NEW
YEARS - by Coach Brian J. Zahn © Copyright 2009
New Years is definitely a wonderful time to start
Turning wrongs into rights
To begin a new chapter
Of endless sleepless nights
There’s surely no better time
Than the present, of course
To reorganize your life
And utilizing your heart as a source
Search deep within for those goals of choice
That you really want to come true
First start by letting go of your fears
That have held onto you
For success is right around the corner
when you finally stay focused
Discipline and hard work are your keys
For there is really no magic or hocus-pocus
You’ll be amazed at what you can do
When you utilize your clarity and knowing
You’ll soon learn from past mistakes
And find yourself finally growing
For your answers have been
Deep inside you all along
Just be fully awake to see them
so you can start humming your happy song
I wish you all a happy new year
Filled with dreams and wishes coming true
Just keep moving forward and have faith
For I surely believe in YOU!
NO
ONE EVER TOLD ME - by Coach Brian J. Zahn © Copyright 2009
No one ever told me
that life would be hard
no one ever told me
that I won't be dealt all the cards
No one ever told me
that dreams can't come true over night
No one ever told me
that someday I might get lost and lose my sight
No one ever told me
that my wishes would take time
no one ever told me
that there would be tons of signs
No one ever told me
that I had to work for what I want
No one ever told me
that my fears will always haunt
No one ever told me
that I have to go slow not fast
No one ever told me
to let go of my past
No one ever told me
to rid my ego and pride
No one ever told me
that there would be days I want to hide
No one ever told me
that I should always feel from my heart
no one ever told me
that today is a good start
No one ever told me
to love each and everyone I know
no one ever told me
that my past is to learn and grow
No one ever told me
to forgive those who've done you wrong
no one ever told me
to sing out loud my favorite song
No one ever told me
to rid myself of guilt that might come
no one ever told me
to smell the roses and feel the warmth of the sun
No one ever told me
that happiness is mine to choose
no one ever told me...until now
that to Be the KEY is the ultimate tool.
BELIEVED - by Coach Brian J. Zahn
© Copyright 2008
I never BELIEVED that Life's Possibilities
are really truly endless
I guess I never BELIEVED
because I always felt defenseless
I never BELIEVED that my Heart
would be connected like it should
I guess I never BELIEVED
that I even deserved it could
I never BELIEVED in Wishes
that could someday come true
I guess I never BELIEVED
in fairy-tales, too
I never BELIEVED in Happiness
the way life is suppose to feel
I guess I never BELIEVED
in its true meaning that is real
I never BELIEVED in Faith
there seemd to be no real proof
I guess I never BELIEVED
because I never felt home under my own roof
I never BELIEVED in True Love
when 2 Souls become one
I guess I never BELIEVED
in anothers heart's warmth, like the sun
I never BELIEVED in Dreams
for they seemed to be too much work
I guess I never BELIEVED
for in the shadow of doubt is where I lurked
I never BELIEVED in Passion
for I was hurt so long ago
I guess I never BELIEVED
in my past to learn and grow
I never BELIEVED in truly living
my ducks seemed never in a row
I guess I never BELIEVED
in ever truly letting go
I never BELIEVED in being successful
my unconscious choices got in the way
I guess I never BELIEVED
for my fears had too much to say
I never BELIEVED in miracles
because they never happened to me
I guess I never BELIEVED
in little ole me
All these years I have been hoping and never fully awake
with only faint images to conceive
I guess I was just never truly ready
until I started to BELIEVE.
FOR
THE ONLY WAY - by Coach Brian J. Zahn
© Copyright 2008
Sometimes life throws you curve balls
and obstacles get in your way
Will you stand up and deliver?
and make the choices that will count today?
Or will you live within your ego
and follow with your pride
put your head in the sand
give up, forget and hide?
For the only way to move forward
and the only way to be free
Is to have the right perspective
and practice what you preach
For the only way to be happy
and the only way to start
is to have faith in yourself
and be truthful to your heart
Will you hold onto your fears
or let go of all your sorrows
hold in all the tears of yesterday
or start building a better tomorrow
Will you set your goals high
and strive for what your yearning
treat your life about a destination
or learn from your life's journey
For the only way to grow stronger
and the only way to believe
is to let of your past
and follow all your dreams
For the only way to find success
and the only way to go far
is to find all the love
in who you really are
THANKFUL - by Coach Brian J. Zahn
© Copyright 2008
Being THANKFUL is a lifetime process
It begins with the way you SEE things
Then you need to express what you see and feel it in your
heart
First, notice something that brings a smile to your face
and explore it, and notice how it feels inside
Each time you discover something new that you encounter
or find meaningful
Take the present moment to breathe it in
And then allow yourself to feel its importance deep
within your heart
Becoming THANKFUL doesn't stop with time or circumstances
or a job or your age
You may not feel something in an instant, but give it
some time and you will feel a lot.
