To fall in love and be in love are not one in the same. You can fall in love with a simple shift of the wind, but to be in love means you’re there regardless of the weather: rain, hail, sleet, snow, hurricane, tornado, a change of season, or a string of bright warm sunny days. Happy Valentine’s Day Everyone!! ~ Ty Howard

In some way, shape or form we all have it tough. Even the best dressed facade will experience moments of challenge, struggle and pain. For you to persevere through it all while others choose to give in or give up, embrace the notion that if I keep pressing and pushing through good times will be there again to greet me with open arms. Never give in! Never give up! You’re Better Than That!! ~ Ty Howard

These T.I.P.S. (Techniques, Ideas, Principles and Strategies) are for everyone—especially those who want to elevate themselves to a better and higher level in the Year 2012 than they reached in the Year 2011. Internalize, apply and practice the concepts daily, and you will elevate your life, relationships, health, finances, knowledge, family, business, and career to a better and higher level than you had before.
The T.I.P.S. listed below are not based on any intended ranked order. They are shared for you to learn and master the healthy habits of Reciprocity and Elevation in the Year 2012, so you too can soar daily to new levels of success in all areas of your life.
From my heart to yours, here are 14 Growth & Prosperity T.I.P.S. for the Year 2012. Let’s ALL move significantly forward through Reciprocity and Elevation:
results!
1) Release Those You Have Tolerated in Years Past. This is the year you say “No More!” No more will I accept or entertain those that I have tolerated. You need and want people in your life where the two of you elevate one another—not tolerate one another. Look at the relationships in your life right now (personal, family, business, career, school, and community) and identify the individuals that you’ve been tolerating in years past. Release them! You cannot and will not be able to create and live a healthy and vibrant life if you’re life is being eroded by negative and toxic people day after day. Quality, vibrant and healthy living starts and grows through Reciprocity and Elevation.
2) Evaluate and Elevate the Current State of Your Healthy Relationships. In order for your healthy relationships to stay vibrant and growing, you must make sure that all parties involved are giving just as much as they are receiving. Yes, that includes you too! The fastest way a positive and healthy relationship can turn bad or toxic is when one person begins to neglect it or becomes ‘just a taker’ in the relationship. Make it your personal commitment to evaluate and elevate all of the healthy relationships within your life. Call your people before they call you; return calls promptly; send birthday cards; send get well cards; update your people on how your life is going; share pictures; return emails; hangout when possible; and make yourself available to listen when someone needs you most.
3) Consistently Communicate Honestly and Transparently. We live in a world today that is demanding and screaming for more consistent honest and transparent communication. For Reciprocity and Elevation to sustain itself within a healthy and vibrant relationship there has to be consistent honest and transparent communication. This year make it a new healthy habit to consistently let people know how you honestly and transparently feel. Try your best to do this in a good-nature and non-hurtful way, if you can. When you consistently communicate honestly and transparently, you will increase the level of trust, respect and value you bring to all of your relationships.
4) Ignite Your Passion to Give More Than You Receive From Others. Passion is—as Passion Does! Do not allow yourself to be the person who stands back waiting and wanting others to give to you first, before you start giving; or to be the person who chooses to go ‘tit for tat’ when it comes to being a carefree giver. Ignite the passion within yourself to give more than you receive without worry or hesitation. Think positive. Think healthy. Think Reciprocity and Elevation. Margaret Cho (American comedienne, fashion designer, actress, author, and singer-songwriter) says, “If we have the opportunity to be generous with our hearts, ourselves, we have no idea of the depth and range of love’s reach.”
5) Participate in and Have More Fun in Life. It’s a fact, life is short. We cannot pre-determine our fate or how long we will live. Too many people today are over-worked, over-stressed, failing in relationships, and our “fun meters” have been turned-off or turned down real low. Participating in and having fun in life is not only for kids. It’s for you, too! This year, make it your business to stop at least twice each week to add more participation and fun to your life. A participatory and fun life becomes a vibrant, positive and healthy life! It also becomes a life that lasts longer, stays healthy, and attracts other vibrant, positive and healthy people to do fun things with.

