2015-17 - Many times in our lives...

We face situations that we don't expect - broken relationships, betrayal, unfaithfulness, etc., and all we do is sigh. But I noticed that life must go on, and all our burdens must be unloaded through forgiveness - forgiveness of yourself and forgiveness of others.

I didn't understand my cousin when she told me I should kill all those who do harm to me with kindness. But as I grow older, I realize that dwelling on the past hurts and guilt will not serve me well.

Once I forgave serious offenses, I noticed that I couldn't forget them but every time I remembered them, I smiled. There are no more pains brought just by the thought of them.

After all, life is good. Despite of all the hardships, pains, and difficulties life teaches me to be strong in facing any adversity while at the same time makes me compassionate to those who suffer.

2015-16 - It's all there. It's always been there...

Inside OURSELVES...

We seek, and we look for answers, for direction, for something to believe in... something REAL... something we "know" - we sense, we feel - is real.

Feelings are our power-packs; and only because they hold our individual sources of energy. They hold our pure energy - our raw energy. They hold our magnetism and our power.

A goal, a desire, a need, is about energy that's already inside us. However that energy makes us "feel", is what will pull, or attract our desires to us.

All we have to do is "feel" it.

This is the power "in the need".

Flow with the energy, and let our thoughts evolve from there. Let it be what it exists to be from the start.

2015-15 - A Great Future...

Think ahead, act ahead, and you'll get ahead. Consider your future consequences right now, while you are in a position to determine what those consequences will be.

A small action today can have a big influence a year from now, or five years from now. Use each day as an opportunity to make a better future for yourself.

Focus on the long-term value of each situation. The best opportunities are often hidden in plain sight behind the time required for their fulfillment.

Look ahead, plan ahead, live ahead, and put yourself ahead. A great future is yours to create right now.

The secret of getting ahead is getting started.

2015-14 - Success...

Success is not a secret. Success is a direction, a process, and a way of life.

You can be successful right now. Simply turn your focus, your awareness, your thoughts and actions in a positive, meaningful direction. Success is the journey, and not merely the end of the road. Every moment is your opportunity to live the success you seek.

Dream without limits, and act on those dreams. Live without excuses or apologies, and with a persistent, driving desire to make a difference.

Success is a way of life. Choose that way right now, and in every moment of every day.

~ Ralph Marston




If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself.

~ Henry Ford
