Don't allow pressure from external sources to sway you from what brews in your heart. Pressure is always going to exist. It's going to come when you don't want it, need it or especially when you least expect it. When it hits you, stop and breathe! Refocus on what's within you. Don't let external factors [...]
When you think the worst, you block your perception from seeing the best. You also put out a negative energy and will draw in other negative factors, circumstances and people. The saying goes that when you look for something, you will find it. So if you're looking for something to be wrong, you are putting [...]
We don't always get what we want, but we do always get what we need. The good news is that usually by the time you receive it, you realize you want it. You realize that it far surpasses what you THOUGHT you had wanted. So when you find yourself dwelling and doubting - losing your [...]
It's a good time to stop worrying and just go with the flow. You can't control any outcome no matter how hard you try. You can't control what is meant to happen. Just let it go, let it all go. The fear, the worry, the anxiety - release it and stay present in the moments. [...]

We all have those days where every single thing seems to annoy us. We get upset or bothered by what people say or do and we really don't know why. I'm not about to try to explain why this happens because quite frankly I don't know. But what I do know is that if you [...]
Everything begins somewhere. If life was meant to flash by without lessons and connections, then it would. But here's the truth - each day we wake up we're meant to experience fully with our eyes wide open. The people we pass or speak to and connect with - they've been sent to us that day [...]

We can be our own worst enemies OR we can be our own best friends? It's really your choice which you choose to be. I'm really hard on myself - harder than anyone else has or will ever be on me. That's my nature and I know that about myself so being aware of it [...]
