Hey Friends,
If you are feeling stuck, remember that change is inevitable and that though should bring you joy and excitement. While it may feel like things may not change anytime soon or the feeling of "stuck ness", know that every single moment there is change and this minute or second is not the same as next.
So things will change and be excited about that.
Have a great day!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

2 words to keep in mind as you think about your goals and dreams and that is "why not".
Why not dream big,
Why not achieve goals
Why not face your fears
Why not stick to your resolutions
Why not love
Why not be brave and courageous
Why not choose you..
and the list can go on. Today and everyday ask yourself the question of why not and see what comes up. Make your own list as well and read it.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Sometimes I wish someone would just send me a message with thinking about you. Its nice to know that after all the stresses of life and work that someone is thinking about you.
I may not know you but I can send a note and know that I hope you all are well. Hang in there...someone somewhere is surely thinking about you.

The chief beauty about the constant supply of time is that you cannot waste it in advance. The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you, as perfect, as unspoilt, as if you had never wasted or misapplied a single moment". Arnold Bennet
As you start the week, remember that this week, this moment is waiting for you. What are you going to do with it. Its untouched and its yours. Now think about that,
Have a great Monday!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Hey Friends,
Remember what this time last year was like? What was going on for you? What were you learning and experiencing and struggling with?
As we get into the new year, note that the year is not a new year but a continuation. Things are going on and there is no end or no beginning. We all are just going on with our lives from one year to the next. The thing that has changed is your experiences and the wisdom that you have gained.
So remember we keep going on. Reflect on what that looks like for you and the exercise of remembering what last year was like will certainly help.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

So if you are feeling down and looking for a way to feel happy, put on your shoes or no shoes and dance. It will surely lift your spirits!

Remember this:
"Winning is fun … Sure. But winning is not the point. Wanting to win is the point. Not giving up is the point. Never letting up is the point. Never being satisfied with what you’ve done is the point."-Pat Summitt, head coach of the University of Tennessee women’s basketball team
Not giving up and never letting up! Remember this folks as you get through this year.

Hey Friends!
Had the first snow here in my area and boy was it cold but so beautiful. I always take time to enjoy the snow and appreciate the beauty.
No matter what the weather, take sometime to appreciate it and thank mother nature. Now you may not feel thankful if it is really stormy, but there is always something that you can find to be thankful for.
Have a great evening!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Hey Friends!
You made it to mid Jan! I love mid month reviews! It gives you a chance to look at everything you have done and everything that is coming up.
Take sometime to be grateful for everything that has happened since the beginning of this year. Gratitude is everything.
Also take time to look ahead and see what else could be on your radar for this month. Is it to much and is it doable? Do you need to shift things around?
Reflect and write down everything you need to have a successful month however you choose it.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Just a friendly reminder if you are keeping weight loss goals to eat good food. That may seem obvious but I am referring to a more deeper understanding on eating foods that satisfy your belly. Not just to fill it but to able to say, that food really satisfied my belly.
This means, food that give your energy and nourish you and not eating foods that make you feel sluggish.
Think about what you eat before you eat.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

I love starting lines and we are in the starting line of the year. The first days of the new year require adjusting and reviewing and getting used to writing 2024.
Now that we are over 10 days in, you are probably feeling more settled and back into your normal routines. For me, this is really the starting line. Its the right time to really think about yourself, your loved ones and how you want this starting line to go.
There is so much opportunity here with blank pages that need to be filled. It truly feels like a new beginning and the great thing is we get to decide how we want take off from the starting line. Imagine what yours will look like.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Sometimes I come across things and especially quotes where I need to be reminded most of a certain thing. This morning I cam across this quote:
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."-Lao Tzu
As I think about my goals this year and all the things I want to do, its a great reminder to just take that single step. The one step daily and as the year goes on, you will get to where you want to.
Have a wonderful Tuesday!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Remember to just breathe and relax as you get into the week. If you are working or raising a family, there is probably a lot going on so it all more important to be patient with everything.
Have a wonderful week!

Hey Friends!
Congrats on getting through the first week of the year. Its probably the hardest since its right after the holidays and getting back to work and school can feel overwhelming.
The good news is that you did get through he first week. There is still probably lots to do and think about like your goals and the vision you have for yourself this year. This is a gentle reminder to remember to just breathe and take deep breathes. Starting a new year is fun so don't let the daily stuff get to you or the feelings of accomplishing your goals.
The best way to get through this year is to keep breathing and just relaxing. Small steps and having a take it easy outlook might just be the thing you need for this year. I know I will definitely remember that.
Hope you had a great weekend!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Hey Friends,
Yesterday I wrote about closure and have more thoughts on it. Remember you want to move cleanly into this year and it helps to know why something began and ended.
As you find things to close on, recognize why it began and ended. You want to start the year clean so keep that in mind. Journal about it and then find a way to say your good bye either in person or in your heart.
Have a great Friday!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Hey Friends,
As we begin the new year and have now left 2023, there maybe some things that you are trying to find closure to. I know I am.
What's important to keep in mind is to keep in the past those moments in life that are over. Its not forgetting what happened, but to not let it negatively impact you this year. Your year can change dramatically if you are leave the past behind and not let it consume you. This will free up the energy to focus on what's in front of you.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

One of the things that I am really going to put into practice is the phrase "Silence is golden". Sometimes we talk to much or say the first thing that comes to mind.
How can we all learn to just be more silent first and then think through what needs to be said. It will certainly be a practice for this year.
Have a great Wednesday!
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

I came across this idiom on the internet: Jigou jitoku
It means you get out of life what you put in. As you start this year, think about what you would like to put in to reap the benefits. For me that will be gratitude, kindness, openness and being generous.
Note what that will look like for you.
Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Have a great new year day!
