Be the Light and Shine; From the Quote of the Week Files; January 25, 2016

BE THE LIGHT AND SHINE

“Let today be the day you embrace your beautiful spirit and shine light for those living in the dark. Light their path so the road traveled will be seen more clearly. You never know how much a simple act of kindness is appreciated if you never try. Be that candle for someone today and shine bright.” 

Amaka Imani Nkosazana, Sweet Destiny

The Power of your Thoughts; From the Quote of the Week Files; January 18, 2016

The Power of your Thoughts

​

​'​

If we understood the power of our thoughts,

we would guard them more closely.

If we understood the awesome power of our words,

we would prefer silence to almost anything negative.

In our thoughts and words we create

our own weaknesses and our own strengths.

Our limitations and joys begin in our hearts.

We can always replace negative with positive.

The mind is everything.  What you think you become.

Yes you Can; From the Quote of the Week Files, January 11, 2016

ASSUME YOU CAN:

Expand your idea of what is possible. Dream and imagine and explore the fertile territory beyond your current assumptions.

Whatever your situation in life may be, you are not confined to it. With imagination, focus, commitment and effort, you can move yourself to an even better, more fulfilling reality.

Beyond the existing horizon of your experience are countless possibilities you have not yet considered. Dare to go where you have not gone before, to see life in new and empowering ways.

There is a very real path to the fulfillment of your deepest, most positive and profound desires. Instead of convincing yourself and others that you can’t get there, open yourself to more possibilities.
If you assume you cannot get there, that very assumption will keep you chained to where you are. Yet when you assume you can, you will.

Beyond your past experience, beyond your current assumptions, are powerful new possibilities. Imagine those possibilities, find positive, sustained energy in them, and bring them gloriously to life.

Ralph Marston

One Word; One Year Exercise

Happy New Year Everybody! Now that 2015 is over it is time to begin the new year with a word(s) (not a resolution) that will serve as a compass on who you want to be or how you want to live.

For 2015 my word was OPA! It served me well and I will miss it. In the past my words have been: Expand, Gratitude, Possibilities, Openness, Memento Mori, Grace and 525,600 (which represents the number of minutes we have in a year).

My guiding light word for the year is Magic and it is my intention to make it a visible part of my everyday life!!!  So let’s make some magic in 2016!

What about you? What will be your word(s) that will guide you through 2016? Please Share!
