There is a difference between listening to someone and hearing them. Listening takes effort and energy. But a wise person listens more than he speaks…#heart #listen #silent #wisdom #vibes #culture

Have you ever gotten an idea so good it gnaws at you to proceed with it? I often wonder how many people this has happened to, but fear held them back. Be bold in the pursuit of your dreams…#heart #dreams #ideas #purpose #inspiration #motivation

Today’s media wants to divide us, to keep us focused on our differences. Don’t fall for it. We have far more in common than we are different. Let me ask you, have you ever experienced love, compassion, hatred, pain, happiness or sadness? So has everyone else. Let’s focus on what unites us, not our differences…#heart #purpose #love #pain #happiness #sadness #kindnessmatters

Work hard. Stay humble. Let your results speak for themselves…#heart #work #humility #outcomes

Life isn’t easy, nor will life ever be fair. But there are endless opportunities offered for us to grow ourselves mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. Growth isn’t easy, either, but it’s so worthwhile. The only losers in life are people who quit on themselves. Keep going…#heart #purpose #faith #believe #growth

Follow your calling. It was placed in your heart by God, with your specific gifts in mind. It won’t be easy. But you will succeed if you keep going…#heart #purpose #calling #gifts

This week’s short video is on forgiveness…

Today’s culture is a “look at me” environment. But if you strip away the veneer of whatever people see, what’s left? Let your character show. Be the best version of yourself…#heart #life #culture

We are living in a culture where opinions are taken as facts. Use your mind to discern the difference. Connect with others rather than engaging in meaningless arguments. Rise above, and bring someone with you…#heart #culture #facts #opinions #politics

Forgiving someone who has harmed you is powerful. Forgiveness allows you to release demons lurking in your soul, demons that bring more harm to you than to your offender. You see, forgiveness is for you.

And speaking of you, take time to forgive yourself. Forgive yourself for being judgmental, for laziness, for being rude when you are in a hurry, for anything you feel bad about. Then move forward and be better…#heart #forgiveness #gratitude #loveyourself #live #love #bebest
