Jesus said, “Love your neighbor as you love yourself.” Sounds easy, right? But some people can be downright difficult to treat kindly.
I have to ask myself, am I one of those people? Am I stubborn, ill-tempered or rude? If the answer is yes, then I need to work on myself. We will treat others in the way we love ourselves.
A healthy self-acceptance will be reflected by our words and our actions. Take inventory, and corrective action if necessary…
Let’s face it, people love to gossip. Gossip is wrong on every level.
Since you are speaking to others daily, why not talk about things that enrich their lives? Speak from your heart. Spread kindness, compassion, encouragement and hope. In fact, be a super spreader…
Today, Elon Musk is a constant news item. People like Musk, Einstein and many others see the world through a different lens.
We have the same ability. When you think of any situation, see it from different perspectives. Ask yourself, “what if we tried it this way?” Your mind will expand and your worldview will be enhanced…
We live in an imperfect world, where failures, frustrations and setbacks come our way. It seems like every time we get our lives together we only get knocked down again.
That’s okay. No matter what you see on social media, everyone has struggles. The most perfect-looking people are dealing with stuff we don’t know about. It’s important to remember, we are in this beautiful life together. Encourage others. Strengthen them. And when you find yourself in a battle, keep going, no matter what…
What did you think when you saw the title of the blog? Maybe you pictured someone who is in great physical shape. Perhaps you thought of yourself in the gym.
Fitness is more than just the physical. We must exercise mentally, emotionally and spiritually as well. The more we work at it, the stronger we became in all those areas. Take care of yourself so the best version of you shines through…
I’m impatient. We live in what I call a “FedEx Society” where we want it now. I want it yesterday. Life doesn’t work instantly. It takes time to build a home, grow tomatoes or raise children.
Slow down a little. Invest time in what you are involved in. Live with purpose, not impatience…
There is goodness all around us. Sometimes it seems hard to find because the crazies get a lot of attention, but goodness is everywhere.
If you aren’t witnessing good, then I encourage you to take it upon yourself to do good. Do something for someone who can never repay you. Be good…
Being content gives you peace. It doesn’t mean you are devoid of ambition or drive. Not at all. Contentment means you are grateful for all the good in your life. You aren’t taking anything for granted.
I’m more ambitious now than I have ever been. But if I don’t accomplish anything else, I’m content with that…
We live in a culture that says, “look at me!” Much of what we see is hollow, shallow and meaningless.
Quiet confidence is attractive. There’s no need to call attention to yourself because you have a bigger calling.
Work hard. Stay humble. Believe in yourself and be confident…
There is a fire that burns inside of me. A drive to spread encouragement, strength and hope to a world in desperate need of it.
You have a fire inside, too. Find yours…
