Classic


Daily Grind CLASSIC – Turn UP the Intensity!  10/30/2014

 Let’s start this day off with a powerful PUNCH. We must get a jump start on what lies ahead. It is time that we stop waiting for the fight to overtake us and lace up our boxing gloves to bring the fight to our individual lives. One way that we can gain an advantage, is to strike first and strike hard. I challenge you today to turn up the INTENSITY in your life, realizing that you and only you have the POWER to change your OUTCOME!  Stop depending on others to throw you a life line.  Instead, get focused and turn up the HEAT in the areas you want to see change. Be reminded that nothing will happen unless you make the first move. So why not turn up the INTENSITY, get serious about results and Be Great!

CLASSIC - Count YOUR Blessings! 10/24/2014

DAILY GRIND CLASSIC – Count YOUR Blessings! 10/24/2014
 
As our eyes open on a day that we have never seen before, let’s be grateful that we are alive and well, because somebody did not make it through the night. We may not be in the right position or have all the desires of our hearts; but we should be thankful that we have another chance to get it right. I challenge you today to COUNT your BLESSINGS. It is time that we focus on the things that we have versus the lack there of, so that our light can shine. When we concentrate on the positive things, and allow our Father to handle the rest, we can experience that PEACE that surpasses all understanding. So today, be Grateful to Be BE GREAT!  
James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)
Count your blessings. Once you realize how valuable you are and how much you have going for you, the smiles will return, the sun will break out, the music will play, and you will finally be able to move forward the life that God intended for you with grace, strength, courage, and confidence. ~Og Mandino quotes

DGC - Dare To Be Different!


Daily Grind Classic – Dare To Be Different! 10/22/2014

 As we begin this morning, let’s adjust our thinking and strive to be the exception and not the rule. Whatever we put our hands on and place our energy into should manifest into something that is a cut above the rest. I challenge you today to dare to be different. In this world of copycats and imitators, we must be like the cream in coffee and rise to the top. When we dare to be different, it simply means being our authentic and true self. There is no need to add any make-up or extensions to your hair to look your best. Nor do you need to beef up or lose weight to be seen as perfect in the eyes of others. Take note that YOU are BEAUTIFUL and made perfectly in our Father’s image. Once YOU look in the mirror and love who YOU are without any modifications, you dare to be different and wherever you go you will BE GREAT!

 James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

 Dare to be different, embrace the divine being you are. Applaud yourself, laugh, sing, dance, move, live love. ~Unknown

DGC - Time For a Change! 10/21/2014


Daily Grind Classic – Time For a Change! 10/21/2014

 On this magnificent day, we should be in a spirit of expectation. It is time that we examine our formula for getting what we desire and take a different approach. We must be wise in our planning, understanding that through every situation we face it is critical that we are able to modify our plans to receive the best possible results. I challenge you today to recognize that if we continue with the same actions, we will get the same outcomes. However, when we perform new actions, we will receive new outcomes. Simply put, it is time for a change. It is foolish to wait on life to adapt to our needs. Instead, we must find a way to shift our thought process by being creative and flexible to experience the best that life has to offer. So on this day, start your change and Be Great!

CLASSIC - Keep Your Dreams Alive! 10/17/2014

DAILY GRIND CLASSIC– KEEP YOUR DREAMS ALIVE!  10/17/2014
At the onset of this beautiful day, let’s continue to pursue the passion that is in our hearts. Regardless of what we see at the present moment, we must work diligently to create what we have envisioned. I challenge you today to keep your dreams alive. It is time for us to let go of the excuses that continue to hold us back so we can pursue our aspirations and ideas. From this point forward, we should think of ourselves as “master creators” and walk in that designation to achieve our goals. For us to keep our dreams alive, we must commit to working on them consistently. When we make the time, the resources will appear. Keep believing in your dreams, work to bring them to life and BE GREAT!

DGC - Happy to Be You!