It's real value is to yourself and not to anyone else.
It soon becomes a way of life that connects you to your
inner light
Those who choose to be THANKFUL, find life's moments to be
very high,
But those who choose to ignore it will find nothing and
no meaning
One thing is for certain...Life is never boring from this
moment on once you do.
And the best part is that your whole life is spent in
becoming THANKFUL
So you can always look forward to life's Changes
While growing and being connected to your greatest
assets!
LEAD
WITH YOUR HEART - by Coach Brian J. Zahn
© Copyright 2008
How was your day she asked so kind
and all I could think was that I'm so behind
works intense and there's so much to do
bills to pay, I have no clue
I close my eyes and think some more
as she stands there at the door
I've forgotten my goals and my dreams
so much on my plate, I want to scream
What happened to that little boy
who was full of life and so much joy
Feels like this world we live in now
takes everything away some how
I open my eyes and see her face
so full of life, style and grace
makes me smile and forget this race
and let go of all my worries & mistakes
Sometime we all need to read the signs
which are right there all the time
Stay positive, loving and be strong
learn and grow from what went wrong
Have faith and believe in what you say
Don't put off until tomorrow, live today
Let go of your past and inner tears
Make positive choices that will shed your fears
Set your intentions and follow them through
and Lead with your heart it's all you can do
Lost
in Translation - by Coach Brian J. Zahn © Copyright 2007
(top)
There’s a place so bright
Where my
light doesn’t shine
A tunnel so clear
I blind by
design
If it weren’t for my heart
I swear I
could not feel
The warmth of my soul
Locked behind
my seal
If I’m pulled down drowning
To the depths
of my sea
Could it be the fears
And anxieties
in me
When the sun’s rays are faint
And the sky’s
not clear
It’s the lightening strikes
And
thunderbolts I hear
It’s the clarity unfocused
The truth
telling lies
The knowing playing tricks
And the
meaning that must hide
The purpose undefined
The belief in
contemplation
My understanding complex
I’m lost in
translation.
Go For It -
by Coach Brian J. Zahn
© Copyright 2007
(top)
Take a moment and a deep breath
There's no reason to be upset
Be aware of your deep insides
And your happiness you will find
It's been dark for too long
Honor your light and be strong
You're life's worth living so just don't sit
Stand up tall and GO FOR IT
Believe in yourself and your sanity
Full of knowing and clarity
Let yourself grow just plant the seed
And live your life that's meant to be
Value yourself in all facets
And listen to your greatest asset
Connect to the one who knows you the best
And give your worries a deserved rest
Use the key that open's your doors
Let your life take flight and watch yourself soar
Remember your life's worth living so just don't sit
Stand up tall and GO FOR IT....

Let's dance like no one is
watching
Sing out loud, draw clouds in the air
Smile just like we need nothing
And play till we've let down our hair
Dreams do have wings like a butterfly
And miracles flow, gentle & warm as the sea
There are WONDERS in each
breath we do breathe
Every shining star's in our reach.I believe
Let's dream like there's no
tomorrow
Today's the first day in your life
To color the world with your rainbow
And laugh 'cause it's always in style
A blue sky gives birth to a starry night
And kindness does grow like leaves on a bountiful tree
There are WONDERS in each
breath we do breathe
Every shining star's in our reach, I believe.
Hey I believe in fairy tales,
angels too
and shooting for the moon
Believe you can't believe everything
Gotta seek your own truth
I do believe beauty lies in everyone yeah
There is nothing less perfection
Set into motion for you
There are WONDERS in each
breath we do breathe
Every shining star's in our reach, I believe.
There is magic in each step we do take
Come and wonder in all our love can create

"FREE
Hugs" Video
Sometimes, a hug is all that we need. Free hugs is the
real life controversial story of Juan Mann, A man whose
sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to
brighten up their life.
In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human
contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became
phenomenal. As this symbol of human hope spread
accross the city, police and officials ordered the Free
Hugs campaign Banned. What we then witnessed was the true
spirit of humanity coming together in what can only be
described as awe inspiring.
In the spirit of the Free Hugs campaign, pass this on to a
friend and hug a stranger! After all, If you can reach
just one person...
