about

Sometimes you just need a little nudge to get motivated… Sometimes you need something a little STRONGER!

SOMETIMES… you need the “nudge” to keep yourself going after you THINK you can’t keep going…another… step…

Sometimes you need to recognize that you actually HAVE been making progress… however slowly.

The bottom line is we are here to learn and grow and sometimes that means applying some actual transformational thinking!

Git ‘r’ DONE!. :o)

This song was inspired by my long time friend Kathy McAfee.

Motivation

Song # 356 | 9/7/2006 | CD: tbd

Motivation
It’s concentrated inspiration put into action
Its 10,000 steps in the right direction
It’s a goal on the horizon that you always keep in sight
It’s taking a chance on a dance at the leading edge of life

Refrain:
Focus in on who you truly are
Aim high for one specific star
Stop trying to be everything to everyone
Focus in on who you truly are
Aim high for one specific star
Then take a deep breath… and get it done

Motivation
It’s what you said to yourself this morning that got you out of bed
It’s focusing on the things you want to do before you’re dead
It’s a quiet kind of power that grinds down walls or goes around them
It’s the ability to see opportunities where everyone else sees problems
Motivation

Refrain:

Bridge:
Motivation, Motivation…
Innovation, Inspiration
Motivation
Concentration, Re-Creation,
Motivation
Motivation
Motivation

It’s noticing the grass is just as green over here on your side
It’s thinking the kinds of thoughts that open the world up wide
It’s standing strong in the moment you decided
To call upon the deep resources you always had inside

about

Mark Shepard Albany, New York

Welcome to my “Life In Song” project.

Since 1976, I’ve been obsessively and compulsively writing songs. Some of them are inspired by my own life, my attempts to understand love, life, spirituality, peace and justice.

While I recently have started to get a little recognition, you’ve probably never heard my songs ANYWHERE.

But now you can hear them... here... Download. Share. Thanks!
