Speak good words, kind words,
Words of wisdom, words of encouragement.
Like gentle rain upon a dormant field.
Eventually, they will coax the seeds
Beneath the soil to life.

Power of Peace
March 23rd, 2012
Put the power of peace into your thoughts. Feel the power of
Peace throughout your life.
When your thoughts are focused on conflict, those thoughts
Are in conflict with each other. That drains their power and
Effectiveness away.
Instead of looking for excuses to be in conflict, think of
Reasons to be at peace. Instead of always striving to get an
Advantage, allow the ultimate advantage of peace to easily
And naturally flow from your center.
Your true purpose is not in conflict with anything. Though
You will always face challenges, you never have to fight.
For you can meet those challenges with love and grace and
The positive power of peaceful purpose. Instead of getting
Caught up in the conflict, with the power of peace you can
Find a positive way to successfully move beyond it.
No one can take peace away from you when you step forward
And offer it first. Keep peace in your thoughts, and put
Real, meaningful power in your life.
~~Ralph Marston
Room For Improvement
March 23rd, 2012
Although life is far from perfect, it is completely abundant and very much worth every moment of living. Yes, there are always things that could be improved, and that is a blessing in itself. For it means that you are alive and able to make things happen. It means that there is always the option of reaching ever higher. There is always room for improvement, and that means there is always room to grow. Weaknesses can be transformed into strengths, and liabilities can be changed into assets.

Remember That Forgiveness Is Primarily For YOU
March 23rd, 2012
Grudges take up brain capacity and prevent us from performing at our very best. What we focus our minds upon grows; this is true of hatred too. Therefore, it is impossible to truly achieve great things for ourselves when we have a lot of our energetic capacity tied up in negativity. Read the rest of this entry »

LAUGHING DURING TOUGH TIMES

Laughter and tears are part of living. But do you find enough time for
laughter? I am not asking if you experience lots of good times. Of

Problems in Life
February 25th, 2012
If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as
A nail.
~Abraham Maslow
************************************************
When we can move away, or detach from our problems, it’s easier to see
That often we are using inappropriate tools to solve our
Problems. But it can be difficult to detach when we are hooked into a
Situation.
Maintaining a balanced view isn’t possible when our nose is pressed
Right up against our problem. We indulge in crisis thinking and crisis
Thinking, like a hammer, flattens everything.
We can resolve to remember that every problem is an opportunity for
Growth and we will search for tools suited for our growth.
Disappointments of the Past

Break Destructive Habits
February 25th, 2012
“Change the way you think and you’ll change the way you feel.”
Breaking the habit of negative thinking and replacing it with an “I can and I will” attitude is the change called for by inner confidence.
Negative thinking can be so interwoven in the fabric of whom you are that it is natural to assume it’s normal. It’s not! Breaking the cycle of negative thinking means you must acknowledge and face your harsh inner critic.
You have strengths, skills and talents. Recognizing and believing in them is what confidence is all about. When you are confident, it’s easy to feel great, because your inner critic becomes your inner champion!
Jane Powell
