Hopeful Reminders

Simple, yet profound words, by Henry David Thoreau.

Our hearts lead us to so many paths. They help to decide our careers, who to marry, who to friend, where to live and shape who we become. They allow us to feel both pain and joy and take us on this wonderful journey of life. Some say lead with your mind. Friends what do you think? Heart? Mind? Both? Go……..!!

We spend our lives chasing people, situations, approval, status and validation. We waste our time and energy on approval of others. Why don’t we spend our precious time validating ourselves. You are enough! Don’t just say it. Believe it!!

Depression research indicates that keeping your hands busy helps to improve mood.

Many people struggle to talk openly about their feelings especially their hurt. But I have found both in my personal life and professionally that writing and journaling can help us make sense of the chaos that can attack our minds.

Knowing and understanding our feelings is an important step into our inner self. Asking “How do I feel right now” can start that process. Try it.

In losing we really win. We win lessons, we win insight, we win wisdom, we win strength. In winning we receive the validation of our sacrifices and effort. So don’t be afraid of either.

Without challenges we don’t learn, we don’t recognize our own strength or know how to push ourselves. Don’t be afraid of challenges, see them as opportunities for growth.

Self love is the most challenging form of love we all experience. It is possible. Call today!!

Change is possible. Reach for it!
