wonderful opportunity to help heal horses, humans, and dogs!

The aphorism, "As a man thinketh in his heart so is he," not only embraces the whole of a man's being, but is so comprehensive as to reach out to every condition and circumstance of his life. A man is literally what he thinks, his character being the complete sum of all his thoughts.

As the plant springs from, and could not be without, the seed, so every act of a man springs from the hidden seeds of thought, and could not have appeared without them. This applies equally to those acts called "spontaneous" and "unpremeditated" as to those which are deliberately executed.

James Allen's book As A Man Thinketh is saved on my favorites, I read a chapter here and there every few days, if you have read this very small book then you would probably agree with me of it's thought filled important message, if not you can download it free off the Internet, and read it for yourself. Every time I read it I get inspired to guide my thoughts towards my desires.

My tip this Tuesday, download the free book As A Man Thinketh from James Allen, it will be worth your time to read it.

Happy Thoughts,

Danna
