DGC - Your Reward Is Tied To Your Consistency!

Daily Grind Classic – Your Reward Is Tied To Your Consistency! 2/28/2014

At the start of this day, let’s recognize that whatever we do regularly is what we become good at. It is time that we channel our actions toward the things that we want with a steady work ethic. I challenge you today to know that your reward is directly tied to your consistency. If you desire happiness, it is important that you consistently live life with a cheerful spirit.  On the other hand, if you spend all of your time being upset and in despair, you will reap a life of hopelessness. Today we must make a decision to fervently pursue our dreams by working hard and being consistent to the things we desire.  Part-time effort should not be an option when it comes to your fulfilling your destiny! Now is the time to be consistent, reap your reward and show the world that you are Great.

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

DGC - Full Coverage!

Daily Grind Classic – Full Coverage 2/27/2014

As we go about our business on this Thankful Thursday, let’s consider all the things that we are responsible for. We are obligated to take proactive steps to ensure that everything that is in our care is safe and secure. We should be delighted to know that this is how Our Heavenly Father feels about us. I challenge you today to be enthusiastic about your life, knowing that you are protected with full coverage. Our Heavenly Father gave us the best insurance policy in the world with his promise to never leave nor forsake us. So the question of the day is why do we continue to allow ourselves to fall into the trap of the enemy? When we think we’re all alone and we can’t make it by ourselves, stand BOLD and be reminded of this magnificent full coverage. So, live your life to the fullest without any reservations. Today we release the spirit of fear and loneliness and we stand on the promises of our DADDY. We are covered and we are GREAT!

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

…For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?” Hebrews 13:5–6

How You Going to Win If You Ain't Right Within!

DG Classic – How You GOING to WIN if You Ain’t Right WITHIN! 2/26/2014

From time to time, it is critical that we take inventory of what emotions we allow in our hearts and minds as it is a direct reflection of how we communicate. It’s really simple: if we harbor hate and ill-will in our hearts, we allow our minds to be poisoned and our speech will be as bitter as the salt water in the sea. On the other hand, if we decide to soak up love and understanding in spite of the challenges we face, we will speak with a spirit that is sweet like honey. I challenge you today to guard your hearts and minds by being conscious of what is placed in it. Think before you speak and be mindful of what you say. Make a decision right now to focus and meditate on positive thoughts so that your words will be a light that shines in darkness. Be Great!

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil. For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. Luke 6:45

Get Out The Way!

Daily Grind-Get Out The Way! 2/24/2014

At the top of this magnificent morning, let’s take a look at what’s preventing us from being our best. It is time that we rid ourselves of the excuses and take action. We must find a way to conquer the enemy within to reach our full potential.  I challenge you today to get out of your own way. We owe it to ourselves to change the way we think by believing that we are destined for amazing things. Just think of where we would be now if we removed all fear, doubt and hesitation! It is time to release the thoughts of inadequacy and uncertainty and press on in FAITH! Stop turning away from your challenges and face them head on, turning them into opportunities for GREATNESS!  Be Great!

Be Doubt Free!

Daily Grind-Be Doubt Free! 2/21/2014

Let’s finish this work week strong, recognizing that all things are possible if we only BELIEVE. At this moment we must release and remove all disbelief and skepticism from every portion of our lives. I challenge you today to be doubt free, having FAITH and BELIEVING that everything will work out in your favor. Take note that DOUBT is the strongest trick of the enemy but from this day forward, the tactics of evil won’t work because WE ARE BELIEVERS! When we remove doubt from our lives, we break the chains that have bound us and are available to receive the blessings that our Father has stored up for us. So be doubt free, walk into your destiny and Be Great!

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

And Jesus answered them, “Truly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen. ~Matthew 21:21

Daily Grind- Bought With A Price! 2/20/2014

Start today with an understanding that we are VALUABLE! Although we may be going through a rough patch of life and feel like we are at the bottom of the barrel, we must remind ourselves that we are worth all of the riches in the land. I challenge you today to celebrate that your life was bought at the ultimate price and that you are a child of the MOST HIGH KING! It is time to get off the mat and move in confidence and power. We must rejoice each day, believing that EVERYTHING we have lost will be returned to us. Our Father has all power and dominion! He is JUST and hears the plea of his children. Walk in faith, knowing that tough times are only temporary, for the battle is already WON! Walk in victory, know your royal worth and Be Great!

DG - Warning - Under Construction!

Daily Grind- WARNING – Under Construction! 2/19/2014

Allow this new day to be the start of your renovation. We all know what we desire for our lives but we want to skip past the hard work during the process. I challenge you today to embrace the fact that you are under construction and may sometimes fall short. In spite of these pitfalls, we must press forward to make progress. It is critical that we continue to inspect where we have been in order to see the development of where we are. It is time that we focus our hearts and minds on overcoming those difficult shortcomings. Being under construction should not be an excuse, but a declaration to upgrade the way we live. Once we acknowledge the flaws that hold us back, we should change the way we think, consistently working on getting better and being a model to inspire others to Be Great!

Your Best Day Yet!

Daily Grind- Your Best Day Yet! 2/18/2014

On this brand new day that we have never seen before and we will never see again, let’s exert our greatest energy to discover our highest potential. The fact that we have been granted another opportunity to get things right should be enough for us to just try. I challenge you to make today your best day yet. Yesterday is gone forever, so we shouldn’t waste time giving thoughts to a moment that we can never recapture. It is time that we get in tune with ourselves and take authority over our minds by embracing each day and making it the BEST DAY yet. We must go forth and be the light that shuts out darkness. Remember, you have what it takes to make a difference. So make today your best day yet and Be Great!

