What do you BELIEVE?

GOOD things come 

to those who BELIEVE! 

BETTER things come 

to those who are PATIENT in their beliefs 

and the BEST things come 

to those who DON'T GIVE UP their BELIEFS!! 

Because GOD leads us to where we NEED to be 

and not always where we WANT to be! 

Instead of trying to argue or question his path, 

which never leads to anywhere HAPPY, 

try ACCEPTING it 

and WALKING IN FAITH t

hat he knows what he is doing 

and he's got your back! 

Make it a FAITH FILLED Sunday!!

Your worst enemy is....

The BIGGEST THING 

to keep you from 

SUCCESS, FRIENDSHIP, LOVE and LIFE? 

Self-Pity!! 

You never see an animal feel sorry for itself 

because it's NOT a part of nature to do so! 

It was created by humans t

o garner attention in a NEGATIVE format! 

SELF-PITY is easily the MOST DESTRUCTIVE 

of all non-pharmaceutical narcotics 

AND it's HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!! 

If you yield to it, 

you will NEVER do anything GOOD! 

Shake off the disappointments of life 

and REALIZE, EVERYONE goes thru struggles!! 

Make the CHOICE to LIVE in JOY!! 

And see how ATTRACTIVE that makes you!!

What it takes to be GREAT

Something GREAT PEOPLE do 

that I am still trying to learn~ 

OFFER COMPASSION 

in the face of hate, jealousy and ignorance! 

Because the truth is, 

haters don't REALLY hate you! 

They actually hate themselves 

because YOU are reflection 

of what THEY want to be! 

Offer them KINDNESS 

and have sorrow in your heart for them! 

They will never find TRUE HAPPINESS 

wishing for the life of another! 

You see HAPPINESS is found in BEING GRATEFUL 

for WHO you are and 

WHAT you have RIGHT NOW!! 

Let's end this year with 

GRATITUDE and COMPASSION!!

A Conspiracy of LOVE, JOIN IT

BLESSED is the Season 

that engages the WHOLE WORLD 

in a CONSPIRACY of LOVE!! 

Wouldn't it be lovely 

if we were reminded of THIS SPIRIT every month? 

If every month we found a way to be 

MORE COMPASSIONATE, LOVING and KIND? 

Let's make it one of our New Years Resolutions 

to REMEMBER the Holiday Spirit 

and to ALLOW it to FILL our HEARTS and MINDS 

thru out the year!! 

For you see, 

we are alot like snowflakes, 

ALL DIFFERENT in our own BEAUTIFUL way!! 

Express YOUR UNIQUE BRAND of LOVE 

everyday!!

Wednesday's Inspiration 12/25/13~ Today is about...

"Every good gift and every perfect gift 

is from above, 

coming down from the Father of lights 

with whom there is no variation or shadow 

due to change."James 1:17 

"Thanks be unto God 

for his unspeakable gift." 2 Corinthians 9:15 

"May the God of hope fill you

Tuesday's Inspiration 12/24/13~ Without ACTION there is no SUCCESS

In life you MUST have some 

form of ACTION 

to get anything accomplished! 

You must do more than just belong; 

you must PARTICIPATE! 

You must do more than care; 

you must HELP! 

You must do more than believe; 

you must PRACTICE! 

You must do more than be fair; 

you must BE KIND! 

You must do more than forgive; 

you must learn to FORGET! 

And you must do more than dream; 

you must WORK for it!! 

Put a little ACTION behind every thought 

and watch SUCCESS follow! 

May your Christmas Eve be FILLED with ACTION!! 

Try using the mistletoe!

Monday's Inspiration 12/23/13~ GOALS vs DREAMS

GOALS, 

no matter how much you 

DESIRE them, 

BELIEVE in them or 

WANT them, 

until you create DISCIPLINE and 

develop a PLAN 

which you put into ACTION 

they will always remain just that, 

GOALS! 

STOP DREAMING and GET MOVING!! 

People of ACCOMPLISHMENT 

rarely "sit back" and let things happen to them!! 

They went out and HAPPENED to things!! 

HARD WORK is the price for SUCCESS!! 

YOU can ACCOMPLISH ANYTHING 

if YOU pay the price!! 

Happy Motivational Monday!!

