Don't be afraid to be yourself. Don't be scared to do what you love to do. A lot of us have set our default settings to self-criticism. I used to do it so often I didn't know I was even doing it. Criticizing a picture or a thought you had...let alone an action or interaction....insults [...]
When you find yourself heading to negative town you can FEEL it. That's the key here...you always feel yourself start to tense up, worry, doubt, fear and panic. Then it begins to spiral and instigate you to go deeper into that questioning and pondering of "what if" and "uh oh". It's easy to feed into [...]
Can you find some comfort in knowing that feelings only emerge when they're ready to release? I mean anything from fear, sadness, anger, resentment, pain, bitterness, jealousy - when it comes up...it's ready to go and that is the very reason you are feeling it. It was divinely TRIGGERED in order to be released. [...]
God is using you. Yes...whether you asked him to or not. God is placing you in places and in front of people for a purpose. God is directing your steps and showing you the way...the way back to peace, love and truth. That way is from within. I wish I had known this when I [...]
They say you're supposed to play the hand you're dealt...no matter what that hand looks like and that's because the hand you're dealt is the hand you need to have. It's the hand you're meant to have.

Your worth doesn't change because others can't get in agreeance with it. Your value doesn't sway because someone might disagree. The only thing that matters is what YOU think about YOU. That's it. Nothing else matters. Nothing changes. The only one who decides if something changes is YOU. My Pastor spoke on this in church [...]
You know what you need to do. You know what's best for you. But...do you know what is clouding you from that truth? Your fears. You know why your fears are still lingering? Because you won't let them go. They're just old sh*t that hasn't left your subconscious. The old sh*t wants to get out...and [...]
The way your life is unfolding is deliberate. The timing, sequence, people you meet and speak with are ALL deliberate. You're speaking to the right ones at the right time. You're doing the right things at the right time. You're meeting the right ones at the right time. You're even not speaking to the right [...]
Sometimes all it takes is one thought to change our entire mind about a situation. All it takes is one realization that clicks within us for everything to change. Isn't that empowering? It might also be frustrating because you might be thinking, "How do I find that thought?" Well I'm going to tell you right [...]
Sometimes you just need days that put it all in perspective for you. Today is that day. While lying in bed this morning I was thinking about perspective and how we can change our minds to see situations, people and/or circumstances from a higher point of view. This is a topic I always come back [...]
