Keep Going!

Good Morning! Couldn’t decide which Facebook memory to share, so I decided to share both. The message—

Persevere and create the life you desire and deserve. Don’t stop going or creating until you’ve achieved both. Then… KEEP GOING!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

In Sync With God

Good Morning! God is working. He’s moving. Make sure you’re working and moving with Him. Keep going until you see what He said. Then, await further instructions.

That’s the message!♥️

Love you,

Celebrating Every Success

On September 3rd, I wrote (see “No More Hiding God’s Greatness”):

When was the last time you publicly celebrated your achievements? Is it something you find easy to do? Asking because I have always found it difficult, until recently. Now, I celebrate even the smallest of successes. … I mean, how can I fully represent God if I continue to downplay the magnitude of His greatness in my life? Y’all, He’s been too good to me. As I have said many times before, I am beyond blessed.

Y’all, I’m staying true to what I wrote. No more hiding what God’s doing. I also wrote in that post that back in 2016-2017 barely anyone knew I was the president of our state’s dietetics’ association. The only ones who knew were the dietitians who belonged to the organization, and some of them probably didn’t even know if they weren’t active. Don’t get me wrong, I was honored to hold the position; however, I was too humble for my own good to walk in it. Today, I realize that when you downplay your role, not only do you limit your effectiveness, but you limit your reach. You limit what God can do. Lesson learned.

Here I am today…

My first time in this position was nine years ago (2015-2016). Next year I’ll be president again. Thanking God for second chances!

Listen, when God places a dream in your heart—it will be. When I first held the position nine years ago, I felt as if I was finally walking in my purpose. I just knew that I was where I belonged, and it was only up from there. Then, life happened, and things didn’t go as expected. So, after I had served my three years (president-elect, president, and past president), I assumed that part of my life was over.

But it wasn’t…

Never in a million years did I expect to do it again. Even up until the moment I was asked if I’d consider running, the thought had never crossed my mind. However, once it was out there, I was reminded that I had said on this side of 50 I would not say “No” to things and opportunities that aligned with my purpose. And this still aligns with my purpose. So, instead of saying “No,” I said “Yes.”

Ha!! And to think I thought that part of my life was over.

Listen… DO NOT give up!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

The Little Engine

Facebook Memory: September 17, 2022

Keep moving. You’ve come too far to give up on your dreams, goals and purpose. Just because you can’t see or feel God working, doesn’t mean He isn’t. Imagine if you were to quit today and tomorrow everything was set to fall in place. Again– Keep moving!♥️

Honestly, most of the time I feel like the “Little Engine That Could”. Like I’m living on this steep hill, and although I’m moving forward, it’s a struggle and barely noticeable. One stall and I might slip. Then, I’ll have to start all over. So, I never truly stop. Nope, I keep moving. An inch here and several there, but I never stop moving. It’s little reminders like this (the gems I’ve left myself over the years) that have kept me going.

I’m not going to quit. God’s brought me too far to stop now.

I pray you’re moving in the direction of your goals and dreams, even if you’re not moving fast. Remember, God’s timing is everything. Just keep moving! Things will happen right on time.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Push

Push yourself beyond your limits. Each day push a little more. Even if it’s only an inch at a time, keep pushing. Push until you achieve your dreams and goals, then push even more. There are blessings waiting for you!

As the saying goes:

Pray

Until

Something

Happens

Then continue praying.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

You may have to endure a few twists and turns, ups, downs and failures before you experience true success. The key is to continue pressing forward. Believe me, NOTHING can stop God’s plan for your life. You are destined for greatness!

Customized Purpose

Hello! I shared the following message below in July 2021. This morning it popped up in my Facebook stories so I decided to share it.

Not only are our blessings customized, but so are our purposes. Listen, we all have our own unique purpose. I have a purpose that only I can fulfill, and same with you. I know it may feel like everyone is doing the same thing so why even bother. But do bother! Please do!! Go ahead with your ideas. God gave them to you because you have a purpose to fulfill. There are people you can reach and connect with that others cannot (learned this from watching my fav). Your unique twist may be something that clicks or resonates with someone. So, please move forward with what God has put in your heart. Believe me, someone is waiting for what you have to give.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

**Decided not to wait until the scheduled time to publish this. I feel someone can use this message right now.

Get Started

It’s funny that this message was under today’s Facebook memories because I am starting late today. Honestly, I fell asleep before I scheduled today’s first post, and when I woke up, I didn’t feel like writing. Didn’t even feel like sharing last year’s memory. Nothing’s wrong, just tired. I need a vacation. A real vacation. A vacation where I won’t need a vacation from after my vacation. Lol

Anyhoo, here’s today’s Facebook memory.

Facebook Memory: July 11, 2019

Can’t believe it’s Thursday already! Yay!! Here’s today’s social media find. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is get started. You’ll be amazed by what happens when you just make the effort to begin. Believe me, you don’t have to have every detail figured out. Starting can be as simple as picking up a pen, getting out of bed, taking that first step, etc. WHATEVER you do, don’t remain stagnant. The worse feeling in the world is to look up 10 years from now and see you’re still in the same place, contemplating starting. Get started, TODAY!

Fun fact—Before I started blogging daily, I shared “social media finds.” I guess you could say they were the stepping stones that led to Shaun’s Daily Inspiration, which is a true testament that all you have to do is get started. Can’t wait to see where it leads me next!

Even if you can only muster up enough motivation to make one step forward, make that one step. God will do the rest. Have a wonderfully blessed day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Keep Watering Your Dreams

You may become weary. You may become tired. You may even throw in the towel (but God throws it back) several times because you cannot see your seeds growing. No matter the case, do not give up. Your seeds are growing. Soon you’ll see your dreams come to fruition. Keep watering them.♥️ ~ Shaun

Facebook Memory: July 2, 2022

What good is a dream if it’s kept buried and unattended? Not much, right?

Water and nurture your dreams, then watch them grow.🌱🌸

Smile. The roots had to grow first.
