Say Something

To speak and to speak well are two things.  

A fool may talk, but a wise man speaks.  

~Ben Jonson

Say Something

Many times we decide not to say the things we know we need to or even more important what we ought to. We hold back on what we are feeling. We may fumble to try and find the right words and so we end up not saying anything at all. By not speaking though, we run the risk of losing out on opportunities or even on people. The price we pay for not saying something may make all the difference. Don't let this year pass without saying what needs to be said and by doing what needs to be done.

Blocking

You block your dream when you allow 

your fear to grow bigger than your faith.  

~Mary Manin Morrissey

Blocking
No more excuses, it's time to block everything and everyone that doesn't bring positive energy and joy into your space. Stop making it okay to put yourself in an environment where you compromise your values, your feelings and most importantly your precious time. It's okay to say no, to give your time to only that which brings you joy and to block all of that which does not bring you to a better place.

Enjoy

Do not take life too seriously.  

You will never get out of it alive.  

~Elbert Hubbard

Enjoy
Sometimes we get overwhelmed by being pulled in several directions that we forget to just enjoy the moment, the people and the possibilities of each day. Life, although it can seem stressful at times, is not meant to be that serious.  Remember to stop, laugh, enjoy the moment and never fight just going with the flow!

Gifts

Christmas gift suggestions: To your enemy, forgiveness. To an opponent, tolerance. To a friend, your heart. To a customer, service. To all, charity. To every child, a good example. To yourself, respect.  

~Oren Arnold

Gifts
This is the time of year that we truly think about other people.  What they need, what they could use or what they want.  Our goal is to put a smile and some warm cheer into that person's life and to make sure they know that they are thought about and loved.  While you exchange gifts throughout this season, don't forget to give the most important gifts to yourself as well:

1. Peace - stay calm and centered. Don't allow yourself to get stressed even when others may be getting undone around you. Stay in that state of peace.

2. Love - in everything you do, make sure it's out of love.  Love can heal as long as you lead with that intention in every way.

3. Joy - we are meant to have some fun here so kick up your feet and enjoy everything around you, oh and everyone too!

4. Harmony - keep your space a no-drama zone.  There is no time for gossip and drama.  Cut it off quickly when it happens.  Stay in a place of true harmony.  There is only room for that.

5. Hope - always believe that there is something bigger and better waiting for you ~ because there is!

6. Believe - never doubt your power, your intentions and what you can accomplish.  

7. Family - keep your loved ones close and use them for support.  They can and are your biggest cheering section.

8. Faith - never let doubt creep in for even one second that something bigger than you is at work.  When you can sit back, let go and enjoy the ride of life your world will open up tenfold.

9. Dream - never lose hope or sight of living your dream.  That's what you were put here to do.

10. Cherish - take notice and appreciate all that is around you, be it family, friends, pets or precious things.  

11. Wish - surround yourself with positive thoughts and positive outcomes will follow.

12. Noel - take time to celebrate the holiday but remember to celebrate every day as though it was a holiday!