Daily Grind Classic – Happy to Be You! 10/15/2014

Today we begin a new path to greatness by exercising our authority to exalt and celebrate ourselves. We must embrace these moments and enjoy the authenticity of our make-up. I challenge you today to concentrate on being happy to be YOU! Be reminded that WE ARE IN CONTROL of our personal happiness. Therefore, we must inspect, and eliminate, those we have allowed to compromise our joyous state. Show off your positive attributes, accept the things you need to work on, and choose to be HAPPY. When we are happy within, the love we have will shine out to the world. BE Great!

Daily Grind Classic – Better Than the Day Before! 10/14/2014

 With the start of this great day, let’s strive to improve our level of living one day at a time. Yesterday is gone and the past cannot be recaptured, so it is imperative that we focus on the right here and right now. I challenge you to be better today than you were the day before. Keep in mind that whatever we practice consistently will eventually become our daily routine. It is time that we channel our actions to extend past what we gave the day before. If we repeatedly commit to this exercise, we will be amazed by the progress we can make in a short period of time. Move forward into your destiny by taking daily steps of progress, understanding that you are molding yourself to not only to be better, but to Be Great!

DGC - Leaders LEAD!


Daily Grind Classic – Leaders LEAD! 10/8/2014

 On this fantastic day, let’s take up our rightful place and use our positive spirit and attitude to spark change in others. It is time that we broaden our shoulders and set an example with our actions, showing our fellow man a different way to live. I challenge you today to be a leader that LEADS. As leaders, we are sometimes obligated to make tough decisions that may cause us to be isolated and feel alone. However, in these moments of isolation we must be strong enough to remember our calling and continuously look for ways to improve our leadership qualities. Simply put, we should never be stagnated in our thinking. With every decision we make, it is imperative that we get better, consider others and consistently examples to BE GREAT!

DGC - Why Not You?


Daily Grind Classic – Why Not You? 10/7/2014

 We are all programmed for greatness. However, there are times when we should be on the mountaintop but find ourselves in the valley. In this very moment, we all ask the question “Why Me?” You say and do all of the right things and still face adversity and disappointment. Today, I pose the question, WHY NOT YOU? In order to build muscle and gain strength, you've got to go through some resistance to see results. Similarly, in times of tribulation, God is taking you through a storm to build your faith and trust in him so you have a testimony to share with others of HIS results. Instead of looking for pity, think about what you can share as your triumph from this test. We often fall deeper into the valley by not fighting our way to the top. In order to change your circumstance, you must first change your mind set. Remember, the greater the problem, the greater the blessing! I challenge you on this beautiful day to start thinking differently about your valley experiences. Instead of asking WHY ME, know that the SON is preparing you for VICTORY and declare WHY NOT ME. The man that is standing on top of the mountain didn’t start there. Change our mindset and Be Great.

Daily Grind Classic– Making Better Decisions! 10/6/2014
Let’s use this day as a fresh start to improving our lives. With one choice, we can set in motion a change that can propel us into another dimension. I challenge you today to start making better decisions right now. Our Heavenly Father has blessed us with a powerful mind that can accomplish anything. We should examine our past decisions and determine the ones that gave us an advantage as well as the ones that caused us grief. It is vital that we take the time to analyze the steps it will take for us to get better. Once we discover the formula for success, we should duplicate it and Be Great!

DGC - The Company You Keep!


Daily Grind Classic – The Company You Keep! 10/1/2014

Let’s start this day by positioning ourselves to reach our full potential. It is time that we look at our surroundings to analyze who we interact with on a daily basis. If we associate ourselves with Debbie Downers and Dejected Daniels, their attitudes will likely rub off on us. I challenge you today to be aware of the company that you keep. We must be mindful of the people that we gravitate to in our pursuit of happiness. In order for us to build a successful brand, it is important that we surround ourselves with effective, energetic and successful people that will educate, motivate and challenge us to reach our goals. Get in position, check the company you keep and Be Great!

DGC - Something For Nothing!


