Yes, I Can Do It!

Yes, I can do it.

Whether you are thinking about trying a new recipe, completing a class, applying for a job, seeking a new career, facing a fear, or having the most serious talk of your life believe that all things are possible.

Set yourself up for success with an optimistic attitude, a strong philosophy, and good morals and values. Work on developing a constructive outlook, beneficial resolve and valuable outcome.

Choose to apply personal wisdom from the past, incorporate new life lessons studied in books, seminars, other media or materials, and be observant and learn from others’ successes and mistakes.

If you fall short of your plans or goals re-read the instructions, re-evaluate your emotions, spend more time studying, and reexamine your motives.

Beginning a sentence with, “Yes, I can do it” is how all good in your life starts. The development and its chance to come to fruition, however, is in your everyday persistence.

Keep moving forward with your plans, schemes and dreams. Believe. You can do it!

SOMETHING BORROWED - WEAR YOUR EXPRESSIONS WELL

SOMETHING BORROWED - WEAR YOUR EXPRESSIONS WELL

"Of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important." Jane Lane


We can place much attention into what we wear. We can feel bright in spirit when we wear vibrant clothing and filled with more self esteem when our clothes are properly fitted or new. But what happens when we haven’t done our laundry and dig into the closet and reach for something that is ill-fitted, too worn or tacky?

It’s important to feel at peace within our selves, confident about who we are, self-assured about where we are going, happy about our aura when we walk into a room and attentive to what we project to others.

A garment of clothing should not change who we are much less determine what we show on our face. Wear your expressions well.

Quiet! Be still!

Quiet! Be still!

When we are at our wit’s end we can shout to another, “Quiet. Be still!” Put that demand on your own life every day. Take advantage of quiet moments, heartfelt prayer or deep meditation to find serenity. What we feel inside our hearts projects to all aspects of our lives. Make peace the nucleus of your spirit leaving fear, panic and anxiety nowhere to sit, harbor or fester.

Look Forward To Change

When we can move past the routine and familiarity of yesterday we can begin to enjoy the blessings of our present, the refreshing days ahead, the motivating moments to come, and the sweet challenges that make life and changes worthwhile.

Enjoy What Is Right In Your Life

When the day’s events seem like they are cutting off your circulation, when you feel pushed against a wall, when you can’t seem to do anything right, stop trying to fix or change it. Enjoy what is right in your life. In the morning, many things that you thought were roadblocks were simply signs to lead you to a better place.

A Prayer for the New Year

In the final hours of this year I’m mixed with bitter sweet emotions as I recall many wonderful successes, setbacks that made us stronger, anniversaries of painful losses, exciting new births, challenges for our continued good health and excitement of the unknown that awaits all of us in the days to come. I pray that our hearts beat and live with sincere gratefulness, that we believe we possess hands that are blessed and prepared for charitable service to others, take pleasure in eyes that are not self-serving but rather selfless, desire thoughts that promote peace, and partial to words that will aid and love each other and above all exalt the Lord’s name always! I ask these things for all in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ!

A toast to the many woes and wows of yesterday! It is through those ups and downs that bring us hopeful and capable of much in the New Year! Salude!
