Imaginary Conversations
Do you have conversations in your head? Of course you do! We are talking to ourselves all the time. Just like the conversations you have with other people, make sure your self-talk is worth listening to…
As The Wind Blows…
Is your mood changed by things that happen to you? I believe all of us are to some extent. When something good comes along, we feel a moment of happiness.
Life will always be unpredictable. It is our responsibility to ensure we don’t allow the unknowns in life to set our mood. If we do, our emotions will feel like a rollercoaster. Up sometimes, down the other.
Our Creator gave us free will over one thing: our attitude. Let’s keep ours focused on our one true north. The unknown events of our lives will keep coming, but our attitude about how we adapt and handle them doesn’t have to change…
Mistaken Identity
All of us have a past, and we have a list of missteps we have taken. Hopefully we have learned and grown from our mistakes, and we have changed.

We are living in a culture that places value in our social status, our wealth, how much “stuff” we possess, and our position in life. Those things are hollow. They will pass away, but our name lives on. Create a legacy that brings value and honor to your name, not your stuff…
Opposition
Albert Einstein once wrote, “Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds.”
Plenty of people stand ready to throw cold water on your dreams. It’s your life. You can choose to listen to the naysayers or to your inner voice, the voice that encourages you to pursue your destiny. Expect opposition, but don’t give in.
Outlook
How do you envision your future? Are you looking through a lens of optimism or fear?
Fear limits you. It prevents you from taking chances and fulfilling your dreams. Faith breeds self-confidence. As your confidence grows, the challenges you face will be met with the knowledge you will overcome them. And thrive…
Exceptions
There are exceptions to most rules. It’s probably okay to exceed the speed limit when you have an emergency and must get medical attention.
There is no exception for lying. When you tell the truth, you don’t have to worry about what you told anyone. This simple act will keep the right people in your sphere, and bring you peace…
