2008 may have been a great year... or a not so great year. It may, at this point, seem like a year of many losses... or a year of many gains. Whatever kind of year it's been for you, ask yourself one question: What do I deserve? Too many people sit back and let life happen to them. What they don't realize is that, in every circumstance, in every experience, you have the power to choose. Your obstacles can always become your opportunities. In fact, that's what they truly are but if you spend all your time in worry, doubt or fear, you're taking your mental energy and using it to keep yourself stuck where you are when you could be focusing on the amazing power you have to get up, to step out, and to get exactly what you want.
Why do people stay stuck? There are so many reasons but the one I want to talk about today is this one: Some people are not willing to do what it takes, to stay in the game for the long haul, to persevere no matter what. Who said your path would be easy? Who said your path would only have roses and happy people in it? No one. So when the first obstacle comes and knocks you off your feet or you hear the first no in your business or you lose the relationship you thought would be there forever, you feel taken for a loop. You fee trapped in a situation that you never thought would be you. You feel lost and, sometimes, you feel helpless. Who's choosing to feel that way?
The bottom line is this: anything you've lost in 2008, anything that's happened that's thrown you for a loop in 2008, you can get back... AND THEN SOME! It's about what you think, what you believe, and what you do. Remember: you'll know how someone thinks, not by what they say but by what they do. You don't have to take people's word for it. You don't have to take your own word for it. Your affirmations are great but what you REALLY believe will come through by what you choose to DO. Make the choice today that 2009 is going to be the year that, whatever you lost, whatever you left, whatever you feel is missing in your life, YOU TAKE IT BACK! YOU CAN DO IT!

Take It Back!

The Beauty of You
Tis' the season for giving. What have you given to yourself for being perfect just the way you are? Have you serenaded yourself? Have you looked in the mirror and said, out loud, "I love you just the way you are!" What do you tell yourself when nobody's around? Are they words of love or words of fear?
The biggest thing you'll ever want to learn is not how to be a better person but how to be a more loving person and you don't learn that by loving OTHER people more; you have to start within and the only way to truly understand what it means to love more is to have more love to love with. There's only one way to get more love and it's by giving more love to yourself.
When you say things like "I'm not good at that" or "I always mess up" or "I'm a clutz" or "I've never been good with money" what you're really saying is "I'm not good enough." And that's a lie.
The bigger lie? That who you are has to change in order for you to be acceptable, especially to you. You don't have to lose another pound, get paid one single dollar more, clean the house any better, or do anything to deserve more. Right now, right where you are, you deserve the best.
There's no ifs, ands, or whens to that. You are magnificent! You are brave! You are astounding! You are and it's about time you started giving back to yourself by calling you by your true name. God operates in you and through you. You couldn't be half the negative things you say to yourself if you knew just how divine you truly are.
Tis the season to love yourself more. Look in the mirror today and give yourself a big hug and kiss! You deserve it!

What is your dream?
What is your dream?
Are you living it?
What is your passion?
Are you pursuing it?
What's holding you back?
Have you let go of it?
Isn't it time you lived every day to its highest level?
We forget that our dreams are ours. They can't be orphaned, abandoned or lost. They were conceived within us, born within us and, if we never actualize them, they die with us. Your most important contribution to the world isn't what you sacrifice; it's what you offer. It isn't about what you do; it's about how you live your life.
Action is only powerful if passion and purpose are behind it and if faith is fueling the engine. You become only what you believe you CAN become.

Make it Count!
Life is too short to half do ANYTHING! If you're going to take a step in life, any step, MAKE IT COUNT! Do it with purpose, passion, expecting great results. Your life can be so much more than it is right now and, contrary to popular belief, it's not a recipe of you + more money + more time = a better life. The equation looks more like this:
Your beliefs + your thoughts + your actions + your perseverance + your passion = AMAZING RESULTS.
A life well lived is not one where you've saved yourself from pain. It's a life where you've transformed pain into peace by knowing the one thing that remains true in ANY life situation: You can handle it.
We never get more than we can bare. In every problem is the wherewithal for its overcoming. If you don't believe me, take any one problem you're having right now and spend 30 minutes LOOKING for solutions (not problems). You'll find that I'm right.
Today is the day you've got. Make it count!