Saturday's Inspiration 12/21/13~ Are you ready to be FEARLESS

Being FEARLESS 

doesn't mean you are absent of fear! 

Being fearless 

doesn't mean you are absent of doubt! 

Being FEARLESS simply means 

you CHOOSE to MOVE FORWARD 

into the unknown 

even though you are trembling! 

You see, 

FEAR is nothing more than 

an OBSTACLE standing in the way 

of SUCCESS!! 

Every time we FACE our FEARS 

we realize we are STRONGER and WISER 

than we knew! 

Go BOLDLY into this day 

and let nothing deter your VICTORY!!

Friday's Inspiration 12/20/13~ PASSION, Do you have it

PASSION! 

It's what DRIVES US! 

If you aren't PASSIONATE 

about what you are doing in life 

then REACH out of your comfort zone 

and FIND YOUR PASSION!! 

It's the thing that wakes you up at 3:45am 

thinking about how to make it 

BIGGER and BETTER!! 

There is no PASSION 

found in playing SMALL- 

in settling for a life 

that is less then the one 

you are capable of living!! 

PASSION is ENERGY!! 

Feel the power that comes from 

FOCUSING on what EXCITES you!! 

Let's make it a 

PASSION DRIVEN Friday!!

Thursday's Inspiration 12/19/13~ Your LIFE, Your CHOICES

CHOICES! 

We ALL have them! 

YOU CHOOSE THE LIFE YOU LEAD!! 

People who are "effected" by life 

aren't making the RIGHT choices! 

You see, 

no matter what has happened or is happening 

in your life RIGHT NOW, 

it does not NOT have the power 

to KEEP you from having a FABULOUS LIFE!! 

It ONLY has the power YOU assign it! 

Look at the CHOICES 

you have made and are making, 

THAT is your LIFE and your FUTURE! 

Best news is, 

it's not too late to 

MAKE DIFFERENT CHOICES!! 

Happy Thursday Y'all!!

Wednesday's Inspiration 12/18/13~ What GUIDES you

Do you have an 

INTERNAL COMPASS of APPROVAL 

which reminds you to 

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF 

at ALL times, in ALL situations? 

Well that is something that

 HIGHLY CONFIDENT people have 

and YOU can learn to develop! 

This compass GUIDES those who 

have it on their path in life! 

It encourages them to seek 

INDEPENDENCE and FORWARD motion!

so why would you let someone else 

guide you on your journey? 

Think of this compass as your GPS, 

Gods Positioning System, 

and have FAITH in its course!

Tuesday's Inspiration 12/17/13~ How is your FOCUS

A CONFIDENT person 

is both PERSISTENT and FOCUSED! 

They persist in finding 

what does and doesn't work and

They stay persistent by staying FOCUSED! 

Distractions can not alter 

their thought process or course! 

Practice both of these today 

and feel your CONFIDENCE grow!!

Monday's Inspiration 12/16/13~ How to become #CONFIDENT

This week let's explore 5 things 

CONFIDENT PEOPLE do DIFFERENTLY!! 

#1~ They TAKE RESPONSIBILITY 

for their REALM of INFLUENCE and 

they have the ability to say NO 

and DO NOT HESITATE to SPEAK UP!! 

The first thing to do is to 

take COMPLETE RESPONSIBILITY 

for your ENTIRE LIFE~ 

RIGHT HERE! 

RIGHT NOW! 

And let go of everything else! 

Next, develop the ability to SPEAK UP 

when it MATTERS! 

Your opinion is IMPORTANT! 

Also don't say YES when you mean no 

and don't over commit! 

Today SAY WHAT YOU MEAN and vice versa! 

Make it a MOVING FORWARD Monday!!

Sunday's Inspiration 12/15/13~ With LOVE anything is POSSIBLE

YOU don't have HAVE to be wrong 

for me to be RIGHT! 

I don't have to be harmed 

for you to feel LOVED! 

You see, 

it is NOT in the destruction or demeaning of others 

that one finds FLIGHT, 

the ability to SOAR above ALL! 

It IS in the 

HELPING, COMPASSION and KINDNESS, 

when we allow our RAW HUMANITY to show 

that we SOAR! 

