Coach Lori Park

A personal warrior ethos are your guiding set of principles that you use to navigate challenges and strive for excellence in life.

Identify what truly matters to you.  Reflect on your experiences.  Your experiences have actually molded you for who you're becoming.

Disconnect yourself from what others do.  They were never meant to be your moral compass.

President Kennedy once said, "Ask not what your country can do for you --ask what you can do for your country."

Shouldn't we be saying the same thing about Our Community, and Our Family?

We are here to be All That We Can Be.  That's our target.  It doesn't matter what others are doing...they'll eventually catch on and catch up.

Be who YOU were meant to be...AN EXAMPLE!

How you look at things will either support you, or hold you back.

If you never went through any change, you would'nt have grown.  I agree sometimes change can be scary...sometimes it's not.  Could that be because of what you're thinking or how you believe the change will affect you, that made the difference?

I always recommend the 20% - 80% rule.  Look at the situation for 20% of the time, to see the problems you perceive might happen with this change.  Then suspend those thoughts, and with a fresh mind, spend the remaining 80% of the time looking at the possibilities, options, and opportunities that this change can bring to your life.

This is how we Grow in life.  This is how we Create in life; and we are infinite creators.  If we can dream it, we can create it!

Afterwards, you can look back and realize the benefits from that change, and how it enhanced your life.

Happy Easter

Happy Passover

Happy Orthodox Easter

2025 is a very unusual year where all three faiths celebrate on the exact same day, April 20th. 

What is the common thread between all of these messages?

It's about breaking the bondage we've been put under.  Understanding this message offers the foundational knowledge that you are a Free and Sovereign being.  Once you hold this knowledge to be true and self evident, you would not allow yourself to be placed in bondage again.

Knowledge Is Power!

The first day of the year always started after the Spring Equinox.  This is logical as we see the beginning of life in nature, with the plants and animals, as they emerge from hibernation.

The first day of the new year was April 1st, until the changed us from the Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar in 1582.  Does it even make sense that the first of the year is in the dead of Winter?

Why would they change our days so drastically?  Have we been fooled?  Too many things in our world do not make sense.  I'm not saying I have the answers, but I am saying the people we have trusted in the past, have proven themselves to be Not worthy of our trust.

I believe we each need to go through our own discernment on what is true and what is false.  Who to trust, and who to no longer believe.

Today is April 13th 2025.  We are entering into a timeline were Palm Sunday and Easter is celebrated on the exact date for both Christians and Orthodox Christians.  This happens once ever four years. ...

Did you ever give a thought to where April Fool's Day came from?

Actually the first day of the calendar year was always April 1st, just after the Spring Equinox.  In 1582, Pope Gregory XIII started the Gregorian Calendar.  This calendar switched the first day of the calendar from April 1st to January1st.

This was quickly adopted by much of the Catholics, but not by the Protestants within Europe.

People who were resistant to embrace this new calendar change became the butt of jokes and hoaxes and were called "April Fool's".

Boomerang Effect

Whatever you put out into the world, the same thing will be delivered back to you.

It has been said throughout the ages, "As a man sows, so shall he reap"

It is to all of our benefit, to be aware of what we are putting out into the world. 

May I recommend Love and Compassion?

Have you ever gone through periods of uncertainty in your life?  When things appear to be confusing and murky?

What did you do?  How did you gain clarity?  Did you go within for a quiet conversation with the Creator?  Did you have a discussion with a trusted friend or mentor?  What did you do to navigate through the confusion to the other side of your situation?

The truth is, we've all been in this situation a multitude of times, we just need to recall what we did that brought us to our solution, then repeat the process every time our life hits a bumpy road.

Too many people get lost in the problem du jour, and focus their attention on what's going wrong.  Einstein said, you will never find the solution, with the same mind that sees there's a problem.  This means we need to be open to look at things differently. 

The world is currently going through one of those murky times.  We sure could benefit from people who are willing to look at things differently and recall those times of ...

You might be surprised, but many people want to be told some thing that's NOT true, if the truth isn't pleasant.

The problem with that is...you won't be able to navigate to where you WANT to be if you're given inaccurate information to begin with.

Those people will constantly feel lost, frustrated, and unhappy.

As hard as the truth may be, it will always be the shortest journey to your desired destination!