 DAILY GRIND Classic – Something For Nothing!  9/30/2014

With the start of this brand new day, let’s take a closer look at our inner selves to clearly identify what we want out of life. Whatever we desire should require complete dedication and effort. Often times we find ourselves feeling entitled to receive the benefits without putting in the work. I challenge you today to recognize that you can’t get something for nothing. There are no hand-outs!  If we are committed to the work that we do, we will reap the rewards of our labor. Keep in mind that without any deposits, there are no returns! When we receive the blessing of a new day, we are obligated to give it our very best. The effort that you put into your daily living should be exhibited through the attitudes we display. Put forth the effort and Be Great!

Daily Grind Classic – Speak It Into Existence! 9/29/2014

 Start this fresh day aligning your thoughts and your tongue for victory. With every word that comes out of our mouths, we should be committed to edify our situation. We can’t look at our present circumstances as the permanent outcome. We have to develop the faith to see a brighter future. I challenge you today to speak your desires into existence and believe that it can happen for you. This is not the time to look to others for advice or to allow them to justify your vision. We must look UP and WITHIN to see things as though they were and have the FAITH to speak them into existence. Ultimately, we become what we speak! So repeat after me: “At this very moment, I walk in the majestic blessings of our Lord. I speak life into every dead situation. My God leads me to my DESTINY because I AM GREAT!”

Daily Grind – Shine Bright with Confidence! 9/25/2014

 This is your day to separate yourself from others. Your actions will show that you are above average and deserve the very best. It is time that we exhibit an assertive attitude that will set the tone for our legacy. I challenge you today to shine bright with confidence. We should display a self-assurance that exceeds the norm. In this moment, we are at the threshold of a breakthrough and cannot sit back and squander our opportunity. Go and get what’s rightfully yours. Remember that you are exactly what you believe you are! So believe that you are worthy, shine bright with confidence and Be Great!

Discover Your Strengths!


DAILY GRIND – Discover Your Strengths!  9/24/2014

 At the start of this Hump Day, let’s stare into the mirror to validate what we are made of. It should be understood that the test of who we really are, does not come in times of comfort and convenience but during the moments of pressure and pain. I challenge you today to be encouraged when you are going through because you will discover your strengths during this time of trials and tribulations. They say what doesn't kill you make you stronger, so if that is the case, it is up to us to turn things around once we realize that we are not DEAD! It may have hurt us but, WE ARE STILL HERE! So, get up and get out of that rut. You are stronger than you think you are. You took the enemy’s best shot and made it through. From this day forward, we are fortified in WHO WE ARE, and must continue to discover the strengths that allows us the advantage to BE GREAT!

Daily Grind Classic – Meet It Head On! 9/22/2014

At the top of this fantastic morning, our focus should be on facing our obstacles in an attempt to overcome them. When problems come into our lives, we tend to put them on the back burner as if they will magically disappear. I challenge you today to meet your problems head on with a determination to conquer them. Keep in mind that if we fail to address our situations, they usually become more difficult to handle. Today we must boldly stand toe to toe with our circumstances. Despite of our fears, we can rise to the occasion with the confidence to overcome them or work them out. Once we display the courage to face our challenges, we show the world that we are Great!

DGC - Old Things Are Passed Away!


Daily Grind Classic – Old Things Are Passed Away! 9/19/2014

 At 12:00am this morning, we started a new day. Whatever happened yesterday is gone and we can’t do anything about it. It is important that we shed parts of our old selves and move forward. With this fresh opportunity, let’s center our thoughts on living life to the fullest. I challenge you today to be reminded of the promise by our Heavenly Father that old things are passed away and we are made new. We no longer need to live our life with regrets and what ifs because the SON has offered us the privilege to start again and make the necessary changes to fulfill our purpose.  It is critical to note that while we should not live in the past, we should remember the lessons from our trails so we don’t make the same mistakes.  When we move forward from our previous failures and heart breaks, we open the doors for a much brighter future.  So let go of the past, look to your destiny and Be Great!