This is the ONE THING that 

we ALL have in COMMON!! 

Thru LOVE we can do all things! 

Hate never accomplished anything POSITIVE!! 

Make it a POWERFULLY POSITIVE Sunday!!

WHATEVER you look for... 

YOU WILL FIND!!

THAT is what you will find! 

If you look for HAPPINESS, 

you get it! 

When you CONTROL 

what you are SEEKING or EXPECTING 

then you CONTROL your LIFE!! 

Today TAKE CHARGE 

and be in CONTROL of 

all the GOOD THINGS you can have!! 

Then, show others 

how to do the same!! 

Happy, Happy Saturday Y'all!!

Friday's Inspiration 12/13/13~ YOU have nothing to PROVE

Today is 'tell it like you see it' Friday!! 

THE MOMENT 

you feel like you have to 

PROVE your worth to someone

 is the moment you should 

ABSOLUTELY and UTTERLY~ 

GET UP and WALK AWAY!! 

Your "WORTH" is PRICELESS!! 

YOU were created by GOD! 

If anyone challenges or questions 

your worth as a human being 

then they have WAY to many problems 

for YOU to be around! 

Today, 

SHOW YOUR VALUE 

instead of defending it! 

SPARKLE and SHINE 

the way GOD intended!! 

Happy FABULOUS Friday Y'all!!

I am excited about the work 

I am going accomplish today!

Wednesday's Inspiration 12/11/13~ The TURE measure of POWER

Too many spend too much time 

trying to PROVE how big they are 

by wielding their POWER without thinking, 

in a metaphorical "beating of the chest" 

like King Kong. 

Never taking the time to consider 

the destruction it causes 

or the people it injures! 

POWER used for self is NOT POWER! 

You just look an GIANT APE!! 

POWER used for others... 

NOW that is STRENGTH!! 

You never heard of Jesus, Gandhi, Buddha 

or any other great leader CLAIMING SELF!! 

If you REALLY want POWER~ 

STAND FOR OTHERS!! 

The VICTORY in the end 

has INFINITE VALUE!! 

Wishing EVERYONE a 

day of COMPASSION for OTHERS!!

Tuesday's Inspiraiton 12/10/13~ The POWER is yours

Your PAST is just a story! 

It has no power over you 

unless YOU give it power! 

Don't deny it, 

hide yourself or 

walk away when others bring it up! 

ACCEPT your past, 

ADMIT to your past and 

MOVE BEYOND your past! 

Only when we are COURAGEOUS enough to say 

"I am me and NOT what I have done" 

are we able to make a clear path FORWARD! 

Once we realize the past is a story 

that can not be edited, erased, changed or forgotten 

THEN we can ACCEPT it 

and MOVE ON FREELY!! 

Let Go 

so that something NEW may come forth!!

Monday's Inspiration 12/09/13~ How do you SEE it?

Some can't help but see the glass 

as half empty! 

Some can only see the glass 

as half full! 

And then there are those 

who are simply GRATEFUL 

to be holding a glass!! 

You see, 

the MIRACLE of being GRATEFUL 

is that it LITERALLY SHIFTS 

your PERCEPTION 

to such an extent that 

it CHANGES the way YOU see the world!! 

APPRECIATE EVERYTHING you have!! 

That is the root of HAPPINESS!! 

So, what are YOU GRATEFUL FOR today?

Sunday's Inspiration 12/08/13~ To find friends, BE ONE

FRIENDS are hard to find! 

In a lifetime 

you only find a few who are TRUE! 

And when you FIND them, 

you always KNOW them by sight 

and HEART alone! 

You always GROW 

a little bit taller in your SOUL 

and you know you have been BLESSED 

just to know them!! 

The fastest way to FIND those FRIENDS 

is to BE ONE!! 

Because REAL FRIENDSHIP is not a big thing 

but a billion little things!! 

A HUGE THANK YOU 

to ALL my FRIENDS today!! 

YOU make me SMILE! 

YOU give me PURPOSE!! 

And YOU have TOUCHED my SOUL!!

Saturday's Inspiration 12/07/13~ It's TIME to BELIEVE

DREAMS come true 

when we learn to BELIEVE in them! 

Believing is nothing more than 

ACCEPTING, EXPECTING and 

having CONFIDENCE and FAITH 

in your dreams! 

