When You Need A Break, Take It

Listen to your body.

Listen to your instinct.

Listen to your heart.

Listen to your mind.

If “they” are telling you to stay on the couch with a good book or marathon movies or naps all day, do it.

Sometimes you just need a day off.

It’s good for the soul… and creates better motivation for the next day. 💪

Have a safe and Happy New Year!🎉

When You’re Feeling Overwhelmed…

When you’re feeling overwhelmed, pick two or three things to complete that day.

Write them down so you don’t forget or become distracted.

Only two or three. This is important.

Only two or three.

Now avoid everything else, and focus on achieving your two or three goals for the day.

Don’t go to bed until they are complete, or at least until you’ve made some great progress.

You got this!

❤❤❤

Stay Grounded

Stay grounded in what matters.

Don’t let outside influences sway you away from what’s important to you.

Use One Bad Decision…

…as a stepping stone to do much better.

Take some time to be still… and think about how you can fix it, make it right, seek forgiveness (forgive yourself), and then turn it into a learning, strengthening lesson.

Face this and you will be ok.

One bad decision…

One mistake…

One bad thing happening to you…

Should not lead you down a road of (self) destruction… spiraling out of control.

Instead know in your heart and soul… this is a moment to prove to yourself and others (but especially yourself) who you are and who you want to be.

Be a person of character.

Be a person who falls down but gets back up.

Be a person who picks up others.

Be a person others can look up to.

Be a person of integrity.

Be…

And know your mistakes always have the potential to make you so much better than you were before.

Trust yourself.

❤❤❤

~~I’m reminded of my character, Christy, in Touchable Love. She made many mistakes, and didn’t believe she deserved to be happy. Christy ran from everything good.

An unexpected job helped her learn to trust herself and face her past.

What can I say, I’m a sucker for the underdog. 😊

Stay Humble

Stay humble.

Stay kind.

You’re never so important that you can’t be knocked down.

Change Is Constant… So Try To Stay Flexible

It’s not easy to go with the flow when we discover a mountain of rocks in our way… and those rocks seem to jump out of nowhere!

One rock at a time…

Walk around or climb over…

Or maybe even change directions…

Either way, you got this!

❤❤❤

Hang Around People With Common Sense… It Will Rub Off

Common sense will take you every place you want to go in life.

It’s Sometimes Smart To Keep Your Secrets


Or your dreams or goals…

Avoid the talk.
Instead walk the walk.

Sometimes telling people things… their doubts… can drag you down.

Stay strong!

You Are Not A #Victim If You Have #Choices. So…

Reach out for help.

Accept help.

But don’t depend on others indefinitely.

If you can make changes without help, then do it.

You are in charge of YOUR life.

You are strong.

You are capable.

You might fall down, but get back up.

Keep getting back up.

Keep getting back up.

YOU can change your life.

Make it exactly the way you want it.

It takes a lot of HARD work.

But you will get there.

And you will look back and be thankful for the HARD work.

You will love the hard work.

You will LOVE the hard work.

Your life is yours.

You’re in control.

You decide.

You and you alone map out your life.

Don’t blame anybody else… this makes you weak.

Blame = weakness.

Taking responsibility = strength.

You are better and stronger than you realize.