Daily Grind Classic – Keep Your Bags Packed! 9/18/2014

 There are times when we clearly recognize that we are in bad relationships, stale careers or unfulfilling lifestyles because we’ve settled for less. Unfortunately, we have become so content in our situations that the idea of change petrifies us. As a result, we find reasons to remain stationary. Today I challenge you to get uncomfortable and start moving. Our FATHER does not intend for a temporary situation to feel permanent, so when the SON tells you to move, get your things and go! It is imperative that we keep ourselves open to where the SPIRIT leads us. It is with our obedience that we will see our true potential and receive our greatest blessings. Keep your bags packed; follow God’s plan and Be Great!

 James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

 With this new day, our minds must be focused and filled with expectancy. When we channel our thoughts on positive things, we have the ability to change our destiny with what we say. I challenge you today to speak victory from your present state. Be reminded that the words that we speak carry the breakthrough that we seek. Today let’s begin to express ourselves optimistically in every situation we face. It’s time to realize that we own the power to change our circumstances and when we put words of life into the air, it shifts the atmosphere and paves that way to our victory. Think it, Speak it, Do it and Be Great!

DGC - This Is Not How the Story Ends!


 DAILY GRIND Classic- This Is Not How the Story Ends!  9/16/2014

Let’s start this day with a renewed passion and energy, reminded that this is another opportunity for us to make things right. As we look over our present situations, we must be careful not to place permanent thoughts to where we’ve been or where we are. Just because we find ourselves in positions that are not favorable, does not mean we can’t rejoice. I challenge you today to be optimistic that although you have been in the same storm for quite some time, this is not how your story ends! There is another chapter in this book and the sequel that follows. So, at this moment, we must stop looking down and feeling defeated. Instead, let’s lift our heads and concentrate on the bright “SON” to develop the determination needed to push forward and make a difference. Remember that the price for an abundant life has already been paid and regardless of the conditions we find ourselves in, we are FREE to walk in our VICTORY!  BE GREAT!

DGC - Live Up To Your Potential!



Daily Grind Classic – Live Up To Your Potential! 9/15/14

Each day the sun rises, we are given another opportunity to raise our level of living. It is up to us as individuals to center our attention on the life we WANT to live and not the life we HAVE. I challenge you today to live up to your potential by striving to be great in everything you do. We all have something that we need to work on or make adjustments to in order to get better. It’s not what we see that becomes our potential; it’s what we can’t see. If we make a decision to go beyond our limits in all that we do, the world will be ours and everything that’s in it. Let’s take personal inventory of ourselves and weed out all the things that delay us in reaching our goals. When we fully recognize our potential, we will transcend ourselves into a dimension we could have only dreamed of before. We must be so focused that each step we take will lead us closer to our destiny. Stop procrastinating and let’s live up to our ultimate potential by Being Great.

At the start of this day, let’s exercise our faith with the spirit of expectancy. We should live our lives with an assurance that our circumstances are changing for the better and begin to live in our abundant overflow. Today, I challenge you to declare that for the rest of your life, you will walk in INCREASE! With each step we take, let’s display the conviction of the supernatural favor our Heavenly Father pours into us. With His presence in our lives, how can we falter? We must be bold in our faith by leaving our struggles behind. Let’s start believing in the promises that have been placed on our lives, walk faithfully into our destiny of INCREASE and Be GREAT!

With the start of this brand new day, let’s search our souls to acknowledge the things in our past that have held us back. We must place all of our hurt and disappointments into a bottomless pit, never to be seen again. I challenge you today to finally release the past. We are now experiencing new grace and mercy and we can’t afford to miss out on what God has in store because we are focusing on what has been. Let the past be the past! Remember that no one is perfect and we all fall short of God’s magnificent glory. Be encouraged that we hold the key to unchain our past and open the door to our destiny. Regardless of what you have been through, know that you can bounce back and capture your dreams. Release the past; make it history, and Be GREAT!

Although we live in a world of disruption and uncertainty, we are called to provide stability in an unstable environment. I challenge you today to promote peace wherever your path leads you. Everyone is in search of answers to their own individual circumstances. We should work to be a part of their solution by offering the spirit of peace that comforts in times of turmoil. When we set out to deliver peace, we ultimately shift the atmosphere and offer a sense of hope to someone who otherwise felt hopeless. Keep in mind that our primary mission is to bring light to darkness and this foundation begins with peace. So go forth, promote peace and Be GREAT!