Failure doesn't kill dreams! 

When we learn what doesn't work, 

we can simply attempt another path!!

 DOUBT has killed more dreams 

then failure ever did!! 

Today practice REMOVING ALL DOUBT 

and replacing it with BELIEF in YOURSELF!! 

Today is perfect day to 

start LIVING YOUR DREAM!! 

Happy 'Make it Happen' Saturday!!

Friday's Inspiration 12/06/13~ The TRUTH about Gossip

Bullying at ANY AGE is WRONG!! 

Spreading Gossip is BULLYING!! 

Let me explain what Gossip is~ 

the spreading of misinformation, 

aka UNTRUTHS and LIES, 

thru conversations. 

If what you say about another person is a lie 

and you are gladly "sharing" it with others 

then YOU are BULLYING!! S

EEK the TRUTH and 

you will find it! 

Start with the person you are speaking about! 

When you live a #TRUTHFUL LIFE 

you never have to remember what you said! 

Take the time to 

SPREAD TRUTH and LOVE! 

If you aren't making the world a BETTER PLACE 

then at least try not to make it worse!!

Read more >>

Thursday's Inspiration 12/05/13~ Find your COURAGE

COURAGE is going from failure to failure 

without losing ENTHUSIASM!! 

You see, enthusiasm doesn't see failure,

 it sees what didn't work 

and seeks a NEW WAY 

to GET what it WANTS!! 

Listen some people

 simply look for a "beautiful place" 

while others take the time 

to MAKE IT a beautiful place! 

Which one are you? 

Grab you COURAGE and 

keep your ENTHUSIASM and 

MAKE IT a BEAUTIFUL LIFE!! 

If not YOU then who? 

May your day SHINE 

with the BEAUTY of SUCCESS!!

every strength you need 

to bring your dreams to pass!!

NEVER change, alter or subdue WHO YOU ARE 

for any person or reason!!! 

YOU ARE ENOUGH, 

just as you are!! 

Today BE UNAPOLOGETICALLY YOU!!!

Tuesday's Inspiration 12/03/13~ What Letting Go REALLY means

Letting go of the past means TRULY~ 

letting go! 

It's about forgiving 

and then forgetting!! 

You see, 

you can't start a NEW chapter of your life 

if you KEEP reading the last one! 

Where you are NOW 

is not your FINAL destination!

 BELIEVE that the BEST is yet to come! 

Start living EXPECTING GOOD THINGS!! 

Be thankful for the PAST lessons 

but LOOK FORWARD!! 

Hey, when YOU let go of the past... 

the past will let go of YOU!!! 

Let's make it a 

FOCUS FORWARD Tuesday!!

Monday's Inspiration 12/02/13~ TODAY is THE DAY!

TODAY is THE DAY! 

Let's make today be THE DAY 

you LOVE and VALUE YOURSELF enough 

to no longer just wish and dream of a better life, 

but the day you GET UP and ACT UPon it!! 

Don't be afraid of failing or falling! 

Our greatest GLORY is not in never falling, 

EVERYONE falls!! 

But instead, 

it is in our RISING UP every time we fall!

 Even when they are telling you, 

just stay down. 

DON'T LISTEN!! 

GET UP, ACT UP and RISE UP!! 

Those are the ACTIONS that will 

MOVE YOU to LIFE you want!! 

Happy Motivated Monday Y'all!!

Sunday's Inspiration 12/01/13~ FORGIVING is FOR YOU

FORGIVENESS! 

Sometimes we hold on to our

 hurt, anger and resentment WAY too long! 

It's like a badge we carry with honor. 

But the WEIGHT of carrying it around 

eventually takes a toll on US! 

You see, 

FORGIVENESS isn't done 

so the other person can "Get away with it", 

it isn't done for the "other person" AT ALL!! 

We MUST FORGIVE for OURSELVES, 

so that we can get better and MOVE ON!! 

Forgiveness doesn't CHANGE the past, 

but it DOES ENLARGE YOUR FUTURE!! 

A simple tip to GET HAPPY, 

let go of things that make you sad! 

YOU DESERVE a HAPPY LIFE!! 

Now allow yourself to have one!!
