I am powerful. I was always looking outside myself for strength and confidence, but it comes from within. It is there all the time. -Anna Freud There's nothing more attractive than confidence, once you see your own beauty, so will everyone else!

In all that you do, have fun! This is  so important because if you are having fun, you will enjoy what you do. If you enjoy what you do, you will learn and grow from it. If you learn and grow from it you will improve and exceed. If you improve and exceed...you will inevitably succeed!

When you find yourself stressed, ask yourself one question: Will this matter five years from now? If yes, then do something about the situation. If no, then let it go." - Catherine Pulsifer To "let go" does not mean to stop caring, it means I can't do it for someone else. To "let go" is not to cut myself off, it's the realization I can't control another. To "let go" is not to enable, but to allow learning from natural consequences. To "let go" is to admit powerlessness, which means the outcome is not in my hands. To "let go" is not to try to change or blame another, it's to make the most of myself. To "let go" is not to care for, but to care about. To "let go" is not to fix, but to be supportive. To "let go" is not to judge, but to allow another to be a human being.

When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. — Harriet Beecher Stowe

Sometime our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being. Each of us owes deepest thanks to those who have rekindled this light. – Albert Scheitzer Lives change. People change. How and why are less important than the fact that they change. Being thankful is not simply something we say, it's something we do. You help one person, and pretty soon they're helping someone else. You never know how many people you've touched just by reaching out to one. Practice random acts of kindness, daily. Approach everything you do and everything you have with an attitude of gratitude. Start now. Make today great!

The loudest and most influential voice you hear is your own inner voice, your self critic. It can work for you or against you, depending on the messages you allow. - Keith Harrell The most important words you utter are the ones you say to yourself, about yourself, when you are by yourself. Choose your thoughts carefully. Make today a great day!
