Take a walk

Feeling overwhelmed?  About to lose it?  Don't take it out on others - just go take a walk.  Getting away from the moment can some times relax your. Exercise clears the mind.  Endorphines will energize you in a more positive way.  You will feel better and more powerful.

It's ok to dream!

It's OK to dream for something but, until you make an action plan - it stays just that - a dream.  To change your dreams into reality, set forth realistic goals.  Make them small at first and build upon them and someday your dreams will be reality.

Being Kind Multiplies

When you are kind it multiplies by a least a minimum of 2. (1) You feel better, thus you become healthier. (2) You make someone else feel better and they will spread the positive energy. At that point, the positive effective probably multiplies beyond our imagination!

Making mistakes

Make mistakes - go ahead!  It's how we learn.  Don't wallow in self-pity but instead,  take the lessons and do better!  If you find yourself repeating mistakes you aren't learning and things won't change.  Ask someone to help see the lessons and perhaps you won't repeat!

When in Doubt Just Keep Laughing

Laughter is an amazing medicine for whatever ails you! I find that if I'm in a grumpy mood I search http://www.youtube.com/ for funny videos. This always puts me in a better mood. Positive mind sets make us more motivated and productive.

Martin Luther King

Dr. Martin Luther King changed the world with peace and love.  I hope we keep his legacy alive.

Be Yourself - It's Easier That Way

Trying to be something you are not is such a waste of energy.  Small daily improvements are better than creating a false façade that will crumble at the first sign of stress.  Just try to be a better you.

Spike, the Cat

The sun is always shining even when it's behind the clouds.  My kitty of 18 yrs died last night and today I will grieve but, I know he had a good life and I will celebrate that tomorrow.  Today, I reflect and decide any lessons I can learn.

Believe in Yourself

You have to keep on believing in yourself. When you stop believing you give up. Never give up! Even when you think all is lost, it is not. You still have wonderful, beautiful you.

You are what you do not what you say.

Many of us are good at talking up a good story but we are never good at walking the walk. Set your intentions and then take action!

Happy New Year

Take the time to reflect.  Many of us focus on what was wrong with 2009 - but what went right?  How will 2010 be better?  How will you be better?  Try at the very least to be optimistic!
