Kiwi Earthquake Survivors Need Your Help

Motivational Radio launches international aid campaign for earthquake survivors and families. Details to be announced During the premier of the Dream Big Revolution™ at 6 pm EST Friday, March 4.

CHRISTCHURCH, NZ, Feb. 24, 2011. A national state of emergency was declared after a massive 6.3 magnitude earthquake pounded the city of Christchurch, New Zealand. The ground is still shaking from hundreds of devastating aftershocks as reports of more than 100 people have been declared dead and hundreds more are missing. Reports from the area show buildings piled on top of people, bodies lying in the streets, no essential services – including no water, power or sewer service, and terrifying videos of injured people scrambling to avoid falling debris from damaged buildings. All of this follows a devastating 7.1 quake last September and its more than 3000 after-shocks.

Why should we care about a tiny country so far away from the rest of the world? We have our own problems!

The answer is: disaster can happen anywhere. The painful memories of New Orleans, Haiti and Indonesia still burn in our minds. The next disaster could happen in your own back yard. If we don’t care, who will!

The real question is how can we help?

The highly popular Motivational Radio, headquartered in Christchurch, New Zealand, is launching a coordinated appeal to raise money and aid to help the victims of this terrible tragedy. Listen in to motivational radio to hear how you can help make a difference in the lives of the survivors! The Dream Big Revolution™ hosted by LeAnn Hilgers, will be launching its Motivational Radio syndication, premiering on Friday, March 4 at 6 pm EST/12 noon March 5 New Zealand time, with an interview with Motivational Radio’s founder, Anthony Hosking, to discuss how help can be provided. Anthony will relive the events for listeners telling us first-hand what it is like to be living in the middle of a national disaster. Celebrity guests will rally their support.

“There is nothing we love more than helping other people,” claims Hilgers, “After living in New Zealand for two years, I think of it as another home. New Zealand has a special place in my heart - in all of our hearts, and we need to stand together and show the good people of Christchurch we do not forget the fallen!”

What Tomorrow Brings!

What Tomorrow Brings!

At the dawn of a new year, I often wonder what the new year will bring. This year, as with every year, I am hopeful for good times, prosperity and success. Will the new year bring adventure? Will it bring peace?

Last year was a very difficult year for many people. For many, it was a year of changes, challenges, transitions, coping and financial difficulties. Difficulties force us to re-evaluate, to become more efficient and effective. Many of us have had to re-group and re-focus. Re-inventing ourselves is often a tiresome, stressful process - after all, birth is painful and messy but often results in joys we could not have previously imagined. I truly believe we have found the “bottom” of the recession, if we continue to look towards a great future.

Many experts advise us to be grateful, however, sometimes when we are going through difficult times, it is especially difficult to be grateful. The best way to heal from a situation is to balance the difficulties with the "affirmative." For example, gratitude heals resentment; hope heals despair; pride heals defeat; dignity heals misdeeds; and confidence and courage heals rejection and fear.

All of these mindsets can be chosen.

Many entrepreneurs are “born” out of difficult financial times. People who find themselves out of work, for example, might feel forced to start a business and soon they find running a business is the most difficult, yet rewarding undertaking they have faced. You may also find yourself faced with a monumental challenge, disguised as the opportunity to create the life of your dreams. Big decisions are accompanied by independence and opportunity to chase new directions.

There are many things we cannot control in this world. We can, however, control how we let events affect our life. How we bring things into our own private world and keep events in our world is our own choice. We may not be able to control much of what happened the past few months, or events outside of us but, how the events are integrated into our life, used, defined and resolved are very much within our control.

How can we ensure this new year will bring the good things we want from life?
How can we ensure joy, inspiration and passion for ourselves?

Last year, many of us were consumed with crisis. We were plagued with questions like: How will we feed our families? Can I find extra work to pay my mortgage? How will I cope with my family problems? While we were busy feeding the goose that lays the proverbial golden egg, we lost sight of the actual golden egg.

Fundamental life questions were set aside while we took care of the sometimes harsh realities of life.

What do I want?
What makes me happy?
What is my dream career?
Why am I on this earth? (i.e., what is my purpose, reason for being, mission?)

Most importantly,
Do my actions support the answers to these fundamental questions?

Recently, I was reminded of something I used to say, “I’m so fortunate, I get to do _________, today.” Fill your day, with the completed version of this statement and “taking care of the realities of life,” will start taking care of themselves. Work is not really “work” when it is inspired and passionate.