Instead, we will manifest the fortitude needed to LEAD the pack. I challenge you today to make your comeback by using your positive energy and work ethic to bring you back to your rightful place - ON TOP! We can’t continue to place all of our thoughts on "we can’t", "it’s too difficult", or "it will take too long". We owe it to ourselves to rise above any excuses with a champion’s mentality to comeback. So, start your new winning streak today, make your comeback and BE GREAT!

Start this day with an anticipation of expecting more. Open your minds and hearts for your desired results. Things may have seen bleak on yesterday but what a difference 24 hours makes.

You have been preparing for this life changing moment and it is approaching. Be mindful that your attitude should match your expectations. So be ecstatic, confident, and grateful.

Classic - Show That You Care! 9/5/2014

Daily Grind Classic– Show That You Care! 9/5/2014
On this great morning, let’s allow our actions to create an environment of understanding and respect. We possess the power to illustrate to those around us that they matter. I challenge you today to show that you care. Everywhere we look, we can find someone being mistreated or cut down by another person’s words. We are obligated to be the catalyst for change by expressing a spirit of care and concern to those we come in. Somebody may be at the end of their rope but if we show that we care, we can extend their hope. Go Forth and Be Great!
James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)
Beginning today, treat everyone you meet as if they were going to be dead by midnight. Extend to them all the care, kindness and understanding you can muster, and do it with no thought of any reward. Your life will never be the same again. ~Og Mandino

DGC - Never Compromise Who You Are!


Daily Grind Classic – Never Compromise Who You Are! 9/4/2014

 On this Terrific Thursday, we must remind ourselves of who we truly are. It is time to stop playing roles by portraying or mimicking others just to fit their way of thinking. Today we are obligated to let our individual light shine by being transparent and comfortable with ourselves. I challenge you today to never compromise who you are for the sake of someone else. If there are people in our inner circle that don’t accept our morals and convictions, we must politely, and swiftly, remove them out of our lives. Keep in mind that whenever you are trying to better yourself or move to the next level, there will always be individuals that try to stunt your growth with words and actions that challenge your being. Don’t be discouraged by the tricks of the enemy. Stand firm on your foundation as a child of the FATHER press forward knowing that you are GREAT!

 James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

 Stand for what's right, even if that means standing alone. Never compromise your standards and values! ~Unknown

DGC - You Are Beautiful! 9/3/2014


Daily Grind Classic – You Are BEAUTIFUL! 9/3/2014

 Let’s gracefully start this day, thanking our Heavenly Father for creating us in His own image. You were tailor made and uniquely designed to be YOU! There is no need to make-up your face, extend or process your hair, or operate on your body just to get a different look. I challenge you today to know, without a doubt, that YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL! We must not be fooled by the images that we see in the media or what’s going on around us.  Instead, we must focus on our personal CHARACTER and BEHAVIOR to realize the true meaning of BEAUTY. We will quickly discover that while outer beauty is fleeting, what’s in your HEART lasts forever and that is what truly matters. So on this day, examine what’s inside of you. If there is anything that is keeping you from your ultimate Beauty, get rid of it and BE GREAT!

I’ve never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful. ~Unknown

DGC - Stop Digging!


Daily Grind Classic – Stop Digging!  9/2/2014

Let’s allow today to be the start of our comeback. It is imperative that we analyze our situation and focus on addressing the problems that are before us. In order for us to recover we can’t continue to exhibit the same behavior that caused our current circumstances. I challenge you today to stop digging. Rather than going deeper down the path of destruction, we must develop a plan to recuperate. There is no need to get discouraged; our present condition is only temporary. Just because we have been knocked down, doesn’t mean we have to stay there. So stopping digging, look forward to the future and Be Great!

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

It is a good thing to follow the First Law of Holes: if you are in one, stop digging. ~Denis Healey
