I got to thinking about BIG Thinkers that are all around us, and what they accomplish in every day life. These seemingly extraordinary heroes are doing amazing things, and some of them are regular people, not flashy guru types, or leaders, type A personalities etc.
They are mothers with children who run businesses out of their homes that make crazy money supporting their husbands who got laid off, or fathers who lead scout troops for their church and create amazing fundraisers that pull off miracles to fund.
They are grandmothers who are ageless go-getters who inspire everyone around them with the energizer bunny style they serve their community, help people and take care of their family.
The firefighters, brilliant artists, naturopathic doctors, breakthrough scientists, direct sales people, nutritionists, triathletes, teachers, parents, children, and on and on that go the extra mile to give their HEARTS to LIFE, and unconditionally serve the world for good…these are the extra-ordinary people you know that have made a difference in your life.
What do they all have in common? I would say one common thread is that they are all BIG Thinkers. These people do not believe in boundries, social norms, status quo, inside the box, just enough, up to the line, and mediocre results.
To Big Thinkers …ANYTHING is possible!
Give us a challenge and we say HOW BIG? Why Not? Let’s Go!!
Who you know that is like this?
What results have they created?
What do you admire most about them?
What do they contribute every day that’s above and beyond?
How has it impacted your life?
How has it impacted others?
What have you learned that you could do differently in your own life from this great individual?
If you could feature or highlight this person in some way, would you like to do that?
Did you answer each of these questions? If not go back, and take the time to answer each one.
If you are inspired by such a person..They are YOUR MIRROR.
You can only see THOSE QUALITIES in others THAT EXIST IN YOU!!
Show me an Extraordinary Life…and I will show you a very BIG Thinker!
Namaste!
If you know someone who is an extraordinary individual ..
and you’d like me to feature them on my blog..please email me

Not only do Big Thinkers think big, they also take action.
Peter Fuller MBA recently posted..What You Are Doing Today Will Affect Your Retirement Freedom
They certainly do Peter..Not much would exist without action!
Big thinkers focus on success and are not deterred by failure, Laura.
That’s what keeps them always moving forward and, as you suggest, keeps them in a uniquely creative space that has no boundaries.

Yes that right..David. I always say “failure is not an option”!
Hi Laura:
I really love the picture up top. It’s one of my favorites. I’m sure that’s what my orange kitty sees when he looks in the mirror. One day, a dog came to the door, and Buddy chased it away. Because he saw himself as a lion, the dog believed it, too!
Your salute to ordinary people who do extraordinary things is spot on. Our society gets so caught up with celebrities who do nothing (can someone remind me what exactly the Kardashians have done??) that it’s good to salute those who are working to do something of substance. I love that new Best Buy commercial where we get to see all the people who invented amazing things, like the phone camera.
I used to be unstoppable until I got fibromyalgia, but I’m still mighty with a telephone and computer. Thanks for remind me that I am still a BIG THINKER, even though sometimes my body tells me to just give up and go to bed. Thanks for sharing.
All the best,
Leslie
You betcha!! I have fibromayalgia too, and can relate so well to how you feel. It’s our marvelous minds that we can rely on right? Thank goodness!!! That’s a hoot what you said about the Kardashians!! I agree!!
Laura,
You bring tears to my tired eyes this early morning. I can think of unlimited Big Thinkers who inspire and have shaped my lifestyle of service to others.
My Grand Parents who are now ascended. My Mother who still serves others after over 50 years of educational service. My Elders in the Amis, bloodline who kept family value and lifetime servant-hood within our hearts and beings. All never went with the norm or listened to doubtful speakers. Creativity can be manifested in all yet must have a strong faith that is unyielding and that is what each Big Thinker would tell you. Visualize and all will manifest if you have faith.
So, many more and everyone who cares and serves loved ones with disabilities. I have given up a 10 year career to care for my wife of 18 years and still growing. People said now way could you take care of her see needs to be placed with professionals. You can’t afford it with no job. Wrong, doing it and have a lifestyle in abundance. We do only what makes us feel good which is our passion. Supporting others with all our hearts and never accept anything in return. That is Huge and an honor to empower others with daily adventurous activity different from the norm.
I give lots of love to you Laura, for empowering everyone to become a Big Thinker.
There are no limitations other than in your minds. Once you allow doubt to get into your thoughts. That is when you limit yourself with fear which is the mind destroyer. Focus on you and stop looking at what others believe is acceptable. You determine what can be done, which is everything.
Hats off to you Laura for being an inspirational coach in our industry. I have been here today and will remain a continued supporter. Loving being empowered and all the positive usable content being shared. Your unique and valued. Thanks.

Laura,
Beautiful website! I really love your THINKING!
Nancy, bless you, gorgeous friend. We have had quite a few conversations on big thoughts and helping others.
I am smiling from ear to ear, to be honored by you today! We are all mirrors in our greatness, and what we see in another that we find to be beautiful, courageous, or strong, are fractal pieces of ourselves!
Here’s to all the BIG THINKERS and HUGE HEARTS who are in this thing called life, together.
Blessings to you, Laura. You are limitless!
Love,
Marcia Ann
