Speak What You Seek

Dr Gail Lewis

Tomorrow is almost here…it’s  another Monday, another week… We all have that moment where we wish the weekend could last longer. We think to ourselves how much we hate Mondays and all of the ish we have to deal with.  It’s easy and acceptable to complain… that’s what we do, especially on Mondays. Try something different. Take a different path, one equally visible but less traveled..  Instead of talking about your problems, talk about what you dream… your vision… your impact in the world  Once you do that, you’ll see things start to change because you are giving attention to … Continue reading Speak What You Seek

Always Learning

Dr Gail Lewis

I was reminded this morning that sometimes we get so focused on the “what” that we screw up the “how”, getting in our own way. Part of growing and building is learning and course correcting. Be open to feedback, humble enough to admit it, and agile to fix it. Networking is a challenge for most people because all we think about is getting out our message and it does the DIRECT opposite of what we intend to do or meant to do. When you start from a genuine place of love and service, your focus changes and you look for how … Continue reading Always Learning

Push Through 

Dr Gail Lewis

Whatever you do, don’t stop.  Cry, be angry, get frustrated,  feel tired.. But DO NOT stop.  Push through, trusting and believing that things are working out to and for your good. Understand, though, that sometimes that means addition by subtraction. You have to trust that if you lose something or someone in the process, the loss is making room for what really belongs. Push through. Have faith, and push through.  Continue reading Push Through

Move The Clouds

Dr Gail Lewis

The pessimist complains about the overcast day and how dark it is, making it difficult to see. The optimist hopes the clouds will clear up and the day will get better.  The leader adjusts the light. The change agent says, “Learn to move the clouds… ” – Dr Gail Lewis Clouds are moved by the wind… the wind determines their speed, direction, etc.  A victim mentality complains about the impact of the clouds. The passive-aggressive mentality hopes for the best, assumes the worst, and does nothing in the meantime. The fixer address the the issue by changing course or strategy … Continue reading Move The Clouds

Day 24: Daily Rituals

Dr Gail Lewis

Day 24:  Daily Rituals How you start your day will influence your perceptions of everything that happens.  Knowing this caused me to change how I start my day so that I began to attract more of what I want – abundance, happiness, peace, and prosperity.  Changing how I began thinking each day was a major step in shifting my mindset to one of success, personal power, and influence. Everyday I begin by focusing on gratitude that I am alive, for where I am versus where I used to be, and for what is to come. I genuinely believe that each … Continue reading Day 24: Daily Rituals

Day 23: Capacity

Dr Gail Lewis

Day 23: Capacity I have found that over the past year my capacity has changed to reflect my desire for giving, receiving, and living on a larger level.  My capacity for healing, with the loss of my Grandmother… my capacity for nurturing and unconditional love as help I others grow… Capacity is the key to expansion. You cannot ask for and expect more if you are not ready to expand your capacity to handle what comes your way.  Fear of change, failure, and the unknown will keep you trapped at a level where your capacity is so limited that you … Continue reading Day 23: Capacity

40 Days: Day 5 – Love

Dr Gail Lewis

(Instagram series @drgaillewis) Day 5: Love You are your first true love.  As you grow and evolve, learn to continually fall in love with who you will be as well as who you are. If you don’t love yourself where you are at, it will be harder to move yourself to where you want to be. Why? Because self love demands that you always want the best for you. Would you put ARCO gas in a Bugatti? Probably not, because you want only the best for the best.  You should view yourself the same way…. You should ALWAYS want the … Continue reading 40 Days: Day 5 – Love

Don’t be Afraid to Dream

Dr Gail Lewis

What ever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind will achieve. Conceive positive thoughts that are in the present tense. Instead of “I will..” say “I am…”. Connect to your preordained destiny, what has been promised over your life in the spiritual realm. Believe those positive thoughts to be true in spite of what you see, have experienced, or feel.  Your eyes and your mind will play tricks on you. Your mind will recall negative experiences to justify what your eyes think they see. Achieve those positive thoughts by consciously taking steps daily , walking on and in faith … Continue reading Don’t be Afraid to Dream