As the new year dawns, cure the past gratitude, hope, pride, dignity, confidence and courage.
Then ask yourself,
what will I bring to this new year?

Have a truly happy, new year!

LeAnn Hilgers Motivational Minute™ Holiday Weight Management: Surviving the Feasting Season!

Do you have just one minute to hear how you can avoid weight gain during the holiday season?

During the holiday season we can be surrounded by tasty treats and indulgences. The holidays can also be a busy, stressful and emotional time which can leave us feeling exhausted and can distract us from our normal healthy diet and exercise routine.

Hear are some tips to avoid holiday weight gain:

1. Be conscious of what you eat and how much. Serve yourself or ask for small servings. Eat slowly and savour the holiday flavours.

2. Adopt a Defensive attitude - think of yourself not only as a person who is trying to loose weight or someone trying to be healthy and avoid junk. Be prepared to politely turn down food, make statements like, “oh it looks wonderful, you must have worked so hard to prepare this, but I am so full right now,”

3. Plan in Advance.
Eat a little before you go to a holiday gathering; hunger can undo the best intentions.
Stay away from sources of temptation. Keep treats out of reach and avoid rooms filled with tempting

The best thing you can do is try to stick to your normal schedule and routine. While managing the stress and business of the season, people tend to sacrifice their routines – especially exercise and healthy diet choices. Stay active. Look for opportunities to exercise and bring healthy, portable snacks with you.

But most importantly, have a safe and happy holiday season!

Weight Loss - LeAnn Hilgers Motivational Minute™

Do you have just one minute to find out how you can manage your weight and health?

How can you find the motivation to start and exercise program?
Exercising can help us manage our weight, improve our health, and increase our energy, vitality and sense of well-being. Taking a few minutes to exercise every day can help improve our performance in every area of our life.

Here are 3 tips to help you get motivated to exercise:
1. Do something you enjoy! The more fun you are having the more you are likely to exercise. If you find certain forms of exercise boring, do them in front of the tv, while listening to music or while reading a book (if possible).
2. Keep it social! Exercise with buddies. If you have made a commitment to others, you are more likely to start and stick with it.
3. This is your time! We often look for some personal time and time to take care of ourselves. This is your time! Turn off your phone/pager/work and just enjoy.
After you are finished exercising, take stock of how good you are feeling. This will help you remember why, you are exercising and all of the benefits your are reaping!

Ghost Motivational MinuteTM

Do you have just one minute to find out how you can help your child overcome fear?

Many small children are afraid of the dark. It is a very difficult challenge to convince them there is nothing to be afraid of, or are not ghosts or “bad” things in the dark when they hear about it from friends, see it on tv and movies.

A fear of the dark can be very debilitating to a young child! Until your child is old enough to discuss their fears and rationalize them away, here are 3 tips to help empower them:

1. Let them tell you what they are afraid of - in their own words, and listen without minimizing. Acknowledge their fears. They are very real to your child!
2. Empower them! Ask them to imagine themselves in a situation where they have power over what they fear. For example, on your cartoon, your favourite character sprayed the bad guy with goo. Pretend you are spraying the ghost with goo to make it go away. Laughing at something is very empowering.
3. Buy some “Anti-Ghost Spray”! Where do you buy ghost spray? Any store! Put a picture of a ghost over the label of a bottle of perfume or air freshener. Empower your child by letting them spray the Anti-Ghost Spray and say “Get Lost Ghost!

Whenever they smell the spray, they know they are ghost free. You may want to remind them it is very powerful so they don’t spray an overwhelming amount.

BTW, Anti-Ghost Spray can also work as Anti Monster, Anti BoogieMan and Anti Zombi spray!

Free Your Creative Genius!

Do you have just one minute to hear how you can improve you life and work?

Do you have a creative side? Is there a imaginative part of you which is inspired to express itself?

Everyone is creative and imaginative in their own way. Stifling your creativity can make you feel lethargic, depressed and unmotivated. It can drain the energy from other areas of your life.

Here are 3 ways you can begin to expand your creativity:
1. Try something new – take a different way home from work, try new food, prepare a new food dish, go for a walk in nature, take up a new hobby,
2. Try a new hobby which requires you to express yourself, such as , singing, painting or acting.
3. When working or doing everyday chores think of different ways of accomplishing tasks, either better or in a more fun way.
By expressing your creativity you can put a valve on stress, increase your problem solving abilities, practice mental gymnastics and inspire more happiness in to your life. The point of creativity is to have fun and be inspired!