Life is an adventure in relationships. Some good, some bad, some never ending, some ending sad, some filled with drama, some filled with healthy reward, some occasionally exciting, some brief and short; yet, the best of them are always the ones filled with constant love, care, fun memories and support. ~ Ty Howard

A better you begins on the inside, then works its way out. ~ Ty Howard
When troubling and painful times are upon us, it’s easy to throw in the towel and call it quits.
When everything is going smooth and nothing appears broken, it’s easy to not see the need for improvement and attentiveness.
When life greets us in the middle of the road with uncertainty, it’s easy to find a comfy spot to take a seat for long periods of procrastination.
The greatest challenge in life, regardless of our current circumstances—is to remain continuously alert, focused and resilient through it all. Meaning, for you to: 1) not throw in the towel when trouble and pain is here, 2) see that there is always room for improvement and attentiveness when things are going smooth, and 3) not get stuck sitting in periods of procrastination when life greets you with uncertainty.
“Why not? And why should any of this matter?” you ask.
It’s simple… There is Brilliance in Your Resilience. A better you begins on the inside, then works its way out.
If you’re currently troubled and succumbed by pain, turn on and up your Brilliance Meter. Think about your current trouble and pain, and devise a plan that can soon get you through and beyond your trouble(s) and pain. Then execute your plan with unrelenting resilience.
Difficult times are never much fun, yet, they allow us to minimize the distractions, cut out foolish behavior, learn about ourselves, and focus on what’s most important to get us through to a better position in life.
Didn’t I tell you — There is Brilliance in Your Resilience! A better you begins on the inside, then works its way out. Never see throwing in the towel and calling it quits as your final option!
If life is currently flowing smoothly for you and nothing appears broken—that is GREAT! Turn your Brilliance Meter up a little more. Think about how you’ve managed to get your life to this level and how you can sustain and improve the results. Next, devise a plan that will keep you striving for improvements and at the same time keep you alert and prepared for whatever life sends your way. Then execute your plan with unrelenting resilience.
When all is going well, it’s easy to get lulled into a sense of complacency which slows down your drive for improvement and attentiveness. This state of being also impairs your ability to see or prepare for what’s up ahead in life.
Even when the getting is good, stay tuned in to — There is Brilliance in Your Resilience. A better you begins on the inside, then works its way out. Always see and strive for improvement and attentiveness in all areas of your life!
If life currently has you sitting comfy in the middle of the road with uncertainty—Get UP! Here’s where you – TODAY – turn your Brilliance Meter back on! It’s time for you to move, and NOW! Procrastination and being in a “ripe and dying” state does not serve you well. You’re better than this! You’ve accomplished great things before! Move… you can and will do it again!
Think about what brought you to this middle of the road with uncertainty. Write everything down so you can get and see a clear picture. Next, devise a plan that will get you up and have you moving forward again, both steadily and productively. Make sure you add to your plan one or two caring friends to support you in your revitalization journey. Then execute your plan with unrelenting resilience.
In periods of uncertainty, fear and doubt… strongly believe and know — There is Brilliance in Your Resilience. A better you begins on the inside, then works its way out. Refuse to get stuck or caught in long periods of uncertainty and procrastination!
There is much to be gained when times are troubling and painful. There is even more to be gained when times are smooth and nothing appears broken. There is a lot to be gained when times are comfy in the middle of the road with uncertainty and procrastination.
Decide to persevere and grow stronger through whatever troubles, smooth living, and uncertainties that come your way. For the troubles will eventually end, the smooth living will have its ups and downs, and the uncertainties will push you to untie the knots in your life to set free a lifetime of significant living.
All of these treasures will come to and reward you when you take constant action on, celebrate, and believe in the empowering philosophy — There is Brilliance in Your Resilience!
