Courage...

Everyday we get up and place that coat of amour on to battle todays challenges.

Courage isn't just fighting for our freedom on a battle field but staying strong through life diversities daily. We all use courage everyday without even recognizing it as courage.

Courage is when:

  • you stop avoiding people that you don't care for
  • you follow that dream that has been there for years
  • you act on a decision that will change your life
  • you take that chance to love someone and be loved
  • you stand for something you believe
  • you admit you were wrong and make a change
  • you take that chance to live your Life
  • you tell someone how you truly feel

Courage is such a small word with great hope. We all have the power within ourselves to succeed. To reflect on our fears and imperfections and make a change.

REMEMBER:

"To be courageous means to be afraid but to go a little step forward anyway." 

Beverly Smith

How's your courage today!!

 

 

 

Birthday Wishes....

Some of us look forward to that special day once a year and others may shy away from them, birthdays, looking at them as another year of getting older. Whether we look forward to them or not it doesn't matter because birthday's come once a year.

The way we feel when we give that special gift to someone and get so excited waiting for them to open their present. The anticipation and excitement that it brings to us waiting for that sign of happiness and gratitude is amazing.

Why can't we have that feeling of excitement 365 days a year not just once a year. We can! by giving the gift of ourselves. It doesn't cost a dime to show appreciation, love, happiness and joy daily to each other. Treat everyday like it was our birthday and share the gift of you.

So, if you know someone is having a birthday today, don't text them, don't email them, don't face book them and don't tweet them- call them. Talk to them on their special day and give them the gift of you, something they will remember and not be able to delete.

Just remember:              

                            " it is not the years in your life but the life in your years that counts."

                                                                                                  Adlai Stevenson

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHARLES!!

 

 

 

Dreams from the Heart

The meaning of DREAMS:

       - something that you have wanted very much to do, be or to have for a long time

       - a strong desired goal or purpose

       -to think about something that you wish would happen or something that you want to do or be

If you are one of those people that imagine, fantasize, visualize what you want to become that is  dreaming.  A dream that you can make come true if you have the courage to follow your heart and never give up the belief that you can accomplish it.

Believe in yourself enough that you may fulfill that dream and make it come true. The person that said this quote knew what it was to dream and see it come true:

           "all our dreams can come true-if you have the courage to pursue them" Walt Disney

DREAM A DREAM with me!

Don't be Discouraged

I went to an event last week that I thought I could shine my passion and dream of coaching and Introduce what I was all about. Well that didn't happen. I went in all energetic and proud and came out questioning the direction that I am taking. Since this is my dream and belief I wondered if I should even be sharing that dream right now.

I left doubtful, disappointed and discouraged. I realized that every one isn't on the same track as me. My job isn't to get you on the same track as me, just introduce you to a new destination you might be interested in.

So with that being said, the quote for today is:

                            "The  key to everything is patience. You get the chicken by hatching

                              the egg--not by smashing it."

                                                         Arnold Glasow

Stay Strong!!!

              

                            

Time Passes Quickly

Our days do not stand still for anyone. So every minute of the day we need to make it count for something.  When you get up in the morning, think of something you wish to accomplish that day and make every effect to succeed in that task. 

Today's quote says it all:

                         " Yesterday is a canceled check;tomorrow is a promissory

                           note; today is the only cash you have --- so spend it wisely."

                                                                                                     Kay Lyons

So have a fantastic day!

 

Blocking out the Negative

When one goes thru life you will come across negative and positive suggestions.

The secret of the day is to keep negative thoughts out of your mind and receive and keep the positive thoughts.

I came across this quote that I am learning to live with:

           "I keep the telephone of my mind open to peace, harmony, love and abundance. Then  whenever  doubts, anxiety, or fear try to call me, they keep getting a busy signal--and soon they'll forget my number. "

                                                       Edith Armstrong

STAY POSITIVE!!!!!!!!

 

 

Believe in Yourself

There are so many things that can cause one not to believe in oneself. Doubt, Fear, Hurt and so much more.  When these emotions come across our minds that is when trusting in ourselves becomes so important. Someone I care about sent me this inspiring thought in my time of uncertainty, which I would like to share:

" surround yourself with the dreamers and the doers, the believers and the thinkers; but most of all, surround yourself with those who see the greatness within you, even when you don't see it yourself."

                                                                                           Edmund Lee

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My inspiration for Sunday →

My inspiration comes from many sources and different people. I was inspired today by a woman that has know me since I  was 16 yrs. old, she never stop amazing me. She is still guiding me and encouraging me to move forward. 

After hanging up the phone from her today I realized where I got my strength and the dream to help others, because she has helped me so much thru my life I feel a need to pay forward.

She mentioned a lot to me today but the following saying she said stuck with me, it made me believe that nothing is impossible but to fulfill that thought you and I both need help for the possible. She said,

        "WHEN EVER YOU SEE A TURTLE SITTING ON A FENCE POST-

REMEMBER HE DID NOT GET THERE BY HIMSELF"