DGC -Know Your Influence! 2/17/2014

Daily Grind Classic – Know Your Influence! 2/17/2014

At the top of this great day, it is time that we identify the effect that our attitude and presence has on others. Keep in mind that with each interaction, we have the power to make or break someone’s day. I challenge you today to realize the influence that you have on others and use your powers for good. No one wants to be responsible for impacting someone in a negative way. Once we pinpoint the magnitude that our presence has on others we come in contact with, we will begin to set the standard for greatness. We can’t wait until we are being watched before we do something awesome. We have to make it a habit to be the magnetic force to influence others to BE Great!

Classic - Act Out LOVE! 2/14/2014

Daily Grind Classic - Act Out LOVE! 2/14/2014

Today is a day in which we should exercise our feelings for one another with acts of LOVE. In order for us to meet LOVE’S full potential, our hearts need to be pure and willing to please. I challenge you today to Act out LOVE by giving of yourself with a comparable sacrifice that Christ gave to us. Express LOVE with a definite expectation that our actions will speak volumes. We should show that the power of LOVE still exists and comes to life when we put it into motion. Let today launch how we act out LOVE, so that it continues throughout our journey to Be Great!

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!

James A. Bush, Jr. (The Bushinator)

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages will become useless.  But love will last forever! 1 Corinthians 4 - 8

DGC - We All Make Mistakes! 2/13/2014

Daily Grind Classic –We All Make Mistakes! 2/13/2014

While we maneuver through this life, it is important that we realize there are going to be times when we make mistakes. There is no way we can make every shot, catch every pass or get a hit every time we are up to bat. Simply put, to “err is human”. This is not to say that we should settle for less. However, when mistakes are made, our efforts should not be questioned. Perfection only comes when we reach heaven. I challenge you today to practice for perfection with the complete understanding that mistakes will happen. Many of us remain stagnant for fear of committing errors. Often times when mistakes occur, we are conditioned to find fault or place blame. Let’s encourage each other to rise above and move forward. Remember, error is not always intentional. While others cry over spilled milk, we should be grabbing the towels to clean it up. So understand that mistakes happen, search for solutions and Be Great!

Classic - It Won't Last Forever! 2/12/2014

Daily Grind Classic – It Won’t Last Forever! 2/12/2014

As we start a new day, be encouraged that the trials in life have a beginning and an end. Because we know that there is a set time, we must use those moments when we are under pressure as opportunities to build a better you. In this life, there will be storm after storm after storm but don’t fret because these are faith enhancing exercises that allow us to depend on our Heavenly Father. I challenge you today to believe and remain steadfast knowing that it won’t last forever. At this moment in our lives we might be experiencing a hurt like no other. However, in this time of despair, we must lift our heads and continue to walk through it. With one step at a time we can endure anything. If we glance back at the past, we can see where our faith was tested and we came out on the other side. It didn’t last because we didn’t quit. We are conquers and we are Great!

Be Prepared!

 DAILY GRIND – Be Prepared! 2/11/2014

Let’s use this brand new day to prepare our minds to be ready for what life has in store for us. We should be well informed in our craft and be a cut above the rest in whatever we set out to do. I challenge you today to pride yourself on being prepared for what you are responsible for. No longer should we take the stance of “oh well” as if we could care less. It is time that we step up to the plate, being ready and equipped to solve any problems we face. Once we train our minds to be prepared, we can anticipate changes and make adjustments on the fly. This will relieve some pressure on our journey to BE GREAT!

Count Your BLESSINGS!

 DAILY GRIND – Count Your Blessings! 2/7/2014

As our eyes open to a day that we’ve never seen before, let’s be grateful that we are alive and well because there is someone that 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 for us to focus on the things that we HAVE versus what we LACK so that our LIGHT can SHINE. When we concentrate on the positive things and allow our Father to handle the rest, we can experience a 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

Stick to the Script!

Daily Grind – Stick to the Script! 2/6/2014

Let’s begin this day by reflecting on all of our hard work and effort. There may be times when it feels like we're spinning our wheels, but it is important that we continue to grind, claw, dig and fight to keep going. I challenge you today to stick to the script. Great things happen when we continue to do small things repeatedly. Now is not the time to call an audible and alter all of our plans. Instead, we must press forward, knowing that it will pay off in the end. We cannot afford to let our eyes deceive us into thinking we are in despair.  We have envisioned victory in our hearts, so let’s exercise the FAITH to FINISH.  Keep doing what you are doing and BE GREAT!

Let’s begin this day with the understanding that whatever we put out in the atmosphere will appear as a reflection in our lives. It is important that we check our words and actions to ensure that we are presenting ourselves with peace and love instead of anger and discontent. I challenge you today to make your mirror image the fairest of them all. Let’s change our world by making sure that our attitudes mirror our hearts and move with the expectation that we will receive what we put out into the world. BE GREAT!

At the top of this magnificent morning, we must accept and apply the authority we have over our lives. With the opportunity of this new day, let’s work to reach our dreams and accomplish our goals. I challenge you today to simply GET UP and GO! In order to achieve what you desire in life, you must get up and go after it. Nothing will change in our lives unless we make the decision to MOVE!!! We must stop looking at our deficiencies and start focusing on our DETERMINATION to SUCCEED. Once we activate our mind to move, we will promote ourselves to the next level of discovering our PURPOSE in life. So let’s move with passion, get up and go after our dreams to BE GREAT!

Let’s start this day with a mindset to WIN. This is a fresh day with fresh opportunities and it is up to us to declare the outcome we want. I challenge you to make today SUPER! We were built with the fortitude to go farther and reach higher so we must not allow ourselves to be crippled with excuses or frozen with fear of the unknown. It is time to take back our POWER and use our momentum to achieve our personal goals. Once we allow our Heavenly Father to add his SUPER to our NATURAL, we will be able to accomplish anything! Be Super and BE GREAT!
