This is such a powerful quote, especially in today’s world. It doesn’t seem that “doing the right thing” is as respected as it once was. Fear would tell you to follow the crowd and just blend in. Doing what’s right tells you to stand out and up for someone or something. I do know this,Continue reading “DOING WHAT’S RIGHT”

THE DECISION
Are you a decisive person? I am! Making decisions comes easily for me. However, I do understand that not everyone is wired that way. So many people get mired down in the process, trying to make the perfect decision. That’s why I love this quote from Amelia Earhart. She encourages us to make a decisionContinue reading “THE DECISION”
SOMETHING ABOUT EXCUSES
Do you ever find yourself explaining your actions and realize that it’s nothing but an excuse. I do this, you do this, we all do this. However, it is a success stealer. We must hold ourselves and others accountable for what we do and what we don’t do.

When you see yourself as having value, worth and purpose, then others will see that as well. Don’t expect others to see youContinue reading “BELIEVE IN YOURSELF”
FRIENDSHIPS
There is nothing better than a friendship that develops organically from a common experience. It is a beautiful thing to find that you are not alone in your experience of life. To share common ground with another is the birthing of friendship.

INTELLIGENT MAN vs. WISE MAN
Do you believe everything you hear? Any one point of view seems good until the other side has an opportunity to present their position. In today’s fast paced, social media, agenda driven world, it is a very wise thing to consider the source and use both skillful and Godly wisdom to find the truth.
BEING ROOTED
Roots come in many forms. I think the most important are our foundational roots …. what you believe in. When your faith is strong and you believe in your value and worth, there is no storm that you can’t withstand. Just “be brave”!
