TRY THE “DAILY 7”
As part of our curriculum with our Band of Brothers, (and Women of Worth) we will be asking our group to build on our Universal theme of; Living, Loving, Laughing, Learning, Listening, Leading, and Leaving a Legacy. We will be asking them to come up with their own Vision, their own definition of Success, and their own “Playbook for Life” using our Four Pillars of Wisdom, Self-Mastery (The Big Me), Courage (Confidence) and Love. In order for them to become the Authentic Men, (and Women) loving husbands, fathers, and dutiful sons they desire to be, they will need to practice daily. They will need a vision that is taking them down the right path; a good and noble path of small successes (and failures to grow) leading to big successes; AND, understanding WHO they are and WHY they are here. Being curious rather than cynical.
In order to accomplish their individual and collective life goals, we felt that a “Daily 7” (Similar to the Marines’ Fitness Daily 7) would be a good start. Please feel free to use these “Daily 7” in your own life. Practice for a month and see if you don’t look at life differently. Remember, our goal in life should be to grow and prosper one day at a time. Honor the past but “Don’t dwell on or live in the past.” The past is the past and you can’t change it. Forgive, forget, and move on. “Live for today” as tomorrow is uncertain. Set your sites on things that last forever. Relationships, Love, Memories, and a promise of a new life.”
Elevator Guy Daily 7:
- What and Who am I thankful for? Having an “Attitude of Gratitude” will help grow your heart in a positive way.
- What are my priorities for today? We all have things to do. Make sure you work on your priorities first.
- Who do I Love? If you don’t have someone to love besides yourself, life can be very lonely.
- Who Loves me? Remember; someone loves you. (Think and Thank God) It is the most powerful weapon in the world.
- Who will I inspire today? Go inspire others as they just might inspire YOU.
- What actions will I take today to grow my Mind, Body, and Spirit? Balance your life so that you have enough energy to see those that you love, grow and prosper. It will be your legacy.
- What one thing will I do today that scares me or that makes me uncomfortable? There will be no growth if you get too comfortable in life.
Stay in touch as we journey through the life of our Band of Brothers and Women or Worth this year. Hint: Find yourself a mentor (to share this journey) or go mentor someone else as we all need someone in our life that can “call us out,” challenge us, and are there to pick us back up when we fall. They are called friends, brothers, or sisters.

Thought for the Day: Wayne Dyer tell us; “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
