Keys to Succeed

Know who you are

On your life journey you will enjoy mountain views, trek through dark valleys and at times become extremely nauseous with the continual twists and turns of your destined path. It’s easy to become lost and overwhelmed while the heart and brain play tug-of-war with your unfulfilled dreams. But when you know who you are, you will walk confidently wherever your path may lead.

Set a goal

Without a focus the human psyche begins to wander. Sometimes it can be refreshing to meander through life, but if you do it to long, depression can sneak in and rob the fullness of life you are meant to enjoy. It’s good to have an overall plan. Just set a general direction and start walking.

Create your own reality

If you’re not happy with your present circumstances…change them. It may sound simplistic but it’s true. If you don’t like your weight ~ pick a great diet and stick to it! If your health is suffering, get help. If you’re in a bad relationship ~ get out. If you want to go back to school ~ do it!!! The only thing holding you back is you! Turn all those excuses into action!

Play the part

Sometimes the only way to get through something is to “Fake it til you make it!” There is absolutely nothing wrong with pretending. Repetition will become habit and practice makes perfect. Before you know it you’ll be walking strong and achieving your dreams.

One thing is certain, we all have the ability to do anything we set our mind too…
we just need to set it!!

Happiness Is The Way....

There is no way to happiness...Happiness is the way....I heard that recently on Dr. Wayne Dyer's "The Power Of Intention" video...I love it, because it is simply...true...We chase happiness like it is an ellusion...hoping to grasp it and hold it tight...Feeling as though it may disappear at any moment...like it could be taken from us...But really it is always there...It is present in our hearts...our souls.......Happiness is you....Happiness is the way...My sister is struggling with foreclosure issues...She called me the other day...With extreme anxiety and depression over this...I told her to relax and let go...That that house does not define her...She is complete without it...I didn't know the impact I had on her that day...until she called me yesterday...She said that I touched something deep inside her and she was able to let go and relax...with just a few words..."That house does not define you"... Who knew that 6 words could help her so much...I think that we all need to look around and discover that we are complete...We are whole without any additives...;) We can be happy if we open our eyes to the beautiful journey we call LIFE! Life is good, girls...Life is good...Make this weekend the weekend you let go of the additives and treasure your life...It is filled with so much overwhelming joy...if you simply relax and let go.....and realize that happiness is the way....

The Stop Being Offended Game

I recently started pondering on being offended...I always have prided myself on being an open, cheery, and giving person...Me...ever offended? Never...I thought to myself...Well, besides that time that someone misunderstood what I was saying and made me feel like I had a to offend my thoughts...and that other time, when I was left out of an important meeting...Yeah, I was offended then, too...I guess, we all get offended from time to time....When we get our feelings hurt, or we are misunderstood by someone, or we are offended by someone else's words or actions....

I want to share with you something magical that is happening inside of me...The magic of letting go of being offended...Who would of thought by making this a part of my life, how much more happiness would come into my life...I use it as a game now...This is how it works...When someone says something that is mean or cruel..or just negative...I stop...breath...and let it go...I don't judge them or get mad...I let them have their own opinion...I don't tell them what I think...or get wrapped up in a negative discussion...And when someone is being rude, like at the grocery store, I don't let my blood boil or say something rude back...I disconnect myself from it...and move on in my day...When I am left out of something...I don't get sad or carry anger...I simply say to myself...let it go...You were not meant to be there...I don't hold on to the anger and dislike the person or persons who left me out...I just choose to be happy...I choose to live a life that will make a difference to my life and the lives around me...When someone wants to talk negatively, I don't chime in and bring myself down to that level...And I don't put myself on a pedestal that says that I am better than them, either...I don't judge the situation, at all..I move forward...Moving forward with an attitude of gratitide...is the only way to stop feeling angry, hurt, or offended...Lastly, When someone is dressed inappropiately or in a way that offends or upsets you, learn to let that go, as well...I have learned to not judge people by the way they are dressed...you know what kind of attire I am talking about...The trashy, scantily clad attire...They are trying to get attention and fill a void in their lives or make themselves feel or look certain way to make themselves feel important or different...You can choose to judge them or to let them be who they want to be...You don't have to agree or disagree...You are choosing to not be offended by it...And not giving your positive energy to it, either...Take this little game...and try it out on the next thing that upsets you...I promise it will be such an uplifting moment...and you'll start using it everyday of your life...
